Wen Jin laughed: "Yes, but I don't keep it for watching, I dug a big pond by the stream, raised lotus flowers in it, and stocked fish, not only can I produce lotus seeds, but also eat fish......"

The county lord of Yujie was stunned for a moment, and then pursed his lips and chuckled: "Oh, hehe-hee-" Immediately, he asked more curiously, "How big is the pond?" How many fish do you raise?

"I first opened ten acres of fish ponds, raising hundreds of fish, seeing that it was profitable, I opened another twenty acres of fish ponds, not only raising fish, but also raising ducks, those years were not easy, these incomes, can make the family worry about food and clothing, my brother does not have to worry about studying without constraints and expenses."

Lord Yujie listened attentively and said admiringly: "Ouch, haven't you become a great hero of our family?" ”

"I can't say it's my credit, it's my second aunt, Brother Wen Han and I did it together, digging the pond is very hard, I hire people, the people in the mountain village can be diligent and kind."

"That means you're doing well in the mountains?" The county lord of Yujie was sour in her heart, and she was so envious that she was almost jealous, she was still a noble girl, with fine clothes and food, but she didn't laugh, she was really not as good as a peasant girl in the mountains.

Wen Jin was afraid of arousing the disgust of the county lord, so he covered it up: "Hehe, it's just very tired, I just started raising ducks, I used an old hen to hatch eggs, there is an old hen is a novice, always exposing the eggs, I have to get up several times a night, oh, I think of that time, I was so sleepy every day, my biggest wish is to be able to sleep well, sleep every day until I wake up naturally, heh——"

Speaking of sleeping, Wen Jin really yawned, and couldn't help but stretch a little.

"Come on, let's lie down and talk." The county lord of Yujie pulled Wen Jin.

Wen Jin hurriedly stopped: "No, no, I'm really not tired, ouch, now I have nothing to do every day, I feel that I can't stand it, this bone is too lazy." ”

"Isn't that good? Don't you want to wake up naturally every day? ”

"The county lord's mother, I can wake up naturally every day, the days at home, once on the right track, it is getting more and more prosperous day by day, what to do, what to do, it is not so embarrassing in the past, alas, the only thing I can't let go of now is that the kiwifruit in the garden in the countryside should be ripe, those people, can they do the arranged things well, and I still have a restaurant in Minghu City, and the jewelry store that Zhou Danniang takes care of, to what extent has it developed......"

The lord of Yujie is spiritual, and there is no woman who does not gossip. I saw her wide-eyed and ask Wen Jin: "You, I heard the master say, you disguised yourself as a man, took care of the housework, and earned a lot of money, is it true?" ”

"Yes, I still want to open a hotel in the capital, but unfortunately I don't even know what the capital is like every day in this deep mansion compound, alas-"

Although the county lord of Yujie is only a few years older than Wen Jin, her identity is an elder, besides, psychologically, she is also much older than Wen Jin, and when she heard this, she reached out and took Wen Jin's hand in distress: "Don't worry, you don't have to go out to see it now, send a slave to help you, isn't it?" She thought of the people who couldn't fit in her house.

"Jin'er, those people in Zhuangzi, I'll transfer them all over and put them under your control, and let them help you open a store in the capital and do business, okay?"

Don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, the lord of Yujie is actually worried about the economic situation of the Qian family, Qian Xiancong's Yulu is too little, the Zhuangzi given by the emperor is too small, and her dowry is also very limited.

Wen Jin blinked, making sure that the little stepmother was telling the truth, so she nodded solemnly: "Okay, but I don't take a look with my own eyes, I'm always not at ease, county lord Niangniang, I quietly dressed up as a man and went out, you have to help cover it up, who said, you don't admit it, okay?" ”

The county lord of Yujie not only envied Wen Jin's courage and bravery, but also feared that she would cause gossip and ruin her reputation, and she was sorry for her husband, so she hesitated and didn't dare to nod.

"Otherwise, my mother will accompany me? Let's bring the family members of the nursing home and pretend to be those noble sons who go out to play, who doesn't have long eyes to provoke us, it will be fine. ”

Lord Yujie has been suppressed so much over the years, and she is very yearning for Wen Jin's proposal, but she still shook her head: "No, something happened, how can I be worthy of your father!" ”

Wen Jin thought for a while: "My brother studies hard every day, he should go out for a walk, let him take me with him, right?" ”

"How could your brother agree?" Lord Yujie felt that Wen Han was very stable, and he would not do such a thing as Meng Lang.

"Then, county lord's mother, if my brother agrees, will you let me out?"

The county lord of Yujie was surrounded by Wen Jin, and couldn't help but nod and agree: "Okay!" ”

Wen Jin's heart immediately fluttered happily like a bird flying out of a cage.

Wei felt that Wen Jin was messing around, a serious Wen Han, but agreed to Wen Jin's request. Wen Jin transferred five people from Zhuangzi and asked them to help her find land in the streets and alleys of the capital to see if there were any houses suitable for opening restaurants for rent or sale.

Fearing that they would be sent to the farm again to farm, these minions were very active, and in ten days, they found nine places for Wen Jin.

In the past few days, Wen Jin is weighing the information repeatedly, four places have been eliminated, and there are still five, but he can't settle down for a while, this day, he was contemplating again, and the county lord of Yujie walked in.

"County Lord's Mother!" Wen Jin hurriedly saluted, and was stopped by the county lord of Yujie, "Our family, what are you doing with these false tricks, what makes you so worried?" ”

"Niangniang, Jin'er is not worried, but thinking, these five places have their own advantages and disadvantages, it seems that you have to take a look."

"You, do you have to go out?"

"Niangniang, although my subordinate Sun Yanping is smart and clever, but after all, he is a little young, his experience is not enough, and he especially doesn't know much about the capital, so he can only give me some reference opinions for the time being, and he can't make decisions for me on his own."

"Oh? This Sun Yanping said, which place is good? ”

"This plot is the best, but it's a pity that the rent for a year is 60,000 taels of silver, and he didn't even dare to say anything when he heard it, if it weren't for the information you gave Wang Xiaoai to me, I didn't know there was such a place."

"This bold minion didn't even know about it, and he was too bold, Wen Jin, if he wasn't punished, he would be more and more outrageous in the future." The county lord of Yujie hurriedly taught Wen Jin the way to control people.

Wen Jin was amused, and finally stopped frowning, she said to the lord of Yujie seriously: "Okay, my mother, it's not that the slave is bold, but the timid is too small, you didn't hear clearly, this rent costs 60,000 taels of silver a year, and Sun Yanping's slave is afraid that the master will lose money." ”

"What? Isn't it a house made of gold, and you dare to ask for sixty thousand taels of silver? Only then did Lord Yujie widen his eyes.

"Niangniang, this place is indeed too good, it is just south of the big front gate outside the palace, where those officials have to pass through the upper and lower courts, this house is also well built, two floors up and down, spacious and bright, it is said that the windows are equipped with glass, the same as in the palace."

"What?"

"Niangniang, the officials are on the way to the court, there are many uncertain factors, they are afraid of being late, they have to arrive early, the winter is cold and windy, I heard that they have to sit in this restaurant for a while, drink tea and eat snacks."

"Oh, so the business here is good, why sublet?"

"I heard that the old man died, and several sons wanted to take this hotel for themselves for the sake of the family property, and the final compromise result was to rent it out and then divide the money." Wen Jin told the news he had heard.

"A bunch of losers."

"Isn't it? In fact, sometimes, it may not be more than a blessing. ”

"If the children are not filial, one is too much." The county lord of Yujie remembered all kinds of open and secret battles in her ex-husband's family, and often made her father-in-law so angry that she fell ill, and said with deep feelings.

Wen Jin saw that the topic was far away, so he changed his words: "This house, at the beginning, it was said that it would rent 40,000 taels of silver, but it attracted competition from seven or eight companies, and it was raised to 60,000 yuan. ”

"If you deserve it, you can't rent it." The county lord of Yujie and Wen Jin feel very relaxed, often talking like a little woman in her twenties, coquettish and angry is frequent, she slowly changes day by day, she doesn't feel it, but she smiles more and more, and people are getting younger and younger.

No wonder the Empress Dowager gave her the name "Yujie", the face of the lord of Yujie is very fair, although not ruddy enough, but it really has a jade-like texture, very smooth and delicate, more and more like a person in his twenties.

"Miss, you won't take a fancy to this house, will you?" Lord Yujie suddenly thought of this stubble.

"No, those minions have taken a fancy to a set that is three or four miles away from here, and they are going to call it Taibaiju."

"Three or four miles? Isn't that far from our house? ”

"Yes, Niangniang, near Tobe. Hehe, there are a lot of rich people there, the political envoys in various provinces pay taxes, and the officials of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry receive money from there, which one is not allowed to find people to do activities? ”

"But, I've heard that there are several big restaurants there." Lord Yujie was a little worried.

"It's okay Niangniang, since there are several, there are not many of us."

"Miss, it's still inappropriate, those restaurants are supported by people behind them, your father, your father is not so powerful."

Wen Jin didn't expect the county lord of Yujie to say such insightful words, not only cocked his thumb: "Niang Niang, this place, I just want to think about it, wait a few years, in fact, what I like is this place, Nuo, in Dongcheng, where there are many merchant houses, merchants from all over the world, live there, although there are many restaurants, there are many customers, it is easier to open." ”

"You just want to go over there and have a look?"

"Yes."

Wen Jin walked around for a long time, hoping that the county lord of Yujie would agree in a daze, but she frowned and thought about it, and then began to shake her head: "There are dragons and snakes over there, it's too unsafe for you to go." ”

"It's okay mother, I'll bring a few more nurses."

"No, if you dare to mix there, you have a little bit of kung fu, if you meet someone who doesn't want to die, how can you get it, let Wen Han help you take a look."

"Niangniang-" Wen Jin was coquettish, and the county lord of Yujie never followed.

Wen Jin had no choice but to think of another way, and after two days, he heard that Qian Xiancong was going to rest, so he came to the spirit and begged him to take him. Qian Xiancong knew that Wen Jin was for the good of this family, so he agreed as soon as his heart softened, and Wen Han would also go with him at that time, and he would bring bodyguards, and the county lord of Yujie finally agreed.

Qian Jun finally finished his errand, hurried all the way back to the capital, hurriedly went to the palace to hand in the holy decree, and ran home like a wind.

Wen Jin had already returned Zheng Xin to him, the iron-footed servant, and when he saw the master, he said angrily: "The prince didn't propose to the Qian family at all, and a few days ago, the princess also invited the county lord Yujie and Miss Qian to eat crabs. ”

Qian Jun was stunned, what does Liu Caiqin mean by this?

"Lord Shizi, the princess also invited the eldest girl of the Xiao Guo Mansion, the eldest granddaughter of the Zheng Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites, the second girl of the Wuwei Hou Mansion, and the youngest granddaughter of the Shoufu Yang Mansion......"

These girls are all people who are interested in themselves, put Wen Jin and them together, and Liu Caiqin immediately revealed her Sima Zhao's heart.

But Liu Caiqin's move, Qian Jun couldn't say anything wrong, after all, she could use the excuse of a blind date for Qian Jun. The servant brought hot water, and Zheng Xin served Qian Jun to take a bath.

Qian Jun let Zheng Xin massage and rub him, while he thought quickly.

It depends on the situation, her father is unwilling to marry Wen Jin by herself, it is very likely that Liu Caiqin doesn't know yet, she just thinks of Wen Jin from the perspective of her good relationship with Qian Wenhan, otherwise, she would not have embarrassed Wen Jin so indirectly, but would have been ruthless. His father refused to propose to the Qian family, so Qian Jun had to skip him and let the emperor give him a marriage.

Without further ado, Wen Han went to the emperor the next day.

Emperor Yongchang is in the next dynasty, he is often very tired, he likes to take a nap in the afternoon, these days, he is in a good mood, Qian Jun has done his errands, and Shen Mingxi's side is also going well, ***, he will soon solve it peacefully without a single soldier, how can this not make him happy?

The reason for today's good mood, as well as the Queen Mother's busy work during this period of time, those six girls are indeed very beautiful, especially Qian Wenjin, who is atmospheric but not arrogant, coquettish but not confused, a pair of beautiful eyes, with a gentle sweep, the emperor's heart almost melted.

Emperor Yongchang stretched his waist and sat up from the bed, the little eunuch waited and wiped his face, it was time for him to approve the fold.

"Your Majesty, Prince Ren asks to see you!"

"Xuan!" Emperor Yongchang said without hesitation, this little cousin is his great hero.

"Long live the emperor and long live the emperor!"

"Get up, how many times have you said it, you always don't repent, you also learn from that Taoist sir, come with me to this cliché."

"Hehe" Qian Jun got up, "No, there must be something to ask for when you are courteous." ”

"Oh? What do you ask of me? Emperor Yongchang's face bloomed with a big smile, he didn't want to owe his courtiers favors, although it was their duty to serve themselves, but if there was no reward, the emperor also felt that it was very difficult to deal with.

"Hooray, there's one thing, you have to call the shots for me. If it weren't for Master Qian Xiancong's beloved daughter, you would have to marry me at that time. ”

"Who?" Emperor Yongchang felt a pang in his heart, he was really afraid of something, his queen, as well as the side concubines who were in the palace before, were all married for the sake of profit, none of them were what he really liked, he only saw a woman who made him feel excited a few days ago, and today, there are people fighting for him. But this cousin is loyal to himself and works hard, so it's hard to refuse.

Can't just give it away? Emperor Yongchang couldn't help but feel distressed, and at the same time, a wave of anger poured out - Qian Jun, Qian Jun, you met a beautiful woman, and you didn't want to honor me, unexpectedly, unexpectedly......

Qian Jun looked at the emperor and groaned, and his heart became nervous, could it be that the emperor knew Wen Jin? How cute his Jin'er is, Qian Jun knows it in his heart, there is no man who doesn't like her.

What can I do?

Emperor Yongchang saw Qian Jun's eyes flickering, and he could guess his thoughts, he couldn't explicitly refuse Qian Jun's request, so he had to shirk it with haha: "It's the time of the national funeral, and this matter is not suitable for mentioning the agenda." ”

"Obey the order!" Qian Jun understood everything, was confused for a while, made a big salute, and retreated cowardly.

Fighting for a woman with the emperor, does he have a chance of winning?

As long as Wen Jin is not married, he will fight to the death, the emperor is very remarkable, what he says, a spittle and a nail, can smash him to death, but the emperor also has his own helplessness, as long as he uses it well, he has money, and there is a possibility of turning the tables.

Until the last moment, it's hard to say who will have the last laugh!

Qian Jun wandered aimlessly on the street alone, and the little servant Chen Gang followed nervously not far away with two followers, they didn't know why the master rushed into the palace, and the time when he came out was as if he had lost his soul, so he could only do his best to prevent the master from being hurt by anything else.

When Qian Jun had consciousness in his mind, he finally stopped, and when he looked up, he saw the gate of "Qian Mansion", he waved his hand and asked Chen Gang to knock on the door: "Said I wanted to visit Qian Wenhan." ”

"Hey!" Chen Gang had already learned from Zheng Xin's mouth that the relationship between the master and the uncle of the Qian Mansion was extraordinary, so he agreed crisply, and quickly ran up and knocked on the door.

Wen Han had already told the concierge that Prince Ren did not need to be notified when he came, so the doorman immediately opened the corner door and trotted out with a smile on his face to greet him: "Lord Shizi, please come in!" ”

Qian Jun finally felt a little more comfortable.

Wen Han was reading a book in the study room of the inner courtyard, and when he received a report from his subordinates, he hurriedly dressed and came to the outer courtyard, and Qian Jun was already standing in the hall.

"When did you come back? Come, come and sit in my study. He reached out and grabbed Qian Jun's arm, and his eyes were smiling with joy.

"Arrived home yesterday afternoon." Seeing his friend, the haze in Qian Jun's heart dissipated, and the two talked about the reason for parting.

Wen Han now, except for reading or reading every day, there is nothing to say, Qian Jun finished his errand in three sentences, and asked Wen Jin urgently: "How is Wen Jin doing?" "Good!" Wen Han has now accepted the matter of Wen Jin and Qian Jun, and as soon as he heard the inquiry, he immediately reported it automatically, "The county lord's mother is very good, she has no shelf, she is very kind and gentle, she has a good relationship with Wen Jin, and she also cares for all of us." ”
