Chapter 31: Settling In

Wang Qiang returned to Beijing at the end of the year, and has been busy until the eighth day of February next year, all kinds of matters have been basically implemented, Tian Jingming wrote that Tongzhou's house has been built, and Wang Qiang decided to return to Tongzhou Council.

On the ninth day of February, Wang Qiang entered the palace to bid farewell to Chongzhen, and then set off back to Tongzhou. When he came to Beijing, he only brought a few entourages, but now he has a family, maids, mothers-in-law, pots and pans and all kinds of household belongings, and he has loaded more than a dozen carts and returned to Tongzhou in a mighty way.

Wang Qiang and Cai Ling'er sat in a spacious car, covered by thick sedan curtains, and the light was a little dim, but it was very warm. Cai Ling'er thought that she would go to Tongzhou and live with Wang Qiang, a eunuch, for the rest of her life, and she was sad in her heart, and she sat dumbfounded without saying a word. Wang Qiang had the intention to tease her, and deliberately sighed and said, "Alas! Marry me, this eunuch, you feel a loss, don't you? ”

CRBT turned her head and said nothing.

"I know you don't want to."

"Then, why didn't you resign this marriage to the emperor at that time!" Cai Ling'er looked straight ahead and said with a smile.

Wang Qiang smiled evilly and said, "Hehe, you don't want to, but I do!" You are such a fragrant, watery beauty, why don't I want it! Besides, the emperor gave marriage, that is Chrysostom, I will resign? That's called not to cover your face, the emperor is angry, maybe he will give me a click! In order to survive, I have no choice but to wronged you, alas, you just admit this fate! ”

"Alas! What if you don't accept your fate? Cai Ling'er sighed, her eyes rolled, her lips trembled, but tears flowed down her eyes.

Wang Qiang looked distressed and felt that it was time to tell her the truth, he took Cai Ling'er's hand and said softly: "Hey! Hi! Don't cry yet, I'll tell you something, don't shout after hearing it. ”

Cai Ling'er raised her teary eyes and looked at Wang Qiang, only to see Wang Qiang lift the hem of the robe, take Cai Ling'er's hand, and touch his crotch, Cai Ling'er touched the fleshy ball through her underwear, and was startled at first, and couldn't help but grope carefully, that thing was suddenly up under her soft touch, Cai Ling'er knew that something was wrong, under the careful touch, her heart was already clear, and she couldn't help but be happy and ashamed, screamed happily, and grabbed the thing hard, Wang Qiang grinned in pain and screamed: "Alas, my wife!" You're going to murder your husband! ”

Wang Qiang was even annoyed and annoyed by the excitement, grabbed the ringtones with both hands, let her straddle her lap, lifted the front of the ringtones's clothes and kissed wildly, the ringtones were surprised, couldn't stand the teasing, and actually made a loud voice, both of them were young and lovely, and they were forgetful in the love, so they had any scruples, and they got up in the carriage!

------

The driver of the car was an old man in his fifties, sitting on the wheel, he heard the sound of men and women in the carriage behind him, and thought: "Our master is a eunuch, this eunuch can still make such a big movement, it is really not simple, and I don't know what means are used?" With a dirty thought in his heart, he couldn't help but laugh evilly, raised his whip, whipped it vigorously on the horse's buttocks, and shouted vigorously: "Oh! ”

The group walked slowly, until noon did they arrive at the boundary of the Special Administrative Region, Tian Jingming monk Dayong had already taken a group of staff to wait at the intersection, everyone wanted to greet Wang Qiang, but the accompanying family members mysteriously waved their hands, signaling everyone not to interfere with their master, Tian Jingming and others were inexplicable, so they had to lead the way in front of the group and lead the group to the gate of the newly built mansion. The car stopped, the family put a ladder outside the car, and whispered in front of the car curtain to call the lord and Mrs. to get off, but there was no movement in the car, everyone stared at the car curtain, did not dare to make a sound, and after a while, I saw Wang Qiang bow down and open the car curtain, and came out with the ringtone. Everyone saw that the colored bells were messy, the skirt was untidy, and the cheeks were red, while Wang Qiang was full of ambition and joy, with red lip prints on his face, and he guessed eight or nine points in his heart, and couldn't help but smile. The Cai Ling'er secretly glanced at it, and saw that everyone was looking at him with bad intentions, and he suddenly felt ashamed, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he didn't dare to look up by Wang Qiang tightly. Wang Qiang smiled proudly: "Hehe, Lao Tian, Lao Shang, everyone has worked hard, this one is given by the emperor, my newlywed wife." ”

Tian Jingming bowed down and said: "Lord and Mrs. have been tired all the way, hard work, please ------ first" Before he finished speaking, everyone had already thought of another meaning from his words, and they couldn't help laughing. Wang Qiang also smiled strangely: "Hahahaha, is it hard, it's a little bit, but it's good." The crowd burst into laughter again.

Everyone laughed enough, and Tian Jingming continued: "My lord, your house has just been built, you visit first, the interior decoration has not been done, and I want to wait for you to make a decision before implementing it." ”

Only then did Wang Qiang notice the mansion they had built for himself, and saw that the gatehouse was tall and spacious, and on both sides of the door were two large lions carved in stone. The vermilion lacquered door is heavy, and the door is inlaid with copper nails the size of a bowl. Tian Jingming monk Dayong took Wang Qiang and Cai Ling'er into the gate, led them to visit, and introduced them as they walked. This house was actually built with five entrances, the outermost courtyard wall is made of blue bricks and stones, nearly one meter thick, the outer wall is octagonal, and a tall enemy tower is built on each corner, which can garrison soldiers and lookouts, and there are archery holes. The first entrance in the courtyard is the place where the guards are stationed, with barracks, stables and sentry posts; The second entrance is modeled on the regulations of the official yamen, with a lobby, a conference room, a study and a living room, which is used as a place for Wang Qiang to meet people and work; The third is a place of recreation, with a garden, a kitchen, a living room, a dining room, a storehouse, and the dwellings of the housekeepers and servants; The fourth is the inner house of Wang Qiang and his family, which is a place to rest and sleep; The fifth entrance is just a small courtyard, in which several storerooms are built, which are used to store precious items and handle confidential affairs. The whole house looks like a castle from the outside, tall and sturdy, magnificent, and the inside is like a royal palace, carved beams and painted columns, blue bricks and blue tiles, beautiful. The more Wang Qiang looked at it, the more frightened he became, and said in his heart: "How much does this cost, besides, my house is so luxuriously repaired, the emperor is afraid that he will be angry with me when he knows about it." Why didn't these people inform me before they built! ”

It turned out that during Wang Qiang's visit to the capital, the emperor talked about letting Wang Qiang build a house, and Wang Qiang also passed the news to Tian Jingming, they considered that since they were ordered to build a house for adults, they didn't have to save it, how good it was, the materials were ready-made, and all the craftsmen were grateful for Wang Qiang's kindness, so they were naturally very attentive and hardworking, and everyone worked together to build the house in only one month.

That Shang Dayong didn't know Wang Qiang's thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Lord Wang, are you still satisfied with this house?" ”

Wang Qiang frowned and said, "It's too big and extravagant to build, how much does it cost?" ”

Tian Jingming saw Wang Qiang's worries, and said on the side: "Lord Wang, don't worry, although this house is nominally built for you, it is not for you alone. Look at this outer wall, it can be used as a castle against foreign enemies at that time; The first courtyard is actually for the garrison, and the second courtyard is for the office; The innermost courtyard will be used as a place to store important assets of the Special Economic Zone in the future, so this house is a place where several functions are put together, and it is only when it is large. Moreover, although the materials and the scale of the building are exquisite, there is no violation of the regulations. If you are not at ease, you can ask the emperor for instructions first, and then live after approval, how about it? ”

Wang Qiang felt that since it had been built, it would be impossible to demolish it again, so he had to say: "Okay, you can transcribe a copy of the drawings of this house to me, and I will ask for a decree to live in the future." ”

Tian Jingming and the others saw that Wang Qiang was so cautious, and they also secretly admired it.

Cai Ling'er didn't pay attention to these at all, she really became a bride today, and her heart was all on Wang Qiang, feeling that no matter where she lived, as long as she could be by Wang Qiang's side, she would be satisfied.

That night, Wang Qiang wrote an excerpt to Chongzhen, and also attached the drawings of the house, and the review of the excerpt was due to his own negligence, resulting in the house being built too big, and the cost was very much, and he expressed his willingness to pay for the cost of building the house. According to his understanding of Chongzhen, in this kind of matter, the more humble and introspective, the more the emperor will not blame, and the more he conceals and deceives, it will invite unwarranted disasters. Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen replied, not only did not blame, but gently comforted, saying that this house was a gift for Wang Qiang's newlywed.

With the emperor's will, Wang Qiang's family moved into the new house, and Wang Qiang handed over all matters such as settling down to Cai Ling'er. Cai Linger is a female official in the palace, has a lot of experience, now she is the beginning of a housewife, the heart is high, she took out a spicy and capable energy, the family support the group turn, here is a bookcase, there is a pergola, where to plant flowers and plants, which houses should store what things, vigorous and resolute and orderly, the special zone is rich in materials, everything you want is handy, only a few days of work to take care of a mansion in Nuoda in an orderly manner, Wang Qiang in his eyes, happy in his heart, thought: "Don't say, My wife is really capable, if in modern society, I can marry such a daughter-in-law, my parents will not be happy and can't sleep. Leng Buding thought of his parents, Wang Qiang's injury. He suddenly remembered that Gao Gonggong and Xiao Shanzi, after the two of them left the palace, they settled in Xishan, put a few acres of thin fields to live by collecting rent, and lived a hard and lonely life. Wang Qiang told Cai Ling'er about this, and Cai Ling'er was naturally happy, and the next day he sent someone to Xishan to pick up Gao Gonggong and Xiao Shanzi to the house. Gonggong Gao thanked Wang Qiang and his wife for their kindness, and said that he didn't want to stay in vain, so he received the messenger in charge of the money and grain warehouse in the house. Xiao Shanzi envied Wang Qiang's prosperity and wanted to experience outside, so Wang Qiang arranged for him to be an entourage and follow the class.

After settling down at home, Wang Qiang began to devote himself to the construction of the Special Economic Zone again.
