The old lady rarely knocked on the cold branches.
Maybe the old lady realized the importance of Hanzhi, or maybe it was because the old lady was busy organizing Gu Yundian's marriage, so Hanzhi was left free.
However, in order to show the upper class society that she had a friendly relationship with Hanzhi's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the old lady took Hanzhi to many upper-class gatherings.
If this had been done in the past, Hanzhi would not have had the opportunity to enter such a place.
Because the old lady hates Hanzhi very much.
But it's different now. The old lady has to establish a character.
If she didn't bring Hanzhi with her and let everyone see Hanzhi's appearance, there would be rumors outside that she was an evil mother-in-law.
Gu Yundian's marriage was not easy to arrange.
Gu Yunhan married the daughter of a merchant and married the daughter of a merchant.
The old lady didn't want Gu Yunhan to marry a noble girl anymore.
She put her remaining hope in Gu Yundian.
The old lady felt that Gu Yundian must marry a noble girl from a scholarly family.
At that time, Gu Yundian might even be able to embark on an official career.
A man running those shops is nothing, he is just a businessman.
The old lady has always looked down upon businessmen.
When Gu Yunhan was doing business, the old lady was unhappy and thought that Hanzhi had led Gu Yunhan to evil, so she wanted to poison Hanzhi.
Now that Gu Yundian is doing business, it is much better than causing trouble outside.
So the old lady can bear it.
Hanzhi is in good health now.
The old lady felt that the shop would still be in Hanzhi's hands at that time.
After all, when Hanzhi was the housekeeper, there was never any trouble in the family, and he was generous to both her and Gu Yunzhu.
When Hanzhi manages the shop, he can make a lot of money outside and come back.
When the time comes, Gu Yundian will also embark on an official career, and he might even be able to become a nobleman. Then he will be the hope of the Hou family.
As for Gu Yunhan, the old lady had no one to rely on before, and Gu Yundian was ineffective.
Now the old lady doesn't like Gu Changpo very much.
Anyone can like Gu Yunhan, but he can't like that woman.
So as soon as Gu Changpo was born, the old lady asked Gu Yunhan to take Gu Changpo back to the Hou Mansion, and she would educate him personally.
The purpose was to prevent Gu Changpo and Liu Hanyan from being intimate.
The old lady is a master at torturing people's hearts.
She knew that Liu Hanyan wanted to see Gu Changpo, so she deliberately refused to let Liu Hanyan see him even once.
She was busy beating Liu Hanyan every day, she hated it!
Her husband just liked this vixen.
And now, her son only likes this vixen and is so fascinated that he loses his mind.
She didn't even listen to her mother.
Thinking of the obedient Gu Yundian, the old lady felt much relieved. Fortunately, she had another son.
She personally raised this son and kissed her since he was a child.
She must plan a good marriage for him.
Hanzhi was naturally aware of the old lady's plan, but she would not tell Gu Yunhan.
Gu Yunhan definitely didn't expect that the old lady would give up on him.
This is why Hanzhi must bring Liu Hanyan into the house.
The purpose is to make the old lady feel unhappy.
In addition, Hanzhi often gave Gu Yundian advice in his ear.
People's ambitions will slowly expand.
Hanzhi sat in the yard and counted the books. She was now managing a pharmacy, so overall it was quite relaxing.
Hanzhi had sorted out the government's accounts when he was pretending to be ill, so it wasn't tiring to take care of them.
"Sister-in-law, are those things said outside true?"
Gu Yundian rushed in and asked Hanzhi.
"What did the second master say?"
Hanzhi asked with confusion.
"It's just about those shops. Are you really poisoned?"
Gu Yundian asked Hanzhi seriously.
"Second Master, you just need to understand that no matter what happens, a person should retain a little conscience. I just want to survive in this prince's mansion. It doesn't matter if I don't care about the family. In the future, when the bride comes, she will come. Steward, I can also hand over this stewardship.
I just want to live, that's all I have.
Second Master, you may not have understood before, but I saw that there have been a lot of face creams and rouges similar to ours on the market recently, and you didn’t have an attack, you just endured it, so I understood that you have grown up. "
Hanzhi said miserably to Gu Yundian.
Gu Yundian is a typical proud and complacent person. Compared with Gu Yunhan, he has two more consciences.
As long as someone suffers miserably, he will let others take advantage of him in order to satisfy his own vanity.
Hanzhi did not answer directly.
Because these words were answered directly, it was impossible for Gu Yundian to offend his elder brother just to vent his anger on her.
"Sister-in-law, you don't even know that those people are so abominable. They just copy our products and spread rumors everywhere to belittle our family's deeds."
Gu Yundian was furious when he heard Hanzhi say that someone had copied his rouge.
Nothing made him more angry.
"Second Master is smart, and there is no smoke without fire. These things are getting more and more serious in Beijing, and there must be someone behind them. As for those counterfeit products, as long as Second Master continues to launch new products, they will only be able to follow him forever in this life. Later, I lived off the second master's creativity.
Everything in the world is subject to change, nothing remains the same. "
"Sister-in-law, you are right, those people can only buy my leftover food. As long as I launch new products, they will definitely not be able to surpass me."
"Second Master spends his days drinking and having fun in brothels, so he has gained a lot of experience. This capital is a backwater with little change over the years. Why don't Second Master organize an oiran feast and spend a lot of money to select an oiran?"
Invite some well-known literati, they are the most arty.
Wouldn't it be better to promote our new rouge products in this oiran feast venue?
The oiran's make-up, headband, and clothes are all designed by someone special. We make these accessories and clothes in advance. We have so many shops, so it would be a pity to just sell rouge.
The clothes of the oirans are just for the oirans to wear, and they can be auctioned when the time comes. "
"Sister-in-law, these words are really wonderful!"
Gu Yundian's eyes widened just after hearing this.
He liked the sound of the oiran's feast.
If such a banquet can be organized, one can imagine how famous he will be, and how many people will know his name by then. It makes me happy just thinking about it.
But if he wanted to hold such a grand banquet, Gu Yundian was a little worried when he thought about the money in his hand.
"Sister-in-law, I just don't have much cash in hand right now."
"Second Master, the quality of the shop lies in the quality, not the abundance. Now in this family, only the Second Master can protect me. If something happens to me, the shop will definitely fall on the unknown son of the outside wife.
Therefore, in this family, I most hope that you can make a difference.
Although you are a bit dandy, you are kinder than your brother and are tolerant of others.
This shop is just a dead thing, the key is that you can get better. "
Hanzhi said to Gu Yundian very thoughtfully.
