Chapter 277: I'm Afraid
Wen Moyan returned to the truth and preached, "You also know my experience during this time, my father-in-law wanted me to quit my job as a lawyer and study in peace, and he paid for my education and provided for me and my wife's food, clothing, housing and transportation, but I didn't want to live so poorly. ”
Gu Rao originally didn't plan to meddle in this matter, but since she had already said this, she also expressed her own opinion.
"You have real talent and learning, as long as you continue to work hard, you may not be able to win a good future in the future, your father-in-law is willing to cultivate you, if you know the words of gratitude, keep it in your heart, and find a chance to repay it in the future, you don't have to worry so clearly with him."
"It is normal for him to care about his daughter and worry that her daughter will suffer with you."
Wen Mo nodded.
"I understand everything."
"But as a literati, if you don't even have the backbone, what else will you read? Now that Donghuang County has been made into a miasma by the newly arrived county order, if even I am not a lawyer, how can those who have been wronged avenge themselves? ”
"In the past two months, almost all the cases I have accepted have ended in failure, and those people can't come up with the money, and I can't get it."
He himself could not protect himself, but he still couldn't see the suffering of the world, and after losing the lawsuit, he did not take money from the hired people.
"If you don't make any money, you really can't open a pot at home."
"I want to be a lawyer and start my own business."
"Originally, I didn't have a clue, but today I learned that you were here, so I wanted to ask, can I cooperate with you, I will pay you to make the recipes, you don't have to care about the rest, the money earned, we are four or six, I am four and you six."
"How?"
Gu Rao was a little surprised.
"Do you really want to do business?"
Although there is no rule in this era that merchants cannot take the imperial examination and cannot be officials, the status of merchants is still the lowest, and no matter how rich they are, they will still be looked down upon.
Of course, ordinary people can not care, but as a literati, can they really not care about the disdainful eyes of others?
Wen Mo nodded.
"I am first and foremost my wife's husband, and secondly I am an upright reader."
"If you can't even support your own wife, you shouldn't pay off the opportunity to make money, then you should be even more despised."
"What's wrong with the merchant?"
"We earn money with our own hands, and as long as the money comes above board, there is no shame."
Gu Rao appreciates his open-mindedness.
"I can agree to the cooperation you said, but since it is our recipe, the restaurant you opened can only have one name with our restaurant."
Wen Mo should be directly under it.
"Of course."
He directly asked the shopkeeper for a pen and paper, and after Gu Rao, Bei Ye and his own supplements, it didn't take long to write a contract.
After signing and drawing.
Gu Rao believes in Wenmo's character, and she doesn't procrastinate, and the direct recipes and detailed methods are clearly written.
"If you don't know anything else, you can go to Wild Boar Town to find me, or let your cook come to Wild Boar Town to learn from our cook for a few days."
Wenmo is cautious.
"I have already discussed with my lady that we will open a small restaurant for the time being, and the two of us will be busy, and we don't need to spend money to hire other cooks."
"In our current situation, we can't afford to hire a cook and a buddy."
"When are you going back to Boar Town?"
Gu Rao said, "It's not early today, I'll go back tomorrow." ”
Wenmo asked again, "What time?" ”
Gu Rao said, "Tomorrow." ”
Wen Mo nodded.
"Then I'll come to the inn to look for you by tomorrow."
Gu Rao was stunned for a moment.
"You're here to learn?"
Wen Mo said with a smile, "My lady is pregnant, so I can't let her have a big belly and go to Wild Boar Town alone to learn cooking, right?" ”
"I'm not worried about letting her go far away."
In fact, Donghuang County is not far from Yeye Boar Town, but after all, it is necessary to take a boat or a carriage, which is a bit bumpy, so it is safest to stay at home.
He couldn't bear to let his wife have to work hard with a big belly.
Gu Rao smiled from the bottom of her heart.
She had seen that Wen Mo was a person who doted on his wife.
It's just that, after all, there are limitations of the times, the man of this era, the education he received, and the influence of the length environment, and then he fell in love with his wife, and he also paid attention to red tape and the face of the literati.
Now it seems that as long as they love each other enough, they are willing to give in to deal with each other, and they are willing to do something 'unruly' for each other.
It's that she thinks people too one-sidedly.
"Okay."
-
After Wenmo returned home, he told his wife that he was going to leave home tomorrow and go to Wild Boar Town to learn cooking.
Lu Zhi refused without thinking about it.
"The gentleman is far away from cooking, if you go to be a cook and your classmates know about it, don't you have to laugh at you?"
"It will affect the future career."
Wen Mo took two steps forward, put Lu Zhi's hands in his hands, and said solemnly, "Lady, I won't let you suffer with me for too long, I promised you before that I will definitely let you live a good life, and this promise will definitely be fulfilled." ”
"You are pregnant now, you just need to take care of the baby at home, don't think about anything else, earning money to support the family is what I should do as a husband."
Lu Zhi shook her head.
"This is the home of the two of us, how can we hold you up alone? I can learn to cook, don't you praise me for the deliciousness of my cooking? ”
Wen Mo smiled and said, "Your cooking skills are already very good, but what I went to learn this time is the dishes of the small good restaurant, their restaurant is big, and the business is good, as long as you learn the dishes inside, the business of the restaurant we open in the future will also be good." ”
"You have a big belly, you shouldn't run around, wait until I learn it, and then come back to teach you, okay?"
Lu Zhi pursed her lips.
"Not good."
"You can't learn those dishes in a day or two, right? Are you going to leave me alone at home? ”
Wen Mo suggested, "On the days when I'm not at home, you can go back to your parents' house for a few days, and when I come back, I'll pick you up in person." ”
Lu Zhi said stubbornly, "You can take me with you, I won't make trouble for you." ”
Wen Mo touched her head and coaxed, "It's really inconvenient for you now, when you give birth to a child, I will take you wherever you want, just a few days apart, I will definitely come back as soon as possible." ”
"Well, wait at home for me to come back."
Lu Zhi was a little speechless and stopped.
Wenmo asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Zhi sighed.
"I've been feeling tight and short of breath for the past few days, sleeping and having nightmares, always feeling like something bad is going to happen, and always worrying about what will happen to you."
Wen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought it was something, it turned out to be a nightmare, you, you just love to think nonsense, you must be thinking day and night."
Lu Zhi was still worried.
"You don't want to be a lawyer, okay?"
"I'm afraid."
Wen Mo was silent for a while, and then said half-loudly, "No matter how mediocre the county order is, it doesn't dare to cause trouble, and the biggest threat to me is nothing more than ending my imperial examination road." ”
