Chapter 375 Adding makeup

Wen Zhenyi did not refuse this time. The Ma family was living a good life now and would not need her help in the future.

Geng Ru felt relieved when she saw that she took the money without saying a word. Otherwise, she would always feel that she owed her something.

Wen Zhenyi was going to visit Song Huanhuan, as she was getting married in a few days and was heading to the Wang family in the provincial capital.

When I came out of the Ma family, there were already quite a few people on the street, many of whom were visiting relatives and friends.

A man walked past her, put a note in her hand, and left in a hurry.

Wen Zhenyi was not unfamiliar with this operation at all. He opened the note in his hand, which had only two lines of words written on it: Arrived safely in Beijing, arrived safely in Yuncang.

The corners of her mouth curled up and she secretly glanced at the people on the street. As long as everyone was safe, I'm glad.

Song Huanhuan is now filled with happiness. She has no fear of the unknown, but instead has a yearning for a happy life in the future.

"This shows how eager I am to get married."

Song Huanhuan saw the person walking in from the door: "Yi Yi, you just know how to tease me."

"I'm not kidding you. If you don't believe me, ask your maid to see if she has a happy smile on her face."

The maid saw her mistress looking at her and nodded quickly.

Song Huanhuan glanced at her: "Even you are the same as her."

A smile appeared on the maid's face. She had followed Song Huanhuan since she was a child, and seeing her happy was the happiest thing for her.

"Go down, I want to talk to Miss Wen."

The maid bowed to the two of them and left.

Wen Zhenyi handed her the dowry he had prepared, which was also one thousand taels of silver.

Song Huanhuan looked at the things in the box and asked, "Are you adding makeup to me?"

"I know your family is rich, but I'm also quite vulgar. It's better to give you money than to give you a lot of things. You can buy what you need. It will be convenient when you need it, and you don't have to sell it."

"You treat everyone equally. Before, I asked Yingying what you gave her, but she was mysterious and wouldn't tell me. Caidie even told me, and I'll know when the time comes. Now I finally understand."

Wen Zhenyi smiled and said, "Don't look at these things because they seem vulgar. They are actually very practical."

"You are absolutely right."

"Brother Song and his men should have bought you a dowry shop and fertile land. You can keep this for self-defense."

"Are you afraid that the Wang family will treat me badly?"

"That's not the case. You've just arrived and you have to make some connections."

Song Huanhuan held her hand: "Yi Yi, you always think about us."

"Aren't we friends?"

"right."

"So I hope you guys are doing well." Wen Zhenyi changed the subject: "Will you still make ceramics after you get married?"

"Do it. This is something my future parents-in-law agreed to."

"Good."

Song Huanhuan looked up at her and said, "I will definitely come back when you get married."

"There are still two years left."

"No matter how long."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

Wen Zhenyi chatted with her for a while, then got up and left the Song Mansion.

Wen Yongman saw that she was in a bad mood: "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay. There's news about my brother and the others."

"real?"

The Ma family and Wen Chengwen all looked at her: "What news?"

"They have arrived safely in the capital."

"Is the information reliable?"

"Don't worry, the news is reliable."

"That's good, that's good, may Buddha bless you." Old Mrs. Ma clasped her hands together and said to the sky.

Ma Yinghe's worry finally subsided: "Yiyi, is there any news about Axiang?"

"She's safe too."

Ma Yinghe finally felt relieved: "That's good, that's good, everything is safe."

After staying at the Ma family for another day, they set off back to Xinglin Village.

There are still Mr. Cheng and his son in the village. We can't just leave them there and ignore them.

It is still the New Year holiday and there are not many people on the streets.

Mr. Cheng felt quite comfortable living in the village. Every day he would follow the village teacher and Old Man Wen and others, either playing chess, going fishing, or having a few drinks.

They even went to the foot of the mountain to look for wild vegetables. They were very busy and had a lot of fun.

Cheng Lesheng would occasionally leave for a while to deal with family business matters, and then hurried back after finishing them.

When Wen Zhenyi saw him, he told him the news that Axiang had arrived safely.

Cheng Lesheng smiled: "As long as you're safe."

"You seem very tired lately."

"It's your fault for not wanting to receive these people. You insisted on saying I was the general agent and told them to contact me directly. Now, people who contact me every day are almost driving me crazy."

"I have to develop new things. What can I do if you can't do more?"

Cheng Lesheng rolled his eyes at her: "What are you doing?"

"Joining the store, are you interested?"

"Join us? Tell me about it."

Wen Zhenyi told him about joining the franchise.

Cheng Lesheng's eyes lit up: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"This requires someone to learn the skills, and my name will also be on the signboard. Are you willing?"

"Why not? It's a good opportunity for Qian Tu to learn from you. I was planning to open a restaurant in the state capital, and now it's all done."

"Okay, after the New Year, you can ask Qian Tu to come and learn. I'm going to compile recipes for various stores soon. See if anyone wants to join then."

Cheng Lesheng looked at her with amusement: "If you succeed in this, the annual income will be at least one to eight hundred thousand."

"Isn't it good to count money while lying down?"

"But why do you need so much money?"

Wen Zhenyi didn't answer but asked, "Then what does Master Cheng need so much money for?"

"I have quite a few guys to support."

"By the same token, I also hope to give the people a bite to eat, don't I?"

"Okay, I can't argue with you."

Wen Zhenyi thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps some notices about taxes will appear soon."

"What news did you receive?" Cheng Lesheng looked at her in confusion.

"No, it's just my guess."

"Increase taxes?"

“It’s not an agricultural tax.”

"What is that?"

"Commercial tax."

Cheng Lesheng frowned: "Are you talking about businessmen?"

"To be more precise, it's a tax on store business."

"How do I verify the taxes for this shop?"

"I don't know about that, so we'll have to wait and see. But I'm reminding you now to reorganize all your accounts when you have time."

Cheng Lesheng was a little skeptical, but he also knew that Wen Zhenyi was not the kind of person who spoke nonsense. Since she said so, she must have a source of information.

I just don’t know when this matter will be implemented, but the issue of sorting out the accounts of various stores that she mentioned can be put on the agenda.

"The children in your private schools are all taught this accounting method, right?"

“It should be. I haven’t even been to the private school. You can ask Grandpa Shen and the others.”
