suspected wife

As soon as Zhou Yanqing finished speaking, Qiao Mingjin looked up at him.

There was a trace of unnaturalness on the man's face, but his eyes were clearly serious.

No joke?

Qiao Mingjin was stunned.

Seeming to sense Qiao Mingjin's doubts, the fellow nodded to him twice.

Qiao Mingjin raised her eyebrows.

"reason?"

Zhou Yanqing felt a little lighter, straightened her body, said with a straight face, "There are many reasons for this."

Glancing at Qiao Mingjin, he quickly lowered his head and counted with his fingers: "Look, I can't run alone in this carving workshop, can I? Sixth Master, I've been tired for a year, shouldn't it be you? back?"

Qiao Mingjin nodded.

Zhou Yanqing saw that there was indeed a door.This woman just doesn't want to owe favors.This trick works best.

All at once: "Think about it, how much business does my Zhou family have? There are all kinds of businesses, but all state capitals and big cities have my Zhou family's business. As for me, I am only two brothers who are biological relatives. The eldest brother is in the north, and the third brother is interested in a career. , and several concubines are also in charge of one place, I can't just stare at this workshop, right?"

"Isn't there a steward Zhou? Even if you manage half of Zhou's business, I haven't seen all your shops run away. But it's only four seasons and eight seasons, just reconciling accounts."

Zhou Yanqing choked at Qiao Mingjin's words.

"What's the matter? I'm usually busy. Besides, Steward Zhou...well, Steward Zhou is just a steward. Some orders, account books and so on, we just need to know, right?"

"Then why don't I die of exhaustion?"

"I can't make you exhausted. It's just a suggestion that you move to the city and be closer to me. It's convenient to discuss things, manage accounts, receive goods and deliver goods, and verify bills. It's getting hotter and hotter this day. Running from time to time is enough, if you get sick from being tired, don't you feel bad?"

Qiao Mingjin gave him a sideways look, but said nothing.

Zhou Yanqing knocked on the head several times, and then quickly thought about it.You can't stand in the cold, you have to work hard, the more you fight, the braver you are, right?

With a jerk, he said again: "Besides, don't your two younger brothers study in the city? Don't they still live in other people's homes? I'm afraid they will be transferred to an academy in the city in a few months? You don't want to be in the city Buy a house, and then live with them. Then take your natal parents into one place to take care of them?"

Qiao Mingjin also knocked on the armrest of the chair after hearing this.

Parents and grandmother are afraid that they will not want to live in the city, and father and grandmother seem to be reluctant to go out.

But Ming Jue and Ming Heng will be transferred to the academy in two or three months.It's not easy to live in Green Willow Villa again.

Let them live in the academy or buy a house in the city, and hire them one or two book boys to serve them, which one is better?

Living in his own home, Ming Jue can study better, right?

Ming Jue was different from Ming Heng, this year he was going to concentrate on studying for the imperial examination.Ming Heng has not reached that step yet.The house is quiet and there are no disturbances.Can you read more quietly?

Zhou Yanqing secretly looked at Qiao Mingjin. This woman seemed to care about her natal family.He is also heart-pumping to his younger brothers and sisters.Her eldest brother is the eldest son, right?Presumably with the hope of the whole family.

"I'm married. It's not bad to buy a house if I have spare money. I don't have to live in the city, do I? Besides, who will take care of this workshop?"

Zhou Yanqing didn't take it seriously: "Follow the rules. Who can make a mess? Besides, there are Zhou Guanshi and your cousin? Your cousin is very capable. Give him some more time, and he will be able to stand alone. "

Qiao Mingjin gave him a sideways look and said nothing.

That guy has a lot of property in his hands.It's not like she has only one workshop.

Besides, she managed it all by herself, thanks to it.I just survived in this other world.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at her, swallowed her saliva, and slapped her on the head again, then said cautiously: "Besides, isn't the one-year period up? You don't want to mess with them anymore, do you? I'm looking forward to it. Don't you just bring Wan'er to live in the city, so you can't see it?"

Qiao Mingjin was stunned.

Is it a one-year period?

For some reason, Zhou Yanqing looked at Qiao Mingjin's dazed expression at this moment, and suddenly felt a pain in her heart as if someone had been pinched.

This woman has always been warm and indifferent. She has never seen her laughing or crying. Thinking about it, even if she cries, she will hide and cry silently in a corner where others can't see, right?

She should have a better man by her side.

Laugh with her, give her shoulders and chest when she cries, or wipe her tears away so she can smile again.

She laughed, and she must have been very pretty.Just like the plum that is full of flowers but proud of the snow, smiling on the branch, covered by the snow, still has a dark fragrance.Shaking off that branch of thick snow, it can show its original appearance again.

I can only see you every day in the city, it looks like you are not getting tired of eating big white rice every day or just light snacks for a change of taste every now and then.

Zhou Yanqing didn't say this.

It was impossible for him to say these words.Even he didn't know his own mind.

Stone Cat was at the door of the main room, secretly looking at these two people from time to time.

Oh my god, why did his master want to let Mrs. Qiao live in the city?

There is a workshop here, and there is Mrs. Qiao's home. The master is the partner who came to inspect the affairs. By the way, Mrs. Qiao entertained a meal.

The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and no one will say anything.

But what's going on in the city?

Most of the people in Qingchuan City knew his grandfather.Taking a step outside the mansion, there are people who can't stop saying hello, if this is going to eat at Mrs. Qiao's place every day, will Mrs. Qiao be drowned in spit?

Can't do it.

Besides, is that old lady in her family easy to talk to?

Mrs. Qiao was not mean to him, she followed Master back home, and he ate the same as Master's. Mrs. Qiao never treated him like a human being.If there is something delicious to bring to my grandfather, I don’t forget to give him a copy.

He couldn't harm Mrs. Qiao.

Poor Shitou walked around outside the main room, thinking about all kinds of problems.

But Zhou Yanqing was thinking that he would make a decision for her, and he would also rely on her to clear the clouds and see the sun.

"You know. Two more businesses have been added to the family after the year, and more and more books have been handed over to me. Even if I sleep less a few hours a day, the books can't be managed."

Qiao Mingjin listened to him and looked back at him.

Seeing her looking over, Zhou Yanqing smiled, her eyebrows and eyes curved.

He said again: "As early as when you were selling counting chips in Qingchuan City, I saw that you are not only good at abacus, but also good at mental arithmetic. After the opening of this elegant art workshop, I am even more sure. Look at the account Ben’s ability is superior to countless people. You can do all kinds of things, such as checking accounts, settling accounts, keeping accounts and checking accounts, making general ledgers and detail accounts. Not a few people are good at adding and subtracting abacus beads, but you seem to be able to do multiplication and division as well. It's as good as adding and subtracting, without counting. It can't help but raise eyebrows."

After Zhou Yanqing finished speaking, she looked at her seriously.

Can a talented father raise a female tent?

Qiao Mingjin smiled secretly when he heard Zhou Yanqing's tone of admiration.

She has studied majors for seven years and has worked for several years. Can she still lose her eating bowl?If you can't count on you old antiques, she can only be remade.

Zhou Yanqing stared at the faint smile on the corner of the woman's mouth.The slightly upwardly curved corners of the mouth formed a thin lip line.Shallow dimples, just right.

Confident without being ostentatious.

His heart pounded violently.Like a brat.

He suppressed it desperately, and only then did he slow down.

"How about it, manage the accounts for me. At least let me live a few more years."

Zhou Yanqing concealed her inexplicable feelings by speaking.

"It's not that exaggerated, is it? There are not enough tents in your mansion? It's not bad for me."

"It's bad, you're the only one missing. You can fill up three or four tents by yourself. If there are too many people, it will still take up space, and it will be an eyesore. The wages will never be less. You will be satisfied. How?"

Seeing that Qiao Mingjin was a little moved, he happily raised his beautiful sword eyebrows: "I remember you said 'no one thinks less money'? 'It's better for a woman to hold more money than anything else'. This is what you said right?"

"It's hard for you to remember."

"That's it. Who am I?" Zhou Yanqing looked proud.Seems like a winner.

Qiao Mingjin pondered.

That was indeed what she said.

She doesn't think she has less money.I have always felt that it is not a bad thing for women to hold more money.

Today, the masters of the workshop are becoming more and more mature.The designed things are closer to the needs of people nowadays.Instead, she looks more like an outsider.Now she only occasionally brings up some new ideas for their reference.

The masters in the workshop are also very self-disciplined, and their bonuses are distributed. Their work and ability are also linked to the income of the workshop. The masters don’t need to be urged. As soon as they wake up every day, they automatically enter the working state .

And she seems to have nothing to do except routine inspections and raising her daughter every day.

Such a leisurely rhythm is the rhythm of retirement in the previous life.

In her bones, she still has the fast-paced wind-up rhythm forced by the devil, right?

I'm really not used to it.

"One person does the work of three people, so you can't only pay one person's salary?"

Qiao Mingjin tilted her head and joked to Zhou Yanqing who was opposite.

Zhou Yanqing laughed happily.

"Let's just say that you are an eye for money. If I knew it, I wouldn't waste so much talking, just talk about this one item. Don't worry, how can I miss you? I don't want to be a cold shoulder. Although you The food this woman cooks can only be considered passable, and the tea she makes is even less aesthetically pleasing, but Sixth Master, I don't want to miss a full meal."

After hearing these words, Qiao Mingjin raised the corners of her mouth.

It's really cheap and sold well.

She doesn't know how much worse the taste of the dishes she cooks than the cooks in his house.But anyone who ate the dishes she cooked would lick the soup clean.

The little thing Wan'er was raised by her to become fat and white.The skill of making tea is not too bad, is it?The aesthetic feeling may be a little bit worse, but when will he drink less?

Qiao Mingjin gave him a sideways glance as he thought about it.

Zhou Yanqing was very happy and didn't care about her.

"When you move, I'll send someone to help. The house doesn't need to be too big, as long as it has a yard and a few rooms. If it's too big, I don't worry if you usually take a child by yourself."

Qiao Mingjin glanced at him: "Who said I'm going to move to the city?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
