[Hand Over (job to somebody else]
Chen Xing, being said so by him, became a bit embarrassed, but still took that book up, carefully flipped it up, until finish reading it, only then with a stunned face, he looked at Gu Lang. He said with some surprise, “We…we used that much money a month?”
Just one month’s lumber money has spent ten taels of silver, not to mention other miscellaneous things, the three of them need as much as twenty taels, not counting Gu Lang’s money for medicine.
Gu Lang looked at the surprised expression of Chen Xing, he was secretly annoyed in his heart. Isn’t he written too much or what, but this is already his deletion of many things Chen Xing does not need to know, and thus came up with the account.
Chen Xing, in a moment after the surprise, quickly adjusted his mindset, felt that the previous Gu Lang, that frail body to support the family must be very difficult. He did not tell himself these things some period ago, means that he (Gu Lang) did not want to let him (Chen Xing) have the same worry with him.
For a while, his heart was both touched and felt a little guilty. After all, he was also a member of this family, but he unexpectedly had let Gu Lang bear the heavy burden for so long.
Gu Lang watched the changes on Chen Xing’s face, from surprise to ‘moved’ to determination lastly. Gu Lang felt that Chen Xing seemed to misunderstood something, but before he could open his mouth to explain anything, Chen Xing opened his mouth already.
“You, don’t worry, I will definitely and properly make money in the future to maintain this family well! If you have anything in the future, there is also no need to keep hiding it from me.”
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s sparkling eyes, for the first time gave birth to a feeling that he did not know what he should say, and finally, after a moment of struggle, he nodded his head to tacitly approve Chen Xing’s proposal.
Chen Xing saw Gu Lang nodded and agreed, then looked at another book, looking at the one with yellow cover, his eyes became even more curious, “This is?”
Gu Lang saw him looking at the book, said softly, “This is the book that I received from being a Jǔrén. The government will send it out at the beginning of every month.”
To Chen Xing, this is the first time he see this kind of thing, he also do not wait for Gu Lang to say something else, directly pick up that small book to look at it. Looking at the above, it clearly recorded the year, month and day, when he receives things, he then fely extraordinarily magical.
After Chen Xing roughly finished reading the things recorded inside, he saw that there was also an envelope placed underneath. He looked at the envelope that looked a little new, then looked at Gu Lang sitting there. The doubt in his eyes was written clearly.
Gu Lang looked at his expression, hooked up the curve of the mouth even bigger, the tone of voice brought the seduction flavor: “You open it up and see it.”
Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang’s mysterious appearance, hesitated for a while, still reached out to pick up the envelope, opened it up only to see the inside was placed several silver checks (in former times) banknote with a value in silver.
While Gu Lang gave him a little encouragement’s expression, Chen Xing took out the several silver cheques and looked at them, and found that the amount of each one is one hundred taels of silver, moreover there are six of them.
After spending some time in ancient times, Chen Xing also had some knowledge of the prices here. As far as he knows, this silver money is enough for a small rich family to live very well.
