Uncle Qian glanced at him, and said to Old Zhou: "Since we have it at home, we can exchange it with the loose silver at home."
It was only now that old Zhou Tou remembered this, and he said with a naive smile: "I'm so busy, how can I remember that there are silver coins at home?"
Old Zhou looked at Qian, but Qian didn't move, he raised his eyelids and said, "There are not so many silver pieces."
She has already heard clearly that the two families have a total of eleven taels that have not been paid, and the silver at home is like a little Douding, who is only in his early threes, what a fart.
"Oh." Old Zhou looked at Man Bao, "Come on, let's cut the money."
Man Bao didn't know why Dad was so keen on cutting silver, but she sighed and stepped forward. She estimated the ratio of four taels to seven taels, and then drew a line on the silver.
Old Zhou's head sank into his dantian, and when he scissored it, there was a hole in Yinzi. He aimed at the hole and cut it down again...
Uncle Qian was very moved when he saw it, and put aside the matter of being deprived of the financial power. Well, in fact, the financial power has not been in his hands for many years. Give me a try."
Even Uncle Qian and Uncle Qian looked at the pair of scissors ready to move.
In the end, the silver ingot was finally cut into two parts with the concerted efforts of the four old men. The old Zhou Tou took out the scale and weighed one piece with a smile, and said happily: "Oh, this one is quite accurate, six to two five points, a little more A bit."
Uncle Qian: ... What is it called
Old Zhou Tou waved his hand angrily and said, "Okay, I'll exchange the five cents for you and give them to you. Five cents of silver is five hundred Wen, right?"
"... It's six hundred Wen." Man Bao explained: "Father, you can calculate one thousand two hundred Wen for one tael."
Old Zhou felt a bit distressed, "Okay, your uncle's side is almost there, is it three or two or four and a half?"
"Okay, it's just a little bit worse," Uncle Qian said, "It counts as five points."
Old Zhou Tou couldn't figure out the relationship during this period, so he waved his hand and asked Manbao to change the money.
Uncle Qian didn't quite understand it, but Uncle Qian could understand it.
Qian finally opened the money box, because there were not enough copper coins.
The old Zhou’s family set up a stall, or a few children went out to sell ginger cubes in the streets, and most of the money they earned was copper coins.
So the boxes at home are full of hanging copper coins.
Compared with silver coins, Uncle Qian and others were too kind when they saw copper coins.
Although they have also held silver in their hands, even ten taels and twenty taels, they always feel that copper coins are more reliable.
So they have no objection to exchanging silver for copper coins.
In fact, if the old Zhou's family didn't have so many copper coins, they would still want to exchange them all for copper coins to go home.
160,000 copper coins, that's 16 hangs, I get excited just thinking about it.
Man Bao counted six strings of money to Uncle Qian, one string worth 100 Wen, while the one to Uncle Qian was six strings plus fifty Wen.
Uncle Qian reached out to take it, but the two sons behind him took a step forward, and took the heavy copper coins from Man Bao graciously, and the old Zhou Tou also gave the silver in his hand to the two children.
Uncle Qian: …
Uncle Qian was very happy, everyone in Qian's family was happy, and Lao Zhou's family was even happier, except for Uncle Qian.
Uncle Qian said to his two nephews: "When you go back, give your mother some copper coins, and then go to the market to buy some meat. I was somewhat injured in the busy spring, and May is full of evil spirits. Eat more."
The two agreed happily.
Lao Zhou asked Dalang and Erlang to move the remaining money into the room, and after relaxing, he realized that he was very hungry.
Qian said: "Everyone hasn't eaten lunch yet, let's make lunch first."
The women rushed into the kitchen and started cooking.
A group of elders sat under the eaves and chatted while enjoying the shade. The three uncles did not let Man Bao go at this time, and pulled her to him to look at them strangely. After a long time, they said with emotion: "Man Bao You are really getting more and more promising, I just saw that you are playing well, will you be able to pay off when you grow up?"
Man Bao smiled embarrassedly, and said modestly: "Mr. said that my calculation skills are still far behind, and I still have to learn."
"Mr. Zhuang is a nice person, so you have to respect and honor him," Uncle Qian turned to Old Zhou when he said this, "We were so dazed just now that we were too preoccupied with money, and we didn't thank Mr. Zhuang properly. You will have to ask the aunt to send more eggs later. By the way, "
Uncle Qian said: "At the Dragon Boat Festival, I asked your sister-in-law and the others to come over to see your two little grandchildren, and then loosen some eggs. Since I mentioned this, I will ask your sister-in-law and the others to come over tomorrow and bring more eggs." Send the eggs to Mr. Zhuang."
The day after tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival.
Old Zhou Tou responded with a smile.
He is still a little worried recently. The two daughter-in-laws in the family can eat too much, and he is not willing to buy meat, so recently the family has to cook eggs every two days, even if it is only for a few children. Adults drink soup, and there are a lot of eggs.
After all, there are seven grandchildren in their family who can eat eggs now, plus Man Bao, plus the five and six who are not yet adults in his eyes, ten of them will go to one egg per person, and then Plus two daughters-in-law who can eat especially...
Lao Zhou wanted to replace the eldest daughter-in-law several times, thinking that he might as well let the second daughter-in-law cook for the two younger daughter-in-laws.
But now there is no need to worry, as long as he thinks of the money piled up in the room at this time, Lao Zhou is very happy and proud, and decides to boil all the eggs at home at night.
Well, you can go to Dajishang to cut a piece of meat back.
They were talking here, and Man Bao took the opportunity to sneak up to Third Uncle Qian, and comforted him, "Don't be sad, Uncle San, I'll give you sweets later."
With that said, Man Bao took out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to him.
Uncle Qian took it and stuffed it into his mouth to eat, then sighed deeply, his whole body was full of sadness.
Man Bao looked very distressed. In her heart, this was her own 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 the sister-in-law took her back to her natal home, she lived and ate at Qian's house, and she was hugged by Uncle Qian since she was a child.
As for Uncle Qian, she liked to be played around by his neck, and she remembered that every time she went to Uncle Qian's house when she was a child, Uncle Qian would secretly go to the kitchen to prepare delicious food for her.
Although the sister-in-law said that it was because the third uncle wanted to eat it himself, so he gave her an excuse to eat it...
But she still likes Uncle San very much.
But what my uncle said is right, gambling is wrong.
She knew since she was a child that a gambler who is involved in gambling has no sense at all, just like the lame man next door, he can't even be called a human being when he has an attack.
