Blissful Days After Widowhood - Chapter 82

    Emperor Zheng Yuan gave the whole boat line, and everyone in the British government including Gu Yin was flattered.

    But all kinds of deeds have been sent directly, so naturally it is not easy to refuse.

    As for the owner of the deed, everyone mentioned Gu Yin’s name.

    Not waiting for her to decline, Wang said that she didn’t understand anything, and now she just wants to accompany Wu Zhong to live a long life. Wu Qingyi also said that this industry is too big, and it is too conspicuous to put it in his name .

    Not to mention Wu Zhong. Although he has exercised for a while, his body has improved a lot, but he is still a patient. He mocks himself that his current body cannot handle these affairs.

    The whole family seems to think the industry is hot.

    But what they said did make sense. As an owner of a shipping company, you must be busy with big and small affairs. Especially in the early days when there were not enough manpower, and some were busy, the owners themselves had to be present for the documents for handling the shipping permit later.

    Gu Yin is not afraid of being busy, but the restaurant business is booming, both outside the city and in the center of the city.

    The properties of ordinary large families are scattered in the name of a large family, or in the name of a loyal and reliable family. In fact, it makes no difference if the deed of prostitution of a family child is in the hands of the master, it’s just a cheap act.

    There are fewer masters in the British palace, and fewer loyal servants are trained by one hand. It really stumped everyone for a while.

    Gu Ye listened to it, and said, “Actually, it’s okay to write my name.”

    Gu Yin nodded his forehead amusingly, “Little money fan, there will be big or small matters at that time, but you have to be present, and some are busy.”

    Gu Ye nodded and said, “Grandpa and grandma are getting old, uncle and mother have their own affairs, and they are usually very busy. Even Wu An has to study, so I have nothing to do!”

      It is also possible.

    Gu Yin and Wang Shi had no objection, Wu Zhong cheerfully said: “Ono is very ambitious!” This is also in agreement.

    Wu Qingyi, not to mention Wu Qingyi, was in a hurry to establish a good relationship with Gu Ye, and was waiting for him to change his words and call “Father”.

    “Then put it in Ono’s name.”

    Wu Qingyi took a rest the next day, and he took their mother and son to go through the formalities.

    He was startled, the boat was really big, the size of a house. Climbing up is like being on land.

    It was only now that Gu Ye knew how much property he had registered under his name, what kind of shop did he think it was, just like his own restaurant.

    He was shocked and amazed, wandering around the boat for a long time without finishing it.

    But this time was enough for him to digest his emotions. When he got off the boat, he patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, mother, I will definitely take care of this boat!”

    In winter, the canal and the adjacent sea are frozen, making it impossible to sail.

    Taking advantage of this time, the boat line will naturally recruit troops and increase its manpower. When the spring begins, the boat will be able to move.

    This work does not need Gu Yin to worry about it, Wu Qingyi will do it.

     Recruit these people who already know water first, and then use the winter to recruit and train others.

    After the idea was formed, Wu Qingyi still reported it to Emperor Zhengyuan, and he came forward and took the merit.

    Emperor Zheng Yuan didn’t know what to say, it was because Wu Qingyi had credit, and his family adopted and took care of his eldest son, so he gave him enough rewards.

    Unexpectedly, at this time, Wu Qingyi did not forget to help himself.

    The boat line is equivalent to the left hand guiding the right hand, and it is still in the hands of my own family, but it is fine. Anyway, when the eldest son recognizes his ancestors and returns to his ancestors, the things that should be given to the British government will only be more or less. .

    Ocean-Ocean Shipping Line changed its name to Gu’s Shipping Line, and Wu Qingyi and Gu Ye were busy with the follow-up.

    Gu Yin still cooks her own restaurant.

    At the end of November, the end of Taibai Street was lit up with lights, and a large restaurant not inferior to Shiweitian Restaurant changed its owner, renovated it, and was about to open soon.

      Because of the situation that the top three floors are still to be repaired, it is a lot more expensive, more than 20,000 taels.

    The restaurant had been knocking and beating for a few days, and the signboard was hung up first, and the name was very loud, called “Wangtianlou”.

    Just looking at the name, you know that the owner of the restaurant is not only rich, but also has a deep background – the name of Wang X Building is very common, but you dare to use the word “天” on the signboard without fear of being taboo , of course, someone guarantees it.

    For colleagues on a street, Gu Yin must find someone to find out who the opponent is.

    But things went better than Gu Yin thought, because Gu Ye was free that day, he came over and watched Feng Tao of Lu Guogong’s mansion come out of Wangtian Tower on the street of.

    Although the two have only met once, but the scene at that time was special, Gu Ye still remembers it deeply, and recognized him at a glance.

    There is no need to check later.

    There used to be two restaurants on the same street. Someone bought them and built them. It was normal, Gu Yin didn’t think much about it. Now that I know that the restaurant was bought by the Duke of Lu, who has a long history of grievances with his own family, the fool also knows that it is preparing to fight with his own family!

    Gu Ye blamed himself: “I knew I wouldn’t let Uncle Lu change the book.”

    Although there were disagreements at the front of the two, but they didn’t meet recently, Gu Ye thought about it, guessing that it was mostly his own playbook.

    It was the first time he wrote a story, and for his own sake, he didn’t want to write the queen, whom the family said was a good person, as a bad person, so he made a concubine instead.

    But there is no real insinuation of Feng Guifei, but the original bad queen’s character was changed to a bad imperial concubine.

      , and then let the Merry Emperor block the knife for the pretty widow, and then the true love between the two broke out in adversity, ushering in the reunion ending of the last life.

    There are action scenes and emotional scenes like this, thrilling and tear-jerking coexist, and it is difficult not to sell.

    Gu Yin comforted him and said that it was okay, “Freedom to create, your story is originally written as you want, I have read the final book, except that Jiangmen’s background is the same as Feng Guifei. There is nothing similar. But also, her family is angry, and it is her family’s freedom to fight against our family. And you didn’t listen to what your uncle said before, Lu Guogong and your uncle have been at odds for a long time, but without you Playbook, when the news spreads that our family has obtained a boat from His Majesty, will his family be able to live? This kind of thing will happen sooner or later.”

    Although this is to comfort Gu Ye, it is not what Gu Yin said nonsense.

      The face of their family can be seen to be an unreasonable family.

    Afterwards, Gu Yin also used Qin’s boastful words to set up his family, and at this time his family should come back.

    In the final analysis, as long as Wu Qingyi presses Lu Guogong in front of Emperor Zhengyuan for one day, it is impossible for the two families to be at peace with each other. The playbook is just an introduction.

    Seeing that the little guy was not very interested, Gu Yin patted him on the back again, “I used to think that this reopening seemed to be missing something, but I just remembered that it was missing the arena. What about your opponent! Only progress can be made in competition, doesn’t Ono believe that mother can handle it well?”

    Gu Ye laughed, “Of course I believe in mother!”

    After the mother and son finished speaking, Mrs. Wen Er led people over.

    After Mrs. Wen Er arrived in the capital, she had no friends, and she did not have errands like Mr. Wen Er did, so she was about to fall ill.

    Fortunately, in October, Shiweitian opened, not far from Wen’s house. She came here to sit and talk to Gu Yin, which was considered a place for recreation.

      sit.

    “I haven’t seen Xiao Ye for a long time, and he has grown a lot taller than in September.” The two have gotten along very well now, and Mrs. Wen Er came up and took Gu Yin’s Hand, and said apologetically: “My husband did something really indignant about the casino last time.”

    Gu Yin patted her hand and said, “It’s all in the past, you’ve apologized several times, and the old man also brought Second Uncle Wen to the door to apologize, let’s not mention it. .”

    Mrs. Wen Er said “hey”, took her hand and rubbed it again and again.

    In fact, it’s not just her, her recent friends are also a group of rich wives, and Gu Yin also has a good time.

    Sometimes Gu Yin still thinks in private that the time-travel heroines in this literary work seem to have many admirers. If it was earlier, it seems that almost all men would bow down under the pomegranate skirt of the time-travelling woman.

    She doesn’t have such a good relationship with the opposite sex, and her skill point seems to be on the relationship between elders and women.

    Mrs. Wen Er and others don’t like hot pot and barbecue very much, not because they don’t taste good, but because they eat too much, they get hot, and they are prone to acne on their faces, which greatly affects their outlook.

    And the hot pot and barbecue taste great, although Shiweitian will come with a sachet to remove the taste, which can cover the taste.

    But for women like them who are very sensitive to smells, it is very troublesome to change clothes and bathe every time they go back after eating to completely remove the smell.

    They don’t stay on the noisy first and second floor, they prefer to go to the third floor which has not been renovated.

    Gu Yin only had a few sets of tables and chairs set up on the third floor. They are all shabby for their own restaurants.

    On this day, Gu Yin asked people to bring their favorite scented tea and snacks, and asked them: “Lady, help me out with ideas, it’s not a problem that the third floor has not been repaired. I made a little money in the front, so I thought about repairing this place and making it a light snack with desserts and drinks, what do you guys think?”

    Mrs. Wen and the others naturally said yes, a young woman with a round face said: “Miss Gu, don’t laugh at me, I came here when the emperor praised your family for good food. In fact, every time I come here, I feel that the third floor is empty. It’s just that the things in your house are really good, especially to my taste. That’s why I come here every day after listening to the play… If this can be repaired, I can get the “light” you said. Let’s eat’, we can stay for a while, and I can recommend this place to other friends.”

    Putting aside the good business on the first and second floors, Gu Yin may not have been so concerned.

    Now she knows that Wangtianlou is for her own family, she is full of energy, and immediately said: “Then I will find someone to do this tomorrow, and strive to get it before the year. Come out of such a place, and then I will post a post to you.”

    Everyone gave Gu Yin an idea together. After a while, Gu Yin went downstairs to the back kitchen and gave everyone a salad.

    Gu Yin went back to draw in the evening.

    The hard decoration on the third floor is better than that on the first and second floors, but the main business is for women, so the soft decoration must be more thoughtful.

    Gu Yin is not going to want the boxy Eight Immortals table on the first and second floors, first design a few garden tables, and then get some fabric sofas and soft chairs.

    There is no such thing as a sofa, but in the end, this thing is not complicated, it is a low and wide wooden chair, and then put a cotton seat cushion on it, and then put a whole set of fabric cotton cushions, other Put a few fluffy pillows in the place for waist and knee support.

    The steps are not complicated, the only fly in the ointment is that cotton is not as stable as sponge, and it is easy to deform.

    This sofa needs to be changed after sitting for a while.

    The plates, cups, tableware, and even chopsticks and spoons used by the female guests were redesigned by Gu Yin, and Wu An took charge and drew various patterns.

    Manager Zhou is responsible for the hard decoration, and Gu Yin supervises the soft decoration.

    Because of the abundance of money, I prepared everything in less than half a month.

    On the third floor, Gu Yin did not design a wing room, but a large room with a bar in the middle, a small double table outside the bar, and a large table and a large table near the window. The bar-shaped sofa is separated by a screen, and it has its own small world.

    The sofa, table and chairs at the back were all delivered. Gu Yin inspected it again before the opening, and always felt that something was missing.

    …

    In the evening, Wu Qing decided to pay, and went to ask for safety to Wang Shi and Wu Zhong, and went to Gu Yin’s yard to look for her.

    Gu Yin is sitting in front of the desk, holding a charcoal pen in one hand and resting her cheek in the other, staring at the floor plan on the third floor in a daze.

    What is missing?

    She thought so deeply that she didn’t even notice that the servant at the door gave Wu Qingyi a greeting.

    It wasn’t until Wu Qingyi walked to her desk, and the drawing in front of her cast a dark shadow, Gu Yin raised her head.

    “Why didn’t you call me?” She put a charcoal pen and let someone come in to bring hot tea.

    She took a bath first when she got home, and put on a home-made grass-green robe. Her hair was not in a bun as usual, but it was loosely braided and fell on one shoulder. It looked like She was a few years younger than usual, and she became more and more petite.

    I just saw her holding a pen on her cheeks, wrinkling her face, like a poor student worried about her husband’s homework.

    Wu Qingyi couldn’t help laughing when she saw it, why would she bother her?

    He smiled disapprovingly, “Seeing that you are fascinated by things, I don’t want to disturb you.”

    Gu Yin moved her neck and wondered: “I always feel like something is missing, and I can’t remember it for a while. It will open in two days, and I’m afraid that it will not be done by then. “

    Wu Qingyi looked at her with a smile, “When we Mrs. Gu still can’t make up your mind? I thought you had everything in your hands.”

    She gave him a sideways look, “Are you kidding me?”

      .

    Wu Qingyi waved her hands again and again in “fear”, saying how dare I, and then said: “Who in this house dares to say that you are not good, and we mustn’t let my mother drive out?”

    Wang is now firmly in the rear, taking care of the household affairs.

    Before the family discussed that a group of servants should be released before the year, Wang is busy with this.

    Recently, Gu Yin has been busy with decorating, she is busier than ever, and she will not be home until it gets dark.

    Wu Qingyi and Gu Ye took care of the boat trip, and they had to go out of town even if they paid, and they didn’t have time to pick her up.

    She saw that Gu Yin and Wu Qingyi were no longer going in and out together, thinking that she had seen some mystery, and went to Wang Shi to apply eye drops, saying that his wife was busy outside every day, and she showed her face and did not say anything. I don’t take care of the housework myself, let alone care about the daily life of the uncle and say goodbye to the father-in-law and mother-in-law. He also said that the old lady is also old, her energy is limited, and her body is precious. How can she handle this? Or let the slaves share some with you.

    Gu Yin and the others are not used to having strangers staying in the house. When they are talking on a daily basis, they are asked to retreat outside the house, and they only call people in when they need to do something. That old woman just wanted to take the opportunity to decentralize power, how did she know that Wang Shi and Gu Yin were locked behind closed doors, and their relationship was as close as a mother and daughter?

    Seeing that Gu Yin is so busy, Wang only feels distressed, can she hear this?

    She listened patiently to what the other party said, and pretended to agree: “It’s really troublesome for me to take care of the huge mansion by myself recently. But can you do it alone? Can’t you ask others to help? “

    The old woman despised Wang Shi in her heart, and she really thought that the mud legs on her legs had not been washed with mud. The slaves are not in the house for a day or two, and there are many daughters, sons, and many helpers. Everyone is committed to helping you with all the trivial matters at home, and you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”

    This is in line with Wang’s wishes, and now let the old woman go to point out a group of people who are willing to help the housekeeper.

    After a long time, the old woman brought twenty or thirty people to the Wang family.

    They thought they could be promoted, and all of them had smiles on their faces, waiting for Wang to see them before assigning them positions.

    Wang didn’t want to “kill” good people by mistake, and chatted with them, listening to what they said, they all despised Gu Yin’s disregard for the family now.

    These people have bad hearts and want to take advantage of the “mismatch” of their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Going out of the house also saved a fortune in settling down.

    Speaking of this, Gu Yin couldn’t even pretend to be fierce, she smiled and raised her hand to hit him, “It was those people who provoked the first, mother took this opportunity to clear the house, how did you come to you? In my mouth, it seems that I am the one who instigated the mother to deal with the next person?”

    Wu Qingyi deliberately slowed down and pretended to dodge, but she didn’t dodge, let her fist hit her chest, and hurriedly apologized: “Madam, forgive me, I don’t dare to talk anymore. !”

    This kind of remark should make Gu Ye, who has always been obedient, not laugh much.

    “It’s time for outsiders to see what you look like in private!”

    Wu Qing raised her eyebrows unconcernedly, “Why show it to outsiders? I only show it to people inside.”

    Wu Qingyi looked at her, her throat moved slightly.

    That cup of tea was the one he drank just now.

    Drinking hot tea, Gu Yin touched her face and found that the temperature had dropped, so she asked again, “Do you have something to tell me?”

    Before, both of them were busy with each other. Unless they were looking for each other for urgent matters, they would not disturb each other. They met each other during dinner in the main courtyard.

    Speaking of this, Wu Qingyi restrained the smile on his lips and sat opposite him, “There is indeed something.”

    The end of the year is approaching, and Emperor Zhengyuan naturally wants to reward his ministers again.

    To put it more popularly, it is to send officials to send money to women.

    There are no officials to be promoted in the British government, and they have acquired a whole boat shop.

    Emperor Zheng Yuan was also worried about what to give.

    When Wu Qingyi came here, the image of his wife and slave has been deeply rooted in Emperor Zhengyuan’s heart. Once Emperor Zhengyuan asked Gu Ye and asked if your mother is very fierce?

    Don’t look at Gu Ye’s usual friendship with his brothers, when he talks about his mother, he has to be anxious, and the sentence “Your mother is fierce” came to his mouth, and he swallowed it bluntly, only said: “I Mother is the most gentle, she speaks softly, and she never scolds people, and she is not anxious. Uncle, don’t say that she is not good, I can’t listen to this. “

    Seeing the little guy who was always smiling all of a sudden suddenly turned his face, Emperor Zhengyuan stopped gossiping.

    But no matter what he said, he could see Gu Yin’s status in the British government. If she sent a woman to this house, she was not happy, so Wu Qingyi and Gu Ye would definitely be unhappy. Don’t go back and give gifts and hatred.

    Wu Qingyi said and looked at Gu Yin’s expression, “I have already rejected Your Majesty. Others love guessing, guessing is fine. There is no reason to disturb our family’s life because of other people’s guessing.”

    To his surprise, Gu Yin was not unhappy, but her eyes lit up, grabbed his arm and asked, “What kind of woman?”

    Wu Qingyi’s eyes fell on the back of her fair hand, and she suddenly said, “I’m a good at musical instruments and singing and dancing. But you know I’m rough, I don’t like those.”

    Gu Yin shook her arm and said, “You don’t like it, I like it!”

    The original said that she still felt the shortcomings, the lack of music.

    The third floor can be made into a dessert light snack for women’s parties.

    Women don’t like too much noise when they get together, but as a large room, speaking always lacks a little privacy, but some music and dance, whether it is to add fun, relax, or cover up The private words that everyone whispered are very good.

    Who says men like those? Women are the ones who appreciate women best!

    The thought of having a beautiful young lady coming to her light snack bar to play the piano and pipa, and dance with her waist soft, made Gu Yin feel itchy with excitement.

    She looked at Wu Qingyi expectantly, and she almost said, “I like it, I want it, please.”

    Although Wu Qingyi was puzzled by her reaction, the second monk, but she looked really cute. If it wasn’t for the relationship, he would like to hold her in his arms and rub it. .

    He moved his eyes and coughed lightly, his voice slightly hoarse: “Okay, I’ll go and talk to Your Majesty.”

    Gu Yin nodded happily, but did not forget to tell him: “Then you have to make it clear to others that coming to our house is for work, not that kind of meaning.”

    Although she felt that regaining her freedom and performing musical instruments and dances for girls was not a disgrace to her skills. But I’m not sure if some people want to pursue that kind of future and have to stand in the way of others.
