Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 117 It's a foregone conclusion, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are suspicious (2)
"My aunt will help me tell my grandmother when I go back, I'm worried she won't allow it!"

After Ji Chonglian thanked her with a smile, she added, "If Brother Bao, Brother Tian and the two elder brothers from Sanfang can also learn together, grandma probably won't object."

"I know what to do about this, so don't worry!"

Ji Minghui patted Ji Chonglian's hand with a smile, and sighed, "Now your mother's affairs are settled properly, you don't have to be so cautious except after serving, and no one will talk about what to do. "

Ji Chonglian was naturally cautious in the days of Ji's family, firstly because she was still in her filial piety and should keep a low profile, and secondly because it is important to listen and watch more before the situation is unclear.

But in these short three years, what she has experienced and obtained is also gratifying. Ji Furong and Ji Minghui have helped and protected her successively, and now even the old lady Ji is looking towards her. Aunt Liu, her life should be much smoother.

Now that Mrs. Shen has been buried safely, she has given an explanation to the Shen family. When she returned home, she wrote a letter with a pen. Although she wrote many letters and few replies, she did not become cold-hearted because of this. She believed that this relationship It is bound to be maintained, maybe one day it will become the help of their siblings.

Besides, when Shen Shi passed away, the uncle of the Shen family also came to visit them, and she really felt the care and care for her, but when the uncle talked about his mother, he was very angry, presumably it was for Ji Mingxuan and Aunt Liu I hated what I did, so much so that even the two grandsons of the Shen family didn't want to talk to them for the time being.

The attitude of the Shen family is one thing, but it does not affect her own persistence.

After returning to Ji's old house, apart from wearing filial piety, the first thing Ji Chonglian did was to visit Mrs. Ji, who was also present with Ji Furong at the time.

Ji Chonglian's gaze turned slightly, and everyone present was smiling, thinking that the sensitive topic hadn't been mentioned yet, but the eldest lady was a little restless, she seemed a little more nervous when she saw her coming.

Could it be that she was afraid that she would complain first?Ji Chonglian shook her head secretly.

After saluting according to the rules, the old lady Ji beckoned for Ji Chonglian to sit over, and pulled her to look carefully, "This is thin, and there is not much flesh on the face."

"Oh, the old lady is blaming me for not taking good care of the fifth girl. The conscience of heaven and earth, when I was in the Meng Mansion, I made offerings with delicious food and a good place to live. I dare not neglect at all. If you don't believe me, the old lady asks the fifth girl herself!"

The eldest lady patted her chest with an exaggerated expression, but in Ji Chonglian's view, it was already a bit distorted. Did such a statement pave the way for her next words?
But Ji Chonglian couldn't wait for the eldest lady to say first, if the old lady Ji's mood turned bad, what else would she have to sing?
Thinking of this, Ji Chonglian said with a smile: "My aunt is really kind to me. In the Meng Mansion, all food and clothing costs are comparable to that of my cousin Meng's family. I even made two new clothes. Grandma told me Yes, how can my aunt treat me poorly?"

After Ji Chonglian finished speaking, she giggled, and the old lady Ji was also relieved, and nodded approvingly to the eldest lady.

"Grandmother, my granddaughter has something to ask you to agree to."

Ji Chonglian raised her eyes and looked directly at the old lady Ji, her eyes were full of sincerity, and the little hands tightly clenched on her chest showed her nervousness and apprehension at the right time.

The old lady Ji narrowed her eyes slightly, "What big thing deserves your caution, you should talk about it first and listen!"

The old lady Ji did not agree, which also proved that she did not blindly pamper her. Ji Chonglian thought about it, but as long as she could tell a truth and move it with emotion, the old lady did not object to it. reason.

After Ji Chonglian organized it in her head, she talked about her opinions. First, she talked about the issue of Shen's dowry. She has kept filial piety for Shen's for the past three years. She deliberately ignored this issue, because she didn't want to be seen by outsiders. Too utilitarian, everything is indifferent and non-controversial, this is what a filial daughter should do.

Now when talking about Shen's dowry, she didn't insist on arguing for a reason. Instead, she analyzed and understood Shen's current shop in Shangjing, and finally gave her own opinions and opinions based on the current market situation.

"I don't think the shop can earn a lot of money if it is rented out to others. Why don't you take it back and run it yourself? Lin Sen's family was doing business with her father before being sold into Ji's family as a slave, and she also knew something about the market. I looked at it. She is cautious, so she thought about entrusting the shop to their family, does grandma think it is feasible?"

Ji Chonglian paused at this point, and seeing the thoughtful eyes of the old lady Ji, she added another sentence, "The granddaughter knows that the rent of this shop has been returned to the public after her mother passed away, and the eldest aunt is helping to take care of it. Our siblings are naturally at ease."

There was a hint of satisfaction in the eyes of the eldest lady, but she also wanted to know what Ji Chonglian had in mind, her eyes were also full of curiosity, and for a moment she forgot her purpose of coming to find Mrs. Ji.

Ji Furong had been silent all the time, but now she also asked curiously: "What exactly does Fifth Sister want to do, tell me clearly in one breath, so that I don't have to guess in my heart, it's so uncomfortable!"

"Yes."

Ji Chonglian responded with a smile, nodded to Ji Furong's mother and daughter, and turned her eyes to the old lady Ji, "If grandma trusts, I will hand over this shop to my granddaughter. We will not rent it out. The granddaughter promises to make a profit every month. Still paying the rent to the public office, which is exactly the same as the previous rent, what does grandma think?"

"I'll leave it to you to run the business, so who will pay for it?"

The eldest lady interjected, she would naturally not object to taking the money from the public, but if she was asked to invest the capital, she would not agree. After all, this is the dowry shop left by the Shen family, and it will be left to her in the future no matter what. Sister and brother Ji Chonglian, she doesn't have to put money in it, isn't this a marriage for others?
"Don't worry about the capital, as long as grandma and aunt leave it to me, I will naturally take care of all these things."

Ji Chonglian replied with a smile, and the eldest lady felt relieved, but the final decision rests with the old lady Ji.

The old lady Ji pondered for a long time, then looked up at Ji Chonglian, "Your mother's things are naturally left to your siblings. I didn't take care of them in the past. I just waited for them to be kept. I don't think anyone would dare to have such courage. Swallow it privately, we are not in Shangjing now, your mother's shop will naturally be rented out, firstly, there will be income, and secondly, we don't need to run it, although it saves manpower and material resources, the income is indeed less..."

"Grandmother, the amount of income is not a problem. The granddaughter just wants a chance to see if she can build the shop. In short, it is something left by my mother. If I make it work, my mother may be relieved if she knows it." .”
