Chapter 241

   "I'm back, are things going well outside today?"

  Grandpa Gu smiled when he saw his grandson.

"It went well. I found a future for a few uncles. It was a coincidence. His Highness lacked people in front of him. I remembered our family. I took advantage of the situation. His Highness accepted it very much. I will go to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households in a few days." report."

   "Oh, what job is for you."

  Grandpa Gu is afraid that his grandson will only think about his family, so don't take over the work that he can't do. All his good intentions will be in vain.

   "Mathematics, the Ministry of Industry is short of people. I thought that several uncles had done it before, and I remembered it when I mentioned it to Your Highness."

  Gu Lei is also quite happy.

   "This job is capable. Let your eighth uncle and the others come first, and come here to settle down first. Your eighth uncle will help us and my father a few miles away, and will always support you. Don't forget about the benefits."

   "Yes, grandpa, don't worry, whoever really helps me think about the Gu family is in my heart, and I can't be wrong."

   "It's not for nothing to reward the future in terms of merit and deeds. Your father-in-law will also support his own people first, and let them go later if they don't work."

"yes."

  Gu Lei knew that grandpa was angry, so he didn't stop him, so he should be cold. I have survived the most difficult time, and now it's time to practice Falun Gong.

   "I just went to Grandma Fifth to talk about the shop, and Grandma agreed to help me run the shop."

"Your fifth grandma loves you the most. When Yu'er comes in, she will take over the family affairs. Your grandmother and the others are not physically able to withstand such hard work, and they can't do it for long. You have to think about the other aunts in the clan who are able to praise you." Don't forget the capable ones among the brothers."

"yes."

"The situation is stable now. The people inside and outside the clan have to support their own people. Even if they are all surnamed Gu, they have to be divided into loyal and traitorous relatives. Someone has to speak for you and stand on your side. You, the patriarch, have someone to support you. Otherwise, it's not good to speak. Yes, that would be troublesome."

"yes."

   "You have to learn from your uncle's ability, but you are not him. You have no brother who sacrificed his life to pave the way for you. Brother Xin is too young to take on the heavy responsibility."

   "Your second uncle is not decisive enough. He can't be compared with your second uncle Li at all, and he is not enough to be reused. In the future, he will have to be promoted from among the brothers of the clan. Brother Ping can be cultivated. He is more honest and steady, and his heart is commendable."

"Brother Xin, needless to say, he is your right-hand man after training, but now he is not old enough to work hard. Brothers in the clan are willing to work with you wholeheartedly. You should be promoted, and there are capable uncles among uncles, but you have to be able to hold them back They can do it, otherwise you won’t be able to stand up and give you a jump.”

  Grandpa Gu is very clear about the family affairs. He didn't say it before because it was unnecessary. His grandson didn't know the situation clearly, so it was useless to say it.

   Now that the family affairs are getting smoother and smoother, and he is doing well, it is time to teach him the way of being a servant. The timing of the fire is very important. It is useless to say that it is too early to understand, and it is too late to rush.

   "Yes, my grandson has written it down. The end of the year is approaching, and I'm thinking about asking the housekeeper to give a wave of New Year's gifts. I've written the list, and you can take a look to see if there are any left behind."

  This is the disadvantage of not having a competent clan wife. Both men and women have to do the work of men and women, and they can't do anything less.

   Third Aunt Gu is also a widow, and the top leaders inside and outside are also exhausted, and there is no idler at the end of the year.

   Even Mrs. Gu Lin has to help with the list of New Year's ceremony, so it's a little bit capable.

   In a century-old family like theirs, the clan wife may not have a son, but she must be capable and healthy. There are too many family affairs and it is very hard.

   It is not a problem to have no son to adopt, but the loss of a clan wife is too great a loss for the whole family.

   Mrs. Wang is capable enough. She didn't let the men worry about her inside and out, and her daughters have to accompany her to help. When there is no free time, one can imagine how complicated the affairs of the big family are.

  The fact that the Li family gained a foothold so quickly has a lot to do with the ability of the Wang family and their daughter.

  Human contacts inside and outside, opportunities and resources are all actively run out, and it is the mother and daughter who went out to find out.

  Liu Guanshi, who is not a big or small person, is a network of Li Yu's contacts who have come out of the pole. They seem insignificant but they are very useful.

   There are many opportunities that can directly reach His Highness's ears.

  The network of the Yang family is also the first line established by the Wang family. After a while, the men also know each other and talk to each other, and they can see each other. This is the opportunity.

  The Gu family doesn't have a clan wife to go out and socialize, and without such vision, courage and scheming, this is a big trouble.

  There is no news channel, and there is less opportunity; there is no communication, less contacts, and families who have the same temper as each other, and have no chance to know each other.

  Even your family is not good enough to give favors. Look at Wang and Li Yu. If you have any new gadgets, send them over directly. If they are well received, the things are not expensive, and it is each other's heart.

  Men are not careful enough, and women are thoughtful when they don't think of it. Women can go to the backyard to meet the female relatives, and they can learn a lot of news after coming and going.

  The old lady of the Yang family is too old to take any supplements, so the candied fruit made by Li Yu will be given away. The younger generation respects the elders, and they are willing to accept it. They are willing to let you go home to talk.

  The list of the Yang family's Cangshu Pavilion was pulled in this way, can men go to the backyard to chat and drink tea every day, or not.

  Grandpa Gu took the list and checked it carefully, "I don't see too many tricks, you can show it to Yu'er, what can you remember if your old eyes are dim, and if you can't, just follow the Li family's photo of a cat and a tiger."

  Gu Lei chuckled, "Both of us are pointing at Yu'er."

   "That's right. From now on, the family will listen to Yu'er. If anyone is disobedient, you can just beat them with your hands. If you want to be a good clan wife, I will barely kowtow before marrying her into the family. You don't have to be polite to people if you don't treat them well, just beat them to death."

  Grandpa Gu rolled his eyes angrily.

   "Okay, I'll show it to Yu'er tomorrow. Last year, I made some candied fruit, as well as beef and mutton. I'm thinking about giving it to the military camp."

   "Success, send, don't be stingy, send more."

   "You go to bed early."

  Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Lei arranged for his grandfather to sleep.

   "Brother Lei, you have to treat Yu'er well, our family has a heavy burden, and others don't want to come to our house to bear this burden."

   "Grandpa, don't worry, I only have Yu'er in my heart, and I will never let her down."

"Um."

  Grandpa Gu sighed and lay down.

  Gu Lei withdrew from the main courtyard, and went outside his sister's courtyard wearing stars and moon.

   "Master."

   "My sister is in a good mood today, but there is something wrong. I won't go in when I come back late, so I will say something at the door."

   "Girls are all well. I learned housekeeping from the third lady. The old slave seems to be in a much better mood than before. He has become more energetic, and he can eat more food. Today, he has lunch with the old man at noon."

  The old lady in Gu Wan'er's room answered at the door.

"I'm busy outside. If I can't find anything, I will go to the third aunt directly. Don't delay. If there is anything missing in my sister's house, just go to the third aunt. Don't treat my sister slowly. You are the old man in the family. My sister entrusts it to you, but you have to watch the ghosts and monsters below."

   "Don't worry, young master, this old servant will take good care of the girl."
