At the time of the draft, Jiao Wanwan felt that the Empress Dowager Song and Queen Wang were a little too casual, if they were talented women, they would be crowned talents, and if they were beauties, they would be named beauties, and they didn't take the draft seriously at all. But Jiao Wanwan herself hates things like aunts and concubines, so she doesn't care about these, since she has made up her mind to enter the palace, what is her position, she should have been mentally prepared. Second, after all, this is the harem of the eldest uncle, and she is a brother-in-law, so she can't interfere at all.

But seeing this white beauty today, Jiao Wanwan suddenly felt that the previous title was quite interesting. This white beauty is really a beauty, that look, it is almost comparable to that of Mrs. Flower, she is pregnant at this time, but she has not damaged her appearance, but she has a little more charm, and it makes people's hearts warm when she looks at it.

Entering the door, the white beauty saluted very elegantly, and without waiting for Queen Wang to call up, she stood up by herself, held her waist and smiled: "My sister has a body, I can't squat for a long time, please forgive my sister." ”

Queen Wang was expressionless, and raised her eyes to look at the maid beside her, who hurriedly walked over and personally moved the chair and put it behind the white beauty. The white beauty covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "It's still my sister's maid here who will look at her face, my palace maid there, if I can have Sancheng cleverness on my sister's side, I will be satisfied." ”

Queen Wang raised her eyebrows: "Then I'll send all the palace maids on your side first, and then you will go back and change to another batch of more clever ones?" ”

Bai Meiren's face stiffened, turned her head to look at Jiao Wanwan, and changed the topic stiffly: "This is the princess, right?" I've heard of the name for a long time, but I haven't had the opportunity to see it before, but now I see, the princess is very generous, is it possible, is it really close to Zhu and black to ink? ”

Jiao Wanwan was a little surprised: "Where do you start with this?" How did you know whether the people around me were red or black? ”

I probably didn't expect Jiao Wanwan to be so direct, and Bai Beauty's face froze again, do you want to say that she has inquired about Zhao Defang? The draft entered the palace and became the emperor's woman, but she inquired about Zhao Defang, do you want to live?

Jiao Wanwan couldn't help but glance at Queen Wang sympathetically, to be honest, she has always felt that this favored woman is still smarter and easier to deal with, like this stupid, she can't say a word, you can worry about her, lose your share, she still has a big belly, in case of a fuss, the embarrassment can be thrown outside the palace, and it is not easy to say it from the official family. Because he is stupid, he has no scruples, he has no rules in speaking and acting, he is not like a smart person, he can weigh gains and losses, he can consider the situation, he can only say what he can say, and he will not mention a word that he can't say.

It's really embarrassing to meet such a person who has no eyes, no brains, is still favored by the officials, and has a body.

Queen Wang couldn't help but smile bitterly, pinched her eyebrows, and made a helpless expression at Jiao Wanwan, the white beauty was really brainless, she didn't see Queen Wang's face at all, she touched a nail here in Jiao Wanwan, and turned her head to find Queen Wang to divert the topic: "I heard that some time ago, there was a cart of watermelons outside, I want to ask my sister, it's been a few days, why haven't I seen the shadow of the watermelon?" But my sister forgot that there is such a person in this palace? ”

Jiao Wanwan knew that watermelon was a relatively rare thing at this time, and it was passed down from the five generations at that time, and now it has not been planted in a large area, and there are only two or three cars sent into the palace every year, because it is relatively rare, the Empress Dowager Song also rewarded Jiao Wanwan several times.

However, this thing, the imperial doctor said that pregnant women don't eat much, so Jiao Wanwan can only eat one or two slices at a time, compared with the modern situation of holding half a watermelon and digging it with a spoon, it is really miserable.

"That's not something that pregnant women can eat much." Although Queen Wang said that she had no expression on her face, her tone was quite stable, but Bai Meiren was not a smart person, so she was immediately unhappy: "I don't like to listen to what my sister says, I know that the Queen Mother values the princess's belly very much, but she still rewarded two or three watermelons, why did she come to me and become a pregnant woman who can't eat it?" Could it be that the princess's belly is more expensive than my gold, and this child is stronger than mine? ”

This was not very good, and Jiao Wanwan's face immediately changed. Don't look at the identity of the white beauty, it is nothing to Jiao Wanwan, but the child in Jiao Wanwan's belly is Zhao Defang's, and the child in the white beauty's belly is Zhao Dezhao's.

Just say these two children, it must be Zhao Dezhao's child who is the most expensive, if the words of the white beauty are spread, it will become a prince who is not as good as the clan, if it is a cautious emperor, Zhao Defang will not want to have a good life in the future.

"What Bai Meiren said is not right, it is precisely because the child in your belly is expensive and is the blood of the official family, so the imperial sister-in-law will be more careful, unlike me, it is not expensive, but it is easy to feed." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, and the white beauty was a little proud: "You told the truth." ”

Queen Wang held her forehead, she couldn't listen to it anymore, when she was drafted, why didn't she see that this woman had no other benefits except for a face? It's good now, it's just a □□ annoyance, if you give birth to a son, and inherit the mind of the white beauty in the future, it's a disaster.

Thinking about the meaning revealed by the official family before, Queen Wang had a little plan in her heart, with such a stupid mother-in-law, her son also designated that she was not smart, so don't hug it and make herself upset.

The most feared thing is that this white beauty does not stop, with her head, she must not understand the truth that the child will be more expensive if the queen raises it, maybe because her son is taken away, she will make a big fuss for three days and a small fuss for five days, then this harem will really become a joke.

"Okay, okay, if you don't believe it, go back and let the imperial doctor explain to you, I'm busy here, I won't keep you more, you go back first, since you have a body, you can take care of it in your own palace, and give birth to a white and fat little prince in the future to make the official family like you more, you walk around like this, in case there is a bad pool, don't say that the official family will be disappointed in you, the queen mother and I can't spare you."

Queen Wang was out of sight and out of mind, and waved her hand to signal the white beauty to get out: "Didn't I say it before?" You don't have to come over to say goodbye, if you turn around and let me know that you're walking around again, I'll send the maid next to you, you know? ”

Bai Meiren was a little unwilling, but she was not smart but she was not stupid, and her status could still be clearly distinguished, and she saw that the maids around the queen were all eyeing her, so she had to reluctantly get up and leave.

Jiao Wanwan patted the back of Queen Wang's hand: "It's hard for you, it's not too early, I should go back, the affairs of the academy, if you think about it, whether you ask me to come in and say something, or let people come over and talk to me, it's okay, I don't force you, after all, you are also busy on weekdays, it's just that if you find something for yourself, you can't make a career?" ”

Queen Wang smiled: "No wonder Defang likes you very much, just this energy, I like it all." "It's vibrant, as if there's nothing difficult in the world.

didn't say much, let the maid beside her send Jiao Wanwan out of the palace, and Queen Wang began to think seriously about the affairs of this academy, if it was really just a name, it didn't seem to be a bad thing.

Just thinking about it, his arm was tugged, and when he turned his head, he saw his baby girl standing next to him with a piece of paper: "Mother, is my aunt gone?" Hey, I still want my aunt to help me see what I wrote, the fourth uncle is a great talent, and that aunt must be a talented woman. ”

Queen Wang sneered and laughed, just like Wan Niang, and a talented girl? No kidding, her handwriting is good at best.

After thinking about it for a day, early the next morning, Queen Wang asked Jiao Wanwan to enter the palace, saying that it was the matter of the honorary dean, but it was not true that she didn't do anything at all, and she had to do more publicity for Jiao Wanwan.

With the queen Wang coming forward, the few people who were originally more difficult to deal with were almost done without much effort. Soon, the staff was ready, and the Academic Affairs Department, the Admissions Department, the Logistics Department, the Office Department, the Personnel Department, the Finance Department, etc., were all established.

These things were there when I wrote the plan, and Zhao Defang thought it was interesting and comprehensive, so he copied them all in the men's college. By the way, now it can't just be said that it is a men's college and a women's college, it has to have a serious name.

Therefore, the men's college is called Chaoyang Academy, and the women's college is called Yinghua College.

When the door plaque was hung up, it was already the beginning of August, and in half a month, the autumn season would begin. At this time, Jiao Wanwan also received a letter, which was sent by Mrs. Jiao, saying that she was sending Jiao Zhongzhan to Beijing to take the exam.

Because of the previous Zhao Kuangyin cup of wine to release the military power, and then the later reuse of Wenchen, the military generals are slowly a little less valued, Jiao Jixun is a smart person, when the country is unstable, the military generals have a bright future, when the country is stable, it is better to be a civil minister than to be a military general. Therefore, I planned to let my two sons follow the path of Wenchen early on.

Zhao Dezhao succeeded to the throne for three months after opening Enke, Jiao Boyan participated in the autumn festival, and then in one go, even the middle of the people, Jinshi, and finally sought to be released, after marrying a wife, he went out of Beijing to take office.

Now it's Jiao Zhongzhan's turn, this time the autumn is going to end, if he can win, he will have to stay in the capital and wait for next year's spring. At the same time, because Jiao Zhongzhan is not young, it is time to marry a wife, so Mrs. Jiao wants to follow into Beijing, and by the way, inquire about the little ladies of the right age in the capital, so as to make plans for Jiao Zhongzhan.

Jiao Wanwan read the letter and hurriedly asked people to clean up the guest house in the house first. Although the Jiao family also has a yard in the capital, but there has been no owner for several years, although the house must be clean, but in the end it is not complete, the kitchen purchase or something, it must not have been arranged, so it is best to take it over and live for a few days.

Seeing that she was busy with her stomach, Zhao Defang said with a smile: "If you keep your mother-in-law for a few more days, seeing that you should give birth, if your mother-in-law can take care of you for a while, she will be more dedicated than those mothers-in-law and maids." ”

Jiao Wanwan thought about it, but still shook her head: "It's not good, I won't be born until October, and when the second brother finishes participating in the Autumn Festival, maybe my mother will have to take him to Xijing, staying here will drag down my mother's plan, and Zhongzhan's marriage should also be done." ”

Zhao Defang was a little interested: "Which little lady did you like?" ”

"My mother didn't say anything, let's talk about it when my mother comes." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, paused and asked, "Have you thought of the enrollment advertisement?" ”

Zhao Defang was slightly surprised: "Advertisement? ”

After tasting it carefully, he applauded: "These two words have a bit of meaning, advertise them widely, what do you have to build?" ”

Jiao Wanwan instantly remembered the classic sentence of the later generations, the excavator...... It's a pity that there is no excavator academy at this time. There are so many admissions advertisements, but all of them are not suitable, one is the content, the other is the era, modern things, there is always a feeling of being out of place at this time, and, like that, if you meet a man from New Oriental, you will marry it, this is simply shocking.

"Let me think about it." Jiao Wanwan waved her hand and said: "You have to think about it yourself, it's not my business alone, maybe I can synthesize it and come up with a better one?" ”

"Okay." Zhao Defang nodded in response, and Jiao Wanwan smiled again: "Before I entered the palace, my mother asked me about the affairs of the academy, fortunately, I am smart, and when I talk about the affairs of the academy, the imperial sister-in-law has already arranged the manpower, I just need to go over and take a look, otherwise, my mother will definitely not let me interfere in the affairs of the academy." ”

Zhao Defang reached out and touched her belly, and said with a smile: "When I go back and wait for my mother to know, I will definitely be angry." ”

"Isn't that you? When my mother knows, you can help me say good things. After a pause, he said: "Or, when the child is born, my mother will be happy when she sees the white and tender, and she will not care about me." ”

Xijing is not far from Bianliang, Jiao Wanwan sent someone to guard the city gate after receiving the letter, and after waiting for two or three days, she received Mrs. Jiao and Jiao Zhongzhan. Mrs. Jiao still looks very young as before, only slightly fatter and whiter.

Seeing Lamei beside Jiao Wanwan, Mrs. Jiao hurriedly waved her hand: "Your wife is not sensible, how can you follow the ignorance, where is there anyone who lives in my uncle's house, I have sent someone to clean up my yard before, and I can live when I go back, you go back and tell your wife, I will go to see her another day, and let her not run around with a stomach." ”

Lamei hurriedly smiled: "Madam, the prince also knows about this, and the prince also said, I am looking forward to you and Xiao Langjun going over, although the princess has an aunt to take care of her, but in the end it is not as good as her own mother, so the prince also specially instructed the maid, so that the maid must take Mrs. and Xiao Langjun over." ”

Jiao Zhongzhan was very arrogant, and he also missed his sister, so he pouted and said: "Mother, my sister and brother-in-law have a heart, let's go over and live for a day or two, we are not poor relatives who come to fight the autumn breeze, what is there to be embarrassed about." ”

Mrs. Jiao glared at him: "You kid, what nonsense are you talking about." ”

After hesitating, he couldn't help but want to see his daughter, so he led Jiao Zhongzhan over with the people from the palace. Jiao Wanwan had already gotten the letter, and originally wanted to greet her at the gate, but was dissuaded by Zhao Defang. had to stay at the second gate, and as soon as he saw Mrs. Jiao's figure, his eyes couldn't help but coax.

Although she is not the original owner, but for more than half a year, the Jiao family has been wholeheartedly devoted to her, and she is very fond of her, and she is not without conscience, and the friendship of the Jiao family has naturally been remembered in her heart. Besides, these years have not seen each other, and there are often letters and exchanges, and the relationship has not weakened.

Mrs. Jiao couldn't help crying, and looked at Jiao Wanwan carefully: "I've lost some weight, but it's better-looking, and my face looks good, it seems that the prince takes care of you very well, thank you Lord, we are such a little lady, the prince treats her well, that is, treats our Jiao family well, and our family up and down, we have to thank the prince for his kindness." ”

Zhao Defang hurriedly waved his hand: "Madame's words are serious, Wanniang is my mother after all, who can I treat her well if I don't treat her well?" It was my responsibility to take care of her, and I was worried before, for fear that my wife would think that I had not taken good care of Wanniang. ”

Jiao Zhongzhan was busy on the side and said: "Mother is really, you don't have to think about it, brother-in-law will definitely take care of my sister, you, just worry about it." Sister, didn't you write a letter some time ago, saying that you wanted to get some kind of playground? Can you tell me what this playground does? What's the fun? ”

Jiao Wanwan held her forehead, I haven't seen her for a few years, and she still has such a fun temperament.

"You definitely can't go." Jiao Wanwan waved her hand, and Jiao Zhongzhan looked depressed and hurt: "Why, I'm your own brother!" ”

"I'm going to build a children's playground, tell me yourself, how old are you?" Jiao Wanwan raised her eyebrows, a large playground, she didn't have the ability to do this, and she didn't dare to believe the ancient materials, if something went wrong in the middle, it would be a terrible thing. Therefore, it is easier to get a simple children's playground.

This is because she is about to give birth, so she thought about it. Otherwise, I really can't remember it.

Jiao Zhongzhan was heartbroken and made a sad look: "Sister, if you have a child, you don't want a younger brother?" ”

Mrs. Jiao couldn't help but slap him on the back of the head: "What an adult, what does it look like!" Stand up, won't you have autumn in a few days? Right now, your brother-in-law is a well-known talent in the capital, why don't you hurry up and ask for more advice? ”

Jiao Zhongzhan hurriedly saluted Zhao Defang: "Brother-in-law, ......"

Zhao Defang nodded directly: "Go back to the study, I will inspect your homework, but it's only been a few days, you don't have to worry too much, just do your best." ”

As he spoke, the crowd entered the inner courtyard. Jiao Wanwan had already prepared a banquet and invited Mrs. Jiao to take a seat, and Jiao Zhongzhan sat down. It's all your own family, so you don't have to worry about the rules of eating and sleeping, and chatting casually while eating.

Jiao Wanwan asked Mrs. Jiao about the physical condition of General Jiao and Mrs. Jiao, and asked the people in the second room, the eldest Langjun in the second room is already engaged, and he will get married at the end of the year, Jiao Wanwan was a little surprised: "I don't know, then this gift, I should also prepare it, when the eldest brother got married, I gave a statue of Guanyin, as well as two red corals, a set of ruby heads, the third brother here, is it slightly reduced?" ”

Because the second room is also in office all the year round, the two rooms can be regarded as separated, and there is no saying that the elder brother cannot marry if he does not marry the younger brother, so there is no obstacle to the marriage with Jiao Zhongzhan.

Mrs. Jiao smiled and nodded: "That's natural, it's okay to reduce three achievements." Speaking of Jiao Wanwan's belly again, after looking at it, Tiekou bluntly concluded: "It must be a son, I look at this walking posture, plus the belly is pointy, that's right." ”

Jiao Wanwan couldn't cry or laugh: "I can't do this accurately, what if it's a daughter?" So let's not talk about it yet. ”

Even if it was only a few days away, they were tired and panicked when they were in a hurry, and after lunch, Mrs. Jiao and Jiao Zhongzhan went to rest separately. Jiao Wanwan leaned on the soft couch, touched her stomach, and looked at Zhao Defang: "What a daughter, you are not allowed to dislike it." ”

Zhao Defang couldn't help but smile and kissed Jiao Wanwan's cheek: "When did I say that I dislike my daughter?" I said early in the morning, whether it is a boy or a girl, I like it very much, if it is a girl, it is the first flowering and then the fruit, if it is a boy, it is also good, it is all our children, where is the difference? You don't have to think about it too much, just keep it in peace. ”

After a pause, he asked again: "Why didn't I know about the children's amusement park or something you said before?" "Slightly unhappy, my own lady's plan is not the first to know, and I don't like my brother-in-law a little.

"Isn't that not ready yet?" Jiao Wanwan didn't notice Zhao Defang's delicate and careful thinking at all, and smilingly pinched the grapes and stuffed them into her mouth, in another month, she won't be able to eat them, pears and apples can be frozen and eaten in winter, can this grape work? Otherwise, try it?

"It's mainly about opening the academy that has emptied my purse." Although there is the support of the official family and the queen, those two are only talking...... cough, don't pay for it, it's not a small amount to build two oversized colleges, and the location is not bad, even the official family can't directly give it for nothing, more or less go through a procedure in the household department to pay some silver, so the two colleges are built, not only is there no silver in the account books of the palace, but Jiao Wanwan's own private house, and there is no silver.

So, she had to find a way to make money. The toy store is also going to open, but it is a small head, and the profit is not large. It just so happened that Zhao Dezhao ascended the throne for two or three years, except for the flood on Fujian Road, it has always been smooth, and seeing that the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty is about to be firmly established, even if she is not good at history, she also knows that the economy of the Song Dynasty, especially the early Song Dynasty after Zhao Kuangyin, in all dynasties, except for the Tang Dynasty, it is almost the top, and it can be regarded as the most prosperous. Since everyone has money, it should be very willing to have fun or something, right?

In addition to the children's amusement park, she also plans to build a leisure resort, which was reminded by the ski resort that Zhao Defang said before. The conditions are limited, and the ski mountain resort cannot be opened, so it is possible to change the same thing, and it is also possible to change the hot spring mountain resort.

In addition, there are many business plans, I have never seen a pig run and eaten pork, Jiao Wanwan herself is not a strong woman, but it is not difficult to find someone who is good at business from Zhao Defang, she is only responsible for making ideas, and someone else will worry about the rest.
