Xiaosheng is not a nerd

Mrs. Gu heard the emotion in Mrs. Lu's tone, and asked curiously: "What big business?"

"Madam Gu, look for yourself."

After reading it, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Zhang showed strange expressions and remained silent.

It's one thing to have a big business, but it also involves huge interests. As the wife of a famous man, I still have some insight into this.

The first reaction is that they can't meddle in this kind of business indiscriminately. Their identities are special. Once they get involved, they represent the whole family.

Seeing that the three wives did not express their views, Gu Xianting asked: "Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Zhang, why don't you get involved too?"

The three ladies looked at Gu Xianting and thought to themselves, Xianting, you must have been tricked into boarding the pirate ship by Shaodian without knowing the situation.

In addition, Shaodian also wanted to use the line of Xianting to pull the three of them into the thief boat.

It is willing to be used by Shaodian, but this matter is a bit big, even they dare not make a claim.

Mrs. Lu said with a smile: "At first, I wanted to participate, but Shaodian's business is too big, and I can't afford it."

Mrs. Gu answered, "Such a big business should require a lot of capital, right?"

Mrs. Zhang chuckled: "I'm just a woman, and I can't manage the family's financial power. I don't have too much capital."

The three wives sang together and declined.

Xie Fu naturally also heard the implication, and thought to himself, the attitude of the three wives, the more it shows that the business is complicated, the more the three wives are required to participate in the escort.

Just how to convince them?
Xie Fu was thinking secretly, while Gu Xianting had already said, "It doesn't matter how much money you have, just get a name."

The three ladies thought to themselves, Stupid Xianting, what we are afraid of is getting a name, capital is not a matter.

Mrs. Gu smiled and said: "Xianting, Auntie, I don't have such great power, so I have to go back and ask your Grandpa Gu's opinion first."

This sentence seems to have been said in Xianting, but it is actually reminding Xie Fu, Shaodian, don’t think that we don’t know what medicine you buy in your gourd, you are a bit cheated, I just took your painting, but you want break our leg.

Gu Xianting thought to himself when he heard the words, then I will go to persuade Grandpa Gu myself, even if I can only persuade one family to participate.

The three wives were going to ask Xie Fu to sing today, but they couldn't help, and it's not so cheeky to feel ashamed.

Xie Fu found a reason to leave, and Gu Xianting sent him out.

After leaving Wanghe Tower, Gu Xianting saw that Xie Fu remained silent, and comforted him softly: "My lord, don't be discouraged. Mrs. Gu and the others don't want to participate, so I will go and persuade Grandpa Gu myself."

Xie Fu smiled and said, "I'm not discouraged. The three wives obviously have no right to make decisions about this matter. It's useless for me to say more."

Gu Xianting was surprised and said: "Have no right to make decisions?"

Xie Fu nodded: "Don't look at the three of them who are usually joking and joking very casually. For such a big event, I still have a sense of proportion in my heart."

Gu Xianting thought about it, it seems that this business is really big, the three older wives dare not take part in it on their own, as the head of the family, Grandpa Gu should count on what he says, it seems that he can only learn from Grandpa Gu Let's do it.

...

Xie Fu said with a smile: "However, this matter has not yet been decided."

Gu Xianting asked suspiciously: "How do you say that?"

"Because none of the three of them returned the painting to me, only if they send me the painting back can they truly reject me."

In the flower hall, after Xie Fu left, the three ladies looked at each other.

Mrs. Lu was the first to speak: "You Li Shaodian, this is too bad, this painting is so precious that I can't even hold it firmly." Obviously she likes this painting very much, and her tone reveals reluctance.

Mrs. Gu said: "Shaodian, he is going to make a big deal, do you want to get involved or not?"

Mrs. Zhang smiled wryly: "What he's doing is a man's business. We are women, so we can't afford to get involved."

Mrs. Lu said: "But Xianting has already boarded the thief ship, so we can't let it go."

Mrs. Gu gave a discouraged smile, knowing that Mrs. Lu wanted to find a way to go down, she said with a smile: "Madam Lu, you can't afford to meddle, someone else can."

Mrs. Lu sighed: "Forget it, let's get scolded for him to go home, who asked me to accept his paintings."

Mrs. Zhang simply scolded: "Bastard Li Shaodian, if you don't have anything to do, you can either rape or steal. I should have guessed that men are all this kind of stuff."

Mrs. Gu jokingly said: "Mrs. Zhang, when you collected the paintings just now, you were so happy that you couldn't close your mouth from ear to ear."

The three wives knew very well that the three of them could not come to an agreement, so they had to go home and ask someone who could make the decision.

Of course, they can also guess the ending, and it is inevitable that they will be scolded.

……

As dusk approached, when Lu Tao returned home, Mrs. Lu specially prepared a table of sumptuous wine and tea.

Lu Tao was surprised when he saw it, "Ma'am, what day is today?"

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Master, I have been learning cooking from Xianting for a while, let you have a taste of my progress."

After taking a sip, Lu Tao praised: "Well, yes, it really is a famous teacher who produces a good apprentice. Madam, you can go to open a restaurant with your skills."

Madam Lu poured another glass of wine for Lu Tao.

Having been married for more than 20 years, Lu Tao saw that his wife was very attentive today, and said with a smile, "Ma'am, tell me what you want."

"Master, there is something I want to discuss with you."

"Well, you said."

"Xianting and Shaodian want to do business together, and they want me to join in."

Lu Tao was surprised: "Do Xianting and Shaodian also know each other?"

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "I've known you for a long time." As she spoke, she told a series of things about meeting Li Shaodian in Wanghe Tower, and at the same time, Li Shaodian was the fake county magistrate of Wuxi.

After listening to it, Lu Tao was very excited: "What a Li Shaodian, I really saw the right person."

Seeing her husband's praise, Mrs. Lu thought it was funny, and said with a smile, "Master, won't you punish him for pretending to be an official?"

"What kind of treatment is there? Compared with him saving countless people in Wuxi, Wuxi is still peaceful. This is such a trivial matter. If this matter is exposed, whoever wants to punish him? I, Lu Tao, really stood up to protect him to the death. !"

Mrs. Lu was secretly happy when she heard that, it seems that the next words can be said.

Lu Tao urged: "Madam, pour the wine."

Mrs. Lu filled the wine, and Lu Tao drank it down in one gulp, obviously very happy.

"My lord, I just said that they want to do business together, and I want to join in too."

"Go ahead."

Lu Tao responded readily, but suddenly looked at his wife, feeling that something was wrong. All the big and small matters in the family were always decided by his wife. Since she specifically mentioned it, then this matter is not small.

"what business?"

"Shaodian wants to bid for the Jiangnan Dongdao Grain General Merchant."

As the governor of Suzhou, Lu Tao’s food is the most important thing for the people’s livelihood, and some of the local garrison’s food needs to be replenished from the grain merchants, so as soon as Mrs. Lu exported it, Lu Tao blurted out: “Isn’t the main grain merchant of Jiangnan Dongdao in Hangzhou Zhu’s family?” Do you have it?"

It is said that it is in the hands of the Zhu family in Hangzhou, but in fact it is in the hands of the Zhu family. As a collateral branch, the Zhu family in Hangzhou is also a member of the big family of the Zhu family.
