The curtain came down after Yuan Su sent out the box of jewelry, the world was quiet again, and before the New Year was over, the Cheng family began to be busy again.

When the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year is over, all staff will not stop.

Cheng Youyi and Cheng Yousan are going to Dongshu to study, there are many things to arrange before leaving, and the departure date is set after Cheng Xiaosi gets married, and there is not much time left for them.

Xiao He no longer went to the dart game, and asked someone from the Xiao family to help take care of it, while he stayed at home to take care of Cheng Xiaosi's marriage.

The Qin family is even more busy, in addition to the trivial matters at home, he also shoulders the heavy responsibility of going to various families in the city to attend banquets, and there are many invitations to the Cheng family, Xiao He does not have to go to every family, Cheng Daqian learned the importance of female dependents from the matter of Hualou, since it is important, it must be taken seriously.

"Speaking of which, the ladies of our family are all about the same temperament, and they don't have that interest or the leisure to sit down and gossip with others, we are like this, and the girls who marry are also like this, and they are still a little worse in terms of making friends."

This is the shortcoming of the Cheng family's daughters, so far neither Xiao He nor the Qin family has a particularly good wife in the capital, and there is no source.

Xiao He sighed, "We're all working hard this year, let's take our time." “

Qin nodded, it could only be like this.

At this time, Cheng Daqi also stood in front of the emperor and said that he would send his two sons to Dongshu, and the emperor agreed after thinking for a while, "It's okay, not to mention that Dongshu's business has been relatively prosperous in recent years, and there is indeed something commendable, how long will it take to come and go?" ”

Cheng Daqi said that he would probably be able to come back before the year, if he delayed it again or if there was anything particularly worth learning, "I will have to wait for next year." ”

The emperor sighed in his heart, that is, he wished that he would be able to return tomorrow if he went today, "You can explain this matter on your own, and you don't have to make a noise, just go out to the outside world." ”

Cheng Daqi also means this, if the news is released, I am afraid that it will not stop, and there will be a lot of people who go to Dongshu at that time.

After saying this, Cheng Daqi presented an excerpt again, it was their brother's plan for the New Year at home, the emperor looked at it carefully, full of hope, and hoped that it would be implemented as soon as possible, Cheng Daqi struggled for a long time and finally said the core purpose of his coming today, looking for the emperor to ask for money.

The Cheng family has done so much work for the emperor, and they have never asked the emperor for the capital, the Cheng family first advances and then deducts it from the profits, but this is a commercial house of the imperial court, and the capital required in the early stage is too large, and it is not appropriate for their Cheng family to advance money into it.

The emperor, who was accustomed to only looking at the profits and not the capital, did not react for a while, Cheng Daqi stubbornly continued: "It is best for the firm affiliated to the imperial court to pay from the court with full power, so that it can save a lot of trouble. ”

"If Weichen pays in advance, the lords in the court are afraid that they will say that Weichen is using power for personal gain and wants to turn the court's business into the Cheng family."

emperor

He has finished speaking, what else can he do?

"Let Yuan Pei dial. Fifty thousand taels for you, is it enough? “

The corners of Cheng Daqi's mouth twitched slightly, "If you can, can you allocate 100,000 taels?" ”

The emperor is too stingy, he wants to use 50,000 taels to win 5 million taels?

"Wechen will definitely make careful calculations, save some money, and let the firm see the profits as soon as possible."

Yuan Wu's kid also gave him a small 420,000 taels of fat powder money, and the emperor actually wanted to spend 50,000 taels to run a commercial house, hey~~~

He said that 100,000 taels still had to be carefully calculated, what could the emperor say?

"That's right."

Daqi has done so much business for him for so long and made so much money that he has forgotten that he must have capital to do business first.

Coming out of the imperial study, Cheng Daqi sighed helplessly, feeling so tired, he didn't walk a few steps away and saw a few courtiers walking towards him with a smile, and he felt that it was worth it, how much he mixed a little power in his hands, and there was a big cake drawn by the emperor for him in front.

"Count again, don't miss anything"

Xiao He at home is counting the dowry with a dowry list, because Yuan Su sent another box of jewelry, all of which must be registered, Cheng Xiaosi said, "This is the last count, every count is so troublesome, don't add it from now on, it's enough." ”

She felt that she would never be able to use up so much dowry in her life.

Xiao He nodded and said that he would not add it, but Cheng Xiaosi was not at ease, "It's really not to add it, it's troublesome if there are too many things, and I have to take care of it often in the future, it's so close, if I lack anything and the Yuan family doesn't have it, I'll just come back and get it." “

Xiao He sighed, "Where is there a lot of dowry, this dowry is more than the waist is hard, and there will be a lot of places to spend money in the future, these things will be used for your children and grandchildren to marry, where will there be more." ”

The corners of Cheng Xiaosi's mouth twitched slightly, and she didn't dare to imagine what it was like for her grandson to marry her.

The days passed day by day, and when Yuansu entered February, he was not allowed to see Cheng Xiaosi, and Mama Fang also took out the husband-raising method of the ladies in the palace and began to nourish Cheng Xiaosi's skin, and even the daily meals were medicated for conditioning.

At the same time, Mama Fang also relied on her relationship to find Cheng Xiaosi an updated map of the relationships between the various families in Beijing, and asked Cheng Xiaosi to sort out the relationships here, after getting married, she will go out to the banquet on behalf of the Yuan family, and she can no longer laugh and joke with unmarried girls as before, I have to take on the responsibility of the high-ranking women.

"Why is it so troublesome to get married."

Cheng Xiaosi, who was dizzy on his back, sighed weakly, and Huahua poured tea and water on the side, "Girl, it's not difficult, carry more back." ”

The original Cheng Xiaosi didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, as a girl, she naturally learned the same, Mama Fang's good days came to an end when she came, and Cheng Xiaosi was familiar with these backs, but she wouldn't say that she was forced to carry by Mama Fang and cried secretly at that time, it was really too difficult.

Mama Fang also said on the side: "It's really not difficult, it's easy to start a family and it's hard to keep a family, work harder now, it will be much easier in the future, carry it." ”

CHENG Xiaosi.

At night, Huahua touched Cheng Xiaosi's bedroom, and felt that Cheng Xiaosi, who was overusing her brain, had already lay down, and saw her standing in front of her bed stirring her fingers, and opened her eyes, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

Huahua raised her eyes, and then knelt down with a puff, startling Cheng Xiaosi, turning over and sitting up, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Girl, can I get married in the future?"

Cheng Xiaosi was dumbfounded, "Of course you can, who won't let you get married?" ”

Huahua's eyes were red, "Girl, I want to get married, I want to be a genuine wife, I don't want to be a concubine." ”

"You get up and speak, who made you a concubine?"

"You are my man, who can persecute you if I don't promise?"
