Chapter 2011 Conditions
"Why are you here again?" Gu Jinli remembered Lan Jiulang's kindness to Qin Sanlang, so when the Xiao family came to ask for a meeting, she almost always met them: "What's going on this time? Tell me."
Sister Xiao cried: "Cousin, look at the coat your brother is wearing. It's all patched. Look at his face. He's so thin that he's out of shape!"
Gu Jinli: "Cousin, are you blind? Your brother is fed with egg custard every day, but he has gained a lot of weight. Where is the thinness and appearance?"
She waved her hands and said, "Don't be so miserable. If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't have time to watch you act."
After saying that, he grabbed the broad knife lying next to him, pulled out the broad knife, and smashed it on the table with a bang.
Sister Xiao trembled in fright, quickly put away her tears, hugged Brother Gui and hid behind Widow Xiao.
"Good-for-nothing." Widow Xiao scolded and smiled at Gu Jinli: "My nephew and daughter-in-law, I heard that you have opened a porcelain kiln in partnership with others and want to do the porcelain business? Oh, this is a big and expensive business. Just put a few of your relatives in the porcelain kiln. There are no relatives to help you and your wife keep an eye on it. If you are fooled by the partners, you will make a lot less money!"
It turned out that I was interested in the porcelain business and wanted to make some money.
But Gu Jinli didn't say anything, he just looked at Widow Xiao expressionlessly, which almost made Widow Xiao unable to speak.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "My nephew and daughter-in-law, you and your wife are the only relatives here. My aunt will go and clean up now. Tomorrow, she will go to Qingniu Mountain Village to help you and your wife keep an eye on the porcelain kiln business. How about that?"
"Not so good." Gu Jinli looked at Widow Xiao's belly and said, "Aunt, you are almost pregnant, so you should stop fussing about it. As for the porcelain business, we and I are just holding shares and don't intend to take care of it too much."
Sister Xiao hated the iron and said: "Cousins, how can you ignore this? What if you don't care about it and you are cheated? It's all money!"
Widow Xiao: "Yes, nephew-in-law, that porcelain can be sold for a lot of money. If you don't keep an eye on it, you will lose not just a few taels of silver, but hundreds of taels!"
Gu Jinli held his chin with one hand and tapped the blade with the other. He looked at Xiao Mei, who had been silent, and said, "What about you, do you think it would be good to go to Qingniu Mountain Villa?"
Xiao Xiaomei said: "I heard that Qingniu Mountain Villa belongs to Uncle Cao's family. It has a large blue brick house with tiles. It's good to live in it... However, I don't think my cousins are involved in the Qingniu Mountain Porcelain Kiln House. Things are right."
Yo, you are smart.
"Don't do this, little sister. The Zhong family is a wealthy family. Even if you boil raw rice into porridge, you still won't be able to get into the Zhong family." She persuaded her earnestly: "The Zhong family pays attention to family status, and the legitimate son If you marry someone who is either a noble daughter of a royal family, a daughter of a noble family, or the legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official, you will not be able to become a concubine."
How do you know that Xiao Xiaomei has great ambitions: "If I let my cousin do more meritorious service and be granted the title of Marquis, won't the Zhong family not dare to look down on me?"
Gu Jinli:
For a moment, I couldn't find the words to scold him back.
"Don't worry, Cousin, I won't let myself suffer. Zhong Yu is so stupid, he can't take advantage of me." Xiao Xiaomei waved her hand and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about it now, it's about the future anyway... Cousin Sister-in-law, if my eldest sister, brother-in-law, and eldest brother fail to do their jobs well, what punishment will I receive? Is it severe?"
She wont agree if the punishment is too harsh.
Gu Jinli chuckled: "Of course it's heavy. Is it possible that you want to take advantage of it without taking a little risk?"
He urged again: "If you don't agree, tell me quickly."
Xiao Xiaomei was a little angry, but finally agreed: "Let's do it."
Agree first and then take advantage.
Gu Jinli saw through her idea at a glance, but it didn't matter, she had plenty of ways to deal with them.
"If nothing happens, go back and stop wandering around. If you can't finish the work, your Lantern Festival meat will be deducted!" Gu Jinli threatened.
Widow Xiao, mother and daughter were very angry and left with Brother Gui in their arms.
However, before leaving, he also took away the two plates of food on the low table and said euphemistically: "Take them back for your brother to make up for your little cousin."
On this day, because the brick kiln made money, the relatives saw hope, and the whole guardhouse was full of laughter.
But early the next morning, they started crying and howling because the tricks taught by Gaofen's mother were too difficult to learn!
