I've been worried about the bowstring alley. Unexpectedly, the eldest brother not only knew, but also rushed to Xu's house early in the morning to report the news.

Thinking of this, Wu Niang's little uneasiness disappeared.

She asked Eleven Niang in a low voice: "What did the eldest brother say when he came?" ”

Eleven Niang only said that Luo Zhenxing persuaded her not to lose harmony between husband and wife for the sake of the child.

Wu Niang asked Shi Niang what her plans were.

"What can I do?" Eleven Niang said, "If that's the case, it depends on what Hou Ye says." ”

"Yes." Wu Niang smiled, "After all, you are a stepmother, so it's really inconvenient to come out like this." ”

Eleven Niang nodded, not wanting to talk to her about this anymore, so she changed the topic with a smile: "Sister's body is okay?" ”

The mother smiled sweetly, "I'm fine." I ate and slept every day, slept and ate, and gained a lot of weight. ”

"It's a blessing to be able to eat and sleep." Eleven Niang smiled and gossiped with her, "I don't know what my sister likes to eat?" I'd like to get some prepared. ”

Wu Niang sighed when she heard this: "How can I be as picky as when I was a girl, what do I eat!" ”

Eleven Niang listened to what she said, but she couldn't figure out what she meant, and pretended to be confused: "I see that the fifth brother and sister are pregnant with children, and they especially like to eat sour bamboo shoots." Why don't I have someone serve it to you? If it's delicious, take some home. ”

Wu Niang shook her head: "Forget it." This person goes from thrift to luxury, and from luxury to thrift. I'm afraid I'm used to eating and once I can't eat. I feel uncomfortable. ”

Complaining in front of himself like this, is it because he has taken a fancy to what kind of business he wants to join by himself?

Eleven Niang thought about it and said with a smile: "Look at what my sister said." This sour bamboo shoot is not a good thing, if my sister likes to eat it, I will ask Holly to help my sister make it. Then he got up and called Green Cloud and asked her to bring a small plate of sour bamboo shoots.

The green clouds departed.

"Alas!" Wu Niang looked at it and sighed: "This is in response to the old saying - every family has a scripture that is difficult to read." You, don't worry about food, don't worry about clothing, and someone will serve you in front of the saddle and behind the horse with a casual word, but the marquis is ...... As for me, my husband is handsome and rich, but my family is thin and has no foundation, and I live on my little dowry. If others don't know, you should know best. We talk about how many dowries, but when they are implemented, they can't even get by. Otherwise, how would I have shown up and done business? As he spoke, his smile became bitter, "Who knew that luck was so bad, and I encountered a heavy snowstorm that has been difficult for decades." A few hundred taels of silver were lost in vain. ”

Eleven Niang also came from a hard life, if she changed herself, she would also be heartbroken, and she could understand Wu Niang.

She persuaded Wu Niang: "Just buy a lesson." In the future, if you see what kind of business, start from a small capital first, and wait until you have a certainty. It's never too late to make it bigger. ”

"That's all I can think about." Wu Niang said helplessly, "Your brother-in-law also persuaded me like this." It is said that the year is not good, and there is no harvest. ”

Although Qian Ming is a bit snobbish, he also has his own demeanor. Eleven Niang smiled: "Since my brother-in-law thinks like this, my sister should be more relaxed." ”

Wu Niang said "um", and then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she leaned over the kang table and asked Eleven Niang in a low voice: "How is your dowry?" ”

Eleven Niang didn't expect her to ask about this and paused.

Wu Niang has said: "A piece of sandy land, a piece of sloping land." Not to mention that we don't divide the grains, even the accompanying house around us is also from the south, where do we know how to plant crops on sand and slopes, and it is difficult for my sister! ”

"yes, I'm worried about this!" Eleven Niang does not deny this, "But my knowledge is limited, and I don't have any particularly good ideas." If the fifth sister has any good ideas, she must tell me. ”

"That's nature." Wu Niang agreed very happily, "You and I are in the same voice, I won't help you help anyone." Then he looked at it with a look of reassurance, "However, you do need to put a little more effort into this matter." You know, you're not like me. I live in a single family. Eat in the pot and wear it on the body. You have a big family, complicated and intertwined personnel, and you don't have any private money, so I'm afraid it's embarrassing to reward the maids, let alone surrender to those housekeepers who think they have served Mrs. Tai more than anyone else! ”

It really made Wu Niang say it.

She's really worried.

If nothing else, I will definitely preside over Xu Fuzhong next year, and it is inevitable to invite these mothers in charge to have a snack and a few pieces of jewelry to buy people's hearts. But the Xu family is not that poor family, raising and moving qi, living and moving, these mothers in charge followed and watched, their hands and eyes were very big. If there are fewer things, it may not have the purpose of buying people's hearts, but it will be looked down upon, and it will be disobeyed when you become an errand in the future, but you will lose your majesty.

Seeing that Eleven Niang didn't make a sound, Wu Niang lowered her voice: "Sister, there is a business that is very profitable. If it can be done, it will not only solve my sister's situation, but also allow me to give birth with peace of mind. ”

A trace of helplessness flashed in Shi Niang's eyes, and she politely refused: "Others don't know, my sister should know best." I can't come up with a lot of capital. She said a very skillful remark, saying that "I can't get out more money", giving people the illusion that although I have money, I don't have much.

She did it on purpose.

said that he had money, but he was afraid that the lion of Wu Niang would open his mouth and he would not be able to take it out. broke the harmony that the two sisters maintained on the surface, if they said that they had no money, they were afraid that Wu Niang would misunderstand that they were calling her poor and didn't want to help her.

Wu Niang covered her sleeves and smiled: "This business does not require capital. ”

Eleven Niang's heart jumped when she heard this, and reminded her quietly: "How can there be a pie in the sky?" ”

"This is the pie in the world!" Wu Niang smiled, "Of course, there are still some difficulties. However, this matter is difficult for others, but it is a gesture for Eleven Sister. ”

What is difficult for others, but it is a matter of effort for yourself...... It can only be borrowed from Xu Lingyi's name!

Eleven Niang's heart was cold, and she smiled with a hint of luck: "Is it to open an embroidery building?" I'm a little sure of that. ”

"What kind of embroidery building do you want? That also has to be costly. Wu Niang smiled and told Shi Niang about the salt introduction, "...... You say, is this a pie in the sky? ”

Eleven Niang's heart was slightly stunned.

Businessmen seek profit. Who would push the money out of their hands? The Wen family is like this, either they are doing bait, using a business that can easily make a lot of money to catch Qian Ming's mouth, and then slowly figure it out from easy to difficult, so that the two of them can't pose, and finally even take risks; Either that, although the benefits of this matter are large, it is not easy to do it, and even the money you make is relationship money.

Looking for Fan Weigang, it would have cost 1,800 quintals of grain and rice to pass the intermediate links, but now it only needs 500 quintals. Where does the rest of the profit come from? Naturally, it came from those officials who exploited layer by layer. In this way, it is equivalent to taking food from the mouth of a tiger. Once or twice, it's good to say, if it takes a long time, I'm afraid that if you are the king of heaven, Lao Tzu will also make those officials resentful and find an opportunity to stumble on you. When the time comes, it is not impossible for a thousand-mile-long embankment to collapse in an anthill.

She thought of Luo Zhenxing's words to persuade herself.

Obviously, treat her like an ignorant child......

Eleven Niang made a worried look: "I don't know Master Fan...... I'm afraid that I want the Hou Ye to come forward......"

Wu Niang's eyes turned, and she said what Qian Ming told her when she came: "Where does Hou Ye need to come forward for such a trivial matter." You just need to talk to the head of the house and take the name of the marquis. We'll take care of the rest. ”

"This. Not really! Eleven Niang looked a little flustered, "If Hou Ye asks, what should I say?" No, no! Her head shook like a drum.

"Oh, Master Hou has so many things every day, how can he pay attention to these." Wu Niang smiled, "Your guts are too small." ”

Eleven Niang smiled wryly: "My sister also knows that I am timid." Let's talk to Hou Ye and then make plans! ”

Wu Niang saw that her mouth was tight, and she made a look of hating iron but not steel, and sighed: "You, what can I do?" I'm worried about you, you're like a nobody. Don't think my sister is too straightforward. You must know that you and Hou Ye are halfway husband and wife, he is not yet thirty years old this year, and he has the eldest son, sister-in-law, and eldest daughter. There are some things that you have to know in your heart. You know, your days will be long in the future, and you may have another aunt entering the door one day. You don't plan for yourself, but you also have to plan for your future children, and you can get some silver and two sides. Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the five ladies in your mansion will have a dowry of one hundred and twenty-eight when they come in, the county lord who was enshrined by the imperial court, and the eldest lady from the Dingnan Hou Mansion, who is prominent! People don't still have shops outside. Everyone knows that they have money in their hands, and they don't panic in their hearts, don't look like you haven't grown up, you're also afraid, you're also afraid......"

Eleven Niang listened carefully, but she only responded with a whisper, but she didn't participate in her topic.

Wu Niang saw that she was afraid of things, although she was anxious, she was not in a hurry, but she was not in a hurry, and slowly led the topic to the child: "...... There's nothing to be afraid of. He is not the firstborn. After a few years, give him a daughter-in-law, and then divide some money for him to go out and live alone. ”

Shi Niang saw that it was not early, so she interrupted her: "Sister is coming, let's have lunch here!" ”

When Wu Niang came, she was going to go back early to report to the Bowstring Hutong. Now that he knew that Luo Zhenxing had come ahead of him, he had faded this eagerness, and thought about Qian Ming asking her to move around with Eleven Niang more, and responded with a smile: "I haven't kowtowed to Mrs. Tai yet!" ”

Seeing that she agreed, Eleven Niang called Amber in, instructed her to arrange lunch, sent someone to ask Xu Lingyi's letter, and then changed her clothes and went to Mrs. Tai with Wu Niang.

Mrs. Tai was very happy to see Wu Niang, and asked questions. It happened that a little maid came to give a gift, saying that Xu Lingyi was eating in the outer courtyard, so Mrs. Tai called the third lady to accompany her, and left Wu Niang for lunch. After eating, I personally sent her to the door of the house before turning back.

Wu Niang's expression was a little uncertain, and she sat down in the eleventh room before saying, "I didn't expect you to please your mother-in-law." ”

Eleven Niang smiled: "My mother treats people kindly, but it's not that I will please her old man." ”

Wu Niang didn't speak, thinking of the respectful look of the eldest lady every time she mentioned Mrs. Tai, she felt a little bitter in her heart.

These two days have been a bit of a personal matter, and there is no way to double change. Let's get over this time! (∩_∩) O~
