Chapter 654 due treatment

"Oh," Zhao sighed first, and it was really embarrassing to see, "We have been in the capital for two months, and it seems that it is the new year, and maybe when the year comes, the Zhou family will come to the capital , At that time, Luo Aqiao's marriage was still to be discussed. But Aqiao can't be idle for a moment, how can this be good?"

When Mrs. Zhao said this, Qi Younian was also a little embarrassed. He quickly asked the servant to pour tea for Mrs. Zhao, and then said apologetically, "Aqiao is indeed busy. We didn't bring many people with us when we came to the capital this time. It’s left to May Fourth, and Aqiao is indeed busy. But we have recruited a few craftsmen who are good at writing, and we will recruit people one after another in the next year. By then, Aqiao will definitely be able to relax.”

After listening to Qi Younian's words, Mrs. Zhao disapproved.They said that it would be easier for Aqiao to hire a person. Doesn't that mean that Aqiao is regarded as a hired worker?He also said that he should be treated as his own nephew.

In this family, many people are living happily.Qi Sanshun is not young anymore, he went to school all day long, I heard that his homework is not very good, he is not a person who can be admitted to the scholar, but he still hangs out in the school all day long, and he has not seen anyone who asks him to learn some crafts , has a skill.

There is also that Guan He, who is just a thug hired by the Qi family to protect the courtyard, but he provides daily offerings, eats and drinks well, and leads the children of the family to hang out and play all day long, which is better than the master of the big family. The ones are still at ease.

Even the girl named Zi Ning and the servant Jiuhua didn't have to do anything, they just ate and wandered around all day long.

Aqiao, whom Qi Younian calls his nephew, has to work as a cow and a horse for the Qi family, and he has no leisure every day.

Qi Younian saw that Mrs. Zhao didn't speak for a long time, and then said: "If the seventh brother and sister have urgent matters, then I will bring Aqiao back, and you should deal with the urgent matters first." Then you can only find His Royal Highness Yu Wang, please ask Yu Wang Several gentlemen in His Highness's mansion helped, and thanked them well afterwards.

Mrs. Zhao finally raised her eyes, she was not talking about this, she was talking about Aqiao not getting the treatment she deserved.

"Brother, I want to ask, the day before yesterday several high officials from the imperial court came to our yard, and the business they talked about...can make a lot of money? There are also a few people who want to come in to build a school and do things, and they also paid a huge amount tuition fee?"

When Qi Younian heard Zhao's question about this, he couldn't help but paused, his brows tightened.

Is he going to tell Mrs. Zhao that if there are no leaves, such an amount of wages will never be negotiated?Ordinary private construction companies are not as much money as the court says, so there is no room for bargaining.

Moreover, all the documents and materials for the construction of the wooden track in Qinghe Village were made by Ye Zi's leader, and now Ye Zi has sorted out the matter, listed the items, and arranged for the people below to do it.

What does Zhao mean by this?
Qi Younian still smiled and said: "Seventh brother and sister also know that I rolled out of mud and water, and I don't understand those twists and turns. If the seventh brother and sister have something to say, just say it directly. If you ask me to guess, I just think of it." I can’t even think about it tomorrow.”

However, Mrs. Zhao knew that Qi Younian was by no means that careless and incomprehensible person, so saying that now is just pretending to be confused.Since he doesn't want to say it, he can say it himself.

"I'm not afraid of big brother's jokes. Big brother also knows our family background. However, next spring, Aqiao will get married. If he is married to a child of an ordinary family, we can support him. But he insists on marrying the daughter of an official's family. It's really embarrassing, we can't treat other people's daughters badly, and we can't always be attached to others."

At the beginning, one or two of them all urged their sons to marry Miss Zhou's family.She let go, and the marriage was concluded, but everyone disappeared, and she only knew how to watch the fun.If she has no family background, how can she pretend to be a mother-in-law when her daughter-in-law comes in?

Qi Younian could probably guess what Zhao meant, but he didn't mind buying more things for Wang Qiao, so he nodded and said, "What my brother and sister said is that it's all for the sake of the children. I remember."

Mrs. Zhao looked very happy, and said: "I knew that elder brother is an elder who cares about his nephew. Since this is the case, the younger siblings will tell me directly. I heard that the salary that Aqiao is doing now is 3000 taels of silver, of which 1000 taels is to bring apprentices. Of course, only those with good craftsmanship can bring out apprentices, don’t you think, big brother?”

Qi Younian blew on the foam above the teacup, but there was no response.The seventh sibling made inquiries quite clearly, what is she trying to do?
Mrs. Zhao had already started, and naturally she would not stop because of Qi Younian's refusal. She continued: "Brother knows best that our Aqiao's craftsmanship in the construction industry is to support the appearance. Now this business, with Aqiao Mainly, there are only seven people who participated seriously, and the total salary is 2000 taels of silver."

Mrs. Zhao stopped talking, looked at Qi Yongnian, and said nothing.Don't you understand this account?The rich life of co-authoring the Qi family is all earned by Aqiao, but Aqiao's life is not as good as that of a servant.

Qi Younian sighed secretly, May Fourth spent more time with their mother and son, if May Fourth was here, there would be a lot of things to say, but now that May Fourth is not here, as the head of the Qi family, no matter how he responds, it seems to be defending himself .

Qi Younian pondered for a moment, then asked, "Did the seventh brother and sister say these things to Aqiao?"

Mrs. Zhao is disdainful, knowing that Aqiao is a sincere child, so she wants Aqiao to decide the matter. If this continues, Aqiao will suffer a lifetime loss and earn money for the Qi family for a lifetime.

Qi Younian didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to answer, but said: "The construction company belongs to the Qi family. I'm afraid my younger siblings won't believe me. But the younger siblings can ask Aqiao in detail about how the construction company works. After asking clearly, maybe the seventh siblings won't think so. Aqiao knows everything about it."

Mrs. Zhao became a little angry. In this family, those cunning people who only take money and do nothing, live a happy life, but bully Aqiao for being honest.

Originally, she just wanted to remind Qi Younian that just by looking at the 3000 taels of silver, he could tell how much Aqiao had done for the Qi family and how much money he had earned, so that he could have an idea in his mind, and it was just to give Aqiao a fair deal.

But now, Uncle Aqiao is pretending to be stupid and fooling people here, which is really chilling.

When Mrs. Zhao thought this way, her complexion became not so pretty. She drooped her eyelids and said coldly: "I originally thought that elder brother and Aqiao's father had a fateful friendship, but now I just came to remind elder brother that Aqiao is here. The Qi family has done a lot of things, but they are not treated as well as those who don't do anything all day long. But the eldest brother said so, which makes the sister-in-law chill."

Mrs. Zhao raised her eyes and asked seriously: "I don't know about the other money the Qi family earned, but for the 3000 taels of silver, elder brother give me a solid background, how much role did Aqiao play in it?"

Qi Younian frowned, and Mrs. Zhao added: "Brother, don't think wrongly. If you have time, you can write a letter to your fourth brother and eldest nephew, asking about your sister-in-law's character. My sister-in-law is not the kind of person who is greedy for money." , I just want Aqiao to be treated fairly."
