Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 697 Annoying Liao Yuandong

   After Laba is the New Year. There are more people buying New Year's goods in Kang'an Chengfang City, and the shop stewards and the guys are full of energy, shouting hard, and warmly greeting the guests who enter the door.

The four sisters of the Jiang family also wanted to sell out the shelves by the end of the year. Even Jiang Muzheng, who had been locked up in the house all day embroidering her dowry, followed the sisters out. an idea. In the evening, the four sisters got together and jogged the abacus, calculating how much Hua Xiangrong made this year and how much they could make before the end of the year.

   Back in the boudoir of the West Courtyard, Jiang Muyan grinned and hugged her sister and praised, "By the end of the twelfth lunar month, Xuexia Wan will definitely earn 6,000 taels of silver! Sister, you are so hard to do."

  Jiang Liu smiled and bent his peach blossom eyes, "Sister is also very capable."

  Jiang Muyan discussed with her sister, "I'll keep the money as it is, why don't we buy some fertile farmland before spring?"

   It is indeed a good idea to buy land and buy property, but Jiang Liu has a better idea, "I sent someone to ask, the cheap fertile land within 30 miles outside the capital is also 221 mu..."

  Jiang Muyan stared at her phoenix eyes in surprise, "It has risen so much?"

Jiang Liu nodded, "So I want to wait until the Zhu family ship comes back in March next year to see how many spices Feng Zijin can bring back to us before making plans. If it is feasible, we will partner with Feng Zijin in the fragrance business. Sister, do you know why Feng Zijin dares to do so? Putting all his life into it? Because Feng Zijin's mother was born in a family of perfumers and is a master perfumer. If the incense is done well, it will make more money than silk, rice grains and fat powder!"

   Jiang Muyan was puzzled, "If Mrs. Feng is a master perfumer, how could the Feng family be reduced to this?"

Jiang Liu analyzed, "I heard what Sister Feng Juan said, it seems that Mrs. Feng and her family have had an unpleasant quarrel because of her marriage, and they didn't have **** again after they got married. After Mr. Feng's accident, Mrs. Feng's family didn't seem to help much. Busy, Madam Feng decided to resume her old business in order to make a living."

   Jiang Muyan sighed, "I obey my father at home, and my husband after marriage. Madam Feng had an unpleasant quarrel with her parents' family because of her marriage. After she got married, she lost her support, and only after her husband died would she suffer terribly. So..."

  Jiang Liu took over the words, "Children should obey their parents' arrangements and choose a safe and good marriage, so that they can live in peace and stability after they get married. Once the husband's family is in trouble, the mother's family will also help."

   Yes, my sister remembered it. Jiang Muyan nodded in satisfaction, and whispered to her sister, "Second sister asked me today, she thinks Feng Juan and second brother are a good match. What do you think?"

   When Erlang was sixteen years old, Feng Juan was only one year older than him, and the two were a good match in terms of age. However, Jiang Liu whispered, "Sister, do you think Sister Feng Juan can be attracted to the second brother?"

  Jiang Muyan shook her head gently, "Feng Juan was originally the daughter of an official family. Although the Feng family has fallen, they may not be able to like the second brother. Although the second brother has a gentle temperament, he reads... I am afraid that it will be difficult to enter the imperial examination."

   Brother Erlang is the heir of an official family. If he can't pass the imperial examination for his ability, he has only three ways to go: join the army, take care of the general affairs of the government like the third uncle, and choose a career to make a living. No matter which way it is, it is not good. Feng Juan's appearance and temperament are not bad. If you want to get married, you will definitely find someone better than Erlang.

Jiang Liu nodded, "Sister is right, but Mrs. Feng had a falling out with her parents' family again, and the Feng family was in trouble. Mrs. Feng's family did not help. Presumably Feng Zijin was in the incense business and would not join forces with Mrs. Feng's family. When he came to me, he should have the intention of doing business with us with the Jiang family as his backing. It is more secure to do business with us and form an in-law relationship."

Jiang Muyan's eyes lit up, her sister's words made sense, she didn't expect this level, "One more thing, if the second brother-in-law enters high school next year, the second brother will also be looked at. But I think if the Feng family Don't mention it, we can't mention this marriage, let's wait and see."

   Jiang Liu nodded, and then said with emotion, "In a flash, my brothers and sisters have reached the age of engagement."

   Speaking of engagement, Jiang Muyan thought of Liao Yuandong from her aunt's house again, and hurriedly told her sister, "Cousin Liao will come to Beijing to deliver New Year's goods in a few days, you have to stay away from him and don't play with him."

"I know."

   Knowing is knowing, but it is not easy to do it. After Liao Yuandong went to Beijing to deliver New Year's gifts to his grandmother, he ran after Jiang Liu every day, opened his mouth and shut up and stayed with Liu'er's cousin. Jiang Liu was so annoyed by him that he simply went out early every day to avoid him. Finally, when Qingjin Academy had its annual holiday on the 20th of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Liu was relieved that Liao Yuandong and Jiang Sanlang could play with birds and grasshoppers together.

  Who knew that Liao Yuandong had been playing Grasshopper for two days, and he felt that Grasshopper was not as good as his cousin, so he turned to stick to his cousin. Jiang Liu, who was busy clearing accounts at the end of the year, stocking goods, giving shopkeepers and farm managers, and giving out dividends for the guys at the end of the year, couldn't take it anymore, his eyes sank, and he smiled, "Cousin, what do you want to play?"

   The plump Liao Yuandong saw that his cousin was finally willing to play with him, and quickly said, "Let's play whatever cousin Liuer wants to play."

   "I'm tired of writing, how about my cousin accompany me to the martial arts field activities?" Jiang Liu raised his eyes and instructed Shu Qiu, "Bring me this girl's iron rod!"

   "Yes." Shu Qiu responded resoundingly and ran out to get the girl's weapon. Seeing that the sixth girl was going to teach Young Master Biao a lesson, Nanny Zhao and several maids were very happy and followed behind.

   "Cousin, I've also been practicing martial arts this year, and we'll play a game later to see who is stronger." Liao Yuandong didn't think that his cousin was willing to beat him, so he followed Jiang Liu to Renfu.

As soon as the two entered the office, Jiang Ling got the news, went back to the house to get the bright silver gun, stopped his sister and Liao Yuandong who owed a fight, and discussed with Jiang Liu with a look of embarrassment, "I'll go over with Cousin Liao to clean up the venue first, I have counted the account book of the racecourse twice and can't match it, can my sister help me do the math?"

   "Okay." Jiang Liu went to his brother's study with a stick.

Jiang Ling raised his hand to stop Liao Yuandong, who was about to follow, and said with a smile, "Let's go to the martial arts field for activities first, and after my sister has settled the account, our muscles and bones will open, and then we can show our true skills to my sister. Does my cousin say so?"

Right! He wanted to show Cousin Liu'er what he was capable of, but Liao Yuandong stopped and shouted at Jiang Liu, "Cousin Liu'er, come over quickly."

   "Okay." Jiang Liu replied without looking back and walked away.

  Jiang Ling smiled, "Cousin, please."

   "Okay." Liao Yuandong shook his arms and followed Jiang Ling to the front yard. When the servants of Jiang's and Ren's house got the news, they immediately ran to watch the fun with various excuses, but they were all driven back by Jiang Cai and Uncle Qiu under various names.

  Young Master wants to clear the field and teach Liao Yuandong a lesson, how can people be watched? After driving away the crowd, Uncle Qiu happily stood by and watched the battle.

Seeing Jiang Ling arrived at the martial arts field, he began to organize the grass handles. The fat Liao Yuandong squatted and picked it up for a while before he could not breathe. He stood up and complained, "Let the servants do these chores, Cousin Ling accompanies me to show How's it going?"

  Jiang Ling wondered, "I haven't practiced my gun well yet, so I'm afraid I'll hurt my cousin."

   is half a head taller than Jiang Ling, and Liao Yuandong, who has gained a few laps of weight, looked at the person next to him, "Then let's do a fistfight. The fourth brother always tells me that you are amazing. Let my cousin see how amazing you are today!"

   After about a cup of tea, Uncle Qiu ran forward and panicked, "Master, why did you vomit blood?! But you suffered internal injuries?"

  Liao Yuandong, who was lying on the ground and humming, was in severe pain and sat up, looking at Jiang Ling, whose mouth was slightly broken, and exploded with anger.

"I was just punched by my cousin, but I didn't get hurt." Before Liao Yuandong could speak, Jiang Ling wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked in a adoring tone, "Cousin's strength has increased a lot, Jiang Ling is ashamed of himself. , how does my cousin practice on weekdays, can you teach my younger brother?"

teach him? Liao Yuandong endured the pain and stood up, pretending to say, "I run at home every day and lift a 100-pound stone hammer!"

   "Cousin can lift a 100-pound stone hammer?" Jiang Ling stepped forward and slapped the soil on his body.

  Liao Yuandong grimaced in pain, "What is a hundred pounds, I can still lift a hundred and fifty pounds! I'm hungry, go back to eat first."

  Jiang Ling called behind him, "My sister will come later, didn't my cousin say that I want to compete with my sister?"

   "It's nothing today, let's talk about it tomorrow." Liao Yuandong, who was in pain all over, just wanted to go back and lie down.

After lying down, Liao Yuandong couldn't get up the next day. He wanted to run to complain to his grandmother, but he picked up his clothes, but there was no bruise on his body. He also heard that Jiang Ling's face was blue, how could Liao Yuandong Feeling embarrassed to complain, I had to climb into the carriage and slip back to Taikang.
