Chapter 600 Can pearls be cultivated?

Shen Youyou certainly didn't dare to answer this question, and could only fool around with a guilty conscience:

"I just happened to see him once when I came to Zhigu. There's nothing much to say. My sister Erya didn't have a deep impression of him. Didn't he go to Shuntianfu again?

Grandma, don't talk about this. Anyway, my sister Erya doesn't have that intention. She just wants to stay with her family. I think it's good for her to stay with her family. If it doesn't work out, we can find a husband for her. It's not like our family can't afford one now."

Grandma Hua really felt that her granddaughter's words sounded naive:

"You really think you are willing to recruit a son-in-law because of your good conditions. Some of those who agree to recruit a son-in-law are here for the person. Although our family is not afraid that he will bully your second sister, I saw today that the young master of the Cao Gang is not bad."

Shen Youyou felt relieved when she saw that her grandmother had no intention of blaming her. However, she still agreed with Erya's opinion, thinking that marrying far away might not be a good thing in modern times.

What’s more, this was the ancient time when people had three wives and four concubines.

"Grandma, are you willing to let my second sister marry far away? You won't even know if she gets bullied."

Old Lady Hua sighed and said, "I don't know who dares. Your brothers will demolish the house for him. Besides, isn't he the third child in the family? He is also the youngest child. Maybe he can settle down in Shuntian Prefecture in the future."

Her grandma really thinks far ahead. Erya sister hasn’t had that intention yet, but grandma has already thought about their future life.

In fact, she didn't know that her grandmother was so excited by today's excitement that she had a lot on her mind.

Also because of what Li Jingshu said, in the future you and my father will celebrate their birthdays, or when the children in the family get married.

The old lady had imagined how lively it would be when her granddaughters got married.

She has also made up her mind to urge her older sisters to work harder, if for no other reason than to be able to give each of her granddaughters dozens of dowries in the future.

When the girl carries her dowry and walks down the street, everyone will talk about how noble her family is, and no one will dare to bully her when she goes to her husband's house.

As for her grandsons getting married, the old lady is not too worried, because now the clan has let her third son teach them, and she is afraid that her grandsons will be afraid of their wives in the future.

After that, the old lady became even more imaginative, planning everything from what dowries to prepare for her granddaughters to what kind of wood the dowry boxes should be made of.

No matter what kind of furniture you make, the wood you choose must also be good.

Until suddenly he said, if I die in the future, I must choose good wood to make a coffin, because that is my eternal home.

Shen Youyou was speechless. Today is a happy day, right? What happened? Why did they go from talking about getting married to talking about coffins?

Especially, because of the departure of her grandparents in her previous life, she didn't want to hear about this topic at all.

But fortunately, her grandma is also in a state of wild imagination at this moment. Look, the sad expression on her face just now has changed again.

"Fortunately, you and your father can both make money. Think of more ways to make money in the future. When you get married, you sisters will definitely choose the best one. After all, your father is the most promising.

Oh my! If I think about it this way, if the other party's family background matches ours, but our family is poor, the betrothal gifts they give us may be jade, agate or big pearls.

It would not be justified for our family to only give furniture and quilts. At least ours should be similar to others so that people will not look down on us.

Otherwise, if one end is too high and the other end is too low, you will have to crane your neck to look at others from the beginning, and then you will not be able to live your life."

Hearing this, she knew that her grandmother was really worried. In fact, Shen Youyou was also worried. She really wanted to tell her grandmother directly that she didn’t need to get married and her family didn’t need to prepare a dowry.

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she really didn't dare to say them, because she could see from her grandmother's eyes that she hoped she would be happy in the future.

Maybe this is the generation gap. She truly feels that she can be very happy, but her grandmother thinks she needs someone to rely on.

But who is Shen Youyou? She just has a way to divert her grandmother's attention.

"Grandma, do you know how pearls are formed?"

She looked at her with a look of "Do you think I've never seen the world?" "How could I not know? They grow in shells. In the sea far away, there are shells that can grow pearls.

I was thinking that after today's work, we should go back and take your mother and aunts to have a look. Maybe we can be lucky enough to find pearls in the shells."

Shen Youyou smiled. Grandma’s idea was beautiful, but it was exactly what she wanted: “Grandma, not all shells have pearls, but I know which shells have them.

I also know how to make pearls grow quickly. How about we go and investigate tomorrow and do some research to build a pearl breeding base?"

This time the old lady sat up in shock in the middle of the night.

"What? You can raise pearls? Just like raising fish?"

"Yes, it's possible. Why don't you give it a try? You can call a few grandmas and I will invest with you. When we make a lot of money, we can buy dozens of dowries for my sisters, right?"

As a result, after being fooled by Shen Youyou, the old lady was no longer worried at all. She even dreamed about the pearl at night. The pearl was just like the water in the faucet at home.

Rushing out with a loud noise.

When I was dreaming, I saw myself lying in gold and silver pearls. The pearls were so bright. Some of them were as big as fists and sparkled brightly.

The old lady rubbed her eyes because of the shaking. It might be because of the fantasy her little granddaughter had before going to bed. She felt like she was woken up by the beads the next day.

Shen Youyou was still in a daze when she heard the gurgling sound of her grandmother. After a while, she heard her grandmother mumbling something.

Her long eyelashes moved: It seems that I fooled grandma too much yesterday. I should be more careful next time.

It was on this day, in a mansion in Zhigu.

Huo Hai, the leader of the Cao Gang, had just returned home from a restaurant with his third son.

Her wife hurried out to greet him, and asked as soon as they met: "How are you? Did you talk?"

It seems that the couple are quite concerned about their youngest son's marriage.

However, Huo Hai's face looked normal and expressionless, but seeing that her youngest son looked a little listless, Mrs. Huo had a rough idea in her mind.

In fact, Mrs. Huo was really worried. This youngest son was the eldest in the family and was spoiled by him and his wife since he was young. He always played with cats and dogs when he was young.

When he grew up, he became a playboy in Zhigu City, going to brothels and singing houses every day.

Although the person she sent to follow her reported back that her youngest son just went to watch the singing and dancing and did not do anything out of the ordinary.

But his reputation was really bad. Her master and eldest son worried a lot about this youngest son, but there was nothing they could do.

Suddenly one day he came back from the brothel and never went there again. At that time, she thought her youngest son was sick, as he locked himself in the yard for several days and did not go out.

Before I could figure out what was going on, I heard my youngest son say that he was going to Kyoto.

The couple became suspicious and learned the reason from the servant.

To be honest, the two of them were really happy from the bottom of their hearts. When the Nine Clans were building the workshop before, some of them really wanted to make trouble by relying on their status as locals.

It was his master who took care of all the issues. He thought that people would consider his family's sincerity and not care too much about his younger son's reputation.

Now it seems, alas!
