Chapter 160 Ni Shi lost her job

Ni Shi angrily scolded, "It's all your fault. You've only made a few days' worth of money and you're already getting cocky. I told you not to do that, but you insisted on setting rules for Madam Yu."

Ni Shi's hands were hurt from hitting them, but she still felt it was not enough.

She stretched out her hand and wanted to use the same trick again, but those people were not going to stand there stupidly and be beaten by her.

Ni Shi was alone, but there were three people over there.

They pulled Ni Shi's hair and made it a mess.

"If you hadn't said that Madam Yu was easy to bully, we wouldn't have made things difficult for her."

"That's right, you don't necessarily think of us when good things happen, but you do think of us when something bad happens."

Ni's eyes turned red with anger. Why didn't she think of these people? If it weren't for her, how could these people come here to make money?

Ni's eyes were bloodshot, and she fell to the ground in a wolf-like manner. Her hair was pulled into a mess, but no one sympathized with her. They spit at her and stepped over her.

Ni was thrown on the street like this. She lay on the ground, and the dampness from the ground beneath her made her clothes sticky.

The dark clouds that came from nowhere covered the sun in the sky, and Ni couldn't help but sniff.

Her scalp was torn and it hurt a lot. Her clothes were torn. She straightened her clothes and got up from the ground sobbing.

She returned home with a messy body. Her husband had not come back yet, but her son Rong Ge'er was still at home.

Rong Ge'er was drinking with his friends in the yard. When he saw her, he said loudly,

"Mom, you are back at the right time. My brother is here today. Go buy some vegetables and two bottles of wine."

Because of the famine in other places, the price of vegetables in the capital has been getting higher recently.

If you invite someone to dinner, you will have to spend at least three or five hundred coins.

But her son was very proud. If she refused directly, it would make her son lose face. She could only go to the market to buy a few cheap vegetables and not very fresh meat to fry.

Even so, she was still complained by her son.

"Mom, you are such a fool. Didn't you see I invited my brothers? Why don't you go to the restaurant and buy some ready-made dishes?"

"Your dishes are so bad, how can my brothers eat them?"

"Go, go, go buy some better ones, don't be stingy with the money."

After giving his instructions, Rong Ge'er returned to the table and smiled at his friends, "Women are ignorant, and the brothers will be punished."

Seeing Ni's gloomy face as she went to buy dishes, his brothers felt unhappy and curled their lips, "I understand."

"We brothers are not here to eat and drink for free. We are here to discuss business. It doesn't matter what we eat and drink."

"These women are so petty. They think eating and drinking are like their lives. They don't even think about how much benefit we can bring to them if we get things done."

"Your mother is so stingy. If she comes to my house, I guarantee that my mother won't dare to say a word and will go out to the restaurant to buy food for us without being told."

Rong Ge'er heard his brothers say this and smiled awkwardly.

The food in the restaurant is relatively expensive. Ni Shi spent two taels of silver to buy six dishes.

Her face was full of pain, but when she thought that eating these dishes would save her son's face and make him happier, she didn't feel so bad.

Unexpectedly, her son took the dishes without even looking at her.

She felt bad and went back to the bedroom to lie down. In order to save some gas money, she didn't even turn on the light. She was very hungry

and wanted to get up and cook something for herself, but when she thought about having no income in the future, she lay down again.

Eating less can save some money.

After a while, she heard her husband come back.

Her son invited her husband to sit in the yard and eat, chatting and laughing.

Everyone was eating and drinking, and she was the only one lying on the bed.

Her stomach was rumbling, and her heart was very uncomfortable.

If it were before, she could still sew cloth bags to relieve her boredom, but now she can only lie here and listen to the noise outside.

Thinking of losing her job at Huiyan Pavilion, she felt very depressed.

She turned over several times, and the more she thought about it, the more regretful she felt.

She felt that she should not have a conflict with Hui Niang and lost such a good job for nothing.

When she woke up the next day, her son rushed over.

"Mom, give me fifty taels of silver."

"Fifty taels?"

Ni was shocked: "What do you want so much silver for?"

"I discussed with my friends yesterday that we want to open a shop together. We will split the profits 20% to 80% and I will keep 80%."

"What shop? The world is so chaotic now and people outside are starving. You will definitely lose money if you open a shop at this time."

Although Ni was not good at doing business, she also felt that this matter was unreliable.

"You are quite messy. Don't open a shop. Just use this money to marry a wife."

"A few days ago, your aunt introduced a girl to me. The girl is pretty and easy to give birth to. Her family only wants ten taels of silver."

Rong Ge'er got impatient after hearing a few words: "Okay, okay, I haven't had enough fun yet. What kind of wife do you want to marry? Besides, with your and my aunt's taste, what kind of good girl can you like?"

If he believed his mother, he would definitely marry a sow.

He has secretly looked at several of the girls his mother said were pretty, and each one was uglier than the other.

These people have one thing in common, that is, they are fat.

"I can tell you, my brother used to be the shopkeeper at Xingyuefang. There are so many people who want to open a shop with him. If you miss this opportunity, there will be no such shop anymore."

Ni wanted to say something, but Rong Ge'er refused to listen.

"Alright, alright, you won't understand even if I tell you. Hurry up and take the money."

Ni moved her lips and said, "I don't have that much."

"I can only give you 20 taels. I really don't have more."

Although she made a lot of money these days, her son also spent a lot. She still spent a lot of effort to save these 20 taels.

According to her plan, 10 taels of silver would be used for her son to marry a wife, and the remaining 10 taels would be used for his food and clothing for a period of time in the future, which was completely enough.

Hearing that there were only 20 taels, Rong Ge'er scratched his head and said, "Why is there only 20 taels?"

"Forget it, if there are 20 taels, just take out 20 taels first. At most, I will give you less."

Ni stood there, reluctant to take out the silver. Seeing this, Rong Ge'er pushed her hard.

"Why are you standing there? Take the money."

"If you don't take the money, I will call my father."

Ni knew that her husband was there yesterday, so he must have agreed to this.

If she didn't take the money, she would have rejected her husband and son's face and would inevitably be beaten, so she had to take the money slowly.

Seeing her take the money, Rong Geer rolled his eyes and said, "You just won't listen to me, you bastard."

As soon as Ni took out the money, Rong Geer snatched it away.

Ni grabbed Rong Geer's sleeve and whispered, "Son, this is all our family's property, you must keep it well."
