Chapter 263 Idleness is also idleness, look what happened to the child?

 After hearing Pang's words, Mrs. Hu felt secretly ashamed: It turns out that she is too worried again! Her face turned red again.

Mrs. He clapped her hands in agreement, "In the past, before the He family was in decline, there were servants at home, as well as carriage drivers. It was only in the past two years that we lost money in business, and both adults and children suffered. Now, borrow

With Xiaoman's help, life has improved, but we can't live the hard life of the past few years. You don't have to worry about the money for hiring people, the old man and I are married."

He Gaoyu smiled, "Mom, why do we need to hire more people? Xiaoman sent several people to our family. We only have these few people in our family, so we don't need so many people to serve us. I'll ask them tomorrow who can drive the car.

, let him pick up Mingrui specially."

Old Man He disagreed, "How can a coachman only take the young master to study? During the day, Mingrui is in school, and he will send people back. In case the family needs a car for convenience, he can also do other things when he is free."

The old man's decision was approved by almost everyone. Hu wanted to say something else, but she saw that Pang had turned to Mrs. He and asked with a smile: "Mom, Qianer served a braised elbow dish at Xiao Man's wedding banquet, and I was so excited to eat it.

It's the most delicious I've ever tasted. You said I'll go ask Xiaoman tomorrow how it's made. Can Xiaoman tell me?"

Mrs. He laughed and scolded, "How could I say you are a monkey and a monkey? Who doesn't know what you have in mind? You are still making this excuse."

Pangzi laughed, "I just thought that Yue'er and Jianmu's shop is so big, it would be a pity to only sell braised meat. Now that the two elders have people around to take care of them, the daughter-in-law can take care of the child when she has nothing to do. I am at home with the child's father.

I have nothing to do all day long, and I'm afraid I'll get sick of wealth if I'm free again. We can't run a shop that's too big, but I still have cooking skills, so it's a waste if I don't use it. Let's see if I can use it at Yue'er's place.

Set up a small tavern in a shop. When there are customers who like to drink, we can buy some wine here, cook two dishes, and buy some braised food from Yue'er to go with the wine. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

As she said that, Pang looked at Chu Jianmu. Although he was her son-in-law, she still had to see what Chu Jianmu meant in order for her daughter and son-in-law not to fight. Who told this son-in-law to be too careful? If he didn't want to, she would.

If you don't want to offend that person, the worst possible outcome is to get a small cart from the villa, cook a few dishes and sell them every day.

Chu Jianmu's eyes lit up when he heard this, "My mother-in-law has a good idea. Our store is too big anyway, and we can't use half of the place to sell braised food. The remaining half will be wasted. If my mother-in-law

If you want to use it, I'll just get some screens to separate it."

When he heard what he said, Pangzi was so happy that he frowned, "Sure, I'm relieved by Jianmu's words. Tomorrow I'll go to Xiaoman to learn some snacks to go with the wine. Once I learn how, I'll join your dad."

Past."

"Hmm, when I go shopping tomorrow, I'll find someone to make a few custom-made screens."

"Mom is going to sell food. I will decide the menu then and I will write it."

He Mingrui also happily watched his family discussing business matters.

The family is living in harmony, except Mrs. Hu, who looks at her mother-in-law from time to time, and then at her eldest aunt's family. She always feels that everyone treats her eldest aunt's family better than theirs.

Just like what my mother-in-law said just now, it’s okay for her to take care of her own children. If she brings two children to her aunt’s house, her mother-in-law can only say that she has nothing to do to take care of the children.

But she not only has to take care of the three meals a day at home, but she also has to prepare soft food for the children. Now one has pooped, and another has peed again. The servant sent by her cousin was originally supposed to help, but her mother-in-law

One sentence: "People from the countryside are not so delicate, so why do they need to be waited on for everything?" The reason was dismissed.

Seeing that her eldest aunt's family's business was booming, she regretted that she should not have rented out the shop because there was no one at home to help her.

Instead of staying at home and serving the whole family all day long and being so tired that no one cares about her backache and being said to be idle, she would rather work hard to open the shop and use all her energy on the shop.

Returning to the room after dinner, He Mingrui saw Mr. Hu sitting by the bed as soon as he entered the room, holding his son's clothes in his hand in a daze, and casually asked: "What are you thinking about?"

Mrs. Hu shook her head, half-shaked and threw the small clothes on the bed, "Mr. Hu, do you think it was wrong for us to rent out the shop?"

He Mingrui smiled, "What's wrong with this? I'm not a business person. I still have to study, and you have to take care of your children and home. Who has time to manage the shop? I can get more than 300 taels a year in rent, which is better than leaving it alone.

It’s better to lose money in your hand.”

Originally, Mrs. Hu rented out her shop and earned more than three hundred taels of silver a year. She couldn't believe that she was now a rich man, and she was very happy for two days.

But after tonight, she heard what her sister, brother-in-law and her husband said today, that they earned more than five taels of silver in one day, and what her mother-in-law said, she felt a little uncomfortable.

Five taels of silver a day is more than a hundred taels a month. Doesn’t it mean that the rent of the shop can be earned back in more than two months?

Listening to the meaning of He Mingrui's words again, it's okay that he has no time to manage the shop because he is studying. Why should she take care of the children and household matters? She just gave birth to a son, why did she even take care of her sister and brother-in-law's two children?

Let her take care of them? Then they can go about their business and make money with peace of mind.

The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt. Mrs. Hu bit her lip and said after a while: "There are servants at home, and my grandparents and parents are also strong. I let the children spend more time with them on weekdays. Our shop is big, and I am the only one."

I'm too busy, so I'll talk to my cousin tomorrow and ask her to help me see if I can rent a smaller shop. I also want to do business."

He Mingrui frowned in displeasure when he heard this, but seeing Hu's rare strength, he still persuaded her nicely: "How can there be any reason to leave your child to your grandparents? You are the eldest daughter-in-law of this family, so you should

You should shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the family and be filial to your grandparents. Now you can get more than three hundred taels of silver a year in rent, what else do you feel dissatisfied about?"

After hearing what he said, Mrs. Hu was not persuaded, but felt even more aggrieved. However, she had always been clumsy and had a temperament that would show her little thoughts on her face. She always felt that He Mingrui should understand her, but He Mingrui's attitude made her feel uncomfortable.

She felt increasingly uncomfortable.

The more uncomfortable I became, the less I knew what to say, so I couldn't help but cry.

He Mingrui was annoyed by her crying and tried to persuade her. Seeing that she was crying more and more, he simply went out to the study.

He didn't know how this daughter-in-law became like this. At first, he only thought that she was timid and pitiful, but he forgot that she was a daughter raised by a small family. She was just too petty.
