- What Wen Wan didn't know was that Mrs. Su Xue was sulking at home at this time. According to the state of the princess's palace, this wedding is probably going to be very shabby. But so what, I can still find fault. After all, if a daughter marries someone else, she becomes someone else¡¯s family. When the time comes, if the husband shows off and the sister-in-law finds fault, there is nothing she can do.
¡°Ahem, I am just a biological daughter, so I just need to buy a generous dowry. However, when I think about the concubine's marriage, I feel uneasy. Unexpectedly, my father-in-law and husband found such a good marriage for that despicable girl.
Zhen Yan felt extremely proud as he saw that the Heng family was now losing power and wealth. She was probably married to someone Su Xian personally selected. Zhenyan's husband's family is the Guan family of Weiyuanhou. Her fianc¨¦ is the sixth son of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, a truly wealthy family. He is still the legitimate son. Although he is not favored, he has good character, talents and martial arts. All in all, her true appearance is considered a high achievement. After all, a concubine is paired with a legitimate son, and he is also the legitimate son of a wealthy family.
Although Mrs. Su was dissatisfied with this, what could she do? At home, the old man is the one who calls the shots. The person who spoke was the head of the family, Su Xian. Although he was helpless on the face, he still secretly resented it in his heart.
Wen Wan has not been at home this year. All matters at home and with Zhuangzi were naturally left to Shangtang. Now, naturally, I have to take over again. After some inquiries, Zhuangzi's poultry yield was more than 4,000 taels, and the rent was about more than 2,000 taels. In other words, last year, the normal profit in total was less than 10,000 taels.
Wen Wan understood now. No wonder the eldest aunt came back and said that her cousin's face looked ugly! I guess I can't buy anything decent here. I feel dissatisfied! Also, with such a biological daughter, who doesn¡¯t want the wedding to be decent and respectable.
Wenwan is not angry at all towards her cousin's loving heart, on the contrary, she is very envious. I don¡¯t know who will worry about it when I get married! He sighed secretly. Forget it, it¡¯s still early, what are you thinking about?
Wen Wan is very happy to know that the sweet potatoes on her farm now total hundreds of thousands of kilograms. Thinking of selling some to make money. If you make money. After the Chinese New Year, I will buy some land to plant more.
How did you know that Wen Wan just revealed this meaning. Song Luoyang, the teacher who happened to come to see her, said, "These are all used as seeds. You can't sell them for money. Those who can't be used as seeds are all eaten. If you dare to sell seeds to make money, Go and sell it to me." He looked like he was going to fight Wen Wan.
Wen Wan was speechless looking at the teacher's angry look. If it doesn't sell, it won't be sold. It's like ripping out your heart. Really, as a student, she is worth less than a few potatoes. As for bragging and staring at him for such a small thing.
"Wen Wan. Go and buy all the thousands of acres of land near your village. By spreading it slowly, you can save more seeds. Then I will make a deal with the emperor. Save more seeds. Then we will If these two kinds of food are popularized, they will benefit people all over the world." Song Luoyang thought about it and assigned the task to Wen Wan. Just these twenty-odd lands, even if you include the mountains and forests, are still a little less. He wanted to plant it in a large area, and when it reached a certain scale and accumulated enough seeds, he would give it to the emperor. If the emperor issues an edict to spread it, it will really solve the people's food and clothing problem.
Wenwan didn¡¯t need to think about it. Looking at the teacher¡¯s look, she knew that he had already made up his mind. Just waiting for him to come. Wen Wan didn't feel anything about this, and decided to stay for a while and let Xia Tian discuss it with several owners of the surrounding fields. I bought more than twenty hectares of land around me.
Song Luoyang looked at Wen Wan's unhappy look and hurriedly said, "Wen Wan. This is something that will benefit the people forever. Don't feel bad about these few taels of silver."
Wen Wan looked at Song Luoyang and was speechless. But seeing his look of being famous forever, she started to tease him, "Sir," the princess said. She doesn't have so much money on hand now. So, she has to give the princess some time. Wait until the New Year before buying. !¡±
After hearing this, Song Luoyang cursed angrily, "You don't have any money on hand. Don't fool me. During the last chess game, I heard that someone made a lot of money in the gambling house. If the teacher didn't guess Wrong, this person is you, right? With such a huge amount of money, you have been here crying with me for a long time, right?"
After hearing this, Wen Wan hurriedly said, buy it, buy it, buy it quickly. As long as the teacher likes it, he will buy it, and he will buy as many as he likes. She never blinked.
Song Luoyang's face looked better now.
Wenwan went back to the house to get the banknote. He muttered, really, is this a teacher? No matter how you look at it, he looks a bit like a creditor. Besides, creditors are not like this either!
"Don't look so sad, it's so ugly. Come, let us teachers and students play a good game." After Song Luoyang finished speaking, Wen Wan asked someone to take out the exquisite white jade chessboard, and the two of themGet up.
After the two of them finished playing, Song Luoyang felt extremely happy, "Girl, your chess skills are getting better and better. It's very good. I've always thought about what it would be like if you really played two games with the teacher. Unexpectedly, you To be able to get into a draw with the teacher is really beyond the teacher's expectation. Wen Wan must continue to work hard and he will become a master in the future. "
Wen Wan quickly said that it was the emperor¡¯s grandfather who did it that day. Calculating her draw, it doesn't really live up to its name. She was ashamed.
Song Luoyang smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Even without the arrival of the emperor, you will not lose. At a young age, you can make a draw with the teacher. The teacher is also convinced that he lost. Don't be humble." With such good chess skills, I will practice more with you in the future so that my chess skills will grow faster.¡±
Wen Wan remembered the first time she met her teacher, how arrogant she was, and then when he came to her door and begged her to be her student. She really couldn¡¯t stand this godly teacher. Really, at first I thought I was just a follower, but later I thought I was a treasure. Of course, Wen Wan was just complaining in her heart. The relationship between teacher and student is still as close as that of father and daughter.
"I heard that your flute playing is getting better and better now, and it has been praised as a divine tune. Teacher, I haven't heard you play it again. Let's play a tune and see how much progress you have made." Song Luoyang I was very proud when I heard my old friend praise me. But after waiting for a long time, Wen Wan made no sound.
Opening his eyes, he looked at Wen Wan writing on the paper: "I am not in this state of mind now."
Song Luoyang looked at Wen Wan. He himself knew about the rumors in the capital. Looking at Wen Wan like this, I knew the rumors were true. After a while, he sighed deeply. Regarding Wen Wan's personal matters, knowing that she was very thoughtful, it was inconvenient to say anything. He didn't continue the topic: "Since you no longer play the flute arbitrarily in the future, what musical instrument are you going to learn? In fact, most of the musical instruments are similar. Now that you have learned the flute, you can get twice the result with half the effort if you learn other things."
Wen Wan shook her head. I no longer have that state of mind. She thought that she would never be able to play the original tune now because she no longer had that mood. It¡¯s the same even if you learn other instruments.
"You silly boy, now that you have decided, I won't force you. You are just a teacher of my skills. It will be spread." Song Luoyang sighed deliberately.
"Teach Song Ji well and let him inherit his father's legacy." Song Luoyang thought deeply.
The teacher and student played another game of chess, had dinner at the Song Mansion, and then returned to the Princess Mansion. After returning to the mansion Wenwan. On the pretext of recuperating from illness, he did not take over the family affairs. The days passed were extremely pleasant.
It is already the end of the twelfth lunar month, and the weather is getting colder and colder. It's starting to snow outside. Wenwan is a person who is afraid of the cold. If he didn't go to the palace, he would stay in his room and not go out. In the house anyway. Burn the earth dragon. Very warm.
"Master, the princess asked you to come back for lunch at noon." Xia Ying said. Shang Tang responded. Didn't even ask if anything was wrong. Anyway, in this family, Wen Wan is the one who calls the shots.
"Your Majesty, Princess Wenwan has sent a message to invite you to the Princess' Mansion for dinner at noon." Prince Zheng was also surprised. This was the first time Wenwan invited him to dinner. At that moment, I felt a little curious and agreed to come up.
"Your Majesty, Princess Wenwan has come to post a message, asking you to be a guest at her house tomorrow." Prince Chun got the message and wondered if Wenwan would find something delicious to eat. very interested.
When King Zheng was going out. After thinking about it, he ordered people to call the fifth child Qi Xuan and the sixth child Qi Feng. The two got the news and came over immediately. Qi Feng's forehead was still sweating. I thought it was to test his homework.
When I came over, I heard that I was going to the Princess¡¯s Mansion with Prince Zheng. Qi Xuan had a smile on his face. Qi Feng looked at his father and then thought about the rumors in the mansion. He said that his father wanted to choose one of the two people to marry his gentle cousin. Qi Feng didn't have any objection to Wen Wan. My cousin came to his rescue last time. For this, he was still very grateful.
However, Qi Feng panicked when he thought about Wen Wan's appearance. Wen Wan's face was 90% similar to his father's, and he also had a 50% similar aura. He always stays as far away as he wants. Where can I catch up? However, I dare not disobey my father's words.
King Chun arrived at the Princess's Mansion before King Zheng, and asked King Chun gently how Qixuan was doing recently. Seeing Wen Wan asking Qi Xuan, King Chun smiled and said, "Don't worry, although that kid has been noisy for a while, he has calmed down now. As time goes by, he won't be so uncomfortable." Wen Wan was relieved. However, it is estimated that this matter will not be resolved for a year and a half.
"Sister, what happened today?" Shang Tang looked at the meal and placed a copper hotpot. Next to it were a plate of beef slices, a plate of mutton slices, a plate of mutton rolls, a plate of rabbit meat, robed meat and other dishes, piled high. There are also many pastries and so on.
"Wang ???. "Shang Tang looked at King Chun and bowed hurriedly and respectfully. King Chun waved his hand and did not greet him politely.
"Wen Wan, what's the point of eating this today?" King Chun looked at the towering pile of vegetables and was very curious. asked strangely. It seems that there is not much practice in mixing and matching this way of eating! I don¡¯t know what delicious dishes Wen Wan will come up with.
"This is the base that the princess asked me to make with old duck soup. I prepared it for several days and prepared it. The princess said it tastes good. Put all this in and eat it hot. In this winter, it has a unique flavor "Two days ago, Wenwan suddenly wanted to eat hot pot. But hot pot doesn¡¯t seem to be very popular nowadays. So, I wanted to invite a few people to try it out first. Grandma Chen was there making the condiments for several days. In the end, Wenwan did it herself. She felt it was almost done, so she posted it.
"You will know if it tastes good after eating it for a while." King Chun laughed.
¡°What, you¡¯ve invited someone else?¡± Before they even started to move, they knew there were still people. Just as he was talking, he saw King Zheng coming in from the outside with big strides. Although I had an umbrella, there was still a layer of snow on my body, especially my shoes, which were all wet. Looking at Wen Wan like that, her eyes moved.
"Hello, cousin." Qi Xuan greeted with a smile.
"Hello, cousin." Qi Feng couldn't lose his temper. Although he is not willing to get close to Wen Wan. But with his terrifying father standing next to him, and with the outsider King Chun here, he couldn't lose any courtesy.
With a gentle smile, he saluted the two of them and asked them to sit down. Then tell people to prepare more dishes. She only prepares dishes for four people.
"Here's what you're going to eat today. How do you eat it?" King Zheng and King Chun were already old acquaintances, so they said hello and sat down without being pretentious.
"Your Majesty." Shang Tang saluted hurriedly, and then sat aside tremblingly. I wailed in my heart and called the two princes to come over for dinner without telling myself. this will. Sitting with two princes, it would be so uncomfortable that it would kill someone! King Chun is better. But Prince Zheng is his real immediate boss. And with a cold face, he felt a little scared when he saw it, but he looked gentle and calm as if nothing had happened. Try to look as natural as possible.
Qi Xuan looked down upon Shang Tang¡¯s appearance. I don¡¯t know how my gentle cousin could be attracted to this appearance. Going too far and acting like a stepson to my aunt.
Qi Feng looked at Shang Tang like this and found a balance. Finally, there was someone who was more afraid of his father than him.
"The princess said, it's just like ordinary hot pot." Wen Wan used a special silver spoon. Put a spoonful of mutton rolls in the bubbling pot, and after a while. Pick it up and put it in your own bowl.
Qi Xuan smiled very elegantly, "They say that the food in my cousin's mansion is excellent. And I can often come up with outstanding dishes. It seems that I am in good luck today."
??Smiled gently. Looking at Qi Feng who was still standing, he looked a little restrained. He smiled and made a few moves towards Xia Ying, "Sixth Master, the princess said. Don't be restrained in the princess's mansion. We are all a family, there are not so many taboos. If the sixth master wants to do this, the princess will feel bad." Your Majesty, do you think the princess is right?"
King Zheng glanced at Qi Feng and said nothing.
Qi Feng secretly glanced at Prince Zheng with a straight face. And another face similar to it. But he was smiling. Busy lowered his head.
"Haha, it's really the same. It tastes good." King Chun didn't care about the interaction between a few people in the middle of the field. I took a few bites and was full of praise. I usually look down on this stuff. I feel that it is only eaten by rough people and barbarians. Because this is for the servants to eat. And northerners are not used to such spicy food. Southerners love to eat. After eating, I was sweating profusely, which was very indecent. I didn't expect this to taste so good.
"The princess said this is an improved hot pot." Wen Wan smiled and continued to put the dishes.
"Well, it tastes really good. It tastes several times better than what I had in Yizhou." King Zheng also put a mouthful of meat in his mouth and nodded in appreciation.
Wen Wan couldn¡¯t help but laugh in her heart after hearing this. This was something she had improved. This is made from the base of Lao Ya, which is made from special ingredients, and several different medicinal materials are added to it. I asked the imperial doctor and asked someone to try it. It is not afraid of getting angry, and the nutrition is not bad. The taste is naturally good. Otherwise, she would stop being so busy and ask them not to damage her sign. The food here has a good reputation.
"Well, it is indeed delicious. I will make it again tomorrow." King Chun ate happily and put down the spoon, feeling very satisfied.
King Zheng also let go and began to praise. Although Shang Tang also thought it tasted very good, he didn't dare to praise it. There are two great gods here, so it's his turn to speak. Just eat it honestly.
Qi Xuan ate less than half of the bowl, smiled and said to Wen Wan, "They say the food in my cousin's mansion is outstanding. This?It seems. It is indeed well-deserved. "
Qi Feng rarely spoke up and said, "Well, the taste is indeed good. It's also unique. Cousin, everything I've eaten at Mingyue Villa before was very delicious. Cousin, you are really amazing. I can come here often in the future. Do you want to eat delicious food? "Because of the greed for delicious food, even Wen Wan's appearance that resembles his father has been ignored.
She smiled gently and did not answer.
Seeing Wen Wan, King Chun smiled lightly but didn't answer, and King Zheng didn't say anything either.
King Chun just smiled when he looked at Wen Wan and didn't answer. But King Zheng just glanced at his two sons. So he smiled and said, "If you want to eat, ask the cook to tell the cook at home, and just do it. It's so troublesome. Besides, Wen Wan will be twelve after celebrating the New Year. Wen Wan is now talking about her husband's family." Time. Prince Zheng, you, uncle, should spend more time on this. "
"Hey" Wen Wan was not choked, but Shang Tang was choked. But Qi Feng's face turned red. King Chun's words made him react. What I said was inappropriate. Wen Wan is an unmarried girl, and her reputation is the top priority. How could he always come? I didn't expect that my temporary good talk would lead to such a common-sense mistake.
Wen Wan didn¡¯t seem to hear this, she smiled and ordered the food to be served again. Everyone else also made a tacit agreement not to talk about this topic again. The people at the table were having a great time eating.
King Chun saw that Wenwan was pretending to be stupid, as if he didn't know what King Zheng meant, and he sighed slightly in his heart. Speaking of which, Prince Zheng really loved Wenwan. The fifth and sixth sons of Prince Zheng¡¯s family are both descendants of the dragon and the phoenix. Under normal circumstances. Only they pick girls from other people¡¯s families. Where is it someone else's turn to choose them.
But King Zheng broke this rule for Wen Wan. Not only did they not worry about Wen Wan's mute disease, but they brought over the two sons who were most suitable for Wen Wan and let Wen Wan choose the right one. It seems that what Wen Wan said is indeed correct, Prince Zheng does indeed love her sincerely. However, when this love involves interests. Can it still be like this?
¡°I don¡¯t know if this matter will involve his son. cough. It seemed that it was not only his son who was being harmed. Even gentle. Such a smart child was also harmed.
After the group finished eating, when Prince Zheng left with his two sons, Xia Ying hurriedly said, "Your Majesty. The princess asked you to send some larger leathers over." All the ordinary leathers here in Wenwan were sold. She thought it was a waste because it was expensive, and she didn't use it much.
"Wenwan, you want some leather! I still have some over there. I'll call someone later and bring you some good leather. It's long past time to make some big, beautiful, warm sweaters. Children should do this. It's better to dress richly and festively." King Chun looked at the ordinary leather jacket on Wen Wan and said a few more words.
???????????????????? smiled gently and nodded. Why are you wearing such rich clothes at home? That's not how you show off. never heard of that. Understated luxury. That is true wealth. And she's still growing. No matter how good the clothes are, they can only be worn this year and not next year.
After King Zheng left with his son. King Chun looked at Wen Wan and said, "Wen Wan, I have something to tell you. I don't know if it's convenient or not."
Wenwan leads King Chun. He entered the study and waved away everyone. Seeing that Wen Wan was so calm as if she didn't know anything, she couldn't help but take the initiative to say, "Wen Wan, Prince Zheng's meaning is very clear. I see that the fifth and sixth sons of Prince Zheng's family are both good."
Wen Wan looked at him and wrote, "Who do you think I should choose?" Wen Wan was not unaware of King Zheng's actions. But just because I know, I have to pretend to be stupid. She doesn't know what will happen to her in the future, whether she will marry Yan Qixuan. But one thing she was very clear about was that she would not marry her uncle's son. Others within three generations of relatives will not be considered.
King Chun saw that Wen Wan didn't give up, "Wen Wan, I know you haven't given up. But, I still hope you give up. Qi Xuan is my son, and I know him better than you. Qi Xuan is very simple and inexperienced. It's okay. And you can foresee that your future will be full of hardships and struggles. Coupled with your talents, it may not matter to him, but Qi Xuan is a very self-respecting person. It's ugly, but it's a good thing. If you really marry him, you are much better than him. Do you think it will be okay for you to be together? Wen Wan, I know you haven't given up, but I really hope you do. You can give up. For Qi Xuan¡¯s sake, and for your own sake, give up!¡±
Wenwan looked at him, feeling helpless in her heart. However, she will definitely keep the promise she made. As long as Yan Qixuan can persist, she can persist too. But if Yan Qixuan gives up, she won't force it.
King Chun looked at Wen Wan's appearance and knew that he had not touched Wen Wan. "Let's not talk about this for now. Of the fifth and sixth children in Prince Zheng's family, I think the sixth one, Qi Feng, is more reliable, and the fifth one is a little more scheming. However, Qi Feng looked a little worried, maybe because you look like me.The king is so similar. "
Wen Wan wrote, ¡°None of this has anything to do with me.¡±
King Chun looked at Wen Wan and stopped uttering his words of persuasion. It seems that it is impossible to persuade Wen Wan, so the only way is to persuade her son.
Author's words: This chapter combines two chapters into one, it is an update of Pink 600 and 660. I was really tired today. My arms hurt so much that they hurt whenever I moved. So, I have to rest early today. Keep fighting tomorrow.
