A piece of paper

Chen Fu and his mother were arguing so hard that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and the sun and the moon were shining brightly.

From the fact that Chen Fu secretly ate chicken wings when he was three years old, it can be seen that "this child will definitely steal chicken wings and do no good things in the future";
When Chen Fu was found guilty of wetting the bed at the age of six and was beaten on the head, and continued to wet the bed for half a month, he realized that "this child is disobedient to his elders and is a heinous crime!";
In the end, when Chen Fu failed at the age of 12 and did not even get the qualifications to be a child student, he declared, "Obviously he did well in his writing, but he forgot his lyrics, so he knew that his life was mediocre and he must have no future!".
Well, to be precise, it can't be called a quarrel.

After all, quarreling is like playing ping pong, you come and go, and the current situation is more like one-sided verbal bullying - Chen Fu's mother, Mrs. Qu, sneered and talked endlessly, but Chen Fu leaned against him with a pale face. On the red lacquer pillar, it was as if an invisible hand was holding his neck, and his eyes were full of panic and collapse.

Xianjin and Manager Dong were like two quails with their tongues plucked out, quietly curling up in the gap.

When Xianjin turned his head, through the crack in the door, he happened to see Chen Fu's helpless and frightened eyes.

Xian Jin pursed her lips.

Manager Dong quickly grabbed the corner of Xian Jin's clothes and said, "A loving mother teaches her son, and the way of heaven reincarnates. If you go, it is a grave sin of transgression."

Xian Jin took a deep breath, raised his head, and saw Chen Lao Wu walking in with his head buried in his chest. He immediately took a big step forward and said loudly, "Master Wu, you are back!"

There was a moment of silence inside.

Chen Laowu paused and turned around.

Xian Jin hurried forward and whispered after approaching, "The old lady is having trouble with the third master again. You are the only elder. Why don't you persuade me to go -"

Mr. Chen Wu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you making trouble? What are you making trouble again?"

Xianjin said with a warm smile, "The third master has a stubborn temper. The shop he worked so hard to build ended up making wedding dresses for people, so the third master started to complain a few times."

Mr. Chen Wu's throat became loose for no reason: Chen Fu is by no means a person who can hide things. Now that he has just recovered from a serious illness, his first reaction is to make trouble.
Those 3000 taels were finally spent wisely!

Mr. Chen Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's the fuss about? Aren't they all from the Chen family?"

Regarding the research topic of playing the role of a friendly elder, Mr. Chen Wu can publish at least five top publications, and all of them must be one work. Mr. Chen Wu spread his sleeves behind his back and stepped into the muddy water calmly with a smile.

But three moments later, Mr. Chen Wu put his arms around Chen Fu's shoulders and walked out with a smile. Xian Jin raised his feet to leave, but heard Mrs. Qu's deep voice coming from inside: "Sister Jin, come in."

Sister Jin refused to go in.
In particular, refuse to allow you to unilaterally verbally bully your young child before he is fully released.
"Sister Jin!"

Mrs. Qu raised her voice.

Xian Jin looked at Manager Dong, who looked away as if nothing had happened.

Okay, Dong Wubo, I remember you!
You are such a general assistant who flies away when disaster strikes!

Xianjin lowered his head and walked into the main hall under the square patio with frowning eyebrows.

Mrs. Qu was holding a cane and resting one hand on the back of the chair. She raised her eyes as if tired and casually nodded to the left, "Sit down."

Xianjin put a third of his butt down.

Mrs. Qu coughed lightly.

The buttocks that were in close contact with the wooden bench instantly became a quarter.

"It's been more than a year. The last time I saw you was at the Chen Family Ancestral Hall last year."

A year's time has a clear mark on an old man. Especially this year, Mrs. Qu has not yet recovered from the great grief of the death of her eldest son.

Apparently, the "Chuan" pattern on the old lady's forehead has deepened by three points.

Xianjin answered "yes" politely.

"This year, you have done well. You have drawn red books and ledgers and opened a teahouse. The profit is not lower than that of a paper shop. You even made a six-foot declaration with Li Sanshun."

Mrs. Qu's voice floated in her throat, and she seemed out of breath, "You write long notes every season, and you hand in all the account books and banknotes. I liked it very much, so I simply transferred the Jingxian shop and workshop to Let me leave it to you - go and see, which merchant in the world dares to hand over the full power of his shop, manpower and money to a little girl with the blood of an outsider?"

Xianjin raised his head slightly and said softly, "If you hire me as a manager, I will take nothing except your monthly salary and silver. I can only do my best to repay you for your kindness."

Mrs. Qu sighed and nodded, "Employment is a very precise word."

Mrs. Qu took advantage of the situation and answered, "Since it is an employment, whether the shop is under my name or the name of my second brother, it actually doesn't have much influence on you."

Xian Jin raised his head and looked at Mrs. Qu.

This old lady thought that she was instigating Chen Fu to cause such a scene?

Xianjin:.
This old lady looks down upon others!
She is the one who stirs up dissension! ?Again.
——The relationship between you and your son still needs someone to sow discord! ?

Do you misunderstand the extent of your relationship? !

Xian Jin comes from a family of origin. Although his father, a nouveau riche, is unconventional, and his mother longs for freedom, and the couple have different personalities, their love for their children is as strong as a mountain. Therefore, although Xian Jin has been on the sickbed since childhood, , but they are children who grew up in love. They do not have the insecurity of being timid or hesitant, but rather have the energy to move forward without hesitation.

So she couldn't understand why the mother-son relationship between Mrs. Qu and Chen Fu was so suffocating!

What exactly does Mrs. Qu want to do?
If she wants her son to go up to the sky to catch the moon, why not go down to the five oceans to catch turtles? ?

Let this love brain go!

He just wants to live his life mediocrely and calmly!

Who says mediocre and unhappy! ?
Sympathy for the cheap dad beats fear of the menopausal boss.

Xianjin swallowed the tea soup in one gulp, pursed his lips and raised his head and said word by word, "You ask me to go to Jingxian, I will go to Jingxian; you ask me to go back to Xuancheng, I will go back to Xuancheng. If I make achievements, you will reward me." Little gold bar, I am frankly happy, and I don’t think you are ignoring me or perfunctory me by throwing money at me - just because, as you said, I am an outsider without blood, and I have no more expectations from you."

"But Third Master is different."

"The third master is your son, so he naturally admires me. Even one word of your evaluation of him will affect his life."

Xian Jin smiled and said, "You stole a chicken when you were three years old, wet the bed when you were six years old, and failed when you were 12 years old. Think about it for yourself. In your memory, is there anything that Third Master did that made you completely happy?"

Mrs. Qu looked at Xian Jin in disbelief and subconsciously retorted, "Why not?"

Xian Jin straightened his back and smiled to show that he was all ears.

Mrs. Qu's words came to her lips several times and she opened her mouth, but she couldn't spit it out.

Aunt Qu looked at Zhang's mother behind Xian Jin with her mouth open: "Your sister Jin is crazy!"She stood up for Chen Fu and contradicted the old lady?

Zhang’s mother rolled her eyes: What’s wrong with just showing off? !As we do business, performance speaks for itself!People are top sellers!Just relying on the few account books in the Jingxian shop, you dare to speak loudly in the Chen family!What is confidence?This is called confidence!

Xian Jin took a deep breath and said in a gentle and soft voice, "The third master is very good in Jing County. He goes to the workshop every day to take roll calls. When he is busy, he has to help move paper, clear inventory, and boil water - you didn't know, right? The third master also secretly wrote two volumes of storybooks and earned nearly 80 taels, which he stuffed into the shop's accounts."

Madam Qu clenched her hands on the back of the chair and stared at Xian Jin dumbfounded.

Xian Jin stood up, nodded and saluted Mrs. Qu, "The third master did not get something for nothing and enjoy the fruits of his labor. He is my father, and it makes me feel bad if you say this about him."

Mrs. Qu used her crutches with a low expression on her face, turned away stiffly, and after a while, changed her subject to something else, "... Qiao Shanchang's girl, settle her in Yiyuan, and give her your monthly salary. Paired with two girls with quick hands and feet."

Why did you suddenly jump here?
I don't know what the show of gold means, but it is a good thing after all, so I nodded hurriedly.

Mrs. Qu said again, "You should think carefully about Miss Qiao's matter. The Chen family can help, but you can't drag yourself into the water. Miss Qiao is not very old, and our Chen family can still raise her for a few years, but if she is born, Which family Miss Qiao ends up with is none of our Chen family's business!"

After a pause, he deliberately softened his voice and said, "Think twice before doing anything in the future! Don't be reckless and self-centered!"

This is what Mrs. Qu wanted to do when she came in, right?
After Xian Jin realized, it seemed that she had just wiped it out by standing up for Chen Fu.
Xian Jin nodded and said, "Day by day, year by year, the Qiao family's affairs must have an end."

Mrs. Qu sighed, "Otherwise, what can I do? Everyone has entered the house, and I can only be a monk and clock the clock for a day." She waved her hand, rubbed the Tianling point, and asked Xianjin to leave first.

As soon as Xian Jin left, Aunt Qu quickly stepped forward to help rub her forehead and asked tentatively, "Aren't you planning to launch an attack on the crime from the beginning? Ask Sister Jin why she made such a decision and took in the Qiao girl?"

Mrs. Qu narrowed her eyes and said nothing. After a long moment, she said, "Sister Jin was boldly defending her father just now."

Aunt Qu didn't understand the relationship between cause and effect.

Mrs. Qu breathed a sigh of relief in her chest, "The third child is certainly a scourge, but Sister Jin is a piece of rough jade."

Opening his eyes, he thought about the children and nephews of his natal Qu family, "I remember that Manger was two years younger than Xianjin, and he passed the examination to become a medical officer in Xuancheng Prefecture last year."

Aunt Qu's eyes flickered, "Brother Mang, he is the most powerful brother in the next generation of our Qu family!"

Mrs. Qu smiled happily and said, "Who says it's not the case? The son inherited his father's business, but he did better than his father. In the future, it is not impossible for him to become an imperial doctor in the capital. It is not unfair to match him with his wealth. When the time comes, she will marry from our Chen family, and we will give her [-]% of the money she has saved for the Chen family over the years as a dowry."

Aunt Qu then smiled and said, "You really like Sister Jin."

Mrs. Qu smiled and said, "I gave you a rich boy, and I defended your son righteously. Do you like it!?"

Aunt Qu quickly excused herself, "I'm not as lucky as you!"

The two aunts and nephews made a fuss, and Mrs. Qu looked at Yiyuan with unsatisfied feelings - there was something else she didn't say: if Xianjin married back to the Qu family, she could legitimately be the chief steward of the Chen family.
