Chapter 427

Uncle Qian glanced at him and said to the old Zhoutou: "Since there is one at home, it is also fine to use the loose silver at home."

It was only then that Old Zhoutou remembered this, and he smiled naively: "I'm so dizzy, how can I remember that there are silver nuggets at home?"

Old Zhou looked at Qian, who didn't even move the bullet, he lifted his eyelids and said, "There aren't that many silver nuggets."

She had heard clearly, the two families still had 11 taels to give, and the silver nuggets at home were the same as small peas, only in their early 30 taels.

"Oh." Old Zhou looked at Man Bao, "Come on, let's cut the silver."

Man Bao didn't know why Dad was so keen on cutting silver, but she still stepped forward with a sigh. She estimated the proportion of four taels and seven taels, and then drew a line on the silver.

Old Zhou was so angry that he went down in his dantian, and when he went down with the scissors, there was a hole in the silver.

Uncle Qian was so moved that he put aside the matter of being deprived of financial power. Well, in fact, financial power has not been in his hands for many years. I'll try it."

It was Uncle Qian and Uncle Qian who looked at the scissors and started to move.

In the end, with the concerted efforts of the four old men, the silver ingot was finally cut into two parts, and the old Zhoutou smiled and took out the scale and weighed one piece, and said happily: "Oh, this is quite accurate, six to five points, a little more. a little."

Uncle Qian: What is this called?

The old Zhoutou waved his hand in a grand manner: "Okay, for the five cents, I will give you copper coins. Five cents of silver for full treasures is five hundred coins, right?"

"...It's six hundred wen." Man Bao explained: "Dad, you can count one two hundred wen for one or two."

Old Zhoutou felt a little distressed, "Okay, your uncle's side is almost there, is this counted as three or two or four and a half?"

"Okay, it's just a little bit worse," Uncle Qian said, "It's five points."

Old Zhoutou couldn't figure out the relationship during this period, so he directly waved Man Bao to find money.

Uncle Qian didn't quite understand it, but Uncle Qian could understand.

Qian finally opened the money box because there was not enough copper money.

The old Zhou family set up a stall, or a few children went out and sold ginger nuggets, and most of the money they earned was copper coins.

Therefore, the boxes at home are full of copper coins hanging one after another.

Compared with silver, Uncle Qian and others were really too kind when they saw copper coins.

Although they have also held silver in their hands, even in the case of ten taels and twenty taels, they always feel that copper coins are more reliable.

Therefore, they have no opinion at all about exchanging silver for copper.

In fact, if the old Zhou family didn't have so much copper coins, they would still want to exchange all of them for copper coins to go home.

One hundred and sixty thousand copper coins, that is sixteen hangings, and I get excited when I think about it.

Man Bao counted six strings of money for Uncle Qian, and one string was one hundred cents, while the one for Uncle Qian was six strings of one hanging, plus fifty cents.

Qian Sanjiu stretched out his hand to take it, but the two sons behind him stepped forward and took the heavy copper coin from Manbao's hand diligently, and Lao Zhoutou gave the money to the two children.

Uncle Qian: ...

Uncle Qian was very happy, the Qian family were very happy, and Lao Zhou's family was even more happy, except for Uncle Qian.

Uncle Qian said to his two nephews: "After you go back, give your mother some copper coins, and then go to the market to buy some meat back. I was a little bit hurt by the busy spring. May is very evil, so eat more."

The two happily agreed.

Old Zhoutou asked Dalang and Erlang to move the rest of the money into the room, only to find that he was very hungry after relaxing.

Qian said, "Everyone hasn't had lunch yet, so let's make lunch first."

The women rushed into the kitchen and started cooking.

A group of elders sat under the eaves while enjoying the shade and gossiping. At this time, the three uncles did not leave Manbao, and they pulled her to him and looked at them, and said with emotion after a long time, "Manbao You are really getting more and more promising, I just saw that you are good at abacus, and you will be better when you grow up?"

Man Bao smiled embarrassedly and said modestly, "Sir said that my abacus is still far behind, and I have to learn."

"Mr. Zhuang is a good man, but you must respect him well," Uncle Qian said, turning his head to ask Old Zhou, "Just now we were in a daze, we were looking at the money, and we didn't thank Mr. Zhuang well. You'll have to ask the aunt to send more eggs over there. By the way,"

Uncle Qian said: "Originally, I asked your sister-in-law and the others to come over on the Dragon Boat Festival to see your two little grandsons, and then come over with some more eggs. Since this is mentioned, I will ask your sister-in-law and the others to come over tomorrow, bring some more. Eggs, send them to Mr. Zhuang."

The day after tomorrow is Dragon Boat Festival.

Old Zhou Tou responded with a smile.

He has been a little worried recently. The two daughters-in-law at home can eat too much, and he is reluctant to buy meat, so recently he has to cook eggs every two days at home, even if it is only for a few children, they When adults drink soup, there are a lot of eggs.

After all, there are only seven grandchildren in their family who can eat eggs now, plus Man Bao, plus the old five and the six who are not yet adults in his eyes, they will go to ten for one egg per meal. Plus two daughters-in-law who can eat especially...

Old Zhoutou wanted to replace the eldest daughter-in-law several times, thinking that he might just let the second daughter-in-law cook food for the two younger daughters-in-law.

But now there is no need to worry anymore. As long as he thinks of the silver piled up in the room at this time, Lao Zhoutou is very happy, very proud, and decides to boil all the eggs in the house at night.

Well, you can also go to Daji and cut a piece of meat back.

When they were talking here, Man Bao took the opportunity to sneak up to Uncle Qian San and comforted him: "Uncle San, don't be sad, I'll give you candy later."

With that said, Man Bao pulled out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to him.

Uncle Qian took it and ate it in his mouth, then sighed deeply, his whole body was full of sadness.

Man Bao looked very distressed. In her heart, this was her uncle, so she really had deep feelings for the three uncles.

Among the three uncles, she has the best relationship with the eldest uncle and the third uncle.

The former is because every time my sister-in-law takes her back to her parents' house, she eats and lives in Qian's house, but she was held in his arms by Uncle Qian when she was a child.

As for Uncle Qian, she likes to play around with him on her neck, and she remembers that every time she went to Uncle San's house when she was a child, Uncle San always secretly went to the kitchen to cook something for her.

Although the sister-in-law said that it was because the third uncle wanted to eat it herself, so she gave her an excuse to eat it...

But she still likes Uncle San.

But what my uncle said is right, gambling is wrong.

She knew from a young age that a gambler who is caught in gambling is irrational, like the man next door, who can't even be called a person when he attacks.
