Among Yang Chengzu's several women, Miao and Iron Coral are representatives of perfect women in the hearts of some people, and they are also the portrayal of most ordinary women in this era: they are obedient to their husbands and do everything. Yang Chengzu flew Huang Tengda, of course they were happy, if he did evil, drank and gambled, and even beat or scolded them, these two people would only choose to endure with tears.

Even if she is full of fists and martial arts like Iron Coral, she doesn't dare to use a finger on her husband, and she also asks for anything between the pillows, so she can do whatever she wants, and she will never ask for anything from her husband. Occasionally make a little vinegar lady's temper, Yang Chengzu only needs to sink his face slightly, and these two people will be frightened and immediately admit their mistakes. So from them, I basically don't hear any useful information.

Zhao Laomi, who has changed his name to Zhao Miniang, does not leave the shackles of the people of the rivers and lakes, and only thinks about being a famous man, and he himself will have glory. Now that she goes out occasionally, there are a bunch of people who call her Yang Chengzu's wife, the partial house of the first good man in Henan, and she is happy, as for Yang Chengzu's official and small officials, she has no concept.

Only Ruxian is a truly knowledgeable person, in addition to being a strong general in the boudoir and being able to be a rival to Yang Chengzu, he also has quite a lot of arrangements in his planning.

"Although the dowry sent by the Ninth Master is Zhao's, you are her man, her things are your things, and it is only natural for you to use them, and the Ninth Master can't say anything. Besides, I have money myself, don't be stingy with gold and silver, as long as you can buy a good future, you can get back as much as you want. Now is probably the time to talk about the merits, if you miss it, you can't regret it. ”

In this grain shortage in Henan, Ruxian has a huge income, and half of the people in Huaxian County owe her debts. In addition to those bad debts that were hanged and thrown into the river, she collected dozens of hectares of land alone, but she had no merit on her head, and she did not enjoy preferential treatment such as tax reductions and exemptions.

But I don't know how many houses and shops she receives, as for the daughters and daughters-in-law of those good families, I don't know how many other people she came to pay the debt, the so-called sacrificing his life to protect the people Yang Chengzu, robbing men and women is like a fairy, this reputation has spread in Huaxian County. She has made a fortune now, and she has the confidence to speak.

Yang Chengzu said: "There is some money, and the gift has to be thoughtful, like Shen Dongkui, I am afraid that giving him silver will be a bad thing." It takes a little thought to give him a gift, but the people around him can send some silver, from the door to the long follow, and I am not afraid that he will not give me a care. ”

Ruxian said: "If you don't like silver, you can buy his words." Isn't he a governor, if you ask him for a word, and then pay him to polish the pen, he will definitely agree. The temper of these literati can't hide from me, and they want money and fame, which is more difficult to deal with than those who only need money and no fame. But it's not hard to find the right way. By the way, I have something to tell you, Sister Peony is not married. ”

"Not married? She fell out with the little businessman? I'll take someone to teach him a lesson, so that he knows that our woman is not something he can marry if he wants to, at least he has to take some loss money. ”

"That's not it, the two didn't quarrel, they talked in the teahouse two days ago, and the merchant cried a mess. It is rare for a man to shed so many tears. So in this matter, I guess the problem lies with Sister Peony, not with this unlucky guy. ”

"Okay, then before I leave, I will have a good chat with Sister Peony, such an honest person is not easy to find, this kind of opportunity should not be missed."

When he finished telling Peony about this reason, Peony's expression was very calm. "I thought you were going to say something, that's it, it's very simple, if you don't want to marry, you won't marry. If the fairy thinks that I eat too much and do too little, I can go somewhere else to earn a living. ”

"Isn't it the same as Xiangmanlou in other places, or even as good as Xiangmanlou. The merchant doesn't have much money, but he's a good man, and if he wants to get rich, I can give him a chance. ”

"He just doesn't care about my past, instead of being able to accept my past, marry me now, maybe he will be nice to me, but after a long time, this pimple will still attack. Maybe he will beat me in the future, will it be that at that time, I will have the cheekiness to ask you and Sister Ruxian to stand up for me and arrest my man in prison to teach him to be a man? ”

Red Peony smiled indifferently, showing that she didn't care about everything. "Ever since I found out that you jumped into the river to block the breach, I have decided not to marry anyone, but to stay in your house for the rest of my life, and be a maid for you. After the girl of Red Peony was stabbed, her body is not completely good now, and she is such a little girl, she can't shake the scene at all, and she still has to be a woman like me to manage the house and live in the people. ”

"Sister Peony, I don't want you to be because I ......"

"It's none of your business." Red Peony said directly: "I just thought that there was a hero who could save me from the day I was sold to the courtyard." But I've seen a lot of people, and I've never seen a really good man, for men, it doesn't matter, it's all a virtue, who is different? But it wasn't until you went down the river that I knew that there are still really good men in this world. ”

"At the beginning, I thought that since everyone is the same, then just find one to make do, and it will be a lifetime. But now that there is such a person as you as a benchmark, that honest person is not enough. I don't want to wronged myself and spend my life with a man I don't look down on, it's not fair to me and him. ”

"I also know that we can't do it, but I just want to watch you, guard you, help you guard this family business, and help you take care of your children. If you think I'm annoying, then I can disappear, as for where I go, you don't have to care, I still have a little savings, and the immortals will also give me a sum of money, and I won't do that for the sake of livelihood. In fact, I'm not ready for any man to touch me unless I die. ”

The result of this conversation was that Yang Chengzu came forward to chat with the businessman and rejected the marriage for Peony, and the Yang family had a bright and beautiful housekeeper. This housekeeper is shrewd and capable, and his methods are clever, and his various small actions can't hide her tricks.

And she herself is not stained with oil and water, and she is more loyal to the master than the family slave, and people say that now the Yang family not only has a capable fairy lady, but also a powerful peony housekeeper, this business is not prosperous, but it is also difficult.

Yang Chengzu took care of this matter, said goodbye to the female relatives of the family, and went straight to Weihui Mansion to meet the second brother Duan Biao first, and sent three local shops in Huaxian County with a few hundred taels of silver.

Duan Biao's merits this time were mixed, not only for negligence, but also for sponsoring Yang Chengzu and working diligently in disease prevention work. Seeing him come to the door, Duan Biao said: "It's just right, I also want to go to Kaifeng to walk around, this time Lao Song may have to move his position, we just have to go to meet the new Qianhu, at least a familiar face, isn't it?" ”
