Chapter 48
Aiqin became more energetic when she heard this, and interjected: "I've heard about this. That day, the boy's creditor brought someone in, and Master Chen asked himself if he still couldn't exchange for this small amount of property. When he knew how much money he could still have left.
With ten silver dollars, I stood up and was about to hit the boy, but the boy even hid. Mr. Chen couldn't hold on and lost his temper on the spot!"
Wang Wenwu continued: "Well, I mean, that guy obviously doesn't know how to do business, but Mr. Chen is such a one-man business, so he still needs to be hired. Chen Ji's business is getting worse day by day. I heard that,
When the shop was in the hands of Mr. Chen, the accounts were nothing."
Shu Jinxi continued: "I've also heard that, it seems that someone set a trap for the Chen family boy, and the attack was not serious at first."
Aiqin continued: "Yes, yes, I've heard it too. At the beginning, I won a lot, but later I lost a lot."
Wang Wenwu quickly interrupted: "No, if the Chen family chooses a good shopkeeper, Chen Ji's business will not be bad. Then won't the Chen family be able to afford it?"
Shu Jinxi said: "Then he was still tricked, wasn't it the same with the shopkeeper and the person?"
Wang Wenwu said: "Although I no longer manage, I can check the accounts. If I don't make money, I can open a shopkeeper!"
Aiqin said: "It's better to be on your own."
Shu Jinxi said: "If you are one of your own, that's not necessarily the case."
Aegean immediately replied: "That's your home."
Wang Wenwu quickly covered Aiqin's mouth. She covered her mouth, but everyone knew what Aiqin said. Shu Jinxi's face was not good-looking either. Even though it had been several years, she was still a joke in the Shu family.
Wang Wenwu hurriedly said: "Jinxi, don't take it to heart, Aiqin has no other meaning!"
Shu Jinxi nodded and said: "I know, there are probably not many people in BJ City who don't know about my family's affairs. Master, I'm fine, hasn't it been so long?"
Aiqin also knew that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "Madam, you also know that I am impatient. I just said the wrong thing, so please don't take it to heart." After saying this, she was about to slap herself in the mouth.
.
Shu Jinxi stopped him and said, "I know you didn't mean it. It's been a long time. I'm fine."
Wang Wenwu signaled Aiqin to leave with his eyes. Aiqin saw Wang Wenwu's signal and quickly found the steps and left immediately.
Shu Jinxi saw Aiqin leaving and said to Wang Wenwu: "I know she said it was unintentional, but what happened to my Shu family is just a joke. If my brothers are living in a bad life, they can still educate others, but their lives are
It’s thriving. Doesn’t this mean they did everything right in the first place?”
Wang Wenwu also didn't know what to say. Shu Jinxi's brothers, relying on their advantages, never let go at all. No one really looked down on their brothers.
Wang Wenwu could only say: "Brother Qiu, I will try to persuade him again. I hope Brother Qiu will listen."
Shu Jinxi responded with a lonely look: "I hope, Master, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm going to sleep first."
Wang Wenwu nodded and said to Shu Jinxi: "As you said, let the past be bygones."
Shu Jinxi nodded silently and left.
When Wang Wenwu saw Shu Jinxi leaving, he went to Aiqin and said, "Aren't you pretty good on weekdays? What happened today? You have already said this."
Aiqin said unhappily: "What's wrong with me saying this? Oh, her family can do such a thing, so let's not let anyone talk about it."
Wang Wenwu said: "Then you can't say it in front of others. In recent years, let alone during the holidays, his family has no contact at all."
Aiqin said happily: "Sir, don't you know? During the Chinese New Year in the first year, the eldest wife would wait at home for a long time and no one would come. She waited helplessly for a long time, but no one from her parents came.
"
Wang Wenwu said angrily: "Stop gloating about others' misfortune. Don't say such things in front of Jinxi. We are all part of the same family."
Aiqin said unhappily: "That's it, I mean, you care about her. What do you think she meant by what she said just now? Do you really want me to die and remonstrate? I don't even think about it and it's not my own property. How can I do it?"
Wang Wenwu said helplessly: "Can't you say less? I know what I know!"
Aiqin said in a low voice: "Not yet. She is going to go to France to go to school. Have you agreed? How much does it cost? I really think I am a eldest lady!" After saying that, she walked towards the door, and Wang Wenwu hurried up.
He stopped him before going back.
Wang Wenwu said helplessly: "Just tell me what you are doing at the door!"
Aiqin curled her lips and said: "What else can I do? Of course I tell her! I don't even look at it. There are several women studying nearby, and there are none who have read foreign books. I have to go abroad to read any books."
After saying this, Aiqin ran to Wang Wenwu and whispered in Wang Wenwu's ear: "Master, I think all her brothers are like this, and I guess she won't get better either. I think it's better not to let her go abroad. We can save a lot."
Where’s the money!”
Wang Wenwu looked at Aiqin with a different look on his face and asked, "Where did you hear this?"
Aiqin said with a proud look on her face: "Didn't I hear this from Aunt Zhang, who works in a wealthy family? If I hadn't heard her tell me, I wouldn't have thought that studying abroad would cost so much money."
Wang Wenwu said: "What did Aunt Zhang say?"
Aiqin said: "Aunt Zhang's errand family's young master is studying in the United States. She said that she has to send five hundred silver dollars every month. The young master also said that the money is short, so the money she used to go to France is not overseas.
Are you going?"
Wang Wenwu said: "This is different. Jinxi went to work-study program, that is, working and going to school at the same time."
Aiqin curled her lips and said: "She looks like that, what kind of things can she do? Who can do anything for her in a foreign country where she is not familiar with her life? In the end, doesn't she have to pay for it?"
Wang Wenwu said: "So I will send her to France! Set her up and come back!"
Aiqin jumped up and said, "What? Are you going to send her away?" She immediately grabbed Wang Wenwu's hand and said, "Don't you want us anymore?"
Wang Wenwu said doubtfully: "Why don't I want you anymore? I'm going abroad on business, so I'll see her off by the way. Besides, this way I'll feel more at ease! Why do you think I don't want you anymore!"
Aiqin was so anxious that she burst into tears just now. Aiqin wiped her tears and said: "Aren't these the old Suntou family in the alley next door? A few years ago, they went to France in Europe to recruit people. All four brothers went there and left.
The next family, an orphan and a widower, had money to send back at first, but there was no news later. Everyone who went with them all came back, and none of the four brothers returned. I heard from my colleagues that he became a visiting son-in-law."
Wang Wenwu said: "Then don't think about it, why am I? It's because I am in BJ City. After leaving the city, I am nothing. How could I leave you!" After saying that, he hugged Aiqin in his arms.
