Chapter 407: Two into One
Wei Hong couldn't sleep.
From being stunned to pondering, after completely clearing up everything today, she finally laughed.
After half a day's work, two avenues appeared in front of her eyes. What she was struggling with at the moment was not which one to choose, but she was surprised that the means required for the two paths were surprisingly identical.
Hahaha, she was speechless.
In addition to choosing her, Zhu Changjue and Concubine Zhao calculated the same. That's it, the key is that the final backstabber in their photos is still the same person!
Tsk, the one who was calculated and the one who took the blame, how much do you hate?
Wei Hong can be regarded as planning for himself.
Since doing the same thing, in addition to making herself happy, she can also reap two benefits, so she naturally has to do this thing.
If Zhu Changjue does what she says, she will take Concubine Zhao's handle to him at that time, which can be regarded as her dowry and heart......
But Zhu Changjue always told her to be unsteady, in case she ...... He crossed the river and demolished the bridge, then she used Concubine Zhao's handle to pinch and threaten Zhu Changan to save herself, and she could still get what she wanted......
After figuring out all the joints, she finally got smarter, Concubine Zhao and Zhu Changjue were both playing the same calculation, and she didn't leak a word.
She figured out that her biggest advantage was that in this whole drama, she was the only one who knew the opinions of the two people and the direction of events.
As long as she has this advantage, she will be able to harvest everything she wants.
She went through her thoughts over and over again, thought about it, and went back and forth, and finally made sure that there were no loopholes, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Joyfully!
Go to sleep.
When she woke up, she began to arrange.
She can take down three sluts she hates in one go!
With this gain, even if she doesn't benefit, she is willing......
And the Cheng family that night, there were also people who jumped a lot.
Cheng Rui!
He had been under house arrest long enough.
He's furious!
When the royal driver went south, so many people went to Jinling to attend the birthday banquet, but the old man would rather give the quota to Hongyu than let him go! He missed the event, missed the glorious moment when his daughter was canonized, and missed a series of major events closely related to him, such as his daughter's marriage......
And when the saint arrives in Jingxi, he should be released, right? Still not!
When the prospective son-in-law came to the door, he was only allowed to take a cup of tea, handed a red envelope, and sat symbolically in the hall for a short time, and then was invited back to the courtyard again. I didn't even drink a glass of wine toasted by my prospective son-in-law!
The daughter became the county lord, and the son-in-law was a general, but his father was under house arrest, where did he put his face? In the future, who can still take his daughter and son-in-law seriously?
It's even more excessive today!
The saint visited Tao City and walked around Jingxi, and the whole Jingxi was boiling. But he could only listen to the gongs, drums, firecrackers and laughter outside in a small courtyard.
Especially Shengshang also went to the Cheng family's workshop, and he could almost hear the excitement outside a few walls......
He couldn't stand it anymore!
At such a glorious time, as the father of the new county lord and the eldest son of the Cheng family, he should follow the royal car closely, explain the Jingxi terroir to the emperor and the queen mother in high spirits, introduce the history of the Cheng family and pottery, talk and laugh with the emperor, and drink tea and toast together!
That's where he should be! β¦β¦
Therefore, Cheng Rui began to toss early in the morning.
He's going to lift the ban!
But during the day, all the masters of the family went to face the saint, and no one paid attention to him at all. Even He's Hongyu and his two sons are not at home. He seems to have been forgotten in the corner, not even as good as the descendants of the Cheng family.
He waited until they returned.
Crying, making trouble, arguing, complaining.
He wailed and asked how wrong he was, and if he was going to be locked up for the rest of his life? If that's the case, he'll just die.
A toss......
The matter of Liao's Jinyu has been resolved, Cheng Rui's rights have been removed, and after the old man discussed with Cheng Ziyu, he made an agreement with him for three chapters and released him.
Cheng Rui admits that he hasn't done much wrong, but why is there such a severe punishment? He was very unhappy.
Especially after he found out that there was nothing.
His previous silver was used to mend the hole and supplement the Liao family, and the He family was disappointed in him because of the previous incident, and the silver in hand was even more leaky.
And in the few months he was imprisoned, there was no income in his account, and the old man even stopped his "meager" dividends......
How is this good?
The income has stopped, the dividends have stopped, he has not been in business and has not been filial piety and foreign money, and the industry that is sneaking outside has also been uprooted, which is equivalent to having no source of income.
How can you live without money?
It's another commotion......
"The government will give you a monthly bill, one hundred taels of silver per month, is there more!" The old man sent a message and called the account office.
Cheng Rui sneered.
"A hundred taels? It's not enough to eat and drink! What about Hanako? β
"Not enough? Eat and drink at home, don't collect money from you! The four seasons clothes, carriages and horses and other daily expenses are also taken care of by the government, what else do you have to spend? Too little? Do you know how many years my officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty are? How much does the average person spend a year? Beggars? 1,200 taels a year is enough to feed hundreds of Hanako! β
Cheng Rui opened his mouth.
He really doesn't know everything. But he knew that it would cost a hundred taels for a trip to dinner and drink. He is used to being extravagant, and he can't wait to go out to find his old friends to brag about his boredom. Without a pomp of three hundred taels, where is he worthy of his identity?
"What about dividends? Can you give me dividends? "He used to get about 300 taels a month just for dividends.
"Let's stop paying dividends for a year or two. If you behave well, you will be given it back. β
"Well, haven't you been busy lately? The Cheng Family Boutique in the west used to be in charge of me, so leave it to me. β
"No need. I didn't have enough people a while ago, so I asked a few of your uncles and cousins to help. When they returned to Cheng's house to do things, they were very happy and energetic. It's also very well done. β
After a series of accidents at home, Cheng Hui also figured it out.
What kind of house rules, the rules that are good for the long-term development of the family should continue to be implemented.
It is not true that the inheritance of skills only depends on preventing the expansion of the outreach, rather than preventing leakage and being caught up, it is better to run faster and farther, so that all peers cannot catch up.
I learned this from my granddaughter.
For those relatives who left the Cheng family after the separation before, there was something that could be used, and Cheng Hui appeased him again......
Cheng Rui was extremely angry when he heard this, but he was still holding back.
"Is there anything I can do in that house? To be honest, one hundred taels is not enough for me to spend. Give me an errand. β
"You're good at running business, but there's been too much work in the house lately, and you don't need to promote it for the time being, so there's nothing you can do. Of course, if you're willing to do an errand in the workshop, I'll pay you three times as much......"
"Workshop?" Cheng Rui was stunned. "Stewardship?"
"You think too much, you haven't been making pottery for many years, and your skills and skills have long been rusty, if you want to do it, you can only start from scratch. Your technical ...... back then"
"Enough!" Cheng Rui almost roared and roared, looking incredulous. "From scratch? Do physical strength? You asked my Cheng family, a forty-year-old to start from scratch? Do you have to punch me in the face like that? Is it to mix mud or move mud? To load or unload? Do you want me to be the joke of the whole Jingxi? Am I your own? β
"What's wrong with starting from scratch? What's wrong with doing physical strength? Cheng Yi was so angry that he just wanted to flip the table.
Unfilial son! I don't know contentment, I don't know hardship, and my life is still too comfortable.
"Your daughter, your father, your father, your grandfather's grandfather are all from manual work! Rolled out of the mud! What happened to the mud loading and unloading kiln? That's the most basic job! You and me, your daughter Ziyu, are also doing physical strength to this day! Without our physical strength, you think you can get money with just a few strokes of your upper and lower lips? Lao Tzu put aside his words today, only physical work, love to do it or not! β
The old man was really angry. Their Cheng family is originally a craftsman, and doing work is their foundation. Without them, where would they be able to do business?
But the son is so ambitious to this point. As long as he has a better attitude and knows everything, the old man may not take care of his face and arrange a decent job for him!
"Good, good! Those cousins and nephews can sit back and enjoy the success, and you would rather leave the benefits to outsiders than give them to me! β
Cheng Rui was so angry that he burst into tears, and he cried hysterically for a while.
"I know that you didn't look down on me from the beginning and didn't want to leave the family business to me, so you excluded me early when you chose a successor. Do you think I don't know? I knew that more than a decade ago. I've been trying to do it all these years, but you don't pay attention to it. You don't like me for having no skills now, you didn't say that at the time. β
The son was angry, but the old man was confused.
"What did I say then? When did I say that? β
"Didn't expect that, did you? I took the drawings to find the second brother, but the second brother was not there, I heard the whispers of Fahrenheit and her mother, I know that you often talk to the second brother, and you dislike me in front of him that my skills are not outstanding, I can't earn money, I can't take over, and my ability is not as good as him. I know you prefer the second brother.
Later, you became more and more disgusted with me, so I gave up my craft and followed my second brother to run a business. I thought that if I made more money, you would be able to change my opinion of me. But now that the second brother is planted, you still don't look down on me. Yes! Leave all your money to your reformed little son, long-faced granddaughter, and those irrelevant white-eyed wolves! You'll just treat me as a dead man. β
Cheng Rui rushed out, leaving the old man so angry that his chest hurt......
Cheng Rui went to find Cheng Ziyu again. But he found that his daughter was more blunt and insistent than the old man.
"Dad, don't mention the silver. Here's what I can give you. There are only so many. Cheng Ziyu handed over a silver ticket.
After Cheng Rui took it, he was even more furious.
"One hundred taels! That's how much your dad is worth? Your fiancΓ©, your mother and I are both a thousand taels of taels, and that's how you repay me? You give tens of thousands of taels to those refugees you don't know, and you give 100 taels to me? You made me your father? β
"Dad, if you need anything in life, I can prepare it for you. If it's what you really need! But beyond that, there's nothing I can do. As for the refugees, that's accumulating blessings, accumulating blessings for the Cheng family, and also accumulating blessings for you, and that thing must be done. β
"You...... Nacheng, since you all dislike me, then you give me back the shop in Wuxi, I won't stay in Jingxi, I can go to Wuxi, right? "The shop in Wuxi has been taking care of Cheng Rui in the early years, and Cheng Ziyu took over from Cheng Rui a few months ago.
"No, it doesn't. The accounts of that shop for nearly ten years are a bit messy, and they haven't been settled yet. β
"Shop...... Substitution? β
Cheng Ziyu nodded.
Cheng Rui sat down weakly. There were all his people in that shop. The goods of the Cheng family came out of Jingxi, and those who went east had to pass through the shops in Wuxi County, and it was with that hub that he had lived a nourishing life over the years. I don't want to think that in such a short period of time, their hands and feet are really fast......
The Cheng family has a big industry, and the old man may not know that Cheng Rui and Cheng Hao's hands and feet are not clean, but they all turned a blind eye before the accident. Later, since all kinds of moths had to be cleaned up, it was natural to thoroughly investigate and uproot them in order to prevent any future troubles.
The various industries have been picked up little by little, and many people have been invited to take over, and it has been done for a few months, and so far it has only been a seven, seven, eighty, eight
"Dad, isn't it good for you to raise fish and flowers? ......"
"Purple Jade."
Cheng Rui got up suddenly.
"Don't think that you can't live forever if you are noble at this time, have you ever thought that you will always enter Beijing in the future, what will the Cheng family do at that time? Do you want to rely on your third uncle? Your third uncle, can you trust his temperament? You also mentioned your mother, and she still has to rely on me for the rest of her life. And your brothers, who will take care of them? You have to think clearly, if I can't stand up, our Changfang and even the entire Cheng family will ......"
"Dad, that's not something you have to worry about. The old man is fine, he will plan for the future of the Cheng family. "In the future, even if the old man is gone, there will be her and Li Chun.
"The old man's plan? Ha, that's it, I won't talk nonsense with you, I'll ask you again as a father, are you determined not to help your father regain his strength, right? β
Cheng Ziyu answered by default.
"Good, good, good! You are really a good granddaughter raised by an old man, you are really more than one can slap Lao Tzu. One can kill relatives more righteously than the other! Okay, done! Lao Tzu has to keep his eyes open and look at it, which of the Cheng family's industries will be cheaper in the end! Haha, there are times when you regret it. Cheng Ziyu, you are not filial, you have your own day to clean up! β
Cheng Rui sneered, snorted, kicked the door and went out.
The girls came up to comfort her, and Cheng Ziyu waved her hand to signal that she was okay.
If you are not filial, you will not be filial, and it is said that filial piety is difficult to complete. She couldn't do what everyone was happy with. What's more, her father, raising fish and planting flowers is the real salvation for him, it is much better than being stabbed by the Jinyu Liao family in her previous life, and she is not unfilial.
"The master is so angry, nothing will happen, right?" The girl asked softly.
"Something? He didn't forget to take the silver ticket I gave him, what could happen? β
Cheng Ziyu sighed.
What she was curious about was the conversation between Hua's mother and daughter that Cheng Rui overheard more than ten years ago. From this point of view, her father gave up being a pottery businessman, and I am afraid that he will also be calculated by the second room. When I was a child, I heard that her scumbag father was very good at craftsmanship back then.
