Chapter 238 Xiao Yan gets beaten
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Lu Qiniang decided not to get up early and to sleep in.
During the past month and a half of non-stop work, she seemed to have been kept going solely by her belief in money.
Now that I have the money, although I am still excited, I feel like I have relieved my energy and can finally take a good rest.
She doesn't care about anything anymore.
As a result, I didn’t get to sleep in.
As soon as the genius was polished, a lot of people came in from outside.
It turned out that Xiong Da and others had packed their bags early and were going home to celebrate the New Year, so they came to say goodbye to Lu Qiniang.
Snowflakes were falling from the sky and the snow on the ground was already above the ankles.
A group of men, carrying many things on their backs, in their hands and on their shoulders, looked like they were fleeing, but with the joy of a good harvest on their faces. Led by Xiong Da, they knelt together in the snow.
"Qiniang, we are here to kowtow to you and wish you a happy new year!" Xiong Da's loud voice almost sent Lu Qinniang away.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Isn't this shortening my life? Get up, everyone!"
Lu Qiniang hurried to help everyone.
She felt really bad about it, so she distributed the remaining dry food at home to everyone and sent them away.
She leaned against the door, watching the backs of a group of people leaving, and couldn't help but raise her sleeve to wipe the corners of her eyes.
These days are getting better.
Not only did she get better, she also helped so many people get better.
Abandoned mother, you are a useful person!
Lu Qiniang laughed until tears came out.
That’s great.
These days are really exciting.
Now that I've been woken up, it's impossible to go back to sleep.
Daya and her two younger sisters have already cleaned up the house. The windows are spotless, window paper-cuts have been pasted on, all kinds of fried food have been fried, the rat holes have been cleaned out, and all the gifts for the New Year have been arranged.
Lu Qiniang searched for a long time but couldn't find any work, so she took a big broom and swept the snow in the yard.
San Ya was making a snowman in the yard, using a carrot as a nose, which made the donkey bray in anxiety.
Sanya came over with a carrot, skipping and jumping to feed the donkey, muttering as she fed it, "You can't eat my carrots for free, you have to let me ride them, okay?"
"I have to ride it." Yun Ting yawned, stretched lazily and came out of the house, "I'll ride it home tomorrow."
"Isn't your home the Duke's Mansion?" San Ya asked curiously. "Doesn't the Duke's Mansion have donkeys?"
"No, there are horses, but I can't ride them. I can only ride a donkey."
"Then, how about you ride our donkey and I ride your horse?" San Ya said, "I'm not afraid. I can learn."
Lu Qiniang smiled and said, "Buy. After the New Year, we will buy a horse too."
She really disliked seeing Xiao Yan riding a donkey.
Now that we have money, we must give him a horse.
That way she could imagine him leading the Black Armored Army, which would definitely be more impressive than Jiang Xuan riding on a horse.
If I don't wear a shirt -
Bah, what's wrong with her?
Xiao Yan's seduction when he was hot-headed had poisoned her.
No, this is not good.
"San Ya, where's your father?" Lu Qin Niang asked, "Why is he gone so early in the morning?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it either." San Ya said.
"Okay, maybe something happened outside." Lu Qiniang said.
Daya has already started cooking in the kitchen, but Erya is nowhere to be seen.
"Saya, go and wake up your second sister. I have something to tell you." Lu Qiniang said.
"Okay!" San Ya ran in happily.
Yun Ting asked curiously, "Abandoned Mother, what do you want to say? Can I listen?"
"Nothing, I just made some money," Lu Qiniang said, "and I was thinking of sharing the money."
"Share it?" Yun Ting asked puzzledly, "Who will it be shared with?"
"I'll keep some for myself, and divide the rest among the three sisters as dowries." Lu Qinniang said, "I've thought about it. No matter how much money I make in the future, I'll divide it like this so that they know how much dowry they can have when they go out."
Money moves people's hearts.
Even if they are mother and daughter, or sisters, don't test them with money.
If you can calculate the accounts clearly, don't be confused and create resentment in others.
Yun Ting didn't say anything.
Erya came out and heard it, and asked in surprise, "Mom, can you give me some money?"
Very good.
Lu Qiniang glared at her and said, "I'm just letting you know how much dowry I'll give you in the future. Don't even think about getting a single cent. I'll give it to you when we get married."
"If I don't get married, won't I get any money?"
"That's right."
Arya's face fell.
She still has a long time.
I’m so envious of my elder sister, she can fulfill her wish next year.
Alas, her mother hung the pancake too high, so she could only look at it and couldn’t eat it, which made her anxious.
Lu Qiniang gathered her three daughters in the kitchen, and they talked while they worked. Yun Ting sat on the doorstep, teasing Ah Huang while listening to their movements.
Lu Qinniang said, "We made a lot of money this time. Not counting the small change we made before, we now have a total of 12,000 taels. Your father and I both contributed to this. And your father has nothing right now. He will start his own business next year and will need money everywhere, so I thought that we should split the 12,000 taels in half each—"
Yun Ting muttered softly, "Is this a separation of property?"
Xiao Yan, please come back quickly.
1
When you come back, to your great surprise, you are kicked out!
Surprise or not? Unexpected or not?
Let’s see what you can do!
"I won't keep my six thousand taels of silver this time, because I can make money in the future. When I make money, I'll keep more. I'll be impartial to you three sisters and save two thousand taels for each of you as dowries. I'll give it to you when you get married. You can buy things or keep them in the bottom of your box as you wish."
"Mother, I only want one thousand taels of silver," Erya said. "The remaining one thousand taels, my share, will be left for your retirement. But could you please give me five hundred taels first? Five hundred taels will do!"
"You wish." Lu Qiniang said, "If we don't get married, no one can touch this money."
"Then I might as well find someone, have a fake marriage with him, and get the dowry out first." Erya said with a pout.
Lu Qiniang said angrily, "Your head is always full of nonsense."
Erya looked depressed.
As they were talking, Xiao Yan came back.
But his face was gloomy, and on his left cheek, there was a "Five Finger Mountain".
"What happened?" Lu Qiniang asked in shock, "Why did he get beaten? Who is this?"
Don't hit people in the face. It's New Year's Day, and anyone who hits others is really lacking in virtue.
