Qian laughed and said, "I saw that she was young and didn't have many places to spend money, and she didn't have a biological mother to help her, so I thought of helping her save some of the money and save it to buy two shops.
Well, when you get married in the future, you can have more dowry, right? Even if you go to your husband's house, you will be confident and won't let anyone see it clearly."
"It's hard for you to think so thoughtfully, but we all misunderstood you." The old lady nodded, and the look in her eyes softened a lot.
Seeing this, Mrs. Qian breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then continued: "After all, she is raised in my name, and she is the same age as Rao'er. When I see her, she looks just like my own child. How can I not
Do you feel sorry for her? My sister passed away early, leaving only a little bit of her blood. I thought about helping her find a good family in the future so that she could live a life without worries about food and clothing. From now on, even if I go down there, it would be nice to meet my sister.
Isn’t that an explanation?”
"It's just..." After a pause, he changed to a plaintive tone, "She is not my biological child after all. No matter how much I think about her, as long as there is a little bit of inconsideration, it will inevitably make people think that I
I treated her badly." As he said this, he did not forget to squeeze out two sad tears.
It is true that it is difficult to be a stepmother. After all, she is not a biological child. If there is anything unsatisfactory, others will suspect that she is not doing well as a stepmother.
However, it is true that she has not done anything for Qingwan.
From eating and dressing to being sick and studying, she didn't even do a single thing for Qingwan.
The only thing I did was to find two nuns to teach her the rules that day, and to make her two new clothes during the holidays.
Of course, these old ladies didn't know, and no one else had the guts to talk in front of her.
"I feel sorry for you." The old lady patted the back of her hand as if she understood it, and sighed, "It's just that the one tael of silver is really too little for chewing. She is now learning how to make incense from Master Li.
It's a place where you have to spend money to get in and out. Now that there are so many people in the yard all of a sudden, you have to give some rewards occasionally during festivals. If people outside know that the eldest daughter of our Qing family has...
We don’t even have a tael of silver, so if we tell others, it will make our whole Qing family a joke.”
"That's what mother said!" Mrs. Qian took out her handkerchief and pretended to wipe her tears, "Don't worry, I will give it to her according to the due regulations and give her an extra two taels of silver so that she can go out easily.
I'll take care of it while I'm out." Worried that the old lady would say she was a prodigal, she quickly added, "The money is mine, so it will be deducted from my chews."
The old lady shook her head and said, "That's not necessary. Just do the same as everyone else, so that other girls won't blame you."
Just when Mr. Qian was happy that he had saved two taels of silver, he heard the old lady continue: "Didn't you say that you would use the money she had saved over the years to buy two shops for her? So you gave it to her.
Take care of it yourself! Even the shop you chose for her is probably not too bad. Whether she keeps it for herself or rents it out, it will be an income after all, and it must be enough for a whole yard of them.
Besides, she will get married in two years. After all, she is the legitimate daughter of my Qing family. She will also be a mistress when she gets married. She will have to take care of the house, so I asked her to learn to take care of the two.
