Chapter 149 Jiaojiao is back
The next morning, Old Master Jiang and Li He'an were about to leave.
Jiang Ruonan held Jiang Weinan's arm and didn't want to leave.
"Grandpa, can I stay at my cousin's place for a while? And then go back after a while?"
Jiang Caifeng looked at him and frowned slightly: "You have to be sensible and go back to study business well."
Jiang Ruonan was not happy and said with a flat mouth: "We both have the surname Jiang, so why can my cousin eat, drink and have fun all day long, while I have to look at account books all day long."
Then he pulled Li Hean and said, "Second Uncle, please talk to Grandpa and let me stay here for a while!"
Li Hean felt dizzy from being shaken by him.
"Stop, stop, stop! If you keep shaking, your second uncle will be gone!"
Jiang Ruonan then stopped and stared at Li Hean with her big, bright eyes.
Li Hean looked at it and said to Jiang Caifeng, "Dad, why don't you let Ruonan stay here for a while? With his niece-in-law around, he can learn something."
Jiang Caifeng thought about it and finally nodded and agreed.
Jiang Ruonan hurriedly took off his bag.
"Thank you, Grandpa, and thank you, Uncle."
Jiang Caifeng looked at him and said, "Don't cause trouble for your cousin and his wife. When you have time, learn more about business from your cousin's wife."
Jiang Ruonan immediately nodded and promised, almost swearing an oath.
Jiang Caifeng said to Xie Jiaojiao: "Ruonan, I'm sorry to bother you. If he does anything wrong, please help me, an old man, to urge him on!"
Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "Don't worry, Grandpa."
Jiang Caifeng nodded slightly, and seeing that it was getting late, he hurried on the road.
Before leaving, he pulled Jiang Weinan aside and said, "Don't just eat, drink and have fun all day long. You have married your wife now, and you should love your wife. The more you understand her, the more relaxed she will be, understand?"
"Grandson knows, don't worry, grandpa. Since she married me, I will naturally not tire her."
"You are sensible if you can say that."
With that said, he got on the carriage.
Xie Jiaojiao and the others said to the carriage, "Have a safe journey!"
Li Hean turned around and said, "Don't worry, I'm here!"
The carriage left after saying this.
As soon as they left, Xie Jiaojiao went back into the house to pack her things.
"Let's go back to the village too!"
"So soon? How about tomorrow?"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at Jiang Weinan: "Today, there are still many things waiting for me at home, but before I go back, you have to accompany me to a place first."
"Where to go?"
"Accompany me to the county town to buy some slaves."
When Jiang Weinan heard that she wanted to buy a servant, he immediately said, "Why do you need to buy a servant? We have plenty at home. I can find you whatever you want."
Xie Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "I want someone who can farm and is quick and hardworking."
"It's a small matter. Just wait. I'll ask Steward Wang to arrange it now."
Having said that, Jiang Weinan went out.
Not long after, Manager Wang brought a group of people to Xie Jiaojiao.
"Young Madam, this was selected according to your request."
Xie Jiaojiao saw three girls and four boys.
Everyone was dressed simply, which was somewhat different from the clothes worn by the people in the mansion.
"Madam, these people were selected from our family's farm. They are all capable and good at work."
Xie Jiaojiao nodded, and knew it after just one look at his appearance.
Jiang Weinan stood behind Xie Jiaojiao and said, "Tell us what you are good at, so that your young lady can choose."
Several people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
Xie Jiaojiao waved her hand: "No need, you look like you work in the fields all year round. I don't ask much of you, just be quick and nimble. If you work with me, I won't treat you unfairly. As long as you do a good job, I will still give you a monthly salary."
When they heard this, they immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Madam!"
Thinking about bringing so many people back, we need a place to accommodate them.
Xie Jiaojiao asked Lai Fu to go back and tell Sun Ruhua to clean up the warehouse.
He took Jiang Weinan to the furniture store in town, bought a few beds, and asked the boss to deliver them.
Then he went to the garment shop and bought a few cotton quilts of average quality. He asked Lai Fu to run back and deliver them.
Because of the shopping, he stayed up all night, and early the next morning, he took the two brothers Jiang Weinan and Jiang Ruonan back to the village.
Jiang Ruonan was in the car and asked Jiang Weinan anxiously, "Cousin, do you really want to go back to live with your cousin's wife in their village?"
Jiang Weinan nodded: "Why? You don't want to go? If you don't want to go, you can just stay in town. We will be back in town every few days anyway."
When he said this, Jiang Ruonan immediately shook his head like a rattle: "Grandpa asked me to learn how to do business from my cousin's wife! I'll go wherever you go!"
Xie Jiaojiao was concentrating on reading the account book in the car.
Yesterday, Manager Wang brought a whole box of shop and land deed account books from the past two years that were included in Jiang Weinan’s mother’s dowry.
Xie Jiaojiao was overwhelmed by the sight!
The most important thing is that she couldn't recognize many of the words in the account book, and she kept asking Jiang Weinan what the words were called while she was reading them!
Jiang Weinan was surprised at first that Xie Jiaojiao could actually read. When he saw that she couldn't recognize all the characters, he suddenly felt that he was useful!
I spent the whole night yesterday teaching Xie Jiaojiao to read, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to understand the account book now!
A ray of morning sunlight shone through the car window, shining on Xie Jiaojiao's face. Xie Jiaojiao frowned slightly.
Jiang Weinan leaned forward slightly to block the incoming sunlight for her.
Xie Jiaojiao raised her head and glanced at him.
Jiang Weinan turned his eyes and looked away.
Xie Jiaojiao smiled slightly and continued to look at her account book. When she didn't understand something, she drew a line on it with the charcoal she made.
After reading a few pages, we arrived at the village.
As soon as Xie Jiaojiao returned to the village, many people surrounded her.
Everyone watched Xie Jiaojiao get off the carriage.
Is this still Xie Jiaojiao who left their village?
Xie Jiaojiao was seen dressed in silk and satin, looking like a noble lady in the city, completely different from before!
Sun Ruhua had already arrived outside the door to greet them.
"I have done everything you asked me to do!"
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, mother."
"where!"
Tian Hu also came out at this time, and Xie Jiaojiao asked him to take the servant to the warehouse.
Tian Hu did as he was told immediately.
Just as they were about to enter the house, Wang Qiushi rushed out from the crowd: "Jiaojiao is back!"
