After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 152 Buying a Shop

When she reached the river, she opened her clothes and saw traces of lovemaking on them. She washed them hastily. The water in the river was icy cold, but she still washed her clothes numbly.

Today, she was like this, in fact, she had a lot of revenge in her heart. She wanted to take revenge on Li Taohua and Chen Guifang, who didn't treat her as a human being. And Li Tieniu. In the past, even before today, she was looking forward to his return home, but now she knew that he had another family outside, and even a child, and Chen Guifang and Li Taohua knew about this. This was like pressing her face to the ground and hitting her! She was saying that in the past two years, Chen Guifang no longer urged her to have children. It turned out that she already had a grandson outside.

Now that they are unkind, don't blame her for being unjust!

After washing the clothes and preparing to go back, she just stood up and looked up to see Zhang Long standing on the mountain looking at her.

She turned around and walked back without any expression.

Zhang Long pinched his chin. To be honest, He Qing was just a little bit inferior in appearance, but in terms of temperament and the feeling of being together, Li Taohua could not compare...

When she returned home, Chen Guifang, for the first time, did not ask her why it took so long to wash the clothes. She hung the clothes up and then secretly brought a bucket of hot water back to the house.

She took off her clothes and looked at her body, which was covered with traces of lovemaking. Thinking about everything that happened in the cabin in the afternoon, she couldn't help but blush and her heart beat fast. She hadn't been loved for a long time. In the past, Li Tieniu would touch her when he came back, but in the past year, every time he came back, he would stay for a day and leave, and he wouldn't even sleep with her. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shed tears, but she was afraid that the neighbors would hear her, so she could only bury her face in her handkerchief. When she raised her head again, her eyes were much firmer.

......

The festive atmosphere is only felt strongly in the first few days, but once everyone has visited relatives and returned, the feeling will fade away.

As the fifteenth day of the lunar month was about to pass, Wang Dayi and his family prepared to go back.

Wang Xiaoya was still a little reluctant.

During the past ten days or so, Wang Hong went to the town to sell mushrooms except on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so she also earned some money.

Wang Qiuxia pulled Chen Xiuqun aside and said, "Hongwa also told me about my elder sister's matter. I'm sorry that my elder sister-in-law has wronged you."

Chen Xiuqun got angry when she mentioned this, and then she sighed unwillingly: "I have discussed this with your brother. After what happened, we can no longer be relatives. If they had come to us to beg for mercy that day, we would not have helped her anymore."

Wang Qiuxia nodded as if she understood and didn't say anything else.

Wang Hong said, "Aunt, uncle, after I sent my grandparents, parents back home, I came back to do business with my cousin's wife."

Wang Qiuxia smiled and nodded, asking him to drive the ox cart slower on the road.

After the group of people left, the house became quiet and Jiang Xiaohe was a little uncomfortable for a while.

However, after the man left, she called the two old people into the main hall and took out all the silver in the house. She had previously sold two hundred taels of silver from the wine she sold before. Before selling the wine, the family had more than ten taels of silver, and she also made more than thirty taels from selling the dolls. However, to build such a big house at home, she spent about eighty taels of silver, including entertaining guests. In addition, she sold mushrooms these days, so she had about one hundred and eighty taels of silver left.

"Dad, Mom! At first I was thinking of using this money to buy land, but now I'm thinking again, I want to use this money to do business and make money from it."

Wang Qiuxia looked at her in confusion after hearing what she said: "So we are not going to do the mushroom business anymore?"

"Yes, I want to do other business."

Wang Qiuxia had no idea and looked at Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu did not say anything. To be honest, in his heart, he was a farmer. It would be best if he could buy land. However, the money was earned by his daughter-in-law, so she had more control over it.

Jiang Xiaohe explained, "We eat hot pot during the Chinese New Year. You know about it, Dad and Mom. I want to open a hot pot restaurant and sell food. The food business is not complicated and the return on investment is fast. While Chuan'er is still young, we can still do some business and make some money. In a few years, when Chuan'er grows up and wants to go to school, we won't be able to do this business."

In ancient times, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants were the lowest class. Therefore, children from merchant families could not pass the imperial examinations. The fear was that officials and businessmen would collude and the people would suffer.

When she said this, Zhang Fu looked at her and said, "You mean..."

"We can make more money in these years. If Chuan'er wants to go to school in the future, we can just sell this business and buy land or a farm at that time!"

Since she said so, how could Zhang Fu disagree? If the business could be successful and they could really buy the farm, it would change the fate of the whole family.

"Listen to my daughter-in-law!"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad. Our business will definitely be successful by then!"

Zhang Fu held his knees with both hands and said, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work out. This money is earned by you. You can distribute it however you want, but don't put pressure on yourself."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded, thinking that old man Zhang Fu was really good. If there were more parents-in-law like him in later generations, there would be much less family conflicts!

But even if we fail, there is no need to worry, because the family still has the mushroom business to support it. If the grapes grow well this year, we can make wine again in the summer.

Now that I have decided to do business, should I rent or buy this shop?

Leaving the housework to Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu, she went to the town all day to look at shops. There were also local dental shops in the town that specialized in renting houses.

It was from the Yahang that Jiang Xiaohe learned that their town was actually very large. Since it was a place where merchants gathered, there were many restaurants and inns in the town.

Boss Hu of the dental shop saw that she had already looked at a few shops, so he asked, "Madam, you have also looked at a few of these shops. Do you know if there is any suitable one?"

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head. At first she wanted to rent a shop, but later she thought it would be more cost-effective to buy it. If the shop stopped doing business in the future, renting it to others would also be a source of income. However, she had limited money now.

Houses in good locations are expensive. If you buy one, you will have to renovate it and hire people, and the remaining money will not be enough to do anything.

This recipe is cheap, but the location is not good. She is doing business and needs traffic, so this is a dilemma.

"Boss Hu, I really want to buy a house to do business, but these houses are either too expensive or in a bad location. Do you think you can find a way to balance it out?"

"What you saw before, my lady, weren't you satisfied?"

“It’s mainly because of limited funds.”

Boss Hu was in a dilemma. At this time, a young man came in and said he wanted to sell their shop.

Boss Hu hurried to entertain them.

When Jiang Xiaohe heard the location of the shop he wanted to sell and the price of the shop, she immediately pricked up her ears and looked at Boss Hu.

Boss Hu understood immediately and said to the man, "Boss Sun, you are in a hurry to sell your shop, and this lady is also in a hurry to buy a shop. It happens that you are both here, why don't you talk about it together."

Jiang Xiaohe quickly bowed slightly, and Sun Ming, who was called Boss Sun, quickly cupped his hands.
