Chapter 797: Self-improvement and self-reliance

After eating, Wan Hancai and Rudie went back.

On the way back, Rudie complained a little: "What did you do just now to bring up the braised pork recipe?" ”

Wan Hancai said: "I was thinking that if my father-in-law and mother-in-law got this braised pork recipe, they could open a shop in Pingzhou, and you would be able to see them at any time." ”

Rudie's expression softened: "This braised pork recipe belongs to the Gu family, how can it be used by my father." ”

Wan Hancai shook his head and said: "Rudie, this braised pork recipe is so profitable, if it is really the Gu family, why don't these people from the Gu family clan say anything?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Wan Hancai said: "I think this braised pork recipe is likely to be your second sister's." ”

As for where Lin Qingshu got the braised pork recipe, there is no way to know.

Rudie sighed and said, "Whether it's Old Madam Gu's or Second Sister's, it has nothing to do with us." ”

Wan Hancai said: "I just thought that if my father-in-law and mother-in-law could get the braised recipe and open a few braised meat shops, not only would they earn more than they do now, but they wouldn't have to work so hard." ”

Rudie looked at him, shook her head and asked, "How can this kind of rice that can be passed on to children and grandchildren be told to my father." I know you're doing it for my good, but don't say it again in the future, otherwise my father and Le Wei will mistakenly think that we covet the refreshing braised pork recipe. ”

It was really as Rudie expected, Lin Lewei doubted his idea of playing the prescription: "Dad, it won't be instigated by the old witch, right?" ”

Wan Hancai didn't care about general affairs, and suddenly someone must have said something to him.

Lin Chengzhi said: "You don't care what they think, just take care of your own shop." ”

Over the years, many people have made the idea of braised pork recipes, but no one has succeeded.

Zhang's was a little moved, and said: "Master, do you say that you can let Qingshu give us the braised pork recipe." We don't take it for nothing, we give her half of the money we earn. ”

Who doesn't blush with such a big profit, Zhang's has had this thought before, but he didn't dare to speak.

Lin Lewei said a little speechlessly: "Mother, now someone asked you to give him the recipe for the bun filling, and you will share half of the money you earn, do you answer?" ”

Zhang nodded and said, "As long as it is not sold in Taifeng County, of course I agree!" ”

Lin Lewei was a little discouraged: "He wants to go back on his word and open a shop in Taifeng County?" ”

Zhang understood the meaning of his words: "We definitely won't go to the capital to open a store!" If you are not familiar with life, how can you stand firmly! ”

Lin Chengzhi said: "Then do you know whether he makes money or not? What if you want him to say that he lost money? Or that he earned ten taels of silver, but he said that he only earned one tael of silver. ”

Zhang understood the meaning of Lin Chengzhi's words and said, "We definitely won't lie to her." ”

"Then do you think Qingshu lacks this money?"

Zhang shook his head and said, "She earns so much money every year, how can she be short of money?" ”

"Since you know that she is not short of money, why did she give us the braised pork recipe?"

Zhang said: "No one is too much money. ”

Lin Chengzhi said: "You are right, no one will be disgusted with too much money. But the problem is that Qingshu didn't open her mouth, and if we did, it would make her think that we were coveting the marinade. ”

It's one thing to take the initiative to give, it's another thing to reach out and ask for it. He didn't want to let Qingshu be alienated from them because of such a braised pork recipe.

Lin Lewei said: "Mother, if you don't want the second sister to have a relationship with us, such thoughts will be dispelled as soon as possible." Otherwise, the second sister will never interact with us again. Mother, the younger brother is still following the second sister! ”

Zhang didn't support her idea, and he didn't dare to mention this topic anymore.

Rudie came back early in the morning of the second day, and as soon as she saw Lin Chengzhi, she said eagerly: "Dad, I heard my father-in-law say that the second sister is an official yesterday." ”

"What?"

Rudie said: "The second sister is an official, and she said that she was on an errand in the Ministry of Rites, and she still has a grade. ”

Lin Chengzhi was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Really?" ”

Rudie nodded and said, "What my father-in-law said personally, there shouldn't be any fakes." Dad, you said that the second sister is too powerful, and she became an official. ”

When Zhang heard the news, he didn't believe it at all: "How can this woman be an official?" Don't get me wrong. ”

"Mother, as long as you write to ask Qingshu about this matter, you will know whether it is true or false, my father-in-law has no need to lie to us."

Zhang muttered to himself, "How can this woman be an official? If this is true, wouldn't it be a mess. ”

Lin Chengzhi went into the house to change his clothes, and then went to find the master of Wan.

Sure that this thing was true, Lin Chengzhi was in a trance.

Master Wan said: "Brother Lin, my niece is really capable. However, women as officials must have been rejected and suppressed by others, so it is basically impossible to make achievements. ”

Lin Chengzhi feels that being an official is already very powerful, and as for whether he can go up, those are all later.

Master Wan smiled and said another thing to Lin Chengzhi: "In-laws, I heard that you are looking for a female gentleman, I don't know if you have found it?" ”

Lin Chengzhi nodded and said, "It's already settled." ”

Master Wan didn't expect him to be so fast, and couldn't help asking, "I don't know whose family it is?" ”

"The daughter of the shopkeeper Duan, she once studied at the Pingzhou Women's School, and her grades were excellent."

This shopkeeper Duan is the person who took a lot of care of Lin Chengzhi in the teahouse back then.

Master Wan was stunned for a moment: "But the Duan family is divorced, can you ask her to be a female gentleman?" ”

"This child has a dignified character, and she is divorced because her mother-in-law is bitter and mean, and her husband wants to take a concubine when he is involved in flowers and grass, and she is not at fault."

The Lord asked, "Will your people agree?" ”

Lin Chengzhi smiled and said: "What do you disagree with, it's just that Heli didn't do anything illegal and undisciplined." ”

When Wan Zhushu heard this, he didn't continue.

Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles, and soon the patriarch of the Lin family knew to the clansmen that the gentleman he invited was Heli. Many people had scruples and ran to talk to the patriarch.

The patriarch found Lin Chengzhi and said to him: "Chengzhi, no matter how you can't invite a divorced woman to teach our children!" Otherwise, in the future, the children of our Lin family will learn the same, so how can we get it. ”

Lin Chengzhi said: "Patriarch, I just knew that she was away from home, so I specially invited her." ”

The patriarch was a little dumbfounded: "Why is this?" ”

"It's better to die than to live, and if you can't live and leave. If Ximei had her courage back then, she wouldn't have lost her life. Lin Chengzhi said: "The reason why I support Qingshu to establish this women's private school is that I hope that the girls of our Lin family can be self-reliant like Qingshu, and not like Ximei, who is obedient and doesn't even dare to resist." ”

The patriarch was silent and said, "But if you insist on doing this, the clan may not send the child to study." ”

Lin Chengzhi shook his head and said: "I believe that parents who love their children will send their children to private schools if they know my original intention." ”

The patriarch was still a little hesitant.

Lin Chengzhi said: "Patriarch, you may not know that Qingshu is an official. He served as the secretary of the main and guest department of the Ministry of Rites, and the official of the eight products. ”

The patriarch's eyes were about to pop out.

Lin Chengzhi said: "Who said that you must have a son to be successful? If you give birth to a daughter like Qingshu, you can also glorify your ancestors. ”
