Chapter 83: Zhuangzi (Four Changes)
Xiao Han put a lot of effort into thinking about the marriage of his three daughters when they got married.
Chang Muzhi is going to marry the royal family, and there are too many things like gold and silver, which looks tacky. After inquiring about the preferences of the five princes at that time, Xiao Han gave his concubine more calligraphy and paintings, antiques and some exquisite things from overseas. Even the Zhuangzi for Chang Muzhi is also a good place with its own merits, and the dowry is worth 20,000 taels together.
Chang Qinzhi's husband Li Chengxue is determined to be an official and benefit the people. Chang Qinzhi is in Xiao Han's premise, and he will take office with his husband, and he may not stay in the capital much. Xiao Han discussed with the Qian family and gave Chang Qinzhi some more gold and silver valuables, so that she would not be shy when she was outside. The Qian family is also from an official family, and he also has some silver, and he gave half of it to Chang Qinzhi as a dowry. Chang Qinzhi's dowry totaled about more than 10,000 taels.
When he came to Chang Runzhi's place, because he was married in Beijing, his husband was also a Beijing official, and he was born in a poor family, and his family was poor, so Xiao Han married more Zhuangzi shops that could have a steady stream of inputs. At that time, the dowry could be 10,000 taels. After a few years, the output of these Zhuangzi shops will not be a decimal.
It's a pity that the Fang family's eyelids are too shallow, they only look at the current interests, and let Chang Runzhi, an invisible rich woman, go.
Now Chang Runzhi can eat for ten lifetimes even if he sits and eats the mountain.
With Xiao Han's permission, Chang Runzhi ordered Yao Huang Wei Zi, and tomorrow he will go with her to live in a village on the outskirts of Beijing for a while.
The Yue family also got the news, and when he went to thank Xiao Han, he packed up excitedly when he came back.
On the second day, after running the old lady and Xiao Han's greetings, he took the Yue family out of the house.
She's going to relax.
Yue sat in the carriage, and seeing that there was no joyful expression on Chang Runzhi's face, his originally excited heart gradually sank.
"What's wrong with the third girl?" Yue Shi said worriedly: "Look at your face is not very good. ”
Chang Runzhi smiled reluctantly.
Last night, she thought about things in the middle of the night, and her brain was still a little dizzy at this time.
Chang Runzhi leaned on Yue's shoulder and said softly: "Auntie, the carriage shakes me dizzy, I'll sleep for a while." ”
As he spoke, he quietly closed his eyes.
Yue Shi hurriedly adjusted her posture to make her sleep more comfortable, and looked at Chang Runzhi's eyes full of pity.
It took more than an hour for the carriage to reach its destination.
The main production of this Zhuangzi is 50 acres of fruit forest, not to mention the side, the daily fruit will not break.
Chang Run got out of the carriage, met the three stewards in Zhuangzi, and took Yue's hand to the house where she lived.
The houses in the manor are spacious, but the main house is a little deserted because there are almost no inhabitants.
The steward let people hold a large plate of melons and fruits, and smiled at Chang Runzhi: "I only received the news that the girl was coming last evening, and the preparation was not sufficient, so I ask the girl to forgive me." ”
Chang Runzhi waved his hand and said gently: "It's the autumn harvest season, go and take care of you, don't let me delay your business." ”
The steward was busy, and asked Chang Runzhi if he wanted to inspect the account books of the past years.
Chang Runzhi shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm just here to relax, my mother reads the account books every year, the income on the Zhuangzi is good, and I don't need to look at it anymore because of the care of the steward." ”
Only then did the steward show a sincere smile: "That girl is casual, and the little one is busy." ”
Chang Runzhi nodded, and after the steward left, he took the melon and fruit and handed it to Yue's and said, "Auntie, eat." ”
"Okay, the three girls will eat too."
Yue Shi took it happily, took a bite and stopped, and asked Chang Runzhi: "Is the third girl still dizzy?" ”
"Don't get dizzy." Chang Runzhi smiled at Yue's family, watched Yao Huang Weizi tidy up the cage and make the bed and fold the quilt, and his thoughts couldn't help but return to what Xiao Han said yesterday.
Ever since she knew about the Nine Emperor Princes, she had only heard of the former Nine Emperor Princesses, and had never heard of him having a woman beside her.
Probably, everyone thinks that Tongfang is a thing at best, not a woman of the Nine Emperors, right?
In the context of ancient times, it was the norm for men to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that Liu Tong was still a prince......
Chang Runzhi thought about it, and sighed.
Yue said softly, "What are the three girls thinking? Auntie sees that you are different today than usual, and you seem to be very depressed, but what is the matter, can you tell your aunt? ”
Chang Runzhi couldn't help but look at Yue.
Her love has changed, and only Yue's mother-in-law has noticed and cared.
"Auntie......" Chang Runzhi said softly: "Yesterday I heard from my wife that the Nine Emperors still have two rooms. ”
Yue Shi nodded and said strangely, "What's wrong?" ”
The Yue clan was not surprised that the Nine Emperor Princes had a room, but they were surprised that she mentioned it.
Chang Run didn't know how to say it when he was one.
Yue Shi thought for a while and said, "The third girl doesn't want the Nine Emperors to have a room? ”
Chang Runzhi was silent.
Yue hesitated, reaching out and touching her head.
"The uncle of the Fang family is from a poor family, marrying you is Gao Pan, and he still has a concubine...... The Nine Emperors are the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Family, and his status is noble, isn't it normal for him to have intercourse? ”
"But I don't want my man to sleep with the woman next to me." Chang Runzhi replied.
Seeing her like this, the Yue clan was a little sad, and only after being silent for a long time did he say softly: "If the Nine Emperor Princes are willing to guard only the three girls alone, of course it is a good thing. But if the Nine Emperors are unwilling...... The third girl should not be too angry. Men are like this, they can't resist the temptation, they can't keep their hearts. ”
"Auntie, don't be sad...... Chang Runzhi saw Yue's sad expression, and couldn't help but feel sorry: "It's me who is not good, it's me who drilled the horns." ”
"Don't blame the three girls." Yue smiled and sighed softly: "Hou Ye and his wife have such a good relationship, and they also accepted Aunt Qian from the outside, Mrs. gave me to Hou Ye, and Hou Ye didn't object, right?" A man wants to take a concubine, and if he has this heart, he can't stop it. The third girl, don't take this matter too seriously. ”
Chang Runzhi lowered his eyes, and said after a while: "Those two have a room...... It's someone who existed before him, and I can't care about it. I just hope he doesn't add more people in the future. ”
Yue patted her hand and said, "The third girl learns from the wife and the eldest girl." Whether it is Hou Ye or Rui Wangye, there are others in the backyard, but don't the wife and the eldest girl also rejoice every day? Don't be angry with these things. ”
"I know, auntie." Chang Runzhi smiled.
Her mood suddenly improved.
After getting married, she talked to Liu Tong.
If Liu Tong has plans to take a concubine in the future, then she will be an ordinary couple with him who respect each other, take care of his housekeeping, manage the backyard, and have children.
If he hadn't had such intentions......
In addition to taking care of his housework and having children, she will also try to love him with all her heart.
Thinking of Liu Tong's sometimes nervous and shy appearance in front of her, and sometimes smiling Yan Yan, Chang Runzhi couldn't help laughing. (To be continued.) )
