Chapter 1062 The Bastard is Poor
The Zhao family usually looks prosperous on the surface, but they live a very tight life in private.
Even his mother, the main wife, lived a similarly tight life.
The clothes that he usually wears at home are the ones that he has seen his mother wear for several years.
Still wearing it.
When I go out, I only buy cloth to make clothes during important festivals.
I don’t even want to wear new clothes at home.
It’s not that they are reluctant to do so, it’s just that their life is really poor.
His father usually goes to the study after dinner.
He trotted straight to the study with the box in his arms.
"Fourth Master, what's wrong with you? Slow down and watch your step." The guard standing outside the study yard reminded carefully.
"It's okay, it's okay, get out of the way, I want to see my dad." Zhao Si shouted excitedly.
Zhao Dahai, who had just arrived in the study, sat down to drink a cup of tea.
Then I heard the sound outside.
He stayed in the study, not because he liked reading.
Instead, I can hide here alone, drink a cup of tea, relax myself and have some leisure time.
"Let him in." Zhao Dahai said.
Zhao Si went straight into the study room holding the brocade box.
"Dad, look what I brought you?"
He chuckled foolishly.
"Put it on the table." Zhao Dahai knew it well.
He and Boss Tan had already agreed that the woman from the Tan family must bring the remaining silver on the day she married into the family.
"Dad, don't you want to guess what's inside?" Zhao Si said excitedly.
"What else could it be? It must be the silver note sent by the Tan family." Zhao Dahai knew what was inside without even having to think about it.
"My dear father, you are really amazing. The banknotes are inside." Zhao Si opened it directly and faced Zhao Dahai.
The silver bills were piled up in the box.
Zhao Dahai couldn't help swallowing when he saw the silver note worth 1000 taels.
These tickets, which cost 1000 taels each, are large quantities and are rarely traded on the market.
But who among the wealthy families doesn’t recognize this kind of silver note?
He grabbed it in his hand and brought the box to his eyes: "Dad, count it."
"Dad, don't get tired, let me count them." Zhao Si had never seen so many banknotes.
His mother was originally a concubine, and as a bastard, he only had 20 taels of pocket money every month.
Now that I have grown up, I only get 30 taels.
But for a man of his age, he has to go out for social events a lot, and this amount of money is not enough for him to spend.
"Just stay there quietly. I know what you're thinking." Zhao Dahai knew that his son wanted a share.
What on earth does he want with so many banknotes? There is no way he can get even one.
Thirty taels of silver were more than enough for his socializing.
However, this son has married a god of wealth and he needs to be coaxed home.
He counted them and found that there were 400 of them, which was worth 40 taels.
He counted for a long time, at least three times.
Even though he was a marquis and a general, he had seen everything, but he had never seen so many banknotes at one time.
"Xiao Si, good job. No one can get these banknotes. But you deserve a reward. Use this as pocket money." Zhao Dahai took out a 100-liang banknote from his sleeve as a reward for his marriage.
No matter how jealous Zhao Si was, he couldn't get the banknote.
100 taels of silver is enough for more than three months of household expenses.
"Dad, you have to give me money every month from now on. Otherwise I will ignore the Tan family." Zhao Si said angrily.
That’s 40 silver coins, so many banknotes.
His father was so stingy that he only gave him 100 taels.
You are my, Zhao Dahai’s, son-in-law. You are the son-in-law of the Tan family. How can the Tan family do without you to spend money?
Zhang Dahai gave some advice.
"Now that you mention it, it makes sense. Old Man Tan gave me a small box yesterday, and I have to go see what's inside. It was thrown in the carriage, and it should have been put away by the servants. Dad, I won't say any more. I'll go and take a look." Zhao Si is really poor, and he is also stingy.
It's because you don't have money that you are stingy.
Tan Yuyan, who was sitting in the room, was stunned.
He took the box and ran away for such a long time but still hasn't come back.
Is he not coming over?
This is Tan Yuyan’s first wedding night at the Zhao family.
Even if she is a concubine, we cannot but give her face and give face to the Tan family.
Tan Yuyan's eyes turned red.
Just now he came over without even lifting the veil and ran away holding the box.
Cai'er stood aside, not knowing what to say.
He also didn't expect that his son-in-law would run away with the box.
It's been a quarter of an hour and he still hasn't come back.
Now Zhao Si was in his own courtyard asking the servant for a box.
The servant hurriedly took the box out of a drawer.
"The young master is here. All your things are kept here for you." The servant said with a smile and a flattering tone.
"What's in it?" Zhao Si asked directly.
"How would I know? These are your things, young master. I wouldn't dare touch them without your order!" The servant laughed.
"Get out of here." Zhao Si didn't want his servants to see his wretched appearance.
The servant retreated with a smile and closed the door.
When he opened it, he saw the silver bills inside.
It's 100 taels per piece.
There are 5 in total.
Oh my god, this is more than what his biological father Zhao Dahai gave him.
He just gave him 100 taels of silver today.
He went out for a while and his father-in-law actually gave him 500 taels of silver.
It seems that I will have to see him often in the future. If I give him 500 taels every time I see him, then Zhao Si will be rich.
He chuckled for a while and quickly took out a silver note worth 500 taels.
There was a secret compartment at the back of the cabinet where he hid his silver.
He is the only one who knows about this secret compartment.
His monthly salary has been relatively small over the years.
I didn't save any money at all, I spent it all.
He now has 600 taels of silver in his hand.
He carefully stuffed 500 taels in, leaving 100 taels in his hand as pocket money.
After doing all this, I remembered that there were important things to do tonight.
He also wants to go to the concubine's room.
The concubine gave him so many banknotes.
It seems that I have to pamper the eldest daughter of the Tan family tonight.
"It should be the Fourth Master coming. Madam, please sit down quickly." Cai'er heard the noise and hurried out again.
When I arrived at the yard, I saw that it was indeed the Fourth Master.
There were no extra servants in this yard.
Just the two of them.
Young Master Zhao is happy tonight.
Mr. Zhao Si was in a good mood and saw the beautiful woman sitting on the bed.
When he lifted the veil, he saw Tan Yuyan's face and his eyes lit up.
Tan Yuyan's eyes seemed to contain hooks.
It gives people a feeling of charm and sexiness.
Mr. Zhao Si fell in love with her at the first sight.
Most of the people he came into contact with were dignified women.
