Chapter 346: Immigration
In Liu Yan's house, Wang Yaozhen was walking in the cleaned yard with her bulging belly, and Cui Qiao was carefully holding on. After a while, Cui Qiao saw that the snow began to fall in the sky, so she said, "Auntie, let's go back to the house, this is starting to snow, slide carefully." ”
Wang Yaozhen nodded.
When the two of them returned to the house, Wang Yaozhen's eldest maid Cui Dai hurriedly helped Wang Yaozhen to step on it, took the hand stove, and handed over a glass of warm water.
Yaozhen asked, "Cui Dai, did Aunt Li make trouble again today?" ”
Cui Dai said: "Today, Aunt Li ran in front of the princess and said that it was the new aunts who bullied her. Crying like a cat. The princess had no choice but to comfort her, and called the aunts over to give them a lecture, so that they could understand the order and not break the rules. But Concubine Bai also passed, spoke for the aunt she helped up, and said a few words to the princess, the princess's cup of anger fell, and Concubine Bai said that she was shocked, yelling that her stomach hurt, and went back to her yard. ”
Yaozhen smiled coldly and said, "Let them go." Shuyu, this two hundred and five, which day stopped? We were all blind at the beginning, how did we play with her? ”
Cui Qiao's brows moved slightly, but he didn't make a sound.
Yaozhen said again: "The prince is still more concerned about the child in the belly of Concubine Baifang?" ”
Cui Qiao said: "They are all the children of the prince, the white concubine has a higher position, and she was born in the Bai family, and her status is noble, so she should care more." After all, this child is the link between the prince and the Bai family, with the princess's child from the Chen family, and then with the child of the Bai family from the side concubine, the prince's position is much more stable, so. This fetus cannot be lost, the aunt should not fight for a moment, be more patient, and take care of the fetus. In the future, raise the little boy well and live his own pure life. Don't come out of anything, focus on forbearance. ”
Wang Yaozhen's irritable mood was calmed down by Cui Qiao's words, nodded slowly, and asked Cui Xi: "You go home today, how is your home?" ”
Cui Xi said: "I sent the things that my aunt gave to my grandmother, the things I gave to the old lady, and the things I gave to my wife, and they all cared about my aunt's body and asked me to bring back a lot of medicinal materials to replenish my body. I'm all registered. Handed it over to Miss Cuiqiao. ”
Wang Yaozhen nodded and asked, "What are my eldest brother and my father busy with?" ”
Cui Xi said: "The eldest young master now has no messy aunts in the room, and he is very affectionate with the eldest and youngest grandmothers, and the eldest and youngest grandmothers have everyone's demeanor, and when they fall out of favor, they are still like that." It's admirable to look at. The eldest young master and the old master have been very busy recently, because Lord Thorn Shi Chen borrowed a large amount of money from the bank in the name of the Thorn Shi Mansion to pay settlement allowances to those who are willing to go to Yizhou Island to open up wasteland, and the eldest young master also helped organize a fleet to transport people. ”
Wang Yaozhen said: "The eldest brother finally understood some truth, I didn't know if my heart was blinded by lard before, and I didn't know who gave our Wang family's current qiē." ”
After speaking, he quietly glanced at Cui Qiao. I saw Cui Qiao holding a tea cup in her hand and making fruit tea for her again, concentrating, as if she hadn't heard. Wang Yaozhen couldn't help but secretly think in her heart, I don't know how this Chen family is so good at conditioning maids, these people are all human spirits who come out one by one. Wang Yaozhen knows the power of the flying light and the red purple jade, this little girl is cuiqiao. is young, only thirteen or fourteen years old, and is still the child of the master of his own oil mill, not only medical skills, but also martial arts are very good. This mind is also very calm, stronger than his own Cui Xi and Cui Dai.
Thinking of this, Wang Yaozhen remembered her friend Wen Hui again, so she said: "Sister Wen Hui is really capable, compared to her, I really want to die of shame." You see that she takes good care of Shanghai City, not to mention, she went to Yizhou Island to expand her territory, and this daughter went to expand her territory, I really haven't heard of it? I haven't heard of that drama yet, have you heard of it? ”
Cui Xi hurriedly smiled and said: "Where have you heard of it, in my opinion, this Wen Hui girl must be the smartest girl in our Da Chu." But in the past two years, I have seen it, and my appearance has become more and more beautiful, and I don't know what kind of family I can marry in the future? ”
Cui Qiao was still unmoved, Cui Dai said: "Where can ordinary people afford it, I see, only when you are a mother is worthy of Miss Wenhui's family, this talent, this credit." ”
When Cui Qiao heard this, she knew that she couldn't do it without speaking, so she smiled lightly and said, "We girls, you know, smart is the only one in the world, but sometimes it's ridiculous." She is not shy at all, and insists on finding a rich husband in the future, which you say is ridiculous. But our lord and wife all spoil her, and she really plans to come like this. ”
Wang Yaozhen was shocked, and she couldn't tell if this was true or false. She is most afraid that Wen Hui will also marry into the Jin Mansion of the Four Princes in the future, if one day, the prince of her family really achieves his wish and reaches that position, then the first person in this harem must be her friend Wen Hui. Even the princess couldn't touch the edge, at that time, she was really bitter. But her guess for a period of time, when she came to Cui Qiao, actually had such an answer, it was unbelievable. But one thing is for sure, Wen Hui definitely didn't have the heart to enter the palace.
Thinking of this, Yaozhen's mood relaxed and said, "Cuiqiao, is that the little girl Wen Hui's family stupid?" Where can she really do this in the future. What kind of fruit tea do you have in your hand? Can you still make fruit tea in this winter? ”
Cui Qiao sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she said with a smile: "Auntie, try it, this is longan red date tea, which is the most nourishing." ”
Wang Yaozhen is here to make up for herself, and Liu Yan is still discussing things with Liu Jingyuan in the study: "Ah Yuan, why do you say that the two brothers and sisters Wen Hui and Wen Jun are so powerful, and they have subdued the biggest force on Yizhou Island so quickly. This black family actually moved over from the previous dynasty, and it was the most powerful Mo family in the previous hundred families. The Chen family's power has increased greatly. ”
Liu Jingyuan said: "Yes, now Chen Wenjun is still ahead of me, this is a great achievement in expanding the territory." However, if we want to truly make Yizhou Island a force in Dachu, we still have to let the people of Dachu live there. ”
Liu Yan nodded.
Liu Jingyuan said: "We don't have many people in Dachu, and the population of Heyang was originally very large, but the previous drought has greatly reduced the population of Heyang Prefecture, so it is impossible to move some people from Heyang Prefecture." Now we can only use the people of Huzhou. There are already many people in Huzhou, and in recent years, hospitals have risen, and people can see a doctor without money, so there are a lot fewer people who die, especially newborn babies, who die very little. Speaking of which, I also admire, why is my mother-in-law so powerful, can think of a woman with a difficult birth to use a knife to gouge out the child? In this way, most of the adults and children can be saved, even if some women die of infection after surgery, the children can also be saved. As a result, Huzhou's population has increased a lot. However, the increase is all small milk dolls. Originally, an ordinary person could give birth to ten or eight children, but only two or three could survive. ”
Liu Yan laughed and said: "I heard an old farmer say that half the size eats the poor, and this is really the case. ”
Liu Jingyuan said: "Yes, in this way, a family, two husbands and wives with three or four children, relying on a few acres of land, can barely make a living, but now the number of children has increased, but the land has not increased, many families can't survive, and there are many people who sell their children." Now it's time to move all such people to Yizhou Island. The land there is vast and sparsely populated, and the settlement fee is also paid, and you can open up the wasteland if you go, and the food you grow cannot be eaten, and the family will not starve to death, which really attracts a lot of people to go. ”
Liu Yan said: "Originally, it was difficult to complete such a relocation, after all, the people are difficult to leave their homeland, and they will not leave their homeland unless they have to, but because your mother-in-law came forward to persuade and vouched for us officials, this made those people believe that they took the initiative to sign up to go to Yizhou Island." Speaking of which, I'm ashamed, we, the officials, the prince, are not as trusted by the people as your mother-in-law. ”
When it comes to his mother-in-law, Liu Jingyuan is 120,000 points of admiration: "My mother-in-law is a life-saving bodhisattva in the hearts of the people." You know the bodhisattvas of Buddhism, right? That's God, and we, the officials, including you, are just human beings. Can God be the same as man? ”
Speaking of this, Liu Yan also joked and said: "I don't know if this god's daughter is also a god, I think she will take care of you to death." You're still enjoying it. ”
Liu Jingyuan smiled and said, "I don't know if it's a god, but I know that she is now my parents' baby bump, and even me and my sister have to step aside." You see, our family's business has always been half-dead, but fortunately, our family has some family background, a small population, and low expenses, so it has survived for so many years, but you see, when it came to her hands, it immediately became a cornucopia of money, and now I don't know how profitable the exported tea is. I wondered for a while if I would be richer than you. In this way, my father was very happy, he was always afraid that the business passed down from his ancestors would not be smashed in his hands, and now he was finally relieved, not only did not smash, but also carried forward, and Mingzhu also took the opportunity to acquire a lot of tea mountains and tea fields. That's it, she's pregnant again now, which makes my parents very happy, and hurriedly rushed over from the capital, every day is to make up, spoiled, I even have to be controlled by my parents when I say a word, for fear of being frightened. ”
