Harue's head buzzed.
"That's true!" She whispered.
Originally, when she heard Mrs. Wei say that, she thought she was being polite to her! As a result, I didn't expect Chai Dong to say the same. So it seems, is that really the case? β
Just because she climbed the mountain of the Queen Mother, her popularity has risen gradually, and it has only been half a month, and it has come to this point!
Sure enough, it's a good shade with your back against a big tree!
Chai Dong nodded, his tone still sour. "And that's just the beginning. Listening to their tone, the Queen Mother is planning to support you to the end, so many people will invite you to come to the door as a guest in the future. Prepare yourself! β
"Okay, I got it." Chunzhi nodded hurriedly, and suddenly smiled even more happily, "In this case, it seems that I can take the opportunity to familiarize myself with those people first, so that I can have a good idea of which one is worthy of deep friendship and which one is not, let's discuss it together." β
"Hmm." Chai Dong nodded, still a little dying.
Harue was amused by his appearance.
"What are you doing here? I haven't been like this when you were better than me before! Why is it that now that I have just nodded my head, you are like this? You don't think I'm good, do you? β
"It's not, it's just ...... I always thought that after I got the flowers, it would be my turn to carry this family, and you and your mother could rest. Who knows, in the end, I haven't made any results, but I've let you get a head start. I'm feeling bad right now. Chai Dong slowly said what was in his heart.
Haruka understood, and she burst out laughing again.
"So, are you jealous, frustrated, and uncomfortable, unwilling to accept this fact?"
Chai Dong nodded. "Almost."
Haruka covered her lips and laughed.
"So what do you think you should do now? Otherwise, I'll push everything outside and go home to guard you and the child? β
"Forget it!" Chai Dong immediately shook his head, "I only said that I felt uncomfortable, and I didn't say that you couldn't do it." β
After speaking, he muttered in a low voice: "Anyway, it's not like I haven't eaten soft rice before, but now I just continue to eat for a while." β
Haruka laughed directly.
As it turned out, Chai Dong was really not wrong at all.
The day after they came back from the Wei family, more people who were similar to the Wei family began to hand them invitations, and some even gave Spring Branches posts alone! After all, Chai Dong is busy and can only take one day off every ten days, but Chunzhi does not have this limitation.
Although he had been prepared in his heart, but now that the momentum was getting more and more serious, Chai Dong's face was still a lot more solemn. Even the Wang family quietly trained Chunzhi several times: "You are a woman, don't think about surpassing your man all day long, okay?" As a woman, you should save enough face for men, you know? β
"Mother, I want to save face for my father-in-law, but I don't want things to develop like this now!" Chunzhi was helpless, "Besides, our family still owes more than 1,000 taels of silver in foreign debts, and Xianggong doesn't have much money a month, and the family has such a big expense, and the boy and the girl also have to ask Mr. to read and write, I don't want to make money, do we all drink the northwest wind as a family?" β
When she came to the capital, she found out that she had been deceived by the drama.
What poor scholar is the champion, and then he is called by the emperor as a concubine, or he marries a beautiful lady and then returns to his hometown, and then he is an official and has lived a vigorous life since then. But now Chai Dong has been in the Tanhua, that is, he was arranged to go to the Yushitai to do chores, Wang Zongping is doing chores in the Hanlin Academy, and he is also the champion from a big family in the capital, but he is only a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, a minor official of the seventh grade, and he has to stay up for one or two decades to see if he can be the prime minister with the help of the family relationship!
Anyway, after coming to the capital, they seem to have returned to the original Chaidong entrance examination, and everything started from scratch.
If it weren't for Chunzhi's ability to get a little benefit now, they would just be afraid that they would still be living a miserable life now!
Wang was so gagged by her words that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. In the end, she could only mumble unhappily: "That's just now!" In the future, my son will definitely get better and better, so that he will not be raised by you for a lifetime! β
"Yes, yes, that's for sure. But now, I can only raise this family! Haruka sighed helplessly.
Only then did Wang shut up.
Just the day after they moved over, the Queen Mother's mother's family, the Yuan family, had already sent her husband over. This gentleman is fifty years old, and his life is ordinary, but his bookish spirit adds a lot to him. Chai Dong chatted with him behind closed doors, and then nodded to Chunzhi when he turned around: "This gentleman has a solid foundation, and he teaches Li Boy and Pan Ya very well." β
So, this Mr. Zhang settled in their house.
Although Mr.'s bundle of the Queen Mother has been wrapped, Mr.'s food, clothing, and housing can't be faked to others, and there are three festivals and two birthdays, and they must also express it. Add to that the cost of two children's education, and that's not a small amount.
But fortunately, Chunzhi went to the Wei family that day, and at that time she also promised to make a few small ornaments for the wives of the Wei family. After the things were finished and sent over, the Wei family sent someone to send the hardship fee, which was a fluttering small box. But when he opened it, Chunzhi found that there were several silver tickets inside, each of which was a denomination of one hundred taels!
She made a total of four ornaments, and the Wei family gave four hundred taels of silver.
Without Chu Xu's shop in the middle, all this money is theirs!
At first glance, when he saw so much money, Chunzhi couldn't help but gasp.
"It seems that the price has risen again!" Holding these silver tickets, she sighed beautifully in her heart.
Since the Wei family has started this way, then other families naturally can't lag behind. Even some eager people didn't wait for Chunzhi to make the things first, they had already given a deposit. In addition, Chunzhi occasionally gives them a look at their cats and dogs, and the hard work is more expensive than embroidery.
Within a few days, Chunzhi had more than a thousand taels of silver on hand.
"Before, I thought it was more than a thousand taels! But now, I think I'm wrong. After counting and finding that the money was still one or two hundred taels short of enough to be returned to King Qin, Chunzhi couldn't help but sigh to Chai Dong, "It's different here in the capital, there are so many rich people!" β
It's a pity that she has earned so much in one go, and the money doesn't belong to her. They were temporarily hot in her hands, and then they were going to be transferred to someone else's hands.
However, Harueda was still very happy to think that he had made so much money in a short period of time.
It's just that Chai Dong frowned, he seemed to have something on his mind.
Haruka blinked, and she slowly reached out to rub his eyebrows away.
"Are you thinking about the situation on the Fan family's side?" She asked softly.
Chai Dong bowed his head. "I have also investigated the Fan family before, but seeing that they are not up or down in the capital, and there don't seem to be many promising children in the family, I didn't think much about it. But now that I heard my mother talk about the relationship between their family and my father, I looked back at them again, and realized that I still seemed to be thinking things too simply. After the fall of King Yong, this family was able to survive and live so well in the capital, which has their own advantages. β
"And what is so good about them?" Harueda asked busily.
"Thick-skinned." Chai Dong replied.
Burst!
Haruzhi almost broke the effort.
"Is that something extraordinary?"
"Of course." Chai Dong bowed his head, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a shallow smile, "If you don't believe it, you will know when the time comes." β
In two days, when it is Chai Dong's turn to rest, it will be the day when the couple will go to Fan's house as guests together.
The Fan family attached great importance to their arrival, and all the elders of the family came to greet them, and after welcoming them to the backyard, the men and women of the family surrounded Chunzhi and Chai Dong respectively. The man began to reminisce with Chai Dong about the bits and pieces when he worked with Chai Dong and his father, which really attracted a lot of Chai Dong's favor.
Women, of course, they just talked to Chunzhi about Chai Dong's mother. The previous news about Chai Dong's mother-in-law, they all got it from the Wang family, and in addition to desperate praise, it was praise, as if Chai Dong's mother was a fairy who didn't eat fireworks in the world, which always sounded like it didn't feel very true. But now that the words come out of the mouth of the Fan family, the sense of reality is much stronger. Chunzhi listened to it in her ears, and she also desperately remembered it in her heart, planning to repeat it to Chai Dong after returning home.
However, as she spoke, she sensed that something was wrongβ
"I think about how literary and elegant Lord Chai was at the beginning, and it seems to be even better than the current Chai Tanhua. Mrs. Chai is also gentle and kind, and she is also a rare good woman in the world. Their husband and wife are both models of loving couples in the eyes of the people in the capital, and many women are attracted by Lord Chai's demeanor and take the initiative to hug him, but he refuses to give words. My daughter was fascinated by him at the time. However, it is impossible to know them, so I discussed with Lord Chai, it is better for our two families to have a family of children and daughters! It just so happened that his eldest son was not too young, and Lord Chai readily agreed. But it's a pity that that incident happened just after the decision was made...... Ay! The little girl was overly sad because of this incident, but she always regarded herself as the daughter-in-law of Chaimen, and she has not yet married! β
"So what? What do you mean by that? Listening to what they said in a ziandering way, Haruka was too lazy to play with those twists and turns, and asked directly.
Mrs. Fan smiled.
"Actually, we don't mean anything else. Now that your Chai family has returned, the fate of the little girl has also been settled. We hope that Chai Tanhua can marry the little girl in the name of her brother, and she will be a member of the Chai family in the future. In this way, you can also have more people around you to help in the future, isn't it a double win? β
Seeing that she was smiling so happily, it was as if she had found a good home for her daughter, but Haruka began to sneer in her heart.
