Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Gu Yichuan responded with a smile, "I believe Nan Kui."

Mother Gu suddenly realized, "Wait... be a teacher? Didn't they lock up the private school and kick her out?"

Gu Yichuan said: "Mother, my sister-in-law just told you that everything has been resolved, but you just don't believe it."

"Are you really okay?" Gu's mother looked incredulous.

"It's okay. From now on, you won't hear anyone gossiping about the Gu family anymore. Nan Kui will continue to teach in the private school, and you are still the respected old lady of the Gu family. If you don't believe me, go out and ask around."

Mother Gu was ashamed and said, "I don't have the face to show off..."

Even if no one was talking about it now, the gossip she heard a few days ago still seemed to echo in her ears, and she was embarrassed to go out.

However, Mother Gu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the look she gave Shen Nankui was no longer so harsh.

"Chuan'er, daughter-in-law, tell me, how do you want to make money?"

Shen Nankui said: "I have already thought of a way, but I haven't gathered the capital yet..."

As they were talking, Gu Qingrong's voice suddenly came from the yard.

"Second brother and sister-in-law, there's a letter from the Shen family!"

He entered the hall panting, took a breath, and then said, "On my way home just now, I happened to be at the foot of the mountain and met someone who came to our house to deliver a letter. I asked him to give me the letter. Second sister-in-law, this is a letter from your mother's family. Please open it and take a look."

Gu Qingrong handed an envelope to Shen Nankui.

Shen Nankui was a little surprised. She took the letter and the handwriting on the envelope looked like He's. Seeing that everyone was staring at her, she opened the letter to read.

As soon as she finished reading the letter, Mother Gu asked first, "What's the matter with the Shen family's letter?"

Shen Nankui frowned slightly.

She smiled and said, "It's nothing. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming. I didn't go home on the day of returning home. After a few months, my father and mother missed me so much that they wanted me and my husband to go back to the Shen family to have a reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Although this was written in the letter, Shen Nankui knew that it was certainly not the case.

Now, Mr. Shen and Mrs. He no longer have the affection for her they once had. Could it be that they have something else in this letter asking her to go back?

According to the memory of the previous life, at this stage, the injuries of the Prince of Jianning have almost healed. Could it be that Shen Pingwan has discovered the truth?

Mother Gu couldn't help but curl her lips after hearing this, "Mid-Autumn Festival is a big festival. After the autumn harvest, our whole family has always celebrated the festival together by worshipping the moon. How can we let Chuan'er go to your mother's house with you on such an important day?"

Gu Yichuan shook his head helplessly, "Mom, that's not what you said. Originally, on the day of returning home, I didn't go back because the journey was too long. It's only natural that my father-in-law and mother-in-law miss their daughter after so much time has passed. Now they have specially sent a message to me, so I should accompany Nan Kui back."

"You are so enthusiastic and eager to go."

Seeing her son leaning towards Yue's family, Gu's mother couldn't help feeling jealous.

"As far as feelings are concerned, the Shen family is my in-laws' family. As a son-in-law, I should visit them often. Logically, my father-in-law has helped me and is a teacher to me. I should go there no matter what. Even if I hadn't received this letter, I would have waited until the weather was cooler and taken Nan Kui back to her parents' home to have her stay for a few days."

Mother Gu waved her hands impatiently. She was helpless with her second son.

"Well, you are the only one who has a lot of reasons. If you want to go, go ahead."

Gu Yichuan smiled and bowed, "Thank you for your understanding, mother."

Mother Gu rolled her eyes at him helplessly.

She looked at Shen Nankui again, with a little eagerness in her eyes, "By the way, you haven't finished talking about it just now, what is the way to make money?"

"money?"

Gu Qingrong suddenly slapped his head and said, "Oh, I only remembered to send a message to my sister-in-law, and almost forgot the main thing!"

Seeing him so startled and interrupting her, Mother Gu couldn't help but frown.

"Boss, you are already old and a father of two children, can you be more stable?"

Gu Qingrong blushed and said awkwardly, "I was distracted by this letter just now and I didn't remember it..."

"What's going on?"

Gu Qingrong took out two thin pieces of paper from his sleeve with a smile, carefully unfolded them and handed them to Shen Nankui.

"This is... two hundred taels of silver?"

Shen Nankui took it in his hand and was stunned.

Gu Qingrong smiled and said, "Second brother's wife, do you still remember the account book I asked you to check for me last time?"

"After I took it back and reported it, the boss followed the direction you pointed out and arrested several people who had been falsifying accounts for years, involving a sum of several thousand taels of silver. Once the accounts were cleared, those who should pay compensation paid, and those who should be sent to the authorities were sent to the authorities. These two hundred taels of silver were given to you by the boss on purpose, as a thank you for helping him a great favor."

"Is there such a good thing?" Liang said happily.

Mother Gu was also delighted. "Qingrong, your boss is really generous. Two hundred taels of silver is not a small amount. How can you give it to me just by saying so?"

"If you ask me, it's my second brother and his wife who are really capable. They helped the boss find out these bad debts. Compared with the losses that the boss has stopped, these two hundred taels of silver are nothing!"

Gu Qingrong looked proud.

Because of Shen Nankui's face, the boss treated him extra politely recently and even doubled his wages. Now he can get five taels of silver a month.

It’s twice as much as before!

Shen Nankui smiled and shook his head, "Brother, your boss is really too polite. I checked those accounts because of you. If he wants to thank someone, he should thank you."

Gu Qingrong waved his hand, "Let's put it this way, second sister-in-law, this credit is yours. Besides, the boss has already raised my salary."

The few people were talking excitedly, but Gu Yichuan was confused.

"What accounts are you talking about?"

Seeing that he looked completely clueless, Shen Nankui found it quite funny and told him about the time when he helped Gu Qingrong to look at the account books.

Gu Yichuan finally understood and said proudly, "She is worthy of being my wife!"

Mother Gu looked at the banknotes in Shen Nankui's hand, her eyes seemed to be glued to them.

She suddenly stood up and walked towards Shen Nankui.

"Second son's wife, according to the rules, these two hundred taels of silver should be given to me for safekeeping."

As she spoke, she reached out to take the banknote, but found nothing.

When Mother Gu saw Shen Nankui dared to hide, her face darkened immediately, "How dare you embezzle so much money?"

Shen Nankui held the banknote between his fingertips, put his hands behind his back, and smiled dignifiedly and kindly.

"Mother-in-law, I just said that I was short of some capital to start a business. Now I have the money, don't I?"

"If you want to make money from your money and turn two hundred taels into two thousand taels, it's better to leave it in my hands."

Mother Gu was stunned. "What did you say? Two thousand taels...of silver? Are you kidding me?"

"I do what I say." Shen Nankui answered straightforwardly.

In fact, she was being a bit conservative when she said two thousand taels of silver. As long as she had the capital to operate, it would not be difficult for her to earn as many two thousand taels as she wanted.

Seeing that she spoke so confidently, it was Gu's mother's turn to be surprised.

Can she really earn two thousand taels of silver?

I have never seen so much money in my life. If this is true, wouldn’t the Gu family be rich?
