Chapter 166 ?? Abacus

Regarding Qiao Ju's regret, Qiao Ju's father said, "What does a golden hairpin count as compared to life?"

"That's right, I really can't say that we won't get the golden hairpin by then, and we'll have three lives. Even this ten taels of silver will be useless."

After taking the purse and looking at the three strings of money in it, Qiao Ju Niang said helplessly: "Oh, if more than ten taels of silver is used to live, it will be a big deal. At least it can be used for several years.

However, for our current situation, it is still too few. Although we have household registration now, if we want to find a place to settle down, we have to buy some houses and buy land.

We can't be near this capital yet, we have to go a little further. This little money is probably not enough for travel expenses.

Those jewelry is worth a lot of money, but unfortunately they have the mark of the Chen family, so they cannot be regarded as it. It is easy for people from the Chen family to find us."

"Don't worry. We don't go too far, so we can save the travel expenses. When we get to the place, we will have almost two or three taels of silver. If we buy a homestead and build a house, we don't need to build a good one. As long as we can almost live in it."

After wrapping the household registration layer by layer, I would hand it over to Qiao Ju Niang for her to put it away. Qiao Ju's father obviously said confidently: "As for the money for buying land, I think it may be possible to have a settlement."

"It's so light? You can get at least twelve or three taels of silver for one acre of land. How can you make money outside so easily?"

Qiao Ju Niang was half-doubted about Qiao Ju’s father’s words. However, seeing how confident he said, she couldn’t help but ask curiously: “How do you want to make money?

Do you want to be an accountant? No, don’t talk about the ability to settle accounts, you are not as good as Qiao Ju. Just say that you want to be an accountant and want to be a property, but you don’t know which year or month you have to wait for?"

As she said that, she sighed again: "But fortunately, our treasure is still young. We two have worked hard for a few years. When he needs to get married, he should still be able to buy two acres of land for him."

"I said I have a solution, why don't you believe it?"

Qiao Ju's father, who had already made up his plan, looked at Qiao Ju's wife helplessly: "I never planned to be a shopkeeper. But I was thinking about raising more pigs. A few years ago, I had a good relationship with the Chen family gardener.

His grandfather had raised pigs. He liked drinking and said everything after drinking. He told me that the secret method of raising many pigs will not get swine fever, which is just right for us to use now."

"Dad, have you already thought about where we will stay in the future?" Hearing this, Qiaoju didn't understand that her father had thought about everything. She hurriedly asked.

"That's right. I've thought about it all. Let's go to the mountain village in the future."

"Wangshan Village?"

Qiao Ju and Qiao Ju Niang both felt that the name was familiar, but they were stunned when they thought about it for a moment.

After looking at each other, Qiao Ju Niang asked Qiao Ju with some uncertainty: "Wangshan Village is the mother's home of the maid who married the concubine of An's family?

I vaguely remember hearing what you said, the concubine was forced by the Chen family’s aunt, and the family finally hid there? Could it be that I remembered it wrong, right?"

"That's right, it's Wangshan Village."

Qiao Ju looked at her father and had guessed her father's thoughts: "Dad, are you trying to sell the secret of the Chen family to the An family's concubine son? That's right? It's just for them. Do they still have the ability to seek revenge on the Chen family and the Lin family?"

"Yes." Qiao Ju Niang said disagreeably, "Besides, when they were forced to leave the capital, there was nothing left. Now that so many years have passed, they are afraid they are still poor and useless. What can we buy the news about us?"

"I don't have to ask them to buy it for money."

Qiao Ju's father said disapprovingly: "The most apologiest thing the Chen family and the Lin family do is their family. Although they can't deal with the Chen family now, it's better to have a hundred days of flowers. The Chen family and the Lin family are always weak, right?

If they wait patiently, they might be able to wait until they settle the score with them? Will An’s family’s property be back then?

But then, no one knows how long it will take. I am not greedy, so I will tell them that it is based on our conscience. Even if it is a hundred years in the future, it is better to be a wise ghost than a confused ghost?

Second, even if we have household registration now, but this place is not familiar with us, which village dares to take us in at will? But if we hand over the news to them, we will naturally be able to settle there soon after with them."

After laughing, Qiao Ju's father said to Qiao Ju Niang, "Haha, it's said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. They may not be as nothing as you think.

However, even if it is really nothing. I would tell you, do I have the secret method of raising pigs? If you have the skills on your body, we can only work hard for a few years and live a good life."

“That’s true.”

Qiao Ju Niang and Qiao Ju both nodded, but Qiao Ju Niang said with some concern after all: "It's just that the Chen family and the Lin family know where they are. The head of the family, do you think the Chen family and the Lin family will come to the door suddenly? Will we all suffer along with each other?"

"No. If the Chen family and Lin family really wanted to kill them all, they would have taken action long ago."

Qiao Ju's father was not worried at all. As he spoke, he saw someone coming with a ox cart. When he saw that he was wearing a dress, he knew that it should be a farmer in a nearby village. He stopped him and gave him a few copper coins and asked someone to take him along for a while.

In this way, the whole family was already far away from the capital without realizing it.

Thinking about the Chen family members, even if they knew they had escaped, they would not be able to catch up with them. The family then breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that it was getting dark, they found a dilapidated temple and spent the whole night.

The escaped slave is not that easy to be a runaway slave, especially the powerful wealthy family like the Chen family.

It has already run far away, but Qiaoju's family is still uneasy after all. The next day, it gets up before dawn, Qiaoju's father dares not delay any more and takes the family into the mountains---

Settling a house, wood house.

Even Chen and An Shenggui knew that Chen's eldest maid Xiangye's family was wronged, but the two of them were still locked up.

They were tied up and threw them into the woodshed. At first, Xiangye's family knew that Chen and An Shenggui had reported to Jingzhao Yamen to investigate the case. They saw that it was already noon and no one came to interrogate them. They still felt lucky.

However, until it was dark, not only did no one come to interrogate the family. There were even people who came to deliver water and food to them, and Xiangye's family couldn't help but feel terrified.
