Chapter 190 Chu Hanfeng's Plan

Mr. Chu was very unhappy that his question was not answered. He looked at his daughter with sharp eyes.

Chu Hanfeng smiled slightly: "Don't be upset, Dad. I also follow the local customs. The Du family has no servants. How can I, a new bride, call servants?"

The old lady nodded slowly and explained to her son: "The Du family fled here due to famine. Our family is simple and even though we became rich, we never bought slaves. We like to do everything ourselves.

When Feng'er married, her mother-in-law didn't have servants to serve her, so how could she have any? She should keep a low profile, lest people say that the daughter raised by our Chu family doesn't know the rules. "

After hearing this, the Chu family's uncle was stunned for a moment, then he understood: "Mother is right, son understands, but it will be hard for Feng'er, you will have to do housework, respect your parents-in-law, and cook soup by yourself in the future."

"It's okay. My daughter learned some dishes from the chefs in the kitchen a few days ago. Our family runs a restaurant, so three meals a day is no problem. We can definitely handle it."

Chu Hanfeng thought, no one cared about me all those years, and I just went to the kitchen to cook for myself, why am I being so pretentious now?

Speaking of the restaurant, the eldest son of the Chu family couldn't hide his smile on his face: "The General Wine brewed by my son-in-law's farm is really popular! As long as we get the wine today, the restaurant's business is guaranteed to be booming.

Feng'er! You have excellent taste and you choose a good son-in-law. Others can't get him. Our restaurant has one or two jars of him every day.

The same goes for stewed dishes. We guarantee a daily supply and have added more varieties. My son-in-law is really good at business, better than me."

Chu Hanfeng lowered her head and smiled, her face blushing: "The business he studies is unique in the world, so he is naturally better than people like us."

The old lady was also happy: "Feng'er is right. My grandson-in-law is smart. I heard that there are many people on his farm and he works quickly. There are people in charge of brewing wine and making marinades."

"Yes! I've been there twice." The Chu family's uncle had a smug expression on his face. "The people in that village are very special. Some are missing arms or legs, but there are also normal people. The houses are very beautifully built, neatly arranged, and all look exactly the same.

The people inside had clear division of labor and ate together. There was a large cafeteria divided into men's area and women's area. Men and women did not sit together, and there was a wall separating them.

The food is good, too. There is meat and soup at every meal. You can eat as much as you want, and don’t waste it. If you waste it, we will deduct your work points.

Chu Hanfeng had never been to the farm, but after hearing about it, she was very eager to go. After she married Du Wenjun, she would most likely go to work on the farm.

You'll see him then.

After meeting Du Wenjun last time, she met him once more when Du Wenjun came to the house to give a holiday gift. Her grandmother specially asked her to come out and keep him company. With the elders present, they didn't say much.

After all, she hadn't married yet, so she had to be more reserved. I had a meal with him, and then I watched him leave.

The old lady was surprised to hear this and asked her son, "What are work points? Shouldn't they be deducted from your wages?"

Uncle Chu had a vague idea: "Maybe work points are wages! He didn't ask for details. My son had eaten the food in the cafeteria once, it was not bad, and there was plenty of white rice.

Hundreds or even thousands of men and women eating together at the same time was a truly spectacular scene. Eating with those people was very interesting, like a battle. The more you eat, the more you want to eat.”

As she was speaking, the old lady's personal nanny came in and whispered a few words in the old lady's ear. The old lady's face immediately turned gloomy.

"Tell the person who comes, it's impossible."

The nanny nodded and turned to leave. Chu Hanfeng watched from the side and sighed softly, "Grandma! Sister Lan'er has reached the age of marriage, so you should settle her marriage as soon as possible.

If they find out about the Du family and get involved in it again, our Chu family will be really embarrassed.

I don't mind. At most, I will be rejected by my husband's parents-in-law. But my younger brothers still have to get married. Who will look up to such a daughter in the Chu family in the future?"

She knew in her heart that the only person who could make her grandmother unhappy was Chu Hanlan. Now that everyone in the mansion was focusing on her marriage, it was impossible for anything bad to be reported to her grandmother.

She was on guard against Chu Hanlan in every way and would never let her ruin her marriage. The last lesson might not be enough for her and her aunt.

It is very likely that he will continue to cause trouble.

My father and grandmother kept Chu Hanlan just to provide more support to the Chu family. After raising her for so many years, they couldn't just abandon her like that.

"Feng'er is right. Grandmother is also considering it." The old lady looked very unhappy. "It's a pity that your sister Lan'er has been spoiled by us since she was a child. We suggested several marriages for her but she didn't agree. It's really frustrating."

"My sister is ambitious. It may not be easy to get her to agree." Chu Hanfeng said slowly, "I heard that there are some good seniors among my elder brother. If the Chu family can recruit them when they are still potential dragons, they will be grateful for their help in the future when they are successful."

After listening to this, the old lady's brows brightened up. She felt that her eldest granddaughter was really thoughtful. Why didn't she think of it?

"Feng'er! If you were a man, the Chu family would surely prosper."

Uncle Chu looked like he had received a thousand critical hits. He looked at his old mother, then at his daughter, with an unnatural expression on his face.

"Grandma, you are too kind." Chu Hanfeng looked up at the old lady, "I also hope that my family and sisters can have a good place to go. Scholars may be temporarily in trouble and feel frustrated.

If Sister Lan'er marries into such a family, she will definitely be the mistress of the household. In the future, when her husband rises to a high position, Sister Lan'er will also become an official's wife."

"Yes, yes, you are right to remind me. Grandmother forgot about this." The old lady was enlightened by Chu Hanfeng's words and smiled, "Feng'er! It's hard for you to think about Lan'er all the time. You are worthy of being the eldest daughter of my Chu family. You know how to consider the overall situation."

The eldest master of the Chu family also understood, and then a smile appeared on his face: "Yes! Why didn't Dad think of it? The boy from the Wen family is not bad. He is sixteen this year and will take the examination for the scholar next spring. Mom! Why don't you marry Lan'er to the Wen family?"

"Wen family? Which Wen family?" The old lady was not very clear about the scholars outside. "What is the family background? If we are looking for someone, we should look for someone who is extremely poor. We would rather give up some money and make him feel grateful for the kindness of our Chu family."

"The Wen family is not that poor. They have some land and a shop, so they can make ends meet."

Just as the old lady was about to object, Chu Hanfeng spoke to comfort her, "Grandma! Scholars are always proud and arrogant. If they are really poor and can't even afford to eat, and they feel resentful and angry after receiving our kindness, that would be bad.

When he becomes successful in the future, he might even bully his sister even more. For people who just get by, their false arrogance will be restrained. Even if he becomes successful in the future, he won’t feel much resentment, because he didn’t rely on our family to get ahead after all.”
