"Let's just say Zhuqing is the most sensible. Which girl in our village can compare with her?" Others in the village couldn't help but join in the fun.
"That's right, not to mention our village, even the entire Changshan County, there is no one who can compare with our Qingya!" Sister-in-law Guihua has given birth to a big fat boy. She is staying with everyone and looking at the bamboo.
Qing's expression was full of pride.
"Aunt Lanfen, I remember Qingya is almost fifteen during the Chinese New Year, right? Are you concerned about her marriage? Do you have any clues now?" A neighbor's sister-in-law couldn't help but mention Zhuqing's inexplicable headache.
.
Wang glanced at Zhu Qing and saw that she was resisting, but it was rare that she did not agree with her: "Don't worry, I will listen to her about Qingya's marriage. Now that she is back, she has a lot to do.
There’s no need to worry about this for a while. When she comes up with something, I won’t have to worry about it.”
Wang's words made Zhuqing breathe a sigh of relief.
Others also laughed: "That's right, Qingya has met the emperor! You have to look for her carefully! Ordinary people are really not worthy of our Qingya!"
Everyone was busy at Zhuqing's house until very late, and then they dispersed after all the fun.
Zhuqing came back this time and was really tired after traveling all the way.
When I woke up the next day, it was already very bright.
"Qingya, come and have breakfast!" Wang came in and saw her daughter awake, and immediately greeted her in a gentle voice.
"Well, by the way, why didn't Zhushan see him?" Zhuqing slept all night, and only now did she remember that she seemed to have not seen her brother from yesterday to now.
"Zhushan went to the county seat to catch up with the exam. He insisted on passing the Boy's Examination and came back! When he heard that you were coming back, he said that passing the Boy's Examination was the best gift for you. It just so happened that the county exams are taking place these days." Wang
Shi said with a smile.
"This child!" Zhu Qing was relieved, and then asked: "Is his health much better now?"
"Much better! He took the conditioning pills Mr. Mo gave him, and his health has improved greatly. Now he still insists on practicing martial arts with the strong men in the village every day, but he has grown much stronger." Speaking of her son, Wang said with a smile.
Proud and happy.
"You know Zhushan is a sensible person." Zhuqing felt relieved after hearing this.
She quickly dressed and got up, ate the breakfast carefully prepared by Wang, and then took Wang with her to sort out the gifts she had brought back from the capital.
"Mom, this is the land deed awarded to me by the imperial court, totaling one hundred acres, in Nan'an County. From now on, we will go over and buy a small farm and ask a few people to help take care of it. And all these gold and silver are from the royal family.
We will keep whatever was given to us." Seeing the land deeds that Zhu Qing took out, Wang was shocked.
"Qingya, there are so many fields! These lands were rewarded to you by the emperor? Will they all belong to our family from now on?" Mrs. Wang was a little unbelievable.
Then she seemed to remember something and said: "Qingya, keep this land deed! You paid for it with your life! It will be your dowry from now on! My parents are not capable. If you marry into a rich family in the future, we will
But I can’t buy you much dowry! If you earn it yourself, you should take it well. You must keep it well!”
In Wang's current understanding, her daughter has already met the emperor and has become a well-known person in the county. She will definitely marry into a wealthy family in the future. However, her family has a weak foundation and Zhuqing is not the one to marry.
When the time comes, I'm afraid I won't be able to produce anything good. So it's okay to use this hundred acres of land as a dowry for my children.
A warm current surged through Zhuqing's heart. Wang was really a rare and good mother. She would consider her children in everything.
"Mom, don't refuse. Aren't I not married yet? This hundred acres of land was awarded to me by the emperor, and it was also awarded to our family! If I do a good job in refining alcohol in the future, our family will
Not to mention earning a hundred acres of land, even a thousand acres, that's not necessarily the case! When the time comes, are you planning to get rid of me with a hundred acres of land? I won't do it!" Zhuqing doesn't have much.
Selfishness.
If she has it, then naturally her family has it too. Now that her family has not fully grown up, she cannot just put all the 100 acres of land in her own hands and watch her parents still struggle there.
"That has to be put in your name! I will always give it to you from now on!" Wang seemed to be unusually insistent on this.
Zhuqing didn't know why she was so stubborn, but she didn't want to make her unhappy, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, okay, but I want to give the proceeds to my family."
The gold and silver were packed in boxes. It was the first time that Wang saw so much gold and silver, and her hands trembled.
"Qingya, how do we hide them?"
"Mom, don't worry. Don't we have a cellar in our house? Put it directly in the cellar, together with our father's wine vat, no one will think of it." These Zhuqing had thought about it before they came back and also explained it.
Girls who come back, don’t take out the things given by the emperor easily and expose them to your eyes.
"Mom, I bought these fabrics from Yun Xiangrong, the largest cloth store in Beijing. Take a look and see which ones you like, and we will use them to make clothes." Zhu Qing took out all the fabrics he bought at Yun Xiangrong.
.
"So many good materials? Qingya, why did you buy so much?" Wang's eyes were dazzled by the colorful fabrics.
Zhuqing turned over it and found that there were a lot more.
"Hey, we didn't buy these materials before!" Zhu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then realized that these good clothing materials must have been given by Princess Yuzhu later. In order to fear that they would be embarrassed, he deliberately did not tell them.
"These are gifts from Princess Yuzhu." Zhu Qing gently stroked the fine silks and satins and couldn't help but be moved.
"Qingya, Princess Yuzhu is really nice to you!" Ms. Wang didn't dare to touch the fabrics. She was afraid that her hands would be too rough and the good materials would be scratched.
"Well, let's put these clothes away properly. We can also make one or two outfits to wear during the holidays." Zhu Qing thought about how she had to do things when she went home and couldn't use good clothes. But
Now that I think about it, I'm afraid her social circle will expand in the future, and by then dressing up appropriately will be a must.
Besides, as the living standard of the family increases, these clothing materials will no longer be inaccessible. Thinking about it this way, it is quite calm.
After she took out the jewelry she bought, Ms. Wang finally calmed down a lot.
"These jewelry are so beautiful! Qingya, you should also wear some in the future, don't be too plain all day long." Wang is really keen on dressing up her daughter.
"Well, mother, you should wear it too! Do you like this hairpin? The female official at Princess Yuzhu's place said it's just right for you at your age." Zhu Qing took out the hairpin that he specially selected for Wang.
