Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 71
Du Jincheng is the eldest grandson of the eldest house, and after being taught by Du Chensheng and Du Yunyi's two generations of accountants, he is very successful in his heart.

He whispered: "Mother, I think it's better to ask dad to come in and talk to him about the matter, at least let him have a settlement in his mind. Even if grandfather asks for money, he won't say that second uncle owes gambling debts. He knew that we wouldn't use money to fill holes for Second Uncle, and would find other excuses. If Dad didn't check for a while, he might be relieved, and it would be bad if he regretted it later, and his grandfather would complain if he didn't. "

"Well, I see."

Zhang's family is in business, and he himself is very shrewd.She lowered her head and thought for a while, then listened to the conversation outside, and then she had a plan in her mind.

She stood up, waved to her two sons, motioned them not to follow, and walked out with her skirt in hand.

Mrs. Zhang's status in Du's family was different, she sat to the side and listened to everyone's conversation, but the men didn't care and continued to talk about their topic.

Mrs. Zhang didn't come to listen to the chat. She found a gap in the conversation and interrupted with a smile: "Father, Brother Cheng is 17 years old. It's time to get married. His father-in-law's family also has such a meaning. Yun and I Yi would like to ask your old opinion on when is the best time to get married."

Du Chensheng was very happy when he heard this, and said: "If you don't mention this, I will tell you too. First get married and then start a career. Although Brother Cheng is still studying, let's get married when he is old. As for the time, You can discuss it with Brother Cheng's Yue family, I have no objection."

"Father and mother are always so sensible." Mrs. Zhang put a high hat on Du Chensheng, glanced at Du Yunyi, and said, "Once Cheng Ge'er gets married, the two brothers will definitely not be able to live in the same house. Those in the city The house, as you know, is just the third room, we live in one room, Brother Cheng and his brother live in one room, sister Yun lives in one room, there is no more room. Sister Yun’s marriage has not yet been booked, this The house can't be vacated, Cheng Ge'er can't live in it when he gets married, and he can't live in it when he has a child in the future."

Hearing the meaning of these words, Du Chensheng's expression changed.

The house that Xiao Dafang lives in now was bought by Du Chensheng when Du Yunyi got married.

Zhang's family is considered well-to-do in the city. They have two shops and are engaged in pastry business and silk business.When Du Yunyi married the Zhang family, the Zhang family was not very happy back then, and they disliked the Du family's lack of wealth.Helpless, Mrs. Zhang took a fancy to Du Yunyi's appearance and wanted to marry her.

The old man of the Zhang family was still alive, so he proposed that the Zhang family should not come to the village to serve his in-laws, but live in the city, and the Du family needed to buy a house in the city.

At that time, Du Yuncheng was still studying, spending a lot of money, and the family didn't have enough money.For this marriage, Du Chensheng gritted his teeth, and finally borrowed some foreign debts, and spent 130 taels of silver to buy a small house, which is the place where Du Yunyi's family lives now.

For this matter, the family tightened their belts for several years before paying off the foreign debt.

That house is indeed not big, with only three rooms and a narrow yard.It's just that the location is good, facing the main street, and it is convenient to enter and exit.

"Then how are you doing?" Du Chensheng asked.

Mrs. Zhang smiled: "Now that the water transport has been opened in the county, it has become more lively all of a sudden, and the prices of land and houses are increasing. Father, do you think we should take advantage of the current price increase of the house to sell the house in time, and then How about going to a remote place for a bigger house?"

Du Chensheng's complexion was not very good-looking.

Although he hasn't been to the county much in recent years, he has worked as a bookkeeper in the city for more than [-] years, and there are a few old friends in the city who often come and go.He still understands the situation in the city.

Last year, the court dug a canal to transport grain and tea from the south to the north, and Lishui County was lucky to be in the south-central section of the canal.Ships from south to north pass by here, and there are always people who come up to replenish supplies, and the county prospers because of this.Not only the price of the land near the pier has increased, but also the houses and shops facing the street in the city have increased a lot.

The house that Du Chensheng bought in the city was not completely facing the street, but it was still facing the street.House prices in the whole county are rising, and that house is no exception.

But Du Chensheng knew that Lishui County is not big, and the distance between remote places and places facing the street is not too far, and the difference in housing prices is actually not that big.The most important thing is that there is a tax to be paid for buying and selling houses. In this way, a house facing the street cannot be exchanged for a big house in a remote place.

If you want to change the house, you will have to make up the difference.

It's not for nothing that Du Yunnian has been in the city every day for the past few years. He has been in contact with those people of various religions, and he knows something about the situation in the city.What Du Chensheng thought of, he also thought of.

He asked Du Yunyi: "Brother, have you saved a lot of money over the years?"

His words sounded provocative.

In order to give less money to the family, Du Yunyi often cried poor. When he came back, he would tell his parents how little money he had in his monthly bill, and how much he spent on weekdays; when something happened, he would ask Du Chensheng for money.So as soon as Du Yunnian said this, Du Chensheng looked at his eldest son with extremely complicated eyes.

Although Du Yunyi didn't know what his wife meant by saying that, but he was familiar with crying poor, so he smiled bitterly immediately: "Where do I have money? How much monthly money do I usually have, and how much I take home, it's not like Dad doesn't know."

Mrs. Zhang interjected next to him: "That's it. Dad knows it when he thinks about it. My dad always loves Brother Cheng. Knowing that he is going to get married and knowing our difficulties, he said that he helped us with the money we needed to change the house. Think of it as giving Cheng Geer the money that will accompany you when you get married."

Hearing this, Du Chensheng frowned.

He doesn't believe Mrs. Zhang's words.

Over the years, Mrs. Zhang always said that her natal family has helped her a lot, and the clothes of the children in the family seem to be arranged by the second elder of the Zhang family. After all, the Zhang family has a silk shop, and it is reasonable to make clothes for the grandson and granddaughter.

But Du Yunyi of the Zhang family has also been in contact with her many times. He didn't see how generous the Zhang family was, and he didn't seem to treat Zhang's married daughter very well.The most important thing is that although the Zhang family runs a pastry shop and silk satin shop in the city, the business is not very good. How much money can they make in a year is quite a lot. How can it be used to make up for the married daughter?
Mrs. Zhang also has brothers, seven or eight nephews and nieces, and the whole family has more than ten members.The Zhang family's own place is not generous, so how could it be possible to spend money to change the house for the Zhang family?

Mrs. Yao came in with a pig's head, and saw Mrs. Zhang sitting there in a serious manner, talking to a few men, and the talk was about changing houses, so she also stayed in the right place.

Hearing these words at this time, she couldn't help interjecting and asked: "Then after changing the house, whose name is written in that house?"
