Chapter 498: Wang Ximeng, Zhao Jiajun, Fan Wai

Wang Ximeng and Zhao Jiajun returned to their hometown in embarrassment, because Zhao Jiajun no longer had the fame of Xiucai, so Tian Tax and Yao Service could no longer be exempted.

Whether there is a conflict between their husband and wife, they can't tell the truth in their hometown.

Wang Ximeng was glad that she had bought a house in the county before, and now that the family lives in it, she can at least have no worries about food and clothing.

The Zhao family only thought that Zhao Jiajun had been affected by the scourge of the two kings, so he was removed from his fame, and there was no other way than to sigh.

Originally, I was expecting Zhao Jiajun to be able to throw himself into the ground, but now it seems to be in vain.

Zhao Jiajun and Wang Ximeng lived in the county seat, and now in addition to a lotus, there is only an old servant couple left.

Zhao Jiajun was drugged by Wang Ximeng as early as when he was in the capital, and it is impossible for him to be pregnant, but he himself doesn't know, since he knew that the future is hopeless, he seems to have broken the jar, and he either drinks or messes around with lotus flowers all day long.

Wang Ximeng is not angry now, mainly because Zhao Jiajun has no sense of existence in her.

She didn't care at all!

Anyway, the money is in her hands, and Zhao Jiajun doesn't know what the family background is, it's all up to her.

"I'm thinking of getting another restaurant to earn more and less every day, at least enough to feed our family."

Wang Ximeng has also gained knowledge in the capital in the end, whether it is selling steamed buns or wontons, it is not a problem.

Of course, Wang Ximeng won't do it herself, it's too hard, and she still has a pair of children to take care of.

Wang Ximeng took advantage of Zhao Jiajun's wakefulness, so he discussed with him that he wanted to rent a shop outside, and then buy a pair of servants to come back and run the shop.

In fact, it's almost the same as when I was in the capital.

Zhao Jiajun has no opinion, but he also knows that there is not much money left at home.

"How much silver do we have?"

"It's less than a hundred taels, so I said I can only rent a shop. I'll go to the dental shop in a while to see if there are any craftsmen who can cook, and if there is, the restaurant will be easier to open."

"Okay." Zhao Jiajun actually doesn't have any ideas, he doesn't make money in the first place, he has always just read and write, and now he is like this, he doesn't want to go out to meet people, he always feels that when he goes out, people outside are laughing at him for being an incompetent!

It's okay if he doesn't go out, but Wang Ximeng won't worry that he is fooling around outside.

As for the lotus, it is not so good.

Just let her be idle for a few days when she first came back, how could she be allowed to follow Zhao Jiajun every day and just enjoy the happiness, regardless of the work?

"Zhao Lang, although you have lost your fame, but the knowledge in this belly is not fake, I think it is better to teach in the private school in the village, and not too much restraint, just let the people in the village give some food. What do you think?"

As long as Zhao Jiajun is not allowed to eat rice!

But Zhao Jiajun was not happy.

He doesn't even want to go out of his house now, so how can he be willing to teach?

Won't it be laughed at?

Wang Xi dreamed that he couldn't convince him, so he had to give up.

Stay at home, just stay at home, if you can't do it, I'll ask about the work of copying books.

Zhao Jiajun's handwriting is still good.

Here in Gao County, everything is cheap.

Rent a small restaurant with only a front room, and when it's time to do business, put up a cloth outside, and then put a few tables and chairs at the door, so the cost will be much lower.

Mainly, that's what everybody does.

The rent was fifteen taels a year, and Wang Ximeng directly signed a two-year deed with others.

After that, Wang Ximeng went to the tooth shop again.

It's a pity that I didn't pick it.

After waiting for a few more days, I heard that there was a newcomer in the dental shop, so I picked a middle-aged couple.

The couple has a little girl, and if they want to buy it, they have to buy their family of three, which is selling themselves.

When Wang Ximeng asked, he knew that they were a family

The son came from the next county, and the family was separated, because the man was not favored, he was directly cleaned out of the house, and then he injured his leg while selling coolies, so he hollowed out the family and had no choice, so he had to think of such an idea.

Wang Ximeng bought their family of three for ten taels of silver, and then took them to the restaurant.

The couple was quite capable, and the woman was already a cook, so with a little instruction, they could master it.

As for their daughter, they stay at home to do some chores, and Wang Ximeng has no hobby of abusing child labor, but she can't spend money to buy an idler to come back for dinner, right?

Because the restaurant is small, after closing the stall, the couple will go back to the owner's house, and then prepare the corresponding ingredients there, and then come back to the restaurant early the next morning.

Fortunately, it is not far away, otherwise it will be sinned.

The restaurant only makes breakfast and lunch, after all, it is just two people who are busy, and Gaoyang County is not the capital, it is not so lively, and after opening for half a month, Wang Ximeng got about 300 yuan.

Compared with the capital, it is far behind.

But what can be done?

Three hundred wen to buy food is enough for their family to eat for two months.

Wang Ximeng could only sigh, let's do it first, at least there is progress every month, it is better than sitting on a mountain and eating empty.

After Wang Ximeng saw that the restaurant was on the right track, he got out the balsam powder he had made before.

Although it is still rough, in Gaoyang County, it is completely fine.

However, because there are few sales, Wang Ximeng does not need to hire people, and he can finish these things by himself.

The old servant couple in the family, one is responsible for guarding the door, and the other is mainly responsible for cooking.

The lotus basically takes care of other jobs, and the little girl is young because she is young, so now she is mainly responsible for sweeping the floor, and then helping the old woman take care of the child.

Breakfast was made with lotus flowers, and the old woman slept with her children at night and couldn't get up in the morning, so she was only responsible for lunch and dinner, and the rest of the time was to take care of the children.

Why didn't you let Zhao Jiajun's parents help?

Don't you need to plant the fields in your home?

And now that Zhao Jiajun has no fame, the field can't be thrown.

After so many years of struggle, Wang Ximeng can be regarded as seeing that in this era, farmland is the most valuable thing!

In any case, the field cannot be sold.

Not only can it not be sold, but when you have money in the future, you have to buy land.

Wang Xi dreamed of having a son, and now he regrets why he was in a hurry to have a child in the first place.

She was afraid that Zhao Jiajun would abandon her after being promoted in the examination, so she thought about using the child to trap this man.

Well, now, the man is trapped.

But is this really the life she wants?

If that's all there is to it, forget it.

But who would have thought that Zhao's mother would come over from time to time to fight the autumn breeze, saying that the couple enjoyed happiness in the county town and didn't know how to be filial to their parents, this is a big mistake!

Wang Ximeng can't win every time she quarrels, and between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, no matter how strong she is, she is on the weak side, so she has to pay money almost every time.

How are you going to live this day?
