"Erlang, Erlang, I can't bear this day any longer."
Mrs. Cheng Er said, she stopped crying at home and looked very angry.
"The Zhou family is sincere to my dear girl."
Mr. Cheng Er remained sullen and silent.
Ten thousand guan!
As a low-level local official, his monthly salary is only ten guan. Of course, if he really relied on ten guan, he would have starved to death, but if all the money is taken into account, this ten thousand guan will not be enough in a few years.
Earned.
Ten thousand yuan! The Zhou family is really rich! Just throw it to this fool!
"Did you really build houses for those people?" he asked.
"I don't know whether it will be given to those people, but we are really building a house." Mrs. Cheng Er said, gritting her teeth anxiously, "What kind of house are we building! We have so many houses, it would be better to buy a shop to make money.
!”
Ten thousand guan! This is 10,000 guan!
"No, you have to comfort her quickly and coax her back before she is really covered," Mrs. Cheng Er said.
Mr. Cheng Er's complexion turned darker.
"What a joke! It's not enough for you to ask Qiniang to coax her, you also ask me to coax her too! I am her father," he said, flatly refusing.
"To coax her is to coax the Zhou family, to coax her into a good marriage..." Mrs. Cheng Er said, and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, I forgot to reply to the Qin family! Come on, come on, don't
Can’t wait for them to leave.”
She said and stood up.
"I don't care, it's already like this. I can't let my daughter marry the Wang family! I'm going to see the Qin family right now."
Master Cheng Er was hesitant.
"Then, is it okay to say goodbye to the Qin family like this?" he said.
"Why not! Your daughter, you have the final say in her marriage, and what others say doesn't matter." Mrs. Cheng Er said, while she hurriedly asked the maid to wash her face, comb her hair and change clothes before leaving. She did not forget to say, "Go and coax her."
mother."
Ten thousand guan…
Mr. Cheng Er scoffed.
"It's more than 10,000 yuan! Erlang, you have to take a long-term view!" Mrs. Cheng Er turned around and said.
Mr. Cheng Er sat silently and stopped talking, his expression changing.
"Only ten thousand strings!"
On the other side, Mr. Cheng once again angrily overturned a few cases.
A clanking sound spread to the yard.
"There is no shortage of firewood in the kitchen today..." Two servant girls in the yard whispered behind the scenes.
The maid in front coughed and looked at them with a hint of warning. The two hurriedly shrank their heads and lowered their eyes.
"The Zhou family can throw it away as they wish. Do we still feel bad?" Mr. Cheng said.
Ten thousand guan…
Mrs. Cheng put her hand on her heart and remained silent.
It really hurts a bit.
"Forget it, she can make trouble as much as she likes. Do we, the elders, have to make trouble like her?" She finally said, exhaling, "It's just for the past few days. The energy has passed. Next month
Just get married, that's it, you won't waste much of this time."
Even if it's all wasted, it doesn't matter. It's just 10,000 guan, so it's nothing. It's not from their family anyway, so it's not too distressing, just a pity.
Things that involve money always make people have to worry about it. After all, having money may not necessarily mean everything goes as planned, but without money it is really difficult to do anything.
At this time, people from the Cheng family were not the only ones who were worried about money. Gao Tongshi in the capital was also frowning.
"Is it really that serious?" The imperial concubine held the stove in her hand and walked with him on the way to the Queen Mother's Palace wrapped in a big cloak. "Isn't it just the Taicang Road Transfer Department?"
"Our family has focused on the grain business in the past few years." Gao Tongshi said with a frown, twirling his beard and sighing, "This time we really suffered a big loss."
"Is Feng Lin so powerful? You didn't give him a message?" the imperial concubine said, with a bit of disapproval.
"This can be regarded as shooting oneself in the foot." Gao Tongshi said, "Originally, I asked Taicang Road to think of its own ideas, but in the end they actually wanted to kill people and set fire. After thinking about it, it didn't matter. But
It happened that the person was set free but not killed. Now the commotion is raging. Who dares to interrupt? Feng Lin is waiting for someone to come forward. He insists on biting a piece of meat to satisfy his hatred and fulfill his loyalty and integrity. Now the people are bragging about Feng Lin
The Qingtian of Qingtian has reborn. After completing this mission, it is hard to convince the public that he will not be rewarded. If I speak again at this time, it will simply be a stepping stone for him."
"That's really a big loss." The imperial concubine shook her head and said, "Didn't my grandfather even use most of the family property to stockpile grain in order to make a lot of money next year, just to wait for the sharp rise in Taicang Road prices this winter and the people to force the court to open a warehouse to equalize the price?
So what should we do now?”
Gao Tongshi exhaled.
"What else can we do, just stand still." He said, "At this time, there are many people watching every sign of trouble on Taicang Road, ready to profit from it, not to mention that our family is a thorn in everyone's side, not to mention others, Chen Shao and others
He probably didn't even sleep, just waiting for me to show off."
"Forget it then, don't cause such a big trouble." The imperial concubine said hurriedly, "If you lose the money, you will pay it. Don't implicate the eldest prince. Now His Majesty likes the second prince more and more, but we can't let anything happen to our family."
Gao Tongshi sighed and said nothing.
Of course he also knows that the eldest prince is important, but the money is also important...
Originally, when the official granary ran out of grain, he would be able to make a fortune on Taicang Road next spring and summer, and half of his family property could be exchanged for one and a half family property, but now it was all in vain.
My grandfather was so angry that he lay down at home.
"It's really unlucky. Who dropped that stone on the feet of those losers on Taicang Road!" He said angrily, "Passers-by! What a coincidence!"
While they were talking, they had already reached the front of the Queen Mother's Palace. When they heard the laughter of children, they stopped talking and looked over.
The second prince walked in the front with a smile, followed slowly by Prince Jin'an, and then the eldest prince followed with a straight face.
"..Brother, do you want to come with me?" The second prince looked back at Jin'an County Prince and asked.
"It's all your fault. Your Majesty tortured me about my homework yesterday, and now I have to wait for His Majesty to endorse it. How can I get there?" Prince Jin'an said.
The second prince chuckled and reached out to pat the arm of Prince Jin'an.
"Brother is not afraid," he said.
"I know how to memorize that lesson, who made you not memorize it for so long?" the eldest prince interjected.
"Your Highness, you can carry it very fast. I don't dare to compete with you. You take one day and I take three." Prince Jin'an touched his nose and said with a bitter smile.
The eldest prince immediately smiled happily.
"Your Majesty, Master Gao." Prince Jin'an saw the two people standing still and saluted hurriedly.
The eldest prince and the second prince also stood firm.
"Where are you going, Brother Six?" the imperial concubine asked with a smile.
"I'm going to pick some wintersweet flowers for my queen." The second prince raised a smile and replied, "Do you want it, my queen?"
The imperial concubine smiled and shook her head, reaching out to caress the second prince's shoulder.
"Brother Six is so filial and always remembers the Queen. That's great. Thank you Brother Six for giving me some too." She smiled.
The second prince nodded and left happily.
The prince of Jin'an County also bowed and walked away.
The eldest prince saluted and started to leave, but was stopped by the imperial concubine.
"Where are you going?" The imperial concubine lost her smile and looked at him and asked.
The eldest prince looked a little timid.
"I, I'm going to read... read my homework..." he said.
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the imperial concubine.
"What kind of homework do you want to read? Besides homework, what else do you do?" she shouted in a low voice.
The eldest prince shivered in fright, and Gao Tongshi shouted in excitement.
"Your Highness, the weather is nice today, why don't you and the second prince go pick some flowers and send them to Your Majesty." He reminded with a smile.
The eldest prince glanced at the imperial concubine timidly.
"Hurry up and go!" the imperial concubine raised her eyebrows and shouted, reaching out to poke his forehead, "You can't even compare to a child's mind, you are so stupid!"
The eldest prince looked a little flustered and wanted to cry but did not dare to follow the instructions and chase the second prince.
The imperial concubine exhaled a bit gloomily.
"Okay, let's teach the children slowly. This is because our eldest prince is pure and upright." Gao Tongshi said.
The imperial concubine snorted and wanted to say something, but the people in the palace had already come out to greet her. They stopped talking and walked in.
The prince of Jin'an County on the side looked away and took a step forward.
"Your Highness, do you want to go out today? When Your Majesty is happy with this, let's go out for a walk?" the chamberlain said with a smile.
The prince of Jin'an County was in a state of decline.
"There's no point in going out," he said.
"Your Highness, you haven't left the palace since the Cheng family's wife left." The chamberlain said, "How boring it is."
"It's not boring, it's quite good." Prince Jin'an said.
The waiter couldn't help laughing.
"Why are you laughing? I know what you are thinking." King Jin'an glanced at him and said, throwing his sleeves behind him, "Yes, there was no such person before. I felt bored in the palace, but it was fun when I went out. Then I recognized this person.
This is especially true for people, so now that she is gone and I can't see her when she goes out, it doesn't matter to me whether she is in the palace or outside the palace."
The waiter nodded and still smiled.
"You don't understand these things." Prince Jin'an glanced at him, waved his hand and said, "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. It doesn't matter whether we see you or not, and it doesn't matter whether I go out or not."
After he said that, he quickened his pace and threw away the waiter.
The waiter at the back smiled even more.
"I really don't understand. It seems that these words have nothing to do with this matter." He smiled and thought of something again, "I just don't know how that lady feels now? But is it the same whether it is or not?"
………………..
"Madam, this is the dowry list, and this is the document for the shop and the land."
Manager Cao pushed over some documents.
"When I came here, I was afraid that my wife might need it, so I asked me to bring it with me."
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded and did not reach out to pick it up.
"In that case, I'm getting married now, so go and give me some money," she said.
As expected, it was so clean and neat that I had to grab it directly.
I really didn’t expect that this young lady would take action on the dowry so quickly. It seems that this young lady doesn’t care about the money. Did the Cheng family really offend her this time?
Banqin said that the lady is in a bad mood, why is she in a bad mood?
Manager Cao shook his head and stopped thinking about it. It was difficult to guess a woman's heart, let alone what this young lady was thinking. What he wanted to know was that the Cheng family was in a bad mood when they bumped into the lady, so they were going to be unlucky this time.
If you go to ask for it like this, it will definitely not be easy to get it, but there is no need to worry, since the lady has raised her sickle, she will not come back empty.
