    Chapter 149 Who will be the housekeeper?

    On that day, the congratulations of Mrs. Song and Governor Song and the congratulations of Liangjiang officials caused a stir in Yangcheng. For a long time, the topic of the common people after dinner was still related to this. And Qin Tian, ​​the focal figure of this incident, is the object that the common people talk about. As for those merchants who had doubts about Qin Tian, ​​they completely dispelled their concerns. What is there to worry about with such a big backer as Taifu Song?

    In this short day, Shengshi Tea Shop re-established its position among tea merchants, and the new head Qin Tian also temporarily got everyone's support.

    Afterwards, the eldest wife invited Mrs. Song and Governor Song back to the house, and Qin Tian made a table of good dishes to honor Mr. Song. A bunch of people celebrated, reminisced about the old days, and it was lively for a while. After dinner, Qin Tian accompanies Song Taifu for a walk in the manor. And Zhuang Xinyan knew that Qin Tian and Song Taifu were close, so he didn't follow, giving them space to talk alone.

    Qin Tian led Taifu Song in front, and the maid and Taifu Song's entourage followed far behind.

    Qin Tian said to Mrs. Song, "Uncle Song, thank you. I know that you came here today to make a statement for me. I'm very grateful."

    "Just calling me Uncle Song for you, what if this old man recognizes your nephew's 'daughter'?" Mrs. Song smiled, "This old man has been famous, beautiful, desolate, and desolate in his life. There are a lot of people around you who are flattering, but when you are desolate, you really don’t care about anything in return, and you are the only couple who truly care about this poor old man, apart from the loyal servant of the old man.”

    After speaking, Mrs. Song stopped and looked at Qin Tian with a smile: "Girl, don't think that being my nephew's 'daughter' means everything will be all right. My old bones will not embarrass you except to give some face to the officials here. Besides, it's useless! If you want to secure your position as head of the family and make Shengshi have a better future, you must rely on yourself!"

    "I know, Uncle Song, don't worry, I will not lose your face!" Qin Tian smiled. In fact, there is one point, although Mrs. Song didn't explain it clearly, Qin Tian was very clear.

    At that time, "Tiger Hill" became a famous tribute tea in the world, attracting the covetousness of many officials, gentry and nobles, so that it led to the final tragedy. To get to the bottom of it, it is only because the monks of Huqiu Temple do not have the ability to protect "Huqiu", so they are allowed to be oppressed by the powerful forces. Today, "Biluo 'Chun'" has become famous because of this tea offering to the imperial front. When it can bring huge wealth, who knows if it will become the next "Tiger Hill" and how can their bankers be able to protect it?" Biluo 'spring'"? In the end, it may also be the fate of being robbed.

    But because of Song Taifu's high-profile appearance, all this is different. In the future, no matter who wants to play the idea of ​​"Biluo 'Chun'", they must first consider whether they are qualified to shake the "big tree" standing in front of Qin Tian. Tree". In the world, there are only a handful of people who can truly shake this "big tree"!

    It can be said that unless it is the decree of the current sage, no one should think about "Biluo 'Spring'".

    "Uncle Song, you are kind to Qin Tian. Qin Tian understands in his heart. Qin Tian will never forget it in his life." Qin Tian looked at Mrs. Song and said sincerely.

    "Silly boy, this old man is just reciprocating..."

    Qin Tian was stunned. He really didn't understand when she gave such a big "plum". Just as he was about to ask, Mrs. Song had already changed the subject.

    "I didn't expect to see you for a while, and you've already become a relative." Song Taifu said with a smile, "I looked at you a little bit at that time, but I didn't expect that Xinyan would marry you as his wife. This child is sincere."

    Seeing Taifu Song talking about this matter, Qin Tian didn't think to hide it from him, so he told the truth one by one. So dramatic, Song Taifu was stunned. After a while, he sighed:

    "Actually, I think the Zhuang family is also a good family. Apart from some inconveniences, Xinyan is also a rare good boy. Qin Tian, ​​this old man knows you are smart and capable, but no matter how smart and capable a 'woman' is, you must rely on it, otherwise it will end. Generally it is not good. Maverick can attract attention and admiration of others to a certain extent, but once this degree is exceeded, it will be punished by the world. Qin Tian, ​​as a 'woman', he has to take every step. Steady, don't be careless."

    Seeing his concern, Qin Tian understood that Taifu Song was really doing his best, and said, "Uncle Song's words, Qin Tian will take it to heart."

    The next day, Song Taifu returned to the capital under the escort of Governor Song, and Qin Tianzhuang Xinyan saw off Song Taifu together. Before leaving, Mrs. Song also 'handed it over' on behalf of them and told them to go directly to Governor Song if they had something to do in the future, and Governor Song promised.

    *****

    Shortly after the holy car left Yangcheng, the fame of "Biluo 'Spring'" quickly spread throughout the country. For a time, the owners of tea houses all over the country came to buy this upstart tea. How hot it is, you only need to know a thing or two from the fact that all the large and small inns in Yangcheng were full during that time, and even some residential houses began to welcome guests and make money.

    But there are more monks and less porridge, so today's Biluo 'Chun' 'Chun' tea is only fried so much. As a result, the price of Biluo 'Spring' has risen, and at the peak it even reached two hundred taels of silver, which is really more valuable than gold. Even so, it was still a head-scratcher. Because of this, it has driven the sales of other tea varieties. In a short period of time, all the tea leaves of Shengshi have been snapped up, and no one can match the limelight.

    Seeing this scene, the second room was jealous and heartache. If their filial piety tea was chosen by the emperor, all the scenery today would fall on their heads, and all the silver would fall into their pockets. But now they can only look at the great scenery of the big house, Qin Tian has a firm foothold, and they can only share a small part of the benefits. still don't know if the big house is playing tricks on the account!

    Zhuang Mingxi suspected that what Zhuang Xinchuan had found was not Biluo 'Chun' tea, and asked Zhuang Xinchuan to go to the Tingshan Mountain in 'Dong' for a careful inspection. The result was that Biluo 'Chun' was the frightening fragrance here. Zhuang Xinchuan thought about buying the tea trees here first. However, after inquiring, it was discovered that this piece of fruit mountain had been bought by Zhuang Xinyan. Zhuang Xinchuan secretly hated in his heart, but he still didn't give up. He asked people to go up the mountain to steal a few tea trees at night, and wanted to cultivate it by himself. He bought a piece of mountain and planted fruit trees, thinking that what would grow would be Biluo 'Chun' tea, and then he would be able to make a fortune with these Biluo 'Chun'!

    But as the saying goes: "When a tree moves to death, a man moves to live." The tea tree grew longer and more sluggish not long after it moved to another place. After a winter, half died, and the other half barely survived. In the 'spring' season, it was The tea leaves grew, and Zhuang Xinchuan happily asked people to pick them. He thought that gold and silver were close at hand, but no matter how good a tea maker he hired, he couldn't make the fragrance of Biluo's 'spring'. Authenticity. Only then did Zhuang Xinchuan realize that this tea-making method was Zhuang Xinyan's unique trick! After a lot of hard work, Zhuang Xinchuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

    But that's all for later.

    Having said that, since Qin Tian took over the tea shop, he has encountered Biluo's 'chun' sale, and he is very busy. Zhuang Xinyan can only make suggestions and plan for her behind the scenes, but he can't help Qin Tian much in front of others. She had to deal with many things on her own, and she was already very tired when she came back from the sunset.

    What made her complain even more was that there were a lot of things waiting for her when she came back. The steward-in-law's wife of the mansion all blocked in front of her yard, and when they saw her, they surrounded her. One let her make up her mind, and the other wanted to answer her. It was a matter here and there. The first two finally understood why the eldest wife willingly 'handed over' the power of housekeeping to the second concubine.

    It's true that the 'energy' is limited, and no one has three heads and six arms. If this goes on, either the house will be in chaos or she will collapse first.

    Seeing her hard work, Zhuang Xinyan was very distressed, but he couldn't help in these matters, so he wrote: "Find someone you can trust to help you manage the house."

    In fact, Qin Tian is also thinking about this matter. He already has a personal choice in his heart, but he just doesn't know if it is suitable or not.

    She discussed with the eldest wife, the eldest lady thought for a while, and said, "Yanxing's family should have learned about housekeeping before. She herself is careful and cautious, but she is a suitable candidate, but..."

    Seeing the eldest wife frowning, Qin Tian took it, "However, I just don't know if Sister Yanxing can hold back those people!"

    Now, the stewards seem to be doing it well, that's because she had stunned them with the help of the eldest wife before. She Qin Tian is not afraid of things, and she can scare a few people with her ruthlessness. But Fang Yanxing was gentle and gentle and spoke softly, for fear of offending others. In addition, she is the daughter-in-law 'wife' of the third house, who is the least status in the mansion, can she control those servants who have a lot of heart? It is impossible for her to support Yan Xing by her side all the time.

    "Tell her first and see what she means. Don't force this kind of thing." The eldest lady said.

    After asking the eldest wife's opinion, Qin Tian came to Fang Yanxing's ginkgo garden. When they arrived, Fang Yanxing was embroidering 'flowers', and when she saw Qin Tian, ​​she quickly put down her work and greeted her.

    The two sat down across the coffee table

    Qin Tian explained his intention, Fang Yanxing was stunned for a while, then pointed to her nose, opened her eyes and asked, "Me? Do you want my housekeeper?"

    "Sister, besides you, I don't know who to look for in the whole mansion. Think about it, mother should not be 'fucked' to support herself. The second room... Needless to say, as for the third concubine... Before Qin Tian finished speaking, Fang Yanxing's face showed understanding.

    "Look at me, I've only been in charge for a month, and everyone has lost a lot of weight. It's a bunch of things in the tea shop, and it's also a bunch of things when I get home. I'm going to be squeezed out!" Qin Tian asked her to' touch' own face. She didn't tell a lie, her round face was now thinned into a melon seed face, not watermelon seeds, but sunflower seeds.

    Fang Yanxing looked at her haggard face and was very sympathetic, but being a housekeeper is not a light thing, and the second room is not a good thing. If she knew that the housekeeping power had fallen into her hands, how could it be so easy to give up?
