Chapter 368: There is another inside story
"Uncle, what's wrong with my mother?" Qiduo asked busily.
"Hey!" Master Xu gently stroked Qiduo's hair, just sighed, and did not answer the question.
Then he hurriedly left Qiduo's house.
Tan Dejin also looked at Xu with an anxious look on his face, and asked tentatively, "Mingxiu, what did the eldest brother say to you?" ”
"Woo woo...... Xu suddenly hid his face and cried, and then ran back to the room.
The father and daughter looked at each other, both wondering what was wrong with her.
"Dad, you go and persuade your mother, and find a way to find out what your uncle said. As for me, go to the county and ask my third cousin if he knows anything. Qiduo calmed down and said calmly.
"Cheng, then you should be careful when riding a horse." Tedejin advised.
"Well, I know, Dad, go quickly, I'll go back." Qiduo nodded yes, and then went upstairs to change clothes.
It's not good to wear a skirt on horseback riding, it's inconvenient.
It was Shen Nan who taught her to ride a horse during the summer vacation last time, and now when she goes to the county, she doesn't need Tan Dejin to send her there, which is much more convenient.
And Qiduo enjoyed the feeling of galloping on horseback.
As soon as he stepped on horseback, an inexplicable pride surged in his heart.
Qiduo rode a horse and quickly rushed to the Spring Breeze Triumph Building in the county seat and found Xu Youxuan.
Xu Youxuan was settling accounts in the account room, and when he saw Qiduo coming in a hurry, he hurriedly put down the account book and greeted him, "Xiao Qi, what's wrong?" ”
Qiduo saw that there were other people in the account room, so he called him outside.
"Third cousin, my uncle went to my house before, do you know about this?" Qiduo asked.
"I really don't know. He didn't tell me. Xu Youxuan blinked twice. Then shook his head.
"Did my dad go and say anything?" Xu Youxuan asked again.
He guessed his father must have said something. Or did something, otherwise Qiduo wouldn't have come to find him.
Qiduo also shook his head, "I just don't know what he said to my mother, so I came to you to ask, thinking that you may know, my mother cried after talking to my uncle." ”
"Ah, there's still that." Xu Youxuan exclaimed. Then he pursed his lips and thought seriously for a moment, and said, "By the way, I went home the day before yesterday and told my father about our plan, hoping that my father would cooperate with us then." But when my father heard what I said, he shook his head and said that there was very little chance that our plan would succeed.
I asked why.
My father said that if my grandfather couldn't forgive my aunt, even if my aunt broke her leg on her knees, he wouldn't be soft-hearted.
I asked why my grandfather hated my aunt so much. It's all been all these years, can't it be forgiven?
Later, my father stopped answering my questions. Just shook his head and sighed, but he didn't say the reason, he looked preoccupied. ”
"Is there such a thing? Third cousin, why didn't you say a word to me. Qiduo twisted his eyebrows, and things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
Xu Youxuan sighed lightly and explained, "I think about sincerity, the gold and stone are open, as long as my aunt sincerely apologizes to grandpa, grandpa will definitely be soft-hearted." Because grandpa looks like a very serious person on weekdays, in fact, his heart is still relatively soft, as long as your posture is lowered a little, he will generally agree to any request.
So I didn't take my father's words to heart, thinking that he was too worried. But today, seeing that he went to your house on purpose, and after talking to your aunt, her aunt cried again, this matter seems to be really a bit tricky, and it is not as simple as I imagined. ”
"Yes, there must be some secret in this that we don't know. Third cousin, you think this is good, since the uncle is unwilling to tell the truth, can you ask something from the uncle? Seven black eyes turned and said.
I remember that he used to say that his eldest aunt was relatively gentle and loved him the most, maybe he was cute to his eldest aunt, and he could really ask something.
According to the meaning of the uncle's words, the grandfather has not forgiven the Xu family so far, and the reason may not be because the mother insists on marrying the father, but there may be another reason.
What is the reason why my grandfather hates my mother so much? even agreed to raise the old lady's son into that virtuous character.
Oh my God, what a father should do to his daughter, it's a means that only an enemy would use!
Qiduo had a headache, thinking that the matter would be solved soon, but who knew that there were extraneous branches.
I used to think that the relationship between the old lady and the grandfather was just frozen there, as long as the old lady took the initiative to admit her mistake and give the grandfather a step down, the two would definitely be able to release their previous suspicions and renew the relationship between father and daughter. Now it seems that I still think too much about it.
The initiative of everything is not in the hands of the Xu family, but in the hands of the old man Xu, not to mention that the Xu family gives the steps to let the old man Xu come down, but it depends on whether the old man Xu is willing to give the Xu family the opportunity to find the steps!
Xu Youxuan agreed to Qiduo's proposal, saying that he would go home this afternoon, ask his mother about it, and immediately tell Qiduo if there was news.
Qiduo thanked him, and when he was about to go home, Xu Youxuan said with a smile, "Xiao Qi, during the Chinese New Year, you will have a large amount of silver in your account." ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that?" At the mention of silver, Qiduo's eyes also lit up, who doesn't like this little thing with white flowers?
"In addition to the income of our food city, the oven is now selling very well, and several big merchants from other provinces have come to find me and ordered goods from us. By the end of next month, we'll have a lot of money in our money. You haven't received the income from the food city for several months, plus the share of the oven, well, at the end of the year, this big red envelope will be so thick that you can't take it. Xu Youxuan said very happily.
Because the food city has been operating thrivingly, and now the income exceeds the profit of the Chunfeng Proud Building, which is why Mr. Xu praised him to his face.
Now that the Xu family is up and down, no one dares to underestimate him.
And to have today, naturally thanks to the help of Qiduo, if there is no Qiduo's novelty and goodness, without those delicacies, where can the food city achieve today's scale.
"Poof, don't worry, I'll bring the carriage with me. Don't worry about not being able to hold it. Qiduo also smiled and narrowed his eyes.
I was thinking about using the proceeds here to buy a dowry for Erxia. Now there is the income from the Luhuapo side. This money can be left untouched for the time being, and it can be kept for future expansion.
Because of hearing this good news, when he went back, Qiduo's mood was obviously much better.
Back home, Qiduo asked Tan Dejin what to ask.
Tan Dejin shook his head and said that Xu was just sad and weeping, and he didn't want to say anything.
Qiduo sighed lightly. Now everything depends on Xu Youxuan's side to see if he can get some important information from his aunt.
Because the Xu family was unhappy, the atmosphere of the Qiduo family became depressed again.
Qiduo didn't know why Xu was sad and sad, and they had no way to comfort them, so they had to take care of the affairs of the family seriously and not let Xu bother them.
The three sisters went to the sprout shop together to water the sprouts.
"By the way, Duo, the third brother came to you and said that he wanted to discuss something with you." Liuju said suddenly.
"Didn't he say anything?" Qiduo asked.
Liuju shook his head. "No, the third brother is at grandpa's house. Say that if you come back, go find him. ”
Qiduo nodded and put down the water scoop in his hand, "Cheng, then I'll go for a while." ”
San Lang was talking with Zhao in the main room, and he didn't know what to say, which made Zhao laugh again and again, and he could see that he was very happy.
Seeing Qiduo, San Lang was also very happy, "Seventh sister, you're back." ”
"Hey, I'm back, grandma, third brother." Qiduo also greeted them with a smile.
"Your third brother has been waiting for you for an afternoon, where did you go before you came back?" Zhao asked Qiduo, and the smile on his face was still there.
"I went to the county to do something." Seven answers.
"On horseback again?" Zhao asked.
"Hey, yes." Qiduo replied with squinted eyes.
Zhao said, "Next time, it's better to ride less horses, first, it's dangerous, and second, it's better to be reserved and quiet, otherwise you'll ......."
"Grandma, I know." Qiduo hurriedly interrupted Zhao.
I don't want to hear her say that she won't be able to get married then.
Then she called San Lang to leave the Tan family's compound together.
Watching Qiduo and San Lang leave, Tan Guihua pursed her lips and said to Zhao, "Mother, I found that you have a much better attitude towards the eldest brother and his family now." ”
"You stupid girl, now our family has to rely on their family to live, and the future of you and Lao Wu here, we also have to ask them for help, I don't treat them better, and then where can they pay attention to you." Zhao glared at his daughter fiercely.
"That's right." Tan Guihua didn't refute, and thought that her mother was right, and then lowered her head to look at the peony blooming on the embroidery, and said, "However, really speaking, the sister-in-law is still very good, and she is still very careful and serious in teaching me embroidery." ”
"That's, otherwise, I wouldn't have let you learn from her in the first place." Zhao also glanced at the peony, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
San Lang is looking for Qiduo, not for anything else, but for the sprouts.
He proposed that he wanted to spend money to buy a method of making bean sprouts, and came to Tanjiazhuang from the county seat every day to buy them, and then sold them, which was really troublesome, and it was difficult to stick to it for a long time.
And after doing it for so long, he also has some savings, and he also wants to open a bean sprouts processing workshop, which is the second step of his business.
For his request, Qiduo did not refuse.
The sprouts are made by the old lady with her two sisters, and the three of them are tired enough every day, and when the eldest sister gets married, there will be fewer people, and then they will have to ask someone to help.
As long as someone is hired, the process of making bean sprouts will be known by others, and it will soon spread.
No invention can be permanently in the hands of a single person.
Qiduo told Saburo the production process of bean sprouts in detail and seriously, and asked him to follow the Xu family and the others to see how to learn.
Qiduo is very pleased with Sanlang's unscrupulous behavior, unlike the Erlang brothers, who were sneaky, and the result was that stealing chickens did not become a handful of rice.
And Saburo is also very grateful for Qiduo's great help.
Qiduo smiled and encouraged him, let him do it well, and everyone made a fortune together.
Saburo nodded earnestly, saying that he would definitely do so.
He left satisfied.
Early the next morning, Xu Youxuan and Wen Xiuyi hurried over together.
Xu Youxuan's face was as gloomy as Master Xu. (To be continued......)
