Chapter 124: I Want to Go Too

Chen Wenhui thought about it and said: "The less people interfere in our affairs on Yizhou Island, the better, I think the eldest brother sits in Xinguang City on Yizhou Island, and let these two cousins follow the eldest brother to learn for a while, how about one to be sent to the Wa Kingdom and the other to Nanyang?" Anyway, Nanyang is so big, our small Chen family can't eat it, and sooner or later we have to take it out and share it with everyone, so it's better to be generous. ”

Chen Yuanheng said: "Nanyang don't say that it is our little Chen family, even the clan land does not have such a big appetite to eat as a family, since this is not as good as letting our relatives make contributions in the past." It was good to send Tian Jingye to the Wa Kingdom, and Bai Junyi to Nanyang. Nanyang still let Lin'er go with him, so as to ensure that our interests are maximized. By the way, last time, Wen Qi also told me that she wanted to go to Nanyang. I agreed, so it was better to let him go too, it just so happened that his wife was the concubine of the Bai family, and Lin'er and Bai Junyi would definitely be able to get along happily. ”

Bai nodded. Chen Wenlin said: "Well, I also agree with this, originally, I have a good relationship with Brother Junyi and Brother Wenqi." It's Wenchang, I don't like Wensheng very much, as for Wen Hao of the second uncle's family, I don't like it even more, my father must not let him go. I'd rather those comrades-in-arms in the clan land go with me to develop the South Seas. ”

Chen Yuanheng understood Wen Lin's feelings very well, nodded and said, "I won't agree to them going." ”

Bai laughed, and Chen Yuanheng was a little inexplicable: "Why is Madam laughing?" But what's wrong? ”

Bai said: "I'm laughing at you father and son. Wenchang, Wensheng, and Wenhao have been deeply loved since childhood, where can they give up the prosperity of the capital and go to the desolate Nanyang? ”

This is very true, Chen Yuanheng and Chen Wenlin both laughed.

This time. Chen Wenhui suddenly said: "Father, mother, I also want to follow." ”

Bai and Chen Yuanheng were shocked. Bai Shi said directly: "You are a girl, why are you going to such a difficult place?" You're not the same as when you were younger. At that time, you ran around and didn't have anything, but now that you're getting older, you're going to start talking about marriage in two years, how can you go so far? ”

Chen Wenhui pouted angrily.

Chen Yuanheng was a little distressed after all: "Hui'er, we are a daughter like you, so we naturally hope that you can be by your side." Besides, there are so many things going on in your capital. It's the Hei's shop, the hospital, the Yangshantang, and the painting, so how can I have time to go to Nanyang? ”

Chen Wenhui said: "The reputation of the black shop has gone out, and now the business is very good, and it is all taken care of by Tang Guanghui's shopkeeper, I rarely care about it now, just send Qiubi and a few of them." Check the accounts regularly and collect dividends. As for the hospital, it has already been built. It's all Aunt Hu and Sister Mingzhu who are taking care of it, and I don't know much about this aspect in the first place, so it's best to leave it to them who know how to take care of it. As for Yangshantang, I have always been taking care of it, but now that it has been built, it is just a daily management, and I think Sister Mingzhu can do both. There is also a painting hall. I have already explained this to a few of my teacher's disciples and his children, and I usually don't ask much. Why can't I leave? But. Nanyang, I invest so much money. I basically invested all the money I have earned over the years, just to build a city that belongs to me in Nanyang, which is a big thing, how can I do it without asking in person. Besides, I am not used to life in the capital, the winter is too cold, and the tea parties, dinners, and flower parties of those girls and ladies are too boring, and I am almost annoyed. I think Nanyang is the right place for me to show my talents. As for my marriage, mother, don't you think it's too early? I'm just eleven years old, huh? Why don't you have until you are fifteen years old before it is time to discuss marriage? By that time, my city must have been built, and I will send someone to take care of it, and I will return to the capital myself, and let my mother use your discernment to pick a good one for me, okay? ”

Bai Shi and Chen Yuanheng hesitated.

After all, they all know their daughters, Chen Wenhui put all her net worth in Nanyang to build a new city, they are very supportive of this matter, it makes people excited to think about it, a girl has a city of her own, that is the treatment that Princess Da Chu does not have.

Besides, although she is older now, she is only eleven years old, and it is too early to talk about marriage, as Wen Hui said, how can a girl's family talk about marriage, it will be after the age of fourteen.

Bai was still a little reluctant to say: "I said that I would be married after the age of fourteen, but this time it is about to come, and there are still three years." In these three years, I want to teach you something personally. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said: "Mother, I am the first smart girl in Da Chu, and I am also the first rich girl in Da Chu, what else does my mother want me to learn?" Learn to be a housekeeper? I can do a good job at the age of eight, can I study the management industry? That's my forte. Learn how to embroider? I can still embroider some simple things, but I have so many embroiderers in Cuijinlou, where can I use myself to make needlework? Besides, even if you don't use Cuijinlou, my own maids have been trained by Cuijinlou, and their needlework is very good, so where can I use myself? Learn to cook? I'm still okay to cook, it's okay to cook at home, and I'm often innovative, but that everyone's housewife cooks her own food? I have a cooking maid trained by Qinghelou to follow, and I can eat whatever I want. Mother, you say, what else do I have to learn? ”

Bai was speechless, indeed, his daughter's management skills are stronger than his own, what else to learn? As for those female workers knitting, cooking and raising flowers, she knows some, and these are mainly for the maids around her. Chen Wenhui's maids are already talents among talents, how to train them?

Chen Yuanheng looked at Bai's, then at his daughter and said, "Hui'er, isn't your mother reluctant to let you go?" ”

Chen Wenhui grinned, ran to Bai's side, threw herself into Bai's arms and said, "I know that my mother is reluctant to let me, but I am really aggrieved to stay in the capital." My mother knows that I haven't been happy at all in the past six months, so my mother still lets me play freely for a few years. When you grow up, get married, stay at your in-laws' house, serve your in-laws, and teach your husband and children, where can you come out? Think about it, I'm going to be circled for the rest of my life in the future, just let me go out to play while I'm still young, right? ”

Bai Shi's heart was moved and said, "Hey, the girl's family is at a loss." No matter how pampered you are in your mother's house, once you get married, you don't have to set rules for your mother-in-law, and a good mother-in-law will treat her daughter-in-law well, but when her mother-in-law eats, her daughter-in-law has to wait. If you meet a difficult mother-in-law, it is simply not a good life. Of course, if you want to run out to play by yourself, it is even more impossible, even if you go to the temple and incense, you have to be restricted. The most comfortable days in the girl's life are only in the short time of her mother's house, and even the princesses in the palace are no exception. ”

Chen Yuanheng was also moved by Bai's words, and felt sad when he thought that his beloved baby daughter would be subject to such constraints in her in-law's house in the future.

Chen Wenlin never thought about this problem, his eyes widened, and he thought for a while and said: "It seems that yes, I have never paid attention to it before, but now that my mother says this, I remember that when I was young, my mother was often angry in front of my grandmother, and even my grandmother's maid could scold my mother." ”

Bai suddenly thought of the miserable life of his former daughter-in-law, and tears were about to flow out of his eyes and said, "Yes, you still have this impression." Of course, not every mother-in-law is so difficult to serve. However, I think I am an enlightened mother-in-law, but, look at your sister-in-law, I love her the same way I love Hui'er, but she is still well-behaved in front of me, and she has not even sat down to talk to me. Look at your sister again, she is so big, and she manages so many industries, and she is not ashamed to stomp her feet, and the earth can shake, and she is still rolling in my arms and being coquettish. ”

Chen Yuanheng and Chen Wenlin both laughed. Chen Wenhui didn't blush at all, she still lay in her mother's arms and said, "Hmph, what's there to be ashamed of." This is my happiness, how many people want their mothers but their biological mothers died early, how many girls are married, and want to go back to their parents' homes to lie in their mother's arms, but can't go back? This is my happiness, I naturally want to enjoy it, why be shy. ”

Chen Wenlin's heart was greatly shocked, it turned out that girls were restrained so much, but fortunately he was a man. However, when he thought that his pampered sister in the family would have to set rules for his mother-in-law in the future, Chen Wenlin felt uncomfortable.

Bai looked at Chen Wenhui lying in her arms dotingly and said, "Hey, you are much happier than your mother in this life." What you said is very true, you have a biological mother here, your father and I want to find a biological mother, where can we find it? My biological mother is an aunt, although she is favored, but I have never called her a mother, until she died, I have not given her filial piety, nor have I done my best, even if our family is now rich in the world, what about it? Neither I nor your father have a mother to honor. It's too extravagant to think of lying in my mother's arms like this. ”

Chen Wenlin and Chen Wenhui had never heard their mother say such a thing, and they were stunned. Chen Wenhui put away her hippie smile and said, "Mother, you and your father have my eldest brother, second brother, and me." ”

After speaking, he hugged his mother tightly.

Chen Yuanheng turned his back on his face. His biological mother died early, and he didn't remember what his biological mother's face looked like, but he remembered that she seemed to be a very assertive woman, and her beautiful face shone with the brilliance of wisdom and wisdom. (To be continued)
