Female supremacy: leading the whole family to change their family
Chapter 91: Han Family Opens a Shop
Han's father looked at Han Yuqing with admiration, he never expected that his son could actually take this step and become the husband of a seventh-rank editor, not to mention that he now had a daughter, which really made him excited.
Father Gu and the others laughed and said: "Your in-laws should just live at home. We have a lot of rooms, and we can have a good chat with Yuqing."
Father Gu had a very good impression of the Han family. Although they were merchants, they were very kind to their children, so he gave them a lot of gifts almost every New Year and other festivals.
Moreover, Gu Yao was still cooperating with the Han family, so he thought that since they were relatives, he would let them stay at home for a while longer.
Zhang saw anticipation in Han's mother's eyes and he really wanted to spend a few more days with his son.
He misses his granddaughter especially since he rarely sees her.
Seeing the expectation in his eyes, Han's mother thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll bother you, my in-laws."
"Oh, it doesn't matter if you disturb me or not. We are all family, so don't be so polite."
Lin Wulang had already arranged the house. He thought that the Han family would definitely live at home, so he asked them to clean the yard well to make it convenient for them to move in.
Han Yuqing saw that the house was cleaned very well and even had a few servants sent inside to serve, and she looked at Lin Wulang with gratitude.
He quickly pulled Zhang's arm and said, "Dad, let's go sit in my yard. I want to have a good talk with you."
Zhang was very happy and had long wanted to have a good talk with her son.
"Then let's go, take our An An with you. I only saw you when you gave birth, but I rarely saw you after that. It really makes me sad."
I came to Han Yuqing's yard and looked around it. It seemed very beautifully decorated.
Things are also good things, sighing: "You are lucky, now you are the husband of an official family, I feel relieved, and our granddaughter is also the daughter of a wealthy family."
Han Yuqing touched Gu An's head and said, "In two years she will be able to start learning. The teacher at home has been invited here and is now teaching her elder sister."
Zhang looked at his belly and thought, "You still have to have two more children. After all, your family can afford it. We men rely on our wives and children, don't we?"
Han Yuqing said after hearing this: "This matter still depends on fate, and my wife likes me very much. She stays in my yard for a period of time almost every month."
Zhang was even happier: "In that case, you should prepare well and have another child. Also, drink more supplements and take good care of your body. You should also be more careful with An An and take care of him more yourself. The child will become closer to you only when he is with his father."
Gu An is the granddaughter of their Han family, and she cannot be fooled by others.
The Han family cannot hold official positions, so now Han Yuqing and Gu An have become the Han family's backers.
Nowadays, there are very few people in the county who would offend the Han family. After all, the Han family has a young master who is from an official family.
"I know in my heart that you should live in Gu's house for the time being. We can have a good talk. An An also wants to be closer to you."
Looking at her fair and tender granddaughter, Zhang liked her more and more, and quickly asked the servant beside her to bring the things over.
"I bought these specially in the county. They are all good things, including these jewelry. I'll give you a few sets, and leave the rest to An An. She is my granddaughter, and I can't treat her badly."
Zhang was reluctant to part with her own flesh and blood, and took many valuable things from the Han family when she left.
After all, he has no flesh and blood of his own, only Han Yuqing.
That's why he wouldn't save money for the Han family. No matter how much he saved, it would still go into someone else's pocket. In that case, he might as well give it all to Qing'er.
Looking at these good things, Han Yuqing's eyes turned red, and he choked up and said: "Dad, you should have more valuable things in your hands. Although I am here, I am too far away. I am afraid that if I am not by your side, other people in the Han family will bully you."
Zhang touched Gu An's head and said, "They dare not. As long as you are here, your mother will be nice to me, so they dare not complain about what I want to give you. I will feel at ease if you and An An are doing well."
He doesn't care about anything except his children. Now he lives a good life, his son lives a good life, he has a status, and he even has his own granddaughter, so he feels that this kind of life is much better.
"It would be great if you were in the capital, so I could go back to my parents' home."
Zhang smiled happily after hearing this: "We came here this time because your mother wants to do business in the capital. We have been in partnership with your wife before, and the business is profitable, so we want to open a store in the capital to see if we can open up a trade route in the capital."
Han Yuqing was surprised when he heard this: "Great, if that's the case, I can talk to you in the future."
Zhang was a little helpless: "I still have to go back. After all, our hometown is in the county town. We can't leave the county town. Besides, we have business in our hometown. And your brothers and sisters are not easy to leave. So I can't stay too long if they don't come this time."
Han Yuqing felt a little disappointed. He thought his relatives would stay in the capital, but he thought it would be fine if they could stay for a while.
Gu Yao didn't know that Han Yuqing's family was coming, so she accompanied Han's mother for a drink that night. The two chatted for a long time about business matters.
She was very happy that the Han family was going to open a store in Beijing and cooperate with her. After all, who would complain about not making enough money?
Gu Yao can just take the dividends and live a comfortable life. Her family will have money too, so they can buy a bigger farm in time.
Mother Han was very happy to see that Gu Yao was still as respectful to her as ever.
No wonder he can become a high-ranking official and run a wealthy family. This is something many people cannot compare to.
He really has a good daughter-in-law and hopes that his son can seize the opportunity and serve Gu Yao well, so that their Han family will have more and more benefits.
Since Gu Yao wants to cooperate with the Han family in Beijing, the sooner the better.
And she had also looked at some shops before, so she asked Han's mother and Gu's mother to inspect them frequently together.
Gu Yao naturally had some ideas about what to do with these shops. After discussing it with Han's mother for an evening, Han's mother was very excited.
She thought that she must work hard to move her family business to Beijing.
She would not give up the county town. After all, it was her base camp. There were many dignitaries in the capital and they could only get a small share of the spoils.
But even if they could drink one more sip of soup, it would be a huge benefit for the Han family.
After all, consumption in Beijing is high, and she has never thought of being too conspicuous in Beijing.
Stable development is necessary, so that their lives in the county will get better and better.
As the Han family's store became more and more stable in the capital, the Gu family's business also grew with the little money they earned.
Everyone in the family is now living a much better life, and is now more refined than before.
Although things are going better and better at home, there are still people at work who make everyone a little scared.
As soon as Gu Yao arrived at the Hanlin Academy, Zheng Shuyi came over with a look of fear on her face.
"A Yuan, something big might happen. Let's stay in the corner and don't talk to others, lest we get into trouble.
Seeing her expression, Gu Yao's heart skipped a beat and she quickly asked, "What happened to Sister Zheng? Is there something big happening in the court?"
This might be the only thing that could make Zheng Shuyi so taboo. She didn't have many connections in the court and could only hear some gossip at most. After all, her good friend only held a low position in the Hanlin Academy.
Zheng Shuyi was different. Her uncle was a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Works, so it was easy for her to get some information.
"I heard that corruption occurred in Hezhou. His Majesty has already known about it and has been investigating the matter in the past few days. I guess some more officials will be brought down."
Gu Yao was shocked when she heard this and murmured to herself, "Who is so bold as to embezzle? Don't you know that His Majesty will not tolerate any sand in his eyes? Sister, we should be careful in what we say and do during this period. We should not attend some literary gatherings and banquets, so as not to offend others and be used as a scapegoat."
Zheng Shuyi nodded immediately: "I know, my family said the same thing."
Sure enough, no one in the Hanlin Academy spoke that day, and even if they spoke, they spoke in low voices, and even the academicians were in a bad mood.
This matter involves a lot of people, and probably also involves some people from the Hanlin Academy.
In the afternoon, some inconspicuous officials from the Hanlin Academy had been taken away. When they were taken away, their faces were horrified and full of despair, and they didn't even dare to beg for mercy.
It was obvious at first glance that they were definitely involved. Gu Yao sighed inwardly. It was not easy for them to pass the imperial examination and become an official. Why did they have to get involved in this matter? Don’t they think about their families behind them?
As some officials from the Hanlin Academy were taken away, everyone pricked up their ears to see if anyone was going to cause trouble for them.
The next day, some officials from the sixth, seventh and fourth ranks were also taken away, which made the academician look very unhappy.
She also didn't expect that Hanlin Garden had been infiltrated so deeply.
This corruption case was investigated for two months in total, and everyone had a hard time during these two months.
Even the salary has not been paid, but now no one is thinking about the salary anymore.
After all, there is a possibility that you may even lose your life, so why bother worrying about the salary? You should first save your own life and your family.
The entire family of the official who was taken away had their property confiscated and was exiled. It is estimated that they will never be able to hold official positions again.
After all, His Majesty has said in the court that those who participated in this matter will not be allowed to take the imperial examinations for three generations.
Two months later, the dust settled and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Qian Xiumin invited her and Zheng Shuyi to a small restaurant for dinner, and whispered: "It's good that we are not implicated, but some people are upset. Shuyi, Ayao, you should work hard during this period. I think you two will be promoted again. After all, the Hanlin Academy is short of so many people now, and you two are not bad in the eyes of the academicians."
Zheng Shuyi's face lit up when she heard this and she said, "Sister Qian, do you want a promotion too? It's a good thing if you get a promotion."
Gu Yao sighed after hearing this: "To be honest, I'm still a little scared during this period. After all, I have family behind me, and I'm afraid that if I make a wrong move, I'll become a stepping stone for those people."
After hearing this, Qian Xiumin said: "We just need to be cautious and not get involved in these things. We should do our jobs well. At most, we should not be too prominent. Anyway, we just need to protect our families."
Gu Yao listened to her and said, "You are right. Sister Zheng should just work honestly in the Hanlin Academy in the future."
Gu's mother and the others also knew that Gu Yao had been acting a little strange recently. She was very serious during every meal and the house was much quieter.
The mother looked at Gu Yao like this and asked, "Ayao, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? Why don't you tell us so that we can discuss it together."
Gu Yao looked up at the worried faces of her family members and said, "Nothing, I'm just thinking about some work. Don't worry, I'm fine."
This is a big deal, and she won't tell anyone. After all, her family members don't know much about court affairs, and it would be troublesome to tell them.
Now that the dust has settled, anyone would be scared if so many people were killed.
At this time, Father Gu said, "Speaking of which, the capital is also dangerous. Many people's homes have been raided recently. I heard that many high-ranking officials have been beheaded. Ayao, I hope you won't be implicated."
When Lin Wulang and the others heard this, they looked at Gu Yao worriedly, fearing that she might be in trouble.
Gu Yao knew that His Majesty was dealing with these corrupt officials, and people in the capital must have known about it.
Gu's father and his family would sometimes go out to play or attend parties all day long, and they knew that others would tell them about it.
"These are all because of some mistakes I made. If I hadn't made any mistakes, no one would have treated me like this. I was promoted, so don't worry, I'm fine."
Gu's mother has become very powerful now and can read people's faces. You can tell she is not telling the truth by listening to her words.
Considering that many high-ranking officials have fallen during this period, it could be that things in the court are a bit troublesome.
I originally wanted to comfort her, but I thought that after all, she didn't understand the affairs of the court. Gu Yao is an official, so it's better not to cause me trouble.
She just needs to manage the business and let the men in the family comfort Gu Yao.
After a few days, this matter was completely forgotten, or it could be said that it was passively forgotten.
They couldn't dwell on the past and could only look forward. At this time, she looked at Father Gu's happy expression and asked, "Dad, why are you so happy? What's the good news?"
She thought it was nothing serious, or maybe one of her three wives was pregnant.
Turning around and looking at them, he knew that there probably wasn't any, and then he looked at Lin Wulang with expectant eyes.
Lin Wulang knew what she was thinking at a glance, and said angrily: "My wife is a great blessing for my two younger brothers. They are both pregnant."
He said it quickly so that his wife wouldn't think they were pregnant.
Gu Yao smiled as soon as she heard this and said, "This is good news. Dad and Mom, please quickly open the warehouse and pick up some good things for the two younger brothers to send to them. This is our Gu family's grandson, please don't neglect him."
She didn't expect that after not paying attention to the Zheng family's affairs for the past few months, her two younger brothers actually became pregnant.
