Before dinner, Dong Jialin told his family about his intention to take over the bookstore.

After hearing this, Xu Yiwan said worriedly: "You have never been involved in business since you have grown up. You have never even touched the family account book. Now you suddenly want to open a bookstore. Can you do it?"

"I can learn all of these, Butler Sun can teach me." Dong Jialin didn't think this was a problem.

Dong Jingtang also frowned, "This is not children's play, you are not allowed to mess around."

"Why is this nonsense?" Dong Jialin felt aggrieved, "Father, mother, I am serious."

"I think since the second brother wants to do it, let him do it. No one is born to do business." Dong Jiabao said.

"Thank you, brother." Dong Jialin was very grateful for the trust he received at this time.

Dong Jiafu also spoke out to support him, "Father, mother, I also think we can let the second brother try it. The bookstore is no different from other businesses. The risk is relatively small, but it can make people get exercise."

Dong Jialin nodded when he heard this, "Afu is right, I will definitely run it seriously, and I also want to accomplish something."

Dong Jingtang looked at the three siblings with relief in his eyes.

"When you grow up, it's time to go out and make a living. I will support you this time. Just ask your mother for the money you need."

"Thank you dad, thank you mom, my son will not let you down!" Dong Jialin stood up excitedly.

"I want to make it clear to you," Dong Jingtang said seriously, "When you work outside, no matter whether you do well or not in the future, you are not allowed to use your status as the son of Zuo Fudu Censor. You must do your duty and be down-to-earth. Understand?"

Dong Jialin responded: "My son understands. Don't worry, father, I didn't

Plan to take advantage of your official authority. If I use it, if I succeed in it later, others will think that I have benefited from you; if I fail, I will lose your face. "

"As long as you know."

Xu Yiwan was still reluctant to give up, "Doing business will be very hard, why do you have to suffer that pain?"

"Mom, what can you do if you want to succeed without hardship? My eldest brother has locked himself in his room to study day and night in order to be able to go to high school. Isn't it tough for him?"

Dong Jialin paused and then said: "Besides, I can spend three years in Mobei, what hardships can't I endure?"

Dong Jingtang patted the back of Xu Yiwan's hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Boys have nothing to worry about. If you want to become a talent, you have to withstand hardship."

"Yes, mother, I will also help second brother come up with ideas." Dong Jiafu said with relief.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yiwan said: "How can any girl do business?"

Dong Jialin couldn't help but said: "Mom, don't underestimate Afu, she is a good writer of good stories, and one book can be sold for fifty taels of silver. This is one of the reasons why I want to take over the bookstore."

The three of them were more surprised when they heard this than when they heard that Dong Jialin wanted to do business.

"Afu, is what your second brother said true? You can write storybooks and still make so much money?" Xu Yiwan couldn't believe it. Ahfu had never read those messy storybooks before. Why now? Did you even write it yourself?

Dong Jiafu nodded slightly, "Yes, mother. At that time, I was looking for some ways to make money in Linqing County, so I tried to write two books."

Dong Jiabao praised: "Although many literati look down on those who write popular Chinese scripts, I feel that it is not easy to write a good script. A script with profound ideas can also be done.

enough to influence one person. Afu, well done. "

"Thank you, brother," Dong Jiafu blushed slightly after being praised, "I didn't think too much about it."

Xu Yiwan couldn't help but blush when she learned the reason, "It was not easy for my Afu to live alone outside..."

"Okay, we didn't say we didn't want to forget about that period of time. Why are you sad again?"

After Dong Jingtang comforted Xu Yiwan, he raised his head and said to Dong Jialin and Dong Jiafu: "You two brothers and sisters support each other, and your mother and I are very happy. Just go ahead and do it. It doesn't matter if you can't do it. Just try your best."

"Dad, I haven't even started yet, and you're badmouthing me. Can't you expect me to do better?" Dong Jialin was dissatisfied.

Xu Yiwan burst into tears and smiled, "Okay, okay, then we wish you a prosperous business -"

"It's almost there."

"Okay, after talking for so long, it's time to eat." Dong Jingtang picked up the chopsticks.

In the dead of night, people are quiet, except for singing and dancing in Baihua Tower.

Qing Yan poured a glass of wine for Lu Siheng across from him, and before putting down the bottle, she saw him pick up the glass and drink it all in one gulp.

"Since all the people that the young master cares about are back, why are the young master still depressed and come to my place to drink to drown his sorrows?"

Lu Siheng sat crookedly on the couch, turning the empty wine glass in his hand, "She is back, but not as I expected. She is now a girl from an official family, with her parents and brothers by her side. It can be seen that she is very happy. I might be a nuisance to her."

"So the young master is giving up?" Qing Yan lowered her eyes and slowly filled the wine glass for him.

Lu Siheng shook his head, "I don't know, I'm afraid I can't give her a better life than she has now..."

"My lord, you are overthinking. You are the son of Marquis Zhongjing.

, is also the deputy commander of the expert department. He is receiving divine favor and has a bright future. Even if Miss Dong is now an official woman, you are still worthy of her, so there is no need to belittle yourself. "

Qing Yan chuckled, "You are not like the usual high-spirited, carefree and carefree Mr. Lu."

"Other people don't know it, but you know it. That's just what I want to be, not all of me. In fact, I care about a lot of things, and I can't be as free and easy as you said. I'm worried that she will be more likely to be like this. Won’t like it.”

Qingyan was silent for a moment, "How will you know if you don't try, Master? If you miss Miss Dong because of your concerns, won't Master regret it in the future?"

Lu Siheng smiled bitterly, "You don't have to wait for the future. I will regret it just thinking about it now."

"Then the young master has already had the answer in his heart, so why do you need to drink in my place?" Qing Yan joked, "Miss Dong was born with a beautiful face, and now she has a noble status. If the young master is hesitant again, she is afraid that It’s about becoming someone else’s.”

After her reminder, Lu Siheng suddenly remembered Feng Jiyuan who had followed him to the capital. The examination was obviously still more than half a year away, but he came running over at this moment. It was obvious that he was not interested in drinking, and he was looking at Jia Fu.

And that Cui Qiyan, as far as he knows, has also been looking for the whereabouts of Jia Fu. At this time, he already had the upper hand. It was only a matter of time before Cui Qiyan found out about Jiafu. He could no longer be depressed and had to take advantage of this time to do something.

Thinking of this, Lu Siheng no longer cared about drinking, and quickly stood up from the couch, straightened his clothes, and turned around and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I know what to do.

"

Qing Yan looked at his hurried away figure and whispered: "As long as the young master is happy..."
