After rebirth, I kidnapped the future powerful official

Chapter 72

Although the Lu family has been running Jishitang for many years and has saved a lot of money, most of the money has been used to buy medicinal materials, and they can't afford 500 taels for a while. If they sell Jishitang, they might be able to get it all together.

However, this Jishitang was founded by Lu Renjia with half his life's painstaking efforts. It will have to be passed on to Lu Fucheng and Lu Yuan in the future, and it must not be sold easily.

In order to find ways to make up enough money, the Lu family worried for several days and couldn't sleep well. Finally, Lu Fucheng gritted his teeth and made up his mind to use the family's ancestral house to pay off the debt.

The Lu family's ancestral house is located in Shuangque Lane, Yongfeng Street, west of the city. It has a quiet environment and occupies a large area. There are two large courtyards with two entrances and two exits. The Feng Shui is also good. It is estimated that it should be no problem to sell 400 taels, and the rest will be sold to relatives. It is enough for friends to borrow.

Lu Renjia and Aunt Lu had no objection, and they both said that they sold the house for money according to Lu Fucheng's wishes.

Lu Yuan was not reconciled, but he had no choice but to keep his head down all the time, without saying a word, with a very downcast and frustrated expression on his face.

Chu Yingying saw everything in her eyes, and gradually had another consideration in her stomach.

In the evening, she called Cui Yunhao into her room, and said straight to the point: "Little mouse, let's live somewhere else, how about it?"

In order to lose money, the Lu family sold the whole house, and they will naturally live in a tight financial situation in the future. If they continue to support the two of them for food and shelter, it will be even more difficult.

Their family has always been kind to the two of them. Now that something happened to Ji Shitang, the two of them are limited in their abilities. Although they can't help much, at least don't continue to cause trouble for them.

Of course Cui Yunhao understood this truth and agreed without thinking.

So, Chu Yingying immediately took out her purse from under the quilt, dumped the copper plates and broken silver inside on the table, and counted them several times with Cui Yunhao.

Some time ago, I went out to sell flowers and Spring Festival couplets to earn money, and the monthly payment of Jishitang's settlement, adding one yuan was as much as 16 taels.

In the city of Hangzhou, this amount of money is definitely not enough to buy a house to live in. If you just rent a small yard, it is still possible.

Thinking of this, Chu Yingying put her purse back to its original place, patted Cui Yunhao's head, and said softly: "I have to go to school early tomorrow morning, you go back to bed early, I'm free these two days Go and find out if there is a cheaper yard for rent."

After Cui Yunhao heard this, he didn't leave immediately to go back. Instead, he still stood there, looking at Chu Yingying, hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Chu Yingying said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Cui Yunhao hesitated for a moment before hesitatingly said: "Sister, from tomorrow on, can I not go to school? If we rent the yard, plus the annual food and clothing expenses, there is not much money left. It’s really not enough for me to study.”

"Absolutely not! You have to go to a private school to study, even if you sell everything, I will pay you to study!"

When Chu Yingying heard this, her expression darkened immediately, and she stared at Cui Yunhao without blinking, her tone was particularly severe.

Cui Yunhao couldn't help being taken aback.

In his memory, his sister seemed to have never shown such a serious expression in front of him.

Chu Yingying took a deep breath, reached out and patted Cui Yunhao's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Little mouse, you must remember that everything is inferior, only reading is high! For us children from poor families Therefore, studying hard is the only way to change your destiny.

Not only do you have to study hard, but you also need to take every imperial examination in the future, and one day you will be the number one scholar in high school, and you will be promoted to a high-ranking official. Only then will you be able to truly control your own destiny, and at the same time control the destiny of others!"
