Yun Jiao said in a deep voice, "After all, grandfather and grandmother are still here, I think she should stay at her maternal home."
Seeing that the two aunts were about to speak out in opposition, she quickly added, "Of course, her living expenses will be covered by me."
The two aunts quickly turned into a contemplative expression.
Yun Jiao then asked, "Uncle, there are over twenty acres of land at home now, you must earn a good amount of silver every year, right?"
Uncle hurriedly shook his head, "Not at all, after paying the government's taxes and the family's consumption, at most we are left with three or four taels of silver a year."
Yun Jiao then smiled, "Then I'll provide five taels of silver a year as her living expenses, what does Uncle think?"
She had learned a lesson from Zhao Lizheng last time, that you shouldn't show your bottom line too early, otherwise it will only make people push further.
