Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

Chapter 231 Scumbag Liu Renzong

It's getting dark and I'm tired. It's time to go home and have some sleep.

But Yan Xinlan kept looking back, and Lan Qiyan pulled her back, "They won't run away, you can come again tomorrow. Now we have to go home, and you have to remember that only when the red flag is flying at home can the colorful flags outside fly."

After eating fine bran, Yan Xinlan thought about the coarse grains at home and suddenly found it a little hard to swallow.

"Qi Yan, have you heard that I can't have children?"

Lan Qiyan shook her head. "With your mother-in-law and your husband, do you still want to have a child like that? Your inability to have children is God's help, allowing you to be your own mistress. The most important thing for you now is to manage your shop well and keep your money. As for men and children, let nature take its course."

"You're right. I now own several clothing stores and a rouge shop."

"Sister, do you want to make money?" Lan Qiyan asked her seriously.

"Who would have a problem with silver? Sister, do you have any good ideas?"

Lan Qiyan told her the secret of skin care products, "Do you think this can make money? We use Chinese herbal medicine ingredients to make moisturizing, whitening and anti-yellowing products, and we mainly sell them to young ladies and noble ladies."

"Why not? Can you make it? If you can, sell it in my shop. The loss will be mine, and we'll split the profit 50-50."

“I only know the recipe, but I can’t make it. But do you have someone trustworthy? We can think about it together. But I have some ideas about the dividends.

I just don't like to mix interests with friendship, family and feelings. I just want you to give me 20 sets every month. Don't ask me why I do it for you. It won't affect your business anyway. The profit of your shop has nothing to do with me."

Yan Xinlan agreed immediately, "That's great. I like dealing with people like you who are straightforward and efficient."

Lan Qiyan is also very satisfied. The skin care products she uses every day are all bought from Taobao Space. The effects are not inferior to several modern big brands. She only knows about the process and raw materials, but she is not an expert in this field.

Yan Xinlan owns a rouge shop, and she must have this kind of talent under her. She comes up with the recipe and others provide the people and technology. She doesn't want any dividends. She orders twenty sets a month. This kind of skin care product is bought from Taobao, at twenty taels of silver per set, and sold for fifteen taels of silver per set.

It's good to earn a few hundred taels a month from this. She doesn't want to have financial disputes with anyone, otherwise they won't even be able to be friends in the end.

Yan Xinlan and Lan Qiyan did what they said. The next day, they went straight to the rouge shop and did not take any products home for several days.

Liu Renzong has been staying at Aunt Qiu's house these days. He found it very strange that the tigress didn't come to see him.

So I went to the old lady's yard to take a look. Yan Xinlan usually served here.

But as soon as I entered the yard, I heard a heart-wrenching howl, and it sounded like my mother's.

Liu Renzong ran over quickly and saw his mother's face was bruised and her body was covered with gauze. He was very angry, "What happened? Cui'er, tell me."

Cui'er recounted in detail what had happened in the previous few days using the words taught by her madam.

Liu Renzong was very angry after hearing this. "That country old lady was quite rampant. She actually beat up the mother of a second-rank official like this. Where was Yan Xinlan? How did she protect her mother? Why did she watch the old lady get beaten up like this?"

"Son, you have to avenge your mother. That old witch came to my house and beat me up. Yan Xinlan hasn't come to pay her respects these past few days. Does she still have you in her heart? Son, how did you manage the family? Where did she go?"

Liu Renzong comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. I will never give up on this matter and will definitely seek justice for you. I will let Yan Xinlan take care of you first."

"Son, you are the best to me. You must punish that old witch. Ouch, it hurts so much that I haven't gotten out of bed for several days.

Hurry up and let the hen that doesn't lay eggs come and serve me. Why am I the only one who is in so much pain? Yan Xinlanshi doesn't protect me at all. She runs faster than a rabbit."

Liu Renzong listened to the incessant crying, pretended to comfort her with a few words and then left.

When I arrived at the Jade Courtyard, I started shouting as soon as I stepped into the yard, "Yan Xinlan, why was my mother injured? Why didn't you go and serve her? Now you let me come to you. You are so proud."

But it had been a long time since he finished speaking, and no one in the Jade Courtyard answered him.

Liu Renzong shook his sleeves and said, "You are so good, Yan Xinlan. Have I given you face? Now you dare not respond to me."

He strode over and entered the house, only to find that it was very empty, with only furniture, soft vases, calligraphy and paintings, antiques...it seemed that there was nothing except the load-bearing walls.

How is this going?

When was the house emptied?

Why didn't anyone inform him?

Liu Renzong moved forward rapidly and plunged into his own warehouse, but there was nothing in the warehouse except books.

All the gold, silver and jewelry he had hidden among his books were gone.

An angry Liu Renzong called the housekeeper and asked, "What's going on? Why are Madam's yard and my study now unfinished houses?"

The housekeeper wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Master, this really has nothing to do with me. Madam took all the money from the Duke to do business. She said she found a good business. Everything requires investment in the early stage."

"So she took all the money in the mansion?"

"Madam said that over the years, the master and the Duke have spent a total of 13,000 taels of silver and 358 taels of gold from her, so what she took away now is what the mansion owes her.

The lady said that the master's salary was all used to support his concubine, and the grandfather did not give him anything. A real man should not use his wife's dowry to support his family, which would make people all over the world disgrace him.

Madam also said that if you have any questions, you can confront her in person. She is currently working at Happy House. "

"Working? What is working?"

"The old lady and the lady had a fight with Madam Lan and Madam Yu a few days ago and smashed Madam Lan's carriage. The two carriages cost a total of one thousand taels. She is now working for others to pay them back."

"What do you mean, where is the silver?"

"Doing business."

"So she didn't have the money to compensate for the carriage, so Lan Qiyan detained her and made her a laborer?"

"Yes, sir."

"This is outrageous. Lan Qiyan is becoming more and more rampant."

"Master, Madam Lan said that she is a super first-rank lady, older than the old lady. If you go to the emperor, she will let General Yu come back to kill you."

Liu Renzong was furious, "This is too much, she is too much, go and bring the lady back, how can a lady of the second rank show her face in public."

"Master, I have been there and cannot bring anything back."

Liu Renzong shook his sleeves and said, "Humph, I'll go there and see what she can do to me."

The housekeeper shook his head. The master deliberately didn't mention the issue of his salary. Can the lady win this fight?
