My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 198 The Flowery Sedan Carried by Everyone

Qin Yuan said: "My companion is really capable. I am not bragging, even my sixth brother said so. He printed poetry collections, and my sixth brother said that they are better than those bought outside."

Madam Gu said hurriedly, "Does it cost money to print the poetry collection? If it's hard to pay from the public account, mother can give him a subsidy. We don't lack money in our house, and I don't know how much money Hui'er has in his private treasury, so you don't have to save it for him."

Qin Yuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Mother, I understand. If the Marquis knew about this, I wonder what he would think?"

"What is he thinking? Didn't his father give all the private treasury to him in the end? His money should be spent on his wife and children. What's the point of guarding mountains of gold and silver? They are dead things. No matter how much silver you have, if you don't spend it, it has nothing to do with you. You just keep it for show. You can't bring it with you when you are born and you can't take it with you when you die. Who knows who will own it in the future."

This open-mindedness is really touching.

Qin Yuan sighed in her heart, thinking how lucky she was in this life, she got to marry into a marquis's mansion and have such a good mother-in-law.

She asked, "Mother, how do you like the incense?"

Madam Gu smiled happily and said, "After using the incense you prepared, I slept much better. If there were such a big thing in the mansion in the past, I would inevitably think too much and sleep poorly. But with this incense, and perhaps because I have a good daughter-in-law like you in front of me, I sleep very well. These days, I stay in this yard and take good care of the two children, but I feel bored. However, since you are here, I guess you will soon start a new mansion."

Qin Yuan said admiringly: "Mother is indeed very smart and wiser than Zhuge Liang. If there are no more patients in a few days, this mansion will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Ge'er came over immediately and said, "Grandmother, stepmother, can you hire a teacher for me after you open the mansion?"

Madam Gu stroked the top of Cheng'er's head and said to Qin Yuan, "Cheng'er has been studying very hard recently."

But as to whether to hire a teacher, she didn't say.

Obviously, Qin Yuan and Gu Jinghui had to consider it themselves.

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Good boy, it's a good thing to read more and be more sensible. I need to discuss the appointment with the Marquis. He has been busy with many things recently. Can we talk about it after the mansion is opened?"

Cheng Ge'er immediately nodded and said, "My son will listen to my stepmother and stepfather."

Very well-behaved.

Hongye winked at Cuiming, but Cuiming pretended not to see.

Yu Jie'er followed in a thin voice, "Foster mother, I don't need to hire a female teacher. I can go to Aunt Baozhu and learn from her female teacher."

Qin Yuan nodded to her and said, "Baozhu has been staying in the yard these days and hasn't made any noise. This is really beyond my expectation. I was worried that she would make a fuss because she is young."

Madam Gu said, "My son, I have confined her to her house as punishment. Actually, she is just a little spoiled and doesn't have a clear mind. But she knows the importance of things. Zhen Jieer is missing, and something like this has happened in the mansion. She is afraid that if she makes a big fuss, her brothers will be unhappy, so she has to behave herself."

Qin Yuan smiled, nodded, and said, "Mother said that this incense is good to use. Yuan'er wants to discuss with Shopkeeper Leng to include this incense recipe in the shares of Ranxiangju, and then Ranxiangju will sell it in the future."

After hearing this, Madam Gu smiled and said to Madam Rong: "Look, you two are thinking the same thing."

"how?"

Qin Yuan asked curiously. Rong Mama smiled and said, "I asked Madam for the incense pills with a shameless face and gave some to the old sisters. They all said they were useful and wanted more, but they were too embarrassed to bother Madam. I also said that it would be great if Madam was willing to sell these incense pills."

"I see. No wonder Shopkeeper Leng sent a letter mentioning this matter. It turns out he listened to my mother-in-law."

Rong Mama couldn't help laughing and said, "Look, old lady, what Madam said is as if I have the final say over Ranxiangju."

Madam Gu also laughed: "Yuan'er's joke was made by mistake. Shopkeeper Leng is where he is today because of this old man. Rong Mama saw talent and married her daughter to him. She also helped him gain a foothold in the capital and learn to make incense. Shopkeeper Leng swore in front of the Bodhisattva that he would treat Rong Mama as his own mother."

Qin Yuan looked at Rong Mama with admiration and said, "Rong Mama is both capable and knowledgeable. Mother is so lucky. Everyone around mother is capable. In the end, mother is the one who knows how to train people. If I had one point of mother's ability, I wouldn't have to worry about my life, and I would be able to be a cheerful old lord in the future."

Just one sentence made both of them happy.

Aunt Rong smiled and said, "Madam is really good at praising people. If we don't talk about anything else, just talk about Madam's ability to make incense. Whoever marries her will be blessed. Only our old lady and the marquis have such a blessing."

Madam Gu laughed out loud.

"Everyone is carrying the sedan chair, you support me, I support you, but in the end, I am still the most blessed, with such a good person around me, and such a good daughter-in-law."

Now that we have finished joking, it’s time to get down to business.

Aunt Rong asked, "What is Madam's plan?"

Qin Yuan said: "I am young and have little experience, so I came to ask mother and Rong Mama to help me make a decision."

Rong Mama smiled and glanced at Qin Yuan, but she didn't expose her modesty, and said, "If Madam is in a hurry to use the money, you can name a price. Although Ranxiangju is a shop in the Marquis' Mansion, it is run by Manager Leng. If he thinks it is worthwhile, he can make the decision and agree to it. Madam, you don't have to hesitate about the price, and you don't have to give too much discount just because it is a shop in the Marquis' Mansion."

Madam Gu nodded.

Rong Mama continued, "Madam, your recipe is good, but it is hard to predict how much it can sell for. When Manager Leng offers a price, he dare not offer it too high, as he is also worried that he will not be able to explain it clearly when he settles the accounts, which will lead to criticism from others. Madam, why don't you give the recipe as a share? This will be easier to negotiate. The more you sell, the more you get. In the future, if the incense pills sell well, Madam will have a steady income, and you can buy some shops and farms, and eventually you will have a large business."

Qin Yuan could tell that Aunt Rong was considering her carefully.

If she asked for the money, someone would inevitably complain when she settled the accounts later, saying that she had used the money from the Marquis' Mansion as her dowry.

By converting the incense recipes into commission, Shopkeeper Leng will have more room to maneuver. Moreover, the more incense pills are sold and the longer they are sold, the more she can earn. This is indeed a good idea.

Madam Gu said, "This old woman is very good at these things. Yuan'er, just listen to her."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Madame Rong has thought it through. Now that you've said that, I know what to choose. But there's one thing. I know a lot of incense recipes, and I also have ancestral recipes in my hands. I also have my own shop. If the shop also sells incense pills, will there be any conflict with Ranxiangju?"

Aunt Rong looked surprised and asked, "Madam knows how to make many incense recipes?"

Old Madam Gu, who was sitting nearby, also had a look of surprise on her face.
