"Ma'am, I."
"Cousin, what you said makes sense. Business relies on word of mouth. If your medicinal materials are better than those of the Wang family, how can you be squeezed out by others?"
Xie Chuntao came out of the kitchen and interrupted Chen Jing'er's next words with a warm voice.
"Doing business depends on your ability. Even if my wife goes to stand up for you, the people in Huaicheng will go to your herbal medicine shop because of my wife's face. If your medicine doesn't work, who owns this pot? It has not tarnished Mr. Liu's good reputation. "
Xie Chuntao was annoyed that Chen Jing'er didn't pay attention, so she directly asked the Xu family for help. This not only brought injustice to the Bai family, but also made Xu family embarrassed.
Although the Xu family had a feud with the Bai family, the feud had long since disappeared, and the Xu family had taken care of Erlang in Huaicheng. Xie Chuntao was very grateful to the Xu family.
She would not let Chen Jing'er put the Xu family in trouble.
Xie Chuntao was sincere, fearing that the Xu family would not know who Chen Jing'er was, and it would be bad for her to ruin Mr. Liu's reputation for the sake of the Bai family.
This is not Xie Chuntao's overthinking, the fundamental reason is that Chen Jing'er is such a person.
Once there was a chance for help, she would hold on and forcefully tie the person to her boat.
"Madam, my cousin is ignorant, don't take it to heart." Xie Chuntao turned to Mrs. Xu and said.
"It's okay. The Bai family is the Bai family, and relatives are relatives. I can still tell the difference clearly." Mrs. Xu said.
Chen Jing'er's face was darkened by the words stabbed by Xie Chuntao and Xu.
Before she came to the Bai family, she had sworn to her parents-in-law that she would be able to take advantage of her aunt's relationship with the prefect to take away the Wang family drug store. However, not only did she not succeed, but she was humiliated instead.
He also broke off a valuable hairpin.
If she could get close to the Queen Mother and be named a village head or princess, she would definitely trample the prefect's wife under her feet.
Xie Chuntao and Xu ignored Chen Jing'er and continued chatting.
Chen Jing'er was left out by Bai Sanzhuang and was frustrated by Xu. She stood awkwardly for a while, then raised her head and met Xiao Fuyuan's smiling eyes, and her heart trembled.
"Xiao Yuanbao, come here, come to your aunt."
When Mrs. Xu saw Xiao Fuyuan and Cuicui, she put aside her displeasure with Chen Jing'er and waved to Xiao Fuyuan.
Little Fuyuan came to Mrs. Xu and stood next to her very obediently and listened to her praise.
Mrs. Xu saw dirt and grass juice on Cuicui's clothes, and knew that she had scavenged again, so she said, "Where did you just follow Xiao Yuanbao?"
Cuicui said with a smile: "I walked around the village with Xiao Yuanbao and picked persimmons and dates."
Mrs. Xu nodded and saw Bai Zhaomei standing in the corridor from a distance. She knew that no matter how flirtatious they were, they were both measured people and there would be no gossip.
"Auntie, I like the village, let's spend some time here." Cuicui begged.
"Your uncle is very busy these days, we have to go back quickly." Mrs. Xu said.
Cuicui was quite unhappy after hearing this.
Mrs. Xu glanced at Cuicui, a little girl who had not yet left the court often wanted to live in her husband's house, and was overheard gossiping. Even if the Bai family didn't mind, she wouldn't leave Cuicui alone without her mother-in-law nagging her.
Cuicui poked her head at the door of the kitchen, staring at the stove eager to try.
Xiao Fuyuan grabbed Cuicui. Last time Cuicui almost blew up the kitchen when she cooked a pot, it was better not to cause trouble to her sister-in-law.
Cuicui turned back to Xiao Fuyuan and said, "I won't go in."
He sniffed again and said, "It smells so good."
Xie Chuntao smiled and said: "The meal will be ready soon, and there will be Cuicui's favorite crucian carp cake."
Xie Chuntao is attentive and knows the tastes of everyone in her family, even Cuicui, who has only had one meal at home.
Cuicui clapped her hands and said, "Great."
Mrs. Xu glanced at Cuicui and said, "She's always so frizzy."
After hearing this, Xie Chuntao smiled and said to Mrs. Xu, "Don't be constrained by Cuicui. Our family doesn't have so many rules. My mother-in-law never sets rules for her daughter-in-law. Cuicui will know when she comes home from now on."
Mrs. Xu was very envious after hearing this.
She felt that her life was not as comfortable as Xie Chuntao's. At least Zhen would not set rules for Xie Chuntao, nor would she give Xie Chuntao a concubine.
She couldn't compare to Xie Chuntao in this regard. Liu Hong's mother-in-law would show off from time to time and tolerate the rules, but she always wanted to give Liu Hong a concubine, especially these days, which was even more excessive.
I bought two girls with big hips and put them at home, saying they were for Liu Hongsheng's son.
Xu was troubled just thinking about it.
Liu Hong is not interested in taking concubines now, but he is always persuaded by his mother, so he may change his mind in the future.
It would be great if she could have a daughter as cute as Xiao Fuyuan, but Liu Hong kept thinking about having a daughter as cute as Xiao Fuyuan, but Xu's belly had not moved since she gave birth to Liu Shu.
"It would be great if all the mothers-in-law in the world were like Auntie and Grandma Bai. My grandma is not good. She always has to set rules for my aunt." Cuicui said cheerfully. She spent some time at her uncle's house and felt quite sympathetic to Xu. The sadness behind his glorious days.
When Mrs. Xu was exposed, not only was she not angry, but she said to Cuicui in a serious tone: "So why did your uncle promise you to the Bai family? He just wanted you to feel comfortable in the future."
"I'm not telling you that when you get married in the future, your mother-in-law will not set any rules for you, your sisters-in-law will be harmonious, and your sister-in-law will be sensible. These are good things that cannot be compared to those wealthy families in Huaicheng."
Mrs. Xu said this many times, but Cuicui blushed in front of Xiao Fuyuan and Xie Chuntao!
Xu's chatterbox opened up and she began to confide in Xie Chuntao.
"Well, your life is still comfortable, your parents-in-law are not in trouble, and your son is promising."
When Mrs. Xu saw the old man cooking the pot, she felt more and more envious of Xie Chuntao. One of her two sons was by her side, and the other was taking the exams for merit and fame. They were perfect.
But I only have one Liu Shu, and I am still angry with myself every day.
"That's because Madam doesn't understand the hardships we have in the countryside. I think you can't live as well as you do. Mr. Liu is such a big official, and Liu Shu is sensible." Although Xie Chuntao didn't envy Mr. Xu at all, it was necessary. Business nonsense still needs to be blown.
As for Xu's mother-in-law, Xie Chuntao met her once at the Lotus Festival, and she didn't look like an old lady she was familiar with.
But Xie Chuntao couldn't complain along with Mr. Xu, and the relationship wasn't to that extent.
After hearing Xie Chuntao's words, Mrs. Xu shook her head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Liu Shu is too weak, unlike you who have two sons. I want another one, and I don't know if I can have one."
Talking about having a baby stirred up the pain in Xie Chuntao's heart. She said, "Who wouldn't want it? If I could have a daughter like my sister-in-law, I would be a vegetarian every day."
Mrs. Xu pulled Xiao Fuyuan, who was standing quietly eating cakes aside, and said, "I also want to have a daughter. My family also said that whoever gives birth to a beautiful girl like Xiao Yuanbao will have great success. I also I don’t want to be like Xiao Yuanbao, just a daughter.”
Liu Hong was very eager to have a daughter. Mrs. Xu secretly hoped to have a daughter to see if her mother-in-law would give Liu Hong a concubine.
Mrs. Xu said while touching Xiao Fuyuan's little head lovingly.
Xiao Fuyuan said innocently: "Already have it."
Xiao Fuyuan's cuteness successfully made Mrs. Xu laugh, and she couldn't help but ask: "What does it mean to already have it?"
Xiao Fuyuan blinked her big eyes and said, "Little sister!"
Xu was so shocked that she almost fell to the ground.
