Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 268

Li Chun'e wished to tear Xia Junyan into pieces.Didn't this little slut who crawled out of that ditch who didn't know which hole hurt her enough, now even want to compete with her in the silk business?Go dreaming!Overwhelmed stuff!
It was her negligence that made Xia Junyan climb to this position step by step.If I had known this earlier, I would have taken advantage of the last small banquet and would rather make it bigger than let the little maid coax her out. I just didn't expect this bitch to be so cautious. After wearing three sets of clothes and entering the mansion, he really regarded himself as a character!It's just that in front of so many ladies and ladies, no matter how much Li Chun'e hated her, she still had to put on a calm face: "Oh, is that so? Shopkeeper Xia is going to open a cloth shop too? The business is really booming."

Xia Junyan covered her face and smiled lightly: "Where do I have such capital, I just sell some gadgets like handkerchiefs and snacks."

That made her even more curious.After all, every time Xia Junyan made a big move, at least half of Yun'an Town would know about it, let alone the big event of opening a shop.

Li Chun'e said: "When will shopkeeper Xia open? When it opens, you can make a post for me, so you can go and congratulate me."

"It would be best if the lady could come, I was afraid that no one would come." Xia Junyan said, "A few days before the opening, I will definitely send posts to the houses, and I hope the ladies will not be annoyed I'm fine."

The liveliness here caught Mrs. Chen's attention, and she couldn't help sending the maid beside her to ask, "What's the matter over there?"

It happened that Rui Zhu came over with some tea, and replied, "Going back to Madam, shopkeeper Xia has opened a new shop, and he is inviting all the ladies to come and enjoy it."

Mrs. Chen nodded, not saying anything.Instead, a young daughter-in-law wearing a goose-yellow veil dress beside her said: "That shopkeeper Xia is really lively and smart. I heard that she came from the countryside, and she was praised by Uncle Wu. I thought Aunt Wu He will also accept her as a student, it is rare for Uncle Wu to praise her for being eager to learn."

This young daughter-in-law is Mrs. Chen's niece. At Mrs. Chen's invitation, Chen Shuyun also came to watch the ceremony today.Mrs. Chen smiled, and immediately regained her composure, "I have some plans, but I don't intend to accept her as a student. If shopkeeper Xia is free someday, I hope she can come to this women's school to help give a lecture. .”

Chen Shuyun was startled.She originally mentioned it as a joke, but she didn't expect Mrs. Chen to lift Xia Junyan up so high.Even if her grandfather wrote some reading symbols, what did it matter to her?Due to Master Chen's vigorous promotion, Chen Shuyun has also seen such symbols in her husband's books. In all fairness, she doesn't think there is anything worthy of such admiration for this small symbol. It's just to read books faster, and those who have already been familiar with it don't need to use these things at all.

How can anyone be able to read such a big event as reading?So what if those cats and dogs can read fast through sentence reading symbols.Many people in the gentry class like Chen Shuyun think that the set of sentence reading symbols is just an opportunistic way that cats and dogs also want to read.

Chen Shuyun laughed immediately: "Although shopkeeper Xia does know a few words better than ordinary girls, the female students accepted by Fifth Aunt's girls' school are all intelligent ladies, and some of them are studying in the academy at home. Brothers of the family, or members of the clan who are famous in the clan. If the fifth aunt wants to invite people to teach, she should also invite some eminent wives to come, so as to be convincing."
