Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated!

Chapter 42: It's good to be a little rich now!

"Is this true?"

"With our family's resources, can we afford to support two maids?"

When Mrs. Xu heard Mr. Xu's suggestion, her first reaction was to shake her head.

The family has some money, and enough money to buy two maids.

But families like them live a miserable life, but they are not very wealthy either. After all, there is Xu Laosan who is still studying. These days, studying can cost a lot of money.

Not to mention things like pens, inks, paper and inkstones, just the cost of rushing for each exam is a big expense for ordinary people.

Old Xu's family has saved some money over the years, and this time Xu Laosan's fifty taels have come in, but the future is long.

Even if Xu Laosan passes the scholar exam next year, he still has to continue taking the exam if he wants to be successful.

After passing the exam, it's time to go to Beijing to take the exam, which will cost even more.

Well, Wang married low and brought a lot of dowry money. But it was the Wang family's private house, the money around her, and the foundation for a woman to settle down and live in her husband's family.

During the most difficult time for the Xu family, Mrs. Xu pawned her jewelry and never spent a penny of dowry money from her three daughters-in-law.

This is the basis for her old lady to stand up in front of her daughter-in-law!

That is to say, their family is not prosperous now, and in the future, the old lady will have to write this into the old Xu family's family rules.

A daughter-in-law's dowry money is the daughter-in-law's own private property and personal money. Any descendant or woman of the Xu family who covets their daughter-in-law's dowry money is not worthy of being a wife of the Xu family.

Both men and women must have some backbone.

This is the character of Mrs. Xu.

"You should be able to afford it!"

Mr. Xu smiled and said, "Our family is so lucky. I'm thinking that when spring comes, I will go to the town to open a shop and sell some food. The ingredients will be grown at home, but we will hire people to process them. , the cost is not much, and apart from the wages of the cook and waiter, the rest is ours!"

"Then we have become a merchant's home, right?"

Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, "The third child wants to study. If our family becomes a merchant's home..."

"Daughter-in-law, you don't know this!"

Mr. Xu chuckled, "Scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants, those who do small businesses, such as opening a shop and walking around in the streets, are not actually businessmen."

"We are still farmers!"

"After all, the things we grow and hunt and fish have to be sold. It's just a different way to sell them. Don't worry, I value it much more than you do!"

"If this is the case, just open a shop and open a shop!"

Mrs. Xu was relieved after hearing Mr. Xu's explanation.

Mr. Xu didn't care at all about this.

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce? As long as the third child is successful, his family will become a scholar. Everything else has become a side detail. Besides, the new dynasty did not attach as much importance to the division of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce as the previous dynasty.

On the contrary, the new dynasty also encouraged commerce.

I heard that there was a sea merchant who made a lot of money when he returned from a trip to sea.

Unfortunately, the risks at sea are unpredictable. Some people returned from the sea and came back to honor their ancestors, while others left their bodies dead.

Mr. Xu didn't have any big ambitions, and he didn't want to bring glory to the Xu family. Being able to live a prosperous life like this, his wish was fulfilled.

It's good to be a little rich now!

Thinking of this, Mr. Xu no longer had so much worry.

As the old saying goes, there must be a road for a car to reach the mountain and for a boat to reach the bridge. (End of chapter)
