I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl

Chapter 328 The Return of the Bai Family 1

In addition to running the shop, Gu Wenxuan did not forget to continue making money by brewing wine.

In addition to the wine that already has a competitor, Gu Wenxuan also led people to brew other types of fruit wine, such as mulberry wine, apricot wine, peach wine, hawthorn wine, cherry wine, and strawberry wine.

While her family continued to accumulate wealth, Gu Wenxuan was also helping two relatives.

In addition to recruiting workers in shops and workshops, distributing seeds and seedlings of new crops to relatives and neighbors in a planned manner, and providing various benefits and rewards to children through the school, Gu Wenxuan also rented a shop they purchased in the county town to Ning Qirui after consulting with Bai Jingzhou.

Ning Qirui had always wanted to start his own business. It just so happened that the silk and cotton products produced by Gu Wenxuan's textile workshop also needed to be sold, so Gu Wenxuan vacated a shop and let Ning Qirui open a cloth shop, mainly selling silk and cotton products produced by the workshop.

Their silk is not as good as that from Jiangnan and Shu, but it is in short supply because of its low price.

Not to mention cotton products. Cotton cloth is soft and skin-friendly and is more popular among wealthy families than linen. The fluffed cotton and the finished cotton coats, cotton shoes, cotton hats, cotton gloves, quilts, mattresses, etc. are also very popular because of their excellent warmth retention properties and are much cheaper than fur.

With these two types of goods to support his shop, even if Ning Qirui's shop cannot make a lot of money, at least he will not lose money.

As for how he decorated the store, recruited a manager, accountant and clerks, found other purchasing channels to enrich the variety of goods, and dealt with all kinds of people, Gu Wenxuan didn't care.

As for children, if they fall and suffer more, they will naturally become smarter and stronger.

Ning Qirui and his parents had never expected that Gu Wenxuan would entrust Ning Qirui with such a business that was sure to make a profit. After all, Gu Wenxuan herself had many relatives who needed her care.

The Ning family was very grateful to Gu Wenxuan for this. Ning Cuizhi, who was visited by her family members to express her gratitude, became more resolute in her previous thoughts - her daughter-in-law was the best daughter-in-law in the world, no doubt about it.

Ning Cuizhi didn't know it at the moment, because she always praised Gu Wenxuan for her kindness and consideration for relatives in front of her relatives, and more people would come to her for help when they encountered difficulties in the future.

Of course, even if Ning Cuizhi knew, she would still continue to praise her daughter-in-law.

As for those who come to seek help, if they are really in trouble and their family really has the spare money to help, Ning Cuizhi believes that Gu Wenxuan will definitely help as appropriate.

Compared to Bai Chong, who is clueless and always gives away one and a half of his earnings to help others, making her nervous, she prefers Gu Wenxuan, who is kind-hearted but will not put her family in trouble because of doing good deeds.

The subsequent development of the matter was indeed as Ning Cuizhi had expected. Gu Wenxuan not only frightened those people with evil intentions, laziness and greed, so that they no longer dared to have the evil thoughts of getting something for nothing, but also helped many relatives and neighbors who really needed their help.

I won’t talk about those who were borrowing money or looking for jobs, but just talk about a married lady from the Bai family.

According to seniority, this woman was Bai Jingzhou's cousin within five generations. Her husband was unable to marry the girl he liked because his family could not afford the high dowry offered by the girl's parents. In the end, he obeyed his parents' orders and "settled" to marry Bai, who was of average appearance and from an average family background.

After marriage, he not only despised his wife Bai, who was unaware of the situation, but he also always drank to drown his sorrows, acting as if he had suffered a great injustice.

His parents favored their son. Every time he got drunk, they couldn't bear to scold him, so they took it out on their daughter-in-law, scolding her for being useless and unable to win the heart of their own man.

Bai, whose husband always took away her private money, did not dare to confront her parents-in-law and could only swallow her anger. As a result, the man drank more and more, and gradually became a useless drunkard over the course of a few years. The situation of her and her two children became worse and worse. Not only were they always beaten, but they also suffered in terms of food and clothing because of the dislike of her parents-in-law.

A few days ago, the man got drunk and fell into a ditch and drowned. Her parents-in-law did not reflect on the problems between themselves and their son, but instead blamed her for not being able to manage the man and put the hat of being a husband-killer on her head.

Then, she and her five-year-old son and two-year-old daughter were kicked out by her in-laws.

Her parents have passed away, and her two brothers and one married sister all live a tight life. It's okay for temporary emergency, but in the long run, no family can afford to feed three extra mouths.

She was desperate and shamelessly went to the Bai family for help, hoping that they would hire her to help with the work.

Ning Cuizhi had dealt with the Bai family before. When the other party was sent back to her parents' home, she was so angry that she cursed Bai's husband's family for being so heartless.

Gu Wenxuan listened to her talk about how miserable Bai's married life was, and also heard her praise Bai for her diligence and good character.

At last, Ning Cuizhi couldn't help but sigh, "She is just unlucky. Her parents were blind to find her such a black-hearted husband."

Her family was living a good life, and Bai had a good relationship with her before. When Ning Cuizhi heard that she had taken her child back to her parents' home, she brought some silver, food, snacks and brown sugar to see her.

Bai's brother and sister-in-law were worrying about how to accommodate the mother and her two children. When they saw Ning Cuizhi and the headman's wife who came in right after her, Bai's two sisters-in-law suddenly felt relieved as if "a savior had walked into the house".

The two men pulled the headman's old wife and Ning Cuizhi and started crying. Bai, with her swollen and bloodshot eyes, hugged the two crying children with a blank expression.

The headman's wife listened to the whole story patiently, then patted Bai's shoulder and said to her gently, "Don't be upset or worried. You still have two children, and you still have your family to support you."

Ning Cuizhi also said, "That's right. The girls from our Baijia Village are not people they can just beat, insult, or drive out of the house. They must not leave you three without the written document of severing ties or the monetary compensation you should give."

Bai's face was full of disbelief. She returned to her parents' home with no other options. Although her brother and sister-in-law accepted her and were willing to provide her and her two children with food, they also sighed and complained a lot, and never said anything about seeking justice for her.

Her parents' family was not doing well and could not afford to support the three of them. Her brother and sister-in-law were not powerful enough to seek justice for her. Bai was very clear about this.

She thought that she and her two children had a bleak future, but unexpectedly, the village head's wife was willing to stand up for her.

Bai burst into tears and choked with sobs as she thanked the headman's wife.

The village head's wife comforted her a few words, and when she calmed down, she said she wanted to go home and tell Bai Lizheng about this.

Bai Lizheng had to personally take action to mobilize the young and middle-aged men of the Bai family to seek justice for his aunt.
