Gui Fang Zhai and Gui Xiang Zhai are only one word apart, and they are not far apart, and then they sell dim sum, which is clearly a business grab, and it is also malicious competition. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Aunt Xia nodded: "It also sells dim sum." Guixiangzhai's business has really been robbed a lot. Speaking of which, this is the biggest and most eye-catching thing on West Market Street in the recent stage.
Xia Zhi remembered that Tian Laibao had told her that his father and mother were very busy these days, just for the things in the dim sum shop. Because of this, he went to Daxingzhuang's grandmother's house to live for so long. Later, his father and mother took him back to Fucheng, and Xia Zhi thought that the matter had been resolved. But listening to Aunt Xia's meaning, this is not the case.
It seems that Tian Laibao was taken back to Fucheng, mainly because of May.
This is really! The little black fish still wants to go to Tian Laibao to play. If you let the people of the Tian family know that they are the people of the Xia family, I don't know what they will think.
Xia Zhi was pondering in his heart, and Aunt Xia had already said to herself: "But the time-honored brand of Guixiangzhai is not so easy to be squeezed down. I've heard that they're developing new dim sum to compare it to Guixiangzhai. …… Besides, the Tian family does not rely on Guixiangzhai alone. There are other shops, as well as granges. ”
Aunt Xia spoke, raising her head to look at Xia Zhi. "I heard from your grandmother that his family Tian Laibao has a good time with you and Xiaolong?"
She didn't mention the matter of May, but Xia Zhi believed that Mrs. Xia should have told her. "It's ok. Noble and my uncle get along quite well. My uncle also said that he was going to play with him when he came to Fucheng. Auntie, see when my elder brother is free, take my uncle to find him. Otherwise, if he knows that we are here and doesn't go to see him, he should say that we are not friends enough. ”
"Okay. Aunt Xia smiled and nodded. She listened to Mrs. Xia about May, and she also knew that Xia Zhi had a good time with Tian Laibao. But Xia Zhi only said that he would let Changsheng take Xiaolong to find Tian Laibao, but he refused to go, obviously because of the May incident to avoid suspicion. Xia Zhi, this little girl is smart and clever, and she knows how to advance and retreat, no wonder the second elder and the little brother of her mother's family like her so much.
Xia Zhi suddenly remembered another thing, and she asked Aunt Xia a little strangely: "The Bao family is also a member of the Tian family, Guixiangzhai has been in Fucheng for so many years, and there is always some foundation." How can anyone dare to steal business from them like this?"
"That's not just anyone. Aunt Xia told Xia Zhi that as far as she knew, the family that opened Gui Fangzhai was also surnamed Tian, and it was not a side branch like Tian Laibao's family, but a person with a surname on the Tian family's family tree. "In the early years, I donated a prison, and everyone called him Tian Jian Sheng. The one who opened this Gui Fangzhai is his brother-in-law. But the capital should still be his. ”
"Tian Jiansheng?" Xia Zhi was slightly stunned, feeling that she seemed to have heard such a character somewhere.
"What, have you heard of it?" Aunt Xia asked.
Xia Zhi thought for a while: "I don't know if it's the same person." She told Aunt Xia about Juanzi, and Juanzi's sister-in-law was a second-room grandmother for a Tian supervisor in Fucheng.
"Oh......" Aunt Xia's face showed a sudden expression, "It's really a person." I know that, too. Aunt Xia laughed for a while before telling Xia Zhi that the Tian Jian Sheng they were talking about should be the same person. Although Tian Jiansheng is not a descendant of the Tian family, he also has a lot of money. However, the reviews are not so good.
Tian Jian was lustful, but the wife he married was fierce and intolerable. It's just that they have been married for so many years and have no heirs, and for this, Tian Jiansheng doesn't know how many famines he fought with his wife. It is said that he stole almost all the girls and daughters-in-law in the house, and raised a few outside, but he still didn't get a son and a half daughter.
In fact, some of these women were pregnant, but they were all beaten by the powerful and ruthless prison wife.
Today, Tian Jiansheng is over 50 years old. The prison guard's wife was also a little weak-hearted.
These words, Aunt Xia picked up everything she could say and told Xia Zhi. Then she told Xia Zhi that Luo Juan's sister-in-law was not a second-room grandmother born by Tian Jian, not even a concubine.
"That girl from the Zhang family made an outer room for Tian Jiansheng. ”
Luo Juan's man, Zhang Cai's family, also runs a grocery store, but it is much smaller than Uncle Guo's shop, and it is not on Xishi Street. The reason why Zhang Cai's sister-in-law Zhang Qiaoer made an outer room for Tian Jiansheng is said to be brought by Zhang Cai and Luo Juan.
"It's just to sell the girl. But Zhang Qiao'er's girl is also frivolous, and she is probably quite willing to do this. ”
Zhang Qiaoer is only sixteen years old, a young flower. After she followed Tian Jiansheng, Tian Jiansheng placed her in a house, not far from the Zhang family's grocery store. All the furniture in the house, the family servants, and all the food and clothing were naturally provided by the Tian Jian students. In addition, Tian Jiansheng began to give Zhang Cai a sum of money.
Zhang Qiaoer is not the first outer room purchased by Tian Jiansheng, and it should not be the last. But what no one expected was that Zhang Qiaoer was pregnant. Tian Jiansheng was naturally overjoyed, and what made him even more overjoyed was that Lang Zhong and Wen Po both said that Zhang Qiao'er must have a male fetus in her belly.
That's the son that Tian Jiansheng has been looking forward to all his life!
If Zhang Qiaoer really gave birth to a son to Tian Jiansheng, she would really be able to become the second grandmother of Tian Jiansheng's family in the future.
I heard that the prison inmate's wife also spit out, saying that if the daughter of the Zhang family could give birth to a son, she would agree to take her home. Aunt Xia sighed softly.
But these days ago, Tian Jiansheng could only temporarily wronged Zhang Qiao'er and let her live outside without a name or a point. Because she felt indebted to Zhang Qiaoer, Tian Jiansheng treated her and her brother Zhang Cai very generously.
"Gui Fangzhai was opened by Zhang Cai. ”
Because his sister Zhang Qiaoer was pregnant with a boy, Zhang Cai felt that the property given by Tian Jiansheng was far from enough. He wanted not only money, but also a cause that he could pass on to future generations. Therefore, he closed the original grocery store and told Tian Jiansheng that he would open a big shop.
Gui Fangzhai was Zhang Cai and Luo Juan's idea, they wanted to make money, so they took a trick. Of course, the shop and the capital are all Tian Jiansheng's. Tian Jiansheng wouldn't not know whose family Guixiangzhai was, but compared to his future son's uncle, he wouldn't put a family out of five suits in his eyes.
After listening to Aunt Xia's narration, Xia Zhi completely understood the whole thing. However, she still had a little doubt, although it was not so important, she still told Aunt Xia.
"My second aunt didn't say anything about being pregnant. ”
"It's only been a few days since it came out. Aunt Xia understood. Because the prison guard's wife was jealous, the prison guard and Zhang Qiaoer were afraid that the news of pregnancy would be known to her, and then she would be poisoned, so the news has always been hidden.
It's a pity that it didn't take long to hide it, especially after the opening of Guixiangzhai, someone who stabbed the matter to the prison lady, and then the neighbors also knew.
"Now I look like it's Xingxingtoutou, and I don't know what the ending will be in the future. Aunt Xia sighed again, obviously she was more concerned about the gossip of Tian Jiansheng's house than the competition between Gui Xiangzhai and Gui Fangzhai, especially after knowing that Zhang Qiao'er still had a bent relationship with her family. "What kind of concubine, aunt, looking at wearing gold and silver outside, where is the actual life so good. That's why everyone thinks differently. If you want me to say, I'd rather be a poor wife than a rich concubine. ”
This sentence, as if the opposite statement is more popular.
The more the aunt and nephew talked, the more dense they became, and they almost forgot the hour, and when they saw Yuhuan coming out of the upper house, Aunt Xia realized that the hour was not early.
"Don't leave Yuhuan, let's eat here at noon. Aunt Xia kindly kept Guo Yuhuan.
Guo Yuhuan hesitated for a moment, but still refused with a smile. "Auntie, another day. I've been out for a long time today, and my mother said that I should go back early. ”
When she said so, Aunt Xia stopped keeping her. "If something happens to your mother, I won't keep you. ”
Guo Yuhuan didn't leave immediately, she also smiled and talked to Xia Zhi: "Fourth sister, Pearl and I have been waiting for you for a long time." Fourth sister, you have to stay here for a few days. When are you free, go to my house to play. ”
"Yuhuan, come over if you have time and help me accompany your fourth sister. If you want to go out for a walk, I'll be much more relieved that you have company. Aunt Xia said.
Guo Yuhuan happily agreed, and then went out. As soon as she walked near the shadow wall, a large green dog suddenly burst out of the side. Guo Yuhuan was startled, oh mom screamed, stumbled under his feet, and fell to the ground.
Da Qing bared his teeth and walked up to Guo Yuhuan and snorted at Guo Yuhuan's body. Guo Yuhuan's heart almost jumped out of the cavity, but his hands and feet were cold, his body was stiff, and he wanted to hide back, but he couldn't move half a step.
Seeing this scene, Xia Zhi was about to jump up and pull away Daqing. But when she saw that the rope and collar around Daqing's neck were gone, her movements paused. Even if she doesn't step forward, as long as she opens her mouth to scream, she can call Daqing over. But in the end, she didn't scream.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xia Zhi was also stunned.
Aunt Xia knew in her heart that Daqing would not hurt people easily. But Daqing's fierce appearance, as well as Yuhuan's paralyzed appearance, still scared her. She hurriedly stood up and walked quickly to Yuhuan's side.
"What's going on? Liu Qiang, come and look at the dog. Aunt Xia shouted. The little guy Liu Qiang had already gone out with Changsheng, and of course she wouldn't recognize Daqing as another dog. Daqing won't listen to Liu Qiang.
Xia Zhi heard Aunt Xia shout, and she also stood up and walked over.
The little black fish came out from behind the shadow wall and scolded Daqing. Daqing was disobedient at first, and finally the little black fish stepped forward and pushed Daqing away.
Aunt Xia was very worried about the appearance of the little black fish: "Xiaolong, go and call Liu Qiang." Look at him biting you again. ”
