Dressed As a Mother-in-law, She Leads the Whole Family To Turn Over Chapter 191

Jiang Ning made a calculation for her and then asked: "Do you think it is more expensive to be a Shu Xiu from the Three Irons and Four Villages or to marry a scholar sister?"

Li was dumbfounded, "It can't be calculated like that! Anyway, I have my own ideas and you have yours. I can't explain it to you. Please help me think about Erya and Fugui first. What should I do? There is such a mother-in-law on the stall. I'm really going to be killed!”

Jiang Ning shook his head helplessly, "Mom, Erya will have to wait four or five years before she gets married, let alone riches and honors. It's still early! What do you want to do now? It's really impossible to marry so far away at that time. If you marry far away, you still worry about not being able to avoid the Qian family? "

Ms. Li sighed and squeezed out two tears from the corners of her eyes, "Why do you think these two children have such a miserable life?"

Jiang Ning chuckled, "I think they are quite lucky. If they live under Qian's hands for the rest of their lives, it would be a miserable life!"

Li thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was the case, and she figured it out after Jiang Ning talked about it.

This side of Fucheng.

Since the inn was on the right track, Yang Erdan asked Butler Zhu to hire a reliable accountant. He completely became a hands-off shopkeeper and focused exclusively on the workshop.

Since successfully firing the first generation of new bricks, he has developed a keen interest in firing bricks and is committed to firing more high-quality bricks. Even tiles and floor tiles are within the scope of his research. To this end, he also I found out about the workshops of many old masters and visited them one by one to ask for advice.

He was concentrating on his work when Butler Zhu came in with a bundle and said, "Second Young Master, Madam has sent something."

Yang Erdan quickly stood up, took it, and opened it. There was a bag of silver and a letter in the bundle.

In the letter, Jiang Ning briefly talked about what happened in Rongshu Village, and explained the reason why he could not leave the village. Finally, he mentioned his marriage. The package of silver was used by Yang Erdan to hire a matchmaker to prepare the betrothal gift.

After reading the letter, Yang Erdan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and asked Butler Zhu: "How do you invite an official mediator and how much money do you need?"

“The second young master is getting engaged? Congratulations! I wonder which girl is so lucky!” Butler Zhu congratulated her repeatedly.

Yang Erdan's mouth widened and he said, “She is Xu Xiucai's sister.”

Butler Zhu nodded in approval, "Although the Xu family's financial resources are a bit thin, Xu Xiucai is a promising person. Recently, many matchmakers have been asking about his marriage!"

“Oh? What's going on?”

Seeing Yang Erdan's curiosity, Butler Zhu said cheerfully: "It's not like Zhuangzi has produced five talents this time, and its reputation has been completely established. So many talents must be eye-catching, and matchmakers come here every day to inquire about the situation."

"Five scholars? I know Xu Nuoshan, Gong Haining, Hua Yongnian, and the scholar in white who came that day. It seems that Ren Zijun also passed the exam. Who is the other one?"

Butler Zhu pointed to the other end of the inn and said: "The frail young man who lives in Bingding's guest room is not in good health. His name is Duan Wentao. He has been staying in seclusion since he moved into our inn, and all his food is provided by the waiter. You probably haven't seen him in the past. Even though Duan Xiucai is in poor health, he is still a matchmaker."

This time, Yang Erdan really saw everyone's enthusiasm for scholars, and he immediately said: "Now that all the lists have come out, if a few scholars have not left the inn, give them some good food, so as not to If I have enough food and accommodation for this period of time, I will go to the city to find the official media and buy some things. I will leave the recent affairs of Zhuangzi to you."

Butler Zhu agreed seriously, and then asked the cook to prepare braised pork, roast chicken, fish, and duck soup. A total of five portions were prepared and delivered to the residences of several scholars.

Ms. Zhou was putting away shoe soles in the yard when she saw a servant coming with a food box. She quickly stepped forward to stop him, "I didn't order food from the inn."

Mrs. Qiu Zhang passed by the courtyard gate and said angrily: "Oh! It's really embarrassing that we are all talented ladies but they can't even afford this little thing!" "It's none of your business! Even if I can't afford it, so can my son. Scholar! Your son is nothing!" Mrs. Zhou became angry and showed less and less dignity to Qiu Zhang, and even learned to step on her sore spots.

Mrs. Qiu and Zhang were furious. She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to confront Mrs. Zhou.

The waiter hurriedly stopped him, "Don't argue, our boss has prepared this for a few scholars. The boss also said that all the food and lodging for these scholars will be included in the hotel during this period."

"Why!" Ms. Qiu Zhang's eyes widened, with a look of dissatisfaction, "Why do they have to pay the money if they can exempt us?"

The waiter laughed angrily at Qiu Zhang's question, "Madam, since our inn is open for business, we naturally have to collect money. The second young master has exempted you from living in Xiyuan because your young master and the third young master are classmates. Money, what else do you want?

If your young master is admitted as a scholar this time, he will naturally receive the same treatment as Xu Xiucai. After all, our inn always needs some gimmicks to attract business, don't you think? "

Qiu Zhang didn't care what was right or wrong, she was just angry and jealous. She snorted coldly and cursed: "A dog looks down on people! The inn will close down sooner or later!"

The waiter's face darkened, he returned to the inn with a straight face, and told Butler Zhu about the matter.

Xiyuan was previously occupied by several of Yang Santie's classmates. After the results were announced, except for the three people who were admitted as scholars and Qiu Tongsheng, they still lived there. The others had already returned as soon as possible.

Qiu Tongsheng also wanted to leave, but Qiu Zhang was unwilling to give in and kept making trouble. It seemed that they were at odds with the Xu family. They would not leave unless the Xu family left.

Steward Zhu turned a blind eye before, but now Mr. Qiu Zhang dares to curse the inn and he will never tolerate it.

In the afternoon of the same day, Butler Zhu brought two servants to Xiyuan and told Qiu Tongsheng what Qiu Zhang said in front of everyone.

Qiu Tongsheng's face turned blue and white.

Butler Zhu said with a sly smile: "I have met countless people over the years, but this is the first time I have seen someone like your mother. She feels at ease and has no money to leave a house where other people live, and at the same time she curses the owner of the house, you are Do you think our second young master is easy to bully or do you think this is a matter of course? "

Qiu Tongsheng looked horrified, "Butler Zhu, I didn't mean that. I never thought my mother would say such a thing! It's all her fault. I will personally apologize to the second young master."

Mrs. Qiu Zhang hid in her room when Butler Zhu brought people over, not daring to see anyone at all.

Butler Zhu waved his hand impatiently, "Forget it, this isn't the first time your mother has made trouble. Apologizing is useless. The main reason I came here is to tell you that there are some noble people coming to the inn. They are not short of money and want to stay." Here, the remaining courtyard in Xiyuan is not enough to live in. You are so considerate, you should be able to understand what I mean. "

Qiu Tongsheng was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. It took him a while to come back to his senses. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "I'll let my mother pack her luggage and move out today."

Steward Zhu nodded with satisfaction and led the people away.

Mrs. Qiu Zhang rushed out of the room and asked her son angrily, "What does he mean? Why should we leave when the next door has not left?"

Qiu Tongsheng looked at her with a gloomy face, "Why did you get into trouble? Why do I have a mother who can't handle it as well as you!"

Ms. Qiu Zhang argued unconvincedly, "Who did I offend? It's obvious that they are just watching people order food, why can't they say anything? If they still want to do business like this, bah!"
