Chapter 285: A Huge Sum of Seven Taels of Silver

 Chapter 285: A Huge Sum of Seven Taels of Silver

Shu Yu sat beside the old lady and took out the ten taels of silver notes. Lu Sanzhu's eyes lit up instantly, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, almost wanting to snatch the silver notes away. However, Shu Yu said, "This silver is the compensation those three young masters paid to Third Uncle. I'm afraid Third Uncle might misuse it, so I took it for safekeeping." Lu Sanzhu immediately shook his head and said, "I won't misuse it." Shu Yu chuckled and ignored him, continuing to speak to the old lady, "Grandmother, how about we entrust these silver notes to Third Aunt for safekeeping?" The old lady nodded and said, "It should be given to Liang Shi. Although Third Aunt is lazy and useless, she knows how to hold onto money. We don't need to worry about her using this money to support her family." In this regard, the old lady admired Liang Shi. If you say that the third son's family is poor, they still managed to raise their eldest son so plump and healthy. If you say they have money, they cry poverty every day and never change their torn clothes, as if they've never eaten before whenever they see food. Later, the old lady finally understood. Liang Shi couldn't take advantage of her as a mother-in-law, so she went to exploit others elsewhere. She would return to her family and complain to her siblings, crying poverty every time, and never come back empty-handed. Every now and then, she would leave her son at her family's house, claiming to be busy and asking her in-laws to take care of him for a couple of days. Just like today, the couple came to the county town, leaving Da Bao and Bao Ya at her family's house. Not only did her family have to take care of the children's food and daily needs, they might not even bring them back home at night. So Liang Shi was capable of saving money. If the silver was given to her, the old lady could trust her not to spend it recklessly. Shu Yu nodded and glanced at Lu Sanzhu, saying, "Third Uncle, what do you think?" Lu Sanzhu thought that he wouldn't be able to get the silver back, so naturally, he had no objections. "Sure, sure, let my wife handle it at home." "But," Shu Yu suddenly added, "you and Big Uncle have been separated for so many years, and according to the rules, you should be giving Grandmother her pension every year. Eldest Uncle has always sent it on time, but you..." Lu Sanzhu's scalp tingled. It was already good enough that he didn't take money from the old lady's side. He really hadn't given her any pension money. Shuyu smiled and said, "So, let's set aside two taels of silver as compensation for Grandmother's pension. Is that alright?" Lu Sanzhu let out a sigh of relief. It was just two taels of silver, no problem. "Of course, no problem. Not only these two taels, but also in the future, when I start earning a salary, I will give my mother the money on time every month." In front of Shu Yu, he always acted like a good person. Not only was the old lady surprised, even Da Ya and Lan Hua looked at Lu Sanzhu as if they didn't recognize him. Shu Yu nodded. "Also, the gratitude gifts we bought for soldier Hu and Tang Xiucai, the money should come from this as well." "That's reasonable." Finally, Shu Yu divided three taels of silver, leaving the remaining seven taels for Liang Shi, who had just walked out of the kitchen. Liang Shi hadn't heard their conversation earlier, so she was caught off guard by this huge sum of money that suddenly appeared in front of her. She almost dropped the ginger soup she was holding. She had thought that Shuyu had only managed to retrieve a small amount of silver and had taken it for herself. Who would have thought that Shuyu actually gave it to them to handle. Seven taels of silver! It had been so long since she had seen so much money. She was going to be rich. Special thanks to these patrons for their support!!!
