Chapter 2 The Shen family has a merchant girl
The Shen family is really a big family, and it is difficult not to be rich and rich with this silk and satin.
Song Che took a picture of the bronze mirror, no way, a handsome person looks good in anything, but this short hair is a little out of tune.
Song Che walked in the courtyard corridor of the house, and when the maids and maids who came and went saw it, they all had to smile and say goodbye:
"Hello uncle!"
"Hey, good, good, Goode Cat Ning, Goode Cat Ning ......"
"Hehehe...... Why does this uncle look stupid. β
β¦β¦
The old man, Shen Tian, has a slightly fat posture, a kind face, and bright eyes, after all, he is the head of the family, and he is full of courage.
Mother-in-law Zhou Yumei, although she is middle-aged, she is still charming, no wonder she can give birth to her daughter so beautifully, but her posture is a little high, and her eyes are full of contempt.
Song Che gave tea to the two high halls, and the family moved to the dining room for breakfast.
Jiangnan people have a small amount of breakfast but a variety of styles, more than a dozen dishes, more meat and less meat.
Song Che has never eaten a bite of rice since he crossed over, his stomach has already growled, he doesn't pay attention to chewing and swallowing slowly, he only knows how to eat big, anyway, he eats soft rice, and he doesn't eat it for nothing.
"I heard that my son-in-law has amnesia, but do you still remember my name?" The old man hesitated for a long time before asking.
Yes, I don't even know people's names, so I kidnap them as an upside down door! If it weren't for your daughter's beauty, Lao Tzu would have run away with a bucket!
Song Che said casually: "Song Che, clear Che." β
The old man hesitated for a while before he smiled and said seriously: "This ...... Uh, Song Che, when you enter the door of the Shen family, you are a member of the Shen family-
As the saying goes, 'no matter how stupid a donkey is, he knows how to grind after spurring twice', our Shen family has been in business for generations, and you have to learn to help a little, don't ask for too much understanding, just do things according to the rules. β
Song Che nodded in response and continued to nibble on xiaolongbao. It turns out that the ancient buns are so delicious......
The Shen family may not know that Song Che was a top student who graduated from the University of Economics and Business before his death, and it was because of a quarrel with his boss over a 100 million yuan project that he was forced to resign, and he was depressed.
"Wenjun, after breakfast, you take Song Che to the shop to go around, let him get acquainted with our business, and next month's Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, let's bring him with you." Shen Tian said.
"Huh?" Shen Wenjun looked incredulous: "Dad, aren't you joking?" When the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce, all the big businessmen in Jiangnan had to be present, and he was ...... It's stupid to look at, aren't we afraid of making people laugh when we take him there? β
Shen Tian said in a deep voice: "Bringing a boy is always better than taking your own daughter every year." β
Shen Wenjun wanted to speak, but stopped, wanted to speak, and stopped, so he had to bite his lip, and there was sadness in his eyes.
In ancient times, especially in the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River, girls stayed at home, and in the boudoir, young women taught their husbands and children, and abided by the discipline. There are really that kind of women who are inspirational to achieve a career, but they are also very rare and extremely difficult.
The feudal tradition has stifled too much convenience for women and given women too many tragedies.
Song Che looked at Shen Wenjun, and felt a little sympathetic for a while, the stronger the person, the more fragile he is.
"Look at what! Eat your buns! Shen Wenjun noticed Song Che's gaze, picked up a xiaolongbao and stuffed it into his mouth.
The mother-in-law came to a mouth at this time, "If you want me to say, don't go either, you can go alone, the most important thing at the moment is to spread the branches and leaves for the Shen family!" Aunt Li, who works in the room, is two years younger than me, and her grandchildren can stand and walkβ"
"Smack!"
Shen Wenjun slapped the chopsticks on the table, "I'm full!" With a gloomy face, he fled as if he had gotten off the table.
"Look at you, you made your daughter angry again, this birth is not a matter of a day or two, you can't be in a hurry, take your time!" The old man rebuked.
Not to be outdone: "You don't have to give birth to a child, of course you say it lightly, from preparing for pregnancy, asking for a child, conceiving a baby, raising a baby, delivering a baby, confinement, which does not take effort, which does not suffer?" β
The old man muttered: "You understand so well, I haven't seen you give birth to a son......"
"Wow, Shen Tian, you have no conscience, you finally said what was in your heart, right? No wonder you want to take a concubine, it turns out ...... So you've long since disliked me! β
"Oh, madam, don't say this in front of your son-in-law, when did I say that I was going to take a concubine?"
"I ...... Also full. β
Song Che saw that the situation was not good, threw his chopsticks, quickly got off the table, and fled from the dining room.
β¦β¦
Song Che questioned the servants in the Shen Mansion, and finally found his "original equipment" in the utility room.
He hurriedly took out his trouser pocket, the cigarette and the lighter were not missing, he was ecstatic, and he couldn't wait to light one and take a puff of "hiss......".
Nicotine quickly flooded the brain, and with ......the smoke slowly exhaled, all the troubles were swept away, as if it had been reborn.
Then he rummaged through his backpack.
He is always a prepared person, so everything is well prepared, mobile phones, power banks, anti-animal batons, first aid kits......
The mobile phone is still in standby, the power is still half, the signal is definitely gone, the power bank is still full, with its 20,000 mAh storage power, it can be charged four times.
Except for the medicine in the first aid kit, everything else was embarrassing and useful in ancient times, but at least it could be used as food for thought.
Song Che looked at Nana's cigarette in his hand, and couldn't help but think about the future-
Return, probably can't go back.
And even if you can go back, if you fall from Huashan, you will end up crippled for life if you don't burp.
Although the old man recruited himself as a son-in-law without saying a word, he really saved his life.
What's more, the white wife is really beautiful......
"Good!"
Song Che threw the cigarette butt on the ground, from today onwards, all the things that were lost in modern times, Lao Tzu will all be found in ancient times!
"Uncle, where are you, the carriage is ready, Miss is waiting for you to go!" A shout came from outside the hospital.
Song Che quickly stepped on the cigarette butt, turned off the mobile phone and stuffed it into his backpack, no one would disturb the utility room, and it was safe to hide things here.
He tucked a cigarette and a lighter into his sleeve and walked out of the house with a sound.
β¦β¦
"Our Shen family, starting from the grandfather's generation, a cloth cloth into Suzhou, after four generations of hard work, only to have today's family business, which is the oldest, the brightest signboard, the highest reputation, is also a household name, one of the four famous embroidery 'Suzhou embroidery', from textile, bleaching and dyeing, embroidery, clothing, can be said to be sold all over the country......"
Inside the carriage, Shen Wenjun proudly introduced the history of his family.
Song Che lifted the curtains and enjoyed the scenery in Suzhou along the way, the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, the business and travel exchanges, the treasures of the world, the outstanding people, the white ding, the excellent travel, and the floating life.
For a moment, he also felt that it was not bad to live in an era without engines and exhaust gases.
"Song Che!"
"Huh?"
"Are you listening?" Shen Wenjun glared.
Song Che plucked out his ears, "Listen, listen," the left ear listened, and the right ear came out, and he suddenly wondered: "I heard Fu'er say last night that the Liang Dynasty was surrounded by tigers and wolves, and there were fleeing homeless people everywhere, why didn't Suzhou City see it?" β
"When you go out of the city in the future, you will be able to see it," Shen Wenjun's eyes were lonely, and he couldn't help but sigh softly: "It's a pity that the troubled times are powerless, and all businesses have been affected, otherwise, with my father's kindness, I will definitely scatter my wealth to help the refugees, even if I give a bowl of porridge, I can kill many people." β
There are water thieves on the waterway, there are rogues on the sea route, and bandits on the land route, in such a chaotic situation, no matter how much money is paid, it is estimated that no dart bureau will dare to take the job.
Especially for merchants like the Shen family who sell all over the country, once the transportation and logistics are cut off, the strength can still live on the old bottom, and those who lack strength can directly file for bankruptcy.
Civilian thieves are one of them, and official thieves are the second.
The national strength consumed by marching and fighting will be turned into high taxes in disguise, and the people's fat and ointment will be dried up and scraped off.
What can I do if I'm hungry? Men can only be thieves, and women can only sell themselves.
And so on, a vicious circle.
Xing, the people are bitter.
Death, the people suffer.
Throughout ancient and modern history, if a dynasty develops to such a point, the fortunes of the country will be in jeopardy.
Song Che let out a long sigh, why did he just travel into this troubled world?
"What are you sighing again?" Shen Wenjun was curious.
Song Che smiled: "I'm afraid that in the end, I won't even have to eat soft rice." β
"Heh......" Shen Wenjun disdained: "The frog at the bottom of the well, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you." β
Chatter.
The carriage stopped in front of a shop called "Shuiyunfang".
Shuiyunfang has four facades, three stories high, and you can see that the face of the door is extraordinary.
Song Che followed Shen Wenjun out of the carriage, and before he could enter the door, a beautiful woman ran out after the two young women, and she said in a reserved tone: "Xiuyun, Sister Ma, I will increase your monthly money by fifty wen again, don't go......"
Looks like someone is planning to run away.
"Miss Shen......" The two young women saw Shen Wenjun and lowered their heads in shame.
Shen Wenjun's eyes flashed a little helplessly, and he moved away, what should come will always come, and what should go can't be kept.
The young woman, who looked quite old, suddenly held Shen Wenjun's hand, her eyes were full of tears: "I'm sorry Miss Shen, it was originally forty yuan a bucket of rice, but now it has tripled, and I still have two milk babies at home, it's really ...... It's ......."
Shen Wenjun just patted the back of the young woman's hand and greeted the woman in red shirt: "Qin Ruo, go and help me wrap ten taels of silver each, it will be counted as a parting gift." β
"Miss Shen, this can't be helped! No way! The two young women hurriedly shook their heads.
Shen Wenjun said sincerely: "Both of them are female celebrities in Shuiyunfang for ten years, and the credit and hard work are counted together, and ten taels of silver are not much. β
"Miss Shen......" The two young women burst into tears.
Song Che stood aside with her waist crossed, looking at the eldest lady with moist eyes, sincere, kind, beautiful, human, sophisticated, except for not letting her husband go to bed, there was almost no flaw.
"Yo, what a bitter drama, I can't bear to dig into the wall!"
"Da Da Da ......"
A palatial carriage drove slowly, a origami fan pushed up the curtain, and a yellow cedar man strode out, he threw off his hairband, thinking that he was handsome and chic, but in fact he had a horse face and triangular eyes, and the corners of his mouth were raised high, and he looked really bitter.
It turned out that they didn't run away, but changed jobs.
