At this point, Madam Qian trembled with anger.
"Later, Wanliang realized...they even wanted to send over a clever person to exchange Wanliang for him!"
"This is because we're worried that if Wanliang becomes mentally unstable, we'll have to hand over our family business to someone else! We're sending someone as a replacement!"
“I hadn’t thought about that at the time. I just felt that I had raised Wanliang myself, so even if things went wrong, I would accept it. Who knew that in those two years, Wanliang would have several accidents: falling into the water, being startled in the carriage, and being poisoned…”
They're trying to kill someone so they can get another one instead of taking them away!
Shen Qingyu's bottom line has been refreshed: she wouldn't even spare her own son for money?
"Is their family living a very hard life?"
People only lose their moral compass when they can't survive, right?
Madam Qian wiped away her tears: "If that were really the case, I wouldn't be so heartbroken. Ever since Wanliang came to our family, they've said they'd come to see me every year, and they've never been short a hundred or so taels of silver..."
Shen Qingyu gasped!
A hundred or so taels of silver?!
In the countryside, a family might not even have a hundred taels of silver in ten years!
This family is truly wicked.
"Little Bao, I want to ride a donkey!" The chubby young master's cheerful voice rang out, carefree and without a worry in the world.
Shen Qingyu looked out the window: "So, what are your plans now?"
Madam Qian sighed, "Wan Liang is a kind-hearted child, so I don't blame him, but this family business definitely cannot be given to him."
Before I found Yuqiao, I had no other thoughts.
Seeing that Yu Qiao was clever and quick-witted, and had the makings of a businessman, Mr. Qian began to have designs on her.
Privately, Mr. Qian discussed with his wife: "We almost lost our daughter because we brought a wolf into the house in order to have a son. We can't do this again."
If Yuqiao has this ability, they plan to hand over the Qian family's business to Yuqiao in the future.
“My husband says you are capable and of good character. We want Yuqiao to follow you. If she can stand on her own in the future, she will have a way to make a living in the world if we are gone,” Madam Qian said, expressing her hopes.
Of course, Mr. Qian didn't tell anyone that it would be even better if he could use Xiao Yunqi's abilities to take the Qian family's business to the next level.
This is why Master Qian brought his wife and children to support Shen Qingyu's new house ceremony today.
Shen Qingyu nodded: She also liked Yu Qiao very much.
After nagging for a while, Madam Qian left with Master Qian and Qi Han.
The carriage left the village in a grand procession, and several familiar and bolder women asked Shen Qingyu, "Qingyu, what about those ten or so brocade boxes? They don't look like ordinary goods. What are they?"
"Maybe it's all gold!"
You mustn't spread this around, or you'll be constantly robbed in your house.
Shen Qingyu simply called the village head's wife, Liu Cuixi, Xiao Taohua, her second aunt, and her fifth aunt to her room: "I don't know either, shall we go and take a look together?"
Upon entering the room, the brocade boxes were opened one by one, and everyone's eyes showed both envy and disappointment: it turned out that they were not gold, but exquisite pastries in bowls, plates, tea sets, and lacquerware fruit boxes.
It looks very pretty, but it would be a pity to break something so pretty. Who would be willing to use it?
They're not as practical as white porcelain bowls or gourd ladles.
Everyone felt a pang of regret.
Shen Qingyu, however, heard the notification that the Space Mall was adding new product categories.
Ru porcelain rice bowl category +1; three taels of silver each;
Ru porcelain soup bowl category +1; thirty taels of silver each;
...
This set includes ten small bowls, two large bowls, two soup bowls, six plates, ten chopstick rests, a spoon, and more...
The whole set turned out to be worth several hundred taels of silver!
There was also a complete tea set...
Shen Qingyu sighed deliberately, "It's so precious, how could I bear to use it..."
Everyone nodded in agreement: "It would be better to send more white porcelain bowls! We wouldn't be so heartbroken if those broke."
After seeing off the group of people who had offered their help and expressed their regret, Shen Qingyu sat in her room in a daze.
The upgraded online store now sells 21st-century goods.
Among the new product categories in the Space Mall is the option of "Jingdezhen Bone China Set, 800 wen".
There are also items like toothpaste, toothbrushes, underwear, and sanitary napkins, all priced at several tens of coins each.
Although the space warehouse had stock of these items before, the quantity was not large, and each one used was one less available. Now that they could be replenished, Shen Qingyu's mind started to wander.
If these things were taken out and sold, making money would be almost the same as robbing people.
but……
Shen Qingyu sighed: Compared to money, life is more important.
This kind of technological product is clearly out of date; I'll keep it for myself and use it secretly.
Otherwise, it would be too frustrating to be burned to death as a monster.
Composing herself, Shen Qingyu went downstairs.
The men and women who helped have already returned all the tables, chairs, and benches to each household and are now washing dishes and cleaning.
Shen Qingyu went to inspect the backyard without feeling any remorse.
The backyard, nestled against the mountain, used to house a black horse, a skinny donkey, chickens, rabbits...
With the arrival of summer, various excrement mixed with mud is both unsightly and smelly.
Now everything has been cleaned up, and the men have built a row of thatched huts to house chickens, ducks, livestock, and rabbits.
On the other side, a huge new kitchen was built.
The new stove has five burners, from largest to smallest, and five pots on it.
From stir-frying and cooking, to boiling pig swill, making braised dishes, and steaming glutinous rice...
They lined up in a fan shape, so imposing!
The courtyard was paved with blue bricks, so people didn't have to worry about getting muddy when walking around or washing offal and meat.
