Over the years, she treated those things as her own, managing them carefully and using them at will.
It turns out that it wasn't! To be chased after by someone... this is so embarrassing!
Her eyes became hot and tears flowed out.
Wen Qian understood, so he carefully wiped her tears and coaxed her softly: "Okay, don't cry. Originally, it doesn't have to be done this way! But, her uncle is back, and this aspect must be involved. In the next two days, my father will be back... I have to go to Beijing again.
There are many factors that restrict me from doing too much... I have some money in my hand, I will give it to you! When you go to the capital, you can buy some as you wish. It will be in your name, and you can use it legitimately in the future."
Justified...
It turns out that what I took before was not legitimate.
Yuan was even more sad.
"Husband, you know the cause of the incident. At the beginning, I didn't want to take this piece..."
"I know, I asked you to hold it." Wen Qian was very gentle.
"How much effort did it take me to take it, sort it out, and put it in order?" Yuan was crying and sneezing. In the past, she would have disdained to say this. But now...
"I understand, Jun. I see how busy and hard you are."
"It's nothing... As a wife, it's my duty to share your worries." Yuan was really excited, her voice was weak, "The money I earned was used for socializing during your tenure. Also, I used it to socialize with the wives and girls of your colleagues... You doted on our Huanhuan too much. Her clothes, her belongings, hiring masters, buying pianos... all these, the money was gone like water. Now let me hand it over..."
Just thinking about it makes me panic and distressed. "The property is fine, but where can I pay the money?"
Wen Qian patted her on the shoulder and consoled her: "I understand. Please sort it out for me first, so that I can have a better idea of how to talk to her."
Yuan was stunned for a long time, but her husband didn't change his mind. Knowing that the situation was hopeless, she could only nod and agree.
Some things are fine if you never have them. But when you get used to them and then lose them, what a feeling...
All the plans and grand plans she had made after going to the capital were in vain? Yuan lowered her eyes, hiding her hatred.
This damn girl, I thought I could get rid of her completely, but I didn’t expect that she was waiting for me here!
Why didn't you let her go with that bitch Chen Tongyun at the beginning?
…
Wen Yu listed the steps to harvest the property and all the details.
She tapped the table with her fingers, thinking: The biggest problem at the moment is that she has no manpower. These are not just gold, silver and jewelry, so she can just take them back and put them in a locked box.
Not to mention running those farmlands and shops. Even if they were rented out, a grown-up girl couldn't come to collect rent? !
Although I learned how to run a business from Song Shang in my previous life.
But Song Shang has several teams. He is only responsible for making decisions, and there are others to do everything! When my eldest brother gets married, I will be able to see him... Can I ask him to do me a favor first?
Turning around, I glanced at the red coral hairpin box in the corner...
Alas, he sighed: In the last life, I didn’t know why he liked me.
This set of red coral jewelry had been with her in her previous life. Every time she wore it, it would stun people around her. It was expensive, and most importantly, it was extremely rare. This time he sent it to her again, and he had the same idea in mind...
But I suffered enough in my last life, and I won’t bother with him again in this one.
But things need his help...How can I achieve my goal?
"Zhuzhu, we are short of people!"
"Zhuzhu will help you!" Yanzhu, who had changed her name, was busy with work. She didn't like to use her brain, but she was skillful.
"How can you handle it? You need so many people! People who manage the land, run the shops, collect rent, and manage the warehouse. Even if they don't withdraw the people they used, they can't be trusted.
Yan Zhu's eyes rolled around.
"So many people are needed! Girl, Zhuzhu, please recommend one first, Xiaoji's family."
"Xiao Ji?" A short and fat man appeared in front of Wen Yu.
"Yes, Xiaoji has a father and a mother, two brothers, a sister, and a younger brother, and they are all very capable. Moreover, her brothers are all good-looking! Her sister is also okay, but Xiaoji is ugly. Hehehe..." Yan Zhu laughed for no reason.
Wen Yu also laughed. Zhuzhu is very good at judging people by their appearance.
"I heard that Xiaoji's mother was favored by the son of the housekeeper because of her good looks. But she didn't want to marry him and liked Xiaoji's father. Later, the son of the housekeeper took over his father's business and he must have exploited Xiaoji's family.
Xiaoji's two elder brothers were tall, white-toothed, and clean. They could read and do things, but they were not well-received. They were made to do whatever was hard for them.
Originally, Xiaoji's family had saved some money, thinking that they could redeem themselves if things didn't work out, but... I don't know if someone is playing tricks on me, but every time I save money, I lose some. I can't get out! Xiaoji, although she looks ugly, is quite clever. There is no one in this family that she doesn't know well. What she wants most is to be a big maid in front of the girls. But no one wants her with her appearance! Tsk tsk. "
Yan Zhu was beaming with joy as she spoke.
"Girl, how come she looks so short and fat, with short calves! But when she walks, she's very fast, rolling like a ball, hahahaha."
Wen Yu also laughed, "Do you make fun of her like this in front of her?"
"Yes!" Zhuzhu said as a matter of course. "But she wasn't angry. Actually... I was pretty good to her. I gave her a lot of food. I also gave her a silver hairpin. I thought the cotton cloth you gave me last time was too ugly, so I gave it all to her. She was happy and said she would take it home to make clothes for her brother!"
"Hmm..." Wen Yu thought.
"According to Zhuzhu, their family is oppressed and has no future. Why don't you bring them all over? I heard that her father can write and do accounting. How great!"
"Okay! Listen to our Zhuzhu!"
"Hey, girl, don't pamper Zhuzhu like that, or she will become complacent!" She raised her head with a dark face and said proudly.
As they were talking, Hong Xing came back from outside. No one from the eldest wife's side came to see her today.
She was so anxious that her face turned pale.
As soon as she came in, Chunhui, the eldest maid in the Third Miss Wen Jiao's room, came over and asked, "Is the eldest lady in the room?"
Hong Xing quickly said, "Sister Chunhui, our girl is in the room!"
Chunhui came in, saw Wenyu, and bowed gracefully.
Wen Yu looked at the things on the table and asked casually, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Big girl, our girl said she wants to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake! Please make some in the next two days when you have time."
“No time!”
Chunhui didn't realize what Wenyu was saying, but said to herself: "The girl said that she put chestnut flour in it last time...ah? What did you say? No time?" Only then did she react.
"Well, I don't feel like eating recently, so I won't do it."
"But..." Chunhui was actually unhappy, "But our girl wants to eat."
"If your girl wants to eat, you go and make it!" Yan Zhu rushed over, "Whatever our girl wants to eat, I will make it right away!"
She looked down on Chunhui with contempt.
Chunhui had never been through this before! She looked at the master and servant curiously, and rolled her eyes to the sky, "Okay! Then I will go back with our young lady!" She saluted and turned away.
