Chen Nianran remained silent. Putting aside that strange feeling, she was also a little worried about Zhou Ao Xuan's fate.

If it was an ordinary family, with his abilities, he would have long since broken off the engagement. However, this was a matter related to the royal family. Even if he had the ability to transcend the heavens, he could not disobey them.

"I previously heard that the Fifth Young Master had always avoided the Luo Family. However, this time, I never thought that he would... He even went along with it and brought the person over. Perhaps, he has already resigned himself to his fate. " Guan Shuyuan sighed again and put this matter aside.

"Aunt, this matter, is actually a good thing for Fifth Young Master. His heart … He isn't in this world, although I don't understand the Fifth Young Master very well, but I can tell that he has no intention to travel on the official road, and is focused on the business path. It had to be said that in this era of agriculture, industry and commerce, Fifth Young Master only placed importance on business.

However, he was used to watching the bustling battles between large clans, so it was reasonable for him to have such thoughts. He wanted to make a big deal out of this. If he wanted to make the business journey to a place even further than the capital, then having a marriage ceremony like the Luo Family was the most appropriate. The world of the Fifth Young Master is something we cannot hope to reach. "So, Auntie, you need to have a calm heart, don't keep bringing him along with us."

Although Guan Shuyuan knew that it was true, in her heart, how could she let it go so easily? Looking at her, she lightly shook her head. "Yes, I'm just feeling sorry for you." However, this way is also good, completely cutting off our thoughts. It's such a pity that a fine man has to be associated with such a sick wife, Fifth Young Master. "

Chen Nianran sipped on her chrysanthemum tea, a faint ridicule on the corner of her mouth. To a man, marrying a sickly girl is nothing difficult. At most, he would just give her family's ancestral grave a piece of land and allow the girl to be buried in a good place. Furthermore, she was carrying the title of widowed wife. Three years after the funeral, it would not be a simple matter for him to marry as many women as she wanted.

Because of that, the Zhou Clan had always wanted to send their little girl or girl into his room. After all, the Luo Family couldn't control him, and they couldn't help him salivate over a son and a daughter. What he could hope for was another woman.

This kind of marriage was just a deal.

Real injuries, on the other hand, would not occur.

However, even if he did, he would still feel a sense of panic in his heart.

Sensing that the atmosphere in the carriage was too heavy, Chen Nianran found a few relaxed topics to talk about.

"Ai, now that we've done the business with the mooncakes, what should we do now?" Chen Nianran said softly to herself.

Guan Shuyuan also raised her eyebrow, she rubbed her chin and started to think, "Oh right, what are we going to do? Da Lang was about to go on a long journey. Erlang was still doing well in school, and he was not allowed to look after his shop. The father said that now we had money in our hands, so we had to let them study some more. As for Sanlang, she was not very reliable, and her education was not very good. The children's parents wanted to tie him down in the shop so that he could keep an eye on the business. "Oh, Little Four, this brat has a bit of skin. However, he's still young, so I can't tell. Little Five, that little bun really has a bit of skin, but she's quite talented in the field of studying."

Chen Nianran smiled as she looked at the few children at home that his wife was scolding, while she quietly placed her hands on her waist. In the future, she would be like the aunt, calculating the future of the child. That day, thinking about it would be quite interesting.

"I see that Steamed Bun has grown up on the path of learning. Let's properly cultivate him then." Is he still surnamed Luo this year in the academy? Right now, Steamed Bun is suitable for him to enlighten himself, but if it's too long, Steamed Bun will probably have to find a good sir. "

In order to study, one not only had to have good Inherent Skill, but also a decent Sir. This was something that Chen Nianran understood very well. Especially in this era where information was cut off, excellent men were needed.

"Well, good sir is hard to get. Originally, studying was already an extremely expensive task. Just a year's worth of tuition alone was worth about four taels. If they were to take the exam and earn some fame, there would be other expenses. Ordinary families really couldn't afford it. "And because of that, your mother …" When he mentioned sister-in-law, Guan Shuyuan noticed that Chen Nianran's face changed.

She originally wanted to speak up for her disappointing sister-in-law, but when she thought of what her sister-in-law had done, she couldn't say those words anymore.

"Auntie, no matter how poor you are, will you sell out your daughter to beg for honor?" Chen Nianran poured her a cup of water and asked softly.

"This... No, no matter if it's a girl or a child, even if their son will inherit the family business, their daughter will still be their own flesh and blood. " Guan Shuyuan replied to her without thinking.

Chen Nianran half-closed her eyes, gave a sad and gentle smile, and said, "So, there's no need to speak up for her anymore."

These light and indifferent words caused Guan Shuyuan's heart to tremble.

Perhaps, the niece she had seen was clearly very strong, but in her heart, she was afraid that it would be hard for her. Thinking about it, no matter what, she was still her mother.

Thinking of this, her feelings for Chen Nianran grew even stronger.

"Oh right, we just said that we have to do something, so the topic is too far away. Girl, what do you think we should do next? I can't make the ice, I've made the mooncake. The harvest is over and the next holiday seems to be quite far away. What should we do now? "

He was really worried about this. People who were used to earning money every day would not be able to earn money all of a sudden.

Chen Nianran was also deep in thought. In fact, during the past few days when she was back home, she had been thinking about how to pass the second half of the year.

The money from the mooncake would definitely be made into a large sum. When the time comes, let the guarantor keep an eye on the field. It was necessary to buy some fields. After buying a field, he had to have some spare money.

Now she was not a person, but a real housewife. Moreover, a woman who was about to become a mother would need more money when she needed it.

The child's expenses, the school fees for eating and dressing, the servants in the house, the dowry for his sisters …

After calculating, Chen Nianran realized with sorrow that in these two years, if she did not earn a ton of money, she would not be able to run this house properly.

"Aunty, in this second half of the year, we will definitely have to do business. Can the store even make room for a window to sell cooked food? "

"Make a window?" Guan Shuyuan's eyes lit up, "Girl, are you saying that we're selling cooked food?"

"Hmm, I want to make some halogen food for sale. I have a carriage at home so I make it at home every day. Then I let Big Brother Huang pull it down and buy the raw materials I need. As for the items for sale, I've already thought about it. We can make a few cooked foods. "Brine peanut, egg, meat, liver, tail, beans, tofu, and so on."

"Ah, it's all brine!" There were people selling brine for food in the town, so the business was not too bad. If their family were to also sell these things, Guan Shuyuan was a little worried about the market's saturation point.

"For now, it's all brine. Don't underestimate these things, even small businesses can make a big price." Chen Nianran thought back to the modern days in her previous life, when her next family member was in the brine business. They had insisted on doing it for ten years. There were two houses, and two houses, too. That small business actually made so much money. If they didn't see it with their own eyes, who would believe it?

"I also know that there's definitely oil for me to earn. I'm just worried about the saturation point of the market." Guan Shuyuan stammered out his reasons.

"It's inevitable that the market will be saturated. Auntie, you have a store to sell the food and things that farmers need, so other families would sell them too. We can't say that if we start another one, we'll shove away other people's business and not do it. No one else would open this kind of business because of our family, and they wouldn't open it again. The principle of the market is always survival of the fittest. Since when did my wise and decisive aunt become like this, this is not your style. " Chen Nianran looked at her with a mischievous smile.

"This …" Guan Shuyuan's face slightly blushed, looking embarrassed. Actually, I didn't change all of a sudden. That is … Then the one in the brine business right now is... "She's the matchmaker for me and your uncle."

Err, so it was for this reason. Emotions, it was because she was afraid of others saying that she was ungrateful.

"Auntie, this is fine. You can say that you helped sell it." To the outside world, just say that I'm selling it at your house. If the Luo Family were to be opened, they would know that it was unavoidable. "If I start a fight with you because of this, it would be fine if I don't get along with this family, but in business, it will always be cruel, just like a battlefield."

Guan Shuyuan became silent. She understood these logic, and felt that she couldn't erase her face right away.

"Alright, you decide on this first. In truth, this is how things are. You and Fifth Sister still need to live. "Oh right, I was busy last time and didn't get a doctor to examine you. I think I'll have to find a doctor for you this time when I enter the city." Guan Shuyuan had always remembered this matter, but because it was related to her niece's face, she did not directly ask about it. That was why she dragged it on for so long before she started to unintentionally pull it out.

Chen Nianran went silent for a moment, and decided to be honest in the end. In fact, I really am... "She's pregnant."

"Ah …" The cup in Guan Shuyuan's hand fell into the carriage, wetting her skirt, but at this time, she didn't bother to wipe it away. There really is one! What should I do, what should I do? Ah, since Fifth Young Master is someone that must get married, what about you? "

Hearing this news, Guan Shuyuan panicked and lost control, grabbing onto Chen Nianran's hand with all her might.
