Chapter 498: Concubines Come to the Door (1)
"My own sister, it's too foreign to say this, Gu Chengye is a capable person and a relative, such a person helps me manage the restaurant, I am much more relieved. Wouldn't it be a waste to put such a good candidate without it? Yun Xue also sat on the mat and said while teasing the little doll.
"Thank you anyway. If you want to find a knowledgeable restaurant shopkeeper, it shouldn't be difficult, but for us, you just let Chengye pass. He hadn't done this before at all, and he didn't understand anything, which means that you have the courage to use him. "Yuchan is really grateful to Yun Xue. Needless to say, Gu Chengye spent all day at the restaurant, and he didn't dare to be negligent at all.
Yun Xue picked up the little girl, and looked at the little guy's big watery eyes and white and ruddy little face, which was very interesting. "Okay, don't talk about this, don't look at anything else, just at the little nephew and niece, I have to stretch out my hand. In order to save a dowry for our Jiaojiao, my aunt also has to find a way to make your father earn more money, right? Yun Xue said as she teased the girl with her eyebrows.
Jiaojiaoer is the name of the little girl. Gu Chengye named his daughter Gu Yuejiao, and the big guy called her Jiaojiaoer. The little girl was amused by Yun Xue's strange appearance, and she kept giggling. The chubby little hand stretched out and waved wildly in front of Yun Xue.
Yun Xue likes children the most, and every time she sees a beautiful little doll, she can't move, so she has to wrap it for a while. Meiyu's daughters, as well as Yuchan's daughters, are very beautiful, plus they are cleaned up cleanly, there is no dirt at all, and there is no other taste, which is particularly attractive.
"Look at you like this, if you like it, just get married and have a few yourself. Whoever is greedy for other people's children, no matter how good others are, they are not as good as their own children. Seeing Yunxue like this, Yuchan couldn't help but say.
"You don't want to think about it, now that Zhiyuan is in Gao Li, I just think, don't you have to come back?" Yun Xue sighed helplessly. She and Shen Hongjun have gotten along so far, and she really can't wait to get married quickly. But in many things, she can't help but say, and the country's major affairs are ahead, where can they influence them?
Yuchan was just about to open her mouth to say something else, when there was a sound of slapping outside the door again. Aunt Ma hurriedly went to open the door, and then turned her head and said. "Madam, the person outside said it was your sister-in-law, did you let her in?"
Yuchan was stunned for a moment, this is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family. Yuchan is a little strange, the people of the Gu family have already isolated their husband and wife, even when they gave birth to a child for a full moon, the people of the Gu family didn't say that they came to congratulate her, what are you doing now?
Since Gu Chengye broke up, he didn't leave his family alone, and he still went back to visit his parents during the New Year's holidays. Almost every other month, Gu Chengye would go home to have a look, and accompany Gu Taiqing to talk or something. Recently, it was supposed to be the Dragon Boat Festival, and then I didn't go back because there were too many things to open the restaurant.
Compared with Gu Chengye's filial piety, the performance of the Gu family is very disappointing. Not only did the good days of the two children not come, but even Yuqi married a relative, and Gu Chengye specially told his family, in order to ease the relationship between the two. But none of the people from the Gu family came over. Obviously, the Gu family didn't want to have anything to do with the Wu family at all.
For these, Yuchan is not without opinions. But when Gu Chengye was very good to himself and his parents, Yuchan couldn't say anything more. That's it, just don't have this relative. Gu Chengye is filial, that's his business, he won't stop it, but he won't go back. As for what the people of the Gu family think, Yuchan doesn't care at all.
When people get along, there must always be contacts between them, and it makes no sense that the Gu family looks high, and then the people of the Wu family have no face to go to the close. It's better to be far away, out of sight and out of mind, and save yourself from worry.
However, what is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family coming here for today? "Let her in." Anyway, after all, she is a member of the Gu family, and Yuchan can't keep people out of the door even if she looks at her husband's face.
Coming in from the outside was Feng Shi, the daughter-in-law of Gu Chengyuan, the second eldest of the Gu family, and she followed Aunt Ma into the courtyard with envy. Gu Chengye's house is much bigger than theirs. There are five main rooms, as well as east and west wings, and the whole dozen or so rooms, and the yard is clean and tidy.
This house, even if it is rented, the rent can't be too cheap if you want to, and there are still people at home, how much does it cost a month? It seems that the third child is really developed this time. The last time my husband came back and said that the third child is now the shopkeeper in the best restaurant in the county, and he still doesn't believe it. Now that I look at it, what my husband said is really true.
Although Feng Shi felt uncomfortable, he didn't show any of it on his face, but just smiled at Yuchan and said, "Brother and sister, I'll come and see you." ”
Yuchan looked at Feng Shi with a smile on her face, and replied lightly, "Sister-in-law is worried, Aunt Ma, quickly pour a cup of tea for my second sister-in-law." Yuchan sneered in her heart, she didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, this second sister-in-law is very ghostly, and she won't come to talk to her if she has nothing to do.
Last time, Gu Chengyuan went to the restaurant with the master's house and met Gu Chengye. Gu Chengye treats his family quite realistically, so he told Gu Chengyuan his current address. That's why Feng was able to find it today.
"We all live in the county now, and we are all the daughters-in-law of the Gu family, so we should have more contacts with each other. Isn't that right, brother and sister? Feng sat on the stool that Aunt Ma had brought here, and it happened to be a little shady, but it was not very hot. She held the tea in her hand and looked at Yuchan and Yunxue and the others with a smile.
"That's natural, relatives, you have to move. My sister-in-law didn't come, and I knew that my sister-in-law was busy with things on weekdays and didn't have time to come. I don't know, why don't we be too unkind, and when we come to the county, we don't know our own brothers? Even my brother and sister-in-law don't come to walk around. Yuchan smiled on her face, but the words in her mouth were not polite.
They have all moved here for so long, and Gu Chengye has already told his family the address, but none of the Gu family has come. I just ran to talk about walking around today, who will believe this?
Feng Shi also heard that Yuchan's words were wrong, and his face was a little uncomfortable, "I was busy at home a while ago, and I really didn't have time to go out and walk around, so don't go to my heart brother and sister." "She came today to have a good relationship with Yuchan.
Gu Chengyuan worked as an accountkeeper in other people's homes, and he originally did quite well, and he also had an income of fifty or sixty taels of silver a year. In the county town, they only have two families, and in addition to eating, drinking, and flowers, they can save a few. But a distant relative of the master's family came a year later, and he followed Gu Chengyuan to manage the accounts. Now the meaning of the master's words is that he wants to quit Gu Chengyuan and let his relatives take care of the accounts.
Gu Chengyuan is also worried these days, he is literate, but he has been in charge of accounts in this house all these years. If he were to find a job elsewhere now, it would be a real problem. Ordinary people can't afford to hire an account room, how many big families can there be in this county? It is impossible for someone else's bookkeeper to make room for him.
Seeing that her husband was so embarrassed, Feng Shi just remembered Gu Chengye, "Isn't the third child of our family working as a shopkeeper in a restaurant?" It's better to go find the third child and see if you can go over to him as a bookkeeper or something. Since the third child's restaurant business is very good, and the salary of a person like you is not bad, isn't this a matter of his words? ”
Gu Chengyuan shook his head, "You don't know, the restaurant was opened by the cousin of the third daughter-in-law, and the third child also relied on being Yuchan's husband, so he could be the big shopkeeper in the past." Otherwise, he is a person who has never been a shopkeeper, why would people use him? It's useless to find the third child in this matter, he said it doesn't count. ”
Feng Shi heard her husband say this, and only then did she understand the secret. At this time, the Gu family asked people to bring a letter, saying that Gu Xiulan's family affairs had been settled, and they were going to get married in August. Yuan's meaning was naturally to let the sons go back and discuss how to prepare the dowry for Gu Xiulan.
Feng Shi found such an excuse, so he came to Gu Chengye's house, planning to walk around with Yuchan more to see if he could let Yuchan talk and get his own man to do things in the restaurant. But when she came and saw that Yuchan was doing well, she was unbalanced again.
Yu Chancai didn't care what Feng thought in his heart, after listening to Feng's words, he just nodded and forgot it. "When Chengye comes back, I'll just tell Chengye to see when he's free, and I'll go back to town. The sister-in-law's family affairs have been settled, this is a good thing, Chengye is an elder brother, and he should make a contribution. ”
No matter what, blood ties can't be broken. Yuchan didn't expect her husband to forget all her parents and relatives, and only lived with her. As long as the Yuan family doesn't appear in front of him and doesn't embarrass himself, Yuchan really doesn't want to care about the rest of the things. After all, it is Gu Chengye who makes money, as long as he can make his wife and children live well, the rest of the things are casual.
When Feng heard Yuchan say this, his heart twitched. She came to Yuchan to discuss how to take less silver. After all, they are all separated, and the Gu family does not have no family background at all, why should the daughter marry and have to pay for the son? "Yo, my brother and daughter-in-law are really generous, it seems that this day is really good. You broke up at the beginning, but you didn't benefit at all, and now you are really willing to take the money back? Feng Shi looked at Yuchan with a little surprise.
Yuchan shook her head and smiled, "It's good that men are in charge of these things." The money they earn and how they like to use it is their business. As long as we can feed and clothe our girls, I don't care about the rest. ”
