After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

Li Xiangping is the eldest son in the family. After Yan Qingqing finished speaking, he was the first to speak: "Mom, although I am not as proficient in business as my second brother, I agree with my mother's idea.

Our family seems to have a lot of property now, but it is only in our town of Canghe.

Last year, we donated all our belongings during a disaster.

In the final analysis, our family’s foundation is too shallow.

It's just that I'm an agricultural official now and I don't have any talent in business. I'm afraid my second brother will have to work hard on this. "

After Li Xiangping finished speaking, he still felt a little guilty. He really couldn't help his family in business.

Li Xiang'an heard this and said quickly: "What are you talking about? We are brothers and a family. Although I manage the family business, my job as a farmer is also very hard.

Mom said that we are brothers and we should help each other. We cannot stand on just doing business.

From now on, only if you, the eldest brother, the third brother and the fourth brother are all well, will the money we earn be valuable. "

It is true that Li Xiangping worked very hard as an official. He spent all day in the fields studying grafting and hybridization techniques, hoping to make some achievements in this area.

What Li Xiangan said was correct. To put it bluntly, it was said that government and businessmen colluded. Only when his family had a stable rear area could he do business with peace of mind.

Yuan Huiniang heard the two brothers being humble to each other and said with a smile: "Second brother, my husband, you two don't have to be humble.

In our family, whether it is the two of you, or the third and fourth brothers, no matter where they are, they are all for the better development of our family in the future.

I don't have any great skills, but you can rest assured that you can leave the family matters to me.

No matter what decision you make, I support you. "

Yan Qingqing was very happy when she heard what they said. She had seen too many people and things, and they could only share hardships but not joys.

She didn't want her children to be like this in the future, so she would hit them from time to time.

Yan Qingqing saw that everyone had no opinions on the next development of the workshop.

So he said again: "Since everyone agrees with our next development, then I will tell you my plan.

You can't become fat in one go. We have worked hard for three years in Chengyang County to build the foundation we have now.

My next plan is to open workshops and shops in our Xuancheng Prefecture and Beijing.

The first is to consolidate our foundation. After all, Chengyang County belongs to Xuancheng Prefecture, and we have some connections in the prefecture, so it is easier to develop.

As for the capital, I have a hunch that we will go to the capital sooner or later. If we prepare early, we won't be in a hurry. "

Yan Qingqing chose these two places for the time being after careful consideration.

Li Xiangan and the others had no objection.

After deciding on the location, the next question is who to send.

Now the most suitable and capable person is naturally Li Xiangan.

So before Yan Qingqing could say anything, Li Xiangan said: "Mom, leave the matter of developing the market to your son.

In the past few years, I have been staying in our Canghe Town to learn skills from my mother, and I also want to go out and give it a try. "

After two or three years of experience, Li Xiangan has the passion of a young man and the stability of an adult.

Yan Qingqing was very proud looking at the son she had raised with her own hands.

Just as Yan Qingqing was about to nod, Yuan Huiniang said, "Mom, I have no objection to my second brother going.

But the second brother will soon be seventeen. The current matter is whether to marry the second brother back first. "

Yan Qingqing and Li Xiangan both looked at each other in shock after hearing Yuan Huiniang's words.

In Yan Qingqing's subconscious mind, Li Xiangan is still a half-grown child, and he should wait until he is eighteen before he wants to get married.

Not to mention Li Xiangan himself. He has been busy with work in the past two years and has no intention of starting a family.

When Yuan Huiniang saw the expressions of Yan Qingqing and Li Xiangan, mother and son, she suddenly became furious, and said, "Mom, second brother, you two have never thought about this matter.

This is a life-long event for the second brother, who is already a father at his age.

He is still a bachelor now, and if this continues, all the good girls will be picked up by others.

Mom, I know you don’t advocate early marriage, but my second brother is already quite old.

He is not a girl's family, so even if he doesn't get married, it would be better to settle down as soon as possible. "

This was the first time Yan Qingqing was scolded by Yuan Huiniang. She originally wanted to retort, but she found that she was speechless.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Li Xiangping pulled Yuan Huiniang's sleeve.

Yan Huiniang said angrily: "Ms., you are the same, you are the elder brother and I am the eldest sister-in-law. Even if my mother doesn't worry about this matter, we two should take care of it.

We all have Jinxiu when you are so old. "

Li Xiangping didn't dare to say anything after hearing this.

Who made his mother praise his wife's status too high? Although she is not the head of the family now, she is the real head of their family, the young lady.

Didn't you see that even his mother was a bear? He wouldn't be so blind, so he shrank his head and remained silent.

At the same time, he also gave Yan Qingqing and Li Xiangan a helpless look.

Yan Qingqing knew that Yuan Huiniang had good intentions, so she pretended to cough and said: "Oh, Huiniang, how could you not care about your second brother's lifelong event?

I'm worried too, why don't you think there's a matchmaker coming to propose marriage to Xiang An? This kid is not bad looking either.

It's also my fault that your second brother is incompetent and doesn't know how to kidnap a wife. "

Li Xiangan:......

It's all his fault now, but he really has no intention of getting married now. If he had to get married, a figure flashed in his mind, but he immediately shook it off.

He must have been stimulated by his mother and sister-in-law to think wildly.

Yuan Huiniang saw that Yan Qingqing was on the same side as her on this matter, so she smiled and said: "Mom, actually you can't blame the second brother for this.

We are serious people, and we must pay attention to the instructions of our parents and the matchmaker.

Second brother can never do that kind of thing where we give and take things privately..."

At this point, Yuan Huiniang shut up. She was afraid that Yan Qingqing would be upset when she thought about Li Xiniang, so she changed the topic.

Then he said: "Maybe our family's family status is too high, how can ordinary people dare to come to propose marriage.

A few days ago, my third aunt told me that several matchmakers came to propose marriage to Xiang Bao.

She looked at several good ones, and she was asking someone to inquire about the girl's character these days. She even told me that she would settle on one if she was suitable. "

After listening to Yuan Huiniang's words, Yan Qingqing understood where Yuan Huiniang's anger came from.

Needless to say, Mrs. Xu was showing off in front of her, and then she realized that Li Xiang'an was obviously two years older than Li Xiangbao, and the marriage had not yet been settled.

After hearing what Yuan Huiniang said, Li Xiangan said disapprovingly: "Third Aunt is too impatient. Xiang Bao is not yet fifteen years old. Isn't it too early?"

Yuan Huiniang glared at him and said, "It's too early. You are already an adult at the age of fourteen. Second brother, please don't teach the younger brothers and sisters below.

I've asked someone to search for it these days, and if there's anything suitable, I'll make a decision for my second brother. "

Li Xiangan:......

He didn't understand. Didn't they have a meeting to discuss the next step in their family's business? Now it was related to his marriage, and looking at his sister-in-law's attitude, she wanted to force him to get married.
