On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 20: No ink in the chest, no talent in the brain
Jiang Mingyuan was very dissatisfied with Jiang Nian's performance yesterday and wanted to teach her a lesson, but Jiang Nian did not give him a chance.
When he returned that day, he locked the gate early. He left the house at dawn the next day and did not return until evening.
Since he couldn't see her for a long time, Jiang Mingyuan simply disappeared and treated her coldly.
Jiang Nian was happy and at ease, and went out with Baozhu.
That day, she asked Jiang Mingyuan for a shop. It was her mother's dowry, so she had to go and take a look.
Qiuyu got the news and started gossiping in front of Jiang Nian again, "Young lady, the eldest master actually gave his silk shop to you, young lady, and the master and the mistress don't care about it?"
In the past, the eldest son was only nice to her daughter, but now he has taken Jiang Nian to heart, taking her to poetry gatherings and to the suburbs to relax. Now he even gave her a shop. Won't he rebel in the future?
Why should an unpopular girl who just came back from the border be treated like this?
Their girls are the most favored girls in the mansion!
The second girl had only gotten some jewelry and other things during her daily life. She had just returned and she was already competing with her own daughter for the eldest young master.
Qiuyu was filled with hatred, wishing Jiang Nian would never come back.
......
Standing in front of the shop was a man in his thirties with a beard, looking honest and simple.
Seeing Jiang Nian approaching, he immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, young lady. The young master has already instructed me. Now, you just need to order the people in the silk shop."
That's what they said, but who among them didn't know that the young lady had just returned from the border? She was uneducated and untalented, so she probably didn't even know how to write the word "business".
Send? How to send?
Today is just a formality, just to show off.
Jiang Nian stepped into the silk shop, took a quick look, and then sat down. The shop assistant quickly served him tea.
He took a small sip and found it not very tasty. Jiang Nian remained silent.
The steward beside him stood there for a long time and began to feel dissatisfied, so he asked, "Miss, are you here today for something?"
"I just came out to take a look because I was bored in the mansion. Don't worry about me, just go and get busy."
The business of the silk shop is not very good. Since Jiang Nian came in, not many people come to look at the cloth.
In fact, she had been here yesterday, but she didn't come in. She just looked at the teahouse opposite for a while.
From morning till the end of the Si hour, there were less than ten guests.
The manager looked as if to say, "As expected," and actually turned around and left.
At this time, a woman walked in with cloth in her hands, and said she wanted to change the cloth as soon as she came in.
It was probably that this lady bought two pieces of cloth from a silk shop, but there were defects on the cloth, but the clerk denied it and said that she didn't buy it here.
Jiang Nian looked over when she heard the voice. She had seen that girl yesterday, and the cloth in her hand was also brought out from here.
Jiang Mingyuan is really good at managing the shop. A customer came yesterday, but he didn't recognize him today.
No wonder there are so few customers. If there were more customers, it would be like these customers got kicked in the head by a donkey.
He slowly stood up and walked to the girl. "My dear lady, please don't be angry because the guy is ignorant. How about this? I will replace a batch of new ones for you and give you two extra horses. What do you think?"
The woman originally refused, but when she heard that it was free, she immediately agreed, stopped making a fuss, and went out happily.
"Miss, what do you mean?" The manager raised his voice, obviously dissatisfied.
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"Of course I'll kick her out. If I set a precedent for her today, more people will come in the future. Miss, you don't understand the difficulties of doing business..."
"So did these cloths come out from here?"
The manager choked and the servants all lowered their heads and remained silent.
This means that there are more defective cloths like this, and quite a few have been sold. There are even more people who come to return or exchange them than just the one today.
"Is this how the eldest master teaches you how to do business?"
The manager immediately started to flatter her: "Miss, you know this business is not easy to do..."
"Manager Li, starting tomorrow, you don't have to come anymore."
After saying that, he looked at the guy and said, "And you, come along too."
The steward's expression immediately changed: "We are all the Madam and the eldest son's people. The eldest lady has no right to drive us away!"
Jiang Nian said calmly: "Oh, since it's their people, then you can go find them. What does it have to do with me?"
The steward was so angry that he was puffing his beard and glaring, but the person in front of him was the eldest daughter of the master family, so they didn't have the courage to take action.
Glancing at the others, Jiang Nian sat down again and said, "Throw these two out. Whoever throws them out will be rewarded with two taels of silver."
Two taels of silver is an amount of money that ordinary people probably cannot earn in several months.
Hearing this, the remaining guys stepped forward together, lifted the two men and threw them out.
"I have taken over this silk shop. If anyone still remembers the kindness of the concubine and the eldest son, please leave as soon as possible today to avoid future trouble. Also, if there is a situation like today again, and it belongs to our silk shop, we will deal with it as we did just now."
Her mother's things shouldn't have those disgusting things.
Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to speak anymore.
When the young lady came in just now, she ignored everyone. She never expected that she would be such a tough person.
only......
The eldest master and his wife are not easy to deal with. This young lady is probably in trouble.
After Baozhu gave him the silver, Shen Qingtang left the silk shop.
Baozhu said worriedly, "Miss, those people won't let this go."
"It's okay, the eldest son and Feng Shi won't care."
When someone can benefit from you, not to mention the person under you, even yourself, you have to persuade yourself to be more open-minded.
When she returned home, it was already late and there was no movement in the front yard. Jiang Nian knew that no one would bother her about what happened during the day.
In the evening, Baozhu locked the courtyard door. Jiang Nian was still reading at the table when he heard a knock on the door.
Baozhu hurried out and asked, "Who is it so late?"
There was silence outside the yard for a long time before a voice was heard again: "It's me, Aunt Liu."
Baozhu hurried to open the door, led the person into the room, served tea and then left. Only two people were left in the room.
"Aunt, have you figured it out?" Jiang Nian pushed the teacup towards the opposite side and asked with a smile.
Jiang Nian was wearing an inner garment with a jacket on the outside. She had taken off her hairpins and rings, and her black hair was loose. Her little face was fair, which made her look a bit childish.
Aunt Liu paused slightly, but she was still a child.
"I've thought about it, and you make sense."
Jiang Nian smiled. She looked innocent and cute, but her words hit the nail on the head. "My eldest brother has come to see you, right?"
Aunt Liu was surprised again: "How do you know?"
"Did he tell you that your child was indeed killed by my mother, and asked you to join him... to deal with me?"
According to Jiang Mingyuan's personality, he would definitely say that as Lin's son, he couldn't bear to see Aunt Liu suffer the pain of losing her son for so many years, and wanted to atone for his mother's sins.
This time, Aunt Liu really believed it. She didn't expect that the eldest master would say such words.
She hated Lin, but after hearing what Jiang Nian said last time, she began to doubt it. Jiang Mingyuan's words made her even more horrified.
If we get rid of the eldest daughter in the mansion, it will be easy to deal with Lin. Then, wouldn't Feng be even more proud?
"You said you wanted to join forces with me, how exactly are we going to do that?"
"The Jiang family's stewardship has been in Feng's hands for so many years, isn't Aunt jealous? We're both Aunts, so why does she have such a glorious life? As long as Aunts takes charge, it will be much easier to come and go. Then, my brother will have a place to go."
"But... you're alone at home now, how can you deal with Feng? Besides, there's an old lady above you. How... are you going to deal with it?"
"If Auntie really wants to join forces with me, just go back and wait for news. You will know then."
