Chapter 250: Cooperation with the He Family
Since things had been done, Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan did not stay in Jiangyang Mansion for long, and there were still many things waiting for them to do.
This time, I received a reply to the letter I sent to the He family, saying that they were willing to talk to them.
Sitting in the carriage, Xie Jiaojiao held the reply from the He family and said with a smile: "It seems that the list from my grandfather's family is still attractive."
Jiang Weinan put the letter away: "That's not certain. There's no such thing as a quick fix without benefits."
When they arrived in Jiangbo City that day, someone from the Jiang family came as soon as they got home and said that Jiang Huaian asked them to go back to discuss something.
Xie Jiaojiao said to Jiang Weinan in front of the old slave: "Your father is interesting. When you were locked up in the government office and your life was at stake, he didn't care about you. Now that everything is fine, he comes to your door again. He really has shame."
The old slave's face turned red and white.
Jiang Weinan looked at him with some impatience on his face: "Go back and tell that old man not to look for me in the future, no matter what happens."
"Master, please go back with me."
Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan refused to go no matter what, so the old slave had to leave in shame.
Xie Jiaojiao said: "Your father asked us to go back, it must be because of your grandfather's business."
Jiang Weinan naturally knew this in his heart.
When the old slave returned home, Jiang Huaian was very angry when he saw that he had not brought anyone back.
The concubines next to them looked a little scared and didn't dare to come forward to speak.
After Li Qiuhe knew about it, she was also angry. After all, Jiang Huaian's business was linked to her interests. If she made a lot of money now, it would all belong to her son in the future!
However, because of this matter, Li Qiuhe thought about it in his heart. He casually picked a few beautiful flowers blooming in the yard and went to Jiang Huaian's house with the vase.
Jiang Huaian looked at her and didn't want to lose his temper with her. After all, Li Qiuhe had been performing well during this period.
"How did you come?"
Li Qiuhe put down the vase in her hand, walked over to him and massaged his shoulders: "I heard from the servants that the master is in a bad mood. As his wife, I have to come and show some concern for him, right?"
Jiang Huaian felt more comfortable after listening to her soft words. He patted her hand that was squeezing his shoulder and said, "Thank you for taking care of the family affairs during this period."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qiuhe immediately looked a little sad and snorted: "What's the point of doing all this? In the end, I just don't want you to have any worries about what you do."
Jiang Huaian pulled her over and held her in his arms: "Okay, okay, I know you are good. If you were not good, how could I help you become my wife?"
After saying that, he pinched her face and also pinched her waist. Although Li Qiuhe has been married to Jiang Huaian for more than ten years, she has always paid attention to her figure and maintenance. After all, she is also a woman who has climbed up from the bottom. She knows that a good figure and appearance plus means are the capital to hold a man.
It has to be said that Jiang Huaian is quite good at coaxing his daughter. He made Li Qiuhe very happy in just a few steps.
Li Qiuhe hadn't been so close to Jiang Huaian for a long time, so she naturally felt happy and relieved.
Holding Jiang Huaian's hand, he said, "Master, didn't I go to the Shen Mansion a few days ago to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet held by her family? I heard that Mrs. Shen's brother seemed to have passed the imperial examination last year. I heard that he was lucky and is now working in the capital. I was thinking, if possible, her family has a daughter who is very beautiful, and Che'er has grown older in recent years. If possible, why don't we ask Che'er to settle down with the Shen family? And I heard that the Shen family's business is also spread all over the country. If our family really becomes in-laws with her family, then the transportation business..."
Having said that, Li Qiuhe looked at Jiang Huaian, waiting for a conversation with him.
Jiang Huaian naturally knew the Shen family. The Shen family was considered a wealthy family in Jiangbo City. They were in the silk business and had their own mulberry garden.
"Then do you know what position Madam Shen's brother holds in the capital?"
Li Qiuhe shook his head.
Jiang Huaian thought to himself, "If it's just to find someone to go through the engagement letter, then it's fine, but if it's going to be decided right away, I think we can wait and see, and I'll ask someone to ask around."
Li Qiuhe nodded immediately: "Okay, since the master agrees, I will find a good day and ask the matchmaker to come to talk to you."
Jiang Huaian nodded, touched her slender waist, and said, "It seems like I haven't been to your yard for a long time..."
Li Qiuhe snorted.
.......
Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan returned to the town that same day, and visited the He family early the next morning.
This time, the He family opened the door to welcome them, and He Hu's father and grandfather both came.
Xie Jiaojiao looked at the faces of the two men. He Hu's father and grandfather were basically three generations of the same family, sharing the same face, with one being a teenager, one middle-aged, and one old.
Lai Fu handed over the gift and someone from the He Mansion took it.
He Hu's father, He Zhongsheng, smiled and said, "The last time my nephew and his wife came to visit, it was a coincidence that my father and I were not at home, so He Hu couldn't do anything."
Xie Jiaojiao and Jiang Weinan looked at each other and couldn't help but look at He Hu, only to see He Hu's face full of disgust: "Dad...last time..."
"You have no right to speak here, shut up."
After yelling at He Hu, He Zhongsheng turned around and looked at Jiang Weinan and Xie Jiaojiao and said, "He doesn't understand anything."
He Hu: ...
When they arrived at the main hall, He Zhongsheng asked the two to sit down and asked the maid to serve them tea.
With one hand on the armrest of the chair, he said without further ado: "Do you take the words in the letter from my nephew seriously?"
Jiang Weinan nodded: "Of course, but if Uncle He wants to get this business, he must first do business with me and my wife."
He Zhongsheng looked at his father, then looked at Jiang Weinan.
"My dear nephew, please speak."
Jiang Weinan looked at Xie Jiaojiao. Xie Jiaojiao stood up and bowed slightly to He Hu's father and grandfather.
"Uncle He, Grandpa He, we want to do this transportation business with you."
As soon as she said this, He Zhongsheng and his father's expressions changed.
Grandpa He Hu just stood up and flicked his sleeves: "In that case, there's no need to talk about this!" As he said this, he looked away.
Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly called out to him: "Grandpa He! Can you please listen to me?"
He snorted coldly, "Girl, you are the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. There are some things you don't understand. I don't blame you, but the Jiang family and our He family used to have a big fight in Jiangbo City. Yes, our He family doesn't have that much ability, so we gave up our old house and ran to this town to start over. Now you actually want to partner with us in this transportation business! What? If my family doesn't agree, you are going to drive our whole family out of this town like before?"
The old man could be said to be shouting when he spoke the latter part.
