After setting up the rules for his subordinates, Xu Zhongyan called: "Eleven Niang——"

Eleven Niang responded: "Second uncle, Eleven Niang is here." ”

"Did you live well in that yard yesterday?"

"Second uncle, that yard is very comfortable, it's just that Eleven Niang is only a woman, and she lives in such a good yard, I really feel ashamed—"

Xu Zhongyan waved his hand to stop her and said, "Alas, what kind of woman is not a woman, didn't you listen to what the second uncle said just now?

The east wing is generally lived by the eldest son, and at present, there is only one son in the second room, Jun Ge'er, so Xu Zhongyan arranged for him to live in the east wing of the outer courtyard, and the inner courtyard is now owned by Eleven Niang.

Xu Lushi said to the side: "It's exactly this reason, Eleven Niang, you will live in that courtyard with peace of mind in the future, if you need anything, just mention it to Mingyue or Mama Gu, or just find me directly." ”

In the morning, Eleven Niang already knew that the second uncle had promoted Mingyue to be the housekeeper of this family, and Mama Gu was in charge of the affairs of the ladies in the inner courtyard.

"Eleventh Niang thanked the second uncle and second aunt!" she bowed her knees in thanks.

"Thank you, thank you, okay, Brother Jun, Eleven Niang, you two go to the study with me to sit for a while, and the others will disperse." Xu Zhongyan finally spoke.

Because the female dependents all live in the Sanjin Courtyard, the Fuzhong calls the Second Courtyard and the First Courtyard the Outer Courtyard, and the Third and Fourth Courtyards as the Inner Courtyard, and Xu Zhongyan's study is in the Outer Courtyard.

The study should still be being sorted out at this time, many things have not been unpacked and stacked aside, there is only one set of tables and chairs in the room, Xu Zhongyan is sitting on the chair, and Shi Niang and Jun Ge'er are standing in front of the table.

"Eleven Niang, at the end of last year, you asked the people in the old house to use the inventory in the warehouse to make so many ready-to-wear clothes, do you have any plans?" asked Xu Zhongyan.

Eleven Niang said: "Second uncle, the clothes are ready, aren't they just for sale?"

Xu Zhongyan pondered

When Shi Niang proposed to make ready-to-wear clothes, Mrs. Xu and Xu Zhongyan did not explicitly object, mainly because the amount of cloth used was not much, so now more than 1,000 ready-to-wear garments have been made, and more than 100 pieces of cloth are used, but when they are sold, Xu Zhongyan still feels that there is little chance of making money.

Shi Niang said: "Actually, I thought about putting those ready-to-wear clothes in the shops in Shangyuan County to sell, but I thought that many families in Shangyuan County have women who make clothes, so the situation of this sale should not be very good, but it is different in Fucheng, many people here do small business, and there will always be a few people who are busy with business who don't have time to make clothes for themselves."

"Ha, you little girl, you have a new idea

"Second uncle, my niece came to Fucheng, and there was nothing I could do to help, this little heart, I hope that the second uncle will smile.

"This, Eleven Niang, what do you mean?" Looking at the silver in the box, looking at it roughly, there were thousands of taels, Xu Zhongyan said with a depressed face.

"Second uncle, my mother once left me a lot of family property, our two rooms have just moved to Fucheng now, there are places everywhere that need money, how can my niece ignore the situation in the house, stand by, my niece is young, and she doesn't know much about things outside, so other things can't help the second uncle, but this money, I hope the second uncle can accept it."

"Eleven Niang, there is no shortage of money here for the second uncle, you still have to keep the money. Xu Zhongyan said.

"Yes, Sister Eleven, you are a girl's family, why do you have to keep some money around, we will not accept this money no matter what. Brother Jun said.

"Second uncle, eldest brother, my mother once taught me a truth, all problems that can be solved with money are not problems, although my niece is young, but I also know that life is not easy, and now I can only rely on the second uncle and the eldest brother, this money, although it seems to be a lot, but it is just a pile of dead things next to me, put it next to the second uncle, maybe the second uncle can make it money, in this way, the niece will be stained with the light of the second uncle. ”

"Haha, Eleven Niang's words are very popular with the second uncle, all problems solved with money are not problems, Brother Jun, can you hear it, this is insightful, okay, Eleven Niang, since you have said so, the second uncle is indeed a little tight for a while, then the second uncle will accept the money, and when he makes money in the future, the second uncle will return it to you!" Xu Zhongyan said happily.

"The second uncle is polite!"

"Okay, we're all a family, so we don't pay attention to those sour and rotten festivals, so what, I called the two of you here today to ask the two of you what you think about what we will do in Fucheng in the future, Brother Jun, you are the eldest brother, you talk about it first. Xu Zhongyan said.

Jun Ge'er replied: "It's good for the father to call the shots on these major matters, and the son doesn't dare to have an opinion." ”

Xu Zhongyan glared at him and said, "You don't dare to have an opinion, it's the biggest opinion, forget it, Eleven Niang, what do you think?"

Eleven Niang lowered her head and thought for a while before she said: "Second uncle, my niece has just come to Fucheng, and her understanding of this place is not enough, and if you want to put forward any opinions, I am afraid that it is not comprehensive and accurate, but our Xu family is engaged in silk cloth business in Shangyuan County, if the competition in this industry in Fucheng is not very strong, if we can return to the old business......

"Hehe, I have thought about the idea of Eleven Niang before, but, according to your grandmother's meaning, I still don't want it, because the Li family is bound to get our family's silk village, considering that the big house is still living in Shangyuan County, and she wants to stop the silk reeling factory and silk village in Shangyuan County, so if we return to our old business in Fucheng, then the cloth can only be purchased from elsewhere. Xu Zhongyan considered.

"It's good for the second uncle to be in charge of these things. ”

"What's that, Brother Jun, if you have time in the past two days, you will often go out for a walk, don't always be stupid to read at home, although your grandmother's set of principles is correct, but it also depends on people, although your third uncle has taken the exam and come back, but your uncle, you have been reading for more than 30 years, isn't there no achievement at all? So, books are to be read, but you can't take the middle lift as a lifelong pursuit, people, be flexible, you know?"

God, is there anyone who teaches his son like this? Shi Niang said in her heart.

"Yes!"

The two siblings came out of the study together, and Brother Jun asked, "Eleventh sister, I don't know what you plan to do today?"

Eleven Niang thought for a while and said, "Today, I'm going to tidy up the house, I don't know what your plans are, big brother?"

Brother Jun said: "Didn't my father tell me to go out more just now, I just wanted to go out and have a look today, I wanted to ask you to come along, since my sister has something, then make an appointment next time." ”

When Shi Niang heard this, she immediately said: "Big brother, there are grandmothers to help tidy up the house, or I will go out with you, to be honest, I still want to go out for a walk." ”

"Okay, can you go out at the right time?"

"Okay!"

"Then I'll go back and prepare first,
