The son-in-law of a prosperous family

Zhao Yunchuan was wiping his hair while thinking about his plan to make money, and would ask Fang Huai some questions from time to time.

"Brother Huai, have you ever eaten salted duck eggs?"

“Have you ever eaten preserved eggs?”

“Have you ever eaten Liangpi?”

“Have you ever tried braised food?”

"Where's the Bobo Chicken?"

"Hot Pot?"

Fang Huai: “…”

He really didn't want to bother with Zhao Yunchuan because he had never eaten any of these things, nor had he even heard of them.

"Brother Huai, is it cold here in winter?"

"cold!"

Fang Huai breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, there was a question he could answer.

"We live in the north, so we start heating the kang at the end of September."

Zhao Yunchuan raised his eyelids: "What do you wear in winter?"

"Wear a cotton coat!"

The winter in Qingniu Town is extremely cold. Many poor families cannot survive the winter and some even freeze to death or starve to death. Eighteen years ago, he almost did not survive that winter either.

Fortunately, he met a soft-hearted God.

Zhao Yunchuan nodded seriously, and then asked, "Brother Huai, do our ducks shed feathers?"

Wow!

This question is really tricky!

Fang Huai thought about it carefully and replied: "I haven't paid attention to it... whether it sheds hair or not."

Who would have the time to go and see if a duck is shedding its feathers?

Weird!

"If it sheds, can we collect its hair?"

Fang Huai was even more confused. He looked at Zhao Yunchuan with a puzzled look on his face: "Put it away... for what?"

“It’s very useful in winter!”

Fang Huai nodded, it was not a big deal anyway.

During dinner, Bai Guihua announced an important decision: "I asked someone to check your horoscopes today. It's a good day. There are two auspicious days recently, the 28th of this month and the 18th of next month. The 28th is too late. I think the 18th of next month is a good day."

Zhao Yunchuan calculated silently, with a smile on his face.

In about thirty days, he will be married.

Fang Huai's ears turned slightly red: "Listen to my mother..."

Zhao Yunchuan: Plus one!

"Okay, then it'll be the 18th of next month! I'll make sure it's done properly!"

The whole family was in a good mood and everyone ate an extra bowl of rice.

Fang Dashan has always been reserved, and his wrinkled old face was full of smiles: "Today's meat soup is good..."

“It’s bone broth!”

“Bone broth?”

Bai Guihua: "Drink more, my uncle said it's good for your legs!"

After saying that, she served another bowl to her man.

Originally, Bai Guihua was at a loss as to what to do with the big bone. Isn’t this... meant for dogs to chew?

It was Zhao Yunchuan who told her the cooking method. She didn't expect that the soup would be so delicious. He felt that his son-in-law was really capable.

"It's hot now. If I could have a bowl of this in winter, I would definitely feel warm all over."

Zhao Yunchuan rolled his eyes.

In ancient times when material was scarce, there were truly business opportunities everywhere.

******

What? !

Is Zhao going to be the son-in-law of Huai? !

This news swept the entire village overnight, and everyone was shocked and regretful.

"That kid Zhao looks like a decent man, how can he be someone's son-in-law?"

"It's a disgrace to a man!"

Some people sneered: "What's the use of being good-looking? He has no land, so who would marry their daughter to him?"

Chen spat on the ground: "Bah! A freeloader!"

When she thought of the huge sum of money, her heart ached.

That money was saved up by her penny by penny.

Damn Zhao Yunchuan!

Damn Fang Huai!

Everyone rolled their eyes at her.

They had no ill will towards Zhao Yunchuan, and they spoke ill of him simply because they disagreed with what he did.

But for Chen...

That's pure disgust!

There was no one in the village who had not been scolded by Chen, from the seventy-year-old man to the baby in swaddling clothes, and even the stray dogs passing by would be scolded by her. She was in a state of scolding everything and everything.

Someone sneered: "When it comes to living off someone, who can compare to your Chen Xu? He just ate the free food of the Fang family, and now he wants to eat the free food of the Yuanwai family. Hahahahaha..."

Chen's face turned pale, and she stiffened her neck and loudly retorted: "Anyway, my son won't marry into the family! Only incompetent people like Zhao Yunchuan will marry into the family! My son is much more promising than him."

"Who said I have no skills? I'm the chef at Laiyuelou, and I get paid two taels of silver a month!"

"What?!"

"I heard it was three or two!"

Everyone was shocked: "Is this true?"

"Really? My eldest sister's second uncle's grandson was collecting swill at Laiyuelou, and that's what he said."

It's time for a break!

What place is Lai Yue Lou? It is the largest restaurant in town. Zhao Yunchuan is really capable. The monthly salary of three taels of silver is equivalent to the income of a family for half a year.

They regret it!

Why doesn't such a promising young man come to their family and become a son-in-law?

Chen felt as if thunder was rolling in the sky...

Chop her until she's charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

Some people took advantage of the situation and said, "Brother Huai, this is a good time to turn bad. It seems that Zhao is much more reliable than Chen Xu."

"No!"

Chen shouted angrily: "My son is a Tongsheng!"

"They make three taels of silver a month!"

"You short-sighted people, my son will ..."

"I'm going to be in high school?!"

Everyone's eyes were rolling up to the sky. It was the same thing they said over and over again, without any new ideas.

“You, you, you guys…”

Chen was outnumbered and left in anger!!!

Chen Xu saw Chen kicking the door in in a hurry and frowned slightly. How rude.

"Son, do you know that Zhao Yunchuan..."

Chen talked a lot in a gibberish, and when she finished, her throat was almost smoking. She scooped a bucket of water from the jar and gulped it down.

Chen Xu looked down on this kind of behavior...

Disgraceful to gentlemen!

Chen threw the ladle hard, still cursing: "That bastard is really lucky, he..."

"enough!"

Chen Xu stopped her in a low voice, and Chen shut up awkwardly.

No matter how arrogant and domineering she is outside, she will still be inferior to such a well-educated son. After all, she will have to rely on him for her old age.

"A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. How much can a cook achieve?"

Chen was indignant: "He only gets three taels of silver a month!"

"So what? When I get to high school, I can earn three hundred taels a month!"

After hearing this, Chen's expression finally looked better.

"My son is the best. I am waiting for you to bring honor to me in the future."

Chen Xu didn't respond, but held out his hand for money: "Mom, give me some silver!"

Chen's expression, which had just relaxed, instantly fell again.

"I have no money. You have returned all the money in the house to the Fang family."

Chen Xu was not in a hurry: "Oh, if I don't have money... I won't be able to please Miss Sun, and I'm afraid this marriage won't be possible!"

Chen gritted her teeth and thought that if she could marry Mr. Sun, she would have many good days in the future.

"Wait!"

Chen gave Chen Xu five cents of silver. Chen Xu weighed it and said dissatisfiedly, "It's not enough!"

Chen's eyes widened: "Five cents of silver is not enough?"

"That's Miss Sun. What can five cents of silver do?"

Chen reluctantly asked for another five cents of silver, and Chen Xu went out happily.

Let’s go to Yihong Courtyard to see Miss Peony first…

Write another love poem to Miss Sun!

What a happy life it is to be surrounded by beauties!
