"Husband, how dare I, a concubine, compare myself to my original wife?" Cuiliu said angrily, but in Zhu Yuanji's ears, it was because she was jealous.

What a man likes most is for a woman to be jealous of him, and Zhu Yuanji especially enjoys two women competing for him now.

"In my heart, you are the most important. When I pass the exam, I will help you become an equal wife. But you have to give me a son first, otherwise my parents will definitely not agree." Zhu Yuanji coaxed Cuiliu, as for the child

If you give birth to a child, the Zhu family will naturally take care of it.

No matter how many children you have, it doesn't matter.

Just like he didn't like Pei Chuntao at first, but he didn't delay consummating the marriage with her and having a baby.

"Okay, then I will wait for you, my husband, to become a master in high school." Cuiliu smiled faintly. She just wanted to get a boy. As long as Zhu Yuanji can get it, she can use some tricks.

Just because she can't give birth doesn't mean she can't buy one.

"Then let's go back to the village. We won't be allowed to live in our parents' house, so we will rent a house to live in. You will not be wronged." Zhu Yuanji took out all Pei Chuntao's dowry and sold it.

Any copying of books is all fake. Why should he do such a lowly job if he is a talented scholar?

Cuiliu nodded, and she had to go back to the village where she was pointed out. This was all secondary. The most important thing was that the countryside was too poor, with poor food and poor clothing.

But for the sake of the future, we must endure it.

As for Zhu Yuanji stealing Pei Chuntao's dowry and selling it, what does this have to do with her?

On the other side, the grandma of the Zhu family couldn't help but sigh when facing Dean Liu, "It's a joke for you. I don't know how I raised my son like this."

"Grandma Zhu, this is not your fault. Your second son and third son are both very good. Some people are just blinded by the wealth in this world and go astray. Only when they lose everything can they wake up. I

I have seen too many people like this, and they have all adapted." Dean Liu's words made the grandma of the Zhu family feel relieved.

It turns out that they are not the ones in this situation, so that’s good!

Zhu Qianqian took her grandma's hand and said, "Grandma, look at me. I grew up with you and learned your skills, so I am loved by so many people."

"Yes, we are so obedient and loved by so many people that we don't care about him. Let's go to see the shop. The old woman brought money today and paid three months' rent directly to the dean." The grandma of the Zhu family made up her mind and rented the shop.

Focus on making money.

She didn't want to get sick from being angry with the useless traitor, that would be the real loss.

Dean Liu knew that the grandma of the Zhu family had a strong personality, so he would just keep the money. If he didn't accept it, he would be looking down on the Zhu family, which was not in line with his original intention.

"I have nothing to do now. I will take you to have a look. Liu Xin and Liu Yi, you go ahead and open the shop to get some air." He wanted to tell the surrounding shops that he was covering the Zhu family.

This kindness made the grandma of the Zhu family even more grateful. She made up her mind to make a few plasters for Dean Liu and let him try it. If it worked, she would continue. If it didn't work, just use it.

Lu Zhiming and Pan Yaozong also accompanied him throughout the whole process. Their identities are not a secret in the academy.

When they accompanied the Zhu family to the shop, they attracted the attention of many nearby shops.

"Hello, Dean Liu!"

"Dean Liu, has your shop changed its staff?"

Facing everyone's active greetings, Dean Liu responded with a smile, "Hello everyone, these are my friends. They will open a shop here in the future. Please take care of them."

"Absolutely! Dean Liu, you are so polite."

"If you need help, ma'am, just say hello."

Every shopkeeper showed their good intentions, and after the greetings were almost complete, everyone walked into the shop.

Now the grandma of the Zhu family felt embarrassed. She thought it was a small shop at first, but now that she looks at it, it is probably more than ten taels a month.

There are two rooms with five or six tables already set up. It is close to the academy and can be used for business at noon and evening.

"Grandpa Dean, can we use these tables and chairs directly?" Zhu Qianqian tilted her head. This place must have been a food shop before.

Why didn't you do it all of a sudden?

"Of course! The business here used to be good, so I won't do it now because the shopkeeper's hometown has something to do. There are pots and pans in the back. If you don't mind, just use them. If you don't use them, I'll trouble you to throw them away or use them as firewood.

" Dean Liu looked at the little girl's obvious doubts and explained with a smile.

This excuse, he asked the former shopkeeper to tell everyone this.

"How can such a good thing be thrown away, let alone burned? My old man is a carpenter, and my old woman can still tell the difference between good and bad. Thank you, dean, for thinking about us. If you look at our performance in the future, we will not let you down." Zhu Jia'a

How dare you throw away these good things?

People who live at home are reluctant to throw away even a needle or piece of cloth.

"Then you guys pack up. I'll go back to the academy first. If anything happens, I'll go directly to me. If you can't find me, I'll go find these two." Dean Liu pointed to Lu Zhiming and Pan Yaozong.

"Yes, yes, our family owns a restaurant. I'll come and take a look at it for sister Qianqian." Lu Zhiming immediately agreed.

"Dean, it would be really nice if you wrote a plaque here." Pan Yaozong pointed at the door and winked at sister Qianqian.

The name of the dean is worth a lot of money, and it looks high-end when it is hung up.

"You're right, little friend Qianqian, please think of a name first, and then tell me after you think about it." Dean Liu placed the person next to him, extremely happy, it's just a plaque, so what's the difficulty?

The happy old man obviously didn't think about how many people in Qing'an Mansion have wanted to beg his calligraphy treasures in recent years.

"Okay, goodbye, Grandpa Dean." Zhu Qianqian waved her chubby little hands to Dean Liu, with excitement on her face.

Their family finally had a shop, and it was such a big shop.

"Mr. Pan, thank you for your help in building a house. This is the cost." Grandma of the Zhu family calculated according to the market price.

A large blue-brick house costs one tael, and their family built a total of six houses for 60 taels, plus three side houses and a courtyard wall for 20 taels.

She took out ninety taels. After all, in that case, it was appropriate to give ten more taels.

Pan Yaozong waved his hands awkwardly, "Grandma Zhu, I can't ask for this money. My father specifically asked me to do so. Moreover, Sister Qianqian's poem made Zhiming and I become celebrities in front of the dean. No amount of money can buy this.

"

He and Lu Zhiming are both people who take advantage of each other, so how can they ask for this money again?

"That won't work. One yard will equal one yard. If you don't accept the money, we won't dare to live in that house." The grandma of the Zhu family insisted on giving it. She couldn't take such a huge advantage.

In the eyes of the Pan family, this ninety taels of silver may not be much, but it is the integrity of their family.

If their family had no money, they would not have asked Pan's family to help build the house. From the beginning, she had no intention of defaulting on the debt or continuing to owe money.
