Chapter 203
In the end, Fan compromised.
She went to Chu Yuyuan.
Ji Wan is checking the accounts. The business of the hot pot restaurant has always been stable. In the past two years, nearly 40,000 yuan was collected. Excluding store decoration, labor costs, and net profits are also nearly 30,000 yuan.
The business of the dim sum shop is getting better and better.
This development momentum is very good.
After the sewing machine factory was completed, she had taught the skills of the workers and personally supervised and guided every link. Now that the workers have already made perfect sense, she doesn't have to supervise them often, Lu Feili just needs to send troops to guard them.
She didn't need to worry about the gift-giving in the mansion, so she had more time to manage her business.
"Go and invite the Sixth Girl to come. I have something important to discuss with her."
"yes."
Xiang Fan took the order.
Then the maid came to report that the second young lady was here.
Ji Wan smiled and said to Zeng Ting: "Remove all these, please ask your second sister-in-law to come in and talk."
Fan was the eldest son, Ji Wan walked to the door and greeted her with a smile.
"My second sister-in-law has arrived and she is in a position to welcome her. I hope she will forgive her."
She was in her yard and dealing with her private affairs. She was not a foreigner, so she never changed her clothes. She was still wearing a plain dress and did not wear expensive jewelry on her head. She looked very simple and elegant. But she was naturally beautiful, and her plain clothes and light makeup still did not hide her beauty.
The second young lady saw it, but that was not the case.
She came here with resentment. Ji Wan's smiling face met her, which made her look ridiculed and contemptuous. She did not put on her clothes and dress up, which made her even more negligent and disrespectful to her.
"How can I do it? The third brother and sister-in-law are the future wife of the Duke and the mistress of the house. My sister-in-law and I will rely on you in the future. How dare I blame it?"
By the time Ji Wan became the mistress of the family, the Lu family had already separated. Under the same roof as Ji Wan, only the future Mrs. Jiu.
Fan's implication was quite dissatisfied with Ji Wan.
The servants of Chu Yuyuan were all displeased.
Ji Wan's expression was as usual and asked her to come in and sit in politely.
"My sister-in-law is the chief, and I should have gone to see you, but I have been there for less than a month. There are many people in the mansion and are not yet fully familiar with you. I also heard that my second sister-in-law likes quietness and dare not disturb her rashly. It's better not to be weird."
Fan smiled and said, "The third brother and sister will help my aunt manage the gifts in the future. I believe they have a lot of daily internal affairs, so where can I have the time to talk to my sister-in-law? We are all brides, and the wife of the head in the courtyard should not be careless even if they are to rectify the internal and external subordinates. What's more, the third brother and sister have to worry about their own industries, and they are afraid they are busy every day. It's a pity that I can't help my third brother and sister share the worries."
"My second sister-in-law is so serious."
Ji Wan smiled, "My second sister-in-law is the daughter of the general. She is brave and has a battlefield style. My younger sister admires her very much. It's a pity that I can't learn a little bit, and I feel deeply sorry."
The second young lady heard it harshly, thinking that she was mocking herself, and her face became ugly.
"Why should the third brother and sister be so humble? Although you are a young man, you have been granted the title twice by the emperor. I don't know how many noble girls you envied. Now you have become a wife in the public, and your third brother will inherit the title in the future, so you can ask for an imperial edict for you. With you now as a county magistrate, you are at least a second-rank woman. There are not many powerful and noble women in the Manchu capital and aristocratic families who have such honors. Although my sister-in-law and I are famous families and sister-in-law, we are still hard to achieve the achievements of our third brother and sister."
Anyone can hear the sarcasm and resentment in this sentence.
Ji Wan still did not change her appearance, "The two brothers are now imperial guards. He has made great achievements in the dynasty and should be the wife."
The second young lady pursed her lips and said nothing.
She was not a snob. At first, she loved Lu Erlang at first sight, and valued him as a person, not the Lu family. In the future, Lu Erlang's achievements were of no concern. Since ancient times, there was a difference between old and young, and the illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate illegitimate ill
But as both the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, she and her sister-in-law both came from famous families. As the future hostess of the Duke's Mansion, at least they should be from everyone's background to convince the public.
Who knew that the Lu family had hired a woman from a common countryside as a wife. She and her sister-in-law, who had to rely on the breath of a peasant girl, could she be willing to do so?
Before Ji Wan passed the door, she sent someone to inquire.
A rural woman remarried into the Xiao Mansion with her mother, but she still couldn't change her body and made a business move, which was completely degenerate.
If there is such a girl, her mother, Zhou, must behave inappropriately, otherwise how could she remarry others with her children?
Damn it, it's just beauty.
He serves the king with his beauty like a prostitute. He dares to show off his power in front of her, which is even more shameless!
Sitting with these people, the second young lady felt that she had reduced her value, so she stood up and said condescendingly: "I hate talking around the corners of the world. I believe you know what I am today, so I won't go around with you. Please tell me how much is the bonsai gold and silver? I will repay you at the price to avoid others' words, saying that I am bullying the small ones and being unable to get along with you, the bride."
She didn't want to be as famous as a fox-like person like Ji Wan, so she wouldn't be too flirted with.
Her disgust was so obvious that anyone with eyes could see it.
Zeng Ting and Xiang Fan and others all looked angry.
It was obvious that the second young lady was full of her own pockets and tried to give herself the public a pleasure. If the matter was exposed, she should be humble and seek a way to remedy her, but she was so arrogant and looked down upon, which was so bullying.
Ji Wan raised her eyebrows.
When Fan's visit today means compromise. He is all sisters-in-law, and his second aunt must have punished him. She doesn't want to make things difficult for Fan if she doesn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. But Fan's attitude is really not very good.
She smiled, "Second sister-in-law is so serious, just over 10,000 taels of silver. Although my younger sister is not talented, she can still take advantage of it. Why do you need the second sister-in-law to spend money?"
Fan suddenly changed color.
Although she comes from a famous family, her family is not very rich. Although the dowry shop industry is more than ten thousand taels, it only takes an investment every quarter. Moreover, it adds up to ten thousand taels. Now the silver she can move is less than three hundred, otherwise why should she get the idea of hitting her husband?
But the words have been said, if you can't take them out or temporarily pay credit, you will have a face in front of Ji Wan.
It was clearly her provocation first, but now seeing Ji Wan's smile, she felt that this woman was deliberately asking her to make a fool of herself.
Fan gritted his teeth, "You said too, but it's just over 10,000 taels. If the third brother and sister don't see it, I will not be stingy. Please wait a moment, before dusk, I will serve it with both hands and never owe it."
She flicked her sleeves and said, "Go."
The two maids looked panicked, but they did not dare to refute what she said, and hurriedly followed.
"Mrs. Young Madam, I look at the Second Young Madam and hate you."
Xiang Fan whispered.
Zeng Ting snorted softly, "Our young lady has never provoked her at all, but she wants to come to find fault with her. Her words are sharp and unbearable. Even if it is a feud, it is not the young lady's fault."
Ji Wan didn't say anything, her eyes were dim and unpredictable.
When a noble girl in the capital gets married, the maximum dowry can not exceed 10,000 taels. Of course, those are written on the gift list. In addition, parents and elders can also add them privately.
For a family like the Fan family, the total dowry and silver will definitely not exceed 5,000, so they are short of money and have their ideas on Zhonggong.
Now that she wants to fight for this, she can't afford to pay, she is afraid she will have to go back to her parents' home to fight Qiufeng.
