Delicate Flower - Chapter 3
[Chapter 3 Homecoming]
Thinking about these past events will only make you feel down.
Yu Tang never wanted to touch the Li family again in this life, let alone deal with the Pei family.
She took this opportunity to blow wind to the aunt’s ear: “Even Pei’s shop has been burnt down, and our family’s shop can’t be preserved. Fortunately, the foundation is still there, and if there is a chance, we can always make a comeback. As for the goods in the shop, if The money will be doubled. If you can find a buyer of goods and have a good discussion with others, maybe they are willing to give some more time, and we will make a new batch of goods for the merchant, or you can pay less money. Changxing Street Water, no one thought of it, no one wants it!”
“That’s what I said. But I’m afraid it won’t work to delay the delivery.” Wang said with a wry smile, “You are a child, and no one at home usually tells you. Over the years, people from southern Fujian have made a lot of money by going overseas. The people in Hangzhou city were moved. Those who had the capital and ability would send a boat from the family and bring silk, tea, porcelain, etc. to form a fleet to do business. Those who didn’t have so much money, they took tea and silk. Waiting for the goods to go to sea. The person who orders lacquerware from our family is going to go to sea to do business. The fleet has already set a date for going to sea. If he can’t take out the goods he has invested in by the due date, the business will fail. We want double the compensation.”
Yu Tang in the previous life did not know about this, but Yu Tang in this life did.
The Li family was considered an upstart in Lin’an City.
Their family used to be rich, but there was a Pei family above them, so their family was not enough to look at.
It is said that counting up to three generations, the Li family will go to the Pei family to pay New Year’s greetings every year on the first day of the new year.
It was not until the grandfather of the Li family, that is, the grandfathers of Li Duan and Li Jun’s family, passed the Juren entrance examination, and their father passed the Jinshi examination again, and was the same year as the second master of the Pei family, and then slowly stood up straight.
Every year on the first day of the new year, when we go to pay New Year’s greetings to the Pei family, the people of the Li family can sit in the lobby of the Pei family and have a cup of tea.
Also because of this, although the Li family is noble, they have no way to use the power in their hands to expand their own industry – whether it is the mountains, rivers and rivers of Lin’an City, or street shops, most of them belong to the Pei family. Who would sell their ancestral property for nothing?
Even if they sell their ancestral property, everyone is habitually selling it to the Pei family.
Does the Li family still dare to fight against the Pei family?
But if you want to go far in the officialdom, you must not be greedy, you must manage your boss.
Both of them cost money.
If the Li family wants more money, they can only look outside.
After coming and going, the Li family started a business of going overseas.
Of course, going to sea is risky. In the event of a sea storm, it is often lost.
Many families in Hangzhou city went bankrupt because of this.
The Li family’s luck was good. The fleet that had voted nine times out of ten would return safely. After she married Li Jun’s tablet, the Li family began to get rich.
Li Jun’s mother praised her for having a prosperous husband, and Li Duan became more entangled with her because of this.
It’s ridiculous that when Li Jun fell off a horse and died, Li Jun’s mother pointed at her nose and scolded her as a “vix spirit”, saying that her beauty was a disaster…
It’s heartbreaking to mention the past.
Yu Tang hurriedly pressed all these pasts to the bottom of her heart, and continued to talk to her aunt about the shop: “Can we ask the merchant to discuss that our family will come forward and help him buy a batch of goods with high quality and quantity?”
Wang Shi’s eyes lit up when he looked at Yu Tang, and said, “You and I want to go together.”
As if she had found a confidant, she began to complain about her husband: “Your uncle will not agree. If you talk about Yu’s century-old brand, let alone Lin’an, there is no other family in Hangzhou whose craftsmanship is better than Yu’s. It’s better to pretend to be inferior. Shit, he can’t do this kind of thing.
“Your eldest brother said that there are several hundred-year-old lacquer goods in Jiangxi, and the products are not worse than ours. If your uncle is worried that the merchant will suffer, go there in person and watch other people’s shipments. That’s it. Your eldest uncle also thinks that the goods in Jiangxi are cheaper than ours. If this matter is known to others, the reputation of the Yu family’s hundred years will be ruined.
For the sake of petty profits, those merchants would rather go to Jiangxi to place an order. When our family loses their reputation, they will find buyers for the paint shop in Jiangxi for nothing.
”
Yu Tang knew that the eldest uncle was a little stubborn in business, otherwise he would not have had a disagreement with the big brother in business because of this in his previous life, but she did not expect the eldest uncle to be so stubborn.
She said: “Then you might as well ask your uncle to go to Hangzhou City. I heard that the most favorite things in the maritime business are tea, porcelain and silk, but less lacquer and tin ware. Some people know about the shop craftsmanship in Jiangxi. It’s not worse than ours, and the price is lower than ours, but the risk is not small in the past, and if there is any problem with the goods, it is not easy to return them, so why not give them to them?”
Wang Shi nodded straight, but the abacus in his heart cracked.
The son also said this before, but the husband was too stubborn to listen.
But if this was said by the second uncle, it would definitely be different.
The Wang family was looking forward to the early return of Yu Tang’s father Yu Wen.
Yu Tang came back ten years later, with her age and experience, she was calmer and calmer than a fifteen-year-old girl when she was in trouble, not to mention that what should have happened has already happened, it is useless to get angry, her mentality is better .
As her aunt wished, she stayed at home for a day, and then learned how to make snowflake cakes with Mrs. Wang.
The difference from her previous life was that it took her two days to learn how to make this dessert. In this life, because of the experience in her previous life, she didn’t say anything about getting started. She even made two more pots of snowflake cakes for Mrs. Chen to give to the neighbors— —In her past life, there was an accident at her house, and the neighbors helped her a lot. She always remembered it and was grateful.
When her father Yu Wen came home, it was four days later.
Yu Tang had just washed her mother’s hair, and sat in the courtyard to help her mother’s hair.
Madam Chen fanned Mrs. Chen and praised Yu Tang: “Look at the eldest miss, how sensible and filial! You will wait for the blessings of the eldest lady and uncle in the future!”
Chen smirked.
There was a hint of guilt on the thin, pale face.
Yu Tang’s marriage didn’t go well because their family wanted to recruit a son-in-law.
In the previous life, Yu Tang had no idea about her marriage, and everything was up to her parents.
But after experiencing those things in her previous life, she knew that if she could recruit children and stay by her parents’ side, it would be her great luck and blessing.
Seeing her mother’s guilt, she leaned on her mother’s shoulder coquettishly, and said, “I want to find a beautiful one, don’t marry a short file like the sister next door!”
This is the first time Yu Tang has expressed her thoughts on marriage in front of her mother.
Chen Shi couldn’t help being overjoyed and asked her carefully, “Then, are you willing to recruit a son-in-law?”
“Yes!” Yu Tang took the initiative to participate actively, “If I hire a son-in-law at home, I will be able to accompany my mother and father for the rest of my life. I have the final say in everything at home. Why don’t I want to hire a son-in-law? ”
Seeing that she was sincere, Mrs. Chen immediately became happy, pulled Yu Tang in front of her, and said to her earnestly: “Don’t worry, Mom and Dad will help you to take a good look, and we won’t let our family If Tang suffers, he will not wrong our A-Tang.”
Yu Tang nodded heavily.
Mrs. Chen saw the atmosphere was good, and followed suit: “Don’t forget, madam, choose a beautiful one. Our eldest lady likes beautiful ones.”
Anyway, I don’t expect my husband to be very promising. Of course, I have to pick one that is pleasing to the eye.
Yu Tang nodded again: “Mum, remember! You have to grow taller and be obedient.”
Seeing her ignorant and fearless appearance, Chen shi laughed out loud.
Yu Wen, who was dressed in a scholar’s robe, came in amid this laughter: “What are the mother and daughter talking about? So happy! Tell me too!”
“Xiang Gong!” Chen’s eyes lit up.
Yu Wen’s eyes also fell directly on Chen’s body.
“I haven’t seen you for a few days, why have you cleared up again?” He asked Chen Shi with concern and distress, “Did A-Tang make a fuss at home again? Or is it too hot these days, and you can’t eat anything? People go to the street to buy some ice and let Madam Chen cook some mung bean water for you?”
“No, no!” Chen shi said with a smile, looking at Yu Wen up and down, as if he was afraid that he would suffer hardships when he went out, “Dr. Liu from Jimintang didn’t say that I can’t stand the cold because of my illness. Why are you still encouraging Eat ice with me.”
Yu Wen smiled and said, “Don’t I think it’s a moment to let you relax?”
That was her father’s character.
He is a very nice person, sincere, optimistic, generous, kind, humorous… everything is carefree, showing a little bit of indifference, just going with the flow.
When I was young, I only devoted myself to studying. When I grew up, I relied on my elder brother to help me with household chores. Finally, I was admitted as a scholar. I felt that reading was too hard, so I stopped reading.
It’s okay if you don’t encounter something, but if something happens, I’m afraid it will be unbearable.
Yu Tang sighed inwardly and stepped forward to salute his father.
Only then did Yu Wen notice his daughter, and he said with a guilty conscience: “A Tang, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com These days, Dad is not at home, are you naughty? Have you listened to your mother’s words?”
Yu Tang has experienced two lives and likes his father to treat his mother well.
She said angrily, “Where’s the Poria powder you promised me? I’m still waiting to make Poria paste!”
Yu Wen almost went crazy when he heard that the shop at home was burnt down. Where can he remember Poria powder?
He was speechless.
Yu Tang sighed again in his heart.
In order not to worry about the mother, when did the father go out and go home without being glamorous and beautiful?
So they didn’t notice their father’s anxiety.
Over the years, all the proceeds from the shop have been given to her mother to take medicine. Her father knew that Changxing Street was drained, and he didn’t know how to suffer, and it was reasonable to forget the gift he gave her.
In her previous life, she had a big quarrel with her father. Later, her father accompanied her to the mountain outside the mountain to have a good meal, and she just gave up.
In this life, she just wants to get out of trouble for her parents.
“Father’s words don’t count.” Yu Tang joked, pushing his father to the study, “I want the Qingtian jade seed material that Father has hidden.”
Yu Wen felt distressed as if he was cutting flesh. While being pushed and shoved away by his daughter, he bargained with his daughter: “Can I give you the inkstone that drips from the lotus leaf? Or is it the box of wolf’s brushes that you said last time?”
“Humph!” Yu Tang said dissatisfiedly, “I won’t be fooled! I want that Qingtian jade, and I want to carve a seal and hang it around my waist like Dad.”
Yu Wendao: “The man only hangs the seal on his waist. You are a girl, and you have three things. I’ll give you a gold medal for three things, okay?”
The family almost ran out of money to buy medicine for Mu’s mother, and her father was going to give her three things.
Yu Tang snorted coldly.
Chen Shi couldn’t straighten his back with laughter.
The father and daughter shoved into the study.
