Chapter 35: 35

Mrs. Wang was sitting at the table in a daze, and only when she heard the movement did return to reality.

“I guessed that you will come over,” Mrs Wang glanced at Gu Yin, “Do you want to persuade me to send Wu’an to study at Mr. Wen’s place?”

Gu Yin sat down next to her, “Fifteen taels a year is indeed not a small amount, but mother also saw the market price of our trial sale this morning. Fifteen taels is not something you can’t earn. And it’s a year-over-year thing to go to school. We still have a few months to prepare.”

Mrs. Wang still didn’t say a word, Gu Yin paused and continued, “And I’m not going to hide it from you, my ambition is not to have such a small stall, but to open a shop, or even a restaurant. Fifteen taels sounds big at the moment, but in the future, you would not be bothered by such a small amount of money.”

“Honey, your ambitions are not small,” Mrs. Wang couldn’t help laughing at first, and then she frowned again.

“Why, you don’t believe me?”

Mrs. Wang shook her head, then sighed, “If Wu’an came out of your stomach, I would have nothing against it! But Wu’an has not, he was born to me, you are just his sister-in-law. ‘Sister-in-law is like a mother’, but I can’t make you work hard to support your brother-in-law to study!”

At first, Gu Yin thought that Mrs. Wang was only worrying about the fifteen taels, but she didn’t expect her to think so much.

“It’s our family, so why do you think so?”

She really regarded Mrs. Wang and Wu’an as her family.

It was Mrs. Wang who was distressed to spend the money, but forced her to drink the medicine on time. It was also Xiao Wu’an who stayed by the bedside, and got up in the middle of the night to give her water and put a wet handkerchief on her forehead.

After suffering a great disaster, she left her hometown and traveled through mountains and rivers. Mrs. Wang never thought of leaving her after recovering from her serious illness.

That life was originally given to her by the mother and son.

Mrs. Wang shook her head, “It’s our family. But Qingyi is gone, and you’re only nineteen. Could it be that you have to be a widow for the rest of your life? You’re going to marry after all. How would a brother-in-law dare to ask you to do such a thing?”

Gu Yin was surprised when she heard that.

Although the folk customs of that dynasty were relatively open at present, women did not need to bind their feet, and remarriage was also very common.

But a mother-in-law like Mrs. Wang who directly told her daughter-in-law to remarry was so enlightened that she was a bit ahead of her time.

She was stunned for a while, and then said, “I don’t want to remarry.”

She really didn’t think so. In her previous life, she had been busy inheriting her grandfather’s mantle since college, and had never been in a relationship in her twenties.

Let alone in this life, just thinking about how to eat and wear warm clothes, where did she have the heart to think about anything else?

“Don’t say childish things. You and Qingyi were just a couple in name…”

Gu Yin was surprised, “You even know that?”

Back then, Mrs. Wang, who was eavesdropping on the wall for half a night, couldn’t help blushing.

“Don’t talk about that. Qingyi told me when he left, so that you don’t have to wait for him. I was also selfish and delayed you for so many years, until I heard the news… But it’s so bad to want to delay your whole life!”

“That’s something in the future.” Gu Yin lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then she said, “Mother might as well think about it this way, although our business relies on my craftsmanship, many things are done by you. Like this morning, if you hadn’t sacrificed your face and pretended to be a villain, my wontons wouldn’t have been sold so fast. The business is something we are doing together, and the money spent on Wu’an’s study is certainly not only made by me. “

Mrs. Wang was about to speak again, but was stopped by Gu Yin, she continued, “And you also know that in this world, being merchants is good, but in fact their status is not high, if there is no support behind them, it is not worth it.”

Mrs. Wang couldn’t refute that. She already knew what happened to the Xu family in the past two days. She used to look at such a beautiful family, and it fell down so quickly.

The Xu family was a family that had been in business for generations, and they were quite well-connected. With an orphan and widows, the situation was even more incomparable.

“If not, this year’s New Year’s Eve is the deadline. If I can earn enough money and send Wu’an to school at the beginning of the year, it can be regarded as me investing in advance.” Gu Yin took Mrs. Wang’s arm and shook it gently, “You agree.”

After a long while, Mrs. Wang finally raised her eyes and raised her voice to call Xiao Wu’an to come in.

“Kowtow to your sister-in-law.” Mrs. Wang looked at her younger son seriously, “You have to remember that in the future, sister-in-law and mother will be the same. If in the future you dare not be filial to your sister-in-law, I will hang you at the door wearing only a trouser belt!”

That was really too serious, Gu Yin hurriedly wanted to stop it, but Mrs. Wang’s attitude was very tough.

Although Xiao Wu’an didn’t quite understand it, he obeyed obediently.

Pulling Gu Yin and accepting Xiao Wu’an’s three bows, Mrs. Wang finally loosened up and her stomach growled twice.

She returned to her usual appearance, leaned to the side and shouted, “I haven’t eaten lunch yet, I’m starving to death. Make two buns and give me a taste first!”
