Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 42: It’s good to be safe!

"Is this like a word?"

"On our family background, can we afford two maids?"

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

The family has some money, but there is money to buy two maids.

But people like them don't have a sluggish life, but they're not very wealthy either. After all, there is a third Xu who is still studying. These days, reading can cost a lot of money.

Aside from things like pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, it's just the cost of taking the test every time. For ordinary people, it's an expense for the boss.

The old Xu family has saved some money over the years, and this time there is another 50 taels from the third Xu, but it will take a long time to come.

Even if Xu Laosan passed the exam next year as a scholar, but if he wants to be successful, he has to continue the exam.

If you succeed in the exam, you should go to Beijing to take the exam, and the cost will be even greater.

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

When the old Xu family was in the most difficult time, Mrs. Xu used it as her own jewelry, and she never spent a penny for her three daughters-in-law's dowry.

This is the foundation of her old lady's ability to stand in front of her daughter-in-law!

In other words, their family is not prosperous now. In the future, the old lady has to write this rule into the old Xu family's family rules.

The daughter-in-law's dowry money is the daughter-in-law's own private house and the money around her. Any Xu family's children and women who covet the daughter-in-law's dowry money are not worthy of being the Xu family's wife.

Whether it is a man or a woman, there must be some backbone.

This is the backbone of Mrs. Xu.

"It should be affordable!"

Old Master Xu smiled, "Our family is so lucky, I'm thinking about it, when the spring starts, I'll go to the town to get a shop, and I'll sell some food and stuff. We grow the ingredients ourselves, but we hire them. If people process it, the cost is not much, and the money earned is excluding the wages of the cook and running the hall, and the rest is ours!”

"Aren't we a businessman's home?"

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

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

Mr. Xu smiled and said, "Scholars, farmers and businessmen, like those who do small business, such as opening a shop and walking around the streets, are actually not considered businessmen."

"We are still farmers!"

"After all, the things we plant and the things we get from hunting and fishing also have to be sold. It's just another way to sell them. Don't worry, I value more than you!"

"If that's the case, open a shop, open a shop!"

Old Mrs. Xu was relieved after listening to Mr. Xu's explanation.

In this regard, Mr. Xu doesn't care at all.

Science and Agriculture? As long as the third child is successful, his family is a scholar. Everything else has become a trivial matter. Besides, the new dynasty did not pay as much attention to the division of scholars, peasants, industry and commerce as the previous dynasty.

In contrast, the new dynasty 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 return to the sea to honor their ancestors, and some people die.

Mr. Xu has no big ambitions, and he doesn't want to shine on the lintel of the old Xu's family. To live this prosperous little life, his wish is full.

It's good to be safe!

Thinking about it like this, Master Xu doesn't feel so worried anymore.

As the old saying goes, the car must have a way to the front of the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.
