Seeing that everyone helped him, Old Man Qin was speechless for a moment. Right now, he was either agreeing or not. Before he could think it through, Lady Wang opened her mouth first and said in a strange tone:

"Heh, you're thinking too beautifully. Do you really think you can marry yourself after earning ten taels of silver?"

It's fine if you waste one more ration of food now, but when the big fat kid in my stomach is born, after half a year, you'll also have to climb out of the Second Sister-in-Law's stomach, and at home you'll have two more mouths to mouth. If I wasn't ruthless enough to be my sister-in-law, I wouldn't have starved to death for a girl like you, who's the grandson of my Qin family.

"What I mean is simple. Besides the 10 taels of silver, if you want to stay here, you have to pay 5 taels of silver each month for your meals."

Lady Wang's words did not sound like she was having a heart attack, but the surrounding people all took in a breath of cold air. With a monthly meal fee of five taels of silver, Wang Dahua's brain must have been kicked by a donkey.

How much food can a half-grown girl eat? A hundred coins in a month was already enough to cover the sky, how could she, Wang Dahua, have the nerve to open her mouth like that.

"Wu Ya, don't listen to that Wang rascal. If you come to my house to eat in the future, I'll eat my food, and I definitely won't be hungry for you." In Li Zheng's wife, with a dark face, she interrupted Lady Wang's words. A few women who felt sorry for her immediately spoke out:

"Yes, Wu Ya, come to my house to eat. I want to see how much food rations you can use up, it's worth five silver coins a month. Wang Dahua is crazy about money."

Wang Shi was too used to having no face. How could this enter her eyes? She immediately unceremoniously mocked:

"Hmph, so what if it's five taels of silver a month?" How could I be wrong? Not to mention eating, even renting a house in a city would cost a lot of money. "You guys are quite kind, why didn't you ask this girl to be your daughter and save our family a room?"

At that moment, other than Li Zheng's wife and Widow Wang, the other women were quiet. It was okay to give food to the villagers, but it was extremely difficult to give a room to stay in. The people of the Li Family Village were not rich, although they would not starve to death, and they would not be much better than the Qin family.

Furthermore, the people here believed in many sons and many blessings. With a child, there was no way to not give birth to it. Therefore, every family had many children, so this house was naturally very nervous. If they hadn't married their unmarried children, most of them would have squeezed into the same house. If they were in good condition, then they would have separated from each other. If they weren't in good condition, then there wouldn't be so many taboos.

Although it was not like the modern era, the price of the foundation was much more exaggerated than the prices of houses. According to the rules of the Grand Dynasty, if ordinary villagers wanted to build houses, it was not difficult.

For example, the Li family village only needed to take out its household register and receive the money it had always had, so it wasn't difficult to find an empty space without a owner and get approval. If one had a house, it was just not enough, one wouldn't even need to do anything if one wanted to build an extra room at the side.

However, even if this was the case, every family's house was likely to be very dilapidated. The foundation was not expensive, but it cost a fortune to build a house. Even if one were to build a house made of ordinary yellow mud and straw, it would still be a huge sum of money, needless to say, a house made of bluestone. If they didn't meet a branch family member who had a wife, no one would spend such a large amount of money.

Their children didn't even have anywhere to live, so how could they accept other people's daughters? Even kind hearts couldn't do this.

Rizheng's house was better, and the room was empty. Besides, there was a girl living in the same room alone. If he took her to his house, he could take her with him. However, it would not be a long term solution.

She already liked Wu Ya, so if she really had Wu Ya accompany her, she wouldn't mind. Widow Fang's family had four mud rooms, a kitchen and a house. Usually, Widow Fang would live alone in the main house, with the other room being a trash room, but the rest were all empty.

The widow had wanted to avoid suspicion, so she naturally could not rent it out. Widow Fang was usually lonely, but after hearing that, he started to think. If they really let Wu Ya follow him, with Wu Ya's filial piety, he was afraid that he would have someone to rely on even when he was old.

"How about …" Before Widow Fang could even speak, Qin Wuya was the first to speak:

"Eldest sister-in-law, it's five taels of silver a month for the food. If you don't have the nerve to ask, I don't have the ability to. Wuya did hit the wall once, but you're disappointed. Wu Ya's brain isn't damaged, so it won't work on you."

"No, if you have the ability, don't eat. Don't take a big room all by yourself!" Having said this, Lady Wang naturally could not be bothered to put on airs. Immediately, she raised her eyes and shouted.

F * ck, you want me to live here? I'm not willing to live here under your nose, but I'm still afraid of being robbed.

Wuya was also angry in his heart. He originally planned to stay in the Qin family for a few days and think of a way to move out when he had some money. After all, there really weren't any people living in that shed on the mountain. Now that Lady Wang said this, Wuya's anger was stuck in his chest. He himself was kneeling and crying as he sang to this point, so he might as well just end it.

In Wuya's previous life, he had never had a weak character, and the female warrior's temper was not something he cared about, so he immediately made up his mind. If he didn't want to stay, then he won't, and this old lady will return to the mountain as a wild and unrestrained person.

"Sister-in-law, since you've already said so much, let's make it clear today and ask everyone to be our witness. It's not that I, Qin Wuya, am not willing to be filial, or have a good time, it's just that my sister-in-law cannot tolerate me, and since that's the case, I, Wu Ya, am not someone who will not leave until I die.

Now let Uncle Li Zheng be the master of Wu Ya and let Wu Ya split up, so that no one else in the Qin family will see me in the eyes of others. "

"Nonsense!" How can a girl's family be divided! " Li Shunquan did not expect Wu Ya to say such bold words, and reprimanded him immediately.

"Uncle Li Zheng, it's not that I want to split my family right now, it's my sister-in-law who wants to kick me out. "Even if I were to die from exhaustion, I wouldn't be able to earn five silver taels a month for my meals."

Wu Ya also didn't compromise, but helplessly smiled bitterly and said: "Everyone is here today, so sister-in-law won't tolerate me like this. In the future, you won't be the same as her, why don't you explain it to her today?"

"Five!" You are fooling around! How could a girl be separated into families? Forget about living and eating by yourself, even if you were to say that you have this household registration, you still wouldn't be able to do it! " Li Shunquan's heart also ached for Wu Ya, and his tone also softened.

"Don't worry Uncle Li Zheng, just listen to Wuya, Wuya can't get hungry with hands and feet, it's just making three meals a day is easier than earning five taels of silver per month.

Wu Ya was not an unfilial person. Even if he had enmity with his eldest sister-in-law, even if he feared his father, Wu Ya's mother was still around. Wu Ya couldn't renege on her conscience. Wu Ya begged her uncle to be the witness. She only wanted Wu Ya to be able to move out and leave alone. As long as her father was willing, Wu Ya would still be a daughter of the Qin family.

"If you have good luck in the future and earn money, you will definitely not forget your family's kindness in raising you."

"This... There's never been such a precedent. " Li Shunquan was in a difficult position.

"Following the words of the family, you're right. Did everyone see what Wang Dahua said? It was only 5 taels of silver for food, did she think that the gold and silver dishes cooked by the Qin family were some rare delicacies in the Great Shangguan Family? "Wuya is a pitiful child, but he is also someone who has lived up to his expectations. Don't just look at her as a girl, I think she will have a future." Widow Fang chimed in:

"Wuya, listen to Aunt Fang. Don't be afraid, if you can't find a place to eat and live, come to Aunt Fang's place. Aunt Fang has an empty house and food, so she can't get hungry."

Wuya felt happy and touched at the same time. Indeed, there were many good people in this world. He swore to himself that if one day he was able to live a good life, he would never forget those who had helped him before. Of course, he would never forget those who had hurt him.

There were more and more women cheering for him, causing Li Shunquan's face to change. Although Lady Wang didn't feel comfortable earning five taels of silver a month, she knew that it wasn't a reliable thing to do. Then, she thought about the ten taels of silver she could spend to chase this annoying girl out.

Not only did he save money on food, but he also earned a room for free. When his children were born in a few months time, there would be even bigger land for him to move around.
