No wonder Erni Su Yitian was angry and kept staring at her as if she were an enemy.
Su Qiao understood.
This family cannot be divided!
"Mother, after the family is divided, who will buy paper and ink for father? Who will support my elder brother to study? My brother's annual tuition costs two taels of silver."
"And the pens, paper, ink, and books are all very expensive. My father and brother have to spend five or six taels of silver a year."
"If we split up, we'll have to pay for all this money ourselves."
"Also, my brother is not young anymore, it's time for him to get engaged. The engagement gift will probably be quite a lot. Will you pay for it then?"
"And my little brother is eight years old now, so it's time for him to go to school. This is another big expense."
"Mom, are you sure you can afford so much money? How do you support our family?"
The eldest daughter has no ability to make money, okay
Su Yaohui has taken the examination for the title of scholar several times, but failed every time. Now he is just a student.
He was neither high nor low, and even the private school in the town didn't want him to be a teacher.
He is not good at other kinds of work, such as farming, but he is too proud to do business. He considers himself a scholar, and doing business would be a disgrace to the ambition of a scholar.
So I've been sitting at home doing nothing, with no income at all.
The eldest brother Su Yichen is sixteen years old. Not only does he not bring money home, he also spends money all day long.
Not to mention Zhou Lihua.
He wanted to live a good life but was unwilling to work for it. He only wanted to rely on his son to pass the imperial examinations and his daughter to marry into a wealthy family so that he could enjoy the good life with him.
Add to that her original self, Su Qiao, who was brainwashed by her, and her younger brother who always goes out to play and doesn't think about anything.
This whole family is completely a parasite of the Su family.
Are you still thinking about splitting up
Is there something wrong with your brain
After Su Qiao's analysis, Zhou Lihua was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, and all the little thoughts she had before were gone.
"I... When did I say we wanted to separate?"
"Do you think I'm stupid? If the family is divided, won't it benefit your second uncle's family?"
"… "
Su Qiao really wanted to pry open her head and take a good look at the structure inside.
After the family split up, it should be a benefit to the eldest son, right
No matter how you calculate it, the money their eldest wife has spent over the years must have been no less than sixty taels.
This is all the hard-earned money of the old man and my second uncle's family.
The old man obviously favors his eldest son's family.
And it's a bit biased.
"Mom, help me get more mulberry bark and qingtan tree bark. I promise that when I make money, I will make grandpa and grandma relent and give you a share."
"By the way, we should have some wheat straw at home, right? We should get some of that too."
Although she had a method to make paper, no one could guarantee that she could succeed.
If she couldn't make paper with the bark of mulberry trees and elm trees, then she would have to lower her standards and make some rougher straw paper with wheat straw.
At least get rid of Tiankai's primitive method of using leaves and branches, right
"real?"
Zhou Lihua didn't think about what use these were to her daughter at all. She was only concerned about making money and giving her a share.
As long as you are moved.
Su Qiao calmly picked up the teapot and poured half a bowl of water into his own teacup: "Don't you believe what I said?"
Zhou Licha took out a handful of moldy sunflower seeds from his pocket and ate them while humming twice:
"If it were in the past, I would never believe you, a dead girl, but now, I believe you halfway."
