Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water
Chapter 665: So Proud
Chapter 665: So Proud
Zhou Molan thought that when she came in, her daughter heard the maids and servants outside walking around less noisily, so she guessed that she had arrived.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard her daughter guess that she had been to Hexi this morning. She couldn't help but smile again, and there was no longer any stern expression on her face.
You know, even her son-in-law didn't know that she had gone to Hexi this morning, but her daughter had guessed it first. She is indeed a very smart young lady.
When Zhou Molan entered the door, she saw that her daughter could no longer sit still. She was only wearing a thin jacket and dared to come to the door with the curtain lifted.
"Go back and sit down, it's windy outside." As she said this, she stepped back from the threshold, so as not to irritate her girl with the coldness in her body.
Zhou Banxia smiled bitterly and shook her head when she saw this, but she knew that if she took another step forward, her Aunt Lan would definitely take two steps back and even take off her cloak outside the door.
She simply returned to where she was, holding her belly, and asked her parents whether they were planning to invite Dr. Lin and others to their home for a simple meal tomorrow.
There was nothing to hide, so Zhou Molan mentioned that everything had been arranged, and Butler Zhou would take care of all matters including hiring a chef and purchasing ingredients.
Even the invitations inviting guests to arrive tomorrow have been prepared in advance and will be delivered to each household before noon today, so Zhou Banxia doesn't have to worry.
Zhou Banxia was not worried that her parents' family would not be able to host a farewell banquet. Besides, it was impossible for her father to invite so many guests to their house for dinner and drinks tomorrow.
If there are too many uninvited guests, the expenses will be even higher. So just invite a few close friends to liven things up a bit.
People talk too much.
The male guests are easy to deal with, but the female guests are different. There must be no ignorant woman who would come over and say anything obscene at the dinner table.
Some women are different from her mother in that they are outspoken. No matter how outspoken her mother is, she will never utter vulgar or obscene words.
But some women, like her aunt.
Her aunt often says in public that she doesn't mean what she says, but it's hard to say how much of that is from a genuine source or if she does it on purpose.
According to her eldest sister, their aunt was often outspoken enough to spread other people's privacy in public and dared to imitate any obscene words.
There is no way her father would invite her eldest sister-in-law and her husband to come over tomorrow, let alone her grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, and their wives.
If any of them pretends to be crazy or drunk tomorrow, even if she doesn't say vulgar or obscene words, she can just cry and ask her father to forgive her.
It's so disgusting.
"...Don't rush over. Even your eldest sister, your parents are worried that she will be hurt. It's better to wait until tomorrow and go with Huijieer and the others."
Zhou Banxia happily agreed.
She still understands this principle.
Not to mention that she is pregnant now, even if she is not pregnant, it would be inconvenient for her to go and help her mother arrange the wedding banquet tomorrow.
Nowadays, when a married girl returns to her parents’ home, she is considered a guest. She can help out in private, but she cannot overstep the line, lest others think that there is no one available in her family.
Especially at this critical juncture, the cousins from the Qi Mansion went to have a farewell banquet, and they also went to investigate her family's style.
Putting these things aside, Zhou Banxia quickly got back to the point, and while letting Zhou Molan look at the route map, she talked about her own ideas and plans. In order to make it easier for her to travel with her uncle and his family, she planned to purchase three or five manors along the way from Qinghe Village to Zhoujia Village and set them as her base.
The reason why she said she wanted to buy three or five farms was that it was difficult to buy enough farms, not because she was short of money. She still had a lot of idle cash on hand.
Not to mention the shop rent received from her master's dowry, and the income from various villages over the past year, the workshop also has a lot of income every month.
What's more, there are several shops in the capital that were originally included in the dowry list and her third brother brought the rent for next year to her this time.
In terms of cash flow, up to now, Mr. Zhao Sanye, the largest dog dealer in Qinghe County, may not be as well-off as she is. Even if she doesn't mention it, her aunt Lan knows it very well.
However, even though she had money, she couldn't buy the farm whenever she wanted, unless someone left the place and never came back, or was so poor that she had to sell it.
But for the latter, from ancient times to the present, property ownership has been a symbol of family prosperity. Selling land and houses is tantamount to ruining the family. Unless it is absolutely necessary, few people will transfer their land and houses.
Like this Gujiazhuang and the villa of Mr. Wu that was acquired by Mr. Zhao Sanye, they are all gone now, and it is their children and grandchildren who are incompetent and can no longer bear it, so they have to sell it.
But they were also looked down upon. The Gu family was better off as they had many sons. The sons of the Gu family who were allocated the Gujiazhuang property were not interested in it and used the silver to exchange for shops.
The Wu family is in a really miserable situation.
Now, no one can be compared with the most famous prodigal son in Qinghe County except Wu Jiazi. Wu Jiazi has completely become a representative of the negative side.
If a son of any family spends money recklessly, his parents will say, "If you want to become the second son of the Wu family, I'd better beat you to death."
Zhou Molan almost choked when she heard this. She quickly put the teacup in her hand back to its original place, while expressing that her girl's idea was very good.
Money cannot produce any children if left alone, and her daughter is not likely to lend it out at high interest rates, so it would be more appropriate to exchange it for a farm or a shop.
Of course, the main thing is that if her daughter only relies on the income from the farm and shop to live, it would be one thing, but the income from the workshop should be very good.
Thinking that her daughter had come up with something new and launched a limited edition gift box for New Year gifts in this twelfth month, Zhou Molan looked at Zhou Banxia with pride.
At this time, Zhou Banxia was sitting on the wooden couch. The winter sun shone through the window screens and sprinkled on Zhou Banxia's face with a bright and charming smile between her eyebrows.
Although she was only wearing a very casual skirt and jacket, her soft, black hair was simply combed into a simple bun and fixed with a wooden hairpin.
But no matter how Zhou Molan looked at it, she felt that her young lady was undoubtedly born with a very good appearance. Even if she was not as beautiful as a fairy, she was still top-notch.
Especially a pair of eyes, which are clear and bright, full of spirit, but he asks for nothing all day long, and does not want to climb high and look far, but prefers to be free and leisurely.
so similar.
Too much like a lady.
"Why don't you buy a farm or a shop in the capital? If there is a chance, have you mentioned to your son-in-law how to deal with it?"
"Yes. I didn't know what was going on. When I went back to my room yesterday, he told me not to use the dowry and to prepare a huge sum of money from the workshop account to marry a good wife.
He said that even if my parents-in-law knew the truth, they would agree. I didn't agree to him. Nothing can be more important than the betrothal gifts from my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother, right, Aunt Lan?"
