Mrs. Zhang was uneducated and had to work very hard to remember all these flowery words.
Xianjin was still a little dazed.
She always thought... Chen Fu was just an unreliable rebellious and childish love-brained... His skills were all focused on "how to quickly and absurdly make his mother angry to death"...
Xianjin clenched his purse tightly, then slowly loosened his hands.
Mrs. Zhang hesitated for a long time, then gritted her teeth and dumped out all the rumors she had heard today, "... Third Madam treated you so badly, just to make you suffer the pain of mourning. She found a marriage for you, with the accountant of the mulberry workshop in the east of the city. The woman who died the month before last, and she holds the accounts of the mulberry workshop. She has always wanted that workshop, and she wants to use you to win over the accountant..."

"I'm still in mourning..." Xianjin hesitated, "Does it mean I can't get married for three years?"
Mrs. Zhang exclaimed, "You silly girl! Waiting for three years is something that only officials and scholars do! Go to the countryside and see who dares to wait for three years?! If you don't get married or have a baby within three years, who will work at home and who will go to the fields?!"

If you are not allowed to get married for three years, you may not have children for four or five years. This is a big deal.

Mrs. Zhang slapped her thigh and said, "If the income of the Jingxian workshop can surpass that of the mulberry leather workshop in the east of the city, then let the Third Master come back!"
Oh, it’s time to compete on KPI.
"How much profit does the mulberry workshop make?"
"This..." This is confidential, and Mrs. Zhang doesn't know, but women's focus is always different. "It should be good! The wife of Manager Jiang of the mulberry workshop never blinks when she goes shopping!"
"How much profit does the Jingxian workshop make?"
"The wife of Manager Zhao from the Jingxian workshop is still wearing patched clothes from three years ago!"
He Xianjin: ...
It’s over. This love-brain may never come back.
