The gentle words were passed to the emperor in the fastest time. In addition to Xia Ying's words, there are also Xia Yao's twists and turns. Xia Yao said in the recital that when the county lord founded Guangyuan Bank, it was not to make money. Rather, it is to let the bank play a role in regulating and controlling the exchange of the entire Daqi bank. If it really goes that far, the exchange will be more convenient than it is now, and the interests and influence on the imperial court will be extraordinary. Let the Emperor think about it.

Wen Wan could have predicted, how could the emperor not know that ♀ once some industries were taken over from Wen Wan, they would definitely have to be operated separately, and the profits would be greatly reduced at that time. First, it is difficult to be as desireless and undemanding as Wen Wan, and never go beyond the principle; Second, there is no such talent; There is nothing that can reassure the emperor. It's just that the emperor can't open his mouth, and Wen Wan worked hard to make money to help him. Now that he has children, he wants to return Wen Wan to work hard to make money for him, and he himself feels that he can't get over it. However, since Wen Wan has this interest, she is willing to do it. That's good, of course. The stone that the emperor had pressed on his heart was also put down. Thinking that after Wen Wan entered the palace next time, the uncle and nephew would have a good talk.

This matter was acquiesced in by the emperor, and under the gentle non-expression, he continued to be silent.

Everyone was full of slander, but no one had the courage to take the initiative to provoke this matter. When the time comes, it will not only make the emperor think that there is an attempt, but also have ill intentions. Even Wen Wan will hold a grudge and offend the two most unprovoked people in Daqi, will she be able to live a good life in the future! This thing was strangely in the midst of the crowd, and it remained silent. The so-called silence is nothing more than everyone waiting. Now Wen Wan's month is still young, and when the month is getting bigger and bigger, Wen Wan's action is inconvenient, and she must hand it over.

What Wen Wan has to do now is to have a good baby. Everything else, all on the back foot. Therefore, in addition to missing her husband who is away, I am still living and calculating where Bai Shinian has probably been, and life is still relatively comfortable.

The days slipped to March.

March. Exam. When I came back after the exam, I felt good about myself. Bai Shihua hesitated and asked Qinghe if he should go to see Wen Wan, and say that he would take a look first.

Qinghe glanced at her husband: "The results haven't come out yet." It's just a matter of knowing how you feel. Even if I want to go to Wen Wan to talk about it, I have to wait for the results to come out before I can say it. Otherwise, Wen Wan asked me how I could reply. It only took three days for the results to come out. Waiting three more days won't make a difference. ”

It was also in these three days that the ∮ family knew about Ming Ji's entrance examination∮ Lord asked Mrs. Pang to discuss the marriage with the Bai family immediately∮ Mrs. was a little reluctant.

The huge man was furious and reprimanded Madame Pang fiercely□ threatening if her temperament went down like this. Not only did he divorce his wife, but he could take her to the Buddhist hall.

Mrs. Pang was very reluctant∮ Madame threatened her eldest daughter since she hanged herself. After being cut by a huge person, Mrs. ∮ thought that she was pouring out her heart and lungs for her, but she didn't expect her daughter not only not to appreciate it, but to lose face like this. On the contrary, I gradually fell in love with my niece who was sweet to herself.

No matter how reluctant he was, he had to strengthen his spirit and go to the Bai family. As a result, when she arrived at the Bai family, Mrs. Pang was secretly squeezed by Qinghe. The meaning of the Bai family is very clear, since you want to quit your relatives so much, then it's okay to quit your relatives" He has been in the Hou Mansion for most of his life. At first, it was hindered by the affection of relatives, and later because the family road fell and I couldn't bear to swallow it. Now that the son sees that he has a good future≡ family is about to rise, and he is afraid that he will not be able to marry a good daughter-in-law. Therefore, although the words are not sharp, they are also pushed back sentence by sentence.

Mrs. Pang couldn't even drink saliva in the Bai family. I came back disgraced after being scolded. When I came back, I was so angry that I smashed a cup: "Go, change the post and return the kiss." Now that the Bai family is relying on the power of the county lord, they don't take us seriously, and they want to climb the high branches. We're not uncommon. ”

This is a troublemaker. Naturally, it spread quickly∮ the eldest lady's personal maid told Miss Pang the news she had heard∮ although the eldest lady was sad in her heart, she didn't know what happened to her mother. Why was he encouraged by his aunt to quit the Bai family and marry his eldest cousin.

Miss Pang didn't understand, because the mother didn't care much about her, and she didn't complain∮ Mrs. was indifferent to her, not as good as her brother and sister. But she also has some younger brothers and sisters, and she has nothing to wait for materially, even if she ♀ is cold, she also admits it. But she just couldn't figure out why she was her mother's own daughter, why she was encouraged by her aunt in a few words, and wanted to give her a divorce and let her marry her eldest cousin.

Although the eldest cousin is said to be a lifter, he looks dignified. But she is 10,000 can't look down. Don't think she doesn't know, her aunt's family is in the middle of the road, and her aunt wants her eldest cousin to marry her, not because she has a rich dowry and her relationship with the Pang family. If you really get married, you have this name, don't say how to pinch her! She can still have a good life.

Although her mother complained that she didn't know what to do, she said that the eldest young master of the Bai family was a white body, useless‖ not a showman, and she was 108,000 miles away from her eldest cousin. It's a pity that she knows that the truth of the matter is not like this ♀, and it was decided by her mother on the surface, and it was also because her mother was too enthusiastic when she knew about it, and her father mistakenly attached her mother. But in fact, it was the °C set by her grandmother for her that her mother loved her so much, how could she set her a good-for-nothing fiancé. Even if Bai Mingzhen was really so unbearable, she would admit it. Not to mention that a woman should start from the beginning, at least she knows that it is a fire pit, she will never jump, and if the other one is also a fire pit, she also accepts her fate.

The maid beside Miss Pang was also very sad in her heart: "Miss, it would be nice if the old lady was here." The old lady will definitely call the shots for you. "This is going to be withdrawn, what can the eldest lady do!

Miss Pang cried enough, and said fiercely: "If I really quit my marriage, I will twist my hair and become a sister-in-law, and I will never marry my eldest cousin." ”

Another maid of the eldest lady had some insight: "Girl, don't be too sad ♀, it's not bad enough to be in this position, and it's the master who is making the decision." Now that the Bai family has married the gentle county lord, the prospects are just right. The master will never break this family. ”

Another maid hesitated and said, "However, the Bai family wants to withdraw from their relatives." The lord can't stop it. ”

The maid who had just started sighed slightly: "Before Madame...... The Bai family's hearts were filled with anger. It's just that if we quit our relatives, we didn't withdraw from our relatives when the Bai family was in trouble, and now the Bai family will withdraw if they want to get up. It's the Bai family that's ugly. Speaking of this, the maid also had some opinions, her eyes lit up, and she said in a very positive tone: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that there will definitely be twists and turns in this family, but the sister who will not quit will not quit back then. They all hanged themselves. The people of the Bai family should not be so unconscientious. If not, it would have been a long time ago. Moreover, the slave maid heard that the lord of the county was a very promise-heavy person. Madame, well, but the girl did nothing wrong. The Bai family's big house will be attached to the county lord in the future, and it will definitely not do the matter of demolishing the bridge on the river. "The great name of the gentle county lord is known to everyone. Therefore, it is not surprising that a maid knows a lot about her gentle temperament.

The maid standing on the side was a little worried: "But if you are so reluctant to marry your sister, it will be difficult to live." "If you don't marry, if you really marry into the Fan family, it's even worse◇ It's not right.

Miss Pang also thinks so. So he quickly calmed down: "When my grandmother set this marriage for me, she took a fancy to the prince of the Hou Mansion and Mrs. Shizi was a benevolent person. Married to the Bai family. No matter how difficult it is, it's better than marrying a big cousin. "I really don't know that the eldest cousin is a hungry ghost. The two maids sent by the family to serve were all accepted. It's just that because of his father's majesty, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in their mansion. Only dare to touch those two cautious maids. But outside, it's not clean. Then there is an aunt who is merciful and ruthless.

When the huge man returned, he heard about it. asked Mrs. Pang coldly: "I asked you to go to the Bai family to discuss the marriage, did you say something unpleasant?" ”

Mrs. Pang's heart was a little empty. But he still doesn't admit it. He only kept saying that the Bai family must destroy his relatives∮ Lord looked at Mrs. Pang. said coldly: "The eldest lady of the Bai family used to be the wife of the prince, and her knowledge will not be so short. The news that my son would rather die than destroy his relatives has long been spread, and the people of the Bai family have just recovered. If they destroy their relatives and leave them behind, they will ruin the future of Mingxi. How could such a shrewd person as the eldest lady of the Bai family fall into such a hidden danger for her son. Moreover, the Bai family's big house will be attached to the gentle county lord in the future. The gentle county lord values faith and righteousness the most, how could the Bai family big house do such a taboo thing. If you hadn't acted inappropriately, you wouldn't have been reprimanded. ”

The huge people don't want to let Mrs. Pang do any more bad things. directly ordered Mrs. Pang to be sent to the small Buddha Hall. Then he personally went to the Bai family to apologize.

The giant man was right. Bai Shihua has the idea of quitting his family. But it was strongly opposed by Qinghe. The reason is what the huge people said: "The fall of the handle of the Dutch saying can't dispel Bai Shihua's thoughts."

Qinghe saw that Bai Shihua was still hesitating, so he had to take a fierce medicine: "Mrs. Pang is very excessive. But the eldest lady of the Pang family is a good one. If you quit before, it's just that, but at this juncture, you quit your family. I know more about gentleness than you do. It was a man whose ♀ eyes couldn't tolerate a little sand to let Wen Wan know, and he would definitely think that we would tear down the bridge when we crossed the river. Wen Wan supported us for the sake of the sixth brother. But if Wen Wanruo has doubts about our character, do you think she will still support our big house? I'm sure to tell you, no, absolutely not. ”

Bai Shihua looked at Qinghe: "What if not!" Bai Shihua meant, since his son has such a good future. Then find another daughter-in-law who will help my son more. But when it comes to gentleness, he can't get out of the pulse. For this brother and daughter-in-law, he was a little afraid from the bottom of his heart.

Qinghe's tone was a little rushed: "I said that I would definitely do it." You want to gamble on your son's future, but I don't dare. You have to dare to withdraw from your relatives and ruin Mingxi's future. I'll fight with you. "The daughter-in-law is a good one, so live a good life at home. She is also not harsh or abusive. If it's not good, then don't blame her for being ruthless, just divorce and remarry. But if the future is gone, then there is nothing. She didn't want to live the kind of life that was ridiculed and relied on her mother's help. I don't want my son to be inferior.

Bai Shihua saw that Qinghe was angry with her for the first time, and he didn't dare to say more. Since you can't retreat, you won't retreat. Therefore, for the huge number of people coming to the door in person, although Bai Shihua put his posture high and spoke very hard, he did not mention the matter of retiring his relatives.

Although the huge man was a little angry, he was also relieved to see that Bai Shihua did not take the initiative to mention the matter of withdrawing from his family. As long as you don't quit your family. He swore by Mrs. Pang. But I'm also afraid of what if. Now seeing that Wen Wan County is mainly helping the Bai family's big house, thinking about Ping Shangtang's age of less than thirty, it is equivalent to his position, and it is also from the third grade. With the support of the county lord, some of the families who want to marry the Bai family's big house have withdrawn from their relatives at °C, and the Pang family has lost.

Three days later, the results were out. Ming Ji won the ninth place in the exam.

Wen Wan was the first to know the news: "Mingxi, this kid is not bad. Although it is not in the top three, it is enough to be in the top ten. ”

Xia Yao disagreed: "Wait for our child's child to be born." Don't say the top three. In the future, I will definitely take the top exam. ”

Wen Wan smiled and said, "Then you have to be prepared to be bitter from the snack." "Whether it is a martial arts champion or a liberal arts champion, you must endure hardships. Wen Zhuangyuan must study hard in the cold window, and if he wants to take the martial arts champion, he must also enter his father every day like his father, and practice hard.

Xia Yao nodded: "That depends on whether the county lord is reluctant or not." ”

Wen Wan sighed slightly: "If you are reluctant to bear him hardship, then wait for him to suffer enough when he is old and then endure all the hardships, and when he is big, he can withstand strong winds and waves." As long as it's good for them, I won't be soft. ”

Xia Yao smiled. Easier said than done: "County Lord, it's already done over there." Now that the exam is moving forward, it is justified. ”

Wen Wan nodded: "In the next post, please ask the eldest lady to come to the house to talk." ”

The eldest lady was still worried about how to meet Wen Wan. Now Wen Wan is busy raising a baby. It's not good for her to bother rashly. In ancient times, the probability of miscarriage was very high, so it was generally three months before people sent a letter to their relatives to inform them.

However, this annoyance was quickly eliminated. Because Wen Wan's post was delivered, I asked her to go to the county lord's mansion. The eldest lady packed up and followed the visitor to the county lord's mansion.

"County Lord, the eldest lady is here." Wen Wan listened and hurriedly asked me to come in. I saw that the eldest lady who walked in was wearing a pine-colored dress, her hair was neatly combed in a bun, and a golden hairpin was inserted. Compared with the last time I saw Wen Wan← person's spirit is better, isn't it a star and a half! Therefore, it is not unreasonable for people to be in good spirits when they are happy.

Today, Wen Wan is wearing a loose dress in a pine color. The hairstyle is also casually pulled up, and there is no jewelry on the body. A homely outfit.

Qinghe bent down and saluted Wen Wan, "Say hello to the county lord." ”

Wen Wan nodded, indicating that she was pregnant. But I didn't say much about it. Wen Wan is not superstitious though. But some customs, the words passed down from the old people are still convinced. Children under three months of age are the most angry and cannot be discussed. I won't talk about it.

After the eldest lady sat down, she said with a smile: "The master has been urging me to ask. Otherwise, my heart is not steady※ My brother is in the year of standing. There are no heirs. The lord was worried. So I'm more anxious than anyone else. It's just that I didn't dare to come and disturb because I was afraid of frightening the county lord. ”

Wen Wan smiled much more sincerely: "Thank you for your concern." It's also out of caution, so I've been refusing to meet lately. But this time, I heard the explanation that I did well in the exam. Therefore the heart rejoices. Why didn't you bring Mingjie here? ”

Qinghe shook his head: "It should be." If there is no sixth brother, where would we still have a good life like now. Now Ming Zhi is preparing for next month's election (. The so-called selection is just a formality), Mingguang is on an errand with his uncle, and Minghuai is also studying hard, preparing to try it out this year. Wen Wan looked at the eldest lady and said, "This time, I want to ask my sister-in-law for help with something." I'm already busy, and now I have a body, and I can't work anymore. Therefore, he plans to hand over the affairs in the general's mansion and the property under the general's name to the eldest brother and sister-in-law to manage. I don't know what my sister-in-law thinks. ”

Qinghe was a little surprised. If this is the case, the master does not have to do nothing every day. Moreover, Wen Wan is not a stingy person. It will definitely increase a lot of income every year," although He was happy, but thinking about Wen Wan's embezzlement of huge amounts of property at their wedding, "He still hesitated a little in his heart, "It is said that I should not shirk." It's just that there will be some entanglements on this silver coin, and there will inevitably be some entanglements◎ If there's something wrong, I'm afraid of losing the face of the county lord. "Actually, I'm more afraid of annoying Wen Wan. Compared with money, the future of the child is more important.

Wen Wan said very gently, "It's not unreasonable for my sister-in-law to worry about this matter, but since I can leave it to you to take care of, I am naturally relieved." If you are not at ease, let Steward Feng assist the eldest master in management. Steward Feng is loyal to the general, and it shouldn't be a problem to have him assist the eldest master in managing those industries. Sister-in-law, you don't need to scruple too much. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have entrusted it to you. As for the money, if you and the eldest master help me take care of it, I won't let you lose. What do you think of the 20% of the industry's income? "Wen Wan really wants to manage, just send two stewards to go. It's just that she thinks that Bai Shihua has nothing to do all day long, and there are many places to use money for big houses. Send money directly, Wen Wan will never do such a thing. I am used to sending money, and after a long time, it means that it is justified. But in the name of helping in this way, it is both nice and thoughtful. also gave Bai Shihua something to do.

The eldest lady was stunned. Bai Shinian has a lot of industries under his name. The income from the light field property and the shop, as well as the rental house, there are tens of thousands of taels of silver a year. Although the eldest lady was a little moved, she was indeed a little embarrassed. They have already taken advantage of Bai Shinian, ♀ and they have blatantly taken advantage of it, "This, how good." It's just to help take care of it, how can you ask for dividends. ”。

Gently said earnestly, "I have always taken silver money seriously, and you should know this, sister-in-law." As for the previous incident, my sister-in-law and I are not outsiders. I might as well be honest with you. The third master, they are not brothers after all, they are separated by one layer. My people live in the General's Mansion, and in the future, they will take advantage of the momentum of the General's Mansion to do nonsense outside± and use their lives in front to make meritorious deeds, but they are pulling back their legs in the back. I will never tolerate it. Sister-in-law, you have been with them for more than ten years, you still don't know what kind of virtue they are, do you think what I said will really happen, or is it worrying? "Wen Wan's is definitely not a person who is worried about the sky ♀, that is, he licks it when he smells it. If she lives in the General's Mansion and gets into trouble, she won't be the one to wipe her ass when the time comes. It also depends on whether she agrees or not.

The eldest lady said sincerely, "Yours does make sense. When you tell me these words, I won't hide them, and say a few words that dig out my heart. The daughter-in-law of the third child took advantage of the power of the world to do business with others. My lord is always the one who is not pure-minded, and he doesn't use it a few times. Lao Ba also often went into debt outside in the name of the General's Mansion. My lord also said it a few times, and even persuaded the sixth brother. But the sixth brother just came back, so it's hard to open this mouth. In fact, let them move out, my lord is still very pleased ♀, even if they think of the demon moth, it can't be involved in the general's mansion. Can't make big waves. "If the third master hears it, they will definitely spray. You're getting such a big benefit≡ so it's better to move out. They don't take a dime.

It is impossible for Wen Wan to use her own money to be a good person. But with Bai Shinian's money to help him, his eldest brother didn't feel distressed at all, "That sister-in-law shouldn't shirk." I don't care what other people do, but the eldest master is the elder brother of the world's relatives, how can I watch your life not be good. Now you need money, and since you are a family, don't talk about two families. Now the eldest nephew is about to get married, and when the second nephew gets married, the third nephew will go to the museum, these are all big expenses. And. You have a strong family background, you have enough confidence, and you can also say that you are a better daughter-in-law. Not for yourself, but for your children. "In this era, it's about the right people. But it also pays attention to marrying women from high doors and marrying women from low doors.

"County Lord, then I'll be cheeky and take it." Speaking of which. If the eldest lady doesn't know that Wen Wan is deliberately trying to help them, she won't be stupid. Wen Wan can manage such a big industry. These things in the general's mansion can naturally be managed. After thinking about it for a while, I was reluctant to refuse. Not for yourself, but also for your children. Just keep this love in mind.

The two talked for a while, and then they talked about Mingxi's marriage.

The eldest lady hesitated for a moment, but still said the filth of the relationship with the Pang family. In her heart, the eldest lady is not willing to marry this family. After Ming Yi was wronged before, they all agreed to quit their relatives. It's a pity that it didn't work out in the end. Now the withdrawal of relatives will definitely have an impact on Mingxi. But if Wen Wan doesn't mind, it won't affect much. Therefore, Qinghe's tentative and gentle tone was in it.

Wen Wan frowned when she heard this, and said, "Then the eldest lady of the Pang family was not born to Mrs. Pang?" Although Wen Wan has heard that Mrs. Pang is not satisfied with this marriage a few times, but most people are reluctant to let their daughter marry and suffer in the past, and it is normal ♀ to hear this, and the first reaction is that this Mrs. Pang is a stepmother. If she is a biological mother, she will not let her daughter fall into a dilemma.

Qinghe was a little embarrassed, but she didn't expect Wen Wan's first reaction to be this: "No, Mrs. Pang is the mother of the eldest lady of the Pang family." It's just that when I saw our family in the middle of the road, I fell in love with the eldest son of her mother's sister. She originally said that her nephew had a reputation for making people, and he was better than Mingxi. I always wanted to quit my family. I didn't match the old man's eyes, and I was ready to agree. It's just that the huge people didn't agree. Therefore, Mrs. Pang made it difficult several times, and she wanted to withdraw from her relatives but did not succeed. ”
