In addition to the joy of the prisoners of war in the city, the civilian families were also happy, and there were not a few of the tens of thousands of people who were ready to marry, and now the lord of the city announced that he would give each family a subsidy of silver, cloth, meat, and the like. These are really a relief for those poor people. Many families were originally engaged, but the family was really unable to get married, and now with these two silver papers, it is enough to buy a banquet and get married. There are still many young people of school-age who don't even have family affairs, and now they see that they have the subsidy of the city lord's mansion, and they can calculate it for their own family, and if they save some money, they can also look at each other, make a marriage, and prepare to get married.

For a while, there were more happy events in the city, and Qiu Bi said to Chen Wenhui one day: "Girl, since our policy was promulgated, do you know how much I have distributed in the past few days just to distribute one or two silver pieces of paper to each household that has become married?" ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly asked, "How many?" ”

Qiu Bi smiled and said, "It's more than three hundred taels." ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "So there will be more than 300 couples in the city this month?" In a year, we may be able to add more than 300 children. ”

Wu Lixia said: "My wedding shop has also opened a branch in Qingchun City. At that time, I also told my cousin that Qingchun City was a newly built city, and the city had not yet been built. My cousin and sister-in-law insisted on opening it, I had no choice but to follow them, as a result, the business of this happy shop has not been very good at the beginning, these days, I can't be busy, and there are too many customers who come to the happy shop. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "This is true, these more than 300 pairs, not every pair can buy things in Xipu, but one pair out of every ten pairs can be purchased in Xipu, and you can have 30 customers." It is enough to maintain the normal operation of the shop. Look at it. With the construction of our city, there are more and more ways for people to make money, and more and more people are getting married. Your wedding shop business will get better and better. Your cousin is right. ”

Wu Lixia smiled and said, "I am now grateful to have this business here, so that I can give my children a better life." ”

Wu Lixia's adopted son and daughter also came to Qingchun City with her. Originally, Wu Lixia was going to live in a tent with those female guards. But. Considering the child, Chen Wenhui still arranged a separate courtyard for Wu Lixia. Now those two children have a good relationship with Wu Lixia. Of course, they have not forgotten their deceased biological mother, but the tragic experience when they were children made them cherish Wu Lixia's kindness to them even more. The mother and son get along very well. Although Wu Lixia used to be gentle, she was always too cold. Now it is full of maternal love and very warm.

Chen Wenhui quipped: "Master." You're really a son with everything. ”

Wu Lixia smiled, a happy smile on her face.

It took Chen Wenhui more than ten days to sort everything out. When someone is in charge and Chen Wenhui can take a break. It's the end of the year. Chen Wenhui This is the first time she has celebrated the New Year. Although there are many people around her, tens of thousands of people accompany her. In her own city, but none of her relatives were around. She's still a little uncomfortable.

Actually, a few days earlier. With the fleet, Chen Wenhui has brought letters from her parents in the capital, as well as a large number of food, use, play, clothes, fabrics and the like. There are also letters brought to her by Chen Wenjun and Wan Meizhen in Xinguang City, as well as a lot of things to eat, wear, use, and play. It was the second brother Chen Wenlin who brought gifts from Tianshui City to the fleet.

In Chen Yuanheng and Bai's letter to Chen Wenhui, they said that the emperor attached great importance to the child in Shi Guifei's belly, and now, most people in the palace know that Shi Guifei's belly is a girl. Under normal circumstances, giving birth to a princess is definitely not as favored as giving birth to a prince, but I don't know what's going on, the emperor's favor for Shi Guifei is beyond the norm, that is, when Shi Guifei was the favorite of the third prince, she didn't have such grace. There is a lot of talk about this in the government and the opposition. However, Empress Chen and the crown prince Liu Yan both have an agreeing attitude towards this, after all, the birth of a princess is not a threat to the throne, and the emperor is not afraid of no matter how much he favors him. Therefore, Concubine Shi is now not only favored by the emperor, but also taken care of by Empress Chen and the crown prince, and her strength is strong. Even Master Qiu, the painting teacher with Chen Wenhui, was wiped out. The treatment of the painting hall has improved a lot all of a sudden, and many of the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital have sent their children to study in the painting hall in order to tie up the stone concubines, after all, for the children of the nobles, it is also a good thing to learn one more painting, an elegant thing. There are more people who take the paintings collected at home to the painting hall, and the painting hall has attracted the attention of all the dignitaries in the capital at once.

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but laugh when she saw this, she didn't expect that this matter could promote the progress of the painting hall, it was really unexpected.

Chen Yuanheng also said in the letter that although his official position has not changed now, his power is much greater, and many of the emperor's government affairs are handed over to the crown prince Liu Yan to take care of, so the Xiao Chen family suddenly became hot in the capital. Of course, the mansion is even more beautiful.

Bai also told Chen Wenhui in the letter that Queen Chen is now the only one in the harem, and the women outside the palace have to look at Queen Chen's face, so the Yangshan Hall run by Queen Chen is also sought after by the noblewomen. Therefore, the funds of Yangshan Hall are increasing, and the opening is getting better and better. It's just that Mingzhu can't be busy alone, and there is no way, so the Bai family can only take over part of the management.

Chen Wenhui didn't expect this. However, this is the same as the painting hall, it is all because of the side effects brought about by the change of situation in the palace, of course, it is a good side effect, which is what Chen Wenhui is willing to see. I believe that with the help of my mother, Yangshantang will definitely be able to develop better and better.

Chen Wenjun and Wan Meizhen wrote to the letter, saying that they asked Chen Wenhui to take a boat to Xinguang City for the New Year. However, where can Chen Wenhui leave the people of a city to celebrate the New Year with his brother and sister-in-law. Chen Wenjun also told Chen Wenhui that he had sent people to the Wa Kingdom to carry out activities, and when the New Year was over, he himself would go to the Wa Kingdom in person, believing that with the help of the Jing family, it would definitely go a lot.

Chen Wenhui felt that the eldest brother was really lucky when he saw this, and just wanted to make a move on the Wa Kingdom, so he came to a well Saburo. This is the Japanese who is looking for death by himself, and he can't blame others.

Chen Wenlin's letter also asked Chen Wenhui to go to him for the New Year. It's just that he asked a lot of questions about managing the city in the letter, and from these questions, it can be seen that Chen Wenlin is very busy with his work and should be in a state of anxiety. Thinking of this, Chen Wenhui couldn't help laughing.

Chen Wenhui spent a day just looking at various gifts. This somewhat diluted her longing for her family. Not to mention, unexpectedly, Chen Wenhui also received a gift from Zhao Chongyi from the northwest from Da Chu's fleet.

This gift was brought over by Zhao Chongyi with the caravan of the Ma family. Along with the gift there was also a letter from Zhao Chongyi. Zhao Chongyi didn't say anything about lovesickness in the letter, I'm afraid he was afraid that the letter would be seen on the road. However, the letter was very long, talking about some of the customs of the Northwest, as well as their lives, as well as thanking Chen Wenhui for the inner armor, armor, and weapons that he customized. Especially the inner armor, it is really invulnerable, and it is very light to wear, which is difficult for the people of the black family to make. At the end of the letter, I also asked, how did Chen Wenhui spend the New Year, and how was the construction of the new city?

After Chen Wenhui read the letter, she was speechless for a long time. A kind of love fermented in her heart, and her eyes felt a little astringent.

The maids around her were very interesting, and they didn't bother her, leaving her alone in front of the window.

After coming over for a long time, Chen Wenhui cheered up and looked at the gift that Zhao Chongyi brought her. Opening the small box, Chen Wenhui was a little surprised, only to see four things neatly stacked. One is a hairpin encrusted with huge gemstones. The shape is very peculiar, it should be a unique style of the barbarians, which may be Zhao Chongyi's trophy. There was also a horsewhip inlaid with many precious stones, which must have been the property of the barbarians. There are also a few rough gemstones, which may have been exchanged by Zhao Chongyi in the northwest. Chen Wenhui remembered that these things were still produced in the desert in the northwest. In addition to these, there is also a clamp made of exquisite jade, when I opened it, Chen Wenhui was stunned, it turned out to be a beautiful flower, probably because of the jade clip in the house, the flower was a little wilted, but it still maintained a beautiful form.

This kind of beautiful and huge flower, Chen Wenhui looked very familiar, and after thinking for a long time, she didn't understand what it was, at this time, Xia He suddenly said: "Girl, this flower should be a snow lotus, right?" Chen Wenhui suddenly remembered, yes, this is a special snow lotus on the Northwest Snow Mountain, she had actually seen it in her previous life, but she didn't expect that such a precious thing could come to Luzon Island thousands of miles away and maintain such a beautiful form.

Chen Wenhui said: "This is a snow lotus, but how is it preserved?" ”

Xia He took a look, reached out and touched the box, and said, "This should be the legendary Hanyu." I've heard it too. It is said that there is cold jade in the northwest and the north, and this kind of jade can hold things without rotting. This jade clip is cold to start with, it should be cold jade. In fact, the value of this clip is even higher than that snow lotus. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said: "The clip is precious and cherished, but I still think the snow lotus is more beautiful." ”

Xia He pursed his lips and smiled: "It's not that the snow lotus is more beautiful, it's that General Zhao's mind is more beautiful." ”

Chen Wenhui suddenly got up embarrassed, and scolded with a smile: "The little girl dares to make fun of me?" Don't pour me tea, and put all these things away for me separately. The clip is still covered. It's hot here, don't let this beautiful snowdrop wither. ”

Xia He smiled and cleaned up. (To be continued)
