Chapter 51 Calculation
Chapter 52 Calculation
That night, Wu Xuezheng gathered all the families and told everyone that Sheng Xi was going to build a house.

When everyone heard that there was money to be made, they all scrambled for the spot, including the leper from before.It's just that the village chief didn't choose him. Instead, he picked twenty strong and capable young men and sent those who were not selected back to their homes.

Among them was Sheng Laosan.

It wasn't Wu Xuezheng who took the initiative to call someone, but Sheng Laosan happened to be at that house when the village chief called someone. Hearing the news about making money, he came with him.

But he didn't expect that the payer would be Sheng Xi.

Sheng Laosan will definitely not help Sheng Xi with work. Although he is reluctant to give up twenty cents a day, he has no face for the time being due to the quarrel between the two families.But he was reluctant to part with the twenty coins, so after returning home, Sheng Laosan informed Lao Sheng's family about the incident.

Sheng Jin didn't say anything after hearing this, but Sheng Hui sneered first and said, "Third uncle, did you hear it wrong? How could Sheng Xi spend money to build a house like that? Does she have money? Sheng Guangyuan is afraid of selling it again. Isn’t that enough?”

"Sister, have you forgotten that I told you yesterday that those two idiots picked up a wild boar from the mountain?" Sheng Guangyao reminded Sheng Hui.

Sheng Hui frowned, obviously unwilling to believe this fact: "You always lie, who knows whether what you say is true or false?"

"I saw it with my own eyes!" Sheng Guangyao screamed, "You're the one who always lies!"

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Sheng Jin shouted and stopped them: "Shut up! Go back to the house!"

After Sheng Jin spoke, the two of them did not dare to make any more noise no matter how resentful they were. After looking at each other, they turned around and went back to their houses.The children of the third child also ran away.

It was already dark at this time, everyone at home was there, and the atmosphere in the main room was quite good, but because of Sheng Xi building a house, it was now suppressed.

After a while, Bai suddenly said to Sheng Jin, "Master, Hui'er's marriage has been decided, but the dowry is still not enough."

After the words fell, not only Sheng Jin, but also other people in the room looked at Bai, feeling dissatisfied.

Mrs. Bai just pretended not to notice, smoothed her hair, and said again: "Father, mother, you all know that Hui'er is going to marry the accountant of Liu's shop. In the future, she will go to the boss of Liu's shop. , if the dowry we give is too small now, we may be looked down upon by others, and Hui'er will not be able to speak in the Zheng family in the future."

Mrs. Chen knew what her sister-in-law was planning, so she said unhappily: "Sister-in-law, Hui'er's dowry is too small? Half of the father-in-law's money has been put in!"

Mrs. Bai ignored this and just asked Ms. Chen: "Then do you still want to join Guangxian's shop in Liu's shop in the future?"

Chen pursed her lips and said nothing.

Bai Shi snorted with disgust in her heart, but said: "Guangzong is the only one in the family who can read. From now on, all the brothers in the family will point to him. Hui'er is a girl, and now she has the ability to marry a good family. , we can give our family more help in the future. Guangzong still has a few years to go to school, we can’t keep waiting for him, right? We have to think more about the three Guangyao brothers, especially Guangxian.”

Sheng Guangxian and Sheng Guangrong are the sons of Sheng Laosan. One is thirteen this year and the other will be ten years old soon.Neither of them can read. Seeing them like this, the family will definitely not support them anymore.After all, it is too expensive for one person to study. Not to mention Mr. Shu Xiu, the daily pens, inks, paper and inkstones cost a lot of money, and they are still big.

Mrs. Chen knew that her two sons were not up to par. She lowered her eyes and remained silent, but she kept rolling her eyes in her heart.The reason why she agreed to give Sheng Hui such a large dowry was because Bai promised that when Sheng Hui married into the Zheng family, she would find a job for Guang Xian in the shop.

How could Mr. Bai not know Mr. Chen's petty nature?But for the sake of her daughter, she must give the other party some benefits first.

Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes and asked her: "It's not sister-in-law, we are talking about Sheng Xi now. Why are you involved in Hui'er's dowry?"

"Of course it's going to happen." Ms. Bai knew that even if she said that just now, based on how picky her parents-in-law were, it would definitely only go in one ear and out the other, and they would just be heard.

But now that there is an opportunity to enrich her daughter's dowry, why not seize it?
Sheng Jin also looked at her, not understanding what she meant.

So, Mrs. Bai said: "Since Sheng Xi has money, let's borrow some from her. It's not like Hui'er has never borrowed money before. In the future, when Hui'er establishes a foothold in the Zheng family, we will naturally return the money to her. ”

"Sister-in-law, your idea is good, but in other words, Sheng Xi is no longer the same as before. Besides, are you sure that Sheng Xi has that much money?" Chen said.

Sheng Jin also felt that Bai was out of his mind and had to remind him: "Sheng Xi has been expelled from the clan and is no longer a family member to us."

Bai Shi chuckled and said firmly: "It's because Sheng Xi was expelled from the clan that we have to relax at this time. You think she is an orphan, even if she has money in her hands now, she can survive for a few days, but what about the future? ? When the person named Shen dies, will she not be a widow? How can a widow's life be easy? I think she should have learned a lesson in the past few days. We just need to explain this truth to her and take the initiative to give her a step forward. If we don't let her really return to the Sheng family, just say that we do it for her father's sake and don't want her to suffer in the future, and we will always take care of her.

Women know women best, and I predict that she definitely doesn’t want to have a quarrel with us. If we let go first and then let things bridge the gap, wouldn’t the relationship be eased?As for the money, Guangyao hadn't seen it all with his own eyes. Sheng Xi's current ability might be just like the second child. "

"But what if she doesn't believe it?" Sheng Jin said.He has not forgotten the way Sheng Xi looked when she heard that she was expelled from the family tree. Does she really want to come back?She must be eager to be kicked out, right?
"Guangzong will be back in a few days. The worst thing is, let Guangzong go talk to Sheng Xi." Bai said casually.

Sheng Jin opened his mouth, rolled his eyes a few times and said nothing.Bai reminded him that although Sheng Xi was stupid, he did admire his cousin very much.

Seeing that her man was starting to think about it, Mrs. Bai then looked at her father-in-law and mother-in-law: "So, father and mother, in order for our children to be successful in the future, we all have to work together on this matter. Before Guangzong comes back, We need to stabilize Sheng Xi first."

Old Man Sheng and Old Mrs. Sheng looked at each other and said after a while: "Listen to the boss, we will do whatever the boss wants to do."

This is in agreement with Bai's approach.

Everyone looked at Sheng Jin.

After a moment of silence, Sheng Jin suddenly asked Sheng Lao San: "Lao San, are you sure the village chief said that Sheng Xi is going to build a big house like San Jin's?"

Sheng Laosan nodded: "Sure! Can this matter be false? Everyone present was shocked for a long time when they heard it!"

Sheng Jin paced for a moment, and when he looked up again, he said to Bai, "Go and talk to Hui'er. Even if you can't borrow money from Sheng Xi now, you should ask her to postpone building a house. At least until Guangzong comes back. .”
