Chapter 72 Only reading is good

Although the Lu family has been running Jishi Hall for many years and has saved a lot of money, most of the money has been used to buy medicinal materials. They can't come up with 500 taels at a time. Maybe they can get it all if they sell Jishi Hall.

.

However, this Jishitang was founded by Lu Renjia after half his life's 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 raise enough money, the Lu family worried for several days and could not sleep well. Finally, Lu Fucheng gritted his teeth and made up his mind to use the family's ancestral home to pay off the debt.

The ancestral home of the Lu family is located in Shuangque Lane on Yongfeng Street in the west of the city. It has a quiet environment and a large area. It has a large yard with two entrances and two exits. It has good Feng Shui. I guess it won't be a problem to sell it for 400 taels. The rest will be left to me.

It's enough to borrow it from relatives and friends.

Lu Renjia and Aunt Lu had no objections, and both said they would follow Lu Fucheng's wishes and sell the house for money.

Lu Yuan was unwilling to give in, but he had no choice but to keep his head down without saying a word. The expression on his face looked very depressed and depressed.

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

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

In order to make money, the Lu family sold their entire house. Naturally, their lives would be very difficult in the future. If they were to provide food and accommodation for the two of them, they would be even more stretched.

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

Not long ago, the money I earned from selling flowers and Spring Festival couplets, as well as the monthly payment from Jishitang, added up to one dollar and it actually amounted to sixteen taels.

When Chu Yingying heard this, her face suddenly darkened, and she stared at Cui Yunhao for a moment, her tone seemed particularly stern.

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

Cui Yunhao hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly said: "Sister, starting from tomorrow, can I stop going to school? If we rent a yard and add in the annual food and clothing expenses, we won't have much money left.

I really can’t afford to pay for my education.”

Their family has always treated the two of them well, but now something happened in Jishitang, and their abilities are limited. Although they can't be of much help, they can at least stop causing trouble to them.

After Cui Yunhao heard this, he did not go back immediately. Instead, he still stood where he was, looking at Chu Yingying, as if he was hesitant to speak.

As soon as she thought of this, Chu Yingying put her purse back to its original place, touched Cui Yunhao's head, and said softly: "I have to go to school tomorrow morning. You go back to your room to sleep early. I can do it when I have free time these two days."

Let’s go find out if there is a cheaper yard to rent.”

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 smaller courtyard, it is still ok.

"Absolutely not! You have to go to a private school to study. Even if I sell it, I will still provide for you to study!"

When Chu Yingying saw this, she said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Cui Yunhao couldn't help but be startled.

In his impression, his sister had 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 sincerely: "Little mouse, you must remember that everything is inferior, only reading is good! For children like us who come from poor families,

, 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. One day, you will be the top scorer in high school and become a first-class official. Only then will you be able to truly control your own destiny, and at the same time, you can control the destiny of others!"
