The entertainment tycoon of the Republic of China
Chapter 22 Mr. Teacher
Mrs. Wen smiled very kindly, took Xie Yan's hand, took out her many years of experience in the world, and tried to ask about Xie Yan's situation.
Xie Yan was an elite lawyer in her previous life, so it's not impossible that she couldn't see through these language traps, but the difference in status is here. Mrs. Wen didn't seem to have any malicious intentions. Some half-truths.
Mrs. Wen didn't care that Xie Yan was from a theater troupe, and now she was working in a teahouse. The heroes didn't care about their backgrounds. She and Wen Jiulou both came from reckless backgrounds, and they always only judged people by their own abilities.
What's more, it would be better for the Wen family if Xie Yan's background is not deep. There are not many benefits involved, as long as Wen Heng can fight for himself, there is no obstacle in "marrying" him back.
Mrs. Wen looked at Xie Yan, thought about it a few times, and smiled more kindly.
Wen Rui, who frowned and watched from the sidelines, took everything into consideration, thinking about whether to remind his brother about what happened today.
Forget it, Wen Rui thought, anyway, Wen Heng will have to get married sooner or later, let his mother focus on his affairs first, and he can relax for a while.
These days in the country are not peaceful. Wen Rui, who is busy with military affairs every day, really doesn't want to face all kinds of urging questions from his mother after returning home. He thinks for half a second in his heart and decides decisively to continue to betray his brother.
As for Xie Yan... It's not right to implicate him, but my mother is not an impatient and unreasonable person, and there is no real harm. At worst, she can help him out in the future.
"Ayan, you just said that Heng'er introduced you to a job of playing piano in a western restaurant. I don't think it's very good." Mrs. Wen held Xie Yan's hand, and the address had changed.
"That western restaurant hasn't been built yet. Wouldn't it be a shame to leave you in the teahouse as a small worker?" Mrs. Wen clapped her hands and said, "I think you have a good eye for the child, and I want to ask you something, no Do you know if you are free?"
"Please tell me." Xie Yan was puzzled.
"I also have a young daughter in my family. She is 14 years old this year. She has been studying the Four Books and Five Classics and needlework from a female teacher. Isn't it the Republic of China now? My master said that he would find a new husband for my daughter to learn some foreign things. I have been doing it these days. I'm looking for it, but the male gentlemen are too old to be convenient, and there are no female gentlemen who have stayed abroad who are willing to teach, so it has been delayed until now."
"Seeing you today, I suddenly remembered this matter. I am relieved of your personality, and you are Heng'er's friend, and the name is also suitable. I would like to invite you to teach my daughter every day. What do you think?"
Mrs. Wen thought for a while and said, "The salary is the same as the original female husband, 30 yuan per month, how about it?"
Mrs. Wen originally planned to give more money, but she set the price because she was afraid that being too abrupt would cause Xie Yan's discomfort. Even so, it frightened Xie Yan.
30 yuan per month, which is already the same as the old Mr. Wang Luozi who has a unique skill. He is worthy of the Wen family.
Xie Yan did not doubt Mrs. Wen's words. The concierge said just now that there is a lady in their family. Nowadays, many rich and open-minded families let their daughters learn foreign knowledge. It has almost become a trend. In the school, it is normal to invite a gentleman.
"I can only teach Miss Wen how to play the piano, and read some foreign classics with her if necessary. I don't know anything else. If Mrs. Wen thinks it is appropriate, I will not be disrespectful."
"That's enough." Mrs. Wen smiled, and upon hearing Xie Yan's promise, she sent someone to pick up 30 yuan from Dayang, wrapped it in red paper and put it in the package, making sure that it would not make a sound.
"You are Heng'er's friend. I know you are a good boy with ambition, and I'm not afraid of you running away. This is the first month's wages. You are short of money now, so use it for emergency use first."
Mrs. Wen praised her, but Xie Yan didn't pretend to refuse. After thanking him sincerely, he took over Dayang's job, which was regarded as officially accepting the job.
Mrs. Wen pulled Xie Yan to say something again, afraid that the other party would notice something wrong if she was too enthusiastic, so she left the study with an excuse after a while.
She took the servant girl all the way to the living room on the second floor before stopping to ask.
"Xilian, what do you think of this Xie Yan?"
"Returning to Madam, I think that although Master Xie is young, he is a sensible person, smart and sensible." Xi Lian has been with Madam Wen for so many years, how could she not know her Madam's thoughts, and replied with a smile, "The key is That gentle and restrained temperament matches our Second Young Master very well."
"You." Mrs. Wen was not annoyed when her mind was pierced, she shook her head with a smile, "This man and man are no more than men and women, and there is no less entanglement without children. Heng'er wants to find a confidant, I can understand, the twisted one After all, melons are neither sweet nor long-lasting. I just do my best to obey the destiny, and it depends on the juniors themselves in the end."
"Second young master is top-notch in both appearance and ability, and he has a good temper. He will definitely marry a wife in the end, so you can rest assured."
"I hope." Mrs. Wen sighed. She was old after all. Ten years ago, her violent temper would never worry about such things.
I hope that Rui'er and Heng'er can have a happy family before she and Wen Jiulou really grow old, and they can be alone. Even if she closes her eyes at that time, she will have no regrets in her life.
"Xilian, go to Miss San and tell her." Mrs. Wen withdrew her thoughts, her expression calmed down, "Just say that I have invited a new husband for her according to what she thought, and since I asked for it myself, I respect the teacher." Study hard, don't blow wind in the master's ear anymore."
"Madam really doesn't want to care about it, it's only a one-sentence matter, can the master still be angry with you about this?" Xi Lian was puzzled, "Why bother to be angry with yourself."
"I'm not angry because of her. I'm just thinking about the old things." Mrs. Wen sat on the sofa and looked out the window, "She is also the daughter of the Wen family. We share our affection."
"The Wen family has a great career, and it's not like they're going to lose out on their serious young lady. It's just that she doesn't live up to her expectations and is obedient all day long. She is exactly the same as the pitiful look her biological mother pretended to be before. I don't like it when I see it, and I have done nothing good or bad to her these years, just do my duty."
"It's Madam who is kind-hearted." Xi Lian hurriedly said, "A young lady of this kind of background will suffer a lot if she is placed in another family. Madam has never shorted her in these years. It is enough. As for the mother-daughter relationship After all, it’s not your own, so you can’t force it.”
"Compare me with those little-footed women who only know how to fight in the nest?" Mrs. Wen sneered, "I'm busy managing the business of these seven trades and eight industries, but I don't have time to think of ways to plot against a little girl. Can Wen Jiulou have Today, if I don’t talk about it, I’ll get a third of the credit, and I’ll see who has the face to say that I’m not doing well in Wen’s house.”
Xi Lian knew that her wife was getting angry when she remembered the past, so she didn't dare to say a word, and stood on the side obediently.
Mrs. Wen closed her eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and frowned, as if recalling some extremely infuriating scene. After a long time, she slowly opened her eyes, and her eyes had returned to calm.
"Xilian."
"lady."
"Today's cake is also sent to the third lady, don't say those words, tell her a few words about Xie Yan's identity, let her not talk too much, and learn from the master."
"...Yes, ma'am."
Hearing this, Xi Lian withdrew and summoned the other maids to retreat, leaving Mrs. Wen alone.
Before going out, she took a last look at the living room. Mrs. Wen was sitting quietly by the window, her shrewd and sharp eyes were a little melancholy, but also a little disheartened.
Every family has scriptures that are hard to recite. Even though so many years have passed about the matter of the master and Aunt Tao, the bones of one of them have long since decayed, and it is still a sharp thorn in Madam's heart.
As long as Miss Wen San, Aunt Tao's daughter stays in Wen's house for a day, this thorn will remind Mrs. Wen all the time, and even if Miss Wen San gets married and leaves in the future, it may not disappear.
They are all poor people, Xilian lowered her eyes and sighed in her heart.
I only hope that Madam can put the overall situation first and suppress the old thoughts in her heart as soon as possible.The eldest young master and the second young master have reached the age of marriage, and it will take two years to have a grandson. The days are always getting better and better.
Xie Yan was an elite lawyer in her previous life, so it's not impossible that she couldn't see through these language traps, but the difference in status is here. Mrs. Wen didn't seem to have any malicious intentions. Some half-truths.
