MTL - The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family-Chapter 460 Birthday gift (seeking monthly ticket)

   "It's because my brother didn't make it clear, and he tired my siblings to go this way..." Yan Huaiwen looked at his younger brother with clear disapproval.

  The younger siblings are so old, and the weather is cold and the roads are difficult to walk, how can they bother her to come here.

   "Is the younger brother and sister feeling unwell?" He asked gently.

   "It's okay, big brother, I'm just impatient." Li Xuemei paused, not going to go around in circles, and asked bluntly: "I don't know which family is asking about our big sister's marriage. What does big brother mean when he said that he didn't formally mention it?"

  Yan Huaiwen scanned around.

  When the younger brothers and sisters came to the official office, they went straight to his and Heng Er's residence. In this small room right now, except for Da Ya, all the Yan family members are present.

  Everyone looked at him intently, waiting for a definite answer.

Yan Huaiwen slowly said: "He is the elder of Gufeng City. There are three sons and one daughter in the family... The eldest son is married, the second son is about the same age as the third son, and has not yet married. It seems that he intends to marry my family, but... he has no intention of being a brother. If his family formally mentions it, they intend to refuse."

  The son of Lord Gu Fengcheng?

  Li Xuemei and Yan Laoer looked at each other.

  Yan Xiangheng couldn't help but asked: "Father, why did the old man think of marrying our family? They haven't seen the eldest sister either... Did the Gufeng guards who came back to our village say it?"

  The eldest sister is good-looking, it is hard to guarantee that someone will see her and talk back.

  Yan's second son felt that the eldest nephew's question was not on the point.

   "Brother, Gu Feng is optimistic about your future, so he wants to marry our family?"

  Yan Xiangheng froze for a moment, shut his mouth obediently, and frowned in thought.

  Yan Huaiwen closed his eyes, and it was a default.

  Li Xuemei wanted to know the reason why Yan Huaiwen was unwilling, so that she could have an idea in her heart in the future.

   "Is it that the old man's family is not right, or the two children's big brother didn't like it?"

"The lord has three sons and one daughter, one concubine and three concubines... except for the eldest son who is the concubine, the rest are all concubines, and they are all different mothers..." Yan Huaiwen frowned, and said lightly: "The temperament of the first child is not suitable for this kind of family. It's better to be clear and simple."

   Li Xuemei suddenly realized that this was the case.

  Yan Yu was speechless.

  Four children and four mothers are messy enough. If the eldest sister gets married, it will be like a little white rabbit in a pack of wolves, and then be swallowed up...

  Yan Lao Er nodded again and again: "We can't deal with such a family. He is born as a concubine. It is said that he is a hero without knowing his background, but it is better for our daughter to find someone more simple."

  Yan Huaiwen hummed, "No rush, let's take another look, at least two or three years away, if you don't find a suitable one, it doesn't hurt to postpone it."

  Li Xuemei did some calculations in her head, and in two or three years, her eldest daughter will be sixteen or seventeen, and she can be pushed back, which shows that her elder brother really loves her daughter.

  This attitude is very comfortable.

  Yan Er Er said: "Yes, we will not marry if there is no suitable one. This is a major event in a girl's life, and you can't just let it go."

  Li Xuemei looked at Yan Yu, Yan Yu knew the trick and took out the ledger.

   "Uncle, this is our family's account book. The money for building the house has been settled with Master Lu."

  Li Xuemei also took advantage of the situation and said: "Brother, the money is with me, and I brought it here when I come back."

  Yan Huaiwen's expression remained unchanged, and he tapped his finger on the account book.

  At this moment, he already understood that the younger siblings and Xiao Er came here today, not just for the big girl's marriage.

   Judging from the account books, the family has a balance, and the charcoal business is good in cold weather.

Yan Yu: "Uncle, when I went to Guiyuan before, I heard that someone wanted to sell two wooden boats. I thought I'd wait until the spring of next year to have a look. If his house didn't sell and the price was right, our family would buy it." Let’s buy it, if uncle goes to Beijing to take the exam in the future, it will be very convenient for us to take our own boat on the waterway.”

  Yan Huaiwen: It turned out to be here.

   "Buy a boat? Do you have enough money at home?" He asked softly.

   "Enough is enough!" Yan Yu hurriedly said: "The charcoal can still be sold for a few months. After discussing with Dad and Xue Zongqi, we can share the cattle and sheep brought back..."

  Yan Lao Er said: "I will not be idle after I buy the boat. Going upstream and downstream to buy and sell goods is also an income, and there is also the harvest from the fields next year...Brother, you and Heng'er don't have to worry about money."

  Yan Huaiwen laughed.

  How should I explain to my family that the situation in the court will change in the next few years, and if you are not careful, you will be in the abyss.

  He has gone through it once, and there are many obstacles.

  There is a safer path in this life. He doesn’t want to be too radical and put his family in danger, so he wants to avoid this subject...

   "It's not because of the money that I want to wait for an official. It's true that I want to experience more..." Yan Huaiwen said after consideration: "I just feel that this subject is not sure. Instead of taking the exam in a hurry, it's better to wait for another three years..."

  He paused, and then said: "I haven't thought about this matter yet. I haven't passed the exam yet. It's too early to mention it now."

   "Brother, there is one more thing." Li Xuemei said softly that Yan Yu and Mrs. Tofu had agreed to partner in business in Fucheng. "...Our family runs a shop, and she provides a prescription. We will give her dividends within ten years and monthly starting wages. After ten years, the prescription will belong to our family."

  Yan Huaiwen immediately said: "The shop is owned by Xiaoer, and she also manages the capital by herself. It should not be confused with the accounts at home."

  He looked at Yan Yu gently: "Xiao Er, are you confident?"

  Yan Yu bit her lip, "Uncle, I can do it well!"

  Yan Huaiwen nodded approvingly.

   reminded: "The import business should be more attentive, don't rush for success, and focus on stability."

  …

  Master Tian was surprised when he heard that Mrs. Yan Er was coming, and hurriedly asked Yan Er Er to ask what happened.

  Yan Huaiwen ordered Yan Xiangheng to take Li Xuemei to the residence of Yan's second son in Houya to rest.

  Bring Yan Yu to his poor room.

   "I wanted to give it to you early in the morning, but I forgot it after walking to Beirong. Let Xiao Er take a look, do you like it?"

  Yan Huaiwen handed over a brown seal.

   It is made of half stone and half jade, so small and exquisite that it can be wrapped by Yan Yu's fist.

  The lettering on it is also extremely simple, and the four characters in Yan Yu's small print are neat and neat.

  The side was signed in very small characters.

  Yan Yu recognized the uncle's handwriting.

   "Did my uncle engrave it for me?" She asked happily.

  Yan Huaiwen nodded with a smile.

   "Xiao Er's birthday is on the tenth day of October. Uncle remembers that your father is on the fifteenth day, a few days later than you."

  Yan Yu was even more surprised, this is a birthday present!

   "Does Daddy have one too?"

   "Yes, give it to him later."

   "Uncle, I like it so much!" Yan Yu looked over and over, and tried to cover his hands.

  The light and white traces gradually dissipated.

  How beautiful it looks.

  Yan Huaiwen smiled lightly: "When signing the contract, you can also use the seal."

  Yan Yu suddenly said: "Uncle, I'm looking through my father's old book, there is a way to dye cloth on it, let me try it, if it works, I will make a new robe for uncle."

   Change first and then change ~
