Chapter 160 No one is a fool
This woman is really restless, she said she is worshiping the Buddha, maybe it is a lie, how could she be willing to have those jewels confiscated, how could she be willing to hand over the power of the family to someone she hates?

Xi'er suddenly thought of something, her eyes narrowed dangerously, and then lightly touched Qi Shi with her elbow.

"Your mother-in-law is very upset"

"I know, in fact, I understand everything in my heart"

"Be careful that she lays hands on you"

"I know little aunt, I will definitely pay attention"

"You must be careful about what you eat, otherwise, your child will end up miserable without a mother."

Qi's heart ached, and he nodded fiercely, "Well, I will pay attention."

"I'm not scaremongering, you go and ask, and you will know what happened in the deep house compound. When you gave birth, we were all worried that you would be given by her."

Mrs. Qi suddenly remembered what happened that day, and her face paled a lot.

"It was really bad that day. Fortunately, my husband was watching me every step of the way. My father-in-law sent someone to find another stable woman. The one my mother-in-law found was useless. Otherwise, I would have died that day."

After Xi'er saw that she understood what she said, she didn't ask her any more. After Qi's fear for a while, her gaze became much firmer. She glanced at the opposite side, and then said only one sentence.

"If she pays respects to the Buddha honestly, that's all. If not, I will let her spend the rest of her life in bed."

Xi'er hooked her lips, a child can be taught!

Qiao Shi didn't listen to what the two of them said. Her stomach was almost six months old. At this time, it was the month when she could eat. She didn't look up. The dishes on the table were all her favorites. While eating happily, Xiao Jian was holding Mian'er on the other table, just to let her have a good time, Qi Zixuan was also holding the child in his hands, both of them were good husbands.

There are quite a lot of people here today, the ten big tables are all full, eight people per table, that is eighty people, it is really lively.

Shopkeeper Fang and the accountant left after they were full. They still had to work and move when they were free, so they couldn't stay here all the time.

The Ma family also left after eating. They knew that there were so many people that Xi'er couldn't take care of them, and they didn't want to cause trouble for her.

The shopkeeper and storyteller of the teahouse also left after eating, Xi'er didn't let them go back empty-handed, and each family took away a lot of gifts in return, definitely more than they brought.

Today's dishes are not small, and there are quite a lot of styles. There are twelve dishes on a table, and eight people can eat them all.

The village head of Yangliu Village saw that there were so many left on each table, and felt that it would be a pity to throw them away. Their lives were much easier, and they rarely ate leftovers, but the food of Luo’s family was too delicious. Well, I am used to saving food and living frugally, and I feel distressed about wasting food.

The village chief was not afraid of embarrassment, so he found Xi'er quietly.

"Boss, I'll send someone home to bring some pots over, don't throw away your leftovers,"

"Okay, it's hot, this dish can't stay overnight"

The village head took the villagers back to get the pots, Qi's eyes flashed with disgust, but Mrs. Liang and her family did not show any abnormality.

They can all understand the difficulty of the farmers and the feeling of wasting food.

After everyone was full, they helped the villagers pour the same vegetables into a basin. After watching the village chief and the others leave, they all went to the side hall to make room for the servants to clean up.

Knowing that they had something to discuss, Mrs. Luo found an excuse to go back and rest.

The Xu family and the Su family, because there were old people, left without sitting for a while.

Everyone came to drink this housewarming wine today. It was really not in vain. Everyone has a steelyard in their hearts, and no one is a fool. Don’t talk about those dishes, just talk about the jar of wine, even if you spend money, you can’t buy it. After that, the whole body is called a comfortable.

I believe that when they go back, they will also deeply remember this banquet, and they will also look forward to the Luo family holding the next feast.

The women in the house took their children to play in the opposite side hall, and those who could stay in the house were able to talk.

Xi'er shared the document written by her and Ji Kang yesterday for everyone to read. Basically, the content on it did not need to be changed. Xiao Jian, and then took away the document that belonged to his family.

As for Xiao Jian, he also shared his thoughts with everyone.

"The workshop is located in Yangliu Village, which is too eye-catching in the town. Let's build two workshops first, one for salt production and one for sugar production. The sugar and salt I buy will be purchased directly from the government.

There are legal procedures, so that it is convenient for you to check the accounts. Among the five of us, one invested 5000 taels of silver, and the five families got 5000 taels of silver. These silvers are used to buy land, build workshops and purchase goods.
At that time, I will arrange an account room to manage the accounts of sugar and salt, and settle accounts for everyone every six months. Do you think this is feasible? "

"Okay, we have nothing to say"

"Well, let's talk about getting the workshop up first, and the checkout will be a matter of later."

"It's settled then"

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Xi'er gave Xiao Jian the recipe for making sugar and salt.

After that, the Qi family and the Liang family left in their own carriages with a lot of gifts in return. The Gong family didn't stay long and then went home.

Xiao Tianbao looked at the formula in Xiao Jian's hand, swallowed his saliva, "Boy, pack the formula well, don't lose it, it's a wealth of wealth!"

"Understood Dad, I'll be busy tomorrow. If you have nothing to do, help me?"

"No time, you can do it yourself, it's not something to worry about"

"Oh~, it's tiring to be the son of the Xiao family."

"Go away, why didn't you say it when you were enjoying your blessings?"

In this way, Xiao Jian started to get busy with the banknotes of the five families.

It was also from this day that everyone in the town knew the identity of Mr. Gong, and also knew that Mr. Gong built a school here, and everyone happily passed the news to each other.

Who is Mr. Gong?That is a well-known Confucian in Longyu Kingdom, and the most inferior among his descendants is Juren. I heard that the master of this school, he and his son both serve in it.

My God, isn't that specification better than the Bailu College in the county?
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the town, "I heard that the Luo family and the Xiao family will give the school a scholarship of 2000 taels every year."

"What is a scholarship?"

"It means whoever does well in the exam and who studies well will be rewarded"

"My God, can the children of poor families go to study in it?"

"Yes, the school exempts those who really can't afford to go to school and still want their children to study, but the premise must be to study well. If you don't study well, they will only let you finish the enlightenment class, and you will be persuaded to leave. "

"That's right. If you don't make progress, you don't have the brain to study. What else do you need to learn? You can read a few words, you just need to be blind."

"Hey, our Huaishu Town will become more famous in the future."

"I heard that Mr. Gong was invited by Miss Xi'er from the Luo family."

"Miss Xi'er is really amazing"

"Who said that, our mayor also contributed."

In the small town, this is what they talk about after dinner. As for Xiao Jian, he is quietly carrying out the business of buying shares in five companies.

These five families are all talented people. They can all imagine the market prospects once snow sugar and snow salt are produced. Otherwise, how could a person like Liang Zhifu agree so readily.

Don't underestimate the [-]% profit. If you calculate it carefully, the amount will be shocking to death.

Xiao Jian directly bought a group of strong men with death contracts from the dental shop in Fucheng, and arranged them to a place to learn the production process of the prescription.

In Yangliu Village, there is a workshop on one side, and learning on the other side, and they are carried out simultaneously, so there should be no delay.

Xi'er ignored the outside affairs, concentrated on researching the elixir at home every day, and handed over all the family matters to Nanny Zhou.

Mrs. Luo has two maids to serve her, so she doesn't have to do anything.

Every day is planting flowers, raising grass and listening to books. She asked people to shed the whole field behind, and brought two little girls to plant vegetables and fruits.
