Chapter Ninety-Six: Preparing for a Rainy Day and Withdrawing Shares
Yu Jin nodded, "Not bad." The two brothers are both gentlemen, the mother is a child who loves the child, and hopes that the child will have a good mother in the future, and teaches them to focus on their studies from an early age, and will not let Yahuan distract them early. Now that the eldest brother has become famous, didn't his mother put a ring around him, it can be seen that it is not easy for a man to keep himself like a jade.
If the two elder brothers had grown up in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion since childhood, they would have received a house long ago. Many men will not give up hugging left and right, they can love you and spoil you, the environment does not allow you to monopolize your husband, they will take concubines and have intercourse. Only Zhu Yuchen is willing to swear on the spot that he will only marry me in his life, if I don't choose him, who else can I choose! Your young lady is not a fairy jade beauty, not even a beauty, I can't end up in my hometown, I have to get married, then choose someone I know, don't hate someone to marry, love needs time to run-in. "
Ah Xiu suddenly saluted and said, "Miss, please be the master of Ah Xiu and get engaged to Yan Yi for me."
Yu Jin knew that Ah Xiu had finally let go of her heart and was willing to pursue her happiness, so she was happy for Ah Xiu in her heart, and couldn't help asking, "Are you sure?"
Ah Xiu nodded firmly, "Sure, even if I can't get the heart of words in my life, I have no regrets." "
Yu Jin thought that Yan Yi and Yan Qi both liked Ah Xiu, the two were comrades-in-arms and friends, and they were hindered by each other's desire to fulfill Ah Xiu's desire to fulfill each other, so they both suppressed their feelings and did not confess to Ah Xiu, so they forced Ah Xiu to ask her to call the shots, so she responded happily.
"Miss, try the cake I made, it's not very successful, but it tastes good." Bai Zhao went back to the kitchen to dry the cut cake and let everyone taste it.
Yu Jin rested early because of the relationship between her ears and eyes, and Bai Zhao and the four of them all chattered to taste cakes and prick their ears and eyes. After Leng Hui and Xinu left, Bai Zhao secretly asked Ah Xiu, "Are you sure you want to marry Yan Yi, do you know who Yan Yi has in mind?" "
Ah Xiu smiled and said, "I know." I returned from Chu with Yan Yi and Yan Qi, Yan was cold and warm, he was very considerate and caring, he was not like Yan Qi who liked Miss in his heart from the beginning. Yan Yi and Miss went all the way to Wei to like Miss, and I can see that he feels sorry for me. As Miss said, who hasn't had a brilliant idea yet. Yan Yihui is a good husband, I know him well, I know him, we are both orphans and have the same experience, and I am sure that even if he still loves Miss, I will not let me see it. I like Yan Yi, and I have long regarded him as a husband in my heart, so I decided to take a gamble. Miss doesn't know what to say and what she wants, they will hide their true intentions in front of Miss, and they will only show their loyal and protective side to Miss. From now on, the young lady will not easily see them when she enters the backyard, and their thoughts will fade after a long time without a response. What about you, do you still have love for Yan Qi? "
Bai Zhao said very seriously: "There is no difference between having and not. As you said, even if I have affection for Yan Qi, I will press it in the depths of my heart, hide it in a corner and not let people find out, maybe even I will forget that corner after a long time. Fang Ji is a real person, a straight intestine who will not bend, he will have a tendon for whoever he is good, and his joy and anger are all on his face. It's not like Yan Yi and Yan Qi are all the elites of the Lone Goose Team who were trained by the old master, they are scheming, and people can't see the ideas on the other side, I don't regret giving up Yan Qi to choose Fang Ji. "
Ah Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that we are all people who know what we want clearly, including Miss." I think Fang Ronghua's son and Miss are a perfect match, Fang Gongzi likes Miss no less than General Zhu, but Miss chose the not very smart General Zhu. Who can do as they please! The young lady was willing to let us choose our own husband, and gave us a rich dowry, and we should be grateful and content. "
Bai Zhao chuckled, she let out a long breath and said, "Contentment is the only way to be happy." Think about those official daughters are not as comfortable as us, their marriage is implicated in the family, who will care whether they like it or not, it is not according to the choice of the family, and they have not even seen each other to marry. Not to mention a confidant, it is impossible to monopolize the favor of her husband, in-laws, concubines, eldest aunts, little uncles, and sisters-in-law have a lot of intrigues, and they have to pretend to be virtuous and virtuous to their husbands, arrange for the whole room to arrange the days, think about that kind of day is really aggrieved, compared with them, we are living a fairy-like life in heaven. "
Ah Xiu said firmly as if she had sworn an oath: "I know that Xinu and Leng Hui choose people who are beneficial to Miss, they are the same as us, they are devoted to Miss, Miss is our only relative, as long as Miss is good, we can be good." For love is hard to find, I am fortunate to get it, but I can't die. I, a man of humble origin, am free to choose a husband, have a yard and money to marry, and the future days have been arranged by the young lady, and there is nothing to complain about. "
Yujin got up early the next day, went to greet her grandparents first, and when she went to her mother's courtyard to ask for peace, she met Changbai, who was waiting for her. Changbai smiled brightly, "Eldest sister, I went to the four stores in Tongsheng yesterday to settle the settlement, and the two packages of cooperation are divided, guess how much silver?" "
Yu Jin said with a smile: "It hasn't been long since Tongsheng opened, we don't have many shares, and we have cooperated for more than a year, do you have five thousand taels?"
Changbai's eyebrows fluttered and shouted: "It's more than eight thousand taels, and my Yulu is less than two hundred taels a year, but I haven't received it yet." Eldest sister, I want to tell you about the results of chatting with my grandfather, who warned me not to get close to Liao Fanlin, and he said that Concubine Mei is likely to follow the path of Concubine Xian. And when my grandfather didn't agree with us moving Qin, he asked his eldest uncle to tell Prime Minister Qin to deal with it himself. "
Yu Jin thought for a while and nodded, "Well, listen to my grandfather, my grandfather is experienced, and it makes sense to take precautions." After the holiday, you inform Liao Dagongzi and Tang Ergongzi that we will not collect a penny and withdraw shares from the backpack and handbag business of the partnership. Because my maidservants are going to get married in March, they don't have time to design new styles, and they concentrate on helping me take care of the business of Shuangjue Dart Store after marriage, and I don't have time to design new styles in the future, so I ask them to forgive me. There is another urgent matter that must be dealt with quickly, the woman who had an affair with her second cousin can't let her leave with pregnancy. "
"Why?" Changbai asked puzzled.
"You don't want that in a few years, that woman will bring a child to recognize her relatives or a child will come out to recognize her relatives, so that the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion will be chaotic again, and the grandfather and uncle will lose face again!"
Changbai nodded, "It's really possible, what did the eldest sister say to do?" "
Yu Jin said strongly: "The idea is to let that woman have a miscarriage on the street, and she wants to go to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in the future, and she has no handle or opportunity to make another move."
"Okay, I heard that the eldest sister will withdraw her shares after the New Year, and I will let you vigorously find someone to do the woman's business. Grandfather also said that the grandmother and the Duchess jointly cultivated the queen, the two of them are the wisest and wisest women except for the queen mother, the eldest sister may wish to take advantage of the grandmother's here, more advice from the grandmother. Changbai finished speaking and hurriedly left.
Yu Jin said goodbye from her mother's courtyard and walked towards the Jin courtyard. Yu Yao and Yu Zhuo rushed up from behind and shouted happily, "Big sister."
After entering the house, Yuyao and Yuzhuo respectively reported the accounts of the dim sum shop and the garment shop. They had already calculated the net profit and asked Yujin what to do with it.
"No matter how much money you make, according to the dividends agreed at the beginning. The subordinates who should be rewarded must be rewarded, don't be afraid to reward the subordinates with silver, and the more they earn, the more they will naturally be rewarded, which proves that they have paid a lot. Making money is just a small way, and you can learn from it that it is the right thing to manage personnel and manage accounts. "
"Yes, I listen to the eldest sister, except for the silver handed over to my mother's father-in-law, all the dividends will be distributed as agreed, and I will send it to the eldest sister later." Yu Yao said quickly.
Yu Zhuo snorted and said, "Eldest sister, my aunt and I take too much, it's better to..."
Yu Jin was dissatisfied and interrupted Yu Zhuo and said, "Third sister, you should not give up what you deserve, and don't take anything that you don't deserve." The garment shop makes more money than the dim sum shop, and you and your aunt should take it if you don't pay less. Remember to keep your word and do it. The embroiderers can not be less, you just have to do things according to the rules, if you break your promise and get fat next time you have no prestige at all. "
Yu Zhuo pursed her lips and confessed with a smile, "Yes, eldest sister, I wrote it down!" My aunt didn't dare to take it, so I had to ask my eldest sister to push away some of it. "
Yu Yao and Yu Zhuo took the words of the eldest sister and said goodbye, and went back to deal with the dividends separately.
Yu Jin began to ponder Changbai's reminders and suggestions, remembering that when she visited her grandmother, her grandmother coughed from time to time, and remembered that her master had said that women in this era gave birth too early and too much, and they were prone to urinary incontinence in old age, especially when they were cold and coughed in winter. The master has given a prescription for the treatment of urinary incontinence in elderly women, and now it is too late to find a prescription for medicine, grandmother is a person who loves cleanliness and pride, coughing will inevitably cause incontinence, she must not want a bad smell on her body, it is cold in winter, and it must be inconvenient to change and wash from time to time.
Yu Jin remembered that the sanitary belt she made contained absorbent cotton and charcoal ash, which was highly absorbent and suitable for her grandmother. She had an idea and did it immediately, "Ah Xiu, stop your work first, and help me make new cotton clothes for my grandmother." "
Yu Yao and Yu Zhuo had already taken care of the silver, and soon sent dividends to Yu Jin when they went back, Yu Jin asked them to hand over the Xinu directly to the account, and the two of them rewarded Bai Zhao with 30 taels of silver and A Xiu with 70 taels of silver according to their contributions.
In the afternoon, Yu Jin went to see her grandmother alone with cotton clothes and pants made for her grandmother, special underwear, and soap printed with blessing, Lu, longevity, and jubilee. I accompanied my grandmother to take a hot bath with soap, put on new cotton clothes and pants, and left after dinner.
The next day was the Chinese New Year's Eve, and as soon as the day dawned, Yujin got up early to go to ask her grandparents for peace, "Miss, it's snowing outside, it's really cold." Xi Nu ran in with snow on his head, and said with his hands that were red from the cold.
Yu Jin said: "Ruixue Zhaofeng year, it's really good snow. Is it snowing heavily? "
Xi Nu shook off the snow on his body and said: "It's not big, but the snow is already four fingers thick, it may have fallen in the middle of the night, and I have already swept the road out with peace of mind and heart." I'll go fetch water and wash you up. "
