After talking about the family affairs, everyone dispersed, and Zhaoshi accompanied Jingxian back to the room.Talked a few words about the preparations for the police officer school and the affairs of my sister and brother-in-law, and then drank the sweet soup, and asked with a smile: "Lan Xin said to drink some milk with honey before going to bed, so that I can sleep more peacefully. My sister-in-law will try it later. "Jing Xian said: "No need, you guys are all safe, and I don't have any troubles about falling asleep. Cow's milk is a good thing, but it has a strong fishy smell and makes it uncomfortable to drink. That kid Lan Xin has been used to drinking it since she was a child. , I don’t think so.” Zhaoshi replied: “Yes, we used to be young and ignorant, and made my sister-in-law worry too much. You can rest now.” Jingxian smiled: “I just worry about my life, no one When you rest. Tomorrow, I will send someone to deliver the account book. Come to me after dinner in the evening, and I will explain to you bit by bit. You should also cheer up and study hard, just like studying when you were a child. " Zhaoshi laughed together: "When you say that it's the same as reading when you were a child, my palms hurt here." Jingxian patted him: "Well, when you look back, you still stick to each other without paying attention. Let your wife look at you. Where should you put your face?" At this time, Zhaoshi acted coquettishly like Lianzhou: "My good sister-in-law, just love me. Look at Lianzhou and I just stared at you, and you can't bear it. I don’t have such a blessing.” Jing Xian stroked Zhao Shi’s hair like a child: “Oh, I saw Lian Zhou as a child without father and mother. If you could be as sweet-mouthed as him when you were young, you would It hurts. Besides, my father was still alive at that time."

Zhaoshi leaned his face against the bed and said to Jingxian: "I was taught by my sister-in-law when I was young, so I went to sue my father. My father scolded me, saying that your family's ancestors were the emperor's grand teachers, and now the Gu family It is my good fortune that the eldest lady is willing to teach me, if I refuse to obey, he will break my leg with family law first." Jingxian looked into the distance, as if recalling the past, and after a while Said: "You child, if you call sister-in-law earlier, I am afraid that you have been hurting you for a few years. In the past, after all, uncles and sister-in-law were not allowed to get close. If you call mother-in-law earlier, I am afraid that you will have a place to lean on. This I also blame me. I used to abide by this inexplicable rule, and I didn’t think that you were a half-grown child. Other people’s children and parents are acting like a baby in their arms. You understand the matter of inheriting the family business. Now you are married, sister-in-law I also advise you, you have to live your own life in the future, and I don't care about the affairs of you young couple. The things in life are the same, if you say a few good words, it will hurt more."

When Zhaoshi came out of Jingxian's room, it was already very late at night.Seeing that the lights in Lianzhou's room downstairs were still on, he guessed that the little guy was still reading novels, so he tiptoed downstairs.Pushing open the door but reading the novel has been thrown aside, lying on the bed sprawled and fell asleep.Zhaoshi turned off the light for him, and was about to go out, but Lianzhou woke up with a start: "No, don't turn off the light!" Zhaoshi turned on the light, looked at Lianzhou's frightened face, and asked, "You don't turn off the lights when you sleep? Is it?" Lianzhou pouted: "You can't close it if you sleep by yourself." At this moment, Zhaoshi knew that Lianzhou had slept with Jingxian since she was a child, and refused to go back to sleep by herself every night.Later, when she was getting older, Jing Xian had the heart to lock him into her room and go to sleep. Lianzhou cried a few times before she got an amnesty to sleep without turning off the lights.It turned out to be a habit to come and go again and again, and I couldn't fall asleep when the lights were turned off.

Zhaoshi shook his head, he really had milk for a crying child, so he turned on the bedside lamp for Lianzhou, turned off the room light and went out.

In the evening of the next day, Zhaoshi and Zhenghai stood neatly beside Jingxian's desk like two students, listening to Jingxian take care of the business under each family's name.Lan Xin sat in Huanzhu's room and watched her draw, while Lianzhou lay on the sofa beside him and read his novels.He had just learned English, and there were a lot of new words, so he always asked Lan Xin about them, but Lan Xin was not in a hurry to tell him, and asked him to look them up in the dictionary by himself.The stories in the novel were full of twists and turns, Lian Zhou didn't bother to look up word by word, and read it in a hurry, Lan Xin didn't stop her, letting him guess and read.

Huanzhu's fine brushwork of flowers and birds is exquisite and lovely, and the pictures of ladies are also gentle and bright. Lan's mind has an idea, and she goes to the room and finds out her collection of American fashion magazines and gives them to Huanzhu, who asks Huanzhu to draw fashion design diagrams.When Huanzhu was seven or eight years old, she was able to draw patterns on clothes. Naturally, such a trivial matter could not be difficult for her, and she could draw it in three or two strokes.After a few drawings, you have your own new creation.

Lan Xin held up Huanzhu's drawing and knocked on Jingxian's door. "Sister-in-law, we have such a designer at home now, it's time to switch to women's ready-to-wear business. Now that the Nanjing government has been established, the war can be fought for a few days, and the military uniform can be made for a few days!" Zhaoshi said. She raised her face and said, "What is the family business doing? It's not your turn to talk." Jingxian glanced at Zhaoshi, and he stopped talking. Jingxian turned to Lan Xin again: "I really want to open two women's clothing The production line is only for the ready-made garments to have good designers and pattern-making masters. Now several garment factories are stealing design drafts from each other, causing a lot of trouble, and the lawsuit has even been brought to the textile union." Lan Xin covered her mouth and smiled: " Or if I say that our family is uniquely blessed to do this, are you afraid that Huanzhu will give the design to others?"

Jingxian lowered her head and thought for a while, then ordered: "Zhenghai, come even if you call Huanzhu." Zhenghai agreed to go.

But Jingxian turned to Zhaoshi: "I plan to transfer all the garment shop and silk and satin shop to Zhenghai and Huanzhu, and leave the factory to you." Zhaoshi just said: "Sister-in-law can arrange it." Jingxian was a little impatient: "Don't just agree, I have to tell you why. You are kind-hearted and don't treat the workers harshly, so I left the factory to you. That kid from Zhenghai is more ruthless than you at critical times. Go and manage those shops. There are intrigues in the market. There are too many dirty things, I'm afraid you won't understand."

Zhenghai came in holding Huanzhu's hand, Huanzhu smiled when he saw the pattern his mother drew on her.Jingxian asked her: "Huanzhu, do you want to go on to university, or would you like to go to a garment factory to do design. You can just draw and paint since you were a child, and I think the way that my aunt helped you think of is not bad." Lan Xin drummed on the side : "There are no professional fashion designers in China. All the factories just spend more money to hire some famous painters to do the design. We Huanzhu can be the first professional fashion designer." Huanzhu looked at Lan Xin Looking at Jing Xian and Zheng Hai again, there was hope in their eyes.

Jingxian understood what her daughter meant, and she made a final decision: "That's how it is. The family's spinning mill is under the name of Zhaoshi. The garment factory is allocated to Huanzhu, and the garment shop and silk and satin factory are all given to Huanzhu. Others The clothing store, silk reeling factory, knitting factory, and asset management company are the properties of the government. In the future, Lianzhou will also come from here. My dowry has participated in the shares of their Zhujia Commercial Savings Bank. In the future, Huanzhu and Lianzhou will be alone. Half of it." Zhaoshi was startled, the sister-in-law was so worried about Zhou Xiang, the Zhu family obviously coveted the Shen family's property before, otherwise Lan Xin's informant would not have happened.Now the two families are not only married, but also participate in shares. You have me, and I have you, so there is nothing to talk about.If they come to search the Shen family's property again, the Zhu family will also be involved. "While thinking about it, I heard Jing Xian say, "Zhao Shi and Lan Xin each have their own jobs. If they can't manage these properties, they can hire someone to take care of them, or they can entrust Zheng Hai. You can give him a salary or take a commission. Decide for yourself.This matter needs to be settled by brothers and sisters, so don't mess with each other.Make a charter and let me know.The official property and the family's house and fields are still under my name, and I still have some dowry from my aunt here, so I won't interfere with the rest. In the future, whoever takes over the Shen family's family business will naturally pass it to whoever. "Just as she was about to tell everyone to disperse, she suddenly remembered something again, "The garment factory in Guangzhou is sold, and there is still some cash in the account. I want to exchange it for something safer.It is said that the golden age of antiques and gold in troubled times, I can't see that this is in troubled times, what do you mean? "Zhaoshi and Zhenghai said in unison: "Gold"

Jingxian sighed: "It seems that things in this world are still not peaceful. Zhaoshi, you should be careful, I will be worried every day I wear this military uniform." Zhaoshi was embarrassed, unable to express that he wanted to take off this military uniform, and I can't comfort my sister-in-law.It was Lan Xin who came out to save the siege: "Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. Zhaoshi is not in the army now, he is just an instructor at the school. It will never be the police's turn to fight. Besides, we dare not say that our family is great. , more or less it can be regarded as having a name in Shanghai, and someone in the government or the army is also a protection." Jingxian snorted: "A name that bullies others, don't worry about it." Lan Xin turned pale, and then changed into a smile: "With you in charge, he wouldn't dare to bully others even if he had ten guts, wouldn't he, Zhaoshi?" Zhaoshi was amazed at Lan Xin's reaction, and when she heard her ask himself, he hurriedly agreed, "Yes, Zhaoshi didn't dare."
