Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng

Chapter 378 Broken Relationship

The Ministry of Industry is working day and night to build the Chamber of Commerce building, and the villagers are also working day and night to build new houses, striving to complete them before the end of the year so that they can have new houses to celebrate the New Year.

The day for the imperial merchant election has arrived. After layers of screening, the Ji family was finally selected as the imperial merchant as they wished.

Those officials who were found to be corrupt and accepting bribes were not only dismissed from their posts and investigated, their properties were confiscated, but they were also exiled.

Gao Zhiyi's inn was renovated and she chose a date to open it.

Gao Zhijun told Gao Zhiyi that the inn's business was not good during the New Year, so it would be better to cook some food on the first floor. Gao Zhijun taught her how to barbecue and started with barbecue.

On the opening day, Gao Zhijun brought people to help.

When the aroma of meat wafted out, it attracted many people from nearby, and they came with their families to patronize the restaurant.

The weather is cold and it is very satisfying to have a delicious meal of meat and vegetables.

Business is booming today, and we have attracted several guests to stay overnight, so it is considered a good start to the business.

After Gao Zhiyi's inn opened, everyone returned to normal.

Every day Gao Zhijun either went to see how the Chamber of Commerce was being built, or to check out the workshops and shops.

On this day, Gao Zhidan's embroidery shop opened, and half of the rich people in Beijing came. Because the ready-made clothes in her embroidery shop were all antique skirts that Gao Zhijun saw on a baby in her previous life. But the styles and colors here are much more amazing. Therefore, it attracted many customers.

The ready-made clothes are not expensive, only about five taels more expensive than those sold in other embroidery shops, which is already a huge profit.

Gao Zhijun also taught Gao Zhidan the technical formula for dyeing cloth from her previous life so that she could open a dyeing workshop.

After Gao Zhidan’s embroidery shop opened, Gao Zhishan’s restaurant opened.

In addition to teaching the Sun family some recipes from their previous lives, Gao Zhijun also taught Gao Zhishan a few dishes from her previous life.

Of course, these dishes are not available at Sun’s Restaurant, so there is no competition.

When Gao Zhishan opened her restaurant, many wealthy businessmen in Beijing came with their families to patronize.

The village head took the villagers who were not selected by Gao Zhijun back to Taizhou.

We traveled day and night without stopping and finally returned to Taizhou before the New Year.

As soon as Ji Guansen and Luo Mingkuan arrived in Taizhou, they parted ways with the village head and returned to Leshan Village.

Luo Mingkuan returned to Leshan Village and met his father Luo Hu.

"Dad, Mom, are you all right?"

Luo Mingkuan put the gift on the table and asked the two elders.

"Well, I heard that your family went to the capital and are back."

Luo Hu asked his eldest son Luo Mingkuan.

The son had some help from his mother's family and now lives a good life.

"Just got back. I bought some gifts to visit you and mom. I also have something to discuss with you."

Luo Mingkuan said.

"What's the matter? Why don't you bring Ziqiao and Ziqi back?"

Wang Yumei didn't see her grandchildren, so she asked Luo Minghu.

"Ziqi, Ziqiao and Zhishan, they stayed in the capital. I came back this time to discuss with you that we are going to settle down in the capital. There is a shop here in Taizhou, and I bought it from Zhishan's cousin Zhijun. Because we separated from my parents, we give you one tael of silver every month. We can't give you one tael of silver every month in the capital, so we discussed it and decided to sever ties with you two and give you the shop as compensation. We will have no relationship with you two in the future. Zhishan said that the child should change his surname to Gao, and my son will be considered as marrying into the Gao family. If my parents agree, I will go to the village chief."

Luo Mingkuan lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at his parents who gave birth to him.

He had no choice. He had a younger brother or sister at home who were causing trouble, and he couldn't take his parents to the capital.

What if my brother and sister-in-law also have to go to the capital? It would be easy for her to offend those dignitaries in the capital, and it would be even easier to offend Gao Zhijun.

For his son's future prospects, he thought he should stay in the capital.

"What? You want to sever ties with us? You unfilial son, I gave birth to you and raised you, but you treat me like this."

Wang Yumei was angry and sad.

I raised him with all my heart. Now that he's grown up, he doesn't want me anymore. Do you think she wouldn't be sad?

"Mom, I have no choice. If Ziqiao stays in the capital, he can be sent to study in the Imperial Academy, which is the dream of many students."

Luo Mingkuan said helplessly.

"Of course it's good to study in the Imperial College, and I'm happy about it. What does this have to do with you severing ties with me?"

Wang Yumei was very happy when she heard that her grandson could study in the Imperial College.

Although she didn't know about the Imperial College, she had heard from others that those who studied there were either rich or noble, and that most of the graduates became officials. It was said that the worst that could be achieved was a county magistrate.

County magistrate! That can only be achieved with the smoke rising from the ancestral grave.

But what does this have to do with this unfilial son wanting to sever ties with me?

"Mom, you also know that Ziqiao was able to study at the Imperial College because of the relationship between cousin Zhijun. But you know what kind of temper our sister-in-law has. If she doesn't sever her relationship with you, she will definitely insist on going to the capital. There are many dignitaries in the capital, and if she offends them, her entire family will be killed. Moreover, she went to cousin Zhijun's house to celebrate the New Year last year, and cousin Zhijun hated her. So mother, there is nothing I can do."

Luo Mingkuan, an honest man, was also in tears at this moment, and he had no choice.

If he was the only son of his parents, he would definitely take them to the capital to enjoy a good life.

If his parents could be cruel enough to sever ties with his brother, he would definitely take him to the capital without hesitation to enjoy a good life.

If his brother and sister-in-law were not so pretentious, he would also take the whole family to the capital.

Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs. His parents cannot possibly sever ties with his brother's family, and his brother's wife cannot possibly change for the better, so he can only be an unfilial son and sever ties with his parents.
