Marrying into a poor family

The next day, Qin Xiang saw off Xiao Chenyu who had gotten up early and slept for a while before getting up, packing up and going to the incense room.

The first batch of red gold ingots will be almost ready for sale after a while, but the quantity is very small.

Qin Xiang was also a little worried about whether she could sell it. After all, the price set was too high. Qin Xiang didn't expect that the price she and the shopkeeper had set was completely rejected by Master Lu Jiu, who directly increased it by [-]%.

Anyway, sales is the Lu family's business. Qin Xiang quickly put aside these worries and devoted himself to leading a group of apprentices to work. If one of them is not noticed, problems will arise. Qin Xiang only feels that he has never said this in the past few days in his previous life. I have talked a lot, but I have never been so tired.

Fortunately, Liu Xi, Lian'er, and Lian'er Niang were able to help a little and give Qin Xiang some relief.

When Qin Xiongfei was called to his study by his elder brother, he still didn't know what happened?

The Qin family is an extremely large family. The eldest son inherits the family property, and the other legitimate sons and concubines live separately. Of course, the difference in property that the legitimate sons and concubines can receive is also very different.

However, both legitimate sons and concubines depend on the big tree of the Qin family for survival; the Qin family knows that the development of a family is inseparable from people, so they try to have as many children as possible.

Over time, as the population increased, more and more houses were built, and it became difficult to distinguish the concubines of the previous generations. Only the people who lived in the old house in the middle were the heads of the family, and it was a symbol of status.

Qin Xiongfei, the fourth master of Qin, was supposed to be separated and live alone, but he used various means to stay in the main house, so he was still controlled by his elder brother.

Mr. Qin sat in the study and looked at Qin Xiongfei with a gloomy expression: "I heard that you have a recipe for making fragrant dew. Are you planning to go it alone?"

"Brother, where did you hear this?" Qin Xiongfei was shocked, but he had already started looking for a house and a craftsman to build a steaming stove, so he was ready to be discovered.

Seeing that his younger brother was still playing tricks on him, Mr. Qin became very angry. He slammed the table and cursed: "Why are you using all your little cleverness on your own family?"

Grandpa Qin Si was a man who was praised by others outside. In addition, he was still reprimanded by his elder brother at a very young age. He was a little embarrassed for a while, but he did not dare to contradict him, so he could only keep a calm face and say nothing.

Mr. Qin softened his tone and said: "Tell me, how much did you spend to buy the prescription? You can't swallow it by yourself, so hand it over and we will make it together. I will replenish it for you with the money you paid for the prescription. In addition, this matter I will also leave it to you to take responsibility. Can I, as the eldest brother, still cause you to suffer?"

"I didn't spend money. This is my daughter's filial piety to me. I thought it would be right for me to keep it myself." Mr. Qin Si simply sold Qin Xiang. Anyway, he was going to bring Qin Xiang home. Sooner or later, big brother will also know.

"Your daughter? The fourth girl or the fifth girl?" Mr. Qin was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly went through the daughters of the fourth room in his mind. Only the fourth girl was married, and the fifth girl also discussed the marriage later. They are still small, so naturally they are not considered.

"No, she is my daughter who is raised outside. She is smart, so I found a husband to teach her how to read and write. However, I didn't expect that this girl learned the skill of making perfume from the husband. This fragrance is her A trick devised by her husband."

"Have you tried it? Is it really feasible?" Master Qin leaned forward and asked anxiously.

For him, the source of the recipe is not important, what is important is whether he can actually produce the fragrant dew.

You must know that these things are all tributes from abroad, all supplied to the palace, and then rewarded by the palace. They are precious things, and they are also the face that those noble families cannot buy even if they have money.

"I haven't tried it yet, but I have seen a recipe for making fragrant flower water. There should be no problem with this." Nowadays, there are also methods to imitate fragrant dew, but only water with fragrance comes out, and the fragrance will be gone quickly. After it dissipates, it is not as fragrant and long-lasting as fragrant dew, and it can also be eaten. Even the royal doctors in the palace like to add a little for medicinal purposes, saying that it has more medicinal properties than decoction.

Mr. Qin was secretly happy in his heart, with a smile on his face. He had a long discussion with Mr. Qin Si, hoping to get a recipe from him and make it together, so that the Qin family could reach a higher level.

Qin Xiongfei also knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he started to talk about Qiao's benefits.

At this moment, Mr. Qin's butler hurried in. Seeing the fourth master there, he hurriedly saluted Mr. Qin and then informed Mr. Qin of a "bolt from the blue." "Both the Huang family and the Zhang family have had some changes recently." After saying that, he glanced at the fourth master and then said: "They are also buying land to build houses. Our people finally found out about it, and it is said that they also got some amazing incense. square."

What kind of incense recipe can make two families mobilize a lot of people to build a house specifically for production?
Mr. Qin stared coldly at the Shanshui Tongboshan incense burner on the table. The room was silent for a while, except for the incense smoke flying unconsciously in the incense burner.

Master Qin's thoughts were elusive, but Qin Xiongfei didn't take it seriously. He said, "No matter what prescription they have, can they still beat the prescription in my hand?"

Mr. Qin glanced at his fourth brother, and after he hesitated to speak, he said: "Fourth brother, we must work together to stabilize the Qin family. Once the Qin family falls, you will not be able to survive alone. Now they also have their own way, We can’t wait any longer, we have to speed up.”

Qin Xiongfei nodded and agreed.

Mr. Qin breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the butler: "Continue to send people to find out what kind of prescriptions they have obtained?"

The butler took the order and left. Mr. Qin Si asked his eldest brother to write a contract before he was willing to hand over the prescription.

When he returned to the courtyard with the contract satisfied, he found Mrs. Qin Si waiting for him in the main room.

"My master has been very busy during this period. I haven't seen him for a few days. I came here to see if he is well?"

Qin Xiongfei's expression turned bad and he reprimanded with a straight face: "What are you talking about? Are you cursing my body and bones?"

"Of course not. The master is busy now, so he should take good care of himself. I am the first wife of the master, so naturally I should take care of it more. It doesn't matter if I am tired. Anyway, it is all for the sake of this family and our children. Master Say yes?"

Qin Xiongfei knew that his wife must have known about Fang Zi, so he did not hide it and told the family that Fang Zi had been handed over.

Mrs. Qin Si's face was ashen, her teeth were gritting, and her eyes that were pretty when she was young were sharp.

"Why didn't the master say a word to me when he came back? Did the master even guard against me?" Trying to suppress the raging anger in her heart, Mrs. Qin Si still gritted her teeth when she spoke.

"I'm telling you, you didn't even turn around and told your parents' family. Then what else can I do to benefit from my eldest brother? My Qin Si's status in this family can never be higher than that of my three brothers. What do you want me to do? Am I not doing it for our family? Am I not thinking about our legitimate sons and daughters? "

Mrs. Qin Si was so angry that she was so angry that her head was smoking, but she had no way to refute. Yes, as long as the water in her four houses rose, she would also benefit, but how should she explain it to her family?

"You were squeezed out by your brothers, and you could only pick up some sideline business that they didn't want. If my mother's family hadn't provided money to support you, would you have been able to start a business by reselling goods? Now that you're better, you won't let them go. In my eyes, I only think about myself when I have benefits, how do you want me to face my mother-in-law’s family?”

Qin Xiongfei wiped his face, sighed, and said to Mrs. Qin Si: "Don't be angry. I have already thought about it. I can entrust them with the future sales. Don't worry, I am the most grateful." , naturally I will not forget them, let alone your goodness."

After seeing Mrs. Qin Si away, Qin Xiongfei held his hands tightly. The girl from the roommate came over to bring tea. She rubbed her body against Qin Xiongfei unintentionally and said warmly: "Master, have a cup of tea to warm yourself up. Don't be angry, master." I’m so sorry for you.”

Qin Xiongfei drank the tea in one gulp, held the girl in his arms, and said bitterly: "She wants to dominate me for the rest of her life just because her family gave me a sum of money in the early years?"

The maid turned into a ball of mud, clinging to the master's neck and talking softly. Qin Xiongfei soon forgot about Mrs. Qin Si.

However, Qin Xiongfei was destined to be unable to live happily. His second brother and third brother also came to the door together. This fourth brother, who was usually ignored by them, finally became powerful.
