Rebirth: Bringing a Husband to a Well-off Society

Chapter 60 Li is coming to collect money

The Gu family is still sitting at home, Gu's mother plans to go out later, and Shen Lu also plans to take Gu Xixue to the town to buy some things. It's late autumn, and it will be winter soon, and the clothes now look a little thin. Moreover, Gu Xixue is still growing up, and her winter clothes from last year are too small to wear anymore, but she doesn't have her original body, so I don't know if she didn't bring it with her, or because she was sent to others, so she couldn't bring it with her.

But before the three of them could go out, Li Zheng came.

"Is Cheng Xi's mother here?" Li Zheng stood outside the door and shouted loudly.Firstly, the Gu family are all female relatives, even if Lizheng couldn't go in directly, he would always bring someone with him.Secondly, even if there is nothing to do, you should avoid it. After all, gossip is the most terrifying, especially the reputation of a woman is the most important.

Gu's mother heard someone calling her outside the door, so she let Gu Xixue go back to the room to play by herself. It's not that Gu's mother is partial and protects Gu Xixue, but Gu Xixue can't help much, and it's easy to make trouble.

Gu's mother settled Gu Xixue, and she took Shen Lu to the door to see what was going on. Before the door was opened, Gu's mother answered loudly at the door: "Are you there? Who is outside the door? What are you looking for at our house?"

Hearing Gu's mother's reply, Lizheng continued: "It's me, Lizheng, something happened today. The government sent someone to inform you about the tax collection. As in previous years, your Xicheng has a reputation. This year It's still reduced as usual, I don't know if Xi Cheng's mother is ready, please take it out and send it out, it's not suitable for us to go in, so we wait at the door."

Gu's mother was very happy when she heard Lizheng said that the tax had not increased. Although their family is no longer short of money, everyone understands the principle of saving if possible.

Gu's mother asked Shen Lu to wait at the door, and she didn't need to open the door. She responded, "I've prepared it earlier, just wait, I'm afraid there will be a delay, or I don't have enough money. Listen to what you say now. I felt relieved. I was waiting for a while, and I went to get the silver taels."

Li Zheng said at the outside door: "Okay, I'll wait, Xi Cheng his mother, you don't have to worry."

Li Zheng also took care of the Gu family, mainly because the Gu family had a scholar, Gu Xicheng, and their family never defaulted on taxes, and they were polite every time they came to talk, and everything was negotiated, unlike other families. , I can't always be so happy, I have to grind for a while every time.

Gu's mother went into the house to get the money she had prepared, and then counted how much silver she had in her hand. Shen Lu gave her some back then, although she didn't take all of it, but she did keep some in her hand. , is always enough, even if it is possible to buy more things this winter, it is also possible to change the taste of food and new clothes for them.

As a new daughter-in-law, Shen Lu was supposed to dress festively and beautifully, but her family was poor, so she couldn't buy a dress for her. Now Shen Lu's blessing is delayed, and the family is so good. It's winter, she should also make some clothes for Shen Lu, so that she can spend the winter well, it will be bad if it gets frozen.

Although Gu's mother was thinking about it, she didn't delay her pace. After a while, she reached the gate, opened the door and went out, handed the money to Li Zheng and said, "Li Zheng, count a little, and see if there is a mistake."

Li Zheng took the money from Gu's mother and nodded, looked at it but knew it was right, smiled and said: "Yes, your family has always been honest, and you will never be fooled about this matter."

　It's getting cold, remember to add clothes, it's probably getting colder now.
