In April, news finally came from the Xia family.

Xia Rantang decided on her mother-in-law's family, the other party was a cousin of her grandfather's family, the son of her cousin's mother, I heard that he was still a widower, his wife had only been dead for three months, and he had two children, one was five years old and the other was only two years old.

"When you enter the door, you want to be a stepmother?" Xi Feng was very surprised, he didn't expect that the Xia family would set such a family affair for Xia Rantang.

She thought that no matter what she said, the Xia family was also a family with a head and a face, Xia Rantang was still Mrs. Xia's most precious daughter, and the Xia family would definitely pick a good one in choosing a son-in-law for her, so she had to be her original wife.

Even if you can't be the original match and be a steproom, at least you shouldn't pick one with children.

This is too much different from being a stepmother and marrying a childless man.

Besides, although Xia Rantang is said to be an abandoned woman, she is also a well-known talented woman in Hangzhou, and a man who likes Xia Rantang can go from South Street to West Street, I heard that before Xia Rantang was set to Cheng Anzhi, the threshold of the Xia family was about to be stepped on by the matchmaker.

It is absolutely okay to marry Xia Rantang to a man who is married for the first time.

But the Xia family asked Xia Rantang to be a stepmother, it seems that Xia Rantang is not so precious in Mrs. Xia's heart.

As if he had seen what Xi Feng was thinking, Su Xin said, "Madam, I heard that a few days ago, the fourth master returned all the shares and silver of the Xia family, and also cut off the supply to the Xia family. ”

The Xia family has two very prosperous foreign goods shops, both of which are supplied by the Chu family.

The fourth master cut off the supply source directly to the Xia family, that is, cut off the livelihood of the two shops of the Xia family.

At the beginning, the Xia family didn't panic, but forced Chu Danqing to come to the Chu family to intercede, who knows, Chu Danqing went back to his parents' house, but he didn't say a word, and went back again.

Because of this, Mrs. Xia rubbed Chu Danqing a lot.

Chu Li knew about this, and Chu Li directly sent someone to pick Chu Danqing back, and then severely suppressed the Xia family's business.

The Xia family panicked at this time, Master Xia and the eldest young master of the Xia family personally brought gifts to apologize, and promised Chu Li that they would not let Xia Rantang entangle him again, and promised not to let Mrs. Xia rub Chu Danqing again, Chu Li stopped suppressing the Xia family.

Su Ping pursed her lips, looked down on the Xia family, and said, "If it weren't for the eldest aunt and grandmother giving birth to three children to the Xia family, I am afraid that the eldest aunt and grandmother would be reluctant to have children, and the fourth master would definitely let the eldest aunt and grandmother and the aunt be inseparable." ”

Su Xin almost couldn't help it, so she was about to cover her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, you can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing." ”

Where did she talk nonsense?

The fourth master obviously has that meaning.

However, he only dared to think about it in his heart, but he did not dare to say it.

Su Ping bowed her head very cowardly.

Su Xin mentioned Chu Ningfu's marriage, "Yesterday, the fifth master came back from Lin'an, the meaning of the old man is to let the fifth master go to the capital again, there are many people here who will add makeup to the eldest lady, and let the fifth master bring it over when the time comes, does the wife also have to prepare a makeup for the eldest lady and let the fifth master bring it over?" ”

At the beginning of February, something happened to the Chu family's ship in Lin'an Port, and two people died, and there was such a big thing as a human life, which originally required Chu Li to go over to deal with it in person, but Chu Li was busy with marriage at that time, and he didn't have time to go, so he sent Chu Wuye over.

Chu Ningfu got married, and Xi Feng, as the fourth aunt, naturally had to add makeup.

She personally went to the treasury and picked out two pieces of her dowry jewelry, and then went to the Chuli treasury and picked out two antiques and two pieces of cloth, which added up to about one hundred taels of silver.
