Chapter 250: Prayer
On the second day of entering Beijing, Meng Zhen asked people to hand over a letter of worship to the Dingbei Hou Mansion and the Qin Wang's Mansion respectively.
The wife of the prince of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, that is, Shen Weide's wife, replied quickly, not only did she reply quickly, but she also asked her henchman to bring Meng Zhen a lot of gifts.
The gifts are not all valuable, including food, drink, wear, wear, use, play, and display, and a large part of them are specially prepared for Meng Hao's two children.
Looking at the various trinkets and toys that were obviously customized in advance, Meng Hao couldn't help but sigh to Su Shen in private, "Look, this is the power of my mother-in-law." ”
The reason why Meng Hao said this was because just before she entered Beijing, Mrs. Shen also returned to the Dingbei Hou Mansion in the capital from Guangningwei.
Although she has only been back for a month and a half, her love and attention to Meng Zhen has made Shen Weide's wife also pay attention to her sister-in-law, whom she has never met.
Of course, there is also a reason why Su Shen is angry and has a deep affection for Meng Hao.
Su Shen had already been admitted to the Jinshi at a young age and entered the Shuchang Hall attached to the Hanlin Academy to study.
In addition, although he has a slightly cold temperament, he has no shortcomings in interpersonal relationships at all.
Especially he has a close friend like the prince of Qin, the son-in-law of the east bed of the palace of Xinping County, and a powerful father-in-law like General Shen.
Such a person with both strength and background, even if he can't enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future, he can at least mix a third-grade or even second-grade.
With him as a backer for Meng Hao, Shen Weide's wife will of course become more and more polite to Meng Hao.
As for the Qin Palace, Princess Qin has always been grateful to Su Shen and Meng Hao for their various help in their mother and son, but they are very attentive to proportion, so they are also very enthusiastic about Meng Zhen.
Although limited by her identity and seniority, it was difficult for her to come to Su Mansion in person, but she asked her henchmen to bring a lot of generous gifts.
The maid was brought into the capital by Princess Qin from Ninghai County, and she was the maid and guard selected by King Qin for his wife.
This girl listened to her own hostess talk about their mother and son and Su Shen's family's various pasts, so she treated Meng Zhen respectfully with affection and gratitude.
Meng Hao was very surprised at first that a wealthy family slave like her was so respectful and kind to her, but when she thought of Princess Qin and Li Zhengshan's temperament, Meng Hao felt that this was really like they could reconcile. Qualified servants who are taught.
The kind of arrogant wealthy domestic slave she imagined was difficult to get into the eyes of Princess Qin's mother and son.
politely exchanged a few words with the leading grandmother and maid sent by these two families, and then asked people to take out different red envelopes and generously rewarded these subordinates who came to give gifts, and Meng Zhen sent Hibiscus and Shen Wu to send the subordinates of the two mansions out.
Since the people taught by Shen Wu and Meng Zhen have not yet been released, after entering Beijing, Shen Wu took her two subordinates and quietly lived in the capital Su Mansion together.
Right now, Shen Wuming's identity is the same as when he was in Ninghai County, and he is still the housekeeper mother next to Meng Hao.
"Three days after the appointment with the Hou Mansion, and five days after the appointment with the Qin Wangfu, both of them gave affirmative answers." When Su Shen returned home in the evening, Meng Zhen waited for him to change his clothes, and whispered to him about the replies to the two greeting posts.
Su Shen held his wife's hand, "Then I'll take leave to accompany you in five days." ”
Meng Hao shook her head, "It's good for you to accompany me to the Hou Mansion, where the Qin Wangfu is, the princess will definitely not treat me badly, what else do you have to worry about?" ”
Su Shen thought about it too.
If there is any other family in this capital that can make him feel at ease to entrust the safety of his wife and children, then there is no doubt that it is Li Zhengshan's mother and son.
Of course, Chen Jiabao is also very righteous and trustworthy, but after all, Chen Jiabao is only the son-in-law of the king of Xinping County, not the king of Xinping himself, and his foundation in Beijing is really shallow.
In addition to Shen Feng's shallow foundation, he also has a fatal flaw, which is his father, Master Shen.
As for Qi Yu'an, his foundation in Beijing is even more shallow than that of the Chen family.
Now the old house where he and Bai Yunzhen live in Xiao Erjin was bought back by borrowing Su Shen's silver.
Although Mr. Bai is a Jinshi, he is a poor Jinshi who is a teacher, plus he and Mrs. Bai are not young, but their son is not yet ten years old, and it is too late for these two to save money, where can they let go of their hands and feet to make up for their daughters and sons-in-law?
Of course, Qi Yu'an and Bai Yunzhen have never had the idea of Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai's private wealth, and the young couple was planning to sell part of their family property and dowry at the beginning.
Bai Yunzhen not only has affection for Qi Yu'an, but also trusts her wholeheartedly, so this girl decided to sell her dowry as soon as possible.
However, Qi Yu'an is also a stubborn temper, and bluntly said that if Bai Yunzhen sells his dowry, then he will immediately learn from Mr. Bai and return to his hometown to become a teacher.
But he wanted to sell the ancestral property of the Qi family, but Bai Yunzhen refused to agree to anything.
The Qi family is now the only one left, Qi Yu'an, and these industries are more important to Qi Yu'an than economic resources.
Such an estate that entrusts Qi Yu'an with his family, where is Bai Yunzhen willing to let him sell it to other people who don't know who?
So these two people are like this, you understand me, I understand you, and they are deadlocked with each other.
Fortunately, Su Shen is a careful person, and the economic conditions of the Bai family and the Qi family, Su Shen and Qi Yu'an are as clear as their hearts.
He took the initiative to find Qi Yu'an, and took 50,000 taels of the silver ticket he left over from the house to Qi Yu'an for emergency.
Qi Yuan knew that the Su family was rich, but he never expected that the Su family would be rich to this point.
Hearing Su Shen say that this was all earned by Meng Zhen, Qi Yuan was envious from the bottom of his heart.
Although he was satisfied with his wife's 1.2 million points, this did not prevent him from envying Su Shen's family for having a god of wealth.
He asked Su Shen, "If I borrow money, won't my sister-in-law's business be sluggish?" ”
Su Shen patted Qi Yu'an on the shoulder, "Have you forgotten that this silver ticket has been in my hands for more than half a year?" ”
Only then did Qi Yuan remember that Su Shen's silver ticket was brought into the capital by him last year.
Su Shen forced the silver ticket into Qi Yu'an's hand, "You can rest assured that you can take the flowers, you don't have to rush to pay me back." I'm not short of money, and your sister-in-law is more profitable than you think. ”
Although Qi Yu'an envied his senior brother with his real name, he did not spend money lavishly because of this.
He first found the tooth man who helped Su Shen buy a house before, asked the other party to help him pay attention to the affordable Erjin small house, and then took out all the thousands of taels of silver that he had in the house.
In the end, Qi Yu'an bought the house where he and Bai Yunzhen live now for 19,200 taels.
