At dinner, Xue Lian still hadn't returned home. Wu Shigong was no longer anxious to know what was going on with his errand. He felt that even if he had some errands, his father-in-law would have to let himself spend his honeymoon before going to work. There are many opportunities to ask your own father-in-law in the future.

After dinner, after saying goodbye to Mrs. Zhang, the young couple walked all the way back to their new house with a smile. As soon as he entered the new house, Xue Yufei suddenly said to Wu Shigong: "Husband, there are a few things for you here, concubine." Then she went into the bedroom, rummaged through the drawer under the dresser, took out a purse and a few pieces of paper, and returned to Wu Shigong.

Xue Yufei first handed the purse to Wu Shigong, and said a little shyly: "This is for my husband." ”

Zhu Yun, who was on the side, hurriedly interjected: "This purse is made by Miss herself." "I guess the master and servant may have had a rehearsal. However, maybe Wu Shigong's mental pressure on Zhu Yun in the afternoon was too great, which made Wu Shigong feel that Zhu Yun's voice was a little out of tune, so the whole show seemed a little nondescript.

Of course, Wu Shigong would not do that beautiful thing, at this time, even if the purse is made into a poached egg, he has to say yes. Wu Shigong carefully admired the purse and found that the purse was indeed well done except that the embroidery on it was a little rough. Wu Shigong praised Xue Yufei with a smile and said, "Very good! I love it. In a few days, Fei'er, you can make a few more purses like this for me, and I want to have all kinds of colors. Let me go out with a color every day, and envy others when I go out. ”

Listening to Wu Shigong's words, Xue Yufei and Zhu Yun were full of joy. Xue Yufei then said to Wu Shigong: "The concubine still has to make a few sets of new clothes and shoes for her husband, I originally wanted to do it before marriage, but I don't know the size of my husband's body, and after a few days, the concubine will measure my husband." ”

“haode。” Wu Shigong smiled and nodded. A married man is indeed different when he has the care of his wife.

Seeing that Wu Shigong had put away his purse, Xue Yufei then handed the pieces of paper to Wu Shigong and said, "These are all sent by the Wu Mansion, and my mother has confessed to you, and I want to hand them over to your husband for safekeeping." ”

Wu Shigong took the pieces of paper and looked at them, it turned out to be a few land deeds and house deeds, and two were lease contracts for the shop. It's my dowry. Wu Shigong first took the title deed of the Zhuangzi and looked at it carefully. The Zhuangzi is not big, more than 90 acres of land, not even a hectare of land, Wu Shigong didn't understand what the land price of the Ming Dynasty was, so he asked Xue Yufei: "The land in this Zhuangzi, how much silver is an acre worth?" ”

"About fifteen taels of silver." Xue Yufei replied with some certainty.

Zhu Yun has probably seen these title deeds and house deeds. interjected on the side: "Fifteen taels of silver per mu is the price of cooked land near the capital." The location of my uncle's Zhuangzi is relatively biased, so it's worth twelve or three taels. ”

That's also very good, the total value of the entire Zhuangzi is more than 1,000 taels of silver. Wu Shigong thought with satisfaction. Seeing that Zhu Yun seemed to be very familiar with these, Wu Shigong handed Zhu Yun the land deeds, house deeds, and contracts, and asked Zhu Yun: "The details of the two shops, you give it to my uncle." ”

After Zhu Yun took it, he took a closer look and said to Wu Shigong: "Uncle, those two shops, one is a fat powder shop, which is in Chongwenmen." But the strange thing is that according to the size and location of this shop, the rent of this shop is a bit high, 60 taels of silver a year. With these rents, in four or five years, you can build the same shop and come back. Wu Shigong nodded, thinking in his heart: The tenant himself is going to be brainless, and he wants to give me more silver, and I will take care of him when I am full.

"The other shop is a cloth shop, at Xuanwumen. The annual rent is seventy-eight taels. This shop is very large, covering a small area of four acres. All the things sent by Wu Mansion are the most valuable in this shop. The contracts for both shops are set until the end of this year, and the rent has been collected. Uncle, you won't be able to collect rent until next year. ”

Zhu Yun explained very clearly, and Wu Shigong was also very satisfied with it. He admired Zhuyun a little, in her, there was a vague shadow of a modern white-collar worker, Miss Office, the only regret was that she was going to grab the toilet.

Wu Shigong then instructed: "You all take these things, then when will you send a steward to take a look at the situation, and then manage it with those Zhuangzi in the Xue Mansion in the future." I'm not going to that heart. Zhu Yun, you will copy the addresses of the two shops later, put them in my purse, and when my uncle and I have time, I will go and take a look, and see the situation. ”

After a while, the maids all came over and served Wu Shigong and Xue Yufei to wash and sleep. It should be said that Wu Shigong's own adaptability is quite strong, and he has been through more than half a month, and he is basically used to the life customs of the Ming Dynasty. It's just that people at that time went to bed so early, and they were a little unaccustomed. At that time, it was basically the modern equivalent of seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and everyone was already going to bed. Of course, they wake up early. This makes Wu Shigong, who is used to enjoying nightlife in modern times, a little painful.

When washing his feet, Wu Shigong found that the maids who were washing Xue Yufei's feet on the other side of the house were chattering something in a low voice around Xue Yufei, thinking: It must be some little maids who sued for the afternoon in front of their young lady.

He lowered his head and asked Xiuzhu, who was washing his feet, "Tonight, are you here to serve?" ”

Xiuzhu immediately replied very aggrievedly: "Young master, no. It's a bamboo rhyme. She said she was the maître d'æs, so she had to queue up for the first day. ”

"It's all the same." Wu Shigong smiled and comforted, "It's your turn tomorrow." ”

Xiuzhu pouted and nodded.

"You, after you arrive at Xue Mansion, you have to make a few more friends to talk to. Young master, I have an errand soon, and I may have less time at home in the future. In fact, those maids are not bad, but they are a little small-minded. Wu Shigong secretly added in his heart: In fact, which woman has a big heart? Wu Shigong wanted to unite the maids as much as possible and not make contradictions.

Xiuzhu nodded again, thinking in his heart: Everyone else is easy to say, except for that bamboo rhyme.

After washing, Wu Shigong and Xue Yufei lay on the bed. Wu Shigong let Xue Yufei lean his back against him, and wrapped his right hand around her waist. He gently touched his palm on Xue Yufei's lower abdomen a few times and asked, "Does it still hurt now?" ”

"Hmm!" Xue Yufei nodded, "A little more." ”

"Then you should go to bed early today, last night, you stayed up so late, you must be tired."

"Actually, in fact, the concubine also took a nap in the afternoon." Xue Yufei grinned.

"Didn't your mother-in-law ask you to chat with her?"

Xue Yufei giggled, and shrank his little head down cutely. "Mother saw that the concubine had been yawning, so she asked the concubine to sleep with her for a while."

"Well, then, let's just lie down and talk for a while."

"Hmm." "The concubine heard that her husband gave Zhu Yun a piece of inkstone to each of them, and Zhu Yun and they didn't understand the meaning of her husband's gift of this thing."

"Oh, it's simple. The four maids were bullying Xiuzhu at that time, so I warned them that if they bullied again, I would smash them with an inkstone. Feeling that Xue Yufei's body in his arms was a little tight, Wu Shigong hurriedly stroked it a few times, and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, of course it's a joke." Xianggong and I have been dependent on embroidered bamboo since I was a child, so I am somewhat partial to embroidered bamboo. Xiuzhu is also pitiful, when I get here, I am not familiar with life, and I don't even have a person to talk to, so that you, the housemother, should care about Xiuzhu, so that they don't make trouble anymore. ”

"Hmm. In fact, they are also very haode. ”

"I know. I know. I'm not going to do anything to them. ”

After a while, Wu Shigong asked, "My father-in-law said: I got a job." Does Fei'er know what that errand is? ”

"I don't know about the concubine. Tomorrow, the concubine will take the time to go to her mother to ask, but I don't know if she knows. Business matters, Hou Ye rarely talks about at home. However, isn't the husband going to participate in the scientific expedition anymore? ”

Why are the people of the Ming Dynasty so enthusiastic about the imperial examination?

"Do you hope that I will come to you in a champion uniform and ride a white horse?"

"Hehehehe, how did the husband know?"

How could Wu Shigong not know? In modern times, this scene and the scene of sending 999 roses are used up rotten in TV dramas. However, Wu Shigong still thinks that it should be affordable to give 999 condoms.

"Xianggong, I really don't have a piece of reading material. However, now that I have an errand, I will definitely do a good job. It's a lot of pressure to support my family. ”

"The concubine body believes in her husband."

Wu Shigong's hand gradually climbed up the peak, and his two fingers gently twisted the peak. Xue Yufei's breathing gradually became rapid, and his whole body became hot. She turned around and said to Wu Shigong, "Husband, husband......"

"Fei'er, does it matter if you want your body?"

"It's okay, the concubine just needs to endure it."

"Then I'll take it lightly."

"Hmm."

After the tender first night, the young couple spent a warm second night.

Zhu Yun lay on the small bed in the outhouse, her eyes wide open, and she couldn't sleep. Her little hands grasped the edge of the quilt tightly, listening to the sound in the inner room, she thought to herself: Uncle's strength is so great, it is endless again and again, and the young lady can't stand it. Hum! At that time, even if my body hurts a little, I won't let the fox spirit of Xiuzhu succeed.
