Chapter 159
At noon, Yan Shi didn't come back for dinner, so Gu Jiujiu simply cooked some food for Sister Yuan and the others.

When it was getting dark, Yan Shi came back.

Gu Jiujiu looked at Yan Shi, and asked a little puzzled: "Mother, Sister Yuan said that you were called to the old house by the grandmother, I don't know, what's the matter with the grandmother telling you to go?"

"It's not your little aunt's business." Yan looked at Gu Jiujiu, "The scholar came to Gu's house to ask for money, and after being kicked out by your grandfather, he didn't care that your little aunt was still pregnant with his child. Unexpectedly, she married a daughter-in-law not long after. Your little aunt is also a fool. She knew that the scholar had married a daughter-in-law, and she even made a fuss about marrying him. You are too arrogant, so you entrusted the matchmaker in the village to do it for you. My aunt told me about a marriage. Although I asked your aunt to do a sequel, that man is a down-to-earth and hard-working man, and his family life is well-off. If your little aunt married that man, she would definitely not be able to afford food and clothing. Without her."

After Yan finished speaking, Gu Jiujiu secretly thought that since her little aunt was determined to follow the scholar surnamed Wang, she would definitely not agree to this marriage.

Sure enough, her guess was not wrong at all. Yan Shi paused and looked at her and continued: "Your little aunt knows that your grandfather told her about a marriage, and she doesn't nod at anything. Your grandma has no choice but to call I and your aunts went back to persuade your little aunt."

"Oh." When Yan Shi said this, Gu Jiujiu stopped asking.

Yan thought that Gu Jiujiu had gone to Father Zhang's house before, so he asked casually, "By the way, Xiao Jiu, did Father Zhang agree to come to our house and help us repair the house?"

"Agreed." Gu Jiujiu smiled, "However, Lao Zhu's family is going to marry a daughter-in-law, so they first asked Father Zhang and his eldest son to help their house repair. So, we have to wait In the past half a month, Father Zhang and the others had to repair Lao Zhu’s house first, and then they came to our house to repair our house.”

"It's just right, in this short half a month, we can prepare the bricks, tiles and wood materials needed to repair the house. At that time, Father Zhang and the others can start to help us repair it as soon as they come." After listening to Gu Jiujiu's words , Yan smiled and said.

In the evening, as soon as Shen Kuo came back from the Yamen, he took a bank note from his bosom and put it in Gu Jiujiu's hand.

Gu Jiujiu looked at the number written on the bank note. This was a full 1000 taels of silver note. She was taken aback for a moment. She subconsciously looked at Shen Kuo and said, "Where did this come from?"

"I got it back from the old bank in the market." Shen Kuo said as he stretched out his long arms and hugged Gu Jiujiu's limp body into his arms, "I was thinking about keeping this money somewhere. In February of next year, I won the tribute and saved enough money. I will buy a big house in the bustling Jin'an City, and let you and your mother move in. It happens that Brother Yan will go to school in Jin'an City in the future. Living there, it is also convenient to take care of Brother Yan at any time."

Unexpectedly, Shen Kuo would say this, Gu Jiujiu's heart warmed up, and he rubbed his little head in his arms, "Then how did you withdraw the money now?"

Shen Kuo looked at the smiling little wife in his arms, leaned over and nibbled a few mouthfuls on her lips, and then said with a low smile: "Xiao Jiu, you and mother want to repair the house, so I will give the money to you." for you."
