I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

The ox cart carrying the betrothal gifts returned in the afternoon.

Before they came back, the relatives who came to help had already prepared the food and were just waiting for the person who delivered the betrothal gifts to come back and start eating.

The Shen family only prepared some home-cooked dishes this time, but the portions were large and included a lot of meat, so no one at the table was dissatisfied with the food.

"Dong Ting, I toast you with this glass of wine. When you become rich in the future, don't forget me, your brother."

"Yes! We grew up together playing in the mud. If anything good happens, remember to call me!"

"Hehe... I never thought that among so many of us, Dong Ting is still the lucky one! He actually married a city girl."

"That's right. We saw it this morning. Dong Ting's father-in-law's shop is quite big!"

At the dinner table, a group of young people who had gone to the county to deliver betrothal gifts talked about their experiences in the county.

Among them, what everyone talked about most was envy of Shen Dongting's blessing.

Shen Dongting was congratulated by the villagers for a whole day and praised by a group of peers of similar age for most of the day. Finally, he regained his original cheerful spirit.

After everyone finished their meal, it was getting dark.

Shen Rong said hello to her mother and prepared to take Changsheng back, but Lu stopped them.

"Sanniang, you guys should go back later. Your sister-in-law and the others just said they have something to talk to you about. You and Changsheng should stay at home tonight. I'll ask Dongting to run a trip later."

Shen Rong thought that her two sisters-in-law might be looking for her for business matters, so she agreed.

By the time the people who were having dinner at home left, it was already so dark that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

In the boudoir where Shen Rong lived before she got married, Li Fenglian and Ma Xiuxiu sat at the table, one holding an account book and an abacus, and the other holding a wooden box as wide as a ruler, talking to Shen Rong about the business of the shop in recent months.

"Sanniang, your idea is the best. Since we added steamed buns to the shop, we have sold much more braised pork than before."

I don’t know if it’s because she’s in high spirits due to happy events, or because she’s wearing new clothes, but she looks particularly energetic as she sits at the table, as if she had eaten some tonic food.

"Also, the weather is getting colder, and I followed your advice and provided customers with soup made with marinated broth. Once the hot broth was served, many more customers came into the store than before."

"All the accounts are here. If you don't understand anything, Sanniang can just ask your sister-in-law." Ma Xiuxiu confidently placed the account book in front of Shen Rong.

Shen Rong opened the account book and looked at it for a long time, but she couldn't understand the words inside. However, she could barely make out the words "one, two, three, four, five".

"Second sister-in-law, it's OK as long as you check the accounts. You've opened the shop for a few months, and the business has gradually stabilized. You can handle the business matters. If there are any problems that cannot be solved, we can discuss them together." Shen Rong said as she closed the account book and handed it to the second sister-in-law again.

Ma Xiuxiu is considered to be a studious person.

When Ma Xiuxiu's sister learned that Ma Xiuxiu was going to do business with her sister-in-law and sister-in-law, she specially taught her how to write and keep accounts.

Ma Xiuxiu had never been to school, and the few words she hastily learned from her sister became incomplete after passing through her hands.

She kept accounts for several months before she could barely write out some of the common words.

When Li Fenglian was helping her sister-in-law keep accounts, she also managed to recognize a few words and is no longer illiterate.

Ma Xiuxiu felt so happy when she saw Shen Rong's trust in her.

"Sanniang, we have been able to sell about 144 kilograms of braised meat every day in the past three months. Each kilogram of braised meat is between and coins. We have made a total of... taels of silver in the past few months. Excluding the cost of taels of pork, spices and firewood these days, the remaining amount is taels of silver."

"So many!" Li Fenglian exclaimed and subconsciously looked at the wooden box in front of her.

Why didn't she realize just now that there was so much silver in here?

Li Fenglian's hands tightened subconsciously.

Although she knew there was a lot of money in the account, she didn't expect it to be so much.

Li Fenglian felt that if she didn't go out and just focused on making a living in the village, she would never be able to earn that much money in her entire life.

"Yes! I didn't expect that we would make so much money in just a few months." Ma Xiuxiu exclaimed.

"Let's divide the money!" Li Fenglian suggested.

"You can divide the money, but you have to keep some for emergencies." What Ma Xiuxiu said made sense. The shop would have to continue running in the future, so you can't not even keep the money for purchasing pork, right?

Leave two hundred taels for emergency.

The remaining 376 taels of silver were divided according to their respective proportions.

Shen Rong took 20% of the shop's profits and received 75 taels and 2 cents of silver.

The other two sisters-in-law each received 40%, totaling 150 taels and 4 cents of silver each.

The two sisters-in-law looked at the pile of silver in front of them and felt like they were dreaming.

When they opened the shop, the money they used was all their own private money, not money from their family. According to the rules of the Shen family, they did not have to give the money to their parents and could keep it in their own hands.

After taking the silver, they talked for a long time, until late at night, and the two sisters-in-law were still unable to sleep.

Here, Shen Dongting and Changsheng were in the same room, lying on the bed. The oil lamp in the room was still on. They both stared at the ceiling above, and no one spoke.

Shen Dongting was looking at the rooftops, feeling bored, when he suddenly heard someone beside him mutter, "You bullied Sanniang, Sanniang is unhappy..."

Shen Dongting was stunned and turned to look at Changsheng, only to see that Changsheng was just like he was before, staring blankly at the dark roof above, as if the person who had just spoken was not him.

In Shen Dongting's impression, Changsheng never took the initiative to talk to others. Just when he suspected that he had heard wrongly, Changsheng said in a somewhat fierce tone: "You bully Sanniang, I will beat you!"

Before Shen Dongting could say anything, he heard Changsheng's tone suddenly soften, as if he was unwilling to accept it, "Sanniang asked Changsheng to beat his brother out of anger..."

Shen Dongting's face flushed as he thought of that day, "My sister...she...what did she say to you?"

Changsheng ignored Shen Dongting's words, and just continued to stare at the roof, muttering to himself: "I know that asking me to hit Dongting is just an angry statement, and scolding Dongting is also an angry statement, hitting is love and scolding is love..."

Changsheng thought of something, turned his head and glared at Shen Dongting beside him, "Humph, you are bad!"

Shen Dongting thought Changsheng was quite interesting. He turned sideways, facing Changsheng, and said, "You said I was bad, what was wrong with me?"

Changsheng was stunned, thinking back to Shen Rong's nagging that day, "You have a wife but you don't recognize her, you are an ungrateful person..."
