Leisure time of raising children

Chapter 134 Money
"That must be true. I heard from my nephew that the news about this town seems to have come from the capital. Since it came from the capital, it must be true."

"Then if you don't want to participate in the recruitment, then you have to ask for a lot of money."

"That will definitely not be less. At least five taels or ten taels of silver."

"Tsk tsk, God really wanted the lives of ordinary people like us! Five taels, ten taels of silver would take years to earn."

"That's not, hey, wars hurt people."

"Hey, yeah..."

Lin Wanjiao and Wang Xiulan who were sitting on the side heard all their conversation.

Because there were so many people at the wonton stand, Wang Xiulan wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything.

After the two finished eating the wontons, they looked at the sky.The bullock cart was about to leave, so I hurried to the place where the bullock cart was parked.

On the way, Lin Wanjiao saw someone selling big buns.

Thinking of the eldest brother, sister-in-law, second sister-in-law and father in the family.

They simply bought two big meat buns for them.

After thinking about it again, there seemed to be a tiger and a greedy cat at home.

Lin Wanjiao bought an extra one, Huzi is still young and has a small appetite.One bun is enough.

Wang Xiulan stood aside.Something was on her mind, but it didn't stop Lin Wanjiao from buying so many buns.

Buy the buns and move on.

Wang Xiulan was hesitant to speak.

It was still some distance away from the bullock cart, and Wang Xiulan couldn't hold back as she walked.opened the mouth.

"Jiaojiao, did you hear that?"

"what?"

"Those two people just said they were going to fight."

"Mother, isn't it normal to fight? In the remote areas, fight every three days." Seeing Wang Xiulan's nervous expression, Lin Wanjiao opened her mouth to ease the atmosphere.

Wang Xiulan suddenly hugged Lin Wanjiao's arm.

"Small wars are common, but this time I heard those two people talking, this time the war is not small."

"I heard from those two people just now that they seem to be recruiting troops."

"Mother, don't think so much. Someone in the village will notify you when you recruit soldiers. If you haven't notified yet, it means it's still early."

"Hey, Jiaojiao, you said that if we recruit soldiers, what will our family do?"

"Your father is very old, and your second and third brothers haven't come back yet. Let alone your eldest brother, there is only such a useful laborer in the family. If you go to war, it will last three to five years."

"Let's not talk about it for three to five years. The key is that it will go to the battlefield. It's a matter of whether you come back alive or not." Wang Xiulan couldn't help sighing.

"Didn't you just hear that? Each family can pay five taels or ten taels of silver, so you don't have to go." Lin Wanjiao was also a little discouraged, but she heard the two people seem to say that it's okay to pay.

"Five taels of silver, ten taels of silver, that's a lot. Our family can only spend two taels of silver at most throughout the year. In addition, the family has no money now. Take all the money to let your second and third brothers pay for travel expenses It’s gone. The total sum of the family’s money is less than three taels.” When money was mentioned, Wang Xiulan became even more frowning.

No people, no money.

Lin Wanjiao pursed her lips and spoke.

"Mother, you don't have to worry about money. I have it. Whether it's five taels of silver or ten taels of silver, I have it."

"Jiaojiao, stop talking nonsense, where did you get the money?" When Wang Xiulan heard Lin Wanjiao say that she was rich, she didn't believe it at all.
