"Huh?!So you can make such a big extra money?!"

Qin Hanzhen knew that Zhao Mo had received a sum of 30,000 taels of silver, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhao Mo smiled and said, "Isn't it? The little aunt and grandmother of the Wang family are smart people, and they can guess that I am behind the family affair between her and the second uncle, and in order to seal up, I found the second aunt of Qin to send me such a large amount of hush money. In fact...... Even if she didn't give me money, I wouldn't tell me about it. The second uncle doesn't have a good attitude towards me, if he knows that I fulfilled their marriage, maybe how can he be suspicious, why bother looking for trouble?"

Qin Hanzhen thought for a while: "The eldest granddaughter of the Wang family probably understands this, but she still has to seal your mouth." After all, after she married into the Liao Palace, she became your aunt. With the relationship between the two of you, who knows when she will turn her face? If you reveal the truth at that time, won't she be in trouble? Anyway, she has no shortage of silver in her hand, and spending 30,000 taels to block your mouth will also buy her a little time. As long as she conceives a child as soon as possible after passing the door, or Zhao Li successfully gets the position of the prince, her position will naturally be stable, and she doesn't have to worry about anything else. With her net worth, she can afford to spend this little money to buy peace. ”

Zhao Mo said: "If she thinks so, it may not be smart." Even if her position is stable in the future, it doesn't mean that she won't be constrained by me. Not to mention anything else, just the news I heard from the third uncle, I knew that the Liao Wangfu didn't know that she had such a large amount of marriage. I don't think she will let her husband's family know all of this dowry, after all, she still has to keep a part of it, in case her parents and brother are in a bad situation in the future, they can help her. If the princess is told to know, as soon as she enters the door, she will ask her to hand over the dowry to her mother-in-law or husband. ”

Qin Hanzhen said: "That's probably because she inquired clearly and knew that you were a decent gentleman and wouldn't be greedy for her money." But I was quite surprised, I didn't expect the Wang family to be so down, and there was still so much property. I didn't seem to have heard that the dowry of the royal family was very rich. ”

Zhao Mo said: "Grandma Wang's family was famous for being rich and powerful in the early years, otherwise she would not have become the daughter-in-law of the royal family, but later her father died, and the family had no successor, so it declined." The old man in Beijing, there should be many people who remember the grand occasion of her ten-mile red makeup when she got married. She is rich, and it is estimated that everyone in the Wang family knows her. She also knows in her own heart, trying to have wealth, but losing power, no one knows whether this wealth can be kept. When the Wang family was in the past, they also did this kind of thing to other families, and the door was cleared. Even if no one does anything to them, they will be suspicious of themselves.

There are also rumors that Uncle Wang's health is not very good, he has been sick for a long time before, and he doesn't know when he won't be able to hold on. At that time, the orphans and widows in the family will not be able to support the door for the younger brothers, and they will not be cheaper than the people in the other rooms? While Uncle Wang is still alive, Grandma Wang will give her daughter a large amount of money as a dowry from the dowry, and then let her daughter marry into a prominent palace, how can she keep a part of her property and not let people take it away. It's just the Liaowang Mansion......

Zhao Mo paused and smiled mockingly: "No matter what, they won't starve to death after all." If you can really hide a sum of money, it will be the creation of my future second aunt. ”

Qin Hanzhen pouted and said: "The Wang family has been prosperous for so long and has done so many bad things, and now it is only retribution." This money should be regarded as compensation for the harm they made to you in the past. You can collect it with peace of mind, there is nothing to say, even if you use it to supplement the cost of building the county palace. ”

Zhao Mo's spirit perked up: "I also have this intention! With this silver, plus the money allocated by the Zongren Mansion, I can build our new palace more comfortably." Fix up the floor heating and fire walls that you talked about before, and repair the clean room and bathroom, use the kind of tap water you mentioned, clean it up, and have a bath where you can soak in hot water in the winter. That way we won't be afraid of the cold in winter!"

It sounds very appealing, but can you not be in front of your fiancée? Ancient people were more reserved, and this kind of topic seems to be a bit taboo.

Qin Hanzhen glanced at his grandfather Qin Bai with some uneasiness, and he didn't know if Zhao Mo was speaking louder, which attracted his attention, he seemed to be looking at them frequently, maybe he heard Zhao Mo's words.

Zhao Mo coughed lowly and glanced at her with a smile: "I really don't think that as long as my grandfather can't hear it, you are still willing to talk to me about these things?"

Qin Hanzhen glared at him: "Are you deliberately teasing me? When did you learn to be so frivolous?" Besides, what does it matter about these topics? Isn't it just the installation of daily life facilities? It's just that the ancient people were more improper!

The unserious ancient man Zhao Mo was smiling evilly at Qin Hanzhen: "Where is it frivolous? I'm discussing things with you seriously." Now that the annex has been repaired, it's time to start construction on the county king's mansion. I'm telling people to see when we're going to move to another courtyard, and we'll be closer by then. I was wondering if I should ask them to open a small door in the wall before the craftsmen had yet to leave, so that I could get between the courtyard and yours. ”

Qin Han gave him a blank look: "You go and ask my grandfather to see if he will nod? Without his consent, do you think you can open the door on the wall? I can tell you, my father and cousin are about to return to Beijing, if you know that there is a disciple with a bad heart, beware of them driving you out into the street, when the time comes, you will lose face as the king of Suning County, don't blame my father and cousin for being unkind." ”

Zhao Mo winked at her: "That's not good." After all, this disciple is your future husband, and your father-in-law and cousin can't be so ruthless, right?"

Qin Hanzhen snorted lightly and scolded in a low voice: "Your relationship with me, my father nodded, and my cousin hasn't expressed his opinion yet." He's about to arrive in the capital, so let's see what he has to say. ”

Zhao Mo said: "I'm not afraid, Lord Wu used to like me a lot." Where else in the world can I find a more suitable husband for my cousin?"

This man's skin is really getting thicker. Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but roll his eyes, and then told him to get down to business: "When I rebuilt this yard and put water on it, the craftsman had a final plan. I see that they draw quite clearly, and they have been using it well in the past few years, so I'll give you the drawings when I go back, and you can find someone to study them yourself. If we can build the water supply and water supply of the entire county palace, we may be able to spread the experience in the future, and we can also contribute to the cause of improving environmental sanitation in Dazhao. ”

Zhao Mo didn't understand what he heard, but he still smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, cousin." I will definitely let them study it carefully! If it is used well, the cost is not expensive, and the palace may be able to use it. I will ask the craftsmen on the other side of the fiefdom to also rebuild the county king's mansion in the same way, so that when we go back to live in the future, we can live more comfortably and cleanly. ”

Qin Hanzhen nodded solemnly and agreed very much. She has endured it for so many years, and it is easy to live a life of clean bathroom facilities again, but she does not plan to use the old toilet tub again after marriage.

While the two were talking, Uncle Hu happily took a letter and rushed into the garden to report: "Master Hou, Uncle Wu has sent a letter!"

Qin Bai was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Uncle Hu hurriedly said: "No, I have already arrived in Tongzhou, and it is estimated that I will be able to arrive tomorrow." Uncle Wu took a boat into Beijing with Lord Huang's family, and the checkpoints were very smooth along the way, so he had already arrived in Tongzhou at this time. It's just that it's getting late, and the Huang family has a lot of luggage, so it's too late to enter the city, so they plan to stay in Tongzhou for one night and enter Beijing again tomorrow. Uncle Wu couldn't leave them to come back first, so he ordered someone to send a letter into the city first and report a message to Mrs. Hou!"

Qin Bai said with a smile: "I guessed that they were on the same road, and maybe they would enter Beijing together, but I didn't expect to really guess it! It's late at night, and it's really not good to hurry, so it's nothing to let them stay in Tongzhou for one night." Can you tell your wife about it? She will be very happy when she hears the news!"

Uncle Hu said: "My wife has already gone to report the news, and my wife must be very pleased." Master Hou, do you want to send someone to clean the guest house again? Besides, now that the day is getting colder and colder, and it's already October, do you want to burn the kang? Or do you want to burn a few charcoal basins first?"

Qin Bai said: "Let's burn the kang first, and prepare a few charcoal basins." Shaoying has lived in the south for a few years, and when she returns to Beijing, she is afraid that she is not used to this climate. ”

Uncle Tiger happily took the order and left. Qin Hanzhen pulled Zhao Mo to Qin Bai's side, and Qin Bai said to her happily: "Do you hear me? Your cousin is coming back soon, and Ming'er will be home!"

"I hear you. Qin Hanzhen was also very happy, "I originally thought that he and Lord Huang wouldn't be able to catch up with the Halloween, but I didn't expect to arrive before the Halloween." It hadn't snowed heavily, it wasn't too cold, and they weren't too offended on the road. ”

Qin Bai couldn't sit still: "I have to ask someone to go to Wang's house and ask, when will Wang Fulin and them arrive? They came from the northwest, and they suffered more on the way than Shaoying." He simply took Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo back to the front courtyard. Niu Shi was also happy, and said to them: "I just ordered the kitchen to make Shaoying's favorite dishes and soups." Start preparing tonight, as soon as he enters the mansion, he will be able to eat hot!"

While rejoicing, Niu also remembered his eldest son: "When will Brother Ping come to Beijing? ”

Qin Hanzhen said: "Grandmother, my father is coming back from Guangzhou, and the distance is at least half the distance than my cousin's return from Jinling, where can I arrive so quickly? Even if I take a sea boat, it depends on the weather, and it would be good to be able to arrive a year ago." ”

Niu Shi said angrily: "Then can our family spend the New Year together?"

That being said, everyone was happy. Zhao Mo couldn't be more clever, seeing that Qin Bai and the Niu family were in a good mood, he felt that the opportunity could not be lost, and he would not come again, so he took the opportunity to make a request: "Grandfather, grandmother, my courtyard has been repaired, and I just asked someone to clean it up yesterday, and I haven't put the furniture out yet." I don't know how to do this, I wonder if I can ask my cousin to accompany me to take a look and help me come up with an idea? If there is anything lacking, while it is not too cold today, I can also let the craftsman quickly make up for it. ”
