Chapter 95

At this time, Ms. Li thought again that if her husband could cooperate with the Tang family, if they could make more money, wouldn't their family be so poor, and their daughters would be able to plan their futures when they grow up?

She looked at the eldest mistress wearing maternity clothes, her hair covered with rich and precious jewelry, and she only had a wooden hairpin on her head.

Like the eldest lady, she is dressed in rich clothes, dressed in silk and satin, and is so luxurious.

The hairpin on her head sparkles, and the necklaces she wears on her hands are even more valuable.

Moreover, when I saw that they often dressed up differently every day, I felt inferior and thought that the young mistress looked down on her daughters because they were not worthy of the Tang family.

The Li family would never think that poor people like them could marry the wealthy Tang family.

She also knew some of the rules about being in the same household, and she felt that even if her daughters could enter the Tang family, they would not be the head mothers.

Li's family was born in a farmer's family, and she also believed that being the wife of a poor man would not be the aunt of a rich man.

Although the aunt lived a life of splendor and wealth like her master, she was controlled by her mistress and seemed to have entered a cage of wealth.

The fate of the aunt may also be controlled by others, because most of the aunts come from families with little background and are not as strong as the mistress.

At this moment, Mrs. Li heard how the young mistress was ostracizing herself and her daughters. She just lowered her head and did not want her husband to bring their daughters to the county town.

Even if the husband could cooperate with the Tang family, he only wanted the husband to build a small factory at home.

Tang Shunyan was told by his mother. At such a young age, he pouted and had no other words to refute. He did not yet have the ability to protest against some of the things his mother said.

"Okay, okay! The housekeeper said that Mr. Li doesn't want to come to the county, so let's send some wood to her house for the time being for carving. After the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Li can go home! You two take good care of your daughter."

As a man, Young Master Tang has already acquiesced in his wife's words. If they are well-matched, they can better expand their family business by marrying someone from a wealthy family.

Although the wife he married was not a direct descendant, she was from a well-known family and was helpful to their family.

"Well, as the eldest young master said, housekeeper, please make arrangements tomorrow to transport the wood to Li's house and send two guards to guard it.

If possible, steward, go find the village leader, buy some land in their village, and build a small factory there. The working space at Li's house is too narrow, so you won't be able to accomplish anything big."

The housekeeper nodded after listening to the master's words. The thatched house in Li's house is indeed not suitable for precious wood carvings. If there is wind and rain, water will enter the thatched house and make the wood damp.

"Yes, Sir, I will make arrangements to build a small factory. If it is not made of blue bricks or red bricks, it does not require much investment to use those mud brick buildings."

Mr. Tang was silent for a moment after listening to the housekeeper's words. He felt that the mud-tile house was a bit weak. It could only be strong for a few years at most. The difference between red bricks and blue bricks was that they could be safe for twenty or thirty years.

Mr. Tang, who has a big family and a big business, will not save such a small amount of money. If the personnel are in danger, they will lose more.

Before Master Tang could say anything, Young Master Tang had already thought of these issues and said:

"Steward, we invested money to set up a factory, and we won't close it after a few years. Even if this business doesn't last that long, we can still use the factory to do other businesses. There are a lot of mountain products in the mountains, and we can also use these factories to collect mountain products.

Food and stuff like that.”

After listening to the eldest young master's words, the housekeeper nodded and said, "Please give me your instructions..."

"Well, you go and make some arrangements. If you want to do it, make it bigger. In the factory, one side can be used as a factory and the other side can be used as a dormitory. There is still room left over for what I just said.

When there is grain storage, you can collect grain, and when there is mountain goods to collect, you can collect mountain goods there."

"I understand what the eldest young master means. Blue bricks are more expensive. We are making factory buildings. We don't need such expensive green bricks. The quality of red bricks is similar to that of green bricks. Using red bricks to build factory buildings in the countryside is already very high-end.

Already."

Mr. Tang and the eldest young master both nodded at the housekeeper's suggestion. The eldest lady and the eldest young mistress could only listen, but could not interrupt when they were talking.

But the eldest mistress is very annoyed. My husband and the others are building a factory for the Li family. Isn't this going to make them rich?

I don’t know why? The eldest mistress didn’t hate any of her previous nannies that much, but Mrs. Li was the one she hated the most.

Her son was her ten-month-pregnant son, but her heart was protecting a wet nurse from a commoner family. This may be one of the reasons why he hated the Li family, and even more so because he hated the Li family's environment as a commoner, but he was able to gain the attention of his son and his family.

of attention.

The eldest mistress may have been used to oppression in her natal family, and a concubine had little power to speak. Now that she came to the Tang family, as the wife of the eldest mistress, she had more power and wanted to control the fate of others.

Mrs. Li felt happy and worried at the same time as she listened to the words of her master's family.

Fortunately, after the Chinese New Year, she no longer has to work here as a helper and can stay at home with her husband and daughter.

The food and accommodation here are good, but the dragon bed is not as good as the dog pot.

She is frightened every day and is wary of others plotting against her.

No matter how bad her mother-in-law is at home, it is still her home, and she feels safer with her husband by her side.

What worries me is that my family is cooperating with the Tang family, who are building factories and sending wood, and I am worried that my husband will not be able to do the job well.

Mrs. Li was afraid that people from wealthy families who had paid so much but could not get anything in return might use tricks against their family.

She was not dazzled by this happy event. Wealth often requires taking risks, and it is not as simple as husband and father-in-law doing private work at home.

Little Tang Shunyan listened quietly to what the adults said and rolled his eyes. He was not sad that Mr. Li might leave him after the Chinese New Year. He felt that if his family cooperated with Mr. Li's family, he would definitely have the opportunity to go.

Play at their house.

He is looking forward to growing up soon and having his own free time, so that he can visit Mr. Li and those sisters at any time.

"Grandpa, grandma, father and mother, you can't take these toys away. These toys were given to me by my little sister."

"Okay, okay, these toys all belong to my grandson." The eldest lady said with a smile.

The housekeeper actually wanted to take the templates of these cheaper wooden toys to the wood factory so that their own wood factory could also copy them.

After listening to the young master's words, he did not dare to take any action. As a housekeeper, he could only listen to the words of the master's family.

"Butler, go make arrangements and leave early tomorrow morning."

After making arrangements, Master Tang went back to the study with his father.

Mrs. Tang also returned to her room in the courtyard. It was not good for a pregnant woman to go back to the courtyard after dark. She did not like having dinner with her mother-in-law.
