The Prince Marquis of Changping got married, so naturally it was not easy to separate the houses immediately. However, the Crown Prince's wife kept her word, and within ten days, she actually delivered all the items on Mrs. Hou's dowry list.
Some of them were secretly sold by my aunt's brothers, and the money was converted into money and given away.
Qiao Chu was not interested in this and asked Qiao Xiaofu to count them directly, saying that they would be reserved for the marriage of Qiao Xiaofu's three sisters in the future.
Qiao Xiaofu's eyes became wet as he looked at the long and thick dowry list.
Logically speaking, at least half of the dowry list should be given to my aunt, but my aunt doesn't want any of it and says it's all for herself...
Mrs. Shizi, who personally delivered the dowry list, took Qiao Chu and ran upstairs, talking happily about the process of getting the dowry back.
It turned out that the aunt's two brothers used their positions to embezzle part of the dowry, and then did some business outside with the influence of the Changping Marquis Mansion, but they did not suffer any loss.
After the Crown Prince's wife entered the house, she naturally became a householder immediately, so she forced the two internal and external stewards to return the money within a limited time.
Naturally, you don't want to spit out the things that have reached your mouth.
When it comes to internal and external affairs, we are prepared to use the "trick of procrastination" and try to make things miserable. According to convention, if a wealthy family wants to save face, it is best not to overdo it.
However, the Crown Prince’s wife was not a stickler for rules, so she went to the Yamen directly!
Now the two internal and external managers couldn't help but sell off the land and shops in their hands, and managed to cover the shortfall!
The aunt wanted to plead for mercy, but the Crown Prince's wife only said: "If you want your brothers to have less money, it's not impossible..."
The aunt felt that there was something interesting and eagerly waited for the Crown Prince's wife to speak.
Unexpectedly, the Crown Prince's wife said: "You can pay for the part they don't pay. After all, you spent a lot here..."
When the aunt heard this, she immediately shut up: she had indeed embezzled many jewelry-buying shops.
If she had to choose between her brothers and herself, she would choose to look after herself first without hesitation.
When Mrs. Shizi said this, she was very happy and imitated her aunt's expression and tone vividly, making Qiao Chu laugh out loud!
Only then did she realize that Miss Liang Er was such a wonderful person!
My eldest brother is more calm than funny, but Miss Liang Er complements him very well. This is a good marriage.
Madam Shizi is a talkative person. After saying this, she also talked about how to deal with the concubines and concubines in the Changping Marquis Mansion...
He also talked about the situation with the eldest princess.
However, compared to talking about the gossip about the Changping Marquis Mansion, she spoke much more obscurely about the gossip about the First Prince's Mansion.
After her eldest sister married the eldest prince, she now just lived her own life and basically had no expectations for the eldest prince.
The couple had a mutual respect for each other, and they each went their own way, maintaining only superficial politeness without saying a single thoughtful word.
Therefore, the eldest prince's concubine did not know about the eldest prince's suppression of Tianxiangfang.
Qiao Chu understood clearly that her stepsister-in-law was trying to excuse the eldest princess, saying that the matter had nothing to do with the eldest princess and that she should not bear any grudge against the eldest princess.
Even after leaving the pavilion, there are still girls who want to help, the eldest princess is actually quite happy.
Qiao Chu couldn't help but think of Rong Liu.
The ruthless man who was willing to sacrifice his life for the eldest prince for glory and wealth has not been seen recently. I don’t know if he was beaten to death? Or what happened?
After Mrs. Shizi said goodbye and left, Qiao Chu asked Qiao Xiaofu, who had been hanging out among the ladies and ladies all day, if he knew anything about Rong Liu.
Qiao Xiaofu nodded: "I heard that he has been doing quite well recently. He is very virtuous and takes great pleasure in serving the eldest princess and the two concubines..."
Qiao Chu was stunned for a long time and had to admire him.
Rong Liu finally came to his senses: he knew that the eldest prince was unreliable, so he simply took refuge with his mistress!
In the evening, Wei Wan came again, bringing the contract and giving a new suggestion.
"We are going to grow various medicinal materials in two villages on the outskirts of Beijing. When you make balm and powder, do you want fresh medicinal materials to be better? How about we cooperate?"
Qiao Xiaofu and Cui Xiuxiu's eyes immediately lit up: if there are some medicinal herbs, it would be better if they are fresh!
Especially lip balm, blush, toilet water, etc., it is best to use fresh petals to make them, so that not only will the quality of the products be better, but it will also be more gimmick...
Ahem! It just sells for a higher price!
So Qiao Xiaofu immediately began to calculate how much it would cost to buy a farm with fields in the suburbs of Beijing, and what kind of planting would be more cost-effective...
Qiao Chu watched the whole process, but he was thinking in his heart: Now he can't use spiritual power to regulate his body, let alone practice. He can only plant some medicinal materials in the immortal space...
Nowadays, the fields in the Immortal Mansion space have been greatly expanded, and there are still many open spaces that have not been used.
Why not grow some medicinal materials that they can use to make balm and powder?
As soon as she thought of it, Qiao Chu asked Wei Wan to buy various medicinal materials and flower seeds.
Many flowers are actually medicinal materials themselves, and Wei Wan’s Chunhui Hall can actually harvest the seeds.
So Wei Wan readily agreed.
After signing the contract and negotiating a new cooperation, Wei Wan was also very happy: "I will ask someone to pick you up tomorrow. Let's go to the suburbs of Beijing to look at the farm together. Let's start working on it as soon as possible?"
Qiao Chu looked at Wei Wan: "Are you in such a hurry?"
Wei Wan smiled: "There is a letter from the palace, saying that I want to enter the palace as soon as possible. I am afraid that after entering, it will not be easy to come out in the future."
This can be regarded as the last contribution to my mother's family.
"Have you met the fifth prince?" Qiao Chu suddenly asked.
Wei Wan also laughed: "Isn't it the one I met at the gate of Tianxiangfang that day?"
"What's your impression of him?"
Wei Wan instantly remembered the quarrel between Zhao Xiang and Qiao Xiaofu, and couldn't help but smile.
Qiao Chu then nodded: "It seems that he is very satisfied."
Wei Wan was shy for a moment and punched Qiao Chu: "Don't talk nonsense! I didn't..."
"That means you're not satisfied?" Qiao Chu teased her.
"You...I won't tell you anymore..." Wei Wan glared at Qiao Chu shyly.
Qiao Chu laughed heartily, feeling like she was teasing a playboy from a good family.
After finishing laughing, Qiao Chu asked about the maid he had followed when he was in Qiaojia Village.
Wei Wan said calmly: "She colluded with my concubine and drugged me, which made my teratoma worse... After the matter was found out, my concubine pushed her out to take the blame. She was tortured by my concubine.
Silenced..."
Both of them were silent for a moment.
Neither of them could sympathize with this kind of girl who betrayed her master.
Qiao Chu was not good at the farm and the like, so he did not interfere. He only asked Qiao Xiaofu and Cui Xiuxiu to go with them to buy the farm, and then determined what seeds were needed and how many people were needed...
Qiao Chu has been feeling sleepy recently, as if she didn't get enough sleep, and doesn't want to move except for practicing boxing.

It’s limited to free of charge today, it was supposed to be updated twice.
However, considering that you guys support me so much, what can I do if I update one more chapter?
So three updates.
Speaking of which, breaking corn at my parents’ house is really healing!
I used to hate farm work!
For this reason, I worked hard to climb out of the countryside...
It turns out that if you want to heal yourself, you must first accept your past. Sure enough, the way of heaven is reincarnation...
