At dinner time, Xue Lian still did not return home. Wu Shigong was no longer anxious to know what happened to his errand. He felt that even if he had any errands, his father-in-law had to let him spend his honeymoon before going.
Go to work. There will be many opportunities to ask your husband-in-law in the future.
After dinner, they said goodbye to Mrs. Zhang, and the young couple walked back to their new house laughing and smiling. As soon as they entered the new house, Xue Yufei suddenly said to Wu Shigong: "Husband, I have a few things here for you." Then.
, she walked into the bedroom, rummaged in the drawer under the dressing table, took out a purse and a few pieces of paper, and returned to Wu Shigong.
Xue Yufei first handed the purse to Wu Shigong and said shyly: "This is for your husband."
Zhu Yun, who was standing aside, hurriedly interjected: "This purse was made by the young lady." It is estimated that the master and servant may have rehearsed. However, maybe Wu Shigong put too much pressure on Zhu Yun in the afternoon, which made Wu Shigong feel Zhu Yun's
The voice has some changes in tone, so the whole show seems a bit nondescript.
Of course Wu Shigong would not do anything that would disgrace the scenery. At this time, even if the purse was made to look like a poached egg, he had to say yes. Wu Shigong admired the purse carefully and found that except for the embroidery on it, which was a bit rough, it was indeed
He did a good job. Wu Shigong smiled and praised Xue Yufei and said: "Very good! I like it very much. In a few days, Feier, you can make a few more purses like this for me. I want them in various colors. Let my husband carry them with me every day."
If you go out in one color, you will be jealous of others after you go out."
After listening to Wu Shigong's words, both Xue Yufei and Zhuyun were filled with joy. Xue Yufei then said to Wu Shigong: "I want to make a few sets of new clothes and new shoes for my husband. I originally wanted to make them before marriage, but I don't know your figure."
As for the size, wait a few days and I will measure it for you."
"Okay." Wu Shigong smiled and nodded. It is indeed different for a married man to have his wife's concern.
Seeing that Wu Shigong had put away the purse, Xue Yufei then handed the pieces of paper to Wu Shigong and said: "These are all sent by the Wu family. Mother has told me to give them to your husband for safekeeping."
Wu Shigong took the pieces of paper and looked at them. They turned out to be several land deeds, house deeds, and two contracts for renting out shops. These were his dowry. Wu Shigong took the land deed of Zhuangzi first and looked at it carefully.
Look, the village is not big, with more than 90 acres of land, not even an acre of land. Wu Shigong didn't know what the land price was in the Ming Dynasty, so he asked Xue Yufei: "How much silver is one acre of land in this village worth?"
"
"About fifteen taels of silver." Xue Yufei answered somewhat uncertainly.
Zhuyun must have read these land deeds and house deeds. He interjected from the side: "Fifteen taels of silver per acre is the price of cultivated land near the capital. My uncle's village is in a relatively remote location, so it is worth twelve or three taels.
.”
That's pretty good, the total value of Zhuangzi is more than a thousand taels of silver. Wu Shigong thought with satisfaction. Seeing that Zhuyun seemed to be familiar with these, Wu Shigong handed over the land deeds, house deeds, and contracts.
Zhu Yun asked Zhu Yun, "Please tell me the details of those two shops."
After Zhuyun took it, she looked at it carefully and said to Wu Shigong: "Uncle, of the two shops, one is a powder shop, which is at Chongwenmen. But the strange thing is that according to the size and location of this shop,
, The rent of this shop is a bit high, sixty taels of silver a year. With this rent, in just four or five years, you can buy a similar shop back." Wu Shigong nodded, thinking in his mind: The tenant himself will be mentally retarded.
Give me more money and I'll take care of him when I'm full.
"The other shop is a cloth shop, which is at Xuanwumen. The annual rent is seventy-eight taels. This shop is very large, covering an area of four acres. All the things given by the Wu Mansion are in this shop
The most valuable. The contracts of these two shops are set until the end of this year, and the rent has been collected. My uncle, you will not be able to collect the rent until next year."
Zhu Yun explained it very clearly, and Wu Shigong was very satisfied after hearing it. He admired Zhu Yun a little, because she vaguely had the shadow of a modern white-collar worker, an office lady. The only regret was that she actually wanted to grab the toilet.
Wu Shigong then ordered: "You guys have put these things away. Then Zhuangzi, when will you send a manager to check on the situation? From now on, we will manage it together with the Zhuangzi in Xue Mansion. I won't worry about that. Zhuyun, you
I'll copy the addresses of those two shops later and put them in my purse. I'll go take a look when I have time and see what's going on."
After a while, the maids came over and helped Wu Shigong and Xue Yufei wash and sleep. It should be said that Wu Shigong himself has a very strong adaptability. He has traveled through time for more than half a month, and he is basically familiar with the living customs of the Ming Dynasty.
I'm used to it. I'm just not used to people going to bed so early at that time. At that time, it was basically equivalent to modern times of seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Everyone had gone to bed. Of course, they got up very early too. This made
In modern times, Wu Shigong, who is accustomed to enjoying nightlife, is a little miserable.
While washing his feet, Wu Shigong discovered that the maids who were washing Xue Yufei's feet over there in the room were whispering around Xue Yufei. He thought to himself: It must be some little maids who are washing Xue Yufei's feet.
In front of me, I complained about what happened in the afternoon.
He lowered his head and asked Xiuzhu, who was washing his feet, "Are you here to serve me tonight?"
Xiu Zhu immediately replied aggrievedly: "Master, no. It's Zhu Yun. She said she is the head maid, so she has to be in line on the first day."
"It's all the same." Wu Shigong smiled and comforted, "it will be your turn tomorrow."
Xiuzhu pouted and nodded.
"You, after arriving at the Xue Mansion, you need to make some more friends to talk to. Young Master, I will have an errand soon, and I may have less time at home in the future. In fact, those maids are pretty good, but they are a bit petty.
." Wu Shigong secretly added in his heart: In fact, which woman is too small-minded? Wu Shigong wants to try his best to unite the maids and avoid conflicts.
Xiuzhu nodded again, thinking to himself: Everyone else is easy to talk to, except that Zhu Yun.
After washing up, Wu Shigong and Xue Yufei lay on the bed. Wu Shigong let Xue Yufei lean against him and put his right hand around her waist. He gently touched Xue Yufei's lower abdomen with his palm a few times and asked, "It still hurts now."
?"
"Yeah!" Xue Yufei nodded, "A little bit more."
"Then you should go to bed early today. You must be tired after staying up so late last night."
"Actually, I actually took a nap in the afternoon." Xue Yufei said with a smile.
"Didn't your mother-in-law ask you to chat with her?"
Xue Yufei laughed out loud and cutely shrank her little head down. "Mother saw that I was yawning all the time, so I asked me to sleep at her place for a while."
"Then let's just lie down and talk for a while."
"Yes." "I heard that your husband gave Zhuyun and the others an inkstone each. Zhuyun and the others don't understand what your husband meant by giving this thing."
"Oh, the meaning is very simple. These four maids were bullying Xiuzhu at that time, so I warned them. If they bully them again, I will hit them with an inkstone." Wu Shigong felt that Xue Yufei's body was a little tight in his arms.
He stroked it a few times quickly and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, of course I am joking. My husband, I have been dependent on Xiuzhu since I was a child, so I am somewhat partial to Xiuzhu. Xiuzhu is also pitiful. When I get here, my life is different.
She's familiar with her, and there's no one to talk to. From now on, as the mistress, you should take care of Xiuzhu, so that the little maids like them don't make trouble anymore."
"Yeah. Actually, Zhuyun and the others are also very good."
"I know. I know. I won't do anything to them."
After a while, Wu Shigong asked: "My father-in-law said: He found a job for me. Does Fei'er know what the job is?"
"I don't know either. I'll take the time to go to my mother tomorrow and ask her. I just don't know if she knows. The Marquis rarely talks about official matters at home. However, don't you think my husband will no longer take the scientific examination?"
Yet?"
Why were people in the Ming Dynasty so enthusiastic about the imperial examination?
"Do you hope that, my husband, I will come to you wearing the No. 1 Scholar uniform and riding a white horse?"
"Hehehe, how did your husband know?"
How could Wu Shigong not know? In modern times, this scene and the plot of sending nine hundred and ninety-nine roses have been overused in TV dramas. However, Wu Shigong still thinks that he should send nine hundred and ninety-nine condoms.
Affordable.
"My husband, I'm really not a student. However, now that I have an errand, I will definitely do it well. I have to support my family, and it's very stressful."
"I believe in my husband."
Wu Shigong's hand gradually climbed up the peak, gently twisting the peak with his fingers. Xue Yufei's breathing gradually became faster, and her whole body became hot. She turned around and said to Wu Shigong: "Husband, husband...
…”
"Faier, is your body okay?"
"It's okay, I just need to bear with it."
"Then I'll be gentle."
"Um."
After the tender first night, the young couple spent a warm second night.
Zhuyun was lying on the small bed in the outer room with her eyes wide open and couldn't fall asleep. Her small hands tightly grasped the edge of the quilt. Listening to the noise in the inner room, she thought to herself: My uncle is so strong, once
It's endless again, and the lady can't stand it anymore. Huh! By then, even if my body hurts a little, I won't let Xiuzhu, the vixen, succeed.
