Chapter 166: Gossip and make money
The prince of Changping Hou got married, so naturally it was not good to divide the house immediately, but Mrs. Shizi was trustworthy, but after ten days of hard work, she actually sent everything on Mrs. Hou's dowry list.
Some of them were secretly sold by my aunt's brother, so they converted them into silver and sent them over.
Qiao Chu was not interested in these, so he directly asked Qiao Xiaofu to count, saying that it would be left for Qiao Xiaofu's three sisters to marry in the future.
Qiao Xiaofu looked at the long and thick dowry list, and his eyes were wet.
It stands to reason that at least half of the dowry list is for my aunt, but my aunt doesn't want it at all, saying that it's all for herself......
Mrs. Shizi, who personally sent the dowry list, pulled Qiao Chu and ran upstairs, talking about the process of coming back these dowries.
It turned out that the two brothers of the aunt took advantage of their positions to embezzle a part of the dowry, and took advantage of the power of the Marquis of Changping to do some business outside, but they did not lose anything.
After Mrs. Shizi entered the door, she naturally became a housekeeper immediately, so she forced the two internal and external stewards to return the money within a limited time.
When you spit it out something in your mouth, you naturally don't want to.
Internal and external stewards are ready to use the "procrastination trick", and then sell miserable or something, according to the convention, the big family has a good face, and it is always difficult to do too much.
However, Mrs. Shizi is not a rule-abiding person, so she sued the yamen directly!
Now the two internal and external stewards didn't vomit, and they sold the field shop in their hands, and they barely filled the deficit!
The aunt wanted to intercede, but Mrs. Shizi only said: "If you want your brothers to have a little less, it's not impossible to ......."
The aunt felt that there was a play, and waited for Mrs. Shizi to speak.
Who knew that Mrs. Shizi said: "The part they are missing, you can come out." After all, you've spent a lot of ...... here."
When my aunt heard this, she immediately shut up: she had indeed embezzled a lot of jewelry shops.
If she had to choose between her brother and herself, she chose to take care of herself first without hesitation.
When Mrs. Shizi said this, her eyebrows fluttered, imitating her aunt's expression and tone vividly, making Qiao Chu laugh!
Only then did she know that this Miss Liang Er was such a wonderful person!
His eldest brother is more than calm and not funny, but Miss Liang Er is very complementary to him, and this marriage is good.
Mrs. Shizi is a talkative person, and after saying this, she talked about how to clean up the concubines and concubines in the Changping Marquis Mansion......
also talked about the situation on the side of the eldest princess.
However, compared with the gossip of the Marquis of Changping's own house, she said much more vaguely about the gossip of the Great Prince's Mansion.
After her eldest sister married the eldest prince, she is now just living her own life, and she basically has no expectations for the eldest prince.
The two of them respect each other like ice, each passing their own way, only maintaining a polite appearance, without a word of intimacy.
Therefore, the eldest prince suppressed Tianxiangfang, and the eldest princess did not know.
Qiao Chu understood that his stepsister-in-law was excusing the eldest princess, saying that this matter had nothing to do with the eldest princess, and let him not hold a grudge against the eldest princess.
Even if she is out of the pavilion, there are still girls who want to help, and this princess is actually quite happy.
Qiao Chu couldn't help but think of Rong Liu.
The ruthless man who was willing to sacrifice himself to the eldest prince for the sake of glory and wealth has not seen her recently, and he doesn't know if he was beaten to death? Or what's wrong?
When Mrs. Shizi said goodbye and left, Qiao Chu asked Qiao Xiaofu, who had been messing around with Mrs. and Miss all day long, if he knew the news of Rong Liu.
Qiao Xiaofu nodded: "I heard that the mix has been pretty good recently." Very virtuous, he was very happy to serve the eldest princess and the two side concubines......"
Qiao Chu was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and he had to admire.
This Rong Liu is sober: he knew that the eldest prince was unreliable, so he simply took refuge in the master's mother!
In the evening, Wei Wan came again, brought the contract, and also gave a new proposal.
"We are going to plant all kinds of medicinal herbs in two Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing. You make balm and fat powder, do you want fresh herbs? Or do we cooperate? ”
Qiao Xiaofu and Cui Xiuxiu's eyes immediately lit up: if there are a few flavors of medicinal herbs, if there are fresh, it is naturally better!
In particular, it is best to make lipstick, blush, and flower dew with fresh flower petals, which will not only make things of better quality, but also more gimmicks......
Ahem, ahem! It's just more flattering!
So Qiao Xiaofu immediately began to calculate, how much would it cost to buy a Zhuangzi with fields in the suburbs of Beijing, and what would be more cost-effective to plant......
Qiao Chu watched the whole process, but he was thinking in his heart: he can't use his spiritual power to regulate his body now, let alone cultivate, so he can only grow some medicinal materials in the Xianfu space......
Now that the fields of the Xianfu space have been greatly expanded, there is still a lot of vacant land that has not been used.
Why don't you plant some herbs that they can use to make balm and fat powder?
Thinking of it, Qiao Chu opened his mouth and asked Wei Wan to buy seeds for various medicinal herbs and flowers.
Many flowers are actually medicinal herbs themselves, and Wei Wan's Chunhui Hall can really harvest seeds.
So Wei Wan readily agreed.
After signing the contract and negotiating a new cooperation, Wei Yun was also very happy: "I will call someone to pick you up tomorrow, let's go to the suburbs of Beijing to see the Grange together, and start doing it as soon as possible, right?" ”
Qiao Chu looked at Wei Yun: "Is it so urgent?" ”
Wei Yun smiled: "There is a letter from the palace, saying that it is to enter the palace as soon as possible." I'm afraid that after I get in, it won't be easy to come out later. ”
This is also the last contribution to my mother's family.
"Have you met the Five Princes?" Qiao Chu asked suddenly.
Wei Wan also smiled: "I met at the gate of Tianxiangfang that day, isn't it?" ”
"What do you think of him?"
Wei Wan instantly remembered the quarrel between Zhao Xiang and Qiao Xiaofu, and couldn't help but smile.
Qiao Chu then nodded: "It seems that I am very satisfied." ”
Wei Wan was instantly embarrassed and hammered Qiao Chu with a fist: "Don't talk nonsense!" I didn't have ......."
"That's dissatisfied?" Qiao Chu teased her.
"You're a man...... I won't tell you......" Wei Wan glared at Qiao Chu coquettishly.
Qiao Chu laughed, how did he feel like he was molesting the son of a good family.
After laughing, Qiao Chu asked about the maid who followed him when he was in Qiaojia Village before.
Wei Wan said indifferently: "She colluded with my sister to drug me, and by mistake made my teratoma worse...... After the matter was found out, my sister-in-law pushed her out to take the blame, and she was killed by my sister-in-law......"
Both men were silent for a moment.
For this kind of girl who betrays the master, neither of them can sympathize.
For the Grange and the like, Qiao Chu was not good at it, and he didn't interfere, so he only asked Qiao Xiaofu and Cui Xiuxiu to go with him to buy the Grange, and determined what seeds were needed and how many manpower......
Qiao Chu has been sleepy lately, as if he can't sleep enough, and he doesn't want to move except for boxing.
------Off topic------
Today's limit is free, and it should have been two watches.
But thinking that my dear ones are so supportive of me, what if I update one more chapter?
So three more.
Anyway, going back to my parents' house to break corn, it's really healing!
I used to hate farm work!
To this end, I tried to climb out of the countryside......
It turns out that if you want to heal yourself, you must first accept your past. Sure enough, the way of heaven is good reincarnation......
