The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 106 The Pei and Tao families are enemies

Huo Xing didn't know that so many people were thinking about him, but Yan Xilou beside him found out the details about Pei Zhan.

"Is he from the Pei family?" Yan Xilou was a little surprised.

Huo Xing nodded. He already knew Pei Zhan's details.

Yan Xilou narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "He belongs to the Pei family, so Tao Zhen belongs to the Tao family. Don't the Tao family and the Pei family have a grudge?"

In fact, Yan Xilou put it mildly, it was more than just a grudge.

The relationship between the Pei family and the Tao family was pretty good in the past. The Tao family's daughter was going to marry the Pei family's son, and many people said it was a perfect match. The day the Tao family's daughter got married, which was the day the Pei family's accident happened, they were arrested that day. The Pei family and his son belong to the Tao family.

Later, the Pei family was unlucky. The Tao family seemed to have exterminated their relatives out of righteousness. However, not long ago, the Tao family's second daughter was engaged to the second prince and was betrothed to be the second prince's concubine. Another in-law of the Tao family, the Qin family, replaced the Pei family and became the head of the Imperial Hospital. No one might have thought of this series of things at the time, but if you think about it deeply, it is really extraordinary. No matter what, the affairs of the Pei family are inseparable from the Tao family.

Yan Xilou said: "Although Tao Zhen is an abandoned child, she is a member of the Tao family after all. Did Pei Zhan behave so well that he didn't mind at all? Moreover, the key evidence at that time to convict the Pei family It seems that it was found directly from the Pei family, and it happened to be the day they got married..."

Yan Xilou paused: "Do you think Pei Zhan doesn't know that his enemy is the Tao family?"

Huo Xing stopped what he was doing, looked at Yanxi Tower, and shook his head gently. He couldn't see through Pei Zhan, and his attitude towards Tao Zhen was even more difficult for him to see through. But Pei Zhan was not a fool. , even if he was confused at the time and didn't see anything, but it had been so long, he had figured out everything he should have figured out.

However, neither the Pei family nor the Tao family has anything to do with Huo Xing, let alone Yanxi Lou.

"When did you start caring about this matter?" Huo Xing asked, looking at Yan Xilou.

Yan Xilou smiled and said: "The Pei family has superb medical skills, but my mother suffers from an old disease. I want to ask him to take a look."

Huo Xing glanced at Yan Xilou and said nothing more.

Yan Xilou naturally had his own plans, and Huo Xing didn't reveal them.

……

There is an open space behind the Pei family's new house. They used to grow vegetables. There is such a piece of land behind every house in the exile village. No one has any farmland. The little wages earned from the quarry are simply not enough. In the summer, everyone will be in their own homes. It is allowed by the Audit Department to open up a piece of land behind the house to grow vegetables.

I don’t know what the final outcome of that case was, but fortunately the ban was lifted.

Tao Zhen decided to go to Ningzhou to buy some seeds. It happened that Liu was also going, so they set off together.

Mrs. Liu was also in the car, and she looked at Tao Zhen sideways as soon as Tao Zhen arrived.

Tao Zhen didn't care at all. She discussed farming with Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu didn't say anything or find fault, but when she looked at Tao Zhen, her eyes were full of pride and calculation. Tao Zhen looked a little angry and wanted to smash the window again tonight.

When we arrived in Ningzhou, everyone separated.

Tao Zhen had to go to the bookstore to return the books and to the embroidery shop. The piece of embroidery that Mrs. Pei took was quite large and could not be finished in a while. Tao Zhen just wanted to go to Yun Sanniang's to see if there was anything cheaper. After all, the weather was getting warmer, so they should buy some more clothes, especially Pei Zhan's clothes, which were rotting very quickly. Tao Zhen often said in private that he was a donkey that wasted its reins.

The bookstore owner has been very polite to Tao Zhen since he participated in that competition. Educated people are respected at all times.

Tao Zhen returned the book and took another blank book. After that, she asked the bookstore owner about the children's schooling.

Pei Heng is seven years old and it's time to go to school.

But the bookstore owner's words made her give up.

"Are you from the Exile Village?"

Tao Zhen was startled.

The shopkeeper said: "Don't get me wrong, I won't lower your prices."

The shopkeeper added: "Although King Yanbei has been in charge of the village in recent years and has been a lot tolerant of the exiled villages, you are exiled after all and cannot study."

The emperor asked them to come to suffer, not to enjoy.

Tao Zhen then remembered that in the entire exile village, except for those who came from the first generation, none of the younger generations could read.

Li Hui, Wang San, etc., these people are illiterate, otherwise Pei Zhan would not be able to do the clerical job.

In ancient times, studying was a luxury, not to mention people who were exiled from the village.Some people may ask, isn’t literacy the same at home?
Tao Zhen also thought about it, and soon figured it out

It’s okay to learn to read at home, but who has time to teach?It's a waste of time, effort and money. They are prisoners. What can they do if they are literate?It just adds to the worries. Life is not easy anymore, so who has time to care about those things.

With Mrs. Pei in the Pei family, she can teach Pei Heng, and Pei Zhan can teach him how to read when he comes back from work. That's all for now.

She wanted to buy a Three-Character Classic for children to learn from her boss, a Thousand-Character Classic, but she was a little dumbfounded by the price. This ancient book was really expensive.

The shopkeeper said: "Why not buy a few blank books and copy them back? This will save a lot of money!"

Tao Zhen hurriedly thanked him. He said that the shopkeeper was really good. He was also a scholar in the past. He had great character and was a decent person.

She bought a few blank books, carefully wrapped them in cloth and put them in her arms.

Yun Sanniang was dozing off in the store. When she saw Tao Zhen, she rolled her eyes: "What are you doing here?"

Tao Zhen looked around and said, "Do you have any cheaply processed cloth? It's better to be strong and durable."

Yun Sanniang pointed to the counter next to her without energy: "Go and see for yourself."

Tao Zhen looked around and couldn't pick anything out.

"That's all?" Tao Zhen asked.

"There should be some in the warehouse, but I'm too lazy to move." Yun Sanniang yawned.

Tao Zhen leaned against the counter and asked, "It's the season change, why are there no customers?"

Yun Sanniang said: "Don't mention it. I opened it after seeing the store opposite. The items are cheaper than mine and the variety is better than mine."

Tao Zhen understood. She had just arrived in a hurry and hadn't paid attention. Now she looked at it and saw that the decoration opposite was much more advanced than Yun Sanniang's. In just a blink of an eye, many people came in and out of the opposite place.

Yun Sanniang gritted her teeth: "Bitch..."

She laughed bitterly: "The more I look at it, the angrier I get."

Yun Sanniang glanced at her again and asked, "You're not planning to go to their shop to take over the embroidery work, are you?"

Tao Zhen laughed dryly and said no with a guilty conscience.

Yun Sanniang looked like she had seen through her.

Tao Zhen said: "Don't you want to think of a way?"

Yun Sanniang frowned: "What can be done?"

Tao Zhen said: "If I can help you sell the cloth, what good will it do me?"

Yun Sanniang looked at her distrustfully: "What benefits do you want?"

"How about giving me [-]% of the money from selling the cloth?"

Yun Sanniang sneered and continued to doze against the counter.

Tao Zhen “…”

"Twenty percent!"

"One percent!" Yun Sanniang said, "It's quite a lot, don't be too greedy."

Tao Zhen said: "I don't want to, but as you know in my family, Pei Zhan is the only one who earns money. He is as tired as an ox in a day. He only earns [-] coins. What can he do with [-] coins? It's not enough to buy several kilograms of rice. There are still so many people to support.”

"Don't cry poor like me." Yun Sanniang didn't know anything about the Pei family, but she still knew a little about how people in the exile village lived. Tao Zhen's words were not exaggerated.

But she is a businessman, not a charity person: "Don't push yourself too far, [-]% is a lot, and I can't make much in total."

"Deal." Tao Zhen said cheerfully.
