"In this case, what difference does it make if we separate or not..." Ms. Liu sighed.

Li said: "It's definitely still different. Although I can't say it, but if the family is not separated, it is one family. If you have any difficulties, everyone will find a way to help you; but if the family is separated, if you encounter any problems in the future,

That’s hard to say.”

"We just separated our families, not our households," Madam Liu said, twitching the corner of her mouth that became a bit ugly, "If something really happens, how can you not help at all?"

"To help is a favor, not to help is a duty." Li didn't say whether to help or not to help, just this sentence.

Liu: "..."

Mrs. Li didn't talk nonsense to her anymore. After calculating the money, she handed the note to her: "Here, this is the salary you have to pay. I know you are worried, so I will give it to your son tonight and let them help you calculate it."

.Despite their young age, they are better at calculating accounts than me. When I usually make account books, my mother will often ask them to help me review them."

Mentioning her son, Mrs. Liu's mood improved again.

She thought that the most successful thing in her life was giving birth to her first and second babies.

The two of them are so good at reading, they will definitely be successful in the future. When the time comes, won't she, the mother-in-law, follow the popular ones and drink spicy food?

Just thinking about these wonderful futures made her feel full of motivation.

In the evening, after dinner, Ms. Liu lit the kerosene lamp and asked Dabao and Erbao to help her keep her account book.

There was no other way. Although my mother-in-law had long initiated the sisters to learn calligraphy together, she still had so much work to do every day. In addition, she was not as smart as the other sisters and could learn quickly, so the matter was delayed.

.

At first, when her mother-in-law was keeping a close eye on her, Ms. Liu learned more. Later, when Ye Yuran started focusing on other things, she let it go.

Seeing Dabao and Erbao remembering her account books beautifully, Ms. Liu was particularly pleased.

She didn't quite understand it, but she just felt that it was neatly arranged and looked very comfortable.

Of course, if the "balance" at the back was also more beautiful, she would be in a better mood.

Erbao quietly tugged on his eldest brother's sleeve and found that his eldest brother ignored him and was unhappy.

——If you don’t go, I will!

With a pouted mouth, she ran to Mrs. Liu.

Of course, when facing Mrs. Liu, he still cleverly put on a "pitiful" expression, and even his voice was a bit pleading: "Mother..."

"What's wrong?"

Erbao wanted to look at her, but he didn't dare to look at her, so he said: "Sir... Mr. said he wanted to buy a book..."

"Buy books?" Ms. Liu was surprised, "Don't you have books?"

Erbao felt aggrieved: "It's not a book. What we usually read is from my husband, which is what we study in class. In addition to studying in class, my eldest brother and I usually read other books. This book is not available from my husband, so we just have to read it."

You can buy it outside."

"How much does it cost?"

Erbao made a "two" gesture.

Mrs. Liu took out two copper coins: "Is it enough?"

Erbao shook his head: "Mom, what can two copper coins buy? It's not even enough for a piece of paper. That book costs at least two taels of silver."

Mrs. Liu took a breath of air: "Two taels of silver?! This is too expensive!"

"It's just expensive, mother. Otherwise, why do you think that everyone can't afford to study? It's because not only do you have to pay repair fees to study, but you also have to spend money to buy books, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones..." Dabao was afraid that Er

Bao made their mother faint with anger, and said quickly, "We spend more than ten taels of silver a year, and that's still a small amount."

"Fortunately, grandma has already bought us pens, ink, paper and inkstones before, and my uncle also sends books home from time to time. Otherwise..." Erbao muttered, "Dabao and I would be miserable. We have nothing, and they are definitely not as good as books.

A classmate in the school."

…

The two little guys were sharp-tongued and kept "fooling" Ms. Liu, scaring her about how much money studying would cost.

There is no way, their mother is a "miser", they have to find a way to get vaccinated first, so that no one will be reluctant to spend money.

In the end, they didn't really let Mrs. Liu spend two taels of silver to buy books for them, but instead "rented" them.

From a two-liter-a-day storybook to a dozen-liter-a-day reference book, the types of books are different and the prices are different.

The two of them chose a book that was not so thin, and spent several days memorizing it. One of them memorized half of the book, and the other memorized the second half. Together with the notes and cheat sheets, they finally finished it.

As for whether they have learned it or not, no one knows.

Mrs. Liu saw that her two sons were so "hard-working and eager to learn". No matter how hard or tiring they were, they still felt it was worth it. She couldn't help but "show off" to Mr. Liu, Mr. Li and Mr. Lin.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the news reached Ye Yuran's ears.

Ye Yuran was a little surprised, because in her impression, Mr. Cen would never ask his students to rent books from the bookstore, especially at the age of Dabao and Erbao, when they were laying the foundation, the books from Mr. Cen

If you can’t even finish studying, why would you want to borrow it from a foreign school?

In addition, Zhu Qi would also bring his "dictated" books to his home every once in a while. It stands to reason that the most indispensable thing at home is books. Why would Dabao and Erbao "rent" them from outside?

Ye Yuran remained calm and mentioned this matter while Dabao and Erbao came to her to report their "homework".

Dabao and Erbao suddenly felt guilty: "Nai, can you ignore this matter?"

Ye Yuran raised his eyebrows: "No matter what? Then you should at least say hello to me first? Tell me, what's going on? It's fine, why do you have to spend money to rent books outside?"

"It's not because of mother..." Erbao pouted and said, "We want to know, in mother's heart, which is more important, money or us."

Ye Yuran looked at Dabao in surprise and asked with his eyes: Is that so?

Dabao didn't deny it, but he looked away a little embarrassedly, not daring to look at his breasts.

"Why do you think your mother likes money more than you?" Ye Yuran felt that this was a big problem. Although she was not satisfied with Mrs. Liu as her daughter-in-law, as a mother, Mrs. Liu still loved the first and second treasures.

fine.

Otherwise, she would not be at ease and carelessly "distribute" the big house, fearing that Mrs. Liu would treat her children badly.

Dabao hesitated, not knowing how to explain.

Erbao didn't have so many worries. He directly said that last time his brother wanted to treat his injury, their mother not only refused to agree, but also secretly persuaded their father not to agree behind others' backs. This time too, in order to take advantage of the family, she also brought

The outsiders come to make trouble.

Listening to Erbao counting in detail, Ye Yuran realized how many things Liu did in daily life, and how many of these things were seen by the two little guys.

Maybe Liu didn't notice it herself, but she had actually had a huge "influence" on the two children, and even made the two children begin to doubt-does this mother really love us?

In the past, the financial power of the family was with Ye Yuran, and Dabao and Erbao could not "test" it. Now that the family was divided and the Liu family was "in power", they began to make small moves.

For such a young child to have such scheming thoughts, Ye Yuran really didn't know what to say.

I had no choice but to ask them to stand closer with a smile, and touched their heads: "You guys..."

His tone was both helpless and doting. If he said "blame", there was no such thing as "blame".

She just asked them, since they began to doubt whether Mrs. Liu really loved them, what kind of result did they plan to get? Even if it was a "test", what kind of test did they plan to do?

In addition to "renting books", they must have also thought of other ways to "snatch money" from Liu's hands. Have they ever thought about what if they "fooled" all the money from Liu's hands?

?

"It's enough to fool you. I just want to know what she will do if she really has no money..." Erbao looked indifferent.

[The author has something to say]

The heroine did not "deal with" the Liu family. The reason is actually very simple: because to her, the Liu family is not important at all. What matters is Dabao and Erbao. They are still "growing", and she needs to give them as much care as possible.
