Chapter 1961 The Situation of the Gan Family

Shu Yu finally couldn't hold it back and asked Jiang Fengshou to come to the study.

After the other party sat down, she said straight to the point, "Tell me about the situation of the Gan family."

Jiang Fengshou glanced at Shu Yu, and he probably guessed what was going on.

He was familiar with many wealthy families in Fucheng. After Gan Rui came here several times, he paid more attention to them and even went to inquire about them.

So when Shu Yu asked, he told him honestly.

"The Gan family is in the wine business. The brewing skills inherited from our ancestors have been a time-honored brand in Changjin Mansion for decades. There are also shops in other places, but they are the best in Changjin Mansion."

"Mr. Gan is the fourth in the family. He has two brothers and one sister. The eldest brother and the third sister are from the same mother. The second brother is the son of his aunt and is a concubine. The Gan family's backyard is quite clean."

Gan Rui's biological brother is more than ten years older than him. The age difference is quite big, especially since his mother passed away when Gan Rui was seven or eight years old, so he dotes on this younger brother. Nowadays, most of the Gan family's properties have been taken over by this elder brother. Gan Rui also has a farm shop under his name. They are all managed by stewards, so he doesn't need to worry about them. They receive dividends every year, and they have enough food and clothing to spend generously.

Gan Rui is not a businessman, but he is a good man and has many friends.

In addition, his brothers and sisters-in-law take good care of him, making his life very comfortable.

Shu Yu narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, "So, the Gan family is now headed by brother Gan Rui and his sister-in-law?"

"It can be said that Father Gan is actually not a business person. He is somewhat similar to Gan Rui."

But at least Gan Rui was good at studying. Gan's father also studied and tried to take the imperial examination, but he couldn't do well in studying. In the past, when the old man was young, he didn't have to worry about the business. Later, when the old man got older and his eldest son took over, he didn't need to take on the responsibility.

Gan's father is equivalent to a wealthy and idle man, and he is indeed. He wished he could just ignore everything and be a hands-off shopkeeper. Now that his first wife had passed away eight or nine years ago, he had not thought about marrying another step-in-law. He spends his days looking at flowers and walking birds, talking about poetry and songs with people, going on outings, and is not good at reading, but he has the air of a literary scholar.

When he had no money, he asked his eldest son for it. Fortunately, he didn't ask for much. Even though Gan's father was playing around, he was quite stingy. He can spend money on himself, but not on others. It is said that many years ago, some people who didn't know him well saw his generosity and wanted to take him for granted. They deliberately didn't take any money with them, hoping that Gan's father would help him pay it out.

The man thought that Gan's father was a scholar, so he must save face by pretending to be presentable.

Unexpectedly, Gan's father didn't care about him. He didn't have money to take a car? Then walk and have no money to eat? Then you're hungry and don't have money to buy anything? Then don't buy it. Anyway, he just paid his own money, and no one else could take advantage of him.

Shu Yu, "..." The three father and son of the Gan family really have their own personalities, completely different.

But it has to be said that none of them are the ones to worry about.

"What else?" Shu Yu asked, "Is the sister-in-law of the Gan family easy to get along with? How is her temperament?"

"Ms. Liao, the eldest sister-in-law of the Gan family, has a gentle temperament and is a typical lady of the family. She manages all the affairs of the family. Anyway, the Gan family's servants think very well of her, saying that everything is taken care of properly. There should be some interactions between relatives. The etiquette is in place, I have a son and a daughter, and my status is very secure."
