Not to mention that the young and frivolous An San Shao took 30,000 taels of silver, and only signed a five-year living contract with the Gao family. obviously gave Liu Congzhi a lot of deed fees, but when he went to the Commercial Tax Institute to settle down, he was embarrassed in every way. When he took painstaking steps to take the deeds of the two shops on Xiheng Street back to Qing'an County, Huaizhou Prefecture, and proudly took out the deeds to ask his parents for praise, he was severely taught a lesson by his parents.

The innocent An Sanshao was punished by his father to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days, and his mother and Steward Huo gave him guidance on the side, telling him that he was a fledgling this time and went to Hong'an Mansion to sell leather goods, not only did he not make a profit, but wasted more than 20,000 taels of silver in vain, what was wrong? Why did it go wrong? And how can it be improved? How to distinguish people's hearts, identify goods, explore business opportunities, etc.

An Sanye, who loved his son, chatted with him alone for a long time on the second day of An Sanshao's kneeling in the ancestral hall. An Sanye used his experience of going out to do business in his early years as an appearance, and woke up An Sanshao, who was ignorant, conceited, and eager for quick success.

Let him realize his mistakes, and slowly correct his mentality, humbly ask his parents and Steward Huo, as well as other shopkeepers in Anjia's shop, and slowly learn the rules and calculations in the mall, which took several years, and finally became a real businessman.

It is said that at noon on the day when An San Shaodian went to Gao's shop, Gao couldn't wait to instruct Mama Zhao, the most powerful woman around him, to take two first-class maids and personally go to Meiyuan to invite Cen Erniang to his Tinglan Courtyard for lunch.

Early this morning, when Liu Congzhi took the An family to visit the Gao family in Tinglan Courtyard, Cen Erniang had already received the news. She bought off a first-class maid around Gao's side who was quite trusted by her, and Cen Erniang basically knew what happened in Tinglan Courtyard.

When Mama Zhao was ordered to invite her to Tinglan Courtyard, Cen Erniang guessed that the Gao family had successfully sold the shop, and it was fake to invite her to lunch, and it was true to give her silver.

Who is going to be reluctant to go with the money?

Cen Erniang immediately took Shuying and Ling Feng and went to Tinglan Courtyard to collect the accounts.

The Gao family was quite jealous of Cen Erniang in her heart, she just wanted to pay off the silver as soon as possible, take over the Yang Erniang couple who betrayed her from Cen Erniang as soon as possible, and eliminate the handle. lest one day someone find out that she killed her concubine and daughter-in-law, so that she can't stay in the Cen family.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, after Gao and Cen Erniang had an untasteful lunch, they took Cen Erniang to the conservatory in the flower hall, dismissed the maids and women who were waiting beside them, and ordered someone to close the door, only to take out a silver ticket of 30,000 taels, pat it on the table carved by pear blossom wood, and Cen Erniang: "The rest of the silver is here." You hand over the IOU, the confession, the letter of identification, and the second husband and wife to me, and the money is yours. ”

Cen Erniang showed her face sideways and smiled innocently, "Grandmother, have you forgotten what I said before?" Mr. and Mrs. Yang, when our family leaves the Cen family safely, someone will send them to you. ”

"As for the IOUs, confessions, and confessions, if you give me the money, I will now give them to you." Cen Erniang pretended to sigh and said, "Alas! I won't tell you the truth, those few pieces of paper are really hot in my hand. As soon as I see them, I think of the good things you and my aunt have done to our second room. ”

"Now my father has been deposed and my grandfather has been kicked and bedridden. In my heart, I am very aggrieved, as if there is a fire burning all the time, and I can't burn my heart. I thought, why do you want to leave the Cen family, it is better to send my father and mother to live in Zhuangzi for a period of time to avoid the limelight. Wait for two or three years, when the eldest brother is admitted to the exam, my grandfather is discouraged, and our family can still be reunited. ”

"What to do? Grandmother, I don't really want to leave now. ”

Cen Erniang watched Gao's face change rapidly, getting darker and darker, and her expression became more and more hideous, so she couldn't stop laughing: "Grandmother, look at your expression!" I'm joking with you. Now you give me the silver, and I will hand over the pieces of paper to you, how about we have peace of mind? ”

The Gao family looked at Cen Erniang suspiciously, "Your family, do you really want to break away from the Cen family?" After you take the money and leave the Cen family, will you really hand over Yang Er and his wife to me? ”

Cen Erniang blinked coquettishly, "Naturally." Although I am not a gentleman, I grew up reading sage books. In front of you, grandmother, there will never be half a lie. ”

"Then Yang Er and his wife ruthlessly harmed my mother and caused my father to be deposed, I want to cut them with a thousand knives more than you." Cen Erniang said the word "a thousand cuts" softly, and Gao Shi felt cold all over his body. She gritted her teeth and reached out to hand the silver ticket to Cen Erniang: "Take it." Remember your promises. ”

"Grandmother can rest assured." Cen Erniang smiled and put a handful of silver tickets into her sleeve pocket, and then said to Gao: "By the way, grandmother, Dr. Zhen from Xinglintang said that my father had better stay in bed quietly these days and not see outsiders. ”

"I'm busy packing, my mother has to take care of my father, and I can't get free. So, those of you who have come to 'comfort' my father and our relatives and friends, I will bother you and my aunt to receive them. ”

Now, Cen Erniang has aroused the Gao family, and she is more and more comfortable: "Also, grandfather and the elders in the rest of the rooms, please also ask you to appease and appease more, don't ask them to disturb your father's recuperation." If my father's illness gets worse, we won't be able to leave. When the time comes, Xifu will have to change people to walk with their burdens. ”

Gao heard the threat in Cen Erniang's mouth, and she wished that she would sweep their family out of the house at this moment. But the clan still needs her to say something, so that the patriarch and the clan elders can release them.

So, Gao had to force a smile while taking the IOU, confession and identification letter handed to her by Cen Erniang; On the other hand, he said yes again and again, and agreed to all of Cen Erniang's requests.

Because Gao was full of resentment at that time, he only cared about cursing Cen Erniang in his heart, but he didn't notice that the handwriting on the few pieces of paper in her hand was slightly different from what Cen Erniang had shown her before.

Gao took the pieces of paper into his arms, preparing to secretly burn them in a moment. She forced out a smile, and when she sent away Cen Erniang's little plague god, she repeatedly reminded herself in her heart: Patience! In a few days, I won't have to face the debt collectors in the second room.

Cen Erniang came out of Tinglan Courtyard, first went to Nuanmei Hall to visit Cen Erye, and saw that his face was still pale, and the whole person was depressed, so she enlightened him with gentle words, and told her to make Gao's and Feng's help for the second room, and also knocked them out of 100,000 taels of silver, which was told to Cen Erye as a joke, and finally, he also described to Cen Erye with longing for the happy prospect of them leaving the Cen family and going to live in Anping Town.

Cen Erye knew his daughter's intention to think about herself, so he forcibly cheered up, paid attention to Anping Town, and counted the good things in Anping Town with Cen Erniang.

In fact, he had never been to Anping Town, so he didn't know what it was like there. It's just that I listened to Zhou's description when I was young, and after memory and imagination processing, I imagined Anping Town as a paradise where everything is good.

Later, when Er Cen's family went to Anping Town, after hard work, they realized that memory and imagination are all virtual, and the reality is extremely cruel.
