The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 32

[Chapter 32]

After subduing Hongshan, Oak-hee was in a good mood.

Yuxi said a few more words: “Your cousin is suffering, but the most important thing is that she is timid, so she is trampled under her feet.” There must be two brushes for a personal maid who can be the old lady, so I rule out With the possibility of being weak, the only thing left is that she is afraid of being abandoned, and she will give in again and again if she has scruples in her heart. It’s a pity that others will not be grateful for your concessions. On the contrary, these people will only gain an inch. This was the lesson she had learned in her past life.

Hongshan was a little horrified. From the beginning to the end, she didn’t say what kind of person her cousin was: “How does the girl know that my cousin is timid?”

Yu Xi chuckled lightly: “Your father is a respectable person in the government’s government, so he’s still afraid of a Juren? Your cousin swallowed her anger, she must have some scruples.”

Hongshan smiled bitterly: “What the girl said is that my cousin was afraid that she would suffer from the divorce of the child, so she made a compromise. Now she has agreed to her cousin’s husband to take a concubine.”

Yuxi said: “Your cousin’s concession will only make your cousin-in-law’s family worse, and her hard days are still to come.”

Hongshan was stunned, looked up at Yuxi and said, “Girl, I used to have my cousin’s photoshoot a lot, and I want to help her.”

Yuxi felt that Hongshan could repay her kindness, and her temperament was good: “Tell your cousin, rushing is afraid of being stunned, stunned is afraid of horizontal, and horizontal is afraid of dying. There are so many people in the world, so many people. There are not many of your cousin-in-law, and there is not much less of him. As long as your cousin dares to go out, it will not be your cousin, but your cousin-in-law’s family.” Don’t say that it is a person, even if it is an official. A jinshi, if he has no foundation, he can be torn down at any time.

Hongshan was shocked when she heard this, and gave Yuxi a kowtow: “Thank you girl for the guidance.”

Yuxi smiled and said, “Don’t be too busy to kowtow to me. If your cousin doesn’t dare, what I said will be in vain.” In fact, as long as you can stand up, you are not afraid of anything.

Thinking of what happened in her previous life, Oak-hee was in a bad mood, and it was because she was too weak that she would be an airbag in her previous life. Like now, who would dare to look at her face from the servants of the government?

On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, Mr. Xiang announced a holiday, and the holiday extended after the Lantern Festival, which means that there are more than 20 days of holiday.

Oak-hee didn’t slack off because he was on vacation, and he still wrote the big characters honestly that night, and then took out the chess sheet to ponder.

Shen’s mother couldn’t help but said, “Girl, didn’t Mr. Song say that your painting skills are good? Why don’t you draw a lot, girl?” Diligence makes perfect, but if you don’t write all the time, you won’t be able to learn well.

Yuxi said simply and clearly: “I’m not interested.” No matter how well you paint, you can’t become a famous artist. In fact, even if Yuchen’s paintings are sold for thousands of gold later, it is because of her identity, not because of her paintings. worth the money.

Yuxi knew how much she had. She had good qualifications, but she was only taller than the average person, far from Yuchen. And a person’s energy is limited, if you want to learn everything, you can’t learn anything. So now, in addition to learning in class, Oak Xi spends her spare time on chess and embroidery, and her painting skills are only incidental. Learning chess is to better exercise one’s ability in all aspects; embroidery is because she has a deep foundation in this thing, as long as she spends a little time doing it, she can do it well, saving time and trouble.

Mama Shen did not flinch at Yu Xi’s words, but instead said, “Girl, you still need to learn painting well. In the future, girls will be able to do well when they go out to socialize.” In fact, Mama Shen felt that it would be best to learn a musical instrument. , it sounds good to say so. It’s just that no matter how she persuaded, Oak-hee was unwilling to learn.

Oak-hee didn’t want to listen to Mother Shin’s nagging anymore, and she wondered why it was right to do what they wanted. No, to be precise, it is right to follow the path set by the old lady. One Yuchen is enough, why bother with her: “As you can see, I’m very busy every day, and I don’t have time to paint.”

Mother Shin glanced at Oak Hee and saw that there was no displeasure on her face, and said, “As long as the girl doesn’t spend all her time on chess, she will have time to paint.”

Yuxi’s face was pulled down, “I know what to learn and what not to learn. I don’t need you to teach me.” To give her a third face, she even opened a dye shop.

Mother Shin’s face flushed with choking at Oak-hee’s ruthless words.

On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, Fang’s mother entered the house.

Fang’s mother is now wearing a new pine-colored long coat, with a round bun, a long red gold hairpin on her head, and gold earrings on her ears, looking like a rich old lady.

When Oak-hee saw Fang’s mother, she smiled and said, “These days, I’ve worked hard for my mother.”

Fang’s mother touched the long hairpin on her bun, and said with a smile, “It’s also a drag on the girl’s luck.” The people in the Guogong’s mansion are all watching people serve dishes. If she came in in plain clothes, everyone would definitely see it. not on. Now that she deliberately returns to the house wearing such a rich and noble dress, it can also make everyone believe that her bun shop is making money.

Oak-hee waved everyone away, leaving only Mama Fang in the room, and said, “Mom, have you brought all the things I asked you to bring?” Oak-hee had made a list for Mama Fang and asked her to bring it with her. Buy what’s on your list.

Mother Fang pointed to the package she brought, and said, “Girl, I brought it all! Girl, what are you buying these things for?” The girl’s list was also strange. Among them, musk and centipede have to be powder.

Oak-hee’s mother didn’t hide her words, and said, “I accidentally saw a recipe for scar removal in an ancient book and wanted to try it. If it is really made, then I will use that recipe. Sell it, so that we can have a lot of money, and mother doesn’t need to work so hard.”

Fang’s mother felt that Yuxi was a little playful: “Girl, it cost me more than 40 taels to buy these medicinal materials. Can this jade paste be sold back to my own horse?”

Yuxi smiled and said, “How do you know if you don’t try it? If you really make the ointment, then we will make a profit.” I won’t talk about the kind of jade ointment in the palace, just a box of the best scar removal ointment on the market. It takes several taels of silver. She really made this ointment, and it will definitely sell for a good price.

The things that Fang’s mother bought were not complete, and if she made an ointment, she also lacked one medicinal material, pearl powder. However, pearl powder was too expensive to buy outside, so Yuxi wanted to get it in the house.

Mother Fang felt a little distressed, and said, “I’m afraid of losing money.” The main reason was that Mother Fang didn’t believe that Oak-hee could concoct any ointment to remove scars. She felt that Oak-hee was wasting money.

Yu Xi smiled and said, “If you can make it, it will be a huge profit. If you can’t make it, you will only lose a few dozen taels of silver. I can still afford to lose this silver.” I don’t have much ambition, so I just want to buy one or two storefronts and buy another one or two hundred acres of fertile land, so that I can make sure that I don’t have to worry about money.

Fang’s mother knew that Yuxi’s idea was big, but she couldn’t stop it, and said at the moment, “Girl, now the steamed buns’ business is getting better and better, and they will make more and more money. Last month, they made more than 40 taels of silver!”

Yuxi nodded and said, “Mom, the recipe for this stuffing is not known. Otherwise, someone will be in the ring.”

Fang’s mother smiled and said, “The girl is too careless, but it’s just a matter of stuffing, so it’s worth coveting.”

Yuxi couldn’t help but smile when she saw Fang’s mother with disapproval. Fortunately, it bears the name of the state government, and the steward Xiang is out there to take care of it. The body deed is in the hand.” With the body deed, it means that you have the power to kill yourself, and you don’t have to worry about betrayal.

After listening to Yuxi’s words, Mother Fang said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, “Girl, if I want to take an apprentice, I will teach her to make buns?”

After hearing this, Oak-hee immediately asked, “Mom has a candidate?” If no one was chosen, Fang’s mother wouldn’t tell her directly.

Fang’s mother nodded and said, “Well, the child’s name is Xiaowei. She is twelve years old and lives on Shangyuan Street. It’s not far from my shop. Xiaowei is a well-behaved and filial child. Quick. If I teach her, I believe I will be able to graduate in three months.”

Oak-hee asked, “How did Mama Fang meet them?”

A smile appeared on Fang’s mother’s face: “Xiaowei’s mother often comes to buy buns, and she has known each other as soon as they come and go.”

Oak-hee heard that he knew him from buying steamed buns, so he stopped asking other questions, and asked the most important question: “Has the other party agreed to sign the contract?” There are good people in this world, but there are more bad-hearted people.

Fang’s mother shook her head and said, “Girl, Xiaowei has already made a promise to someone, so how could she sign a contract of sale! But both parties agreed that as long as I accept Xiaowei, even if she gets married in two years, she can continue to work in the steamed bun, as long as each The monthly salary is enough.”

Yuxi looked at the smile on Fang’s mother’s face and sighed slightly. Nine times out of 10, this family came up with the idea of the bun stuffing recipe after watching the bun shop make money. It wasn’t that Yuxi looked down on Fang’s mother. Mo Ju and Mo Tao, who were trained only by Fang’s mother, knew that Fang’s mother was not a conscientious person. Even if she was tricked, she would not know: “I can’t teach.” This would be direct Saying that you can’t teach is not saying that you can’t teach without signing a contract of prostitution.

The smile on Fang’s mother’s face suddenly froze: “Girl, why can’t you teach? That child is really good, filial and sensible.”

Yuxi was keenly aware that there was still something going on here: “Mom, do you still have something to say?”

Fang’s mother said unnaturally: “Xiaowei is a very lovable child, and I have promised to recognize her as my goddaughter.”
