Chapter 255: Merit
Chapter 255: Merit
In the evening, it was a bit cloudy, and a few raindrops fell. //..
Bao Sheng was startled, and hurriedly commanded the girls in the palace to clean up the books, fortunately, it was a false alarm, and the books were neatly piled into Gu Wan's study, until there was no heavy rain to pour the books, Bao Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, if there was a mistake in this precious book in the garden, she was afraid that she would be so angry that she would die on the stone lion at the gate. Gu Wan was calm, anyway, she had a backup of these books, even if they were really drenched with water, it was not a big deal, she slowly packed up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and shook it back to the house to rest.
The fish eaten for dinner, as a result, Gu Wan was a little sick to her stomach, and she estimated that it was almost over, so she asked Baosheng to call the imperial doctor.
Mu Yanzhao came back with the imperial doctor, and when he came back, he looked panicked, but when he sent the imperial doctor away, his whole person was glowing, his spirit was vibrant, and Le Taotao's feet shook, as if he was about to fly.
Brother Liu'er sat on his father's head, not understanding what was going on, he would only laugh with the others, revealing two snow-white teeth, Gu Wan shook his head, like a fragile product was rested on the soft couch, raised his hand to hook Mu Qi's arm, made him bend down and bow his head, and reached out and pinched his son's delicate cheek.
Brother Liu'er didn't cry, smiled and opened his hand to his mother: "Mother, hug ......"
Mu Yanzhao took the child down and hugged him in his arms: "Your mother has a baby in her belly, so I can't hold you." The voice dragged on for a long time, and it was still turning a corner, which was weird, and it made Gu Wan straightforward. //..
Mu Qi didn't go to the palace anymore, and the two of them nested on the couch and teased their son while talking. In fact, since the news of Gu Wan's pregnancy again came to the court, Mu Yanxu, as the emperor, jumped three feet high, and a series of rewards accompanied by the two imperial doctors who had just returned rushed back to the palace, as for Mu Qi, Mu Yanxu waved his hand and honestly rested at home for a few days to accompany his daughter-in-law.
The difficulties of the heirs of the Mu family's generation are well known, and the brothers have not been born as a sister-in-law for so many years, since Gu Wan gave birth to Brother Liu'er, the brothers of the Mu family are happy, and they all feel that Mu Qi can have such a son-in-law, which is already a great luck, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to have a second child, but I didn't expect that as soon as Brother Liu'er was so little, Gu Wan became pregnant again.
Mu Yanxu took Queen Liu's hand, and finally said, "The brother and daughter-in-law you chose are good, it must be the life of Wangfu Wangzi!" ”
The Liu family couldn't cry or laugh - this person probably forgot that Gu Wan was the one Xiao Qi himself had to marry, and a group of people from their Mu family, although they didn't oppose it at first, they really couldn't say that they were in favor, and many felt that Gu Wan's status was too low to be worthy of Mu Qi!
In any case, Gu Wan has once again become a cherished giant panda, no, the giant panda is not cherished by her this year, it is estimated that at this time, Gu Wan said that she wanted to eat panda meat, and Mu Qi would also quickly send a royal forest army to hunt.
Early in the morning, Gu Wan lazily got out of the quilt that was dried and full of sunshine, and strolled to the study, where she saw Mu Qi reading the folds in the study.
Gu Wan pushed the door in, Mu Qi raised her head and smiled, directly reached out to grab her daughter-in-law's slender waist, and carefully held him in her arms.
"How's the river work going?"
Gu Wan raised her hand, made a Baosheng glutinous rice dumpling with a layer of rock sugar as a snack for her, stuffed it into Mu Qi's mouth and asked with a smile.
'The harem can't interfere in politics, and it is definitely not a matter of doing anything in the Mu family, and the women of the Mu family can almost be the masters of half of the family, and the men are willing to come back and discuss with their wives when they have something to do outside.
That's about the benefit of being like-minded, never having to worry about having nothing to say.
Mu Qi swallowed the dumplings and blinked: "Uncle Eleventh has already released the news and gathered all the families, but except for the Qidonghou Mansion, everyone else has some intention of shirking, the silver is donated, but it is a drop in the bucket, it is really not enough, I wonder about the day when I personally invite this group of people to the capital to gather and discuss this matter." ”
Mu Qi is still very confident in himself, he really dealt with all kinds of people when he raised military funds for the Mu family, and no matter how cunning the old fox of the merchant family is, he also has the confidence to fool them and scrape a layer of oil and water from these people.
Gu Wan pursed her lips: "I'll give you an idea, you don't need to look for it for safekeeping, someone will take the initiative to hold a lot of silver and stuff it into your hand." ”
"Oh? We can't do the matter of making a wish for an official, the court is chaotic enough, it's just an idle job, and it's never a good thing to let this group of people get involved. Mu Qi smiled, "The cost is too high, it's not worth it." ”
Gu Wan was speechless, and poked her finger over: "What are you thinking about in your head...... I mean, let the Long Live Lord personally come forward, set up a monument on the river every day, it is said to be a merit monument, everyone who has made a lot of effort, the name is engraved on it, forever passed on to future generations, and then let Long Live personally supervise, make some 'commemorative medals,, let Long Live Lord write a few words, gold, silver, bronze, you can make some, the most money, issue a gold medal, and so on, the family is just that, may not necessarily look at this false name, however, those businessmen must attach great importance to it, and no one will not want it! ”
Mu Qi smiled dumbly: "My lady's empty gloves and white wolf methods are much higher than your family's Langjun." ”
He has completely figured it out, the imperial court attaches great importance to commerce, those merchants are very rich, and there is no shortage of gold and silver, they value prestige more than money, and with such an opportunity, they naturally know what to do!
contributed to the river work, not only gained a good reputation, but also took the opportunity to curry favor with Mu Yanzhao, killing two birds with one stone, no one is a fool, how can he not be willing?
Since newspapers and magazines began to diversify and develop, the news spread not generally fast, and the news quickly spread all over the world, and it didn't take long for many people to come to the door with silver, merchants all over the country, Mu Yanzhao couldn't do it if he wanted to, and there were many people who gave gifts to their own families, and even the family members were more active than before.
Gu Wan made a special suggestion, use these gold and silver, set up a 'fund, which will be taken care of by a special person, who will be responsible for the annual river construction costs, and every expenditure must be publicized, so as to be transparent and open, and anyone who has a heart can check the flow of this fund at any time, in fact, this is the same model as the disabled veterans' relief fund run by Gu Wan herself.
She even pondered that she could organize people to hold some charity sales and other activities to do some charity, and people in this era still have a sense of social responsibility, and they should be able to carry it out smoothly.
