A Blessed Daughter

  Chapter 100 New Store Opening

  Hearing Yun's praise of Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan involuntarily tightened her fists.

  Now both father and mother feel that her elder sister is better than her.

  Wei Qingwan followed Yun's words and said casually: "Yes, it would be great if my sister told us earlier."

  Hearing this, Yun's expression froze slightly.

  She doesn't know that the eldest daughter's rice seeds are easy to use, but the eldest daughter should know it herself.

  However, this idea only stayed in Yun's mind for a while, and she soon realized that when the eldest daughter came back, their early rice was already being planted.

   "It shouldn't be Ruo'er's fault. I remember that rice seedlings were already being transplanted in the field when she came back. At that time, she told me to change the rice variety, and I probably wouldn't believe it right away." Yun said.

   In this matter, Yun still remembers it clearly. At the beginning, when her daughter said that she wanted to improve the land in the south of the city, she still opposed it. She didn't quite believe that the eldest daughter really had this ability.

   "Yes... yes, my daughter almost forgot. It turns out that my sister came back at that time, I misremembered." Wei Qingwan's face hurriedly seconded.

   Just as Yun was frowning about the food, things from the Zhongyibo Mansion in the capital arrived.

  It was a gift from the old uncle and Wei Mingting's two elder brothers to congratulate Wei Mingting on his promotion.

   Among them, there are several carts of rice. The first half of the journey by water is faster, and the land road after passing Hangzhou Mansion has delayed a lot of time, so it was not delivered until today.

  Seeing the loads of things, Yun was overjoyed.

  Although Yun's mind is also clear, the reason why her father-in-law and the two elder brothers are so enthusiastic must be because her husband has been promoted. He is the only official official in the Zhongyi House now, and he is almost the reliance of the Zhongyi House.

  But I have to say that this part of the food met her urgent need.

   In addition to food, the Uncle Zhongyi's mansion sent some cloth jewelry, which was given by the old uncle and the old lady.

   "Third Madam, these are given to the young lady by the old uncle and the old lady."

  The person who came to give the gift specifically confessed.

   "Okay." While Yun agreed, she looked at Wei Qingwan beside her, with concern in her eyes.

  Wei Qingwan's face was a little pale, but she still forced a smile on Yun's concerned eyes.

  But her smile made Yun even more sympathetic.

   Before the Yun family opened their mouths to talk about this matter, Wei Qingwan stepped forward and said: "Mother, my daughter is fine, my sister just returned home, it is right for grandparents to care more about my sister."

  Hearing her daughter's sensible words, Yun's heart became more and more heavy.

  Mr. Yun glanced at the cloth and jewelry in front of him, wavering in his heart for a while, and then said: "Wanwan, next time when the mansion is more free, mother will buy some for you."

  In her heart, Yun really wanted to give some to Wei Qingwan, but she still had a semblance of reason. These cloths and jewelry were different from the ornaments last time. These things had to be worn out.

  In the future, they still have to go back to the capital. When the time comes, the parents-in-law will definitely not like it if they let the parents-in-law know that she privately gave the things that the eldest daughter named to the second daughter.

  No matter how much Yun Shi wanted to take care of his second daughter, he would not dare to go against his in-laws.

  Hearing Yun Shi's words, Wei Qingwan was taken aback, and looked at Yun Shi in a daze.

   "What's wrong with Wanwan?" Yun looked at Wei Qingwan suspiciously.

   "It's okay, mother, I'm fine..." Wei Qingwan immediately came back to her senses, and repeatedly emphasized that she was fine.

   "Well, as long as it's okay." Yun didn't think much about it, she knew Wanwan's temper, and it was inevitable that her grandparents' attitude would make her feel sad, but she certainly wouldn't have other thoughts.

  Thinking for a while, Yun said again: "Mother has a set of pearl hair mask. I planned to give it to you when you were old, but now I plan to give it to you first, and Wanwan will wear it when I go to Fucheng."

   Yun's consideration is not only because of today's events, but also the matter of Yun Brocade. She didn't want Wanwan to feel too wronged, and she didn't expect that when she went to Fucheng, Wanwan's clothes were much worse than that of her eldest daughter. .

   "No, no, no, my daughter won't need it, and my daughter still has some dignity, so I'd better keep it for myself." Wei Qingwan quickly refused.

   "It's useful, you are Mother's daughter, and everything that belongs to Mother will belong to you and Ruo'er in the future." Yun said in relief.

   "Then...the daughter thanked mother." Wei Qingwan didn't refuse anymore, and said with a shy and grateful expression.

   "Silly boy, tell mother what to say thank you, let's go, follow mother to the house."

  Mr. Yun took Wei Qingwan's hand and walked towards her own room, planning to hand over the set of pearl face masks to Wei Qingwan now.

  The things that Zhongyi Bofu named to give to Wei Ruo were sent to Tingsongyuan.

  The box this time is not big, but the things are much more expensive than those copper ornaments sent for the first time.

   "Miss, here is a set of gold jewelry! There are also some emerald jewelry, which seem to be precious things." Xiumei was pleasantly surprised.

  Wei Ruo was also a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Uncle Zhongyi actually gave him some valuable jewelry.

  Though the cloth is not as expensive as Yun brocade, but there is a whole box, and it is also satin, and the price is not cheap.

   "Sure enough, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how the Zhongyi uncle's mansion declines, it still has some foundations." Wei Ruo muttered.

   What made Wei Ruo curious was how the old uncle and the old lady would give him such a valuable thing, which never happened in the original book.

  After thinking about it, the difference from the original book is that her achievements in the south of the city have brought benefits to the Wei family.

  So the two elders didn't completely feel sorry for her granddaughter who hadn't met. Their actions were more out of consideration for the interests of the family.

   But this is also good, at least real money will be paid, which Wei Ruo likes very much.

  ###

   For several days in a row, the long-term workers in Xiaoyangshan were busy harvesting sweet potatoes, and several pre-purchased warehouses were filled to the brim.

  The production of dried sweet potatoes and sweet potato chips was also put on the agenda.

  According to Wei Ruo's intention, the nanny specially selected women from poor families to learn how to make dried sweet potatoes and sweet potato chips, and then handed over a large number of dried sweet potatoes to them.

  Each person pays five renminbi per day plus one big sweet potato per person.

   This is not a high income, but for village women who have problems eating, it is a very good job. At least it can keep them from starving, and the work intensity is not too high, so they can do it.

  At the same time, next to Sibaozhai, a grain store opened bustlingly.

  The name of the shop is very simple and straightforward, it is called Xu Jiliang Shop.

  The store mainly sells grains—rice and sweet potatoes, as well as fresh and dried shiitake mushrooms.

  Dried sweet potatoes and sweet potato chips will also be sold at the same price as those sold in preserved fruit stores.
