Chapter 32 Fifteen thousand catties of grain

"Too much? Then just stay in the third room and never think of going back to the fourth room in your life."

It turned out that although Mistress Ye had promised to let Ye Dashi return to the fourth room, she was still waiting here.

The four members of Ye Dashi's family are about ninety years old in total. Excluding the sixteen years that Ye Dashi's daughter-in-law lived in her parents' home and the two years that Ye Dashi lived in the fourth room when he was a child, they also have more than seventy years. That's 200 kilograms a year. Rounding up, we get one

Fifteen thousand catties of grain.

With this amount of food, the people in Sanfang will not be afraid of starving to death.

Two-thirds of this grain was exchanged for silver, which was enough to build four brick houses with three rooms.

Mistress Ye also needs a lot of support in her old age. The savings that Ye Dashi and her family have worked hard for a year are enough to support Mistress Ye.

With enough food and a brick house to live in, after Ye Dashi returns to the fourth house, the third house will not suffer.

However, the negotiations suddenly reached a deadlock.

There was too much food, and the clan did not have ten thousand kilograms of food in stock. Ye Dashi simply could not afford this amount of food.

Finally, it was Ye Youran who came forward, "Great-grandfather, since we don't have so much food, I think it's better to convert the food into silver and give the money directly to our fourth house. However, I also have a request. Since my fourth uncle has returned to the fourth house, from now on

Even for the people in the fourth house, there is no rule for the fourth house to support the elderly in the third house. It’s not like the third house has no sons. It’s not my fourth uncle’s turn to take care of him in old age, so my fourth uncle doesn’t agree to the second request made by the mistress.”

"Hahaha...Ye Dashi, look at it, it's not that I won't let you go, it's that the fourth room won't let you go back."

At this time, Mistress Ye is still stirring up trouble.

Ye Dashi was not angry, "Xiao You, I don't blame you for this. If I do, blame the fourth uncle for his lack of ability. The fourth uncle can't afford so much money, so let's forget about it."

Although he wanted to leave the third room with his wife and children and escape the abuse of the third room, he couldn't afford so much money. He couldn't let Xiaoyou and his children help him pay for it.

Looking at his young and frail niece, Ye Dashi finally refused through gritted teeth and tears.

"Third wife, fourth uncle, I haven't finished speaking yet. I don't agree with my fourth uncle giving the third wife food for her retirement every year, but I agree to give it once."

Mistress Ye was stunned, "Really?"

"Mistress, tell me the number!"

In Ye Youran's heart, anything that can be done with money is nothing. Although she doesn't have much money now, she has a system.

As long as she has points, she can get as much food as she needs.

But bringing out too much grain was too conspicuous, so she planned to secretly exchange the grain for money.

Ye Dawu jumped out and muttered, "My mother can eat a thousand kilograms of grain a year, so it takes thirty years and all of it is converted into silver."

A thousand pounds?

Are you sure this is raising people, not pigs?

Now, even the tribesmen who had already gathered around to watch the fun couldn't stand it anymore.

"Ye Dawu, you are so big as a lion. One thousand kilograms of grain a year is enough to feed your whole family, not to mention your mother."

"Ye Dawu, are you crazy because of your poverty?"

"Haha... I think he is not crazy poor, but extremely rich. He can raise a God of Wealth just by washing a pot of water."

"Ye Dawu, your third wife has always been supported by Ye Dashi. Your mother has raised Ye Dashi for a few years, but Ye Dashi has raised the third wife for decades. How to settle this account?"

There are also smart people in the clan who speak to the point.
