Provoking the villain, madly criticizing the tyrant for kidnapping my sedan chair for the bridal cha
Chapter 215 Ji Shen finds Luo Hanzi quite pleasing to the eye for the first time
Xu Tianxing's words hit Ji Shen's heart, and his eyes were filled with smiles.
He looked at Lin Lixia expectantly.
Lin Lixia's eyes were full of joy.
The reputation of her noodle shop has become so good that customers want to open a branch for her?
Mom!
So excited!
Then she thought about Lu Xuanwei, whom she had offended, in the capital, and her face suddenly fell.
Seeing Lin Lixia's downcast face, Luo Zisu reacted after thinking about it for a moment.
"Sister, if you want to go to the capital, just go. My brother passed the scholar examination this time and happened to go back to Beijing with Wuhen to celebrate the Spring Festival. With my brother here, Lu Xuanwei just wants to cause trouble, so he will go to his brother first!"
Seeing Luo Zisu's proud and fearless look, Yun Wuhen felt a headache.
"Fool Luo, let's make an agreement first. You can come back to Beijing with me, but you are not allowed to provoke Lu Xuanwei again. This is the only legitimate son of the Lu family. After being kicked out by you, I want to kill you in my dreams."
"Am I afraid of him?" Luo Zisu looked proud and raised the 'Peach Shadow Chasing Soul' on his wrist: "If he dares to come, I will kill him!"
"..." Yun Wuhen looked like a fool: "Fool Luo, who gave you the illusion that Lu Xuanwei would fall twice in one fell swoop?"
"Also, Idiot Luo, your grandfather and your eldest brother know that you are going to cause trouble when you return to Beijing this time. I guess they sent someone overnight to take you back to Plum Blossom City."
Being repeatedly undermined by Yun Wuhen, Luo Zisu looked dissatisfied: "Yun Wuhen, are you the only one to open your mouth?"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Lin Lixia quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Brother Zisu, if you set off at this time, you won't be able to make it in time for New Year's Eve even if you work hard, right?"
Luo Zisu nodded, with some hesitation on his face: "Sister, brother is also thinking, should we spend New Year's Eve in Plum Blossom City before setting off? Or should we set off now to reunite with each other during the Lantern Festival?"
Thinking of the sworn brother's ability to cause trouble, Lin Lixia quickly said: "Brother Zisu, it is definitely safer for you to follow General Yun."
"Besides, the most important thing is to be lively during the festival. With so many of you celebrating the festival together, the atmosphere will be right, so it should be fun."
Luo Zisu thought along this line of thought and thought it seemed pretty good: "Sister, how about you take your eldest brother with you and let's go to the capital for a study tour? I'll take you to meet my grandfather!"
"Luo Zisu's suggestion is good!" Ji Shen felt that Luo Hanzi was quite pleasing to his eye for the first time.
"..." The master's thoughts became more and more blatant, and Xu Tianxing almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Continue the topic just now.
"Miss Lin, actually, if you go to the capital to open a noodle restaurant, you may not necessarily do it yourself. I can help you recommend a very reliable cook."
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Lixia still felt that the risks of this matter were greater than the profits.
"No, I don't have enough manpower!"
"Li Xia, I, I can do it!" Wen An Ning mustered up her courage and looked at Lin Li Xia with a blushing face. She didn't know whether she was excited or shy.
"During your study tour, I helped my aunt in the store for a few days. Whether it was stir-frying or rolling out noodles, I can do it!"
"Li Xia, I have worked for the family since I was a child, and I am also very quick and diligent in my work..."
"Sister An Ning, I know!" Lin Lixia interrupted Wen Anning.
Farm girls in this era basically helped the family with work since they were young, so they could barely survive. There were very few lazy women.
She was just surprised that Wen Anning, who was so timid, wanted to open a noodle restaurant in the capital.
"Sister An Ning, are you not getting married?"
"Li Xia, I'm opening a noodle shop for you. Are you going to treat me like an aunt, taking care of food, drink, living, buying new clothes, and monthly money?"
"That's natural!" Lin Lixia nodded.
"Li Xia, my aunt will work for you. She won't be beaten or criticized, and no one will teach her. My aunt said that if she can't meet the right person, it would be better to open a noodle shop for you instead of letting Xiaohui suffer in her husband's family."
As he said that, Wen Anning grabbed Lin Lixia's hand, with a bit of anxiety on her face: "Lixia, I'm afraid of getting married, so I might as well open a noodle shop for you!"
Seeing Wen An Ning's worried look, Lin Lixia felt very complicated.
In any era, it is unfair to women!
In this era, women are even more harsh!
She never thought about using the idea of equality between men and women to change the views of women in this era, because she knew that this was not feasible.
Blue Star, although a woman cannot have a homestead in her name, she can buy real estate in a big city, open a company, and have her own business.
In this era, women's qualifications for establishing a household were extremely stringent. All land deeds, shops, etc. had to be in the name of men. They strictly followed the rules of obeying the father at home, the husband when married, and the son after the death of the husband.
Not every girl is like her and can meet a father and brother who are infinitely tolerant of her.
A girl who is not favored by her father and brothers at home will try her best to win his favor after marrying into her husband's family.
However, in fact, human nature is mean. The humbler it is, the more despised it is.
Like Wen Anning, no matter whether she climbs a high tree or marries a poor scholar, she is not as confident as opening a noodle shop to make money.
"Sister An Ning, can my aunt and uncle agree?"
"I disagree!" Wen Anning lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Li Xia, my father only wants fifty taels of bride price."
"Fifty taels of bride price?" Lin Lixia was dumbfounded. No wonder her aunt said that Wen Anning couldn't find a suitable candidate.
In Plum Blossom City, a girl like Wen Anning could be sold to a wealthy family as a maid for twenty taels of silver.
Seeing Lin Lixia's shocked look, Wen Anning's eyes turned red with shame, but she knew that this was her only chance to change her life.
"Li Xia, at first, my father set a betrothal price of twenty taels. Later, when he saw that Xiaoxue was worth fifty taels, he..."
"He's crazy!" Lin Lixia gritted her teeth and interrupted Wen Anning: "Where's my aunt? Doesn't she care?"
"My mother... doesn't want to get divorced!" There was a hint of self-mockery in Wen Anning's voice.
"She said that if my eldest brother is as noisy as my aunt, it will be difficult for my eldest brother to get married in the future."
Lin Lixia sneered, "So, my aunt will give up your daughter for the sake of her son?"
"It doesn't count!" Wen Anning gently wiped the tears from her eyes, looked up at Lin Lixia and said bluntly.
"Li Xia, Mom said you have the ability, so asking you to find a place for me will definitely be more reliable than being pointed out to others by my father."
Lin Lixia: "..."
Lin Lidong stood up: "Xia Xia, I'll go find our dad, and let dad go find my eldest uncle..."
"What's the use?" Lin Lixia stood up and pulled Lin Lidong to sit down, feeling a little sorry for Wen An Ning's experience.
"If my aunt doesn't stand out, our names are not justified. After all, Sister An Ning's surname is Wen, and she is a girl from the Wen family!"
Lin Lidong's voice was full of frustration: "Then I can only give my uncle fifty taels?"
"This is the simplest, most effective and fastest way to solve the problem." Lin Lixia looked at Wen Anning aside: "Sister Anning, what do you think?"
Wen Anning wiped her tears and held Lin Lixia's hand with a pleading look on her face.
"Li Xia, my aunt told me that the monthly salary you give her plus the year-end dividend is almost twenty-five taels a year. Can you lend me fifty taels first and then deduct it from my monthly salary?"
