Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Could I Possibly Lead You Astray?
After saying goodbye to Wang Xiangxiang, Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming went home laughing; she finally secured that six hundred taels of silver.As soon as they got home, Xiaoxiao organized a family meeting, the main purpose of which was to distribute silver.
"Yang Ming and I have brought home the silver we earned! Six hundred taels!" Xiaoxiao excitedly placed the silver on the table.
Everyone was surprised when they heard Xiaoxiao’s words; then they saw the silver on the table, six hundred taels—it was a lot of silver! Previously, they wouldn’t even spend so much in a year.
"Are you all happy? So! I am going to give you all some pocket money now!" Xiaoxiao continued speaking; she was very happy as they no longer had to live frugally!
"Thirty taels for eldest brother’s family, thirty for the second brother’s, thirty for me and Yang Ming, thirty for the fourth brother, thirty for Xiaoqiu, and thirty for father and mother."
As she spoke, Xiaoxiao handed out the silver, "The remaining four hundred and twenty taels will be kept for the School, next year we will still need this as capital to earn more silver."
The family hadn’t expected Xiaoxiao to casually hand out thirty taels as pocket money, truly unable to change her lavish spending habits.
"Sister-in-law, I really shouldn’t have it, I didn’t do any work." At this point, Xiaoqiu said bashfully; she had just returned and hadn’t been able to help around the house at all, so she felt embarrassed to take it!
"This is pocket money, not wages. Weren’t the wages already distributed to everyone else? You weren’t given any at the time!"
Xiaoxiao said seriously, and she was right. Yang Qiu was just bashful, without this push, she wouldn’t have accepted it.
"Besides, a girl needs to be pampered, she can buy whatever she wants, do whatever she wants! By the way, do you want to study? I will send you to the girls’ School!"
"..." The family all thought to themselves that the Zhong Family really raises their girls well, indeed much better than they did.
"I’d rather not go!"
"Go on. And the fourth brother, the three little ones, next spring everyone is going to school! What do you think, Yang Ming?"
Xiaoxiao unknowingly always sought Yang Ming’s opinion when she spoke, not even realizing it herself.
"Yes, let them all go! Just like you said, knowledge changes destiny. It’s not about taking exams, but having education and manners is always good!" His wife truly made sense.
At this point Yang Dong was not pleased, "I’m not going, I need to do business with my sister-in-law!"
Yang Dong was right beside Xiaoxiao, who, hearing his reluctance, slapped his back, "How can you do business if you can’t read? Want to end up like Yang Wei, selling yourself off? Eh? You know how to count? Can you handle money?"
Yang Dong didn’t dare to argue after being told off; his sister-in-law was right, "Then you don’t need to give me thirty taels! I won’t use it!"
Xiaoxiao slapped him again, "You blockhead, keep it for taking a wife, buy her gifts, pamper your wife!"
When the family heard Xiaoxiao’s words, they all burst into laughter and Yang Dong’s face turned red.
Yang Ming suddenly realized hearing these words why his wife wanted him to save up some private money—it was right; he needed to earn money to spend on his wife, to pamper her.
"Sister-in-law, the others going to school is fine, but my Guangguang shouldn’t go, right? What can a girl learn?" The eldest sister-in-law, a very traditional woman, thought that girls didn’t need education.
"Eldest sister-in-law, what’s wrong with a girl? Girls can also aspire to be as great as men! Don’t worry, I can handle our Guangguang, how could I steer her wrong?"
"..." The bravado of this youngest sister-in-law! With her temperament, letting her guide, surely Guangguang wouldn’t become a proper lady!
