Chapter 179 Unfortunately, the calculation did not start
Wang Shi and Qin Liuxi returned to the main room and sat down, and she handed over the long box in her hand first.
"It's a gift from your grandmother, don't you see it, wear it for fun."
Qin Liuxi opened it and saw that there was a green dragonfly inside, so he picked it up to enjoy it, then stuck it in the half-up bun on his head, and tilted his head deliberately: "Mother, does it look good?"
"It looks good." Wang was very happy, and said with a smile: "Even this step is not inserted like this. You have to put all your hair into a bun, which is easy to insert. Now it is easy to lose it like this."
Qin Liuxi said: "I usually only tie the bun, but I don't know how to do the complicated ones, it's too time-consuming."
"It would be a pity for a girl of your age not to dress up. How can there be a girl who doesn't like to be pretty?" Wang said angrily: "Also, in the future, we will kiss..."
She paused, and seemed to realize that it was inappropriate to say this now, so she took out the money and things her mother had entrusted, pushed it in front of Qin Liuxi, and said, "This is the money your grandmother asked Zhang's family to send." Things for emergencies. I thought about it, the small farm that my family bought before is a bit shallow, and the expenses will be bigger when the children grow up, and they have to marry, which will cost more money, so I still have to do something else make a living."
With one hand resting on the small table, Mrs. Wang stretched out her fingers to fiddle with the gold ornaments in the box, and said: "Two thousand taels of silver, I plan to put one thousand two hundred taels into the public house, whether it is buying land or renting a shop to do it. It doesn't matter what kind of business you make, you have to use it to make some money."
Wang said: "Although this is money sent by my mother's family, it is good to marry in-laws, and it is to help. It means to rely on in-laws to help someone when something happens. Your grandmother and grandfather are still alive, and the Qin family is still alive. There is no separation, so all the money can’t go into the small family, some of it has to be taken out to deal with the current difficulties, this is also the general and overall situation that a mistress needs to show.”
Qin Liuxi understands that this is Wang's teaching her the principles of human relations in the inner house and backyard. Although she doesn't care about those trivial matters, she just listens quietly at this moment.
"One thousand two hundred taels will go to the public house, and the rest will be saved as the owner of the big house, and do some other business. I thought, Yan'er is not here right now, we take you as the big house, this money How about giving it to you, you do some business in your name? No matter what happens in the future, it will be a small dowry."
Qin Liuxi was surprised: "Give it to me? Then what about the second brother and Xiao Wu in the future, they are the men in charge?"
"Yan'er is now my greatest comfort being able to live peacefully there, and I don't dare to expect anything. As for Xiao Wu, if he is outstanding, you can hand over the burden to him. Don't be a prodigal, it's not bad to rely on your family's Mengyou to be a wealthy Tian family man." Wang said indifferently: "After they wait, they will marry wives and have children. Let's see if the grandchildren have malleable talents. Come out and cultivate well, maybe you can get up again."
When Qin Liuxi heard this, he knew that she had thought it through carefully, and he admired her courage to take it up and let it go.
She glanced at the silver notes and gold ornaments in the box, stretched out her hand to flick them, and said: "Mother believes in me, so I will obey my mother. I can't do business and run a shop, so I just bear this name. Others have to be handled by the mother, you used to have a dowry shop, didn't you?"
Wang who was just happy that he could be a hands-off shopkeeper: "..."
The abacus didn't seem to work?
