    "In the entire Xu family, the only person that Brother Xu can think of borrowing money from is his fourth sibling, Cheng Jinyue.

    "That's right! I heard that the fourth brother and sister have a lot of dowry. They should be able to lend us ten taels of silver to buy a homestead." Brother Xu clapped his hands and immediately agreed.

    Brother Xu also wanted to respond.  But when he thought of the rude behavior of his two girls in punching and kicking Cheng Jinyue a few days ago, Brother Xu shook his head: "I'm afraid the fourth brother and sister are not willing to lend it to me."

    "I haven't borrowed it yet. How do I know that the fourth younger brother and sister are not willing to borrow it? I see that the fourth younger brother and sister are getting more and more lively now. They should lend it to us." Seeing that the second brother Xu's face was wrong, the elder brother Xu thought for a while and then said  , "Why don't you ask your sister-in-law to tell your fourth brother and sister about this?"

    "Okay! My sister-in-law has such a good relationship with her fourth brother and sister, so we must be able to talk to each other." Brother Xu said.

    Like Brother Xu, Third Brother Xu has also changed his view of Cheng Jinyue a lot recently.  Therefore, when it comes to borrowing money from Cheng Jinyue, Brother Xu also supports it.

    Brother Xu opened his mouth and closed it again.  It must be admitted that Brother Xu's proposal is feasible, and it is also the only way to help him solve his predicament at the moment.

    "What? Borrowing money from the fourth brother and sister? That is the dowry money of the fourth brother and sister, how can I ask?" Brother Xu said that he was going to Grandma Xu to borrow the two taels of silver from their first house to the second house. Sister Xu had no objection.

    Originally, the money was in Grandma Xu¡¯s hands. If Grandma Xu was willing to give the two taels of silver, she would agree to help the second house, and Sister-in-law Xu would naturally agree.

    But when it came to borrowing money from Cheng Jinyue, Sister-in-law Xu immediately refused.

    "Da Ya Niang, it is a big deal for the second brother and his family to buy a homestead. But you also know that our family really can't afford the money. If it is not a last resort, I will not let you go to the fourth brother and sister. Just ask the fourth brother and sister  When it comes to this matter, if the fourth brother and sister don't want to borrow it, we won't force it." Brother Xu also knew that it was not easy to ask Cheng Jinyue to borrow dowry money.  If there wasn't a very important reason, he would never mention this matter to Mrs. Xu.

    "Then" Sister-in-law Xu hesitated again and again, then sighed, "Then I'll try to talk to my fourth brother and sister."

    "Thank you for your hard work, madam." Brother Xu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Sister-in-law Xu with gratitude.

    "Just trying to talk, I can't guarantee that I can borrow money." Sister-in-law Xu didn't want Brother Xu to be happy too early, and emphasized.

    "My husband knows. Madam, just go and tell the fourth brother and sister. It's okay if the fourth brother and sister don't borrow it. The second brother won't take it to heart." Brother Xu nodded and said seriously.

    Sister-in-law Xu finally left the house and went to find Cheng Jinyue.

    "Ten taels of silver?" When the Xu family's second room was about to move out, Cheng Jinyue had already found out from Grandma Xu.  I heard that Brother Xu himself took the initiative to speak.  However, borrowing money was not something Cheng Jinyue expected.

    "Yes. Please don't embarrass the fourth brother and sister. It's okay if you don't borrow it. Originally, it was very difficult for my sister-in-law to talk about this matter. It's really not good to embarrass the fourth brother and sister." Sister-in-law Xu said very ashamedly.

    "It's not difficult, I can lend it to the second brother." If the second brother wanted to borrow money for other things, Cheng Jinyue might not agree.  But if Brother Xu had such a legitimate reason to buy a homestead and build a house, Cheng Jinyue really had no reason to refuse.

    "Fourth brother and sister, ten taels of silver is not a small amount, don't" Although Sister-in-law Xu also hopes that the second bedroom can be successfully completed, she does not want Cheng Jinyue to be embarrassed because of this matter.

    "It's really okay. Sister-in-law, please go and tell the second brother that I can borrow the money, but I have to ask the second brother to give me an IOU. If the second brother is willing, I will give him the ten taels of silver."  Cheng Jinyue waved her hand, interrupting Sister-in-law Xu's worried words.

    "IOU? It should, it should. It was originally the dowry money of the fourth brother and sister, and the second brother can't just take it away casually." Sister-in-law Xu lent her two taels of silver to the second brother Xu, but she didn't even think of asking for it.  IOU.  Now it was Cheng Jinyue, and Sister-in-law Xu nodded in support and agreement.

    Cheng Jinyue smiled and said no more.

    Brother Xu was grateful when he heard that Cheng Jinyue was willing to lend him ten taels of silver.  He didn't have any objection to issuing an IOU.  On the contrary, with this IOU, Brother Xu himself felt that it was very legitimate.  At least this way, he wouldn't have to be criticized by outsiders for borrowing money from his sister's dowry.

    "Because my second brother couldn't read, I wrote two IOUs with exactly the same content. My second brother put his thumbprint on one of the IOUs and gave it to me. I gave the other IOU to my second brother to keep. The second brother wanted to  You can show it to anyone to confirm the above content. When the second brother pays off the money in the future, I will press this on my hand.Life is much easier now, and Sister-in-law Xu can also take care of her baby with peace of mind.  There is no need to say more about the subsequent effects. She has achieved it in one fell swoop, so why not do it?

    It would be easier than asking her to always be wary of Xu Ersao, mother and daughter, thinking of making trouble.  Cheng Jinyue made no loss on this account.

    It was two months later that Sister-in-law Xu finally got her wish and moved out of Xu's house.  At this time, Sister-in-law Xu was already six months old, and Fu Bao and Lu Bao were half a year old.

    "Mom, do you want to wean Fubao and Lubao? I seem to have heard that weaning for six months is good for the children." When it comes to raising children, Cheng Jinyue is definitely a novice.  Therefore, while she gave her own thoughts, she also attached great importance to Grandma Xu's opinions.

    "Feed her for two more months!" Cheng Jinyue said it was good for the child, but Grandma Xu didn't doubt it.  After all, Cheng Jinyue had read books and knew more than country women like them.  Moreover, Grandma Xu could see how Cheng Jinyue had carefully taken care of Fu Bao and Lu Bao in the past six months.

    However, many children in Xujiacun are still drinking milk after they are one year old, so much so that Grandma Xu wants to feed her two eldest grandsons until they are at least eight months old.

    "How about we try it with goat milk for Fu Bao and Lu Bao?" Since Grandma Xu said not to wean immediately, Cheng Jinyue nodded and gave the second plan.

    "Goat milk is fine. Niang Gaiming is looking for it in the village. If it doesn't work, we can spend money to buy a ewe." Since Xu Mingzhi went to Yuzhou to study, he has never used the money at home.  On the contrary, Grandma Xu had more money in her hands because of the four taels of silver that the imperial court gave Xu Mingzhi every month.

    ¡°No, in order for her two grandsons to drink goat¡¯s milk, Grandma Xu was going to buy back the whole sheep.

    "Yeah, yeah, listen to mother. I should pay for the money to buy the sheep, and I will give it to mother right now." Cheng Jinyue said and turned around to get the money to Grandma Xu.

    "No, no, no. Mom has money in her hand. Besides, the four taels of silver that the fourth child earns every month should be spent on Fu Bao and Lu Bao. You should keep your own money and don't take it casually.  Come out." No matter what, Grandma Xu was determined not to take Cheng Jinyue's dowry money.

    "My husband told me that the four taels of silver are for me to honor my father and my mother. When he gets the silver medal in the provincial school entrance examination, he will give it to me to keep." Cheng Jinyue insisted on giving Xu a tael of silver.  Grandma, at the same time, deliberately acted coquettishly to Grandma Xu, "Mom, please don't snatch it from me then."

    "You are the only one who dares to tell me in front of my mother that you want to hide your private money." She pushed away the one tael of silver that Cheng Jinyue brought over angrily. Grandma Xu's attitude was very firm, "You are the only mother who has money, and I am the grandma.  Don¡¯t you have any money? The fourth child¡¯s money is to honor us, the old couple, so why can¡¯t we, the old couple, buy a sheep for our two eldest grandsons?¡±

    "Then I've never been filial to both my father and my mother! This tael of silver is considered as filial piety money that I gave to my mother in private. Mom keeps it for herself, don't confiscate it." Cheng Jinyue forced a tael of silver into Grandma Xu's hand  , whispered quietly in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Mom, if you don't have anything to do, hide your private money, let's hide it together as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
