Chapter 1253: Unable to recognize one's own identity

What he needs to consider more now is silk.

It certainly hurts, but without the silk weaving workshop we can't start production!

Mrs. Shao just bought her own mulberry field. Mr. Shao seems to have a good relationship with this unfilial son. If this unfilial son comes forward and speaks a few good words to Mr. and Mrs. Shao, maybe they can buy silk at a lower price.

Qin didn't know what Zhao Mu was thinking, but when she saw that Zhao Mu didn't teach Zhao Shu a lesson or punish Zhao Shu severely, how could she be willing to accept it?

"Master, even if the 100,000 mulberry fields are sold, where is the silver?"

Zhao Mu's eyes lit up and he looked at Zhao Shu.

Yes, silver!

After deducting all costs, one hundred thousand mu of mulberry fields can earn at least seven hundred thousand taels of silver every year. If all the mulberry fields are sold at once, it should be worth at least two million taels, right?

With this money, I won’t have to worry about buying silk in the next three or four years.

In fact, although the Zhao family's weaving workshop was large, it was not so large that it required 100,000 acres of mulberry fields to supply silk.

Every year, Zhao Mu resold a lot of silk from the mulberry fields he took from Zheng’s mulberry garden.

Zheng knew about this, and so did Zhao Shu. What could they do?

As a wife, Zheng's son was still young at that time, and her parents were gone. In the past, her parents had no son, and many members of the Zheng family had been eyeing her and trying to adopt her. Fortunately, the Zheng family was not very prosperous in Yangzhou, and Zheng's parents were rich and could suppress them, so they did not succeed.

However, the relationship between the Zheng family and the clan became very strained.

It was absolutely impossible for Zheng to rely on her clan to fight against her husband.

She could only turn a blind eye and let her husband take away all the profits from the mulberry garden, just to protect her young son and herself.

As long as the deed to the mulberry garden is still firmly in my hands, there is still a long way to go.

Now that Zhao Shu has sold the mulberry garden, Zhao Mu certainly doesn't get any benefit at all!

"Third brother, where is the money from selling the mulberry garden?"

Hearing him no longer calling him "unfilial son", Zhao Shu found it ridiculous. However, the change in his father's attitude also illustrated a fact, that is, he was now somewhat wary of him and did not yell at him casually like before.

He didn't care even when his father was not afraid of him. But when he was afraid of him, he would naturally be even less polite.

Zhao Shu did not answer him immediately, but looked at Qin: "It seems that Aunt Qin can't learn to shut up and can't learn to know her own status. She dares to say and ask anything without knowing it. Does Zheng's mulberry garden have anything to do with you? Is the silver yours? Are you worthy of thinking about the silver from Zheng's mulberry garden? How shameless!"

Zhao Ye blushed and said, "Don't go too far!"

"Aren't it Aunt Qin and you who are the ones who are overdoing it?" Zhao Shu said coldly, "Are you threatening me or warning me? Are you worthy? It seems that you and your son are the same, both of you don't know your own identities!"

"you!"

"What about me? Why don't we go out and tell everyone about it so they can judge for themselves?"

“.”

Qin and Zhao Ye were so angry that they were about to have a heart attack.

Zhao Shu felt both happy and sad.

What was bitter was how badly Qin's mother and son had hurt his mother! How sad his mother was! Facing a woman like Qin who always cried and pretended to be weak, her mother could not do anything for her for him and let her do whatever she wanted. How angry, aggrieved, and forbearing she must have been.
