The Fang family's ancestral home was in Shandong, and Miss Jun's great-grandfather came to Zezhou to sell spices, and settled in Yangcheng.
The great-grandfather who had made a fortune wanted a bigger property, but Yangcheng was mostly engaged in coal, and as an outsider, the Fang family couldn't get in the way. The great-grandfather found another way to marry his son to the daughter of the Cao family in Qi County, and took advantage of the opportunity to start a business. Qianzhuang Deshengchang.
With the help of his father-in-law's family and his great-grandfather's good management skills, within a few years Deshengchang has been managed into one of the best banks, becoming a big household in Yangcheng and even Zezhou.
After Miss Jun's great-grandfather passed away, the property was inherited by the eldest son Fang Shouyi, who was also Miss Jun's grandfather.
Fang Shouyi lived up to his father's promise and made Deshengchang more prosperous. However, when Chunfeng was successful in his career, he suddenly died of a sudden illness. He was thirty-eight years old. Fortunately, his son Fang Nianjun was an adult and he could be regarded as a successor.
Fang Nianjun is Miss Jun's uncle. Although he has just turned twenty, he has been running the bank account with his father since he was a child, and has already taken over the business, so the bank account of the Fang family has not been affected. Unlucky enough to make a few more fortunes, the Fang family's business has improved to a higher level.
But what I didn't expect was that something happened to Fang Nianjun at this time.
"one thing."
When the girls said this, Miss Jun, who had been listening quietly, interrupted them.
The girls looked at Miss Jun with some anxiety.
"Did the Fang family have only one male inheritance from the generation of great-grandfather?" Miss Jun asked.
When the great-grandfather first came to Yangcheng, because he relied on the Cao family, he did not take a concubine after marrying the daughter of the Cao family. It can be said that he only had one son, but how could Miss Jun's grandfather only have one son when his business grew bigger? A great family and a great business must be maintained by thriving descendants.
Hearing her question, fear flashed in the girls' eyes.
"Not really." A girl bowed her head and said, "The old man has four brothers."
In other words, Fang Shouyi was not the only son of great-grandfather at that time.
"Before Mr. Zeng passed away, he divided their families. Since Mr. Zeng was the eldest son, he inherited the Yangcheng bank account business, and the rest of the brothers returned to their hometown in Shandong with their share of the property, so Yangcheng There is only the old man here." The girl continued.
That's it, Miss Jun nodded.
"Is it the same for my uncle's brothers? After my grandfather passed away, my uncle inherited the family business, so they went back to their hometown in Shandong?" she asked.
The girls chattered.
"The old man only has two children, the master and the young lady." They said.
As a granddaughter, it's ridiculous that she doesn't even know how many siblings her mother has.
This kid is really big-hearted, he really treats Fang's house as an inn, and he doesn't even bother to take a second look.
Miss Jun smiled.
"Then what happened to my uncle?" she continued.
The girls were all relieved to see that she no longer asked about the heirs. This expression was naturally seen by Miss Jun, but she didn't ask anything.
"At that time, because of the war with the Jin people, there was turmoil in the northwest, and there were many bandits and bandits. On the way back, the master met bandits. Although there were more than a dozen bodyguards to protect him, he was still seriously injured. Not long after he came back He died." A girl said, "At that time, Master was only twenty-five years old."
He was younger than his grandfather when he died, and what was more terrible was that he had no son who could inherit the family business.
"At that time, the master had three daughters, and the wife was just pregnant. Fortunately, a son was born." Another girl said.
That was fourteen years ago, and Miss Jun was only born, so it was impossible to remember her mother's reaction to this brother's accident.
Miss Jun gave up searching for memories.
"The family business has been supported by the old lady and the eldest aunt for so many years." She said.
The girls nodded with unabashed admiration on their faces.
"...When the old man was gone, people from Shandong wanted to divide the family property... It was the old lady who resisted and drove them away..."
"...I heard from my mother, it's not just Shandong, the Cao family is also here, and they want to calculate our family's property..."
"...Although the old lady hasn't seen any business for decades, she is the daughter of the Cao family who started out as a bank operator. She just took over the business and stabilized people's hearts within a few months..."
"...Yeah, at that time, the industry was in turmoil outside, and the wife at home almost had a miscarriage because of excessive grief, and the old lady had to take care of the family outside when she was busy..."
"In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. Not only has our Fang family survived, but the business is still very good."
"The old lady is amazing."
The girls couldn't help chattering. Miss Jun, who had always disliked the Fang family's humbleness, didn't interrupt and scold them. Instead, she listened with a smile and nodded when she heard this.
"Yeah, the old lady is really amazing," she said.
The girls were quieted down by her words, and looked at her expression anxiously, seeing that she didn't intend to ridicule or get angry.
"It's not easy." Miss Jun continued, sighing.
A girl in a boudoir, who married her father and followed her husband at home, didn't care about foreign affairs, cared for her husband and raised her children, but was hit by her husband's bereavement and son's death one after another within five years, but still had to shoulder the heavy burden to support the family business.
In the husband's family, everyone in the mother's family is staring at each other. No one can rely on their trust. They all rely on themselves. The girls said that she will take over and stabilize the bank business within a few months. The wife has figured it out herself.
Miss Jun thought of the old lady's indifferent expression, and Miss Jun's memory was disgusted by it. She felt that this grandmother was cold, a lowly businesswoman who only knew about benefits but not favors.
How much tenderness is like water, has been exhausted by this series of blows and ten years of hard work, otherwise, how can I survive in this precarious situation.
"However, more than ten years have passed, and that young master should be able to bring him out to practice and inherit the family business." Miss Jun said.
This old lady has made it through.
As soon as this remark came out, the girls present had strange expressions, and Liu'er simply burst out laughing.
"Miss, you forgot that Young Master Fang is a paralytic," she said.
paralytic.
Miss Jun was taken aback, and then a memory emerged. The posthumous child of the Fang family, the only incense, was indeed a paralytic, and a paralytic who would not live to be fifteen years old.
The Fang family was not in Miss Jun's eyes, and she was too lazy to ask more questions about this paralyzed cousin, so that she didn't know what his name was. She remembered calling him paralyzed.
"My young master is not paralyzed, he is sick." Maybe it was because of Miss Jun's amiable look during this period, or because she really couldn't stand her master being ridiculed, a girl couldn't help but refute.
Liu Er scoffed.
"Are you sick and can't move?" she asked.
The girls were speechless.
"So it's still paralytic." Liu'er said with a sneer.
Miss Jun tapped on the table with her fingers, interrupting Liu er's smile.
"In other words, the men of the Fang family have suffered misfortune one after another." She said slowly, "The incense will soon be cut off."
The maids looked depressed and terrified, which was the reaction when I asked about the other children of my great-grandfather just now.
"Then it's too unfortunate. Why do men have accidents one after another." Miss Jun looked at the girls and said softly.
The girls bowed their heads and said nothing, while Liu Er clapped her hands with a clack.
"I remembered." She said, "Miss Lin's girl said that the Fang family's male is cursed."
