Chapter 277 I'm Afraid

Wen Moyan returned to preaching, "I have experienced this period of time, you also know that my father-in-law wanted me to quit my job as a litigator and study peacefully. Live so uselessly."

Gu Rao originally didn't intend to intervene in this matter, but now that he has reached this point, he also expressed his own opinion.

"You have real talents, as long as you continue to work hard, you may not be unable to win a good future in the future. Your father-in-law is willing to cultivate you. If you know how to be grateful, keep it in your heart, and you can find an opportunity to repay it in the future. Don't worry about him." so clear."

"It's only natural for him to care about his daughter and worry about her suffering with you."

Wen Mo nodded.

"I understand the truth."

"But as a literati, if you don't even have the bones, what books do you still read? Now Donghuang County has been turned into a mess by the new county magistrate. If I don't even become a litigator, what should I do for those who have been wronged?" Avenge yourself?"

"In the past two months, almost all the cases I accepted ended in failure. Those people couldn't afford the money, and neither could I."

He himself was in danger, but he still couldn't see the suffering in the world. After losing the lawsuit, he didn't take money from the hired person.

"If you don't make money, the family really can't cook."

"I want to be a lawyer and start my own business at the same time."

"Originally, I didn't have any idea. When I heard that you were here today, I wanted to ask if I could cooperate with you. I will pay you for the recipes. You don't have to worry about the rest. We will share the money we earn. , I am four and you are six."

"how?"

Gu Rao was a little surprised.

"Are you really going to do business?"

Although there is no rule in this era that merchants cannot take the imperial examination or be an official, the status of merchants is still the lowest, and no matter how rich they are, they will still be looked down upon.

Ordinary people can certainly not care, but can a literati really not care about the contemptuous eyes of others?
Wen Mo nodded.

"I am my wife's husband first, and I am an upright scholar second."

"If you can't even afford to support your own wife, and pay off the high ground and let the opportunity to make money go, it should be even more contemptible."

"What happened to the merchant?"

"We make money with our own hands, as long as the money comes in a fair manner, there is no shame in it."

Gu Rao appreciates his open-mindedness.

"I can agree to the cooperation you mentioned, but since you use our recipe, the restaurant you open can only be named after our restaurant."

Wen Mo responded directly.

"Of course."

He went directly to the waiter in the shop to ask for a pen and paper, and after Gu Rao, Bie Ye and himself supplemented, he wrote a contract in a short time.

After signing and depositing.

Gu Rao believed in Wen Mo's character, and he didn't procrastinate. He wrote the recipe and the detailed method clearly.

"If you don't know anything, you can come to Wild Boar Town to find me, or let your cook come to Wild Boar Town to learn from our cook for a few days."

Wen Mo is cautious.

"My wife and I have discussed it a long time ago. If we open a small restaurant for the time being, the two of us will be able to come here without spending money to hire another cook."

"With our current situation, we can't afford to hire cooks and staff."

"When are you going back to Wild Boar Town?"

Gu Rao said, "It's getting late today, I'll go back tomorrow."

Wen Mo asked again, "What time is it?"

Gu Rao said, "Tomorrow is the hour."

Wen Mo nodded.

"Then I will come to the inn to look for you before tomorrow."

Gu Rao froze for a moment.

"Are you here to learn?"

Wen Mo smiled and said, "My wife is pregnant, so I can't let her go to Wild Boar Town alone to learn cooking with a big belly, right?"

"I'm not worried about letting her go away."

In fact, Donghuang County is not far from Yeyezhu Town, but after all, you have to take a boat or a carriage, which is a bit bumpy, so be careful and stay at home is the safest.

He also couldn't bear to work hard for his wife with a big belly.

Gu Rao smiled from the bottom of his heart.

She had seen before that Wen Mo was a man who doted on his wife.

It's just that, after all, there are limitations of the times. Men in this era, influenced by their education, stature and environment, and falling in love with his wife, also pay attention to red tape and literati's face.

Now it seems that as long as you love each other enough, you are willing to give in to deal with them, and you are willing to do some 'unruly' things for each other.

It's just that she thinks too one-sidedly about people.

"it is good."
-
After Wen Mo returned home, he told his wife that he was leaving home tomorrow to go to Wild Boar Town to learn cooking.

Lu Zhi refused without thinking.

"The gentleman is far away from the cook. If you become a cook and your classmates find out, why don't they all laugh at you?"

"It will affect my career in the future."

Wen Mo took two steps forward, put Lu Zhi's hands in his own, and said solemnly, "Lady, I will not let you suffer with me for too long, I promised you before, I will let you live On a good day, this promise will surely be fulfilled.”

"You are pregnant with Liujia now, you only need to take good care of the baby at home, and don't think about other things. Earning money to support the family is what I should do as a husband."

Lu Zhi shook his head.

"This is our home, how can you support it alone? I can learn to cook. Didn't you praise the delicious food I cook?"

Wen Mo smiled and said, "Your cooking skills are already very good, but what I went to learn this time is the dishes of Xiaoguai Restaurant. Their restaurant is big and their business is good. As long as we learn the dishes in it, we will The restaurant business I opened will also be good.”

"You have a big belly, so you shouldn't run around. After I learn it, I'll come back and teach you, okay?"

Lu Zhi pouted.

"not good."

"Learning those dishes can't be done in a day or two, right? You want to leave me at home alone?"

Wen Mo suggested, "When I'm not at home, you should go back to your mother's house for a few days, and when I come back, I'll pick you up in person."

Lu Zhi said stubbornly, "Just take me with you, I won't make trouble for you."

Wen Mo patted her head and coaxed, "It's really inconvenient for you now. After giving birth, I will take you wherever I want to go. It's just a few days away. I will definitely come back as soon as possible."

"Hey, wait at home for me to come back."

Lu Zhi hesitated to speak.

Wen Mo asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhi sighed.

"In the past few days, I have always had chest tightness and shortness of breath, and I have nightmares when I sleep. I always feel that something bad is going to happen, and I am always worried about what will happen to you."

Wen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought it was something. It turned out to be a nightmare. You, you just love to think about things. You must be thinking about it every day and dreaming at night."

Lu Zhi was still worried.

"You don't want to be a lawyer anymore, okay?"

"I'm afraid."

Wen Mo was silent for a while, and then said after a while, "No matter how stupid the county magistrate is, he would not dare to kill anyone. The biggest threat to me is nothing more than ruining my imperial examination path."
