Chapter 56: Preparing to take the imperial examination
After hearing this, Queen Changsun looked much better.
She sighed: "Well, since you have already made up your mind, Your Majesty, I won't mention this matter and make you worry any more."
"It's just that I thought that we were once beautiful and well-dressed, but now we may not be able to eat in a place we don't know, so I came to disturb you."
The voice fell.
Li Shimin also had complicated eyes, and Queen Changsun's words made him feel a little pain in his heart.
I even felt that my energy was not flowing smoothly, and my heart was blocked.
After a long while, he said with a slightly trembling voice: "Okay, that's it. Lizi is so smart, she can take care of herself."
"And her personal maid Xiaolin has also gone to take care of her. Maid Guanyin, don't worry."
"Hmm." Queen Changsun said absently.
Seeing this, Li Shimin sighed again, feeling even more dissatisfied with Qin Wenyuan!

Baiyun County, sunset.
At the temporary residence in Baiyun County, Changle felt extremely distressed when he saw that the people at the pawn shop had moved one-third of the money that was like a mountain of money this morning.
"Husband, our family is going to be poor again..." Chang Lela crossed her face.
Looks very cute.
Qin Wenyuan was amused by Chang Le, pinched his wife's beautiful face, and said with a smile: "Madam, why do you think we make money?"
"for what……"
Changle murmured, thought vaguely for a moment, and replied: "This... I really don't know this."
As a princess, she had no concept of money since she was a child.
The reason why she has become so obsessed with money now is because her family is too poor. She feels heartbroken even if she loses even a penny.
Moreover, all this money was earned by her husband with great difficulty, so she felt uncomfortable spending it like this.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said calmly: "Madam, listen to me, the money we make should be used for enjoyment."
"If you have to endure hardship to make money, then what's the point of making money?"
"dont you agree?"
Changle nodded vaguely, "It seems to make some sense."
Qin Wenyuan continued: "Also, we spent more than 700 taels this time, how much silver do we have left at home?"
Faced with the problem of silver taels, Changle said directly: "There are still one thousand four hundred and fifty-eight taels, four hundred copper coins left."
After the words fell, Qin Wenyuan was slightly startled.
this……
Good guy.
My wife remembers the amount of silver and is accurate to copper coins.
Isn't it terrible?
Qin Wenyuan was ashamed. He could only remember a rough outline of the small treasury at home.
I bought the manor this time, thinking that I should still have a thousand taels of silver left. How could Chang Le remember it so clearly?
He wiped his sweat and said, "That's right."
"Madam, even if I spend money, I will never spend less than one thousand taels of silver. Do you know why?"
Changle thought for a moment and realized that indeed, although Qin Wenyuan had been spending money lavishly, he could always keep at least a thousand taels of balance with her.
But she couldn't figure out why this was the case, so she shook her head.
Qin Wenyuan said: "That's because if the weather is unpredictable, at least one thousand taels cannot be moved. That's what I use to deal with the future."
At this moment, Changle was completely relieved!
Because Qin Wenyuan had a plan and was not spending money randomly, his frown gradually relaxed.
This also made Qin Wenyuan smile knowingly.
…………
Chang'an, Taiyi Street.
Originally, Qin Wenyuan did not plan to buy a house here.
Because this place is so remote, there are very few vendors around.
In the words of later generations, it is a suburban area!
Well, the suburbs of Chang'an.
But Mrs. Changle said it was because it was closer to her store and she felt like home here.
Now that she had said so, Qin Wenyuan, who was a maniac about doting on his wife, pretended not to say anything and just bought a manor on Taiyi Street.
After all, she is his own miserable wife. If he doesn't pamper her, who will?
At this moment, Chang Le was stunned when he looked at the mansion in front of him and the two big characters "Qin Mansion" hanging high.
Even though she knew in advance that she was buying a manor, she was still surprised by such a majestic manor.
"This...this is our new home?"
Qin Wenyuan nodded, "Well, do you like it?"
Changle's lips raised slightly, "I like it, I like it."
Immediately, the two entered the manor.
The pawn shop regularly sends people to clean this manor, so even if it was just purchased, the house is still very clean and tidy.
The manor is so big, cleaning is also a big problem.
Now that the family is affluent, Qin Wenyuan, his wife Changle, must be reluctant to let her clean the house, and can only recruit servants.
You can have as many servants as you want. After all, in this era, the most indispensable thing is people.
There are really too many people who don't have enough to eat. As long as you lay down some conditions casually, you can easily recruit many slaves.
If there are even channels, you can buy real slaves, sinners, or war prisoners.
Of course, Qin Wenyuan didn't like those people.
After all, those people have hatred in their hearts, and who knows what they will do in the future.
Qin Wenyuan did not plan to buy the whole person, but offered him a monthly salary to recruit some people with innocent family backgrounds to work in the house.
Similar to the nine to five in later generations.
The difference is that he can provide food and accommodation here, and he can live under the same roof with the boss and his wife.
The treatment that Qin Wenyuan was prepared to give unilaterally was simply the conscience of the industry. He directly approached a dental shop and entrusted the matter.
It is estimated that everything will be in place the next day.
"Madam, this will be our home from now on." Qin Wenyuan said to Changle with a smile on his face.
Changle kept nodding his head, looking at the manor in front of him, feeling a different feeling deep in his heart.
This is...their home!
This is different from the palace, which is too big.
However, this was the first time she felt at home.
The home is not too big, but very cozy.
Afterwards, after settling down Chang Le and asking Xiao Lin to take good care of him, Qin Wenyuan took Xu Gou and left the manor in a hurry, as if he was going to do something big.
When they came back, Changle stumbled and almost fell down when he saw what they brought back.
That's... a book!
Lots and lots of books!!
Qin Wenyuan, Xu Gou, and even Mao Tu Wei Yang, all of them had their hands full of books!
Buying so many books at this time...
Husband, could he be...
Changle suddenly felt a little excited, but still asked calmly: "Husband, what are you..."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "For the imperial examination in seven days."
