Chapter 69

Wan Niang sat in the main room dividing the embroidery thread, listening to the movement in the courtyard, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

After washing his hands and face, Wu Erlang entered the room with a look of shame on his face: "Wan Niang."

Wanniang stopped her fingers twisting the silk thread, raised her eyes and looked at him quietly, and Wu Erlang blushed facing the two clear springs: "You were wronged this morning, that, Heli, isn't..."

I want to say that it was not out of my original intention, but I really wanted to leave at that time.

It's just that after knowing that Heli would push her into a possibly more unbearable situation, he couldn't do that.

At this time, he had to explain and didn't know how to explain, so Wu Erlang stuttered and couldn't speak.

Wu Erlang's bewilderment made Wan Niang feel unbearable, she said softly: "No need to explain, I know you had to say that at the time."

Wan Niang's understanding was like a loose knot, and Wu Erlang breathed a sigh of relief, and his speech became smoother: "The house has changed rooms, we will live in the main room, and Niang said that she will not scold you in the future, that's, that's... "

He got stuck again, Wu Erlang couldn't express their intentions.

"Just to let you do embroidery work well." As for the monthly payment, Wu Erlang decided to go hunting and exchange money for them.

But Wanniang understood as soon as she heard it: "Do you want me to hand over the money I earn from doing embroidery work to my family?"

That's why he changed the room to a bigger one and promised not to scold her?

Wu Erlang couldn't deny it: "Well, I didn't agree, and I didn't even agree to give half of it. It was earned by you stitch by stitch. It's your hard-earned money. Your money is up to you. If they want money, I will go hunting. Give it to them instead."

If you give some money, you don't have to live a life of turmoil, Wu Erlang is willing to work hard.

But Wanniang didn't think so: "Since we live together as a family, I should naturally contribute to the household, but I don't know how much the family's monthly expenses are, and how much we should contribute."

It is impossible for her to hand in all of them.

Aunt Zhou is a good housekeeper, she walked in and said: "Niang Wan is right, you can pay as much as you should, and don't pay what you shouldn't."

How much should that be?
Aunt Zhou looked at the two young people who had never had a family and smiled: "The family depends on the family situation. The poor spend less, and the rich spend more. Erlang's family has no other livelihood. Usually, Erlang hunts for some income. Then Erlang How much wild game can be hunted in a year for money?"

Wu Erlang hesitated for a while and said: "I have to take care of the field work at home, and I don't have much time to hunt. I can hunt up to six or seven thousand coins a year."

Actually more than that.

But he can't say.

Anyway, that's probably all he handed over to his mother.

"That Erlang is also very capable. He can earn six or seven taels of silver a year taking care of the fields. Does Dalang Saburo have any money for your mother?"

Wu Erlang bowed his head: "No, they do part-time jobs occasionally, and the money they earn is for their own use."

Aunt Zhou couldn't help but sneered coldly: "I knew it was like this."

She looked at Wanniang who was listening seriously and said: "Erlang, it's fine if you didn't get married before, but in the future you have to think more about Wanniang and your house.

If there is no separation, one-third of the family’s expenses will be enough. I see that your family’s income is less than ten taels of silver per year, and it can be divided up to 250 Wen per room, and it can be divided into about [-] Wen per month.

Of course, if you want to eat better, you can usually buy some meat back home, but the household allocation must be clearly stated to be fair. "

The Wu family relied on Wu Erlang to farm and farm, and also depended on him to hunt and earn their living, yet they treated him harshly, Aunt Zhou gritted her teeth thinking about it.

In this matter, she has to make a decision for the young couple.
