Twin Brocade

Chapter 442 Intentional Movement
Rather than concealing it, Lu Shiman simply took this opportunity to clarify the matter of Qiao Shijie's study abroad, and also appeared to be frank.

When she said this, all the ladies were moved.The Fang family's momentum is just right, they have gone through some storms, but they have come over steadily, and now they have gained a firm foothold in the court.

Fang Jinshu's reputation, living in the same workshop, they know better than others.Although there are some unpleasant rumors, at least there are rewards from the emperor and empress.

Even better, she is the fourth in the Fang family, not the eldest daughter.Correspondingly, there is no need to treat each other as the eldest daughter-in-law and clan wife, as long as they are legitimate sons.After such a calculation, marrying such a daughter-in-law will surely make a profit without losing money.

All of a sudden, everyone gathered around Si Lansheng asking questions.Some asked Fang Jinshu's age;

Si Lansheng laughed and said: "Our family's book is young, and it is thirteen years old according to the actual age, but it only passed its 12th birthday in the twelfth lunar month of last year. I discussed with the master, as long as her life goes smoothly, she will be better than anything else."

"The son-in-law has a good character and a clean family style, which is the most important thing." She said her request and smiled: "It has been two years since she received a reward from the palace. Praise her again."

This means that their Fang family will not use this as a capital to choose a son-in-law and ask for a husband's family.After hearing her words, everyone's expressions became more eager.

Si Lansheng smiled, raised her face and said proudly: "My family's Shu'er is nothing to worry about. The Jinghe teacher in the nunnery likes her too much, and let her join Guangying Merchant. I am a mother. Yes, but they can't keep up with her."

Those present were all civil servants and female relatives, so the emperor's reward should not be overemphasized, but it should be praised.The reputation of Guangying Commodities is not small, which also let everyone know Fang Jinshu's strength, so they won't underestimate it and say that some young masters from the side branch will come over.Let's set a threshold for Fang Jinshu's marriage first, so as not to waste time talking about it in the future.

"Guangying Merchant Store?" Mrs. Chu had little contact with the women's family at Xiuwenfang, and she came here specially to support her cousin today.Therefore, no one has heard of the connection between Fang Jinshu and Guangying Merchant.

"Really?" Mrs. Wu said, "I know that. Mrs. Han, the in-house shopkeeper of the goods store, often goes to answer Sister Shu. Our Sister Qing and Sister Shu have always been good friends, and they have gained a lot of fame. Fresh stuff."

With that said, everyone nodded.

They all knew something more or less, but the Fang family didn't say it clearly, so they just pretended not to know.Now that Si Lansheng took the initiative to mention it, he also praised Fang Jinshu for his ability.

"Mrs. Fang is really lucky." A wife said enviously, "The sons and daughters raised here are top-notch. The Fang family can make a lot of money from this business alone."

Si Lansheng was waiting for someone to say this, so he replied with a smile: "Guangying Merchandising has nothing to do with our Fang family, it's all earned by Shu'er herself. When she gets married, it's all up to her." It's her dowry."

As soon as these words came out, several wives covered their mouths and took a deep breath. Did the Fang family not take the money seriously?Still really love her daughter.

They don't know the profit of Guangying Goods, but the prefectures in central Beijing are proud of having one or two of these goods.Who let the dealers know the sky, and even Yanqing Palace has the lacquerware they sold?
It's unbelievable that the Fang family can't even beat such a dealer.Speaking of which, the Fang family is not a well-established old Beijing official, they rely on a bastard to manage the business and earn some money to socialize with the officialdom.

Although the idea of ​​making an estate under the name of his own daughter is a bit ugly, Fang Jinshu is the daughter of the Fang family after all, and making contributions to the family is also something that should be done.

Among the people present, there were people who knew about this matter and secretly speculated how much the Fang family had benefited from it.Unexpectedly, Si Lansheng actually said that?
Because they were too surprised, someone couldn't help but ask: "Mrs. Fang, the property earned by Sister Shu also belongs to the Fang family. Regardless of marriage, the current income should go to the public house, right?"

Si Lansheng smiled slightly, and said: "This matter was decided by the master. He said that Shu'er used the reward money from the palace to invest in Guangying Commodities, and this income has nothing to do with the family. "

It turned out that it was Fang Shuyu's decision, not Si Lansheng's love for her daughter.In this way, it was an ironclad matter, and everyone's minds became active at once.

In this way, whichever family marries Fang Jinshu is marrying a small treasury.The wives who had second sons and youngest sons under their knees began to think about it one after another.They don't care about their daughter-in-law's dowry, but their son has such a daughter-in-law to help, life is much easier after all.

In the families of these big families, the resources are concentrated on the eldest son and grandson, and all the prefectures are no exception.The son who is further down, even if the mother is eccentric, has to obey the arrangement of the clan and has no control over it.

They are all civil servants, and it costs a lot of money to socialize with each other in the officialdom.Although each family has its own way of making money, but not much is allocated to the son who is behind.

At this time, they all automatically ignored the bad rumors about Fang Jinshu, and even more tacitly, they would not mention the previous marriage proposal at the Prince's residence.

Mrs. Chu's eyes flickered. The person she married was an admonishing doctor. For the sake of reputation, the Chu family did not live well.Fortunately, there is the Lu family behind her as support, otherwise life would be hard.

There is only Chu Mo's legitimate son under her knees, and what is different from what those wives think is that she is thinking about Chu Mo's marriage.

In terms of family status, the Chu family and the Fang family are all fourth-rank officials; in terms of age, Chu Mo is sixteen and Fang Jinshu is thirteen; She is the second daughter.

Mrs. Chu saw all the people present, thinking about the sons under their knees.After a while, a smile appeared on her face.If the Chu family proposes to marry Fang Jinshu for Chu Mo, the wives and wives present should not be able to compete.

They were either reluctant to use their legitimate sons to marry, or their eldest sons were already married.How can it compare to Chu Mo's match?

What's more, she has 12 confidence in her son in her heart.

It's not that she is boasting, there are not many young men of the same age in the capital who can compete with Chu Mo.Even if they can find out, are they willing to marry a second daughter of the Fang family?

Thinking of this, she glanced at her cousin Lu Shiman, planning to wait for the opportunity to ask her what she meant.Qiao and Fang are friends, and Lu Shiman knows more about Fang Jinshu.The marriage of children is a major event, so be sure to inquire thoroughly.

Since Qiao Tongxuan had promised to Fang Ziquan, it was impossible for Qiao Shijie to consider Fang Jinshu's marriage.The two families are both famous and respectable, so would it be possible to exchange marriages?
