Chapter 1778: Cold Heart
In the past few years, when the golden pot has made a lot of money outside, it is naturally indispensable to ask someone to bring some things and silver money to the house every year.
There are two copies, one for Wang Yongfu, which can be regarded as filial piety for his son.
The other one, he specially pointed out, this is the pension money for the Lin family, let Jin Dou transfer it to the Lin family, ten taels of silver a year, plus some clothing materials.
Although this money is not much, it is enough for a peasant woman like Lin.
Jin Dou was responsible for the food she ate on weekdays, and later bought her two huts to shelter from the wind and rain, cultivated vegetable fields in front of and behind the house, raised a few chickens, and her son gave money to the private house.
To be honest, these Qilidun are as old as her, and they are not as comfortable as her.
You don't have to bring grandchildren, you don't have to serve men, you just need to take care of your own vegetable patch and the chickens raised at home every day.
As long as she doesn't go out to get in the way of people's eyes, no one is looking for her, after all, for the sake of the Wang family's face, she can't bully her, right?
However, because these sons have separated from the Lin family, it has made the Lin family, who already loves money, more and more fascinated.
She kept all the silver sent back by the golden pot, and she was reluctant to take out a penny to use it.
is to see the eldest grandson born to her by Jin Dou, and she said that she was distressed, but on weekdays, she refused to even cook an egg for her grandson.
The business of the golden pot was a bloody loss that year, and he couldn't wait to even lose the entanglement, so he gritted his teeth and squeezed out five taels of silver, and asked people to take it back, only saying that he was a little tight this year, so the money was less, and he would make up for it when he had enough money.
At that time, he was not without illusions in his heart, thinking that if his family knew the news, would they let someone bring a letter to him, care about him, or know that he was in difficulty, and could support him with some silver, so that he could tide over the difficulties temporarily.
Jin Kettle held on to this fantasy and waited for two months before waiting for a letter.
The letter was safe as usual, saying that everything was fine in the family, that the parents were still healthy, that the golden pot had already said that they were married, and that they would marry their daughter-in-law at the end of the year.
The next thing is to ask him, is it that the person entrusted this time is inappropriate, why did he give so little money to the family? Don't have any New Year's gifts?
He also said that he would marry a daughter-in-law at the end of the year, and now everyone outside knows that the Wang family is powerful, so he asked him to find a few rare things outside, and then send them as a dowry gift, so that the gold pot will have light on the surface.
He also said that because he only sent back five taels of silver, Wang Yongfu didn't ask for a penny, and gave it to Lin's mother. When the Lin family saw that half of it was missing, they were very dissatisfied, and they made a fuss for several days, but they couldn't do anything, and in the end, Jin Dou made up for the empty supply of five taels of silver, and that's it.
Let the golden pot be filled in full in the future, otherwise the Lin family will make a fuss, and everyone's face will not look good.
Finally, I finally asked, asking if Jin Ju was marrying a wife outside? Why didn't you talk to your family? What kind of family does the woman ask? Do you look down on the Wang family? Let the golden pot not be too cowardly, and tell him that he has his aunt and uncle, the elders who are officials, behind him, and there is no need for the woman to hold it.
He also said that if Jin Ju really married his daughter-in-law outside, he should also bring people back at the end of the year, and he hadn't been home for several years, and he happened to participate in the wedding of Jin Keo, and by the way, he also took his daughter-in-law home for the family to see, worship the ancestors, and the last genealogy or something.
And then it's gone.
There is no care that the golden pot thinks, and there is no silver ticket for so-called support.
Jin Kettle looked at the letter, a heart, slowly from hot to cold, the last trace of heat is gone.
He is not stupid, especially in the past few years, he has made quite a lot of achievements in observing words and listening to words, and he can naturally see the real meaning of this letter.
The family did not care as much as he imagined, and when they saw that there was a shortage of money, even if they saw the letter he sent back, they did not believe that he was in trouble, but first suspected that the things he sent back had been ignored.
Later, I guessed that it was impossible, and I suspected that he had married a daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law had a slightly higher family, so I pinched him and didn't let him send so much money to the house, so that he could take advantage of his aunt and uncle's strength to straighten his waist.
On the letter, there was not a word of concern, they all asked him for something, to earn face for the gold pot marriage, and to give the Lin family enough pension money, for fear that she would make a fuss and lose face.
But no one really thought about him, did he really encounter a hurdle that he couldn't get over?
The golden pot pinched the letter, and it was extremely sad! He didn't know why, but suddenly he understood the milk and the aunt back then.
Since then, he has known that there is no way back for him in this world.
Later, he successfully turned over the salted fish, had a net worth again, and continued to resume the habit of sending money to Qilidun, but it was no longer the same as before, and everything good and rare was sent back.
Every year, only twenty taels of silver are sent home, ten taels are given to Wang Yongfu, and ten taels are sent to the Lin family, and there is nothing else.
Later, the Wang family sent a letter to him again and asked him what was going on? Later, they asked people to write to him, why didn't they find him?
asked him again, why didn't he find a few rare things to go back and fight for face for the gold pot?
I also asked him, what is the matter with only sending twenty taels of silver? He also said that Brother Rong in the family is going to school now, but he is very talented, and he will not be able to glorify his ancestors in the future. He also said that he had found an excellent master for Brother Rong now, but this master was a noble man, and ordinary gifts could not impress him, and they did not know much in the countryside, only heard that these masters liked the paintings and words of dead people.
I heard that you can't buy these things with money.
They also have no way, so let the golden pot find a way and buy two, so that the master can take a look at Brother Rong and teach him to be more attentive.
When Jin Keu saw these letters again, there was no slightest wave in his heart, but he didn't see it.
However, the person who piggybacked on the letter this time was an old acquaintance.
It was the land manager of the year, and now he has also been promoted from the Changfeng Dart Bureau in Shiqiao Town to the provincial capital as a dart head, I heard that it was the Wang family who sent the letter, but he personally sent it.
When I saw the golden pot, I sighed.
Although Jin Hu didn't ask, he took the initiative to talk about the current situation of the Wang family.
The business of the Wang family in recent years, because Zhang Yinbao chose the Li family between the Li family and the Li Jiu Shao.
Later, when the Li family divided the nine young people, they gave the industries of Shiqiao Town to the nine young people.
Therefore, Zhang Yinbao slowly shrank the mountain goods business in Shiqiao Town, and in the past two years, it has almost faded out.
The Wang family lost this buyer, and they slowly separated.
Although they all hang the signboard of the Wang family, their focus is different.
Wang Yongping has always maintained a good relationship with the hunters in the mountains because of Liu Xiaoqiao, so he can always buy some precious furs and medicinal materials, so it doesn't look obvious, but it's actually the most profitable.
Wang Yonggui has a strong mouth and a flexible brain, and Jin Pan has been studying in Jing County Evergreen Academy, so the family simply moved to Jing County, bought a shop, and had a small courtyard behind it, and the family settled down in the county seat.
