Chapter Ninety-Three: Heavy Responsibility

Zhao Chongli smiled bitterly and said, "Why is the second brother, the second brother and sister have such a big hand?" Even if her own daughter is married, can she give so much silver? ”

Mrs. Han smiled and said, "The county lord of Wenhui is rich in the world, how much does it cost to marry the county lord of Wen'an?" Our Zhenzhen is a niece, and she spends 500,000 taels of silver, so if she has a daughter, I think, it will not be as simple as silver. ”

Zhao Chongli was surprised and asked, "If you don't give silver, what do you give?" ”

Mrs. Han said: "What was the dowry of the county lord of Wenhui back then? Xiao Chen's family can give his daughter four cities, won't Lord Wen Hui give his daughter one city? ”

Saying this, Zhao Chongli was speechless, hey, it's not at the same level at all, so don't say it.

Mrs. Han said: "That's a matter for the future, the second brother only has one son at the moment, whether the daughter has or not, besides, what we have to think about now is how to spend the 500,000 taels of silver." ”

Zhao Chongli hurriedly said: "How can this be spent? Are we short of money in our house? This is the second brother, the dowry given to Zhenzhen by the county lord of Wen Hui. ”

Mrs. Han laughed: "Am I going to spend my daughter's dowry?" When our house was divided, we had a big share, how could we be short of money to spend? What I mean is that now I will buy these 500,000 taels of silver into a money-making industry, and I will marry my daughter in the future, and it is estimated that the money from the industry alone will be enough to spend every year. ”

At this moment, Zhao Chongli understood, calculated for a while, and said, "In this way, these things will be handed over to you." I'll also ask someone to find out which shops are selling lately. There are also those fields that are worth buying. By the way, since we are going to do this, let's take out our 200,000 taels of silver and buy it together. Anyway, buy more, so that the output is more, and the daughter will not be stretched thin when she spends it in the future. ”

Seeing that her husband was so willing to give up on her daughter, Mrs. Han was very satisfied.

The husband and wife discussed it again, and Zhao Chongli went out. He asked some friends about the market, and finally, after more than a month of deliberation, checked. In the end, the 700,000 taels of silver were bought into some good shops in Shanghai. Good shops in the capital, as well as some good fields in the south of the Yangtze River.

When Mrs. Han and her family were doing these things, the letter from the old loyal and righteous father had already been sent back. The old loyal and righteous man was very happy about this matter, and. Along with the letter was to let the bank note issued by Nanyang Bank also send back. It was a total of two hundred thousand taels of silver.

This made Zhao Chongli very happy.

Mrs. Han suddenly had a lot of silver. Naturally, more industries can be purchased. In the end, the 900,000 taels of silver were purchased, and it was almost time for the New Year.

Zhao Zhenzhen has been studying with Bai for more than a month. In addition to managing the property of the house on a daily basis, the Han family managed the property of the house on a daily basis. Take care of the affairs of the house, buy property for Zhenzhen, and in addition, as long as you have time, you will go to Xiao Chen's house to visit her daughter. Therefore, mother and daughter also meet often.

Han is a person with a heart, and she has a total of three biological daughters. These three daughters, that is, the eldest daughter Zhenzhen, are older, and the rest are still young, but the Han family often brings the younger daughter to Xiao Chen's house, first, to get close to her sister, and secondly, the Bai family likes children very much, especially these two younger children. Han thought that the eldest daughter had already decided on her future, and if the following two daughters could enter the eyes of the Bai family, it would be very good for the Bai family to tell her about her family affairs in the future.

The days go by quickly. The queen often summons the nobles in the capital to drink tea, enjoy flowers, and chat. But among these noble girls, the most favored are the concubines of the Bai family, Zhao Zhenzhen, and the concubines of the Xia family, the emperor's foreign family. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is chosen for the eldest prince. I'm afraid that the marriage of the eldest prince should be on these three people.

The rest of the unsuccessful girls' families were naturally very unhappy, and many people began to target these three girls at banquets in other capitals. Zhao Zhenzhen is okay, she attends the banquet less, because now she lives in Xiao Chen's house, and the affairs of studying in Guanghan City are full every day.

The white girl is not afraid, after all, she is a veteran girl, and there are guards to follow, it is nothing, but the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to prevent, the white girl still has a few times, fell into the pond once, when playing the piano, her fingers were cut once, and when she drank tea, she was scalded once.

The most miserable is the girl of the Xia family. Although she was born in the emperor's foreign family, her grandfather was also favored by the emperor and got the title of Duke of Cheng'en, but after all, the foundation is too thin, and it cannot be compared with those family girls and eunuch girls, so the number of times she was bullied has increased.

Fortunately, the girl of the Xia family, these people all know, but in the future, she will be in the position of a side concubine, that is, one day the eldest prince will become the prince and the emperor, and the girl of the Xia family is just an ordinary concubine, after all, her family background is too thin. Although her appearance is like that of the Xia family, she is very beautiful, it can be said that she is more beautiful than the Wen'an County Lord Langxue back then, but no matter how beautiful her appearance is, she can't stand her background, so everyone doesn't have much hatred for her, just a little torture, for example, falling into the pond, getting wet clothes, and being ridiculed.

Seeing this situation, the Bai family could only restrain Zhao Zhenzhen a little more and try not to let her attend such a banquet. However, at the New Year's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, Zhao Zhenzhen was still almost scalded by boiling water, the Bai family was naturally very angry, and the queen also punished the relevant palace maids, and Mrs. Han was frightened, for fear of any more accidents.

In this atmosphere, in the spring, when the flowers have not yet been appreciated, in the capital, the Bai family received a happy letter. Chen Wenhui is pregnant again.

It's a great event. Although Bai was happy, he was still very worried. The last time Chen Wenhui was pregnant, Mrs. Hu went to take care of her. Mrs. Hu has been gone for two or three years. This Mrs. Hu has only been back for less than a few months, so why is the Bai family embarrassed to ask Mrs. Hu to go again?

Although Mrs. Hu took the initiative to go, the Bai family did not agree, and the Bai family and Chen Yuanheng discussed for a long time, and finally decided that the Bai family would go to the northwest in person to take care of Chen Wenhui. However, in this case, what should Zhao Zhenzhen, who studied with the Bai family, invite Mrs. Han and Zhao Chongli to come over and talk.

Bai said: "I have told you all about the situation. I'm going to go to the Northwest soon. But Zhenzhen can't delay here. You also know what happened in the capital. I was so prepared that something like that happened at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet. The current situation in the capital is not easy to say. So, I think, if you are willing, let Zhenzhen go to the northwest with me. ”

As soon as he said this, Zhao Chongli and Mrs. Han were stunned. After all, Zhao Chongli was a little decisive, he said: "Thank you to the old lady for thinking about us and taking care of Zhenzhen." In fact, the second brother and sister are pregnant, and my mother, Mrs. Zhao, should take care of them. But, well, but, my mother's health is not good, and she may not be able to go, so she is really going to trouble the old lady. ”

"If Zhenzhen can go to the northwest with me, this is something I can't ask for. First, she can continue to study with the old lady, and second, when she goes to the northwest, she can also study with her second aunt, her second aunt Wenhui is the smartest daughter of Dachu praised by the emperor, if Zhenzhen can learn it for a lifetime. Third, her grandmother can't take care of her second aunt, and she should do her filial piety. Fourth, it is also a good thing to avoid these troubles in the capital. It's just that this will be more trouble for the old lady. ”

Han didn't expect that his husband would be so good at talking. I was stunned for a moment, and I also felt that what my husband said made sense, and in the current situation, it was better to let Zhao Zhenzhen go to the northwest.

Han opened his mouth and said, "Our Zhenzhen has been bothering the old lady for so long. Just don't bother the two masters, please continue to take Zhenzhen with the old lady, just like our grandfather said, Zhenzhen is a matter of killing four birds with one stone, it is good for us, but it is just troublesome for the old lady. ”

Han said, still thinking in his heart that whatever her husband said was right, that is, something about Mrs. Zhao was wrong. Mrs. Zhao is in good health now. Her second daughter, Master Joan of Arc, is now a popular figure in the capital, and she has also lived in the Taoist temple for a long time, some eat, some play, and her life is really happy and happy, where will she go to the northwest to serve her daughter-in-law? Besides, even if Mrs. Zhao is going, does Xiao Chen's family dare to let her go?

Chen Wenhui should not have much problem giving birth, but she is afraid that someone will frame her. In this world, I am afraid that there is only one Mrs. Zhao who can frame Chen Wenhui. The Xiao Chen family is afraid of it, where will Mrs. Zhao take care of it. But the husband said this kind words, I have to say it. At least his husband and wife should make a statement, and let the Xiao Chen family know that he and Mrs. Zhao are not all the way.

Mrs. Han said: "The old lady doesn't know when to leave, tell us, we will also prepare some things for Zhenzhen, and also prepare some things for the county lord of Wenhui, although the county lord of Wenhui does not lack anything, but it is also our heart." ”

Bai Shi was very satisfied and said, "In this case, you can take Zhenzhen back." I've already told her that you should take her back for a few days, and prepare some things to take with you. I'm ready to leave in half a month. ”

The days are so urgent, but Mrs. Han can also understand, after all, she is her most beloved daughter, if it weren't for the Bai family's many affairs, it would be difficult to go away, I'm afraid I would be in the mood to set off today.

Mrs. Han is also a cheerful person, and hurriedly said: "It's all according to the old lady's arrangement." ”

On this day, Mrs. Han and Zhao Chongli sent Zhao Zhenzhen back to the Zhongyi Mansion.

Zhao Zhenzhen was very excited, she had long wanted to see the desert scenery, the beautiful scenery of the grassland, the northwest is the place where the Zhongyi family made a fortune, she wanted to see it too much. and the second aunt who has always loved her, the most legendary woman in the world, Wen Hui, can learn from her, which is something she is very willing and very happy about.
