Chapter 660: The wealthy Zhang family

Xue Dongjia nodded: "Yes, that's why the shopkeeper Han's last name is Han."

Qin Xiaomi: "And now the Song family's wife is the eldest daughter-in-law of the main house, and only the daughter-in-law of Old Madam Song is the daughter of the Zhang family, the aunt of Imperial Concubine Yuede... I don't know how many layers of this have been revealed. The man surnamed Han dares to use the title of Imperial Concubine to pressure others. He is not smart enough, and he deserves this disaster."

Xue Dongjia said: "If he had a good brain, he wouldn't have been assigned to work in this remote area."

but……

"It happened to your family. If it was any other family, he would have used the name of the host's relative to pressure others long ago."

The slaves of aristocratic families almost always bully merchants without backing in this way.

At the worst time, the daughters of local merchants had to become concubines of aristocratic slaves because of a word from the aristocratic slaves.

Don't want to be it?

The master of the aristocratic slave is an official in the capital. As long as he files a complaint or takes the visiting card given by the master to the government office, something bad will happen to your shop, and your family will be ruined and your owner will be sent to jail!

In order to protect the family business, he had no choice but to let his daughter become a slave.

You said slaves can't marry good people?

Oh, then go and file a complaint with the emperor.

Before you even reached the capital, you were killed by bandits.

That's why Mr. Qu Si's family became half-slaves of aristocratic families.

Thinking of Fourth Master Qu, Master Xue couldn't help but praise himself: "I am really amazing. I fought my way out of this bloody situation. Now I am your Majesty's man. There is even a separate page in the family tree dedicated to my achievements."

"I'm not kidding. After the new dye was put into operation, the elders of our Xue family really discussed opening an ancestral hall and wanted to open a separate page in the family tree for me to record this achievement."

So, the Qin family was his benefactor. A new dye allowed him to break free from the shackles of the powerful aristocratic families and soar to the sky.

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin agreed enthusiastically: "Mr. Xue is very capable and has made great achievements for the family. This achievement should be recorded in the family tree for future generations to admire."

After hearing this, Xue Dongjia smiled until his teeth were exposed, and said, "So the Qin family doesn't have to worry about the revenge of Han Daguangui. He doesn't have the chance anymore."

He is already destined to die.

"And the Zhang family is at a critical moment now. We will not let our relatives ruin our plans. We will definitely restrain our relatives and will not allow them to stand up for the slaves."

To retaliate against a meritorious family because of a servant is a sign of mental illness.

After hearing this, Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin felt relieved, but sighed: "It's not good to make a contribution, it always attracts some noble families, if we don't handle it well, there will be endless troubles."

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin now feel like "a fat pig being stared at by a butcher with a knife every day."

Xue Dongjia smiled and said, "Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin, don't worry. After the spies finish their crimes, the nobles will no longer pay attention to us."

Qin Xiaomi agreed: "Mr. Xue is right. There are so many things going on in the world. How can the nobles have the time to care about our family? Grandpa and grandma should just live their lives in peace."

Oh, you are wrong about this.

Zhang Songyu really has sent people to keep an eye on you.

After Mr. Xue finished talking about Manager Han, he said goodbye and left without staying any longer.

However, after Old Lady Guan learned about this, she was afraid that the Qin family would be frightened by the title of the Imperial Concubine, so she sent Nanny Chen.

Nanny Chen: "The old lady said to let the old lady in law rest assured, she still has one or two friends alive. If the shopkeeper Han dares to use the imperial concubine to oppress the Qin family, the criminal law of the Great Wei will not let the shopkeeper Han go."

Grandma Qin felt warm in her heart and said hurriedly, "This matter has caused a stir and even alarmed the old lady. Tell her not to worry. The Xue family has already said that the Han family manager will not cause any trouble. We can just live our lives as usual."

Nanny Chen smiled and said, "The old lady said that the Qin and Guan families are relatives. After hearing the news, I had to come and take a look."

The eldest master finally managed to arrange a marriage, but the old lady was afraid that something might happen to his in-laws, which would make the eldest master completely give up the idea of ​​getting married and having children.

So the old lady said that her grandson's father-in-law's house must be well protected and no mistakes can be made.

After seeing that the Qin family was really fine, Nanny Chen said goodbye and left with peace of mind.

Qin Xiaomi was curious about the affairs of the Song and Zhang families, so she took the initiative to get up and see them off.

After leaving the Qin family's shop, Qin Xiaomi took Nanny Chen to the shop where the maid lived and asked about the situation of the Zhang and Song families.

Nanny Chen had memorized the genealogy of the aristocratic family, so she could answer, "The Song family rose to prominence in the previous dynasty because of their meritorious service to the emperor. So far, they have only prospered during the Jin and Wei dynasties, so their foundation is average. Currently, there are only about a hundred children serving as officials in the court, and only two of them are third-rank officials."

That’s all?

Fortunately, I asked this behind grandma's back, otherwise she would have been worried if she heard this.

"The truly powerful family is the Zhang family... The Zhang family is known as the Papermaking Zhangs. Their ancestors made their fortune by making paper and went down in history. They were the descendants of Yong, Jin, and Wei, and have prospered for a thousand years. They are truly a family of wealth and power."

"It declined somewhat during the reign of Emperor Wuye of Wei, but there are still nearly a thousand young men serving as officials. Now that there is a noble concubine, I'm afraid it will prosper again."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He is about to have great power in the government.

"The Zhang family has a very good reputation for papermaking. They have sponsored poor students throughout the generations. Even during the reign of Emperor Ning Kang, no bad deeds were reported, so there is no need for the young master to be afraid."

"The Zhang family has come this far because they are strategic and farsighted. They will not easily make enemies with others. If they have any grudges with others, they will do their best to resolve them."

Qin Xiaomi nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mammy, I'm not scared, I'm just curious, so I'm asking."

She added, "Mammy is right. The Zhang family is Baoyu. Baoyu will definitely respect himself and will not even bother to pay attention to us country folk."

Nanny Chen smiled and waited until Qin Xiaomi finished asking questions before returning to the Guan family and reporting to Old Madam Guan.

Madam Guan felt relieved after hearing this: "It's good that you weren't scared."

He also said of the noble families: "They are becoming more and more outrageous. If they don't take care of these slaves sent out, they will suffer the consequences one day."

……

Guan Shuli also heard about the Qin family's affairs. After leaving the yamen, he went to the Qin family. Seeing that the Qin family was safe and not frightened at all, he returned home with peace of mind.

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were very satisfied with the Guan family because of this. They whispered to each other at night: "Our youngest daughter is lucky. Although she married late, she met a good man."

"Yes," Grandpa Qin responded with a smile. Because the Guan family cared about his family, the fatigue of collecting grain taxes was reduced a lot.

But the next day, something bad happened in the village.

At dawn, Huang Guijia brought several members of the Huang family to Xinda Street and knocked on the door, telling them what Huang Duogui and his wife had done.

"Last night around midnight, Huang Duogui and his wife brought the old widower into the village, wanting to... Fortunately, the two girls were alert and realized that their behavior during the day was not right, so they did not dare to sleep and escaped."

"After being caught by the villagers, Huang Duogui and his wife said that the old widower was the second daughter's fiancé, and that the two were already engaged, and that the old widower was staying at their home temporarily."

"How could my parents possibly believe them? They dragged their son out and beat him. They were afraid that their son would be disabled, so they confessed."

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were stunned: "They are harming their own daughter like this... But why? The second daughter is the one who can help the family with chores, why do they want to sell her at such a low price? Did the old widower pay a lot of money?"

Huang Xiaosi and his wife who came with him said, "How can that be possible? Even if he was really rich, he wouldn't be a widower for so many years."
