Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 373: Courtesy

  Chapter 373 The courtesy is exhausted

  Xie Chunbo is the official second uncle in Xie Yu's family.

   Served as county magistrate in a county three counties away from Nanchang County.

  Usually in office, even Xie Yu rarely sees this second uncle.

  Unexpectedly, the plaque of her bookstore was inscribed by a dean who thought she was the county magistrate.

   "How did this come about?" Ye Muyu asked.

  Chu Heng took her hand and walked into the shop, explaining in a low voice: "It was Xie Yu who learned about this shop, so he took the job and said that this plaque was a gift from him."

   "As for the dean, because of the bookstore business, I plan to sell the exam questions and test papers I wrote on weekdays. I need to ask the dean."

   "The dean agreed, and he is willing to give us the right to sell his annotated books in the future."

  Lu Chuan said from the side: "These things are very precious. In the future, the books in the bookstore will be sold like mad, and the country test will be added."

  Ye Muyu thought to himself, isn’t it? You know, other bookstores also want to sell these individual annotations by famous authors.

  But I don’t agree, even if I’m greedy, I can’t help it.

   Now Chu Heng has settled the matter in only two or three days, and she can even imagine that the bookstore business will be booming in the future.

   No wonder Chu Heng suggested that she open a bookstore. This is simply the lowest-cost business.

  Ye Muyu already understood Chu Heng's intelligence, so she quickly calmed down.

   Followed into the shop.

  The bookshelves in the shop are all cleaned up. They don't look like new ones, but they have a unique charm, as if they were made of some precious wood that has been raised.

  Ye Muyu directly asked doubts: "Where did you buy these bookshelves, Lu Chuan?"

  Lu Chuan: "Madam, I didn't buy this bookshelf. It's a congratulatory gift from Young Master Du to Madam. He said he will come again when it opens."

   "Master Du has a heart, these woods should be very precious." Ye Muyu walked over and reached out to touch them.

  Chu Heng stood beside her: "It's nothing, compared to the meals you cook, this wood is not important to him."

  Although she said so, Ye Muyu has no habit of receiving favors from others for nothing.

  She thought for a while, then tilted her head to look at Chu Heng and said, "When will the book be printed, and when the opening time is confirmed, invite Master Xie and Master Du to come over for dinner?"

   "I will also have several dishes, they have never eaten, and I will invite my parents when the time comes."

  The custom in the general village is that when you move to a new house, you need to cook the bottom of the pot to invite relatives and friends to dinner.

  Buying a shop does not mean moving, so there is no need to publicize it. It is also appropriate to invite elders and friends who have given gifts in advance.

  Where can someone give a gift, just say thank you, and don't even invite people to eat.

  Ye Muyu had already made up his mind after thinking this way.

  Chu Heng thought for a while: "Why don't we invite them to dinner in the county? The exam is approaching, and they probably won't be able to spare time."

  Actually, it wasn't Du Heng and Xie Yu who were nervous about the provincial exam, but the elders in the family, especially Xie Yu.

  The Xie family lives in the house in Nanchang County, which is actually the family of the eldest son of Xie.

   There is an official in the second room of the Xie family.

  The old man of the Xie family also came down from the officialdom.

  Xie Yu is the youngest son of Xie's parents.

  He is still the youngest son who is twenty years behind his elder brother and second brother.

  He was given high hopes since he was a child. He was admitted as a scholar a few years ago, and he plans to try it this year. Although he is not sure whether he will pass, he can also learn about the rules of the exam and the questions.

  Du Heng is simpler. He is the second child in his family, and he has not been admitted to the scholar yet.
