Chapter 21: The Storm
This gold sore medicine is different from what is always available at home, Jiang Yingxue knows that this is a purple gold pill commonly used by people who practice martial arts, and eating one can reduce inflammation and activate the nerves, and it works very well.
She opened the window and saw the deep night outside, and the lotus flowers in the pond, swaying gently in the wind, but she didn't find anyone, and she didn't dare to make too much noise in the middle of the night.
However, Jiang Yingxue probably knew that Liu Qingfeng had come.
Except for him, no one else will secretly send care to himself so intimately.
Jiang Yingxue secretly took the gold sore medicine, then closed the window, went to bed as if nothing had happened, and the night passed quietly.
On the second day, the news in the shop came in a hurry, and Xia Anran and Rou Niang both knew the major changes made in the business, that is, Liu Qingfeng, who used to be a slave in the Jiang family, is now a complete second-in-command, and everyone has to shout when they see him.
Because of these business dealings, Liu Qingfeng became even busier, and he almost didn't see Jiang Yingxue in person. However, Jiang Yingxue is also happy, after all, the knot between Qingfeng and his father is temporarily untied, and with his father behind his back, he can finally stand up in the Jiang family, and his talent can finally be shown to everyone.
At the family banquet at noon, Jiang Hai, Xia Anran and Rou Niang's room were all there, and Aunt Rou began to investigate.
"I heard today that there is an extra second-in-command in the shop, why does the master value the surname Liu so much? What kind of miracle is he capable of? ”
"Don't ask, that's not something you should know."
Aunt Rou was deflated, and her face was broken.
However, Xia Anran also wanted to know more, so she followed Aunt Rou's words and continued to ask: "Qingfeng, this kid is good, steady, and does things simply, which should be very in line with the master's wishes." ”
"This kid is not a business material, he has a bigger place to perform, but unfortunately, the Jiangjia Temple is small, so I can only let him work under me for the time being."
"Oh, what else does the lord have in mind?"
"He's a talent, how can I give in to him? It just so happens that you are all here today, let me make it clear to you that the Jiang family will be handed over to Manulife in the future, but before this child returns from school. I have to have someone else to hold on, and my choice of Qingfeng means that I have great trust in him. You guys one by one, and be polite to him, especially you, Yingyue, did you hear that? ”
Jiang Hai seemed to see through that Aunt Rou's room would be unfavorable to Liu Qingfeng, so he warned him early.
Jiang Yingyue didn't agree.
"Dad, why do you use an outsider so much? If you feel that you are struggling and you can't get busy with business matters, let the younger brother come back as soon as possible, anyway, he will have to take over the family business sooner or later. ”
Jiang Yingxue let go of her chopsticks: Didn't Jiang Yingyue understand it yesterday? If you really want to go against yourself, then you will have to scold her for a sentence or two!
"The younger brother will come back, but before he takes over the family business, he must also be able to accept it, what are you going to do with him in a hurry now? Do things with a long-term perspective. ”
Jiang Yingyue was also a little unhappy when she heard this.
"My sister knows a lot, but it's a pity that she is a daughter, otherwise she is also the eldest son, and she can help her father take care of business."
"What about my daughter? My daughter can't take care of the business, I have helped my father deal with many things in the shop, you haven't seen it, why bother souring me here. ”
"Yingxue, it's okay!" Xia Anran's eyelids sank, and signaled her daughter not to compete so much at the dinner table, without the slightest appearance of a lady.
Jiang Hai found his old friend's son, and it seemed that a big stone in his heart had been put down, and he didn't pay attention to the quarrel of his daughters, perhaps because the two of them had quarreled for too long, and he had long been used to it, so he didn't make a noise at this time.
He took care of himself and filled a bowl of soup, then was silent for a while, and then said: "In the future, Qingfeng will eat with us, you have to get used to it." ”
Whoever heard these words felt that Jiang Hai was deliberately matching Liu Qingfeng and Jiang Yingxue, so Xia Anran was the first to raise an objection: "Master, Qingfeng is eating with us, isn't it a bit out of line?" After all, he is an outsider, no matter how important the master is, he shouldn't let him come to the house for dinner every day, if this is spread out, what will others say? ”
"What others will say, that's someone else's business, I recognize the wind as a godson, and I can also gag their mouths, now I just don't want to do it so desperately, the old man naturally knows that Qingfeng will use his own reality to prove it to everyone in the future, so I don't need to support him too much, but make a big splash."
Xia Anran has nothing to say now, since the master has already said so much, then he probably knows what kind of position Qingfeng will be in the future. It's just that his daughter is a concubine, and she married such a person, even if the old man values him, Xia Anran's heart is a little unhappy.
Aunt Rou took the opportunity to test her thoughts: "If the master really wants to accept Qingfeng as his godson, it is better to be the inverted son-in-law of our Jiang family, it is more appropriate, sir, you see, Manulife will come back in the future and preside over the family business, he must also have a competent person by his side, this person is a little older, but it should not be too old, otherwise it will be unfavorable, Qingfeng is just the most suitable person." ”
Jiang Hai glanced at Aunt Rou: "As long as you talk a lot, you have a lot of ideas, so how about I point out Qingfeng to you as a son-in-law?" ”
Aunt Rou was stunned.
Jiang Yingyue was even more unhappy: "I don't want it!" Dad, don't be kidding! ”
Jiang Hai sneered a few times and stopped talking.
Jiang Yingxue was like eating a stone, the stalk was in her throat, she couldn't spit it out and couldn't swallow it: if Dad really had this idea, he wanted to point Jiang Yingyue to Qingfeng......
No! You must not be so pessimistic, everything is not decided, you must not be blind!
"Okay, don't think about it, don't speculate about things that have not been decided, the things I have decided have been explained to you, eat and eat." Jianghai ends.
After lunch, the ladies in the house have to rest, although Jiang Yingyue and Jiang Yingxue have constant disputes at the dinner table, but now that he, the biting dog, should also rest and rest, he has long hid in his own house to rest.
But Jiang Yingxue really couldn't sleep, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the rainy season in Jiangnan was coming, and people who were stuffy couldn't find any comfort at all.
"Miss, you haven't fallen asleep yet, have you? I had just returned from my wife's, and he asked me to bring you this plate of pastries, saying that this morning my aunt's family had brought it to you, and that you loved it when you were a child, so I gave you all this plate. ”
