Chapter 149
Wei Qingwan, an employee of the braised food shop, smiled lightly: "Miss He, we are not familiar with each other, so we should not call you so intimate."
However, He Miaoer seemed not to feel Wei Qingwan's alienation and continued to flatter Wei Qingwan. Good: "Sister, I know that you have difficulties. Don't worry. We will never mention the relationship between you and us outside. Now in the house, no one else is around, so you don't need to worry so much. "Yes."
Mrs. He said quickly: "Yes, yes, Wanwan, we are relatives connected by blood, and Miao'er is your biological sister. We will pay attention to her outside, but at home, there is no need to avoid her like this."
Wei Qingwan avoided the three of them and walked timidly behind Yun: "Mother."
Yun frowned and saw her daughter's discomfort. Yun said to the He family: "Mr. He, Mrs. He and Miss He , please remember what you promised us back then."
Mrs. He quickly apologized and smiled: "I remember, don't worry, we won't tell everyone outside that Wanwan is our daughter; but aren't there no outsiders around now? Mrs. Wei, please be a little considerate of us as parents."
Listening to Mrs. He's explanation, Mrs. Yun didn't blame the He family too much. She was also a mother herself, so she could understand their mood.
"Wanwan, they are your biological parents, and it is human nature to care about you. Just have a good chat with them." Mrs. Yun said to Wei Qingwan.
Yun said so, and Wei Qingwan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Then, because Mrs. Yun had to transport the medicinal materials sent by the He family to the military camp, she left first and asked Wei Qingwan to greet the He family on her behalf.
As soon as Mrs. Yun left, the He family became even more enthusiastic towards Wei Qingwan.
"Wanwan, mother's Wanwan... you and mother really looked alike when we were young." Mrs. He looked at Wei Qingwan lovingly.
Wei Qingwan also discovered that she and Mrs. He had very similar facial features. This discovery, instead of making Wei Qingwan feel familiar to the He family, actually made her very uncomfortable.
"Sister, I heard before that Mr. Wei has been promoted again and has a bright future. Will my sister's status also rise with the tide in the future?" He Miaoer asked curiously.
"Why are you asking this?" Wei Qingwan didn't like He Miaoer's flattering look very much.
"I'm just asking around. After all, I'm not as lucky as my sister to be able to grow up in a wealthy family like Earl's Mansion." He Miao'er said with envy.
Wei Qingwan didn't want to have a direct conflict with the other party, so she responded: "Being in an official family also has its difficulties. Many things are not as comfortable as sister Miao'er." He Miao'er didn't listen: "Sister Wanwan, I and
I My parents will stay here for a few more days. Would you like to take me around for some fun?"
Wei Qingwan declined: "I have to go to the magistrate's office every day to attend lectures, so I don't have time to accompany you. And sister Miao'er shouldn't be with you. Are you more familiar with Sister Ruo'er? If there is anything, it's better to go to Sister Ruo'er."
Wei Qingwan wanted to throw this trouble to Wei Ruo.
As everyone knows, the relationship between the He family and Wei Ruo is very weak. They haven't seen each other for many years, and now they can't recognize Wei Ruo standing in front of them.
"But just now I heard that sister Ruo'er is not at home now, and it will take some time before she can come back." He Miao'er replied hurriedly.
Wei Qingwan also realized that she didn't know if Wei Qingruo was lucky or something, but she happened to miss the family named He.
"Sister Wanwan, don't refuse, just take me around! I promise to behave well when I go out and never talk nonsense!" He Miaoer took the initiative to step forward,
took Wei Qingwan's arm, and spoke to her sister. .
Wei Qingwan had no choice but to agree to take her around when he had free time.
###
When Wei Qingwan was being annoyed by the He family, Wei Ruo in Fucheng was busy.
Because he was worried that Uncle Xu would be too busy alone, Wei Ruo took Mother Xu over as well. Anyway, the two shops in Xingshan County are running relatively smoothly, and they don't need the couple to look after them all the time.
Both shops, Wei Ruo, need to find suitable waiters, Sibaozhai needs a shopkeeper, and the braised food shop needs someone who knows some cooking skills and is disciplined and sensible.
When Wei Ruo and Xiumei were making stew in the kitchen of Tianqinyuan, they talked about finding someone who knew some skills. The cook heard this and quickly recommended her niece to Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo asked the cook carefully about her niece and learned that she had learned some skills from the cook, but later she stopped because she had to help her parents with her younger siblings.
Now I am fifteen years old, not yet married, and want to find a way to make a living to support my family.
After finishing speaking, the cook sighed: "If my niece can learn from me for a few more years, she can become a cook in a wealthy family without worrying about food and drink like me. Even if she gets married, she can do it with this skill." I straightened my back, but it's a pity..."
It's a pity that girls from families like them can't help themselves. After all, there are only a few people like her who can rely on their skills to make a decent living as a cook for a wealthy family.
After listening to the cook's description, Wei Ruo agreed to meet her niece.
The cook was very happy after hearing this and immediately arranged a meeting for Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo frowned when he saw the woman for the first time. She was fifteen years old, two years older than her, but she was thin, with yellow skin and looked malnourished.
Nowadays, the weather is getting colder, and the clothes the woman is wearing are also very thin, shabby calico clothes, the sleeves are still a length from the wrist, and they are obviously much smaller.
"I've met Miss... My name is Chen Aqing." The woman was too timid to look up at Wei Ruo.
"You don't have to be so nervous. I hired you to work in my friend's shop, not to sell you." Wei Ruodao.
"Slave... I don't dare to..."
"You first make a side dish that you are good at and give it to us to try."
Wei Ruo arranged for Chen Aqing to cook a dish for them in the kitchen of Tianqinyuan.
Although she was timid and timid, Wei Ruo and Xiumei were quite satisfied with the dishes she made.
So he decided to let her follow Xiumei for a while, learn some skills, and at the same time exercise her courage.
To be an employee in Wei Ruo's store, you still have to be confident.
After learning that she was hired by Wei Ruo, Chen Aqing knelt down and kowtowed to Wei Ruo: "Thank you, miss, thank you, miss..."
Wei Ruo didn't understand how excited she was.
The cook explained from the side: "Miss, you don't know something. If she fails to find a job this time, there is a high probability that she will be sold into the brothel by my evil-hearted brother!" That's it
.
Wei Ruo looked at the thin figure crying in front of him and said: "As long as you have a correct attitude, work hard, and don't have evil thoughts, you will never be hungry in the future." (End of Chapter
