Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 65 Cousin, Your Cousin Will Help You Manage the Family Business 4

Outside the Jiang residence, the aunt's family of three was blocked by the tightly closed gate.

"Mother, is this Aunt's house?" Hua Wenhao asked, looking at the two characters "Jiang Mansion" above.

"It should be." Juan Niang was also visiting for the first time.

"Mom, I'm so tired, let's go inside and rest for a bit."

Hua Yuan was eager to go inside as soon as she arrived at her aunt's house, which her mother had mentioned.

She had been riding in a horse-drawn carriage all the way, and her back and waist were aching.

I hope that my aunt is really as my mother said, that she is very close to her, and that she will treat them well.

But if they really disliked them like her aunt did, at least they could have a decent meal. She had been eating dry rations for two days and didn't want to eat anymore.

Upon hearing her son and daughter's words, Juanniang immediately went up and knocked on the door.

After quite a while, someone finally opened a small crack.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?" The person inside leaned out halfway and sized up the people outside.

"We're here to see Liniang. I'm her older sister. We sent a message earlier."

"My master and mistress have gone on a long trip and are not currently at home."

Juan Niang frowned upon hearing this.

When will you be back?

"Not necessarily. Master often goes away for a month or two. I don't know when Master and Madam will return."

The door closed again.

"Mother, what should we do?" Hua Yuan was also very anxious when she saw that they had run all the way here but could not even get through the door.

Wasn't all her suffering these past two days for nothing?

I don't know what my mother was thinking, but she insisted on bringing them out.

I went to my maternal grandparents' house, but my aunt mocked me and kicked me out.

Now, when people come to see their aunt, they can't even get through the door.

This is really exhausting.

No wonder Dad always says Mom is troublesome.

I'm never going out with Mom again.

Aren't you comfortable staying at home, enjoying good food and drinks?

They have to come out and make themselves suffer.

Juanniang didn't know what to do for a moment.

To my utter surprise, Liniang was nowhere to be found; I didn't even get to see her.

If she returns in a few days, she can find an inn to stay in first.

Is this month or two months?

She didn't have that much money on her.

But if she goes home, should she go straight back? Wouldn't that mean she has to bow down to that Aunt Zhao?

"Mother, since Auntie isn't here, let's find an inn to settle down first."

After traveling for two days, it's time to rest.

The scenery in Jiangnan is indeed beautiful; it's perfect for Mother who wants to relax.

Hua Wenhao didn't expect this outcome. Was his aunt and mother really that close?

Before I came, my mother confidently said how good their relationship used to be.

She even said that without her having to say a word, her aunt would ask them to stay.

He knew that his mother's purpose in coming out this time was to force his father to back down and come back to her, so that his mother could suppress Aunt Zhao.

But with Aunt Zhao around, and Mother still coming out, isn't that just handing over the throne?

Won't Mother's pressure on Father push him further away?

They've been out for over half a month, and there's still no news from Dad.

He was worried that his mother's outburst would further diminish their standing with their father.

Because of his mother, his father also gave him a cold shoulder.

They should go back as soon as possible.

They came out for a trip, and now that they've had their sightseeing, it's time for them to go back.

Moreover, he overheard his nanny and mother saying that they didn't have much money left.

If they don't go back soon, are they really just going to wait here and end up homeless?

In his opinion, this concubine was clearly deliberately going out to avoid her mother, knowing that her mother was coming.

Maybe it's some news from my aunt's side.

Otherwise, the Jiang family would just be a small business with only one shop, why would they need to go out to work?

They were gone for a month or two at a time; even my father, a county magistrate, wasn't that busy.

To be honest, the Jiang family should have been trying to curry favor with them since they knew they were coming.

Now he's shutting himself in and refusing to see anyone, clearly avoiding his mother and afraid she'll stay here.

Juanniang had no other choice but to do this.

Back on the carriage, we found a cheaper inn and decided to stay for two days.

The scenery in Jiangnan is truly beautiful—beautiful landscapes, beautiful people, and beautiful things.

However, the expenses are also high.

The food here is more expensive.

The item is beautiful, but it's also expensive.

Hua Yuan was truly tempted by the beautiful clothes and gorgeous jewelry in the shop.

However, the price is prohibitive for most people.

Even my mother wouldn't buy it, let alone buy it for her.

You can only look at it.

The more I look at it, the more I want it.

In the end, the three of them walked around for a while, just looking, but didn't buy anything.

Hua Wenhao looked at the items here. Although they were all the same things, they were being sold for twice the price.

He had originally planned to buy something for his father to take back with him.

Upon seeing the price, he decided against it.

Since the items are all the same anyway, he might as well go back and buy them.

Anyway, he said he bought it in Jiangnan, so his father won't know.

His father would only be happy that he was away and still thinking about his father.

After staying for two days, Juanniang finally decided to set off to go back.

Hua Wenhao was relieved to see that his mother had finally come to her senses.

Mother has to go back and fight to get what she wants. Hiding outside is just giving her opponents an opportunity.

He studied diligently in the carriage this time, and I believe his father will be very satisfied with him when he gets back.

Hua Yuan was very happy to see that her mother finally said she was going back.

Finally, she was going home. She longed to lie down in her comfortable bed and get a good night's sleep.

From now on, she will never go out with her mother again.

If Mother wants to come out, then she can come out herself.

She simply didn't want to come out.

The carriage swayed and wobbled as it made its way back.

"Mom, this snack is delicious."

Jiang He took a pastry from the plate and gave it to her mother.

"Is it really that delicious? Then let me try some?" Mother Jiang took the pastry and took a bite.

It has a slightly bitter taste, but a very pleasant aroma.

The aroma of tea fills the air.

These tea-based snacks taste really good.

"It really is quite delicious."

"Mother, when Father comes back, ask him what kind of pastry this is."

"Okay, Mother remembers. When we go back, shall we take some with us?"

"Good, good, good, Mother is so good."

Jiang He and his group have arrived in Yu City.

Yucheng's tea is very famous.

There are snacks and dishes made with tea, and they all taste very good.

Jiang He really likes to eat it.

The next day, Jiang He went out with her parents.

There are also many unique, fun, and delicious things to do in Yucheng.

Although it's not as lively as Jiangnan, it has its own unique charm.

For several days in a row, Mr. Jiang took Mrs. Jiang out for a trip.

"Sir, you take us out to play every day. Won't that interfere with your business negotiations?"

"Don't worry, Li Niang, it won't delay me. I've already made all the arrangements."

Li Niang nodded. "Master, when shall we go back?"

"Does Liniang not like Yucheng?" Jiang Qingyun looked at Liniang's expression seriously. If Liniang didn't like it here, he would find another quieter place.

"No, Yucheng is great. It's quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, and I like it very much."

I'm just worried about my younger sister. If we go back early, we might be able to see her one last time.

"Well, I see that you all really enjoy the snacks here, so I'm thinking of opening a snack shop here so you can eat them often."

The pastry shop isn't ready yet. If Liniang really wants to go back, we can go back first, and I'll come back and keep an eye on it later.

Jiang Qingyun said, feigning distress.
