Zhang Xinyue's family runs a clinic, and she happened to be a nurse in the hospital before, so she knows some simple medical knowledge.
She said shamelessly, "I know medical skills. As long as it's not a difficult or complicated disease, I can solve it!"
Liu Wanyun was laughing secretly on the side, not afraid of biting her tongue at all. With her mediocre nursing knowledge, she dared to claim that she had medical skills.
This medical skill is a good skill, Mrs. Shen didn't say anything.
It’s just that these three people don’t know anything about the skills that women should have!
Alas! It is also true that as a poor family, we don’t have the time and money to let our children learn these things.
When learning something, we must first consider its practicality.
Forget it, the reason why I like the three of them is not because of these.
The three of them have good fortunes and can bring wealth to their men and families, and that's enough.
Other things can be learned slowly!
Madam Shen glanced at the three of them, with a condescending attitude, "I won't pursue the matters before you entered the mansion. Now that you are members of the Shen family, you must consider the Shen family when doing things. You three were born in humble circumstances, and it is your blessing to be able to enter the Shen family and become the principal wife!"
"A wife should behave like a wife. First of all, she must learn the rules. Morning and evening visits are essential. Every day, apart from serving the husband at home, she should learn some music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, songs, and needlework. This will prevent her from socializing with the ladies in the future and being clueless."
Can these be learned in a short time? Although there are modern adult interest classes, you have to be interested in it!
Liu, Guan and Zhang all nodded with obedient expressions, but deep down they didn't take it seriously.
Seeing that they were quite receptive to instruction, Madam Shen continued, "Then learn to keep accounts and manage servants..."
When it comes to checking the accounts, Liu Wanyun's eyes light up.
"Auntie, I'm interested in accounting. I'd like to learn it!"
Guan Xiaoyu understood immediately and said, "Auntie, I'm interested in managing people!"
Zhang Xinyue was stunned.
ah?
You have all chosen, what should I choose?
She paused for two seconds and got straight to the point, "Auntie, I'm interested in managing the shop!"
"Why don't you let us take care of the silk shop?"
Madam Shen narrowed her eyes and looked at the three of them. They had behaved so obediently just now, so they were waiting for her here?
Three people from ordinary families who had never seen anything actually wanted to own her shop?
Is this intention too obvious?
Mrs. Shen said angrily, "Not to mention that there are few women running businesses, even if I let you go, would you know what a silk shop does all day? How do you keep it running?"
Liu Wanyun smiled. "Auntie, you'll definitely know how to do it. Just teach us. We're in business, so we have to learn a little bit so we don't get fooled."
"There's no need for that since I have a man at home!"
Zhang Xinyue asked, "What should we do if that man has an accident and is not around?"
"Bang!"
Mrs. Shen put the lid heavily on the cup.
His face showed annoyance, and he said sternly, "What's wrong with you? Don't you hope for good things every day? How can it be an accident? There are not so many accidents!"
"What exactly do you want to do? What is your intention?"
Madam Shen glared at the three of them. She didn’t expect that someone with such a pretty face could have such a vicious heart inside!
Guan Xiaoyu, who was not very talkative, said with a cold face, "Why is Auntie so angry?"
"What could we possibly be up to? The moon waxes and wanes, and people are subject to misfortunes and blessings from day to day. We're just being prepared for the worst. Even if the man doesn't have an accident, there's no guarantee he won't have other thoughts!"
"Can you guarantee that he will always take care of the family and be completely sincere to you?"
Liu Wanyun added, "Perhaps, Grandfather took a portion of the profits from your silk shop to subsidize Aunt Sun, and you don't even know about it!"
The conversation between the two of them directly silenced Mrs. Shen.
She was a merchant's daughter, and her father had taught her a lot about the business of the shop before she got married, so that she could take care of the shop as her dowry in the future.
After marrying into the Shen family, she would still ask about things in the first few years, but later, because she was worried about the children, the affairs of the mansion, and the business of the shop, she handed everything over to Shen Changfu.
She received a fixed amount of income on time every month.
So, she has always been very relieved!
Never thought of anything else!
Later, based on this foundation, Mr. Shen opened three new silk shops, which became part of the Shen family's business!
"Don't talk nonsense! How could your uncle be such a person?"
Madam Shen scolded, but her voice was obviously not as firm as before.
Seeing her expression soften, Liu Wanyun decided to withdraw, "Yes, I shouldn't have made such presumptuous assumptions about my elders! Grandpa and Auntie have a very good relationship, there's no way such a thing could happen!"
Zhang Xinyue curled her lips and said, "Forget it, we just need to eat and drink well every day. Why worry so much? We don't even have a shop!"
Madam Shen glanced at her sideways and said, “Alright, stop provoking me!”
"In a few days, we're going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet hosted by the County Magistrate's wife. Learn the rules and etiquette carefully! If you can't learn, you don't have to go with us!"
After saying that, he waved his hand and asked them to leave.
The three of them came out of Madam Shen's yard, reviewing the situation as they walked.
Guan Xiaoyu said, "We can't be too hasty. She won't agree anytime soon. Even if she does, we'll be groping in the dark if we really try to take over. We won't understand anything!"
Liu Wanyun nodded, but her eyes were looking towards the garden. "That's right. Being too eager for quick success will only make people feel uneasy. We have a long time to live, so we should take it slow! There has to be some opportunity, something that happens, to convince her and let her know that what we say makes sense!"
As she spoke, she walked towards the garden. "Come on, let's go take a look at the garden. I'll pick some flowers and plant them in my yard."
The three of them strolled into the garden. The maids and servants who were busy beside them looked at them from time to time and whispered to each other.
“I can’t believe that the young ladies chosen by Madam Shen for the young masters are all from ordinary families. If I had known earlier, I would have given it a try!”
"You think too highly of yourself. Even if they are from an ordinary family, they at least have a job and maids to serve them. You? But you are a maid!"
"Don't maids also have higher positions?"
"Come on! Those who can get to the top are either very good-looking or have some talents and means. What do you have?"
"Why are you still arguing with me? I was just sighing casually! I won't talk to you anymore~"
Liu Wanyun saw that they were burying their heads but not looking at her. They were mumbling to each other and knew that they were definitely talking about them.
He smiled and took the initiative to greet them.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
"I'm here to move some flowers from the garden to my yard. Can anyone help me?"
She actually didn't want to trouble anyone, but these ancient clothes, with long sleeves and long skirts, got in the way.
Besides, I am the young lady, and it would be beneath my dignity if I did it myself.
The most important thing is that it feels so good to be able to order people to do things!
Those who looked at them at first all stared at the work in their hands, as if they didn't hear anything.
Her voice wasn't loud, but people busy nearby could definitely hear it.
Liu Wanyun was stunned and looked at the two sisters beside her, exchanging glances.
What's going on? Are you ignoring me?
