Chapter 39: Questioning

Early the next morning, Mrs. Fang came over with two carts full of things.

Accompanied by the eldest wife and the second wife, they came to Lijing Pavilion.

"Fifty catties of pineapples, fifty catties of autumn bamboo shoots, and one hundred catties of artichoke...... Regardless of Qiaolan Xiangtong's obstruction, Mother Zhao took the Fang family's gift list and forcibly broke into Lijing Pavilion and read it to the eldest lady in public.

The two big carts were full of fruits and vegetables that had just come down from the field.

Zhao Qing was a little dumbfounded.

This is not modern, vegetables without pesticides and fertilizers are worth more than fish.

"This, this is the ...... of the in-laws," the second wife was speechless in shock.

Qiao Lan Xiangtong and others even hated that they couldn't get into a crack in the ground.

Whether a daughter-in-law can stand up in her mother-in-law's family depends not only on her husband's status in the family, but also on her mother's family. And now that Shen Huaiyu is deceased, and the second wife is a submissive person who looks at the old lady's eyes everywhere, Zhao Qing can be said to be helpless in the Shen Mansion, and they are already trembling, walking on thin ice.

Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon and finally looking forward to the mother's family, I was expecting to be able to support my waist, but I didn't expect to send a bunch of cheap vegetables!

Not to mention the third grandmother of his family, even those of them who are slaves can't raise their heads.

Looking at Zhao Qing, who was silent, several tears almost fell.

The sum of the two carriages is less than a ten-year-old mountain ginseng!

A hint of contempt flashed in her eyes, and the eldest lady opened her mouth, wanting to say sarcastic, but after thinking about it, she closed her mouth.

The room was surprisingly quiet.

"Let Mrs. Fang break the cost......" Mother Su, who was standing behind her, solemnly broke the silence, her eyebrows rose slightly, and her low and solemn tone was unhurried, as if she had received two carts of priceless jewelry.

Poof, the little maid behind the big lady sneered.

For a while, mocking, teasing, and watching jokes, all kinds of eyes converged on Zhao Qing's mother and daughter.

Mrs. Fang's face turned red to the base of her ears.

Zhao Qing smiled slightly.

"Mother Su doesn't have to be polite, this is all my mother's intention......" She indifferently met everyone's mocking gaze. My mother heard that the food in the house was not good, and she was worried that I would not be able to eat fresh vegetables. He looked at Mrs. Fang with a smile, "Isn't it, mother?" ”

Mrs. Fang looked up in disbelief.

"Yes. Yes......" Then Zhao Qing mentioned that he played a role, "Your father said that your mother-in-law's family lacks this, a plate of vegetables is going to be hot at the beginning and hot at the bottom, and they are not willing to throw ......it away when it is dark" It seems that the Shen family was originally a shabby who couldn't afford to eat fresh vegetables, "...... I was able to send two carts! "The tone is gentle. The attitude is kind, but Mrs. Fang's words are sharper than the blade.

Su's mother opened her mouth wide in shock.

Lowering her head vigorously, Xia Zhu Qiaolan's shoulders twitched.

Co-author, did you deliberately drive two wagons of vegetables to bury the Shen family? The eldest lady looked frozen on her face.

Zhao's mother hated that she couldn't give herself two slaps.

It's really cheap, isn't this stretching your neck and sending it to the door to slap people in the face.

How can she still sit still, and after a few perfunctory words, the eldest lady got up to say goodbye, and the second wife didn't dare to sit more, so she stood up and followed.

Only then did Zhao Qing look at Mrs. Fang carefully.

Looks like he is in his thirties, not tall, with apricot eyes and thin lips. Wearing a half-new ginger orchid grass pattern makeup gown, his jet-black hair was neatly tied into a high bun, with two phoenix hairpins inserted, lined with a fair and square face, showing a little richness and kindness.

It's not at all like her delicateness!

Zhao Qing's heart skipped a beat.

Didn't you say that she was the eldest daughter?

Since he is not like Master Fang, he should be like Mrs. Fang.

But how can it not be like it?

Don't...... Is it the eldest daughter who was orphaned at a young age?

It's been more than a month, and Mrs. Fang hasn't come to see her!

"I don't look like my mother at all." The thought flashed, and Zhao Qing blurted out, "I forgot everything before, can my mother tell me?" "The elegant and melodious voice of the yellow warbler faintly reveals a majesty that cannot be ignored.

It's like a thunderstorm in the clear sky.

Mrs. Fang only felt a "Weng" sound in her head. A fine layer of sweat broke out all over his body in an instant.

She found out, and she began to doubt!

A bride who has no dowry and no man's support will change all the minions around her within three days of entering the mansion, and the bottom of the Shen Mansion will be tossed upwards in five days. still relied on the old lady to promise to give her twenty-one empty silver every month, and no one could do it!

It can be seen that she is wise and intelligent.

Thinking of what she heard as soon as she entered the Shen Mansion, Mrs. Fang became more and more sure that Zhao Qing had discovered that she was not her biological daughter, and began to doubt her true identity, and her limbs were so frightened that her limbs went weak, if it weren't for her ass being held up by a chair. I'm afraid it's already piled up on the ground.

Her heart was pounding, and Mrs. Fang couldn't help but secretly complain about Master Fang, "I said earlier that he would take out some silver taels to make up the dowry, and he could straighten his waist when he came to the Shen family, but he said that he wanted to escape, and he couldn't throw the white silver into the river, which was good, let a slave lose his old face in public, and make her suspicious!" In a panic, she grabbed Zhao Qing's arm, "Good daughter, don't think about it, you are indeed my own daughter who crawled out of my intestines." ”

How so?

It's really my own daughter, how could she know that she was in a difficult situation in her in-law's house, but she still pulled two carts of vegetables to practice herself!

Zhao Qing's eyes were gloomy and obscure.

Mrs. Fang only felt that her heartstrings were about to break.

"You look like your aunt!"

"Grandma?" Zhao Qing blinked.

"Yes, it's Grandma!" Mrs. Fang gritted her teeth and talked about the secret that Master Fang didn't know back then.

The Fang family is a big family in Tangchuan, Nanzhou, Fang Xueying's father Fang Ping'an is the eldest son of the Fang family, and his biological mother is a famous prostitute in Zuifanglou, the flower name is Butterfly, beautiful as a flower, and he is deeply jealous of his mother. He came to Liuhe Town alone with his wife and lived on the hundreds of acres of fertile land that the Fang family had planted here in the early years.

Mrs. Fang finally said, "...... Your eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as your aunt's, and that's why your father loves you so much. ”

Is that so?

Zhao Qing frowned slightly.

"When the marriage was first discussed, the slave maid also heard that you look like an aunt and grandmother of the Fang family, and you are a well-known beauty billet in Liuhe Town......" Qiao Lan whispered in Zhao Qing's ear,

Not knowing what her master and servant were muttering, Mrs. Fang's heart hung tightly.

“…… The butterfly around your neck is the only relic that your aunt left to your father. Thinking that Zhao Qing still had a butterfly on her neck that she couldn't pick off, she blurted out.

Flower name Butterfly. Butterfly ......

Is it all true?

His hand gently pressed on the priceless butterfly on his chest, and Zhao Qing was relieved.

In my previous life, I chatted with my colleagues, and everyone talked about what could best test the truth. Some colleagues said that for Scrooge, money is the only criterion for testing true feelings...... Master Fang is a well-known iron rooster, and he actually buried such a priceless butterfly for himself...... If it weren't for her own birth, I'm afraid that the wife in front of me would have turned the world upside down.

It's just that Zhao Qing frowned again.

Both biological parents. not only loves herself, but even buried such a precious jade pendant, now that she is alive, why is she so cold?

In particular, Mrs. Fang looked at her with surprise, panic, and nervousness...... But he didn't have the intimacy that blood was thicker than water in his mother's eyes in his previous life.

It doesn't make sense.

If he wants to break his head, Zhao Qing can't give a reasonable explanation for these contradictory things.

This matter is important to her.

It's ridiculous to test her relatives, she will definitely not be able to pass this level, and she will have to go to the Fang family to take refuge at that time, if it is not her own...... She's about to rethink.

Seeing Zhao Qing's brows stretched. Mrs. Fang had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when she suddenly frowned again, Mrs. Fang's heart shrank suddenly.

"Good daughter, don't think that I have too few things, it's really that the family's silver is pressed on the food, and I can't move it for a while." Thinking of something, he hurriedly took out a few colorful tickets from his arms, "This is the redemption ticket of Dasheng Youyou Commercial Bank, a total of five hundred and eighty taels." Stuffed into Zhao Qing's hand, "You put it away." When something happened, I sent someone to the capital to redeem it. ”

Redemption of the comptoir?

Why is it not called a silver ticket?

"This ,...... Can it be spent? Zhao Qing took it in confusion.

The paper is very hard, and the words fifty taels, twenty taels are printed on the front. On the reverse side is an icon of abundant grains, with a line of small characters at the bottom, Dashengyou Commercial Bank.

Doesn't it mean that the silver tickets are all issued by the bank or the ticket number, and they can be deposited and exchanged?

How can this be a comptoir?

Moreover, you can't take it anytime and anywhere, so you have to go to the capital to redeem it.

The capital is not a mile or two away from Gulan Town. Five hundred taels is fifty catties, and it is not easy to carry it back from afar!

Besides, the road is not smooth.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

Zhao Qing, who is accustomed to the modern savings outlets and ATMs that can be seen everywhere, feels really awkward.

"If you can spend it, it's just troublesome......," Mrs. Fang nodded, "However, it's more convenient to go out than to bring silver." "This is still the body money that her brother secretly stuffed into her.

"This kind of ticket can only be opened by the kind of big family with a very good reputation and a branch number everywhere, and it is especially convenient in places with business names...... "Xia Zhu took it and looked at it carefully over and over again, "The slave maid has seen this kind of ticket in the third master's study. ”

It's not Xia Zhu's explanation, Zhao Qing really doesn't know, the Chu country she came to has no ticket number and money village at all, and all the business is done in cash, and most of the bulk transactions are transported by a dart bureau, and because of this, the Chu State Dart Bureau is particularly popular and the business is excellent.

In order to save dart fees, many large commercial houses with semicolons in other places have printed this kind of exchange notes for internal circulation and exchanges with large customers.

“…… When she was on an errand in the third master's study, the slave maid had heard the third master and Mr. Su talk about redeeming tickets. "Introduced the origin of the redemption ticket, Xia Zhu finally said, "Mr. Su said that when the country was first established, Empress Taizu had proposed to open a ticket number, a money village, and print paper tickets instead of silver, and then I don't know why, it didn't work, the reason why the third master built so many semicolons in various places is to plan to print and redeem tickets, not only in Yushengtang, but in the face of all the businessmen in the world, the kind of ......" and shook his head, "How to operate, how to make money, the slave and maid don't understand, the slave and maid only remember what the third master said at that time, Mr. Su nodded again and again, saying that if the third master's move can be successful, it will not only fulfill the long-cherished wish of Empress Taizu, but also open our Dachu ...... A precedent for something. Xia Zhu tilted his head and thought for a long time, and chopped his feet anxiously, "Oh, the slave really can't remember!" ”

It made Mrs. Fang's wife Qiaolan purse her lips and laugh.

Zhao Qingxin, who was born with a keen sense of smell for business opportunities, was shocked.

Shen Huaiyu is really worthy of being a business wonder!

If she can open a "bank" and operate well, she will definitely be able to pass the world and shoot all over the world!

The thought flashed, and Zhao Qing's heart was suddenly surging. (To be continued.) )

PS: Thank you Cui Yuyichu for the pink ticket, tears in my eyes......
