Chapter 292: Plan Ahead
Although there are many children of the Zhao family who are officials in the court, but now the court is already in turmoil, except for the big house, the salaries of the rest of the houses are pitiful, and they have to point to Zhao Yuanbai to make the family business stronger, so as to seek more profits, so I don't want the Zhao family to be scattered.
Especially this year.
People's hearts are often like this, sometimes it is only one sentence to gather, but it is often only a few words to separate people's hearts.
Naturally, everyone doesn't want to see the family fall apart at this time.
This is also the concern of Mrs. Zhao.
So when Suninger proposed to welcome Aunt Liu into the house, he didn't mean to refute, but acquiesced.
Back in Ningyuan, Zhao Yuanbai looked depressed, he didn't expect that last night's reckless behavior would have such a bad impact on the entire family.
Su Ning'er was also a little afraid of Fang Cai's own arbitrariness, looked at him, and patiently explained: "Husband, I know you don't want Aunt Liu to enter the door, but there is no other way now. ”
Zhao Yuanbai held her fingers and said with a wry smile: "It's all my fault for this matter, I was careless, and I feel really uncomfortable when my wife is affected." ”
"Don't say that, you and Old Ancestor Jun entrusted this family to me, naturally I can't watch this family fall."
Zhao Yuanbai nodded thoughtfully: "Aya proposed to split up the family today, what do you think, madam?" ”
"It wouldn't be a worry if it was just Gorou and the one in his room who wanted to separate them, but I'm worried that Tao Yunshu would take the opportunity to entrap the rest of the rooms to embarrass her husband", Sun Ning'er looked at him worriedly, and thought carefully:
"These days, I have roughly browsed the account books, the husband's investment in tea gardens in various places in the south is very huge, has reached more than 600,000 yuan, plus Luoyang, Hezhong Mansion scattered out of several places to build Kangning New City and Di shop, cabinet shop more than 400,000 yuan, it is already a lot of expenditure, you have to build a new city in Yangzhou, Suzhou after the year, Di Dian, all need a huge investment, although you have earned a lot of money in the new city in the past two years, but it is completely insufficient to support this investment, and you have to rely on the Zhao family."
"That's true", Zhao Yuanbai frowned: "My Zhao family has been harmonious for generations, everyone is willing to prosper together under the protection of the family, since the old lady is in charge, the brothers of each house are even closer to each other, helping each other, there has never been such a concern today, this year got the privilege of selling tea in the imperial court, the completion of the new city, so that each house saw the opportunity to revive the prestige of the Zhao family, so almost all of them poured their wealth to help. ”
After a pause, he continued: "According to Aya's meaning today, I want my brothers and sisters in the three rooms to be independent, so that if the rest of the rooms compete to follow suit, once they leave their hearts, the money invested will be wasted." ”
"I think that Old Ancestor Jun also took these things into consideration, so he didn't dare to refuse Aya's continuation of the string?"
"Since that's the case", Zhao Yuanbai wondered: "I've never had any opinions, but today I am impressed, I'm afraid that this idea is not something he can come up with, and he would rather offend the rooms than welcome the Liu family into the door, this will is indeed admirable." ”
Su Ning'er felt sour: "Presumably, my husband was not less troubled for me, right?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense", Zhao Yuanbai squinted at her, and said with pity: "I and you have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, whether it is Zujun, mother or uncles in each room, you have been in the house these days, and what you have done is obvious to everyone, you deserve the most honorable position in my heart." ”
"But I ...... after all"
Su Ning'er was a little ashamed: "If it weren't for the matter of Uncle Thirteen and Brother Lang, I wouldn't have asked you to stand up for me and cause these incidents." ”
"Why do you mention these again, I said that I won't let you be bullied again, and besides, the Lang family is a responsible person, Tao Yunshu is so defiled with people, naturally she can't let her."
Suning'er leaned on his shoulder, her heart warm.
Zhao Yuanbai said again: "Madame agreed to Aya today, I'm really worried that when the Liu family really enters the door, how should you deal with Tao Yunshu if she provokes that wicked woman to disturb right and wrong?" ”
After a pause, he couldn't help but sigh heavily: "I heard that the twelfth sister in Wan Niang's family is also a woman with a tricky temperament, and it will be time to enter the house in a few days, these concubines are the most scheming, today Shiro dares to take the lead for Tao Yunshu, I'm afraid I won't receive Tao Yunshu's money, ...... in the future."
"I don't have to live like this in the future", Suning Eryun smiled lightly: "When did my husband become so cranky, but a few women, no more than me, they are all flesh and blood, can they still eat me like demons and monsters." ”
"You are relieved", Zhao Yuanbai stroked her hair bun and said softly: "Madame, bear with me for a few days, today's words of Aya reminded me, no matter how blood relatives are flesh and blood, it is inevitable that there will be centrifugation, since they have already given birth to the idea of splitting the family, we still have to make plans early, and wait for this year to get through, Mrs. will divide the accounts of each room, and the invested capital and dividends will be made into account books." ”
Suning'er pursed the corners of her mouth and nodded, although this is the next step, but Zhao Yuanbai is not unreasonable, it is better to take precautions than to hold Buddha's feet temporarily.
The Zhao family's business is maintained by Zhao Yuanbai, and the rest of the houses only invest money and distribute dividends, once something goes wrong, I am afraid that all the problems will be blamed on him.
To put it mildly, even if these coins are missing, the rest of the houses can still live in peace, but Zhao Yuanbai and she are afraid that they don't even have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
The two chatted in the room for a long time, and Hitomi suddenly came in and said that the old lady was sick.
Su Ning'er and Zhao Yuanbai were in a hurry, and hurried to the old lady's yard.
When I saw Mrs. Zhao, he was lying on the bed, coughing heavily, and the maids took a handkerchief to wipe the corner of his mouth, and when he came out, the white handkerchief was already stained with blood.
Su Ning'er was suddenly anxious, she knew that the old lady was making Zhao Pingguang angry.
Old lady Zhao stretched out her hand and waved weakly, motioning for the couple to come to him.
Su Ning'er took Zhao Yuanbai's hand and slowly moved closer, only to see Mrs. Zhao squinting her eyes slightly, her eyes were deeply sunken, and she couldn't see clearly.
"Ning girl, the old decay has embarrassed you today."
The tears in Suning'er's eyes couldn't help but flow out.
The entire Zhao Mansion, except for her husband, but the old lady treats her sincerely.
Seeing that the old lady had become like this, her heart was like a knife, and she choked up and said: "Zujun, I'm afraid you're tired, and you should rest first, the slave family has already asked people to ask for a doctor." ”
"It's okay, it's okay", Mrs. Zhao held on and replied weakly:
"I'm already an old bone, how can I not have a sickness and eight disasters, San Lang, this kid, I know, he didn't mean to find fault with you, the Tao family, I also know, I didn't agree with her entry at the beginning, but the holy order is difficult to disobey, and she has the protection of the people in the northern ya, cough cough cough."
Zhao Yuanbai squatted down distressedly, kneading it kissing the old lady's chest, and said with relief: "Zujun, don't worry about these things, with me and A-Ning here, I won't let her mess around." ”
Old lady Zhao held his hand and nodded slightly while coughing lightly.
