When Mrs. Lu saw that there was no banana and pear in the water served today, her face immediately sank, "What's going on?" How can it be all hard fruit? ”

Banana pears are soft and sweet, and Mrs. Lu loves to eat them. However, banana pears are not easy to preserve, and if they collide slightly, the peel will turn black, which is very ugly and does not look good. In addition, there are no bananas and pears around the capital, and they have to be transported to the capital from afar, so the price is very expensive.

Lu Changju on the side also pursed her red lips, "Why don't you have my favorite oranges?" Apples, hawthorns, pears...... I'm tired of eating, it's not delicious. ”

Oranges are southern fruits, and the oranges that Lu Changju wants are not ordinary oranges, but unusually sweet lake oranges, because they are scarce and expensive, not to mention, as long as the weather is bad, they will be out of stock.

Qin Feifei endured her anger and said with a smile: "Mother, little sister, the business has not been good in the past two months, and now all kinds of expenses in the house have been reduced by one level." After a while, the business is good, and these are there. ”

The old lady Lu looked pale, and pushed the fruit bowl with her hand with several gold rings, "Isn't business always good?" What's going on? ”

It's really not a good home, I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are! Qin Feifei endured her anger and still laughed constantly: "Mother, don't worry when you are old, business will definitely get better." ”

Lu Changju pouted and said, "Sister-in-law, when your sister is here, we can eat whatever we want, and I have never broken off my favorite oranges in winter." ”

"That's it, eldest daughter-in-law, you should learn more from your sister!"

Qin Feifei was so angry that her stomach hurt, and she vented all her anger on Qin Shuying: Qin Shuying, you cheap hoof! If it weren't for you running the Lu family's business, how could I have suffered such a crime! Lu Changju had already mentioned Qin Yaoyao several times in front of him, what a white-eyed wolf!

But smiled and said to Mrs. Lu: "Mother, you are right. ”

Mrs. Lu is a widow, with a son, the eldest son has a good future, the second son is very good at school, and seeing that it is a good future, she is fluttering, everything must have rules and regulations, and she loves to compare with those who have a thick foundation.

But her rules are also selective.

For example, her favorite rule in her mouth is pomp.

Mrs. Lu herself has two big maids, two second-class maids, two third-class maids, and two mothers. Lu Changju also compares himself to the ladies of the aristocracy, and he also has two big girls, two second-class maids, two third-class maids, and two mothers. In addition, Lu Changxuan and Lu Changsong brothers have two small servants around them, as well as maids and so on.

I also need a porter, a groom, a cook, and a rough mother-in-law...... There are only five masters of the Lu family, but there are dozens of subordinates.

To support so many people, and Mrs. Lu is very "particular" about food and clothing, the Lu family is originally poor, although Qin Yaoyao has worked hard and worked hard, it is just that the whole family lives in a four-way courtyard, which is not as spacious and comfortable as the Qin Mansion.

Qin Feifei took over the past few months, and it was okay at first, the money in the shop was endless, in addition to the dividends to the Xu family, there was a net profit of more than 1,000 taels per month, and there was no burden on daily expenses, and there were still a few hundred taels left.

In the past month, business has been blocked, not only has there been no income, but also has to be reversed; At the end of the year, Lu Changxuan walked around and gave New Year's gifts, and the expenses increased sharply, and Qin Yaoyao had only saved some money in the past two years, and her daily use was large, and her savings were less than one or two in an instant.

Without economic resources, and the savings are decreasing day by day, the Lu Mansion in Qin Feifei's hands suddenly became an empty shell. There was no better way for her to rack her brains.

Back at her Feiqiong Garden, Qin Feifei's face was gloomy, Mother Wu naturally knew all this, and hurriedly helped her to rest on the chaise longue, and said, "Grandma, you are still pregnant with a child in your belly, you can't be angry, rest quickly." ”

Mother Wu was Qin Feifei's first marriage, and the second time she followed her to the Lu family.

"It's all Qin Shuying's little hoof, it's causing me to be like this!"

Mother Wu naturally said yes, and said: "Grandma, there are only five hundred taels of silver left in the public middle school now, and under this situation, the amount of money used next month will still be reduced." ”

The public middle school is the public middle school, and the own is your own, which is naturally two different things.

Qin Feifei said angrily: "Qin Shuying's cheap hooves, she doesn't eat soft and hard, this time, she will definitely want to look good!" ”

Mother Wu echoed: "Grandma, this is all the eldest lady to worry about, grandma just needs to rest." Now in this situation, grandma's body is expensive, so it is better to take the opportunity to ......"

Qin Feifei said: "I know what my mother means, which is to let the old lady take care of the house first, and wait until I give birth to a child." Mom, don't forget, the old lady is the one who can spit out the meat in her mouth when she eats it? ”

"Grandma, it's all slaves who don't think about it."

Qin Feifei suddenly smiled and said arrogantly: "Mom, don't worry, the old lady spends less than a hundred taels of silver every month, it's just a trivial matter." It's better to save money than open source, if you have money in hand, what is a mere hundred taels? Hum! ”

As long as Qin Shuying falls for his mother's strategy, Qin Shuying's 200,000 silver coins will be captured, and his mother will naturally give some to herself, and the income of the shop will naturally improve. The black sugar business will also be its own at that time, who will compete in the capital? Isn't that a steady stream of money?

Not to mention that the old lady is one hundred taels a month, two hundred taels is also made.

Mother Wu's eyes were dark and obscure: Miss, this is this, I hurt Qin Yaoyao's own sister, and now, I want to attack my cousin again?

Suddenly, Qin Feifei laughed, "Fortunately, the old lady only knows chicken, duck and fish meat, and has not yet asked for shark fin and bird's nest. ”

Mother Wu also came back to her senses and joked: "The same is true for the eldest lady, she likes gold and silver and shiny silk the most, and if she likes jade jewelry and Hangzhou silk, it is also amazing." ”

Qin Feifei just disdainful: "Xiaomen Xiaohu, what does she know?" If it weren't for the second ...... She earns a lot of money, they have never even seen a gold bracelet, do they know what is noble and elegant? Full of gold and silver, he looks like a nouveau riche, and he thinks he is so beautiful! Forget it, now she is also discussing marriage, I think the Miao family is very good, the business is big, Miao Gongzi is also a talent, Changju doesn't have to suffer a little when she marries, it's no better. ”

The disdain in the words was clear at a glance, and Wu's mother echoed it.

Lu Changju will be fifteen years old after the New Year, and Mrs. Lu is showing her others. Lu Changxuan took a fancy to a showman, his family background was shabby, and Mrs. Lu disagreed.

Qin Feifei knew what Mrs. Lu was thinking, so she secretly inquired about several families, most of whom were wealthy, either merchants or concubines of large families. Then, he asked these people to send a matchmaker to take a breath, and sure enough, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but be overjoyed and dazzled.

It's just that these people didn't pass Lu Changxuan in the end.

The Miao Gongzi mentioned by Qin Feifei is the son of a merchant family. But this family also has a benefit, Miao Gongzi is now studying hard and is taking the examination to show his fame.
