Every day I want to quit my job and farm

The first month of the first lunar month is the time to give gifts to relatives. Shen Xie prepared the gifts early and sent them to Liufeng.Needless to say, the county magistrate, the Wu family, and the Hong family, he also prepared gifts for the yamen servants and shop owners he knew.Just sending gifts from door to door, Liufeng ran away for two or three days.

The people who received the boxing gift naturally returned the gift, and Shen Hao and Qiao Ke happened to be at home with nothing to do, so they had time to sort out the gifts.Unwrapping presents is also a kind of fun, and they had a great time.Dr. Qiao felt that the two of them were naive, and they became more and more like children since they got married.

The third day of the first month.Butler Wu personally returned gifts, and Mu Jiu also brought a wedding invitation, inviting Shen Xi and Qiao Ke to the wedding banquet.

Shen Xi was surprised when he received the wedding invitation: "Wu Xi is married to the Wang family?" What happened when he was not paying attention to the county seat?

"Yes." Butler Wu replied respectfully, "The appointment has been made, and it will depend on the date. It will be in February, and Boss Shen will be honored at that time."

"Brother Wu is married, I will naturally appreciate the face." Shen Xi placed the wedding invitation on the table.After exchanging pleasantries, Liufeng sent Butler Wu out.

Qiao Ke didn't understand why Shen Yu looked so preoccupied: "Is there anything wrong with marrying the Wu family and the Wang family?"

"Of course not." Shen Wei frowned and sat down, "The Wang family is a businessman, and the Wu family is related to the county magistrate. One businessman and one official, the Wu family is more powerful. The county magistrate and the Wang family will also get countless benefits because of this relationship." benefit, and we..." would lose the benefit!

We include Shen Hao and Hong Yan, who have jointly invested in more than one business with Wu Xi.Wu Xi has a single-minded mind and doesn't like to care about every detail.So it can't be seen that the share of every business he mentioned seems to be fair on the surface, but the actual biggest benefit lies with himself and Hong Yan.In particular, Wu Xi was obviously at a disadvantage in the share of the bookstore.The Wang family is a businessman, if the members of the Wang family mention Wu Xi, they will be in big trouble.

"The Wang family doesn't necessarily care about it..." Qiao Ke figured it out and said uncertainly, "Master Wu didn't care about Young Master Wu before."

"Master Wu is not a businessman after all, even if he sees through the traps, he still wants to train Wu Xi." Shen Yu frowned, and tapped the wedding invitation on the table with his fingers, "The Wang family is different. They are serious businessmen. I heard that the Wang family only Two brothers: Elder brother is a man with mediocre talents and not good at business. The point is that the younger brother is the elder brother. He handles most of the business of the Wang family, and even Master Wang listens to him in some matters. Once such a powerful person marries Wu Xi, within a month he will be able to control Wu Xi's money."

When the members of the Wang family find out that the division is uneven, they must intervene in the business partnership with them.The last thing to offend when doing business is the officials. Once the matter is mentioned, they will be at a disadvantage.The business of peanuts, melon seeds and bookstores will grow bigger and bigger, and one achievement is to give up a lot of gold and silver.At the beginning, it may be tens of taels or hundreds of taels, and in the future it may be thousands of taels or tens of thousands of taels...

"Are we going to stop the marriage between the Wu family and the Wang family?" Qiao Ke sat next to Shen Xi and comforted him, "Is there any other way?"

"Wait and see what happens." Shen Yu hugged Qiao Ke's waist, "The most important thing now is to take good care of you, and everything else can be pushed back. Didn't Wu Xi invite us to the wedding banquet? We will go and see Look, let's explore the bottom of the Wang family by the way."

"I want to go with you." Qiao Ke firmly grasped Shen Yu's hand, "I want to be your help."

"Okay, I'll take you there then." Shen Yu smiled fondly, "I've been bored in the house these days, and at most I only walked around the village, you must be tired. Let's go to the wedding banquet to eat delicious food. Eat what you like Tell me, and I will do the research for you when I come back.”

Qiao Ke nodded, looking forward to attending the wedding banquet.Shen Xi was also looking forward to attending the wedding banquet, he wanted to see how the brother of the Wang family was doing.

Afterwards, Shen Xi sent a letter to Hongyan, explaining the current situation.There was also a wedding invitation on Hong Yan's desk, and he was invited to the Wu family's wedding.After reading Shen Xi's letter, Hong Yan's eyes shifted to the wedding invitation.Wu family and Wang family, officials and merchants...

After Shen Xi finished writing the letter to Hongyan, she put the matter behind her and stayed with Qiao Ke every day.On the contrary, Hong Yan was not idle.He used all means to inquire about the news of the brother of the Wang family. When more and more information was presented to him, the situation was not optimistic...

Could it be that they can only be beaten passively?It's not that Hong Yan never thought of disturbing the marriage of Huang's family, but when he asked Shen Xi, he got a reply of waiting and watching.He didn't know if Shen Xi had any good ideas, or if he didn't want to care about it at all.Since he waited and watched, he followed suit.

In fact, it's not that Shen Hao doesn't want to take care of this matter, he has an idea since he saw the wedding invitation.His idea is to see the trick, they can't get out of step first.Of course, it is also because he has no time to do more now, he is already passive, and he has to hold his breath.

In the blink of an eye, it was February, the day Wu Xi got married.Shen Xi and Qiao Ke had a leisurely breakfast, changed their clothes and took their congratulatory gifts and set off.Shen Xi tightened Qiao Ke's cloak, wishing he could wrap Qiao Ke into a ball.It was still very cold in February, but Qiao Ke's body is different now, and he must not be sick.

The carriage was thickly cushioned, and Joko was half sitting and half lying down.Facing Shen Xi's excessive nervousness, Qiao Ke lightly smiled: "How can you be so delicate."

"No, you can't be careless." Shen Xie's attitude was very firm, "Whenever there is a situation, you will hold my hand firmly."

Seeing the seriousness in Shen Hao's eyes, Qiao Ke nodded slightly: "Are you full of random thoughts now? Even if I move, you feel that there is danger. In fact, there is no need to be so nervous. The serious nausea has passed, and I am now very good."

Touching Qiao Ke's face with a double chin recently, Shen Hao was very satisfied.Qiao Ke was very sick at first, and he couldn't eat anything, and he didn't want to eat anything.After three or four months, the situation improved, and Qiao Ke was very able to eat now. He would eat three or four bowls at a time, several times a day.

It's better to be able to eat than not to be able to eat, Shen Xi embraces Qiao Ke in his arms.He had to take precautions and not take chances.

Qiao Ke smiled and rolled his eyes, forget it, no matter how much he said, it was useless.Just let your husband worry, otherwise you will be uneasy.

The carriage slowly entered the city and drove towards Wu's house.The Wu family had a lot of guests today, and all the respectable people in the county came.Butler Wu greeted the guests at the door, and Shen Xi helped Qiao Ke get off the carriage.Liufeng took the horse to rest in the backyard, where there is a place to store the carriage in the backyard of the Wu family.

Butler Wu greeted Shen Hao and Qiao Ke with a smile, and let them be led in.Shen Xi came to the birthday banquet once before, and helped Qiao Ke to go in.The servant led them to a relatively quiet table with a brazier still burning under the table. It should be considered that Qiao Ke was pregnant.

Shen Xi was very satisfied with the Wu family's thoughtfulness, so he sat down and ordered the servant to get some snacks.The servant backed away, and Shen Xi asked about Qiao Ke's body.

Qiao Ke smiled and shook his head: "Don't treat me like a porcelain doll that will shatter when you touch it, I'm really not that delicate."

In Shen Hao's view, a pregnant person is no different from a porcelain doll.In modern times, he was most afraid of meeting pregnant women. Every time he saw a pregnant woman busying around by herself, he was worried that something would happen.It is Qiao Ke who is pregnant now, and his heart is almost in his throat.

I knew my husband wouldn't listen.Qiao Ke sighed helplessly in his heart. He felt that he was in good health, but her husband was more nervous than him.

"I said why didn't I find you, so you are here." Hong Yan and Zhao Li walked over, and they sat down with a smile.

Zhao Li and Qiao Ke said hello, after all, a village has a lot to say.Hearing that Qiao Ke was pregnant, Zhao Li was very envious, and treated Qiao Ke more cautiously.Another one treated him like a porcelain doll, Qiao Ke smiled slightly, but was speechless in his heart.

"The brother of the Wang family is called Wang Zishun. What I found out is basically the same as the rumors." Hong Yan poured tea and handed it to Shen Xie, "Business is not easy to deal with. If there is no accident today, such a marriage will be completed. At most one month , he must take care of the business."

"Yeah." Shen Xi took a sip of tea, "It might make our relationship with Wu Xi ossified. But it's not impossible."

"Do you have a solution?" Hongyan knew that Qiao Ke couldn't drink tea, so he ordered people to serve boiled water, and then poured tea for Zhao Li and himself.

Noticing the tea pouring order of Hong Yan, Zhao Li silently took the teacup and observed Shen Xi.Shen Xi smiled: "Forget it."

The servants brought snacks and water, and Qiao Ke picked them up to taste.Feeling delicious, he feeds Shen Xi with sparkling eyes.

For Qiao Ke's feeding, Shen Xi opened his mouth and ate it without hesitation.Hong Yan really wanted to roll her eyes at the two of them: "Tell me."

"Businessman, profit is all about it." Shen Xi licked the pastry crumbs at the corner of his mouth, "If you have a profit, I'm not afraid that he will turn his face."

"Oh?" Hong Yan probably understands Shen Xi's thoughts, "Since we have an idea, shall we find out about him today?"

"It's too troublesome, isn't it good to eat snacks and drink tea?" Shen Xi took a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, it was really sweet, "Although our situation is not good, we must turn passive into active. Let him come to us, It’s better than us looking for him. It’s delicious, try it.”

Hong Yan picked up the pastry to taste, it tasted good, but too greasy.Seeing Hong Yan's expression, Shen Xi laughed loudly: "I really believe it."

"It's okay, but I don't like this kind of too sweet." Hong Yan drank a cup of tea, "What gift do you plan to give?"

"A congratulatory gift..." Squinting his eyes, Shen Xi smiled mysteriously, "I've already prepared it. It's considered... return the original."

Return the original?The three of them looked at Shen Yu in puzzlement.Shen Xi smiled meaningfully. When he got married, Wu Xi gave him a congratulatory gift. Now that Wu Xi got married, he naturally returned the things.There are quite a lot of things inside, and he didn't even change the packaging.When Wu Xi saw this congratulatory gift, he must have looked very familiar.The wicked Shen Xi really wanted to see Wu Xi's expression at that time, it must be wonderful.

"This kind of thing is fine anyway." Hong Yan was more worried about another thing, "Aren't you afraid that we will be swallowed up by the Wu family and the Wang family?"

"Don't be afraid." Shen Wei smiled confidently, "There is Liang Tutou as Optimus Prime, and Yang Guanshi, a well-connected figure. Don't underestimate the shop owners, maybe they all have backgrounds behind them. The most important thing One point, we have Liang Juren."

Liang Juren... maybe in a few months it will be Master Liang.Wu Xi's background is an official, and their background is also an official, whoever is afraid of whom!What's more, the other people who partnered with them are not easy to kill. Even if they want to turn their faces, the Wang family and Wu family have to weigh it.A ruling official and a local official are not at the same level at all, and only by being close to the center of power can they control the lifeline of others.

The hand drinking tea paused, Hong Yan couldn't believe it and looked at Shen Yu, did he think so deeply?What if Brother Liang fails the exam?

Shen Xi and Hong Yan communicate silently: Even if Brother Liang loses this time, he still has unlimited potential.Would the magistrate be so stupid as to offend a Juren who might pass the exam at any time?What's more, Mr. Hong also has a background that makes the county magistrate afraid, and he has extraordinary means...

Hong Yan frowned: When did you think of so much?They simply put the bargaining chips of both sides on the surface and compete one by one.

Squinting and smiling, Shen Xi answered silently: I have nothing to do every day, thinking wildly.After thinking about it, I naturally figured out a lot of things.
