Chapter 201 Give me a slap in the face

 Along the way, all Xu Hongda thought about was that his mother had offended Xiangxing’s family so badly that Xiangxing asked him to choose between Xu’s family and her mother’s family.

Although the Xu family is not honest in doing things, she is his mother and sister-in-law, so he can’t deny it, can he?

Oh, okay, what's going on?

When he returned to Xiangxing's house, the outside of Xiangxing's house was crowded with people watching the fun. Xu Hongda thought: This is not good for country people. If something happens to someone's family, I wish the whole village would come over to watch the fun. Wait a minute.

If he needs to kneel down to plead for mercy, how embarrassing would it be to be watched by so many people?

Someone saw Xu Hongda coming back and shouted: "Uncle Xu is back, get out of the way."

As everyone moved out of the way, Xu Hongda entered the yard and saw the situation inside, and was a little confused at the time.

Princess Qingping, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, was sitting at the stone table drinking tea. His mother-in-law and his wife were all standing behind Princess Qingping to listen to the instructions.

He had never felt that the Qingping group leader looked like a princess before, but now he finally thought that the Qingping group leader was a princess personally named by the emperor, and her status was equivalent to that of a prince or a prince's daughter.

At this time, the extremely noble Princess Qingping raised her chin slightly and opened her thin lips, "My princess and Xiang Xing grew up together and they are like sisters. When she got married, my princess was worried that she would not be loved by her mother-in-law when she came to her husband's house. It turns out that

She thought about building her a house in the village and recruiting a husband back. But she was afraid of people gossiping, and said that the Xu family was a family of scholars, and they should be knowledgeable and sensible, not a family that would embarrass their daughter-in-law. The princess thought

What she said made sense, so I followed her."

"The Xu family's aunt sent her back to celebrate her birthday and stayed to help with some farm work. The princess saw this and felt very relieved. It can be seen that Xiang Xing did not choose the wrong family. The Xu family treats Xiang Xing well, and the Lin family naturally treats her well.

It couldn't be worse. In the past few years, there have been several great scholars in the village. They are all good scholars who have distinguished themselves in the capital. They were invited by the princess's fiancée because he has some skills. That day, I happened to hear that Uncle Xu's family wanted to

After being tested as a scholar, he was asked to study with those great scholars. He didn't tell the Xu family in advance, but it was the Lin family's fault. Please don't take offense to his mother-in-law."

"If my mother-in-law feels that a great Confucian who is courteous and virtuous even to the prince and grandson is not qualified to teach Mr. Xu, she will take Mr. Xu back today. But this year, many people from Qingping County and other counties have come to Hedong Village to study, and there are more talents.

It will become more and more difficult to take the scholar examination. I also wish my uncle Xu to go to high school."

After saying that, Lin Xiaoman looked at Ms. Miao and smiled, which made Ms. Miao very nervous. When she heard the laughter from the people next to her, she became even more embarrassed.

She originally thought that Lin Xiangxing's family was trying to prevent her son from returning, and it was just an excuse for him to stay and study. In fact, they just wanted her son to stay and help with the farm work.

No matter how good a teacher in a village is, can he be better than a teacher in an academy? If he was really that capable, he would have gone to teach in an academy a long time ago.

In a fit of anger, he rushed in rashly, but after just a few quarrels, Princess Qingping was summoned.

After listening to Princess Qingping's words, she was not so sure: Could it be that her daughter-in-law's mother-in-law's family is really kind?

Yes, she is a daughter-in-law after all. Her son will take the exam to become an official and she can also be an official’s wife. There is really no need to delay her son’s future just for a little farm work.

Seeing that Miao's face softened, Lin Xiaoman sighed and said: "Oh, my princess and Xiang Xing grew up together since childhood. Their bond is unparalleled by others. I must have heard that my mother-in-law also heard that this princess has many possessions.

How to make money, right? I originally thought that after Xiangxing got married, I would set up some business for her, so that she could earn enough to eat and drink. But I didn't expect that she would get pregnant just after she got married, and she would have to take care of children in the future. This business would be scary.

It’s impossible to do it. It’s a pity that there are scholars in my family, so I guess I don’t like doing business, right?”

When Miao heard this, she immediately shook her head like a rattle, "Where? Where? This is too fancy. The princess can just leave the business to us, without Xiang Xing lifting a finger. Then she will

Just take care of the kids at home, and the business matters are enough for us as a family."

Lin Xiaoman was surprised, "Do you really like it?"

Mrs. Miao nodded hurriedly, Lin Xiaoman clapped her hands and laughed, "Very good, very good. Let's do this. My mother-in-law will stay here for a few days, and I will wait for the princess to talk to my mother-in-law about the business in detail. I will meet you on business in the future.

If you find yourself in a difficult situation, you can come over. As long as you don't violate the laws of the imperial court, don't bully others with power, and don't bully the market, I, the princess, will make the decision with you."

Mrs. Miao was so happy that the corners of her mouth were raised. She happened to see her son standing there and complained: "Tell me, Xiangxing and the princess are handkerchiefs. Why did you hide it so tightly? If it hadn't been for me.

When I came here today, all my relatives didn’t even know how to move around.”

Xu Hongda was complaining in his heart, was that what he wanted to hide? He only found out about it when he personally sent Xiang Xing back to his parents' home this time. In the past, his mother always said that his studies were important and wouldn't let him come to Hedong Village. Do you regret it this time?

Fortunately, it was not too late, and Xiangxing's family was not offended. Princess Qingping gave Tianzao a slap in the face because she wanted to get along well with their family.

Miao then settled down in Hedong Village. Naturally, she lived in Xiang Xing's house. She took Xiang Xing to greet Princess Qingping every day. Lin Xiaoman did not hide his secrets and taught her how to fill egg cakes.

The business is not big, just push a small cart and you can do it.

But this business is very tedious, and it takes a whole day to do it. If the business is too busy, you will have no time to spare, and your family will be exhausted by night, and you will no longer want to embarrass others.

Lin Xiaoman wanted this result, so he spent three days teaching Miao and her two daughters-in-law how to fill egg pancakes with eggs, without hiding any secrets.

Even some of the seasonings they needed were provided to them for free, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were extremely grateful to Lin Xiaoman.

When Lin Xiaoman said that the reason why she treated them like this was because of Xiang Xing's face, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't wait to enshrine Xiang Xing as their ancestors.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finally decided to run separate businesses so that they could earn more money. Lin Xiaoman was also generous and asked a carpenter to hire a carpenter to draw the car himself and asked him to build it as soon as possible.

Go to the blacksmith shop in the city to make some iron plates for pancakes and iron cylinders for making fire.

After everything was ready, the Miao family couldn't wait to push the cart back to the county town. The man and two sons of the family were working outside. They wanted to try the cake-making business. If it was good, they would let the three of them do it.

Let’s do it together.

At first, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought that if the business was good, they would do it separately. In the first few days, they could still take care of each other together.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the cart was rolled out, someone started asking about what they were selling. I heard that Princess Qingping learned how to make pancakes, and many people wanted to try it.
