Kuai Chuan's brother is the real boss

Jiang Yan mentioned a range, but Chen Shao was still unable to accurately find Wang Xifeng from it.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you can study hard, it's a good thing. It doesn't matter which girl he likes. When he takes the initiative to marry me, I will propose a marriage. It doesn't matter if it is from a high-ranking family or a small family, as long as Chen Ling likes it." , the other girl's family is also willing, I have nothing to say."

Chen Shao was very bold and drank all the tea in the cup, Jiang Yan didn't say much, anyway, Wang Xifeng is still young, so what step Chen Ling can make, whether he can win Wang Xifeng's heart, depends on his own ability up.

He will not do anything to stop him, but he will never help either. Although Wang Xifeng is only 14 years old now, she has been managing the shop since a few years ago. to judge.

Of course, if because she was too young to understand the relationship between men and women, no matter what Chen Ling did, she would not be enlightened, then Chen Ling could only be considered unlucky.

In Jinling, Wang Xifeng just participated in a poetry meeting attended by ladies from aristocratic families. Most of the meeting were unmarried women from Yunying, and those who were married did not attend. It is said that they were too busy to spare.

"How many things can the housekeeper do? Doesn't the daily housekeeper let you out to relax? In my opinion, the in-law's house is strictly not allowed to go out."

Wang Xifeng leaned on the soft couch, which gave her a reason not to marry a wealthy family. There are too many rules. Although their family is also a family, but her father doesn't care about things, her mother eats fast and chant Buddha, and her second brother doesn't leave the hospital. , As for her elder brother, he would never force her in anything, so she didn't feel too restrained.

Ping'er brought over a bowl of milk tea and said with a smile: "Miss thinks that the rich and powerful families have many rules, but they don't know that ordinary people are suffering. They are short of food and clothing, and work hard to make ends meet every day. There are no rules. That's because You have to get busy to eat, and you can't take care of those red tapes."

Wang Xifeng sipped milk tea and blinked, "I didn't say I wanted to marry into a poor family. Is it possible that in this world, except for the children of aristocratic families, are people who have nothing to eat? Besides, I still have a dowry." , can never be used up in a lifetime.”

"My girl, do you know how unprogressive it is for a man to use his wife's dowry, but any bloody man would never do that." Although Ping'er is about the same age as Wang Xifeng, the child of a poor family has long been in charge of the family. , saw a lot of things, and knew much more about these things than Wang Xifeng.

"So, I just want to marry a man who is not so poor, a bloody man. This kind of man should not be difficult to find."

As Wang Xifeng said, seeing that Ping'er was still talking, he poured a spoonful of milk tea into her mouth, "Okay, it's still early anyway, you go and help me tidy up the bookcases, Mr. Cheng asked me to copy them before." I finally finished copying the book, you have to put it in for me, if you forget to bring it tomorrow, it will be a waste of work."

"Okay, I'll go now." Ping'er knows that Wang Xifeng is more knowledgeable than she is, and has traveled to many places with Jiang Yan these years, and there are many things she doesn't need to talk about. Well, thus putting yourself behind bars.

Early the next morning, Wang Xifeng came to the private school very early. Now she doesn't have to come every day, it's been about ten days in a month. After coming, she didn't go to the school, and went directly to the courtyard where Mr. Cheng lived.

Hand over the copied book to him, and wait for his review, "Sir, read it carefully, I wrote it word by word by myself, there is absolutely no fake hand."

"Chen Ling, the only one who can help you copy books, has already started to concentrate on studying and preparing for the exam next year. Even if you want to make a fake hand, no one can help you." Mr. Cheng ruthlessly pointed out Wang Xifeng's current situation.

"Mr. Mingjian, whenever my husband punished me for copying, I wrote it by myself. I didn't ask Chen Ling to help me, really." Wang Xifeng quickly explained, but she didn't believe her explanation, let alone Mr. Cheng. up.

After teaching these students for so many years, he has long been familiar with the handwriting of these people. No matter how imitated, he still has his own habit of writing.

"Okay, let's save this kind of determination to talk to your brother, go to the school and sit down, and wait for the class."

"Oh, then I'll go first." Wang Xifeng saluted and left the room to go to the main room of the school.

She did want to ask Chen Ling for help before, but since Chen Ling came back from the capital, she has been staying behind closed doors, and she can't go directly to the Chen family to find him.

So I had to write it by myself. After several nights of writing, my eyes were red.

Wang Xifeng thought that she would have the opportunity to meet Chen Ling after arriving at the private school, and asked him what he was up to recently, but unexpectedly, Chen Ling did not come, and he still did not come for several days.

In the blink of an eye, it was Mid-Autumn Festival, Wang Xifeng and Li Ci prepared gift lists for each family, and arranged all the decorations at home.

Looking at the red lanterns hanging on the porch and the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the courtyard, Wang Xifeng unconsciously remembered that during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, she and her brother watched the moon on the Qinhuai River and admired the beautiful scenery on both sides.

It looks like I won't be able to see my brother this year, and I definitely won't be able to go to Qinhuai River. I can only have a family meal together, which is considered a holiday. Apart from these arrangements, there is no atmosphere at all.

"Ping'er, let people go out and buy some fireworks later, and then go buy some delicious food, and buy some crabs, and come back to watch the moon with you on the Mid-Autumn Festival night after eating with your parents and brothers." fireworks."

Wang Xifeng decided to have fun for herself, that's what her elder brother ordered people to do, and she followed suit.

"You don't need to buy fireworks. There were two large boxes of fireworks among the presents sent by the Chen family yesterday. Madam ordered them to be delivered to the girl. I forgot to mention it when I was done with work. Just buy some food that the girl likes." Ping said with a smile.

Wang Xifeng nodded, Chen Ling probably sent it to her because she knew she liked to play, "You don't have to buy only what I like, you can also buy some of what you like."

"I know the girl, I will arrange it, and I will make sure that the girl is satisfied."

With Ping'er's words, Wang Xifeng felt relieved, Ping'er was not the oldest maid in her yard, but she was the most reliable, and she didn't have to worry about anything with Ping'er.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival of reunion, but at this time, the members of the Wang family don't think there is anything special about this festival. It's just that the family entered the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors, and then had a meal together.

There are reasons why they are together every day and have never been apart, and there are also reasons why their relationship is not close.

As the current head of their family, Wang Zisheng just ate a few bites casually during the reunion dinner, and left after saying a few auspicious words. Without thinking about it, he knew which concubine room he had promised to go to where they had a reunion. up.

Wang Zisheng left the banquet, and Li Ci didn't have the desire to continue eating. Most of the dishes today were meaty, and she had no interest in meat dishes all the year round. She thought that Wang Zisheng made a lot for him because of his appetite. Didn't eat a few mouthfuls.

Seeing that Li Ci didn't eat, Wang Xifeng was about to propose to send her back to rest, but before she could say anything, someone ran in and whispered something in Wang Ren's ear.

Wang Ren's expression turned cold, and he said angrily, "If you're sick, go to the doctor. What's the use of looking for me? I'm not a doctor who can see a doctor."

"Who is sick?" Li Ci asked.

"It's Xiaosi who suddenly developed a fever. It's nothing serious. Mother, you should go back and rest first." Wang Ren said.

Xiao Si was the daughter of one of Wang Ren's concubines, and because this concubine was still favored, she dared to call Wang Ren, perhaps because she wanted to compete for favor.

However, it is estimated that Wang Ren didn't even know the name of his daughter, because he was the fourth of five children, so he kept calling her little four and little four.

Li Ci nodded and sent someone to invite the doctor, saying that he was a child of their family, and he didn't care about the doctor when he was sick.

"Girl Feng, go and have a look later. Don't cause any more illnesses for the child. The fever can be serious or minor. If you need any medicine, you can go to the warehouse to get it." Li Ci ordered, and Wang Xifeng naturally complied.

Wang Ren glanced at Wang Xifeng, and finally said nothing. He thought Jiang Yan became an official, and the family would be more relaxed. Unexpectedly, a stricter Wang Xifeng came.

Give him 100 taels of silver a month, and ask him where the flowers are if he spends more than one tael. No matter how strict he is, sooner or later all the property in this family will belong to him, and even Jiang Yan can't compete with him.

Meeting Wang Ren's indifferent gaze, Wang Xifeng no longer cared, and looked away calmly.

It can be said that since Wang Ren stole her little jewellery, he is no longer worthy of being an elder brother. It is a fantasy that an elder brother is like a father, and he has never felt it in Wang Ren.

After sending Li Ci back to the room to rest, Wang Xifeng took the maid to the courtyard where Wang Ren lived. She seemed to have not been to this courtyard for several years, but it was no different from what she remembered, except that the women in the courtyard were different from before. , and because there were too many people, she couldn't remember if it was the ones she saw last time.

Wang Ren gave birth to five children in recent years, the first three were sons, and the last two were daughters. When the first three sons were born, Jiang Yan was still in Jinling, and arranged for them to live in other courtyards. Serving, did not stop them from meeting their biological mother.

Later, when these two daughters were born, Jiang Yan was an official outside. He wrote to Wang Xifeng and asked her to ask if she would like to let these two daughters be raised together with the previous three children. If he wanted, Jiang Yan didn't force it.

The doctor came, took the pulse and saw a doctor, and finally came to the conclusion that it was a cold, and it would be fine if he took medicine and took good care of it.

Wang Xifeng asked the doctor to be sent away, and she was going back to the small courtyard to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with the maids.

"wait."

Just as she was about to leave, Wang Ren stopped her, walked up to her and said, "Wang Yan didn't marry a wife and have children at such a young age. Instead, he let people raise my son carefully. He didn't mean to take my son away. To be his son?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Brother is just being thoughtful. Does brother need to recognize your son as his son?" Wang Xifeng felt ridiculous. Did Wang Ren think his son was made of gold?Anyone like it?

Wang Ren knew that as long as Jiang Yan was mentioned, Wang Xifeng would be angry, and he would be angry like a fire bag, "You are a girl, you are going to marry after all, and nothing about the Wang family has anything to do with you. Those few shops and the family Hand over the butler's key as soon as it is due, even if you delay it, it will only be four years, I won't say much, you can decide for yourself."

Wang Ren's voice was cold, and he hadn't lost his temper of throwing things since he became lame, but Wang Xifeng felt that his eyes were shining in the dark like a poisonous snake, and the feeling of wanting to bite anyone anytime and anywhere was even more frightening.

He spoiled all the bad moods at first, and went back to her yard angrily, letting the maids eat first and play first. She went to the study to write to her brother, but she didn't know what to write when she picked up the pen. .

She is already 14 years old, and she can't rely on her brother for everything. Wang Ren is right, even if she delays getting married, she still has four years to go. No one can stop her from doing what she wants in these four years.

Xing Ran went back to the yard, ate and drank with the maids, set off fireworks together, set off all the two big boxes of fireworks sent by the Chen family in one night, and did not finish until midnight, simply washed up and borrowed the strength of the wine Son fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Wang Xifeng asked someone to invite a doctor to check the pulse of Wang Ren and all the concubines in his house, and recorded all the symptoms of his body, and then sent them to the yard bowl by bowl. Even if they don't drink the medicine, the taste is enough to make others shy away from their yard.

In addition to medicine, there are also meals, which are all based on the prescription of food tonic, but anything that is good for the body will not be so delicious. Wang Xifeng let Wang Ren lose his temper in the yard and let him reprimand the kitchen those cooks.

The key to the housekeeper of the Wang family is in her hands. One day she is going to get married and has nothing to do with the Wang family, but now she is the one who is in charge of the Wang family. Maybe there will be a situation of '30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi' in the future, but who will make it happen now? She is the one who pays those people monthly.

After giving the order, Wang Xifeng took Ping'er out of sight and out of mind, and wandered around the shops. It happened that she hadn't carefully observed the business of the shops for a long time.

Now that I have time, I can take a closer look and correct any deficiencies as soon as possible, so that the people who come here will continue to flow.

He went out early and came back late every day, except to pay his respects to Li Ci, he was not at home all day, and Wang Ren couldn't get up early to block her until he went to pay his respects to Li Ci again, and Li Ci talked to her about it.
