"Mom, don't worry. I gave the manuscript to Dong Xishan yesterday." Qian Chunhua said, "He said it's well written. After the bookstore publishes it, I'll get money every month."
Qian Chunhua spent three months writing a book of short stories.
The plot was inspired by the famous TV series "The Legend of the New Lady" before she traveled through time, but the part involving the court was deleted because she didn't want to bring trouble to herself.
Because she wrote with a brush, Qian Chunhua's progress was much slower. She didn't dare to write too well for fear of arousing suspicion from the Dong family.
Qian Qi smiled and said, "No matter how much money you have, you have to save it. Qingsong Qingfeng will need a lot of money to take the imperial examination in the future.
Not only that, you also have to save money for them to buy a house, prepare for them to marry a wife in the future, and prepare a dowry for Xiaoling."
Qian Qi carefully calculated the accounts for his daughter and told her not to spend the money lavishly.
After settling the bill, Qian Li saw that his daughter didn't seem to be paying attention, and said with deep concern, "You, please don't take it lightly.
Qingsong is nine years old now. He can start dating when he is around fifteen years old. You must not delay the child.
For example, in Xingshan, we were delayed by our families. "
At this point, Qian Li sighed again. If they moved to the capital, their lives would be much better than in the village.
My son also has work to do and can earn two taels of silver every month.
My daughter is writing storybooks and making some money.
I still have one thousand two silver notes in my hand.
Apart from my son's marriage, I have no other worries.
It's a pity that I know fewer people in the city than in the village. Where can I find a girl to date?
"Mom, don't worry, my brother is still young."
A seventeen-year-old teenager, if he had traveled through time, he would still be a high school student. How could he get married so early?
"Why aren't you anxious? You got married at the age of 18." Qian Li was a little anxious.
"Okay, okay, it's time to find a wife." Qian Chunhua had no choice but to say perfunctorily.
"By the way, Madam Dong's 50th birthday is in about a month, don't forget it," Qian Li reminded.
After they moved to the capital, the only family they interacted with was the Dong family.
Qian Li later went to the Dong residence alone several times, and it was always Madam Dong who sent Madam Wu to pick her up. She still had a good relationship with the old lady.
"Mom, just relax. I remember it." Qian Chunhua replied with a smile. This was the third time his mother reminded him.
Dong Mansion, the first draft of the storybook written by Qian Chunhua is now in Guan Yueru's hands.
From yesterday till now, she has stayed up all night to finish reading it, and now with red eyes she is taking the manuscript to Old Madam Dong.
"Mom, this is Sister Chunhua's storybook."
In the warm room, Old Madam Dong had just woken up from her nap.
"Quick..., let me see it..." Old Madam Dong was feeling bored.
After receiving the manuscript, Mrs. Dong saw her daughter-in-law's red eyes and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Why are you crying? Did someone irritate you?"
Guan Yueru smiled embarrassedly and shook her head, "No, it's this storybook, it's so touching. I..."
Guan Yueru felt embarrassed as she spoke.
I'm already an adult, but I can still cry while reading storybooks.
As long as the couple is fine, the old lady is relieved. At the same time, it also makes her more curious about the dialogue book and how touching it is.
"Mother, I have something else to ask you." Guan Yueru asked, "For your 50th birthday, will you hold the banquet in the back garden or at a farm in the suburbs?"
There is a natural hot spring in a village outside the city. Although the weather is starting to get warmer, the temperature is not high, so it is just right for soaking in the hot spring. However, the amount of water in the hot spring is not as high as in previous years.
Madam Dong thought for a moment and said, "Don't bother. Let's do it in the back garden of the mansion. If there is a shortage of supplies, it's not easy to make a big fuss."
"My daughter-in-law knows."
"My uncle Shan and his second uncle are coming, and Nianmei is coming back too. Several other members of the clan have written to me and said they will come to celebrate my birthday. Roughly speaking, there will be about five tables of people.
If we include Chunhua's family, seven tables will be enough for our family. Let's have ten tables. That will definitely be enough."
"Okay..." Guan Yueru agreed.
"Remember, don't be extravagant or wasteful." Old Madam Dong reminded again.
Although life in the capital city was bearable, there were also many refugees outside the capital city. The situation was even worse in other places, with many people having nothing to eat or drink.
At this time, if we hold a Japanese banquet with great fanfare, wouldn't that just attract hatred?
Madam Dong is not that stupid...
The Dong family is not that stupid.
