After teasing her son for a while, Wang Xifeng stretched her aching back, handed the child to the nanny next to her, and moved to get out of bed.
"Grandma, are you going out?" Feng'er stood by and said cautiously: "It's windy outside today, and Sister Ping'er said it's not advisable to go out."
"How can you be so delicate?" Wang Xifeng pursed her lips in front of the dressing mirror. Her bright red lips were still plump and her cheeks looked very good. "Is Lin Zhixiao here?"
"Sister Xiaohong has gone to pick her up. We need to settle down there first. She will probably come here soon, and I'm afraid Sister Qiao will follow." A smile appeared on Feng'er's face.
A complex and ashamed look appeared on Wang Xifeng's face. Sister Qiao is still young now and may not be very sensible yet, but if she becomes sensible in two or three years, I'm afraid some things will not be covered up.
No matter how you call or explain the child next to you, it is said that he is adopted, but he is so close and you can see the clues in the usual attitudes of the people around him.
At that time, if Sister Qiao asks me as a mother, how will I answer?
Lies, deception, or talking about him?
And if Feng Ziying comes more often, I'm afraid Sister Qiao will also be able to see some problems, which are difficult to hide from others.
Feng'er was simple-minded and could not have thought of that, but Ping'er and Xiaohong would not have thought of it, nor would Lin Zhixiao and his wife. Xiaohong must have told her parents, so this time it was Lin Zhixiao. He came alone, but asked Xiaohong's mother to take Qiao Jieer with her in the capital and did not come over.
If we wait for another year and a half, until the child is weaned and can even learn to talk and walk, then it will be much more convenient to bring Sister Qiao here, and many words can cover up the past. It is really not appropriate now.
However, time waits for no one. Although the child is still young, making a living cannot be delayed. Wang Xifeng is not willing to delay at all.
Feng Ziying nodded, and Wang Xifeng put down most of her heart. Finally she still had some conscience and refused to admit it even after lifting her pants. This son must have made a great contribution, otherwise he might not have agreed so readily.
This cement business cannot be made by having money. The formula and process alone are said to be strictly confidential. People inside and outside the workshop want to inquire about it, but no one knows. There are also many people who try to experiment on their own. I spent a lot of money to come up with this recipe, but all ended in disappointment.
With the Shanshan businessmen coming to help, Wang Xifeng would just provide some money.
Wang Xin and Lai Wang both agreed. Wang Xin offered three thousand taels of silver, Lai Wang offered two thousand taels of silver, and Ping'er, Xiaohong and Feng'er also offered two thousand, one thousand and five hundred taels respectively. When Feng'er became a shareholder, it was Wang Xifeng who advanced 300 taels for her, and took out 200 taels himself to put the dowry at the bottom of the box.
Now Haitong Bank will lend some more money, so basically everything will go smoothly.
Lin Zhixiao needs to talk about this, because considering that he is responsible for the internal management of the entire workshop, Wang Xifeng is a woman after all and cannot be exposed for a long time. Lin Zhixiao has to worry about all these internal affairs, so the matter of buying a share is not Discuss carefully.
Here Wang Xifeng is still thinking about it, but over there Xiaohong has already received her father.
Lin Zhixiao also sighed when he saw that his daughter was still wearing the double-ring bun of an unmarried girl, but the moist luster between her eyebrows showed that she was a dispossessed woman.
Besides, she was a daughter, but she was also his own flesh and blood. Lin Zhixiao was still a little reluctant to part with her, but because he followed Uncle Feng, he was not a heartless and unjust person, so he felt at peace in his heart.
This time, his daughter's letter made him rush to Tianjin Wei. Lin Zhixiao was also a little confused. However, Xiaohong said in the letter that it was a good thing and it was also the grace of Uncle Feng. Lin Zhixiao naturally did not dare to neglect it, so he explained what was going on in the room over there. After settling in, he came over by boat.
"Second Mistress gave birth to a son? Uncle Feng came to see him too? How is the situation? Uh, what's Uncle Feng's attitude?"
After getting on the carriage, there were only Lin Zhixiao and Lin Hongyu in the carriage, and Lin Zhixiao was no longer so taboo.
Lin Zhixiao wanted to ask this first. It was related to Uncle Feng's attitude towards Wang Xifeng and even his own daughter, and it was also related to the future destiny of this large group of people.
Lin Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I am very happy. I held the child and made me laugh, and even gave him a name..."
Lin Zhixiao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's good. The Feng family doesn't have a male heir yet. It would be fine if other grandmothers can give birth to male heirs in the future. If not, then this child will be valuable."
"Grandma is very precious to this child, and has no intention of giving it to the Feng family." Lin Hongyu frowned, "Grandma will rely on this child for the rest of her life. It seems that the uncle has the same idea and has no intention of taking the child away."
"Huh, that's the case now, but what if the grandmothers in the Feng family can't give birth to a son? Will Uncle Feng still think like this? The Feng family is a single generation." Lin Zhixiao shook his head, disapproving.
"You can't, right? If you really want to take her away, what will happen to the second grandma?" Lin Hongyu's face changed slightly, "The second grandma can't enter the Feng family. There must be someone to rely on, or else there will only be another one. The second grandma is not in good health. Fortunately, it shouldn’t be a problem to raise one or two more,..."
"What about you? What do you think?" Lin Zhixiao asked suddenly without answering Lin Hongyu's question.
"Me?" Lin Hongyu blushed, but then wiped her forehead hair, "My daughter hasn't thought so much yet, and now is not the time to think about such things."
"Huh, if you don't have long-term worries, you will always have immediate worries. Second Grandma has you to rely on, so why don't you mention your own plans?" Lin Zhixiao hated that iron is not made of steel. "Second Grandma is just an outsider, and she has no right to interfere. What do you do, since Uncle Feng likes you, then you find a chance to give birth to a boy and a half girl for Uncle Feng, no matter whether you can enter the Feng family or not, at least you have someone to rely on."
Lin Hongyu raised his gaze hesitantly, as if thinking, and then said after a long time: "I'm afraid it's not the right time yet. My daughter is still young, so I don't have to worry about it. It would be better to wait for two years..."
"Wait two years? You can wait two more years?" Lin Zhixiao sneered, "There are so many women around Uncle Feng, have you seen the likes of Qingwen, Ying'er, Jin Chuan'er, Yu Chuan'er, Siqi and Yuanyang?" Are you still waiting? Miss Lin, Miss Miaoyu, and Zicuckoo have been married. Will it be your turn? After two years of freshness, will he still be so precious to you? Why don't you take advantage of the fact that he is still thinking about your body? Try to find a way to get pregnant, but if you really have to wait until later, you might not have the chance."
Lin Hongyu's expression changed slightly. Her father was right. There were too many women around me. Not to mention the serious wives and concubines, even the maids with similar status to myself were like crucian carp crossing the river.
In terms of appearance, Qingwen and the senior officials around Xue Baoqin are all better than me. In terms of closeness, the attitudes of Zicuckoo and Yuanyang beside Miss Lin are also very different, even around Second Mistress. There is also Ping'er. In terms of status, Ying'er, Zijuan, and Qingwen are all the maids around your grandmothers, and they are even more extraordinary.
I am lacking a bit of foundation in these aspects. The only thing is that I have taken the lead. If I really drag it on, who can say clearly what will happen in the future?
However, although this matter is important, there is something more important now. If this matter is solved, then I will not have to rely on my appearance to please Uncle Feng in the future. As the second mistress said, Uncle Feng There are many people around us who rely on their looks to get to the top, but we have to rely on our ability to make Uncle Feng feel different and inseparable.
"Father, we'll talk about this later. It's Mistress-in-law's wish to invite you over now. There's a big business..." Lin Hongyu told about the cement business. Lin Zhixiao's ears perked up as soon as he heard it. He waited until Lin Hongyu said After finishing, he pondered for a long time and asked: "Second Mistress proposed this matter, and Uncle Feng also agreed. In other words, Second Mistress said she wanted to bring us all in, and Uncle Feng also knew about it, and it was Second Mistress himself. You mean, Uncle Feng only knows that Second Mistress wants to do this for a living?"
"We all know that the second grandma also said that the uncle is still a little worried that our family will not be able to get much money,..." Lin Hongyu gritted her teeth, "My daughter has collected a thousand taels of silver to become a shareholder, and grandma also agreed,..."
"Where did you get a thousand taels of silver?" Lin Zhixiao was surprised. His daughter had not been with Uncle Feng for a long time. Besides, Uncle Feng liked her so much that he couldn't let her indulge in her. A thousand taels was not a small sum.
"My father gave my daughter five hundred taels, and my daughter originally saved more than one hundred taels. In addition, my daughter pawned the love jade pendant that my father gave me for four hundred taels..." The love jade pendant was the red jade when she lost her virginity. Lin Hongyu pawned the jade pendant given by Feng Ziying for this investment.
Lin Zhixiao was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and then said: "I'll get you four hundred taels. You hurry up and redeem the jade pendant. Don't let Uncle Feng know about it and he won't be happy."
Lin Hongyu felt warm in her heart. Her father still cared about her and nodded: "Okay, my second grandma may have to talk to my father about the investment. If my father can contribute more, he will contribute as much as possible. I have asked Uncle, uncle said, this is a job of counting money while lying down. The more you work at the front, the more you will earn. It is a good job that will not go out of style for decades..."
"Oh? Uncle Feng really said that?" Lin Zhixiao was convinced, and raised this business to a new level in his heart.
Feng Ziying should not lie to his daughter. After all, it was a yellow flower daughter who followed him. He also gave his daughter five hundred taels of silver to let her buy shares. This shows that this business is really promising, and he has a little fortune. I lost most of it during the inspection, but I still had some savings, but this time I had to take a chance.
