Su Jinxiu thought about it and changed the topic: "You said that you have been pretending to be sick since you were fourteen years old, so have you gone to private school, have you participated in the imperial examination?" ”

Cheng Ying looked up at her when she heard this, and shook her head, "I entered school at the age of seven, and I basically completed most of my studies at the age of fourteen, but later I couldn't participate in the imperial examination because of illness, so I had to stay at home to recuperate." ”

It was rare for him to answer her so seriously, Su Jinxiu took the opportunity to ask again: "Then you are at home every day as Fang just said, only eat, drink and play, and don't do anything else?" ”

Hearing Su Jinxiu ask this, Cheng Ying's expression froze, and then she seemed to have noticed something, and when she looked at Su Jinxiu again, there was more of that kind of fox cunning in her eyes, "What is the purpose of the lady asking this, if you want to ask me if I have real power at home, I can only tell you no." ”

It turned out that since Su Jinxiu started talking to him, he was already planning to find out how much he knew about the Cheng family, how anxious was this woman to divide his property? Cheng Ying thought about it, and her whole face darkened.

Being exposed by Cheng Ying for her intentions, Su Jinxiu was a little embarrassed, but for her own interests, the embarrassment was immediately put behind, and she immediately questioned his answer, "How is it possible, you have no real power, how can you casually use such a large sum of money to buy a piano and give it to Su ...... For the eldest sister? ”

Speaking of this, Cheng Ying remembered that Su Jinxiu went to the old lady to complain that she was scolded, her tone was obviously dissatisfied, and her gaze at Su Jinxiu was also a little disdainful: "As the eldest son of the Cheng family, it is not as difficult as you think to spend money to buy something." ”

"It's great to know that you are the eldest son, but although I am a concubine, I don't love money as much as you think, the reason why I ask you this is just to understand your specific situation, so that it is convenient to plan what to do in the future."

Su Jinxiu said and stared at Cheng Ying with undisguised contempt, and asked him again: "You just don't want me to meddle in the affairs of the shop and the property, do you?" Then I ask you, is the deed of the half of the property you promised just for me to play? ”

If he really dared to make such a big deal out of her, then he would be miserable! Su Jinxiu secretly gritted her teeth.

"A gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, why should I Cheng Ying bother you? It's just that I don't like your temperament of mentioning money for everything. ”

"If you don't mention the money, I'm here to travel to your house?" Su Jinxiu glanced at him, hugged his arms and turned his back. "I don't care if you don't want me to meddle in the affairs of the shop, I'm afraid that some people will not only secretly attack you, but also your property."

Su Jinxiu said this Cheng Ying didn't think about it, but he pretended to be sick and weak, and he didn't take care of it from time to time in the shops and fields, and at most he was lying on the couch in the courtyard and flipping through the account books on weekdays.

As for the bright side, it has always been the eldest lady, the second old man and his wife, and his cousin who have been taking care of it, although he has not been treated poorly over the years, and I am afraid that the family property after marriage will inevitably be plagued by these moths.

Thinking of this, Cheng Ying couldn't help but sigh, "Let me tell you the truth, I never interfered in the operation of the family's business and fields when I was not crowned, I just helped my father read the account books, and I haven't even seen the shadow of my property you said now." ”

Seeing that Su Jinxiu didn't believe it, he said again: "According to the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, after a man has been married for a month, the head of the family should divide part of the family property for him to manage, and then he will not be able to divide all the inheritance until the head of the family dies, so my share of the family property will not be divided until we have been married for a month." ”

After listening to him, Su Jinxiu realized that she had never even heard of the custom of dividing family property in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she thought that the man who had not yet married but had already reached adulthood already had a part of his own property.

"And what are you going to do with that part of yours when the time comes?"

Cheng Ying replied to her without thinking: "Since I said that I would share half of you, I will naturally let you participate in it, but you have never been exposed to these things, so I am afraid you have to learn in advance to prepare." ”

Su Jinxiu also agreed, after all, she can only act, and she doesn't know anything about business and accounting, so she nodded, "Then who should I learn from, and where should I start?" ”

Cheng Ying looked at her and was silent for a few seconds before saying, "I'm afraid it's not realistic for you to learn from the eldest lady, if you invite someone to teach you, I'm afraid the run-in period is too long to help." ”

"If you don't mind, I'm idle anyway, you and I usually get along more together, but it's just to hide people's eyes, what do you think?"

As Cheng Ying said before, in this Cheng Mansion, he and her situation are very similar, anyway, they have already made a contract, and it is not bad to communicate with the guys who manage the shop together, and from the eyes of others, they are very affectionate, and they can paralyze the opponent even more, making the other party think that the two of them are really indulging in love and don't ask about business.

Su Jinxiu thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed, "That's fine, then you can advise me more." ”

Since then, Su Jinxiu and Cheng Ying have stayed in the house behind closed doors every day, saying that they are cultivating feelings, but in fact, Cheng Ying is teaching Su Jinxiu to learn how to run a business and manage a shop.

At first, Su Jinxiu thought that it should not be difficult to run a shop and manage people, but she didn't expect Cheng Ying to tell many routines that she didn't know before, and she gradually looked at this wooden face.

This guy doesn't have a good personality and a dark belly, but when it comes to business, he is the first to go, and in the future, he will break free from the control of those people with ulterior motives in Cheng Mansion, and his future must be bright.

After more than half a month, it was finally the day when the two got married for a month, and early in the morning, Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng called Cheng Ying and Su Jinxiu to the flower hall in the front yard to explain the division of family property.

"Baby, Jinxiu, today is the day of the full moon of your marriage, according to the customs of the Great Zhou, as the father of the family, divide the family property for your husband and wife, so that you can learn to run a business and run the family by yourself......"

Master Cheng said, the eldest lady held a box and handed it to him, and he personally handed it to Cheng Ying, "This is for the father and the old lady and your mother after discussing the shops and fields that will be distributed to you and Jinxiu, and there are some silver tickets, the two of you will collect them, and start to take care of them from today, and my father hopes that you husband and wife can work together and run the shop prosperously, so that those of us who are elders can rest assured." ”

The eldest lady had already had a prejudice against Su Jinxiu after what happened last time, but at this time, she still smirked at them, "If you can't do anything, just ask us, we are all a family, even if we divide the industry, we should still help each other, but don't carry any problems by yourself." ”

The second master and the second lady then said a few words of encouragement to the two of them, and Cheng Ying and Su Jinxiu thanked them together before going back with the box.

Along the way, Su Jinxiu and Cheng Ying supported each other, each holding the box containing the title deed with one hand, and walked slowly step by step, and the people who met them on the road thought that these two people were very affectionate.

However, when the two of them returned to the new house, as soon as the door was closed, Su Jinxiu grabbed the box with Cheng Ying, grabbed the side with one hand, and no one refused to let go.
