Chapter 171 Tan Family Affairs(2/2)
Song Yaxin smiled and said, "You still remember."
"Of course, if someone is talented, I will promote her." Song Qingyue said seriously, "There will be many places where I will need people in the future."
Song Yaxin looked at her third sister with complex and curious eyes. What Li Zhao said before setting off was, "How much does a baby need to be worth to be more valuable than your third sister?" It's true that after the third sister came to the capital, she first raised cattle and sheep.
After that, it was mining. After digging, she continued to make soap and a wool factory. She kept struggling. Now she is taking herself to the northwest to open a wool factory. What else does she want to do in the future... She seems to be able to come up with endless ideas.
Lots of new ideas.
"Where do you get all these weird ideas?" Song Yaxin really couldn't understand.
"Well, maybe I was inspired by a fairy when I was a child?" Song Qingyue winked mischievously at her sister.
"..."
Song Yaxin didn't know how to answer the question, and she even believed it in her heart, otherwise she couldn't explain it. They were both her father's daughters, and she was still the legitimate daughter. Whether it was playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing, or managing the house and finances, Song Yaxin thought she was good at it. But.
It seems that Song Qingyue is so different. She can conjure things that don't exist in this world. No one can compare with her in this matter.
"Okay, sister, please tell me about the girl that the young master of the Cao family is interested in!"
Probably that girl was too special, and Song Yaxin knew it in detail, "The girl's surname was Tan. She started growing peppercorns from her great-grandmother, and her business gradually grew. From her grandmother, to her mother, to herself, every generation of Tan
The big shopkeepers of our business are all women, and when they can't give birth to a son, they look for a son-in-law, but they refuse to accept an heir sent by a relative of the Tan family."
"That's really not easy." Song Qingyue admired sincerely, "A woman has to support her own family and also have to guard against a group of relatives who are like hungry wolves."
"Isn't that right? The fate of Miss Tan's mother was not good. Seven years ago, she and her husband were caught in a mudslide when they went to Sichuan to run goods, and they both died together. At that time, Miss Tan was only ten years old. Her grandmother died because of her mother's death.
She died of a serious illness, and her health has not been good since then. Over the years, Miss Tan has been able to survive almost alone." Song Yaxin also sighed, "Her father's relatives in the Luo family are not good either.
, when they were so poor that they couldn't afford to eat, they asked their sons to be the son-in-law of other families. Later, they still relied on the Tan family to live a prosperous life. These people, instead of being grateful, actually had the idea of the Tan family. The Luo family elders
My wife saw that only Miss Tan and her grandmother were the only ones left in the Tan family, and thought they were easy to bully. In the name of Miss Tan’s grandmother, she negotiated a marriage with Yunyang Bo’s Mansion and wanted to send Miss Tan to Yunyang Bozhang’s family as a concubine!”
"Wait a minute... Yunyang Earl's Mansion, Zhang Family?" Song Qingyue thought she was quite familiar with the elite circles in the capital, so why didn't she remember that there was such an Earl's Mansion?
Song Yaxin also looked sarcastic: "You haven't heard of it, have you? Aunt Cao said that I have never heard of such a house in our capital before. It is said to be the Earl's Mansion. In fact, it will be reduced to Earl's Mansion after the old man passes away.
Viscount. It turns out that the Zhang family even found a job for their eldest son in the East Palace.
After the fall of the palace, the Zhang family was completely in ruins. It was just an empty house, with no one doing serious work in the house. The family relied on pawning the old lady's dowry. After all, they looked down on Miss Tan. What are you talking about?
She is a merchant girl, and she is not worthy to be the official wife of the prince's son."
"How disgusting!" Song Qingyue frowned.
"What's even more disgusting! This marriage is completely the result of the Luo family talking to themselves. They even sent people to the Tan family to ask for the dowry of 200,000 taels, saying that they would keep it for Miss Tan. They also said that she had to come from Luo.
He carried out the door of his house, but was beaten out by a servant of the Tan family, which made him very embarrassed.
But the Luo family had already accepted the betrothal gift from the Zhang family, and if they didn't want to pay it back, they were punished by the uncle's house.
The marriage didn't work out, so they planned to go to Tan's shop to cause trouble, to ruin Miss Tan's reputation, saying that she had an affair with a boy from the Luo family, and to force Miss Tan to marry their boy. Hey, how could this happen?
Such a family!"
Song Qingyue also became angry after hearing this. She squinted her eyes and thought about how to find an opportunity to rectify the Luo family and the Zhang family. It was really shameful and asked: "Has the wedding date of Miss Tan and Master Cao been set? I will give Tan a wedding date by then."
The girl will give you a make-up gift."
Song Yaxin smiled and said: "Next June, you can give it to me too, so we can make Miss Tan look good."
"But since they are engaged, whose family will the child belong to in the future? We can't let Mr. Cao go to the Tan family to be the son-in-law." Song Qingyue asked.
Song Yaxin said: "The old lady of the Tan family is very open-minded, and she doesn't mind what the child's name is. Anyway, the Tan family's family fortune will only be given to the children born to Miss Tan."
Song Qingyue clicked her tongue and sighed: "If you think like this, you can see that Mrs. Tan is also extraordinary. She can write a story about this matter!"
Song Yaxin shook her head: "Scholars don't like to read this kind of story. They just like to read stories about rich people falling in love with poor scholars."
"That's right." Song Qingyue burst into laughter.
