A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 115 News from Bofeng County

Yang Lijun answered nonchalantly while chewing on some pork ribs: "I will live in the village when it is completed. It is not far to go to the town by horse carriage anyway."

"There's not much to do at the embroidery shop. I plan to hire a manager, or promote one of the employees, and let them take charge."

“You don’t have to do everything yourself.”

"That's the truth."

After Wan Wenfang was ten years old, she followed her mother to learn housekeeping, and her mother shared the same philosophy.

She thought that this Mrs. Yu probably came from a wealthy family.

Generally, people from small families like to hold power tightly, do everything themselves, and never let others do anything. Large families have many things to do, so they must promote capable servants to assist in management and work. Otherwise, they will work themselves to death and still not be able to finish the work, nor do they do it well.

While Wan Wenfang, Yang Lijun and others were having a great time, Tang Qian's wife Mu Ziqi came to Tang Jide's house.

When Wan Wenfang first came to Linhai Town, she didn't know anyone. Tang Qian's wife often came to see her and shared the local customs and culture with her, which helped to relieve her boredom.

Tang Lei likes Mu Ziqi very much. As soon as he sees her, he calls her "Second Aunt", which makes her very happy when her children are not around.

Tang Qian and Mu Ziqi's son Tang Yuhe is ten years old and is currently studying at Qingfeng College in Bofeng County. Mu Ziqi often goes there to stay with his son for a while, but he spends most of his time in Linhai Town.

Tang Qian didn't want his son to be raised too dependent on his mother, so he let him study away from home alone, with servants, book boys, and nannies taking care of his daily life. He also allowed Mu Ziqi to accompany him from time to time, but in moderation.

"Second Madam." The gatekeeper greeted her when he saw her coming over: "Are you looking for our Madam?"

"Yes."

Mu Ziqi usually comes directly here, and Wan Wenfang rarely goes out.

"I'm so sorry, our lady hasn't come back yet."

"Oh? She went out today?"

"Yes. I heard from the maidservant beside the Madam that the Madam and the Young Master followed the two Madams to the Huang Family Canteen, and took the Young Master with them. They said they would have lunch there at noon and would be back later."

"so......"

Mu Ziqi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back first. If she comes back, tell her and I'll come back tomorrow."

"Okay, walk slowly."

Mu Ziqi left with her maid.

The two families lived not far from each other, so she did not take a carriage.

Speaking of the Huang family canteen, Mu Ziqi knew about it.

When Tang Qian was at home, he would tell her about some business matters. In the past six months, the most talked about thing was a family surnamed Huang who made new food, fermented bean curd and bread.

The last time the Huang family bakery opened, Tang Qian bought a lot of bread for her to try. She liked every kind, so she often asked the servants to buy some.

Originally, she had thought of buying some for her son to take to Bofeng County, but Tang Qian was very busy during this period, and she had to help manage household affairs and often help him with accounting, so she had not had the chance to bring them to the child.

Unexpectedly, she soon got the chance.

When Yang Lijun and others had almost finished eating, Old Wang came.

"lady."

"what happened?"

"There's news about the shop in Bofeng County. They say it's for sale urgently. What do you think..."

Yang Lijun and Huang Mulin both turned their attention to him.

"Have you explored the bottom?"

"I checked it out, no problem."

"We'll set off early tomorrow morning. Ask the people over there to keep an eye on us so no one gets there first."

"Yes."

Old Wang stepped back.

"Sister, do you want to go play?"

The little guy Tang Lei became interested.

"I guess so." Huang Mulin smiled: "Leilei wants to go?"

"miss you!"

Then he looked at his mother.

Wan Wenfang has a headache because this child is becoming more and more playful.

"No, your father is not here, and you can't cause trouble to others."

There are only her and her son at home, and she doesn’t know how long it will take to get to Bofeng County. She needs others to take care of her and her son on the way. How embarrassing!

"No trouble, Leilei is very well behaved. I believe he won't cause any trouble, Leilei, don't you think so?"

Huang Mulin asked Tang Lei.

"Yeah, Leilei is the best."

The little kid patted his chest and assured.

Everyone laughed again.

"Let's go together." Yang Lijun continued: "Just ride in the same carriage with us tomorrow. Hui Niang, are you going?"

"No, I'll stay at home to take care of the family, you can take Mu Mu with you."

"Mom~I want to go~"

Tang Lei saw that Wan Wenfang didn't say anything, so he threw himself into her arms and acted coquettishly.

"You kid..."

In fact, she also wanted to go.

During these days in Linhai Town, apart from my second sister-in-law, I don’t have many acquaintances to chat with, so life is quite boring.

She had never been to Bofeng County, but she knew about Qingfeng College in Bofeng County. Maybe Tang Lei would be sent there to study in the future.

"Don't worry about it." Yang Lijun made the decision for her: "Meet in front of Huang's Bakery on North Street at 1:00 p.m. tomorrow. It's settled."

"Thank you, Aunt Yang."

Tang Lei is such a villain.

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and then Wan Wenfang's maid and coachman came. She thanked Yang Lijun and others, then took her son home.

While in the car, the maid told her that Mu Ziqi had come to see her.

After thinking about it, she asked the driver to go to Tang Qian's house first.

When they arrived at Tang Qian's house, the groom knocked on the door. The servant who opened the door saw that it was Wan Wenfang and the others, and hurriedly passed the message to the housekeeper.

Soon, Mu Ziqi came out.

"Come sit in my yard?"

"No." Wan Wenfang, who was standing next to the carriage, said, "Leilei and I are going to Bofeng County with Sister Yang from the embroidery shop tomorrow. We need to go back and pack up. Children have a lot of stuff."

"You're going to Bofeng County?"

Mu Ziqi was surprised.

"Sister Yang from the Embroidery Shop?"

"She is the owner of the Yang Embroidery Shop in town." Wan Wenfang explained, "We met her at the Huang's bakery. She invited my mother and I to have dinner in the Huang's canteen. I happened to hear from her servants that there was news about the shop she wanted to buy in Bofeng County. She would go there tomorrow."

"Leilei wanted to come along and play, so I shamelessly went with him to see the world."

"so......"

She just wanted to go to Bofeng County.

"What time do you leave tomorrow? Where will we meet?"

"Tomorrow at 1:00 pm, in front of the Huang family bakery."

"That's a good feeling."

She also bought some bread and biscuits for her son!

"What? You want to go too?"

"Yes. The bread from Huang's Bakery is delicious. Now that the weather is a little colder, it can be kept for a few days. I have been wanting to find a chance to buy some for Yuhe."

"I will follow you in my own carriage tomorrow, so that you will not be delayed."

"so......"

If it doesn't delay your trip, it should be fine.

"Then you should get ready too. I'll take Lei Lei back first."

Tang Lei felt sleepy after eating and just fell asleep in the car. This time is always his nap time.

"it is good."

The two sisters-in-law agreed to go home and prepare their luggage for going out tomorrow.
