Chapter 182: Thousand Taels of Silver
Chapter 182 Thousand Taels of Silver
The concubine has a low status in the family, only a little better than a slave, and does not have to do the work of waiting. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe actual status of the favored minions is much higher than that of the concubines who have fallen out of favor.
Huan Lang has no biological mother and can't speak, so it is conceivable that his life will not be much better. Fortunately, Zhang Zhixian still favored him, and this partiality became the source of his guilt.
Lu Qing didn't suffer much, and he couldn't realize what it was like to be excluded in his own home. However, he knows that the concubine also has the right to divide the family property, which is probably the real reason why some people always want to put Huan Lang to death.
Lu Qing didn't care about the Zhang family's family affairs, nor Huanlang's fate, he only cared about Zhou Ning. He blinked and said, "Is it really that simple?" Will there be trouble? ”
Lu Qing is worried about Huan Lang's true identity, who knows if he is Zhang Zhixian's son? Will there be any trouble for him to keep around?
"If you think so much, you'll get old quickly, so go to bed quickly." Zhou Ning's sleepiness came up again, he had too little rest in the past two days.
Lu Qing raised his hand to tidy up the bed curtain, yawned and went outside, he was also very tired, so tired that Zhou Ning got up the next day, and he was still asleep.
After he woke up, he found that Zhou Ning had left the bedroom, he finished washing and hurried to the kitchen to see if breakfast was ready, and specially instructed the kitchen people to ask Huan Lang what he liked to eat and make him a single one.
When he went to the study, he saw that Zhou Ning had written several words, which were spread all over the table. He walked over and saw that what Zhou Ning had written turned out to be a notice.
The content on the notice was very simple, and the number of words was not much, so Lu Qing read it gently.
"Benzhi County was ordered by the imperial court to buy a big horse with a wide ridge and a red hair, and the four-year-old and five-year-old were given priority.
Lu Qing chuckled, Childe is really interesting. He knew that the imperial court didn't want any horses, this was purely written by Zhou Ning himself. If he writes a three, two, five, two, or two, Lu Qing really believes that the notice he wrote is intended to be posted.
The old man who came to sue yesterday lost a horse at home, and who stole it, and still have no clue.
Zhou Ning definitely couldn't find that horse, no matter how capable Zhou Ning was, he was just a mortal, and he was not an immortal, so where could he tell where his horse had gone.
If he can buy a similar horse in three, two, five, and two, Lu Qing believes that Zhou Ning is willing to pay this money, first, he has a lot of money, and second, he is soft-hearted, it is possible for him to buy a horse for the common people out of his own pocket.
But a mouth is a thousand taels of silver, which is absolutely impossible. First, he doesn't have enough money, and second, he is not a fool, there is no need for him to spend this sky-high price to buy a horse for the common people.
And if he really had the idea of posting this notice, it would be enough to write one or two, so why write seven or eight and still write?
Yunjiang County is not much bigger, one is posted at the entrance of the ya, and one is posted at the gate of the city, which is the usual routine of posting notices, and I have not heard of anyone pasting notices all over the city.
Lu Qing picked up a flat sheet and put it on the coffee table to dry, although he didn't know calligraphy, he could see that Zhou Ning's handwriting was good. He stood there and looked at the notice with a grin: "Childe's words are becoming more and more refined." ”
Zhou Ning continued to write as if he hadn't heard it, and Lu Qing praised him for being immune to him a long time ago, and he had nothing to be proud of.
Lu Qing took three of the words on the table and put them elsewhere to dry, he returned to the table and watched Zhou Ning write. After looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but say, "Childe, are you practicing calligraphy this morning?" ”
"Hmm." Zhou Ning only hummed lightly, ignored him, and continued to write his words.
Lu Qing tilted his neck and watched, and Zhou Ning wrote the 'notice' over and over again, even if we are practicing calligraphy, there is no need to write all of them exactly the same, right?
"Childe, can't you write something else? What are you going to do with so many useless announcements? ”
Zhou Ning finished writing a word, then picked up the pen and said, "Who said this is a useless announcement?" After a while, let the officials post these announcements. ”
"What?" Lu Qing's jaw almost smashed on the surface of his feet, a thousand taels of silver to buy a horse, unless he is crazy, what kind of BMW horse can be worth a thousand taels of silver?
Besides, Zhou Ning didn't need any famous horses, did he want to spend a thousand taels of silver to buy a horse for that old man? What is the relationship between the old man and Zhou Ning? Is Zhou Ning's head filled with yellow mud?
"Were you bitten by a cat? What a fuss. Zhou Ning continued to write calmly, but Lu Qing couldn't calm down.
Lu Qing pressed the corner of the table with both hands, his eyes were so big that if there was no eye frame to stop him, his eyes would easily fall to the ground. Lu Qing leaned forward and asked cautiously, "Childe, aren't you joking?" ”
"Which one is joking with you?" Zhou Ning replied seriously.
Lu Qing blinked and blinked, and he suddenly smiled: "Childe is just joking, how can this be true?" ”
Zhou Ning didn't argue with him, and after writing one, he picked up the official seal and pressed it. Lu Qing was simply stupid, the official seal was not a random object to joke about.
Now this notice has full legal effect, if someone takes this notice and leads a red horse over, there is a reason to ask Zhou Ning to pay.
Zhou Ning saw through Lu Qing's thoughts at a glance, and he smiled faintly: "Why doesn't Lu Ye still believe it?" ”
It's not that I don't believe it, but I can't believe it. Lu Qing swallowed his saliva and said a little dumbfounded: "Childe, when did you fall in love with the horse?" ”
It is also the nature of men to love horses, and many high-ranking officials and nobles have to raise a few precious horses at home, which is a symbol of status. Not to mention a thousand taels of silver for a horse, even tens of thousands of taels are a lot.
It is reasonable for Zhou Ning to want to raise a good horse, and he is not short of money, so he can buy it if he likes it. It's just that Zhou Ning prefers to sit in a sedan chair, and rarely rides a horse.
Lu Qing always thought that Zhou Ning didn't like to ride a horse, but now he suddenly realized that Zhou Ning didn't think the horse was good enough. Now he's going to get himself a better horse.
Zhou Ning took the official seal and stamped it one after another, and he chuckled: "I don't have so many habits, this horse was not bought for me." ”
"Oh." Lu Qing finally figured out that Zhou Ning wanted to buy a good horse and give it away. It's just that I don't know who he's going to give it to, and with his temperament, he shouldn't be able to tie up with the powerful, eight times out of ten. Nine was bought for the old man, right?
Lu Qing thought about it, it was not quite right, the old man never liked to ride a horse, he was still sitting in a sedan chair at such an old age.
