Aunt Ji didn't plan to spend the night at her parents' house, so she left after a while.
When she went back, Mrs.
Ji also packed a box of candied fruits that Ji Qingqing and the others had sent over from Butler Mu before and brought them back to her.
How ridiculous it was that Aunt Ji brought snacks from the Niu family and showed off proudly in front of Mrs.
In the blink of an eye, it's the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
According to previous years, after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Ji Mingguang's family will have returned to the city.
As the saying goes: You can't delay your studies.
This reason cannot be described as irrational, natural, and aboveboard.
It just works every time.
Who told Mr.
Ji and Mrs.
Ji to do this?
On the night of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Mr.
Ji will give money to Dafang, which is enough for four months.
Ji Mingguang and his son said that they were studying in the spring, so they would not come back in the past few months.
It would be more convenient to bring more money.
Ji Qingqing's petty guess was: They don't want to come back when they are busy with spring plowing.
This is the New Year, and Dafang is said to be visiting his teachers, friends and classmates, which is another expense.
That night, Mr.
Ji called Ji Minghe over.
Mrs.
Xue knew it well and reminded: "I don't care if the old man drags you to reminisce about the past.
If you want money for a big house, there is not even a penny as our family has plenty of money to spend.
Not to mention building a house this year, two I haven’t prepared anything for the betrothal gifts of my son and my two daughters.”
Ji Minghe sighed and nodded, sighing helplessly: "Don't worry, I'm not that confused."
Mrs.
The old lady is acting arrogantly, but the old man can pretend to be pitiful.
When we got to the mansion, we chatted for a while, and it turned out that they were talking about giving money to the mansion.
I don’t know who reminded Mr.
Ji.
What Mr.
Ji means is that although the third family has been separated, they are still brothers after all, and when the first family becomes prosperous, they will definitely benefit from it.
And this autumn Ji Tongji will participate in Qiuwei, and maybe he will become an official next year.
This is the time when money is needed.
Everyone has worked hard and endured it.
As long as Tongji Gong is given to help, the Ji family will also help.
It’s not too much.
Since we still need to build a house with three rooms, we can just pay twenty taels.
If you don’t have twenty taels, fifteen taels will do.
There is no money for the second and fourth bedrooms.
The money is all in the hands of Mr.
Ji and Mrs.
Ji.
Ji Minghui and Ji Mingyao were eager to get more money from the third room.
It wasn’t their money anyway, so why should they share it with the third room and live a good life?

As soon as Mr.
Ji finished speaking, before Ji Mingguang could say anything, Ji Minghui and Ji Mingyao began to persuade each other.
An idea struck him, and Ji Minghui spoke plausibly, saying that when Ji Tongxin went out to do business, the family hadn't been separated yet, so the money he earned should be returned to the government.
Originally, Ji Minghe was a bit stubborn and a little bit regretful, but Ji Minghui's words made him furious.
The angry Tong Ji Minghui started to argue.
"When Tong Xin went out, his family didn't give him a tael of silver as a capital, and he came back after suffering such a crime.
There is no money left.
Second brother, what you said is so chilling."
Ji Minghui suddenly became a little embarrassed: "Don't be angry, third brother.
Well, that's what I said, and that's what I meant."
When he and Ji Minghe went to find Ji Tongxin together, they asked Ji Tongxin how his business was and whether he was making money.
In the end, nothing was asked, and Ji Tongxin was asked to stop him after a few words.
Seeing that the building was crooked, Mr.
Ji brought it back to the subject with a wave of his hand: "Okay, let's not talk about anything else tonight.
Third brother, look at this money, why don't you send it over tomorrow?"
Ji Mingguang smiled and said: "Third brother, you are all my younger brothers.
I, as my elder brother, will keep your contributions in mind these years.
Don't worry, I will not forget your kindness in the future.
The gentlemen in the academy all said that Tongji will be the best this year."
He is the most promising person in the academy to win the exam.
As long as he studies hard during this period and does not let mundane things affect his mood, he will definitely win the exam and our old Ji family will be prosperous. " Mr.
Ji's face lit up when he heard this, his heart was moved, and he wished that day would come soon.
"Tongji is a good and capable boy.
Hehe, he will definitely succeed.
Our Ji family depends entirely on him," Mr.
Ji said with a smile.
Ji Mingguang braced himself and said, "But, I really have no money."
"You're right, Third Brother," Ji Minghui said with a smile, "If you don't have money, you can buy land and build a new house and save a little, but you can still save a little."
“But that’s the money to build a house, how could you?”
"Don't you still have business?"
"Third brother, what does this house mean?
When I become an official, I will have plenty of money.
I will keep it for your family to build a big and grand house.
Of course, our big house will also need to be rebuilt, with front and back yards, and separate There are several small courtyards.”
Ji Minghe: "" He was speechless.
Ji Minghe was almost defeated.
The old man and others left him speechless.
But when he thought about how hard his family was working so hard and their days barely improved, how could he bear it?
Thinking of what his little girl told him before coming here, Ji Minghe gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, I really don't expect to take advantage of my eldest brother and nephew.
I know how capable I am of carrying a big bowl, and living a steady life."
Just live your own life. , The family really has no money.
My father and eldest brother have talked about this, and I can’t say anything else.
If the eldest brother is willing to write a letter, I still have five taels of silver here, and I really don’t have a penny more.
Spring has come, but there are no seeds in the fields yet.”
"you" Ji Mingguang's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he became angry with embarrassment.

It was simply humiliating for him to write a document for five taels of silver.
Ji Minghe hurriedly laughed again and said: "Brother, just write down an integer, just five taels.
I will give you six taels.
If you ask for more, I will lose one tael."
This is the result of Ji Qingqing and Xue's discussion.
If they really don't give one or two, I don't know what kind of trouble the old man and the old lady will cause.
They are mother and daughter, but Ji Minghe is caught in the middle.
How can it be easy?
The so-called rat-throwing weapon is like this.
But this money will not be given in vain.
If you have the IOU in your hand, it will be useful if you catch more.
I will settle this account with them slowly in the future.
"Didn't you sell your business in the city for a hundred taels a while ago?"
Mr.
Ji suddenly said.
"That's" Ji Ming and Shengsheng changed the subject, "What are those words?
It's nothing at all."
Ji Minghe felt extremely complicated, his father actually tested him, hey No wonder the whole family said they couldn't admit it and refused to admit it.
I really can’t admit it.
"Don't worry, brother, this IOU is just a useless thing.
I keep it in my hand and feel at ease.
I won't take it out to force brother to pay back the money.
Our old Ji family can't afford to lose face like this, and I can't let anyone say it behind my back.
Ruthless and mean.”
Ji Mingguang's expression softened.
Sixty taels of silver is quite a lot
