The pinnacle life starting from the son-in-law

Chapter 112 Hu Ren's outstanding performance

Ye Qingqing smiled and said, "Mengmeng, think about it, when we have a big house, you will have 10 children and 8 children, and the two of us will teach them together..."

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Xia Mengmeng's eyes also showed a hint of ignorance, but she quickly realized that her pretty face blushed, she pushed Ye Qingqing away forcefully, turned around, and after a while, she sighed in one breath.

"But if we leave home, how will we live!"

Hearing this, Ye Qingqing grabbed Xia Mengmeng's little hand again, and said with a big smile, "Mengmeng, don't worry, I guarantee that after you leave home, your life will be better than your current life."

Having said that, Ye Qingqing paused for a moment before continuing, "Look, Mengmeng, how long it took us to earn 25 taels of silver. With so much silver, what else do you have to worry about?" , if you can’t stay idle, at worst, let you open another jade shop, and let you play.”

Xia Mengmeng gave Ye Qingqing a charming sideways glance, "You are lucky today to meet such a fool as Zhou Wenxin..."

Speaking of this, Xia Mengmeng suddenly remembered that Ye Qingqing had lied to her, her eyebrows raised immediately, but then she asked with some doubts.

"You clearly told me that the Jade Buddha statue is fake, but why is it real?"

Ye Qingqing heard the words, looked up at the sky, and said with a smile, "Maybe it's really my luck. Today's light is so bright that it shines on the Jade Buddha statue, blinding Zhou Wenxin's dog eyes." ...."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingqing paused, not interested in continuing on this topic, and continued, "Mengmeng, you don't agree to what I just said!"

Hearing this sentence, Xia Mengmeng sighed again, "Jizu is still so young, he is still a child, and Erniang doesn't..., how can I rest assured?"

Ye Qingyi sighed, "Your second mother doesn't want you to take care of your ancestors, and you know this very well, so why bother yourself!"

Xia Mengmeng bowed her head in silence for a moment, then said slowly, "You asked me to think about it, I'm in a mess right now, so I can't promise you!"

Ye Qing nodded easily and didn't say any more.

……

Xia Mengmeng's heart was indeed in a mess. From the time she recruited Ye Qingqing as her son-in-law, she planned to die in Xia's mansion, and wholeheartedly helped her younger brother to guard the Xia family's wealth.

However, as a woman, I was deeply moved by Ye Qingqing's words!

I have my own house, my own home, my own husband, and my own children...

Thinking of having a child, Xia Mengmeng's heart pounded even more, for those who didn't come, they actually had some expectations for the kind of life Ye Qingqing talked about.

However, the younger brother is not worried, the second mother is not worried, and the father listens to the second mother's words, and he can't control it, alas!
Xia Mengmeng's heart felt really messed up, and when she returned to the jade shop, she didn't stay for long when she saw He Qingyi got into the carriage and went back to Xia's house.

Since Xia Mengmeng said that he had to think about it, Ye Qingqing didn't ask any more questions, and he just chatted with Xia Mengmeng about some irrelevant issues in the carriage.

The carriage arrived at Xia Mansion very quickly, and as soon as the two got out of the carriage, they saw Xiao Liucong hurriedly running out of the gate.

When Xiao Liu saw the two of them, she was stunned for a while, and then her face was full of smiles.

"Uncle, you are back..."

Ye Qingyi stepped forward and scratched her little nose, and asked with a smile, "Did you miss me?"

Xiao Liu nodded vigorously, "I think about it, I dreamed about my uncle yesterday!"

When Ye Qing heard this, he burst out laughing, "Okay, since everyone has dreamed about me, there must be a reward."

As he spoke, Ye Qingqing took out a string of wrist beads and handed them to Xiao Liu, "Xiao Liu, these are Buddhist beads consecrated by an eminent monk. After you wear them, you will be safe from all diseases and live a long life!"

"Thank you, uncle..."

Hearing that this string of Buddhist beads had such efficacy, Xiao Liu was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the beads and put them on her small wrist. After a while, she reluctantly took them off and put them away carefully.

Seeing this easily, Ye Qing was a little puzzled, "Don't you like it?"

Xiao Liu shook her head, "This string of Buddhist beads from my uncle is so good, I want to give it to my mother, my mother is not in good health, after wearing this string of Buddhist beads, she should be able to live a long life!"

Ye Qingqing was moved when he heard the words, "Xiao Liu, if your mother is sick, you can bring her to me, and I will guarantee her a long life!"

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Xiao Liu's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded vigorously, "Thank you, uncle!"

Xia Mengmeng on the side waited until the two of them finished talking, then frowned and asked, "Xiao Liu, I see you are in a hurry to go out, did something happen at home?"

"oops!"

As soon as Xia Mengmeng's words fell, Xiao Liu yelled, "Miss, I went out to find you,"

"Look for me, what happened at home?"

Xiao Liu nodded, "Second Madam's younger brother came back from the capital and asked you to meet him, so he asked me to go to the store to find you!"

After hearing Xiao Liu's words, Xia Mengmeng frowned suspiciously, "Xiao Liu, what's the matter with uncle coming here?"

Xiao Liu shook his head, "I don't know."

Speaking of this, Xiao Liu's tone paused, and then continued, "However, I think the younger brother of the Second Madam is so handsome... how handsome is he?"

……

As soon as Ye Qingqing entered the door, he saw the handsome uncle Xiaoliu was talking about.

The younger brother of the second wife is indeed handsome, with two thick eyebrows reaching into the temples, bright and energetic eyes, but the light that bursts out from the eyes only shows that this person is quite scheming.

Ye Qingqing looked at the flowery and jade-like Fang family next to him, and then at the uncle next to him, feeling extremely moved in his heart.

As soon as the two entered the room, they greeted Xia Shuheng and Fang Shi first. Before they could speak, Fang Shi, who was smiling all over his face, spoke first.

"Mengmeng, take it easy, let me introduce you, this is my cousin Hu Renjie."

"Uncle!"

Seeing this, Hu Renjie hurriedly cupped his hands, and said with a smile, "You're welcome!"

After everyone's introduction, Xia Shuheng asked with a smile, "Mengmeng, is there anything serious in the shop?"

Xia Mengmeng didn't want to make her father worry, so she nodded, "The business in the store is not bad, nothing serious, even if there are some small things, shopkeeper Wang is here, and most of them are taken care of!"

Xia Shuheng nodded, then turned to look at Fang.

Seeing this, Fang turned to Xia Mengmeng and said with a smile.

"Mengmeng, the things in the store are too troublesome. You are a girl, and it is really difficult for you to spend so much time."

Hearing that Mrs. Fang finally understood her difficulties, Xia Mengmeng was a little moved, "Er Niang, for the sake of the Xia family, it's okay to suffer a little bit?"

Hearing this, Fang sighed, "Mengmeng, I know that you have spent a lot of time for the Xia family, and I also know that you have suffered a lot. Although I am not your mother, I feel uncomfortable in my heart." !"

After hearing these words, Xia Mengmeng was even more moved, so moved that her eyes were moist.

Fang smiled, "Mengmeng, no matter what, I thank you on behalf of Jizu!"

Xia Mengmeng hurriedly replied, "Er Niang, you are too polite, my stepfather is my younger brother, how can I ignore it!"

Fang nodded, and suddenly, she leaned forward a little, and then continued.

"Mengmeng, since things in the store are so hard, we are all women, so we simply leave him alone, what do you think?"

Xia Mengmeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and asked in confusion, "Er Niang, our Xia family can rely entirely on the income from the store to live, and nobody takes care of things in the store, how can this work?"

Fang shook her head with a smile, then turned her head and pointed at Hu Renjie who was sitting beside her, "Mengmeng, my cousin, when he was in the capital, he managed a jade shop for others, this time I know that I am a big sister. When I was in trouble, I immediately quit my job at the jade shop and came here to help me."

After hearing Fang's words, Xia Mengmeng suddenly understood why Hu Renjie came here?
Shocked, Xia Mengmeng hurriedly turned her head and looked at Xia Shuheng with a questioning look.

Seeing this, Xia Shuheng smiled wryly and sighed, "Mengmeng, your second mother is right, the store is so busy, you really worked hard, why don't you just let Mr. Hu do the work, so you don't have to worry about it! "

Hearing what her father said, Xia Mengmeng's expression changed suddenly, and even her body trembled uncontrollably.

"Father, everyone in our Xia family can point to the jade..."

"Dream!"

Before Xia Mengmeng finished speaking, she was suddenly interrupted by Mrs. Fang, "Mengmeng, my cousin is a man who has seen the world in the capital. If I hadn't begged him to come this time, he would not have come. !"

Speaking of this, Fang's tone paused for a moment, but then, without waiting for Xia Mengmeng to answer his own words, he continued on his own.

"Besides, I was too embarrassed to say it before, but since I've reached this point today, I'll just say it clearly!
The business of the Jade Store is getting worse and worse, and the little money we earn is not enough for the food and clothing of our Xiafu people, so I invited my cousin here, and I want him to help us earn more money!

Mengmeng, do you understand what I mean? "

Xia Mengmeng's face had turned pale, she turned her head to look at Xia Shuheng, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Father, my daughter has already done the math. Our jade shop can earn 1 taels of silver every month. Isn't this 1 taels of silver not enough for our Xia family's food and clothing for a month?"

"Humph!"

Before Xia Shuheng could speak, Fang said first, "Mengmeng, you don't know how expensive things are now..."

While speaking, Fang stretched out a hand full of rings, pointing to one of the rings, "Mengmeng, do you know how much this ring is?"

Speaking of this, Fang's tone paused for a moment, but then, without waiting for Xia Mengmeng to answer his own words, he continued on his own.

"Just this one ring is worth 3000 taels of silver. The jade shop earns 1 taels of silver a month and can only buy three rings. How can this be enough?"

After saying this, Fang winked at Hu Renjie who was beside him.

cough!
During the meeting, Hu Renjie immediately coughed lightly, stood up slowly, and cupped his hands at Xia Shuheng.

"Brother-in-law, when I was in the jade shop in the capital, under my management, it was estimated that the shop would make 15 taels of silver every month. If the jade shop of your Xia family only made 1 taels of silver every month, It's really too little!"

After hearing Hu Renjie's words, Fang immediately complained, "Master, you heard it too, the jade shop managed by my cousin can earn 15 taels of silver every month?"

Speaking of this, Fang's tone paused, and suddenly sneered, and said, "Master, our jade shop only makes 1 taels of silver, don't you think there is a problem?"

Hearing Fang's words, Xia Mengmeng couldn't bear it any longer, and said annoyedly, "Er Niang, how can this be compared? The traffic in the capital is so large, how can our jade shop compete with you?" How does the capital compare?"

Fang shook her head, turned to look at Xia Mengmeng, and sighed, "Mengmeng, I know, our place is not as good as the capital, but no matter how bad it is, the jade shop in the capital can earn 15 taels of silver every month , then we earn half less than them, do we have to earn 75000 taels a month?"

Speaking of this, Fang's tone paused, and Xia Shuheng turned to look, and then continued, "Master, I don't want to care about the past, even if Mengmeng only gave us 5000 taels of silver, I will accept it.

But it's not going to work now, the family is about to make ends meet, if this continues, our Xia family will be doomed! "

Hearing Fang's words, Xia Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, and the grievances in her heart suddenly burst out at this moment.

"Er Niang, I swear here, I never took any money..."

Before Xia Mengmeng finished speaking, she was interrupted by Fang's sneer, "Mengmeng, what am I talking about, I don't care about the past, even if you took more money from it, I won't I'll let you take it back."

Speaking of this, Fang's voice suddenly increased, "But it won't work in the future, I want to ask my cousin to manage our Xia family's jade store..."

"no!"

Before Fang's words were finished, Xia Shuheng interrupted sharply, "No, I don't agree. Mengmeng has managed the jade shop for so many years, and I think she has done a good job!"

Hearing this, Fang hurriedly winked at Hu Renjie again.

Hu Renjie smiled slightly, "Brother-in-law, if I take care of the jade store, I don't dare to say more for a month, but five or sixty thousand taels of silver should be no problem."

After hearing Hu Renjie's words, a smile appeared on Fang's face immediately, and he said hurriedly, "Master, did you hear that, as long as my cousin takes care of the jade shop, he can earn 6 to [-] yuan a month for us?" Two denarii."

Speaking of this, Fang's tone softened again, "Master, I know you are good to Mengmeng, but he is a girl after all, it's not an option to go on like this, don't you think?"

Hearing Fang's words, Xia Shuheng's heart suddenly moved, and he looked at his daughter with some heartache, and did not speak for a long time.

Seeing this, Mrs. Fang hurriedly continued, "Master, if I let my cousin take care of the jade shop, I will let my cousin and my stepfather learn for a period of time when he is on the right track. I can take care of the jade wares by myself, then, wouldn’t it be the best!”

Hu Renjie also smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, if Jizu wants to learn, I will definitely teach him seriously, and I will never let you down!"

The words of Fang Shi and Hu Renjie immediately touched Xia Shuheng's hesitant heart.

What Xia Shuheng is most worried about is Xia Jizu, fearing that he will not be able to support the family in the future.

If Hu Renjie taught him a little bit, maybe he would really become a talent in the future?
Seeing that Xia Shuheng was a little moved, Fang immediately struck while the iron was hot, and said with a smile, "Master, I know what you are most worried about is your ancestor, but if my cousin teaches him!"
