Chapter 186: Peace of Mind


The He family didn't know anything about the Hu and Chen families.

Since He Gong went on a study tour, the He family was still living a leisurely life.

And because the third girl's wedding was this year, the furnishings were already gone, including beds, tables, chairs, cabinets, and a few stools. , although it is not a precious wood, it is also made of pine, and it is all painted.

Because the courtyard of Anian is spacious, it is temporarily placed in the east wing of another courtyard.

He Zijin followed and took a look and marveled, "There is even a toilet."

Mrs.

Shen smiled, "Of course."

In fact, not all families have such a complete dowry.

Only families with a small amount of wealth and sophisticated families will buy such things for their daughters.

Although the third girl's surname is not He, she has been obedient and progressive in the He family over the years, and got a good marriage.

Mrs.

Shen is not a stingy person, so she naturally paid attention to the dowry for the third girl.

Mrs.

He was also happy when she saw the new furniture.

She pointed at Mrs.

Shen proudly and said, "It's better than the dowry you had at that time, but not as good as mine."

The third girl was so moved that she couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

She thought about her great-aunt's temper and outspokenness that made people laugh or cry.

She was a mother-in-law and had a daughter-in-law like her cousin.

Sure enough, Mrs.

Shen was not unhappy at all, she just smiled, "How can I compare with my mother?

My mother's dowry is one of the best in Bishui County even if I take it out now.

My mother's dowry back then was hundreds of dollars.

How can it be compared to an acre of land?”

"A full three hundred acres of high-quality paddy fields" He Lao Niang is quite proud of.

Her dowry is one of the few in Bishui County.

This was her own dowry.

Later, when her daughter got married, she gave her 150 acres, which was also a great deal.

Speaking of her own time, Mrs.

He had a lot to say, "I still have several boxes, all of which are high-quality camphor wood boxes.

The best materials for clothes can be put in them.

These are all passed down from ancestors.

It's up to me."

My grandfather also served as an official when he was young, but he left early.

Alas, In the past, the Jiang family was one of the best in Furong County.

It was a pity that my father was such an unworthy descendant.

He was so ignorant that he got a prodigal wife and gave birth to a prodigal son, who has been ruined from generation to generation. , you can’t get any good things from your ancestors.”

The third girl said, "My aunt raised me, and she is also my ancestor Yu Ze."

Mother He said, "It's all up to you."

It's easy to make a living, but it's all up to you to grow up to this point.

Seeing that the topic had gone downhill, He Zijin changed his subject and said, "To be honest, the furniture in my house is the best.

There are nanmu, jujube, and mahogany, not to mention camphor.

I bought it the other day."

The two chairs are still from Huanghuali.”

He curled her lips and said, "Don't waste your money by buying me those rags at home."

She didn't know what her hobby was, but she liked tinkering with old furniture when she had nothing to do.

Forget about He Zijin's roomful of things.

It's not that He Lao Niang looks down on old furniture.

As He Zijin said, the wood is good.

What He Lao Niang feels sad about is the money spent to buy the old furniture.

There is no shortage of furniture at home, so it would be better to save money to purchase land.

Thinking of the land purchase, Mother He said, "Don't forget to give him land for the harvest in A Nian's field this year."

He Zijin said, "It's hard to buy a whole piece of land.

If it is scattered, three acres here, five acres there, I thought, if I save it for a year, I can buy one if there is a suitable shop in the county."

If you keep it and rent it out, you will still get a stable income.”

"It's okay."

He Lao Niang said, "If someone in the family wants to start a small business in the future, they won't have no place."

He Lao Niang asked the third girl again that most of the bride price given by the Hu family was bought for the third girl, and there were about a hundred acres of land.

Once the land was purchased, the third girl took care of it herself.

The third girl said, "I also want to save it first."

"Well, if you get married this year, you will have some living money in your hands."

Mrs.

He said again, "After saving for a few years, it is better to buy land and pass it on to children and grandchildren in the future.

As long as you are not a prodigal and have land, you will have a good life."

Get by.”

All three girls are welcome.

After looking at the furniture, the family went back to the corridor in the A-Nian courtyard to talk about the third girl’s dowry.

On the one hand, the furniture was laid out, and the clothing materials had to be sorted out in advance.

In addition to buying them in the state capital, He Lao Niang also had some clothing materials.

The son was given to the third girl, and other scattered things were all ready.

Doing the math, there are more than twenty people.

It's not comparable to Chen Erniu back then, but it's much better than Shen's back then.

It can also be seen that the He family's life is really becoming more and more prosperous.

While everyone was talking happily, Wanzi came over and said someone was coming to the family.

He Zijin asked, "Who is coming?"

Wanzi said, "It's said that he is a steward of the palace and came to our house to inquire about Hua'er."

Mrs.

He and Mrs.

Shen were a little confused.

They didn't remember which palace the palace belonged to, so they asked, "Which one has the surname Wang?"

There are many people surnamed Wang in Bishui County.

In fact, Wanzi couldn't make trouble with the Qing Dynasty.

She added, "My surname is not Wang, but Shu."

The third girl immediately came to her senses and said, "It must be the Prince of Shu's Mansion."

The family hurried over.

Fortunately, they were neighbors in front and back, so they returned home very quickly.

He Gong was not at home, and Alie, Ani, and Jiang Ren went to study and take care of business.

Now it was He Lao Niang who had to come forward.

Madam He looked at the steward in green clothes who had arrived.

Of course, there were several others who were the steward's followers and did not follow him in.

Mrs.

Shen asked Wanzi to bring tea.

The steward is very young, he looks about fifteen or sixteen years old.

He is not very old, has good looks, is gifted with smiling eyes, and is very friendly.

He first took out his waistband to prove his identity, and introduced himself as Luo, a third-class member of the Shu Palace.

Steward, come over and buy green chrysanthemums from the He family.

He Lao Niang looked at He Zijin and said, "It's still several months before we can leave the flowers."

Her flowers haven't bloomed yet.

Manager Luo took a sip of tea and then put it down.

He behaved neatly and said, "This does not hinder it.

My young prince saw the green chrysanthemums in your mansion last year and liked them very much.

He is thinking of ordering a few pots this year and sending them to the imperial capital.

Be filial to your elders.

I just want to talk to my superiors first.

I don’t know what my superiors want.”

What do you think How can Madam He was stunned when she saw the steward of Prince Shu's Mansion for the first time.

She still felt unsteady at this moment.

Seeing that Madam He had no idea, He Zijin took over and said, "To be honest with Guanshi Luo, these flowers are not easy to grow.

We only get eight pots every year, and two more have to be sent to the chrysanthemum fighting party."

Manager Luo was very talkative, "Then the remaining six basins will be ordered by the palace."

The He family could only say "yes".

Manager Luo put the banknote on the table and said, "Here is the deposit.

I will come over in August to move the flowers."

He Zijin pretended to be polite, "It's my family's honor that the young prince has taken a liking to our flowers.

How can we collect money?"

That's great.

I thought the prince was going to use his power to get it for free, but he didn't expect to give me the money back.

Manager Luo smiled, "Girl, you don't have to be polite.

Just take good care of the flowers and don't miss our young prince's business."

He Zijin immediately promised to serve the flower like his ancestors.

After Manager Luo finished speaking, he left.

Mrs.

Shen had already winked and asked Cui'er to bring out a purse and give Manager Luo some tea.

Manager Luo thanked him and left.

After the group of people left, Mrs.

He picked up the banknote and trembled immediately, "I'm a good boy!"

It turned out to be the palace.

The third girl smiled, "I thought he was a liar just now, but given so much money, it seems he must be real."

He Zijin wondered, "Is our family really so famous?"

Even the prince came to buy her flowers because of her fame.

Shen smiled, "It must be true."

This is real money, could it be fake?

Mrs.

He looked at the banknote carefully and asked Aunt Yu to put it away.

She didn't forget to say to He Zijin, "I'll give you a piece of land."

She also asked Mrs.

Zhou to buy fish tomorrow and make fish balls for He Zijin. eat.

After getting the money, Mrs.

He was very happy and said with a smile, "It's okay if you like to buy rags.

As long as you have the same merits."

He Zijin was speechless.

On the second day, He Zijin went to Chaoyun Temple.

Her family's social status is such that she, her whole family, are all country folk.

On the other hand, Taoist Priest Chaoyun was very particular about love.

Besides, there had been such a beautiful woman who had gone to Taoist Priest Chaoyun before, so he was definitely more knowledgeable than the He family.

He Zijin specifically told Taoist Priest Chaoyun about buying flowers, and showed Taoist Priest Chaoyun the Shu Prince's waistband that the steward took out yesterday to prove his identity, and then said, "It's so kind.

I'll return it."

I thought that to be in charge of the palace, not only to show off one's power, but also to show off one's breasts and protruding belly, with pride written all over one's face, it turned out that Manager Luo was extremely kind and gave me a large deposit, which I was prepared to give away for free.

Ready."

Taoist Chao Yun smiled, "It seems that you have good fortune this year."

He Zijin said, "Master, tell me, the young prince is only seven or eight years old, can he spend so much money to buy flowers?"

Even for the prince's palace, this is a huge amount.

Of course, He Zijin does not agree with this.

I'm sure she doesn't know how wealthy the palace is.

"Perhaps that's not exactly what the young prince meant.

This young prince is serving as a vassal on behalf of his father.

I heard you say that at his age, it's time to focus on studying.

There are subordinate officials in the palace, and these things are mostly related to official officials.

Arrangements."

Taoist priest Chaoyun said, "You just think the price offered by the palace is a bit high, don't you?"

He Zijin nodded, "Actually, even if the palace doesn't pay a penny, I don't dare to say anything."

Taoist priest Chao Yun smiled, "You don't understand this.

I know one thing.

Some years ago, there used to be a second-grade official who was sent back to the imperial capital with the view of being re-employed.

When he bought property in the imperial capital, He bought the house that was originally worth 10,000 taels for 5,000 taels.

People say they are in urgent need of money, but this is what happened to me.

Do you think that officialdom is about suppressing the people?

The Prince of Shu's palace is not short of money, so it's not a bad thing to be cautious."

He Zijin was also quite impressed by his conduct and said, "Didn't someone pay bribes in disguise to buy the house?"

"Most of the time it's a trap."

Daoist Chao Yun smiled.

He Zijin said, "But, even if he asks for nothing in Prince Shu's Mansion, I don't dare to do anything.

His family is a leader in the area, and there is no trap in this."

Taoist priest Chaoyun shook his feather fan and said, "I still don't understand.

The Prince of Shu is not willing to take advantage of this, let alone take the risk of giving it to others."

"I don't understand."

He Zijin asked honestly.

Taoist priest Chao Yun smiled, "If you don't understand, just don't understand.

Just accept it with peace of mind.

There is nothing strange about this matter."

"Then I'll feel at ease."

Taoist priest Chao Yun smiled.

He didn't say that He Zijin was careless.

On the contrary, he was not happy and confused when he saw the large sum of money.

He knew that he came to ask him.

According to He Zijin's background, he was quite a bit confused. keen.

Taoist Chao Yun smiled, "Just feel at ease."

He Zijin was really relieved.

She came to ask Taoist Chao Yun because Taoist Chao Yun has this quality in him, and what Taoist Chao Yun said can make people feel reassured.
