The expressions of all the ladies changed slightly, but some of them were not obvious.

Lord Zhang, the secretary of the ministry, was only a temporary replacement, and although he had been temporarily replaced for several years, the emperor did not directly appoint him.

This is a slap in the face to Lord Zhang, but it is also a glory that many people can't ask for, and there is a chance to have a chance.

But the previous secretary has returned to his hometown, and Lord Zhang also has the opportunity to be officially appointed as the secretary of the ministry, so Mrs. Yun must not be given a post to Mrs. Zhang.

Everyone knows that Song Yao has amnesia and doesn't remember her identity, Mrs. Zhang said such things on such an occasion, she was obviously embarrassing Song Yao, and why wasn't she slapping Mrs. Yun in the face?

Naturally, Mrs. Zhang also said that the Yun family would slap Song Yao because of Song Yao's ability to make money, which was provoking the relationship between the Yun and Song families.

Mrs. Yun pursed her lips, and when she saw that Song Yao was always smiling, she didn't make a sound, she also wanted to see how Song Yao would deal with Mrs. Zhang.

Several other ladies also have this kind of thought, and Mrs. Zhang is not targeting them, and they are not good to help too early, after all, the dispute of words in the back house has a lot to do with the men's 'harmony' in the imperial court.

"What Mrs. Zhang said is that I have made such a big business and hope to reunite with my family one day. No matter why I lost my memory at the time, now that I have not disgraced my ancestors, I must have recognized my relatives, and I will only be proud of me. Song Yao opened her mouth lightly, put down her chopsticks and said: "Although Song Yao has made some achievements, she can't compare to Mrs. Zhang, and her wife is more expensive than her husband, which is really enviable." ”

"Yes, women still have to respect their husbands, but they can't show their heads at every turn, that's what lowly people do." Mrs. Zhang snorted.

The Yun family is a merchant, although women don't do business on a large scale, they all manage a lot of shops, and after getting married, they will inevitably have to check the accounts, and they have to check with the account office or something.

Mrs. Zhang's words are obviously taking advantage of Song Yao's affairs to belittle the women of the Yun family, including the wife of the Hubu Shangshu and Mrs. Cui, who was born in the Yun family.

When Mrs. Zhang spoke, Mrs. Cui wanted to reply to her.

Putting the chopsticks on the table, Mrs. Cui picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and swept towards the people on the table who were watching her, evoking a light smile.

"Last year, the shop had a lot of income, so I bought more supplements, plus those sent by my mother, some of them were more supplements, and it was a little unpleasant to eat this bird's nest again." Mrs. Cui said, and took the tea cup to rinse her mouth.

Mrs. Cui did not act openly with Mrs. Zhang, and only a 'truth' made Mrs. Zhang's face darken.

Among these ladies, Mrs. Zhang's dowry is the thinnest, and her mother's family is in the middle, and she has to secretly help her.

Although Master Zhang manages the ministry, his official position remains unchanged, and he is not enough to drink and entertain guests.

Moreover, Master Zhang's identity is embarrassing, and the filial piety he has received in recent years has not been as much as before.

A temporary book that can't really be the master, who will really respect it? It's just a pay-as-you-go.

The foundation of the Zhang family is not thick, and Mrs. Zhang's dowry cannot be used on herself, not to mention overstretched, but she must live a careful life.

It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Zhang is reluctant to eat supplements on weekdays, and the ones she buys are all inferior goods, even if she occasionally buys some good ones for the sake of face, she is reluctant to eat them, and she is waiting for someone to show off when she is there.

Sure enough, as soon as Mrs. Cui's words fell, Mrs. Zhang's face was not very good-looking.

Everyone on the table has a bowl of bird's nest, but only Mrs. Cui has most of the bowl, which will not be able to cover up.

"If Mrs. Cui doesn't like to eat bird's nest, I'll ask someone to send you some fish gelatin tomorrow, which is also a good beauty product and tastes good." Song Yao released kindness towards Mrs. Cui.

The two have already met, and they like each other's personalities.

In addition, the children of the two families have a good relationship, but they are much closer.

"That's a good feeling." Mrs. Cui was also not polite, and said with a smile: "It is difficult to buy some fish gelatin on weekdays, what kind of limit do you have to do in your shop, even if you book in advance, you are not allowed to exceed one catty, and I don't make any money, and I am reluctant to eat it myself." By the way, your fish glue is a blind material in the Buddha jumping over the wall, right? ”

"Yes." Song Yao smiled helplessly, "It's not that I don't want to make money, it's really that fish gelatin is not easy to come by, and the production process is also troublesome, so it can only be out of stock if there is no limit." ”

"This fish gelatin is only sold by Song Ji, and I can't spend it even if I have silver. In this way, I won't take advantage of you, so you can sell me ten catties. Mrs. Cui said generously: "Today, you have become the goddaughter of my sister-in-law, and you are also my niece, can you not give your aunt this face?" ”

Mrs. Cui intends to promote Song Yao's status, and this niece means that she is going to support Song Yao.

As for buying ten catties of fish gelatin, Mrs. Qi Zhang is on the one hand, and she really wants to sell it, and it is also a good thing to use as a gift, and the hospitality is even more face-saving.

Without waiting for Song Yao to reply, several other ladies also spoke one after another, but it was not good to ask for ten catties in one breath like Mrs. Cui, so she folded it in half and booked five catties.

didn't give Song Yao a chance to refuse, and directly asked her own girl to give Song Yao the silver ticket, but the act of forcibly buying it made Mrs. Zhang angry.

Mrs. Zhang has the heart to dismantle the stage, but she also knows that the fish gelatin is good, and she knows that it is not easy to buy, so there is really no way but to stare at it.

Mrs. Zhang is angry, but a pound of ordinary fish gelatin costs 500 taels of silver, and the high-grade one reaches 2,000 taels, how can she be willing to give it?

"Won't Mrs. Zhang buy some? Today, I borrowed the light of my eldest nephew, otherwise I would be embarrassed to open my mouth to my niece. Mrs. Cui kept an eye on Mrs. Zhang, and when she saw that she didn't speak, she kindly reminded.

Mrs. Cui's kind gaze almost made Mrs. Zhang vomit blood.

The ladies just now bought all the top grades, five catties is 10,000 taels of silver, and the Zhuangzi she married can only earn these a year.

But in front of these ladies, Mrs. Zhang was embarrassed to buy less, or buy less, so she thought about pretending to be deaf and dumb.

At this moment, being urged by Mrs. Cui like this, if you don't buy it, you will admit that you are poor, how will Mrs. Zhang communicate with these ladies in the future?

"Buy, you have to buy." Mrs. Zhang's heart ached, she pulled out a stiff smile, and beckoned to the girl, "I'll buy five catties too, just to make up for the master." ”

Mrs. Zhang has always loved face, so when she goes out, she will carry 20,000 taels of silver tickets, but she doesn't spend much time, and she is really bleeding today.

Mrs. Zhang gritted the socket of her back teeth and reluctantly spoke, knowing that these ladies were all looking at her jokes, so she simply didn't hold the shelf, picked up the bird's nest and ate it.

After spending so much silver, and not even eating a bowl of bird's nest, wouldn't it be even more of a loss?

Without Mrs. Zhang's thorns, the atmosphere of Song Yao and the others became harmonious again.

Because Song Ji had many things to pre-order, Mrs. Cui took the lead, and several ladies also booked a lot of things, which made Song Yao make another profit.

Although the ladies at the other tables were envious, it was not easy to disturb them, after all, the status of the people at the main table was there, and if they only wanted to have a chance, they would also order some good things, which would be in vain.

After the banquet, everyone watched another opera and had afternoon tea before leaving.

People who have the opportunity to deal with Song Yao have a lot of support for her business, and the red sleeves are tired of receiving silver tickets and orders, and they don't even have time to drink saliva.

After the outsiders left, Mrs. Yun thoughtfully asked Song Yao to rest first, and then have a family banquet at dinner.

Song Yao couldn't go back to the house today, so she obeyed Mrs. Yun's arrangement, went back to Yafeng Yuan to squint for a while, and changed into simpler clothes.

When it was time for dinner, Song Yao took her two sons to greet the Yun family and his wife.

said that it was a family banquet, but Mrs. Yun didn't even invite people from other rooms, only Yun Zhongxiao's family of four.

"Mother-in-law, please drink tea." Because of Old Lady Yun, Song Yao did not offer tea to Mrs. Yun, which would have to be made up separately.

"Okay, okay, I have another daughter, but I have made up two good words." Mrs. Yun smiled and took the teacup, took a sip and put it aside.

Tea is a ritual and does not need to be drunk in one sip.

asked someone to hand over the gift that had been prepared a long time ago, and Mrs. Yun smiled: "Yaoyao, this is my stepmother's dowry, and it is not too expensive as a meeting gift, so you don't want to be too little." ”

"It was given by my stepmother, and it's too late for Yaoyao to like it." Song Yao smiled lightly.

The Yun family's family is there, and the things sent by Mrs. Yun will not be bad.

And Mrs. Yun is the eldest daughter of the head of the Zheng family, and the Zheng family is in the medicinal materials business, and the medical halls have opened all over the Great Zhou Kingdom, how can the dowry for the eldest daughter be shabby?

"You girl, you have a sweet mouth." Mrs. Yun said with a smile.

"You two boys, don't call Auntie yet." Yun Zhongyao took out two red envelopes, and said with a look of expectation: "Hurry up and salute me, and take a red envelope." ”

Although Yun Zhongyao and Song Yuanbao have been together for a morning, they have not formally met her elder, and Yun Zhongyao always feels that she lacks something.

Song Yuanbao's eyes lit up, he liked red envelopes the most.

Hurriedly picking up a cup of tea, Song Yuanbao ran to Yun Zhongyao in a hurry, bowed down and said: "Hello auntie, I am my mother's youngest son, my name is Song Yuanbao, please take care of my aunt in the future." ”

Song Yuanbao secretly said in his heart: It's better to send me more treasures if you have nothing to do, it's worth it, and nothing else matters.

Seeing this, Song Yinbao had no choice but to follow suit, "Auntie, please use tea." ”

The brothers held the tea cup, and the aunt's cry was also smooth.

It's just that Song Yinbao is a little awkward in his heart, he and Yun Zhongyao are the same age!

"Good job!" Yun Zhongyao squinted her eyes with a smile, took the tea cup of the two of them in turn, took a sip, and handed the red envelope to the two.

Song Yuanbao's eyes rolled, and he pulled Song Yinbao to kneel down towards the head of the Yun family, and said in a soft voice: "My grandson gives my grandfather a mouth, and I wish my grandfather a blessing like the East China Sea." ”

After kowtowing, Song Yuanbao didn't get up, and wrote on his face: Give a red envelope!

The head of the Yun family laughed, bent down to help the two little ones up, and gave each of them a greeting gift.

Song Yuanbao concocted it in the same way, and kowtowed to Mrs. Yun and Yun Zhongxiao, obviously asking the two of them to give her a red envelope.

Seeing that the three of them gave a gift each, Song Yao's smile cracked a little.

Although the appearance of these three people was prepared, Song Yuanbao's two children also won it as juniors.

But Song Yuanbao's appearance as a wealth fan is really embarrassing?

"Come on, sit down." Song Yao was afraid that Song Yuanbao would do something more embarrassing, so she beckoned the two to sit down.

Song Yinbao was dragged by Song Yuanbao to do things, which made his face slightly red, which showed that he felt ashamed.

"Children, just to have fun, don't talk about them when you look back." Mrs. Yun glanced at Song Yao and said to the two little guys: "If your mother teaches you a lesson about this, just come to your grandmother, and your grandmother will support you." ”

"Thank you, grandmother, you are really the best grandmother in the world." Song Yuanbao said with a grin.

Song Yinbao thanked him and lowered his head, if there would be such an occasion in the future, he would still find an excuse to slip away, he was already ten years old!
