Seeing that Aunt Liu was getting angry, Chu Qian on the side said kindly: "Forget it, Ying'er, don't embarrass mother. This matter involves Caogang. Even grandma can't stop it, so how can mother say anything?"
What about the words? You also know that grandma always loves her elder brother the most."
After hearing the last sentence, Chu Ying collapsed completely.
Yes, even the old lady didn't stop it, the matter must be serious.
Although she was reckless, she was not crazy enough to make trouble in front of the old lady, so she calmed down.
"It's all because of the Spring Equinox at that time. If she hadn't offended the Caobang, how could things develop like this?" Chu Ying wiped away her tears and gritted her teeth with hatred, "A woman like her is not worthy of being our sister-in-law!"
"That's enough!" Aunt Liu interrupted angrily: "Do you care whether they are worthy or not? If you hadn't caused so many troubles, how could we, mother and daughter, be walking on thin ice in the Chu family? Don't forget that your mother will take you from Liu.
When Zhuang brought me back, what did you promise me? If you lose control over your elder brother again, I will treat you as my daughter!"
Hearing this, Chu Ying shivered in fright, and her face returned to a cowardly posture, "I...I know."
Seeing that she was frightened, Chu Qian consoled her: "Ying'er, actually, you should be happy that your eldest brother is trapped. Since my sister-in-law came in, all the problems she encountered were solved by her eldest brother. Now,
The eldest brother is temporarily detained. If she encounters problems again, no one will be able to help her. Then we will just have to wait for her to make a fool of herself."
Chu Ying's eyes lit up, she glanced at Aunt Liu cautiously, and nodded timidly, "Yes, just wait."
Aunt Liu snorted and pretended not to see the twinkle in their eyes.

Naturally, Shi Chunfen didn't know anything about what was happening in each room. She had no informants in the Chu family, and she had no comrades who would help her to control the situation. And she really had no interest in taking care of the affairs of other rooms. At this moment, she only had
One thing is to make Jiuku Tea House a success.
Last night, she spent the whole night drawing out the decoration of the Jiuku Tea House and handed it into Lang Hao's hands, instructing him to finish the decoration of the tea house as soon as possible.
In addition, she also inquired about Chu Ling's other businesses to see if there was anything she needed help with.
Lang Hao knew everything, and he directly handed her a thick booklet, which recorded all the shops in Chu Ling's hands, those that were in operation and those that were not in operation, the shop's clerks, their locations, and their annual profits.
, saying that if she is free, she can go out for inspection at any time. Anyway, these businesses will be hers sooner or later.
The pressure of the spring equinox was not that great at first. When he touched a book that was thicker than the "Four Books", his whole expression became unbearable. Chu Lingcai was so old and he already had so many shops on his hands, and the locations were not only
In Liuzhou, Huating, Huaiyang, Bashu, and even Kyoto, his business was everywhere in the Zhao Kingdom. Even for him alone, it is no wonder that the huge Chu family has been able to maintain the position of the richest man in Liuzhou for so many years.
Although he was extremely shocked, he felt relieved at the same time. No wonder Chu Ling said that even if Jiuku Tea House suffered a loss, it would be fine. With the property in his hands, he really did not take a small tea house seriously.
But thinking this way, Shi Chunfen still hoped that she could take on the responsibility of the eldest mistress of the Chu family, so she briefly flipped through the book in the morning, and planned to go out to visit a few stores in the afternoon, and collect business experience from the shopkeepers of each store.
When she was going out, Yu Abao happened to come and said he wanted to talk to her about running a boat. The two hit it off and got into the carriage together.
In just one night, there were several cane marks on Yu Abao's face. Apparently, he was beaten by his aunt with a cane last night and he still hasn't calmed down yet.
Seeing him like this, Yu Atu couldn't hide his worry, "Second brother, are you okay? Did your mother beat you?"
Yu Abao tugged at his lips and forced a smile, "It's okay. I'm thick-skinned. Are you afraid of her hitting me?"
As he said that, he looked at Shi Chunfen and said awkwardly: "Um...cousin, we are a family, so I won't go around in circles with you. It doesn't matter if my parents agree or not, I don't want to miss the boat trip, so this is
I came here this time to ask you to inform the eldest son that as long as he agrees, I can board the ship at any time."
Shi Chunfen frowned, "You want to kill first and then show off?"
Yu Abao sighed, "That's all we can do."
He originally thought that even if Shi Cui refused, Yu Dayong would support him. Unexpectedly, although Yu Dayong was greedy for money, he was also afraid that something would happen to him at sea, so he was rare to unite with Shi Cui, and he was not allowed to do this.
It was a dangerous business, so he changed his mind and decided to burn the boat.
After hearing what he said, Shi Chunfen quickly shook her head, "No, this matter is of great importance. I can't make any decisions without the permission of my aunt and uncle."
Although she trusts the Chu family's boat, there is always a chance in everything. If something happens to Yu Abao due to her selfishness, not to mention her aunt and others will not forgive her, and even she herself will find it difficult to face herself.
.
Yu Abao's face froze, he pulled the corners of his lips in frustration, and laughed at himself: "That's right, I've already caused you too much trouble."
Seeing him slumped, Yu Atu immediately comforted him, "Second brother, don't be like this. My cousin didn't say I won't help you. All you need to do is persuade your parents."
"Persuade my parents?" Yu Abao sneered, "How is that possible? They have determined that I will never come back when I go to sea, and no amount of persuasion is of any use!"
Yu Atu rolled his eyes and quickly came up with an idea, "Who says it's useless? As long as you let them know that if you are not allowed to go to sea, your life will be worse than death. I don't believe that they will still refuse to let you go."
Yu Abao gradually calmed down and narrowed his eyes on the spot, "You mean... a cruel trick?"
Yu Atu nodded quickly, "I believe that as long as you are determined enough, no one can stop you."
Shi Chunfen listened silently to the two of them plotting. On the one hand, he was somewhat envious of their courage to move forward. On the other hand, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. In terms of impulsiveness and recklessness, no one in the entire Yu family could compare to Yu Atu. Why did she suddenly
Suddenly changed gender?
As if aware of her gaze, Yu Atu turned to look at her, "By the way, cousin, what do you think?"
Shi Chunfen came back to his senses and smiled at them calmly, "I don't know my aunt and uncle's temperament, so it's hard for me to give you any advice."
If you give poor advice, you will get into trouble later.
Although they are a family, Shi Chunfen is still a lot more cautious, probably because she has been tricked by so-called family members over and over again in the Chu family, and it is difficult for her to trust others without reservation.
