Chapter 33 Storm
"I'm not sure." Fan Jin frowned and said hesitantly: "I've been to the nearby Nanning Prefecture and Huaning Prefecture for study and exams in the past, but after all, I'm a poor scholar, so I don't think I'll be the target of the attack."
Even if there are vicious people with malicious intentions, the appropriate target will be the wealthy businessman who is alone, not the poor scholar.
Fan Jin's words are implicit, but Shui Qing understands.
She looked at the elegant and gentle Fan Jin, who had a scholarly aura and looked easy to bully.
Such a person, with a batch of valuable medicinal materials, or with silver when returning to the city... is no different from a fat sheep.
"Forget it, let's sell it in Guangning Prefecture first, and then think of other ways to make money later."
Fan Jin listened to Shui Qing.
His son is young, and it's dangerous to take his daughter out. He is not afraid to go out alone, but he is only worried that he will not make money and the medicinal materials will be gone.
Shui Qing looked at Fan Jin's relaxed look, and there were several ways to make money in her mind, but without exception, they all involved doing business.
The status of merchants in all dynasties was low, and there were various ways to emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, and the Ming Dynasty she belonged to was no exception.
Merchants could not become officials, and even their marriages were affected.
They "dig" medicinal herbs and sell them, and collect some chicken head rice in the village, which still belonged to the scope of "agriculture". If they really opened a shop and did business across regions, not only would Fan Jin's future as an official be ruined, but his children would inevitably be affected.
Besides, Fan Jin was not a material for doing business.
He preferred reading and writing.
Shui Qing thought about herself, she was Fan Jin's wife, and the two were in a bound relationship, which was definitely not allowed to be done openly.
I can only train the next generation well and see if any of the five children have business talent... At worst, I can divide them up. Uh, she is not the biological mother, so cruel...
Shui Qing, who was sleeping in the thatched hut in the middle of the night, tossed and turned, and realized that there was a reason why the thatched hut that cost nothing was eliminated.
It was not warm in winter and not cool in summer. It seemed that there was really no advantage except that it could shelter from wind and rain.
As she turned over, she felt a warm current flowing under her body.
The familiar feeling made her turn over quickly, and without disturbing the two daughters on the wooden bed opposite, she quietly walked out of the house.
There were three thatched huts, one for food and other items, and the remaining two rooms, one for her and her two daughters, and one for Fan Jin and his three sons.
Walking into the simple toilet surrounded by the fence, she picked up the hem of her clothes and took a look. Sure enough.
Skillfully opened the mall, she spent two thousand to open daily necessities, found the ones that suited her and bought them.
Looking at the balance of less than eight thousand, she sighed sadly.
I hope no one gets sick or anything unexpected happens during this period...
·
Early in the morning, at least it was early in the morning for Shuiqing.
The noisy sound woke her up.
She was grumpy when she got up and pushed open the door with a gloomy face to see who was howling outside the house early in the morning!
"Grandma, stop crying. My mother tossed and turned and didn't sleep well last night. Let her sleep more." Yan Qiu frowned and persuaded patiently.
Mother Fan slapped her thigh and cried even more happily: "My poor son, he went to the capital to copy books before dawn, and the mother-in-law at home was still sleeping in at noon. My son has a miserable life
As a mother-in-law, I want to enter my son's room, but I have to be stopped by a group of grandchildren I raised by myself. They are really a group of ungrateful people. Why is my life so miserable"
Shuiqing understood.
Don't say, did Mother Fan learn this crying?
Or did she learn it by herself? How come she is the same as some mothers-in-law in China?
Fan He hurriedly explained: "Grandma, I was tired yesterday, so I got up late today by accident. It's not like that usually."
"No need to explain, I just slept in on purpose. Not only did I get up late yesterday and today, but I will get up whenever I want in the future!
What's wrong? It's my own home, and I have to ask other people's opinions when I sleep?" Shui Qing interrupted her eldest son's explanation and said directly.
Fan's mother didn't expect the second daughter-in-law to be so shameless and bluntly refuted, and she was speechless.
After a while, she pointed her finger at Shui Qing and scolded: "Don't think that you are great because someone from your mother's family built you a thatched house yesterday!
What's so great about a worthless thatched house?"
"Since the thatched house is worthless, then mother-in-law, build me another one." Shui Qing said with a yawn.
Fan's mother:.....She meant to tell Mrs. Hu not to be so arrogant!
"Sister-in-law, since the family has been separated, how can you have the nerve to ask your mother-in-law to build a house for you again?" A disapproving voice came from the side.
Shuiqing looked up, oh, her sister-in-law was here too.
This sister-in-law was not necessarily harmonious and filial with Fan's mother when she was not around, but as long as she was present, Sun Jinhua would do her best to show that she was extremely obedient and respectful to her mother-in-law.
She deliberately stretched out her tone: "Hey, the family has been separated"
Sun Jinhua's face darkened.
Fan's mother's face darkened even more, "I can control my son, as for you, you should obey my son after you marry. This is the old Fan family, not your Hu family!
You want to bully my son and bully him. I will deal with you."
Yan Qiu Fanhe looked nervous and quietly moved in front of Shuiqing.
Shuiqing looked at the actions of the two children, pulled one behind her with one hand, and asked with her hair raised: "Why does the mother-in-law only say half of the words?"
Fan's mother looked confused.
Shuiqing continued: "After a marriage, a woman should obey her husband. I remember the last sentence is "After the husband dies, she should obey her son". Now that her father-in-law is gone, the mother-in-law should listen to her son, right?
Also, this house was built by my Hu family. If the mother-in-law divides the Fan family and the Hu family so clearly, she can just tell your son not to enter this house when he comes back.
Oh, if the mother-in-law doesn't want to build a house for your son, she can still bring your son back to live. I believe his elder brother and sister-in-law will not object, right?"
Fan's mother was so angry that she trembled all over, "You you"
It seems that there is really no way to live in a thatched house. Butcher Hu is not an easy person to get along with.
The butcher who makes a living by killing pigs has a bad temper in his bones. If he lets his daughter move out of the house he built, I'm afraid he will never let her go!
But if he brings the second child back to live...After the second child's family is separated, their room will be immediately given to Jin Sun. If he lets the grandson give it up, he will hate her as a grandmother.
Sun Jinhua was afraid that the person she had driven out with great difficulty would come back again, so she hurriedly expressed her opinion: "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. How can we let your sister-in-law and husband separate? What kind of people will we be?"
"Okay, there is not much food at home, so I won't keep my mother-in-law and sister-in-law for dinner." Shuiqing waved her hand, and it was obvious that she wanted to send the guests away.
Fan's mother, who wanted to show her power first, found that her daughter-in-law did not shrink back and beg her humbly, but instead made herself speechless.
She felt so depressed.
The two of them came with their heads held high, and then went back with their heads down like defeated roosters.
On the way, Sun Jinhua complained: "I said that the second family is different now, but you didn't believe it, mother-in-law!
Now it's all right, it's a waste of time."
Fan's mother thought that she didn't behave well on the day of the separation, and she had thought of words last night to suppress the second daughter-in-law, but she didn't expect that she didn't say it.
She took a deep breath and said viciously: "Let's go and find your eldest cousin!"
We must not let Hu Shuiqing, the prodigal woman, exchange rice for chicken head rice again!
