Chapter 451 Will it be used as a dowry when I get married?
It is usually something that the ladies of wealthy families in the backyard of their houses are good at.
What to do? Jiang Lianzhu looked at Liao Jiu.
Liao Jiu was a man and couldn't handle such a thing. After the final discussion, Liao Jiu gave Jiang Lianzhu an idea.
"How about I ask my mother, Madam Zhou, to help with the banquet, or you ask Madam Lin to help?"
Jiang Lianzhu decisively chose to ask Mrs. Lin for help.
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Lin Ziyi came uninvited...
Jiang Lianzhu told Lin Ziyi what she meant. Lin Ziyi was like Nezha with wind-fire wheels on his feet. After hearing what Jiang Lianzhu said, he immediately agreed and hurried back to the house to find Mrs. Lin.
Not long after, Mrs. Lin came to Jiang Lianzhu in person and expressed her willingness to help.
As long as she can be of use, just let me know.
Then, they discussed the time and set it for three days later.
A grand banquet was held to open the mansion. We had just moved in and there were many things to buy, so three days was the fastest time.
Jiang Lianzhu discussed with Liao Jiu. Since she had three days, she wanted to take advantage of these three days to go back to her hometown to report her safety in person, and then send Nanny Chunjian's ashes back for burial.
Liao Jiu agreed, arranged the things at hand, and accompanied Jiang Lianzhu back.
***
Shili Town, Jiang’s Medical Clinic.
Lao Wang's family moved in a few days ago.
Mrs. Wang Liu was basking in the sun in the yard. "Ah, it's still comfortable to live in a big house like this. It's much better than that straw hut in the countryside. It's windproof and rainproof. Not to mention this two-story house, even the small bungalow in the backyard is solidly built. It's much better than the house we used to live in Wangjia Village."
The third daughter-in-law was washing clothes in the yard and she was working very hard.
"Mom, of course not. Look at these bricks, these tiles, this yard, the high wall, and the two-story building in front. It's all ours now. Hehe, we have so many children, so it's just enough space. If we can't live here anymore, we still have a big two-story yard in Wangjia Village..."
It’s so beautiful just thinking about it.
Mrs. Wang Liu also felt very good. She got the shop smoothly in one go, and the house in the village would only take a little more effort.
"We should do some business with this shop. We can't leave such a big shop empty. We should do something to make money..."
"Mom, that's hard to say! We can rent it out to someone else to do business! I heard that a restaurant this big used to rent for two taels of silver a month..."
Mrs. Wang Liu's eyes lit up. "Two taels of silver! We won't have to worry about food and drink for the whole family. We can eat meat every day."
Having said that, I couldn’t wait any longer and went to the front gate.
Old man Wang was sitting there, smoking a pipe.
"Old man, let's take down the sign for Jiang's Clinic. We can sell it for some money. The workmanship seems pretty good. Then, we can put up a rental ad at the door and rent out the second floor. From now on, we'll never have to worry about food and drink just from this storefront."
Old Man Wang thought it was feasible. He had been sitting at the gate these days, observing the nearby businesses, which were all quite prosperous. He also specifically inquired about the rent of the shops. This was exactly what he had in mind.
"Come on, bring the ladder over here so I can go up and get the plaque."
"Okay."
The third daughter-in-law also came to help. She and Mrs. Wang Liu brought out a ladder and set it up. Old man Wang was about to climb up to take the plaque of Jiang's Medical Clinic...
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Stop! Stop it!"
Old Man Wang and the others took a closer look.
It was Erya who came with a few men from Wangjia Village.
Mrs. Wang Liu frowned and said, "How are you talking, Erya? Can't you use some respectful language when talking to your grandparents? You have no manners!"
Erya's face flushed, but she remained undaunted. She shouted, "Grandpa, Grandma, what do you want to do? You've taken over our doctor Jiang's clinic and are trying to take its plaque. If you do this, doctor Jiang will arrest you and put you in jail."
Several villagers from Wangjia Village also spoke up, "Old Man Wang, Mrs. Wang Liu, you are so shameless that you actually stayed in the Jiang Clinic openly. Who let you stay here?"
"This is Doctor Jiang's property. Doctor Jiang asked us villagers to take care of it for her. You should move out immediately."
…
Mrs. Wang Liu's shrill voice suddenly burst into howls.
"Hurry up! The people from Wangjia Village are trying to seize our grandson's property! They're bullying us, the old, weak, and disabled... If you want to rob our three grandsons' houses, you'll have to step over the bodies of us old couple first..."
Erya and the others were stunned.
"Grandpa, grandma, it's clearly you who are shameless. You've taken over Dabao and his shop..."
Old Man Wang sneered, "You also know how to call us grandpa and grandma, you traitor. What's the matter? Are you colluding with outsiders to swallow up the property of your two cousins? I'm telling you, don't even think about it!"
Erya's eyes turned red with anxiety. "I never thought of that. This is Doctor Jiang's clinic. I have to protect it for Doctor Jiang."
Mrs. Wang Liu cursed, "Everyone knows that you, Erya, are vicious. Your family has occupied the country house, and you're also thinking about this shop. Do you think that just because you served as an apprentice to Jiang for a few days, you will be obsessed with this clinic? Do you think that this clinic is yours? You are just like your shameless mother. As soon as your husband was imprisoned, you hurriedly filed for divorce, fearing that you would be implicated by our Wang family, so you turned around and tried to climb up the social ladder. As our granddaughter, you have always opposed our Wang family. Now you are even more excessive. Not only have you occupied your two cousins' big country house, but you have also set your sights on the shop in town! Erya, what do you want so much property for? As a dowry in the future? If your two cousins come back, where will they go to stay? You have such a cruel heart!"
Erya was stunned.
Wang Liupozi has mastered the skill of turning the tables.
"I didn't, it's you who wanted to take their property!"
Wiping her tears, Mrs. Wang Liu said, "Grandpa and I are both old and about to be buried. How could we seize our grandson's property? We are only here to guard the house for him. Otherwise, there will be many ungrateful people like you. When they return from their escape, they won't even have a place to hide."
At this time, more and more people came to the door of Jiang's Medical Clinic to watch the excitement.
After hearing what Wang Liu Po said, people began to look at Erya and the men of Wangjia Village with suspicion, pointing fingers and talking about them.
On one side were my elderly grandparents, and on the other side was my cousin with a group of strong villagers...
"This Erya did work as a servant for Doctor Jiang before, but not long after, bandits came and Doctor Jiang fled."
