Xie Rongzhao obviously couldn't accept this statement, but she was a petty person, so there was nothing she could do.
"Uncle's unwillingness to adopt Little Wolf should have nothing to do with those rumors."
Xie Rongzhao was puzzled and asked with curiosity on his face: "Then what do you think it is because of it?"
Cheng Jingzhou thought for a while and tried his best to speak in words she could understand: "Uncle is not at home, and you and Aunt Xie are not liked by Grandma in the first place. If another adopted son with a bad reputation comes into the house, I'm afraid they will have more This is an excuse to suppress you and Auntie."
Xie Rongzhao's eyes widened. Obviously, she had not thought of this level.
Cheng Jingzhou saw that she understood, so he continued: "Your original intention was to let the little wolf live a life of food and clothing, and to solve the problems of your father and mother. But the problem is, if it really happens If you adopt the little wolf now, it will harm you. The life of the little wolf in your house may be even worse than in his uncle's house."
Xie Rongzhao blinked, yes, she ignored the partiality of grandpa and grandma.
At that time, if something doesn't go well with the first wife, it can be directly blamed on their second wife, and the reasons are all ready.
Who let the second wife adopt a "brother-in-law" misfortune?
At that time, not only will Little Wolf be disliked and bullied by his family, but he and his mother will also suffer at home. This is the outcome that my father least wants to see.
Therefore, I am still short-sighted.
"You're right, I took it too much for granted. I should trust my father. He is so smart. There must be a reason for what he does or doesn't do."
Cheng Jingzhou touched her head: "It's good if you think so. My uncle is studying abroad now. He mainly wants to see more and learn more. He was originally worried about you. If there is one more person who needs his care, he will How can I study with peace of mind?"
"Well, I made a mistake. I should trust Dad a little more."
After some words were said, the little knot in Xie Rongzhao's heart disappeared.
She always thought it was because her father didn't like Xie Xiaolang and thought it was not good for him to have the reputation of being a relative.
It turns out that she thought of her father too shallowly, and it was true that she was short-sighted.
"From now on, together with Fourth Brother, we will help more when we can. Uncle didn't stop us from helping Xiaolang at first, because he probably felt pity for him. If he really didn't like Xiaolang, how could he treat you and Si Brother, don’t you care or ask?”
Xie Rongzhao's eyes lit up, yes, my father was at home during the Chinese New Year.
Moreover, he might not know much about the fact that they secretly helped Xie Xiaolang, but later on, the eldest brother helped Xiaolang out, so his father must have known about it.
"I knew my father was the best!"
When Cheng Jingzhou saw her smiling happily again, he knew that this girl was full of energy again.
The shopkeeper from the cloth shop came over. In addition to the normal account books, he also specially ordered the cloth that had been soaked in water.
"Sir, Miss Xie is really amazing. After processing it according to the method she said, there is really no problem with this cloth. It's just that when one of us tried it on, three to five feet of the cloth was damaged. Hurry up. The younger one processed all the things that were soaked by the rain. There are one hundred and twenty-two pieces of cloth in front and back.
After the cloth was processed, the villain specially made a price reduction. Most people saw that the cloth only had some wrinkles and didn't mind. Moreover, not only did we not lose money on a piece of cloth, we also made a profit! "
Cheng Jingzhou smiled. Who would have thought that Guobao's casual words would make the shopkeeper no longer worried.
He has seen that the profit from a piece of cloth is not much, on average, it is twenty cents. If it is normal fine cloth, the profit from a piece of cloth can be twenty-six cents.
Regardless of the salt and labor used, they are still profitable.
One hundred and twenty-two pieces of cloth, after such an operation, not only did not lose money, but also made 2,440 cash, which is quite a lot.
Cheng Jingzhou asked the cloth shop to send him two bolts of brighter-colored cotton as a thank-you gift for the good boy.
The main reason is that with this method, they don't have to panic if something goes wrong next time, let alone get rid of defective products at a low price.
Cheng Jingzhou originally wanted to give Xie Rongzhao some money. After all, little girls like money, but the problem was that if he gave too much, the little girl wouldn't want it; if he gave too little, he felt that he couldn't afford it, so he might as well just give cotton cloth.
Because there is a lot of rain here, they don't grow cotton. Only those who are not clear-headed will think of growing cotton.
Because it is not grown, this cotton is much more expensive than the cotton in the north.
Therefore, most ordinary people in Gaoyang County wear Gebu or linen clothes, and Gebu is divided into thick and thin. Those with slightly better conditions will wear fine Gebu, which is more comfortable.
Xie Rongzhao looked at the two newly delivered pieces of cotton and thought about asking Cheng Jingzhou to change them for a cyan or gray one.
"Do you want to make new clothes for your father?"
Xie Rongzhao shook his head: "I didn't do it, I don't know how. My grandma did it."
Xie Xiuwen must have some decent clothes when he goes out.
There is a lot of rain here, and clothes often dry slowly, so Liu Ruolan prepares a few more sets of clothes for Xie Xiuwen throughout the year than others, so as not to have trouble changing and washing, which makes people laugh.
"There's no need to change it. I'll just send one to Xie's house another day."
Xie Rongzhao giggled, and Cheng Jingzhou simply picked her up, then gave Xie Rongzhao a kiss and kissed her.
This kiss also stunned Cheng Jingzhou.
Why did the little darling kiss him suddenly?
Xie Rongzhao looked at his red ears and laughed loudly.
"Brother Jingzhou is the best! I like brother Jingzhou the most!"
Cheng Jingzhou pretended to be calm, but the corners of his lips that could not be suppressed clearly betrayed his good mood.
"Brother Jingzhou, I heard that Third Aunt Cheng went to beg Grandma Cheng again. Do you think Cheng Yuanyuan will be released this time?"
Cheng Jingzhou's face sank: "I guess she will be released this time. The third aunt's birthday is coming soon. At this time, she has a legitimate reason to beg her grandmother. In addition, she is pregnant, and her grandmother will definitely not be willing to let her go." Sad and sad.”
Xie Rongzhao nodded in agreement. This Cheng Yuanyuan was really troublesome. No matter what wrong she did, there was always someone to help her deal with the aftermath!
If she hadn't clearly known who the heroine was, she would have almost thought that Cheng Yuanyuan was also protected by heaven.
"Then after she comes out, will she target you and big brother? Otherwise, you should come to the inner courtyard less often in the future. I miss you, so I will go to the outer courtyard to find you, so that she will not deliberately cause trouble for you again."
Cheng Jingzhou felt very happy when he saw her looking like she was thinking about him.
"Don't worry, she doesn't dare. But you have to be careful. Just stay in the yard if nothing happens. My mother is here, so she doesn't dare to mess around." (End of Chapter)
