Chapter 345 Two Shopkeepers

Wan Lifang said sincerely: "Dad, you also know the situation of our family. Life is becoming more and more difficult every year. If there is no more income, our father and son will not be able to continue reading this book. If there is Miss Gu, With the dowry and the continuous dividends from Gu's Restaurant and Gu's Workshop, our family's life will definitely be better."

Wan Xiucai knew that his family's life was difficult. After listening to Wan Lifang's words, he pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "My son is right. You can't study and learn without money."

"It's just that...Dad is still not willing to accept it. Our Wan family is of your generation and we should marry a girl from an official family. Now we can only marry a girl from a well-to-do family with some money."

Wan Xiucai beat his chest and lamented that his family's fate was not good. After two generations of hard work, he had not yet become an official.

Wan Lifang was a wolf. In order to comfort Wan Xiucai, he choked with red eyes and said: "Dad, it is just a temporary measure for us to marry Gu Dafu's daughter in order to have money for our father and son to study. After a few years, we will have a son." After passing the examination, she will be demoted to a concubine, and she will beg to marry an official lady and become the lintel of my family."

Wan Xiucai was stunned, feeling that his son had gone too far: "Isn't this bad?"

But Wan Lifang said righteously: "Dad, when it comes to marriage, we have always paid attention to the right family. If his son is admitted to the official position and becomes an official, he will naturally marry an official lady. Gu Dafu can't say anything. After all, when the time comes, My son is an official."

Wan Xiucai thought about it and felt it was right, so he nodded.

Seeing that he agreed, Wan Lifang immediately said, "Dad, you still have to go talk to Mom, I'm afraid she won't agree."

Wan Xiucai's face turned cold and he snorted: "I am the head of the family, how dare she refuse to agree? If not, I will write a divorce letter and divorce her."

It's okay to not be able to help Wan's family, but she dares to use Wan's money to supplement her parents' family. It's okay not to want such a mother-in-law.

Gu Dashan didn't even know many Chinese characters, and there was a large seal specially stamped by the county government on the household registration, which he couldn't even read.

Gu Jinan had noticed this place for a long time and invited Shang Xiucai and Shang Lichang over.

"I'll take a look." Shang Lichang took the household registration from shopkeeper Feng, squinted at it for a while, and then handed it to Shang Xiucai directly: "Old man, my eyes are hard to use, Wen Yuan, you scholar, come and take a look. .

After hearing this, shopkeepers Feng and Lin were both surprised and bowed to Shang Xiucai: "It turns out that this brother is actually a scholar. It's disrespectful and disrespectful."

Shang Xiucai said: "A small scholar is not worth mentioning. You two brothers don't need to be so polite."

Shang Li groaned twice and said in agreement: "He is indeed a young scholar, not comparable to your father-in-law, who is the county captain of our Tianfu County."

Gu Jinan suppressed a smile, Mr. Shang was worthy of being a chief. These two words shocked Shopkeeper Feng and Shopkeeper Lin.

But Gu Jinan underestimated Chief Shang Li. After he said this, he added: "Speaking of which, your father-in-law is just a county captain or an assistant officer. He is not as good as Xu County Magistrate, who is the chief official of our Tianfu County. But The county magistrate is a good eater. Because he loves the braised meat and roast duck from Dashan's shop, he heard that the shop was opening today and sent Master Tian to deliver a plaque. He can be regarded as a loyal gourmet. "

This time, not only shopkeepers Feng and Lin, but also Liang Zhuzi were shocked and asked: "Brother Gu, the county magistrate sent someone to deliver a plaque to your shop?"

Gu Dashan smiled and nodded: "Yes, I gave him a plaque from Gu's Restaurant, which has already been hung on the door."

There were many guests in the lobby waiting to get things. After hearing this, someone living in the town said: "No, when Mr. Tian and Mr. Jiang came to deliver the plaque in the morning, everyone in our town saw it. , everyone came to watch the excitement for a long time, Brother Gu and the others are so handsome that everyone who opens a shop in the town is envious of them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingtian came out with a basket and handed it to the person who just spoke: "Uncle Hong, here are two kilograms of braised fish cubes, one kilogram of fried tofu, and eight bean dregs cakes from your house. Go to the counter. Pay the money, where will Grandpa Qin collect the money?"

The shop opened today and it was too busy. Mr. Qin was old and didn't like to entertain guests, so he just sat at the counter to collect money.
