Chapter 42 Ready to buy a shop

Thinking of how much charity she did in her previous life.

Xiang Xi didn't feel guilty at all.

"Really?" Goldman found that what he cared about was Xiang Xi's sincerity towards him and whether she had done anything to hurt him. As for deception, he didn't care at all.

Especially looking at her flattering eyes and those beautiful smiling eyes, my heart softened.

"Of course." Xiang Xi came closer to him, his eyes bright, "I won't hurt you if I hurt anyone."

Not to mention how sweet her mouth is.

The corners of Goldman Sachs' lips turned up involuntarily.

It was only when Xiang Xi looked over that he restrained himself, coughed slightly and said, "Well, I know."

"Then I will go to the town to find a shop tomorrow."

"Is it enough to buy a shop?"

"That's enough for the time being. You can usually buy it in shops in town for seven or eighty taels."

Isn't it enough to buy two shops? Xiang Xi was about to think about the authenticity of the 100 taels of silver notes she picked up when she lowered her head, but Gao Xuan and Gao Yun came back.

"Second child?"

"Third brother, why are you back?" Gao's mother had just finished heating the hot water when she heard Gao Yun's shout in the yard and followed her out.

Xiang Xi also walked out of the side room curiously.

Gao Yun's face turned slightly red when he saw that his family members were all there. After greeting Xiang Xi Gaosheng, he asked Gao's mother, "Mom, do you know about the second brother's business?"

"Second brother and second sister-in-law are so amazing, they actually made so much money." Gao Yun's words were full of praise.

Gao Mu subconsciously glanced at Xiang Xi and Gao Sachs. The two couples had just had a quarrel with Liu Yuanyuan and might not be willing to do business together. At least they had to take it slow.

Her face looked indifferent, "Well, that's what happened."

"Why are you back? Aren't you on vacation yet?"

Gao Yun scratched his head shyly, "I came back from asking for leave. My second brother said he wanted to arrange for me to go to the county to study. I have to come back and discuss it with my parents. After all, it costs a lot to go to the county, and I can't use my second brother." Second sister-in-law’s money.”

"The main thing is to ask my parents what you think."

In the evening, the whole Gao family sat in the main room regarding this matter.

Dad Gao was smoking a dry cigarette in his hand and glanced at Gao Xuan, "Second brother, you said you wanted your third brother to go to the county to study. You didn't say how much money it would take to transfer to an academy. You just said it would cost a lot of money, such as repairs, food and lodging, paper, ink and pens. Have you calculated how much it costs for inkstones and other materials in a year?"

"Are you lending money to your third brother to study, or are you sponsoring him? We are all part of the same family, so I won't be secretive and will shamelessly ask."

Gao Xuan nodded, "Dad, I've calculated that these expenses are not much different from those in the town, up to 40 taels of silver a year."

"If the third brother is successful, he will be able to take the scholar examination next year and get the honor of being a junior student. The court will also give him five taels of silver and six stones of food every year."

"Dad, compared to this money, the future of the third brother is more important. Doesn't our family just want to support the third brother in studying?"

Gao Xuan's words were much nicer than Li Yuanyuan's. Considering the future of the Gao family, even Gao's father was a little moved.

"What if your third brother never passes the exam?" Gao Gao's voice was low.Gao Xuan subconsciously retorted, "Isn't the third brother very good at studying? I have asked Master Liu, and he said that there is no problem that the third brother will end up next year."

"I'll think about this matter again." Although Gao Gao said this, everyone present saw that his words were just polite, and they were afraid that he would agree without waiting for tomorrow.

Apparently Goldman Sachs thought so too. He didn't say anything to hinder his third brother's future, but was actually happy for them.

After the others left, Goldman Sachs privately told Dad Gao about buying a shop in the town.

After hearing this, Dad Gao hesitated and said, "Boss, are you still angry with your second brother?"

"Dad, no, I know what you are going to say. It doesn't matter if Xiao Xi and the second brother and sister don't get along. Anyway, they are separated and they don't live together, so there won't be any conflicts. I also hope that the second brother can get over it for the best. "Goldman Sachs took the initiative to mention this matter. There was no trace of jealousy on his face, only calmness. "It's my idea to buy a shop. No matter what, I have to have some source of income, so I won't be a drag on you in the future."

"The shop is in Xiao Xi's name and only counts as her dowry. I am still a farmer and not a merchant. Xiao Xi and I are planning to buy more land in the future. If we don't buy a shop, the village is our root and cannot be ignored." Goldman Sachs explained clearly. .

Dad Gao felt relieved and said, "That's good. It's a foregone conclusion that your second brother will become a merchant. Your mother and I don't want you to do the same. Although we can make a lot of money, our children and grandchildren cannot take the imperial examination within three generations. I I believe that with your and Xiaoxi’s abilities, you will not be short of money.”

"Yeah." Goldman Sachs nodded. He still has some confidence. He already has some ideas in his mind and will only mention them when they are done.

"Okay, okay, as long as you have an idea." Father Gao felt relieved. Although he still felt that the second couple made money and did not pay back the interest, which was a bit unreliable, but his son has a future, and he is a very good father. It's hard not to be happy. "

That's how it was decided.

Goldman Sachs left the main room and went to the kitchen first to bring a basin of hot water back to the room.

Xiang Xi was lying on the end of the bed looking for winter clothes in the wooden box to wear when going out tomorrow. A pair of petite, pink and cute feet were dangling in the air.

Goldman's eyes deepened, he reached out to carry her to the bed, and pressed her feet into the hot water.

"It's so warm." Xiang Xi felt her whole body heat up and the coldness dissipated. She was still holding a jacket in one hand, "Mr. sir, go and take out my cotton pants quickly."

Goldman Sachs got up, went to take out all her clothes, and put them on the stool so that she could get them when she got up early tomorrow morning.

"Mr., come and soak your feet too."

Goldman Sachs casually found an excuse, "I'll go to the kitchen to soak in a moment, there's still some hot water left."

Xiang Xi blinked and said oh, looked at his back as he left in a hurry, touched his chin, and thought thoughtfully. When Goldman Sachs came back, Xiang Xi was already lying on the bed. It was bone-chillingly cold in winter, even though it was new. The quilt and bed are still cold.

After Goldman Sachs followed him to lie down, Xiang Xi had a clever idea and rolled into his arms.

Goldman Sachs' movements were slightly stiff, and before he could react, Xiang Xi had already found a comfortable position and fell asleep.

He was even more reluctant to move now, for fear of waking her up.

The night was getting late, and Xiang Xi felt as if he was holding a stove all night long, not cold at all.

morning.

It's rare for a family to have breakfast neatly at the same table.

Perhaps Liu Yuanyuan was irritated by Xiang Xi's venomous tongue, but unexpectedly she didn't make any more trouble in the morning and finished her breakfast in silence.

Until Goldman Sachs went to push the stall truck.

Xiang Xi was wearing a hat and a rabbit fur collar, and when she was standing at the gate of the courtyard waiting for him, Liu Yuanyuan passed by her, deliberately showing off her winter coat made of fine silk, and said condescendingly, "Sister-in-law, I have good intentions, but since you If you don’t accept it, then my husband-in-law and his family will move to the county town to live in a big courtyard, and I hope my sister-in-law won’t come to visit her.”
