Chapter 69: The Secret War Between Husband and Wife
Yuan Hongjie was slightly stunned, "Who?" ”
It has only been more than a month since Ziyi was retired back to the Hou Mansion, and he knew that his wife had always been concerned about his younger siblings, but he didn't expect that she had already found a suitable family for Ziyi.
Wei Ziqing hesitated for a moment and said: "I see that Cousin Shao'an has some thoughts about Ziyi, this time he went to Yinzhou, and even bought us a cloud brocade worth thousands of gold, which is among relatives, this gift is too heavy!" What's more, I look at those cloud brocades, most of them are suitable for young women, and they are the most popular styles nowadays, who is Shao'an's cousin's intention is mainly for, it is obvious. ”
Yuan Hongjie didn't expect this at all, he was a man, and it was inevitable that he would be rough-hearted, at this time, listening to Wei Ziqing's words, he thought carefully about the Yunjin sent by Lin Shaoan, and also felt some signs, and couldn't help but be surprised: "This is really ...... Is...... I said that Ziyi is a good girl, but she was unlucky to bear such a reputation! If she hadn't married the Rongyang Eldest Princess Mansion at the beginning, she was afraid that the people who asked for marriage would have to break through the threshold of Nanping Houfu. ”
Wei Ziqing couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, but it's not a bad thing to go through this catastrophe, at least Ziyi has grown up, and no matter where she marries in the future, I don't have to worry too much." I see, the Lin family is more suitable for Ziyi, my uncle and aunt must be hurting Ziyi, and Shao'an is also a good child, with a good temperament, and he treats people and things kindly, and he has no temper at first glance!
When I chatted with him last time, he said that he had been busy with business with his eldest and second uncle before, and he had never had time to marry a wife, and now he has just turned twenty, and the age difference between him and Ziyi is not big. ”
When she said the last sentence, she also deliberately glanced at him, looking playful as if she was going to argue with him, Yuan Hongjie was a little emotional in his heart, he held Wei Ziqing's hand tightly, leaned over and sniffed the fragrance on her body, and said with a low smile: "Madame looks down on Yang Shiyi Lang so much, but she actually secretly looks down on her husband at the beginning?" In any case, I think this matter still depends on Ziyi's attitude, Ziyi now has a lot of ideas and is easily not swayed by others. ”
Wei Ziqing was a little itchy by the heat he squirted, chuckled and dodged, seeing him reluctantly following, he couldn't help blushing, thinking that Yuan Hongjie was really drunk, looking at a serious man, it was rare to have such a clingy time, so he pushed him and said, "The child is here." ”
Yuan Hongjie sighed lightly, yes, the child is here, there are still two, and one still occupies his wife's belly.
Wei Ziqing naturally knew what his husband wanted to do, although he had been married for many years, he was a little reserved and couldn't let go, and said with a red face: "Well, the most important thing is Ziyi's attitude, I'll find a time to explore her thoughts."
By the way, I inquired about the academy last time. ”
Wei Ziqing is already very experienced, and it is best to divert Yuan Hongjie's attention at this time.
Yuan Hongjie saw Wei Ziqing's frowning eyebrows again, and comforted: "Xuan'er is still young, it's nothing if you can't pass the exam this time, you see that I haven't also taken the exam for more than ten years, and I haven't started the exam yet, maybe Xuan'er will perform exceptionally in the examination room?" ”
Wei Ziqing saw that her husband was afraid that she would worry about her appearance, and her heart was warm, and she smiled: "I know, I was just too idle at home, so I went to ask." She already lost hope in the Guo woman, if Xuan'er really couldn't pass the exam this time, she planned to let him go to the academy to study, and she couldn't let him go on like this anymore, just ......
Wei Ziqing sighed, "I'm only worried about the silver, and the expenses for Xuan'er to go to the academy to study won't be less, my eldest sister is useless, and I can only be anxious at this time." ”
These days, the money she uses to cook soup for her younger siblings comes from her dowry, although Yuan Hongjie said that she can use his Yulu, but Wei Ziqing can't bear it, he works so hard every day to feed the whole family, she can no longer put the pressure on his younger siblings on him, not to mention, his Yulu is actually not much.
Although her dowry is not much, it is still okay to buy some ingredients to cook a soup for her brother.
It's just that I have to afford the cost of Xuan'er going to the academy, but it's far from enough.
With this money, she didn't expect Guo and her father to come out, Ziyi is not married yet, and it is impossible to have so much money, so she has to worry about it.
There were more than 100 academies in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the most prestigious was naturally the Guozijian located at the foot of the Son of Heaven. But Guozijian, the first school, she can't even think of it, that place is that you can't get in if you have money, only those who have a certain reputation among the people, or who are recommended by Confucianism, are eligible to take its entrance exam.
And the other famous academies are not in Xiangyang City, if Wei Chengxuan really wants to enter the academy, he will definitely leave Xiangyang City.
At that time, the travel expenses, the accommodation expenses during the exam, the restraints, and perhaps the personal expenses will all be a lot of expenses, Wei Ziqing just thought about it, and there was a sense of anxiety in his heart.
Yuan Hongjie is also helpless, his ability is too small, it is the limit to be able to support this family, at this time, looking at his wife's troubles, he is also distressed and annoyed, he thinks of Yang Lei, his heart moves slightly, if Ziyi marries into the Yang family, maybe Xuan'er will have the opportunity to enter the Guozijian......
But Ziqing definitely didn't want to listen to these words, although he was mixed in the officialdom, it was inevitable that his thinking was affected by the collusion of interests in the officialdom, but he would never say these nonsense things in front of his wife and children, and he just said at this time: "Don't worry about this in advance, wait for Xuan'er to finish the Qiuyu exam with peace of mind, you just had a fetal gas before, so don't think nonsense." ”
Wei Ziqing also knew that this was the reason, nodded helplessly, changed the topic, and talked to Yuan Hongjie about something else.
……
At this time, Mo Xiaodie naturally didn't know that Wei Ziqing and his wife had already found two family affairs for her, and one of them supported the other, and there were faint signs of husband and wife competition, and she was very sincerely worried these days...... Money is a problem!
That night, Xin Yi walked into the room with a very strange face.
Mo Xiaodie sat behind her desk, casually flipping through the "Chronicles of Wu Taizu" sent by Xiao Churui last night.
Wu Taizu is the former dynasty Taizu, it is said that Wu Taizu has a quirk, he does not like the historian to write his deeds into the history books, and even forbids the common people to praise his deeds, so that until now, there are very few records about the former dynasty Taizu, and many are still speculative.
This "Wu Taizu Zhi" was written by a person at the end of the previous dynasty, it is already the most detailed one, it is said that its original manuscript has been lost, there are only a few rubbings left in the world, and it is difficult to find a thousand gold.
But according to the historian's investigation, there are still some conjecture elements in it, and Xiao Churui said that it was for her reference.
He sent the book to her after her first translation, and he didn't know what he had in mind.
Mo Xiaodie had been distrustful of that man since they first met, and she knew that no matter how harmless he was, he was a dormant leopard inside, and he couldn't be provoked.
"Lady, today's group of children has brought a few more ways to make money."
After those children got Mo Xiaodie's instructions, they brought her a bunch of ways to make money every time, but the level was not too late, the content was full of jokes, and even brought the job of being a wet nurse to a certain big family......
Mo Xiaodie couldn't cry or laugh, she just wanted to do this kind of thing, and she didn't have enough energy to do it!
However, after listening to the salary offered by the family, she looked at the sky silently, she was evil, the nurses and children were richer than her, and she crossed into a fake family daughter!
In the end, she had to emphasize that their lady is a serious lady, can she find something serious...... Cough...... A job for a young lady? And it's better to make a lot of money, not those who help weave and embroider to earn a few copper plates at a time.
And those who can make a lot of money are generally not manual work, but skill work or work that requires brains, they can focus on going to those big shops or government departments to see if they have any problems that need to be solved in the near future, and those problems often hide business opportunities!
That is, as the saying goes, the pain point of finding potential customers!
According to Xin Yi, when she repeated her words to the children, they looked confused, and several of them were still in a sluggish state.
Mo Xiaodie couldn't help but be troubled, this task might be too difficult for them, after all, their cognitive level was still far from that level.
Therefore, Mo Xiaodie was not surprised to hear Xin Yi say this, but Xin Yi's indescribable expression aroused her interest, and she couldn't help but sit up straight, and said, "But what strange way did they find to make money?" ”
These days, she listens to the money-making methods they bring as a joke, and she laughs every day, which is quite fun!
