Chapter 183: Monopoly on cotton cloth

Xue'er lazily smiled and said: "It's not that you want to train a civil and military all-rounder, the main thing is that practicing martial arts can strengthen your body, and you can also use it for self-protection." ”

Qian Yunhe was squeezed by Xue'er, her face was a little unsightly, Zi swelled her face, and pretended to chat with Zhang Hongmei beside her, not looking at Xue'er's side.

Xue'er didn't want to have any more conflicts with Qian Yunhe, so she didn't hold on to it anymore.

After the second brother Dong Chengqing's full moon banquet, Yun Jiazhu's family left the Dong family, took the things that the Dong family had arranged for them, and asked the Yun family for ten taels of silver, saying that the Yun family gave them less wages for the couple.

The Yun family was very angry, and in the end, Dong Changhe secretly gave them ten taels of silver and sent the couple back.

Xue'er once privately asked Dong Changhe why he took in his aunt's family in the first place, knowing that there would be no good results.

Dong Changhe shook his head with a smile, and said seriously: "Your mother was cold to her sisters because of the matter of borrowing silver, and they haven't borrowed any of the light in our family in the past few years. And your uncle and aunt have helped your father a lot.

After a long time, your mother's heart is unbalanced.

But as our family gets better and better, your mother's heart has long softened and wants to help them.

If your father didn't agree to help your aunt, your mother would inevitably give her money secretly, and the cycle would start over and over again, this is a bottomless pit.

Of course, it's okay to support your aunt's family under our family's current conditions, but that's not to help them, it's to harm them.

After this incident, your mother once again saw her sisters clearly, and there will be rules for doing things in the future. ”

Xue'er realized that Dong Changhe was still the calculating Dong Changhe, and he had not changed from beginning to end.

This year has passed without waves, and after the New Year, Xue'er, who is already eleven years old, has become more and more slim.

Sitting, lying and walking are all pictures of moving ladies, and Dong Changhe and his wife can't wait for their daughter to stay in the house for twelve hours and not go out.

Dong Chengqing, who is already two years old, can already speak, and he has long been able to walk steadily.

Dong Chengqing's appearance is not as good-looking as his brother Dong Chengze, and his appearance integrates the genes of the Dong family and the Yun family.

Fortunately, his eyes are like Dong Changhe, only his mouth and nose are like Yun's, and his overall appearance is not bad compared to other children.

However, Dong Chengqing is not as good as Ze'er, he is very naughty and mischievous, and the often angry Yun jumps to his feet.

When he was born, he was a noisy child, and as long as he was unhappy, he would tear open his throat and howl, and the sound could reach Erlidi.

It often wakes up all the sleeping people in the middle of the night.

Later, Xue'er and Dong Chengze moved to live in Yongze Courtyard, so that the two sisters and brothers could sleep well.

Zhao also gave birth to a son to Dong Changhu last year, the same age as Dong Chengqing, named Dong Chengkui, and when they got together in Sanjiagou again, everyone watched these two small performances.

In the past two years, Cher has successively taken out peppers, tomatoes, apples and other seeds from the space ring.

Anyway, everyone was deceived by her, and even Mo Shijiu, who had been following her, didn't find anything wrong.

In this year's lunar month, the Dong family was once again enthroned by the emperor.

Unlike last time, maize is a high-yielding food crop, a food crop that can be grown in large areas in the north, and its prospects are mediocre.

Cotton is even more practical, not only as a winter heater, but also as a woven cloth.

This kind of fabric, which is halfway between silk and linen, is not only practical, but also very strong and wear-resistant.

Youwang asked Lord Cao to build an official workshop in Changhai County, which was specially used to produce cotton cloth.

The official's workshop was handed over to Dong Changhe to be in charge, and the Dong family was given 20% of the profits.

Xue'er won the monopoly right of cotton cloth in Tiezhou for Dong Changhu in Youwang through Mo Shijiu. For this reason, Zhao's Buzhuang now has half of Dong Changhu's "shares", allowing him to gain a foothold in the Zhao family.

Chili peppers and tomatoes are also popular with the ruling class, and dogwood has been replaced by chili peppers in many people's kitchens.

With these merits, Dong Changhe directly skipped the titles of county son and county earl, and directly became a county marquis, a thousand households, and could be hereditary forever, and did not demote the lord.

The Yun family was enshrined as Mrs. Hou from the third grade.

Xue'er was enshrined as the county lord of Congyipin, and the treatment was the same as that of the princess, and she was fed and fed, and there was no fief and food.

At the same time, Dong Xue'er and the Dong family were rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, two houses each, and a number of other things.

She knew that she had been given such a heavy seal because the crop was secondary, and the key was that the plaster cast method of fixing the broken bones had played a role in the army.

It was Gonggong Xu who came to announce the decree last time, and this time Gonggong Xu and his entourage stayed in the current county mansion for a day.

During this day, Grandpa Xu asked Xue'er a lot of questions.

Before leaving, he read out the dictation of Jinshang, and the last time he was enclosed, he did not let the Dong family enter Beijing to thank him, but this time he said that he understood that the county marquis was not in good health and it was not easy to travel far, and the county marquis was just a woman in the house, so there was no need to enter Beijing to thank him, as long as Xue'er would enter Beijing with His Royal Highness King Youwang next year.

Xue'er naturally had to accept the order, and sent Xu's father-in-law away, Xue'er was really worried.

She had no resistance to traveling far away, although it was not an easy thing in ancient times. The most important thing is to face the saint, which makes her very nervous.

It is said that she Dong Xue'er is a little woman, and there is no reason to let her enter Beijing to thank her, but she has such a will.

Dong Changhe accepted this matter easily, and he was very excited about his daughter's upcoming appearance.

If his body can, he also wants to go to Chang'an, which is the national capital, and there is a fair and honest reason to face the saint, what kind of glory is this?

In the end, Xue'er saw Dong Changhe's envy and proposed: "Dad, Ze'er will be six years old next year." When Xue'er wanted to face the saint, she took Ze'er with her.

It is said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books, although Ze'er can inherit her father's title, she can have no worries for a lifetime. But I don't want him to just be a city guard, and I hope that Ze'er can win the Toad Palace in the future and become the pride of his father.

As a man, you must have the courage to face the storms of life and bless your family in the future.

As for the safety of the journey, since there is Youwang with him, my father and mother don't have to worry.

And Youwang is followed by the imperial doctor, and there is a headache and brain fever on the road, but it can also protect my sister and brother. ”

Dong Changhe was moved by her proposal, but he couldn't pay attention to it all of a sudden, and only said: "This matter has to be thought about by my father."

And you are a little lady when you go out, even if your Royal Highness takes care of it, there are no relatives around you, and you really have no bottom in your heart for your father. I'd like to talk to your grandfather about whether I can get your fourth uncle to accompany you. ”
