He Hua's provocation didn't happen once or twice. Zhao Jiajun naturally didn't take it seriously at first. After all, they were all in the capital now, and Wang Ximeng's family were all in Gaoyang County, not close to each other at all.
But unexpectedly, when Zhao Jiajun came back one day, he found that there was an extra person at the dinner table, and it was his uncle!
"Why is he here?"
Different from Zhao Jiajun's obvious reaction, Wang Ximeng just said lightly: "It's inconvenient for me now, but we can't cut off our income, and I don't feel comfortable hiring outsiders, so I asked my eldest brother to come over and help for a while."
Wang Dalang has been in the capital for seven or eight days, running out almost every day, and his residence is also arranged in the front yard. If Zhao Jiajun hadn't come back today, they wouldn't have been able to eat at the same table.
In the past, Wang Ximeng would not have cared about this, but now there is a lotus at home, and he has to avoid suspicion, so Wang Dalang has never dared to walk into the inner courtyard.
Zhao Jiajun once again thought of the lotus reminder before, and now he looked at Wang Dalang with a much more complicated look.
Wang Ximeng ignored him and continued to eat by herself. She was about to give birth and her appetite was very good now, but she had to wake up more often at night, which was a bit troublesome.
Before Zhao Jiajun could say anything, He Hua said, "Husband, not only Wang Dalangjun is here, but my sister's eldest sister-in-law is also here."
"Huh? Then why haven't you seen anyone?"
Wang Ximeng put down her chopsticks and wiped the corners of her mouth before saying, "Sister-in-law has gone to clean their own place. Brother will leave soon after dinner."
Zhao Jiajun's mind was buzzing, don't they live here?
"Husband, my sister-in-law came here mainly to help take care of me. I am about to give birth, and someone must take care of me during the confinement period. I originally said that my grandma is here, so there is no need to bother, but my mother-in-law is worried and feels that I have to let her go. It's safe to have someone take care of it myself. I also thought that you wanted to study and I couldn't disturb you, so I agreed."
Zhao Jiajun calmed down now.
There seems to be nothing wrong with it.
They are here to take care of the mother, how normal!
And they are living here now, and it is true that there are no elders here. He went to the academy, Wang Ximeng is going to have confinement, and there is no serious master in the house. This is indeed inappropriate.
Zhao Jiajun also knows some rules. He can't really let a concubine show up to welcome guests. It would be a humiliation to the guests, and others would also say that the Zhao family does not understand the rules.
Now that my sister-in-law is here, it would be appropriate.
At least it won't be criticized.
However, Zhao Jiajun still had some opinions about Wang Dalang's coming to the capital. He always felt that Wang Ximeng did not discuss it with him and clearly did not take him seriously.
And since you don’t worry about outside business, why don’t you let your family come over? Why must Wang Dalang come?
Zhao Jiajun had an inexplicable feeling that Wang Ximeng's elbows were turned outward.
Zhao Jiajun felt unhappy, and naturally the lotus flowers couldn't fall well at night.
Wang Ximeng looked away. Her delivery date was coming soon, and she was just waiting for her sister-in-law to move in with her. As for whether Zhao Jiajun was satisfied, she didn't care at all.
After all, she earned all the money in the family. She has the final say on how she wants to spend it and who she wants to spend it on.
Wang Ximeng asked Wang Dalang to come over mainly because the teahouse was about to open. She was worried that everything would be left to Wang Qin'er's people. Besides, Wang Dalang was also literate and good at arithmetic, so she thought of letting Wang Dalang stay in the shop to keep him in check. Just being the boss in public will save Zhao Jiajun from worrying about him when the business gets bigger in the future.
But after the teahouse really opened, Wang Dalang stopped working.
He felt that he was not the one, so he simply told his sister and took over the task of delivering some cosmetics and powder to Feng County. As for the teahouse, he would not get involved.
Wang Ximeng was a little angry with her elder brother for his incompetence, but she also felt that his elder brother was self-aware and did not want to ruin his business, and he had good intentions, so in the end he gave Wang Dalang fifty taels of silver as hard work. After all, he was helping him with his hard work. After working for several days, we couldn't let him suffer.
Of course, no one except the brother and sister knew about this money.
Fifty taels of silver is not enough for Zhao Jiajun himself to spend for a year, but for Wang Dalang, it is enough to feed their entire family for several years, and it is still enough to eat white flour and rice.
Xie Rongzhao kept people staring at Wang Ximeng, just to see how far the two of them could go if she didn't take revenge.
Unexpectedly, although Wang Ximeng's business was hit, he could react so quickly and open up a new path.
Although Xie Rongzhao has suppressed the idea of killing people, it does not mean that she is happy to watch Wang Ximeng become richer and richer.
Therefore, she naturally had to find a way to stop the business in Feng County.
Xie Rongzhao naturally dislikes this kind of small business, but she can persuade others to do it.
For example, her clan uncle Xie Xiuqi's family could do it. Anyway, Xie Xiuqi would never be a high official in this life. Now that he has a rank, he wishes he could burn high incense. How dare he expect anything else?
Moreover, their family is now in Feng County. With such a business in hand, their lives will get better and better in the future.
However, Xie Xiuqi didn't want to take advantage of Xie Rongzhao, so he said that if there was any profit in the future, he would directly give Xie Rongzhao a 20% bonus.
In other words, Xie Rongzhao gave them a rough recipe, and then they would figure it out and refine it themselves, while Xie Rongzhao ignored the rest.
Even so, such a way to make money also made their family extremely happy.
Who would mind having too much money?
In this way, not long after Wang Dalang took over the business here, he found that the shop was no longer willing to take their things.
Wang Ximeng was going to give birth in the next few days. As soon as she heard this, she felt that her financial resources were about to be cut off. When she was anxious and angry, her amniotic fluid broke.
After a period of war and chaos, Wang Ximeng gave birth to a daughter.
Now, she can be regarded as having a son and a daughter.
Wang Ximeng is actually a little regretful. She originally hoped that this would be a son. After all, she drugged Zhao Jiajun so that there would be no more children in the future. If it was a son, it would be considered a prosperous son, but now, Cheng He has only one son.
After Wang Ximeng gave birth, she thought about those beauty products.
It's just that in this situation, it's not easy to ask Wang Dalang to come in, so we have to wait until tomorrow.
Sister-in-law Wang arranged for someone to go to Baihe Academy to talk to Zhao Jiajun. After all, adding someone to the family was a big deal, and her brother-in-law had to be informed.
The next day, Wang Ximeng moved back to his dormitory, then asked someone to lower the curtain, and called Wang Dalang in to talk.
"If it doesn't work in Feng County, you should think of other ways and find other shops. Things that have been made must not fall into our own hands again!"
