Wen Wan chatted with Meier about home affairs. As we chatted, we naturally talked about business matters.
Wen Wan smiled and talked about the pearl workshop and the watch workshop: "Right now, we are only producing in small quantities. In two years, we will be able to produce in large quantities. By then, if we use pearls, they will not be so expensive."
Meier admired Wen Wan for this: "It's just your brain. Who would have thought that pearls can be cultivated. But the effect of applying pearls on your face is really very good." After saying that, she didn't forget to touch it. My own smooth and white cheeks. Speaking of which, she is already the mother of four children. But when I go out to socialize, others look at me with smiles and it doesn¡¯t look like me at all. Although it is not comparable to Wenwan, she is already very satisfied with the effect.
Meier talked about the property under her name and said it was rich. After hesitating for a while, he asked: "Zhenzhen sold several shops under his name to raise money to pay off debts. Those shops are all in excellent locations. As soon as the news was released, someone came up to buy them. If it weren't for my identity, It's inconvenient, but I want to buy it! "If it weren't for the excellent location, it wouldn't have been possible to sell it so quickly without being priced down.
Wen Wan knew about this: "I raised the supply price for her to be the same as others. Maybe I saw that there was not much profit left and I was in urgent need of money, so I sold it!" These were all properties that were added later. . After all, it was Su Zhenzhen's dowry.
Seeing Mei'er's hesitant expression, Wen Wan said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to give some convenience to the children in the future. The dowries will be generous. Who would have imagined that I would fill in the loopholes. You also have three shops, so you should too. I know how much income they can make every year. This money is not enough to ensure that they will have enough food and clothing for a lifetime. It's a pity that people don't take these small profits seriously, so why should I rush to make a lot of money. It makes people feel disgusted! Don't say anything for them, they can't live without these properties. They still have dozens of properties and can live a prosperous life." Wen Wan said this with a clear voice. It's sarcasm.
Seeing the sarcasm on Wen Wan's face, Meier couldn't bring herself to talk about this topic anymore. Strange things come and go, and I can only blame them for not sparing their blessings. What more can be said!
Wen Wan doesn¡¯t want to talk about this unpleasant topic. Looking at the child on the Cuju. I happened to see Leopard Brother fall and eat shit. Before Meier could scream in surprise, Brother Bao quickly got up again and continued.
Wen Wan turned around and asked Meier: "Brother Bao is also eleven years old this year." I remember that at this age, marriage is about to be discussed.
Meier: "We have reached the age of proposing marriage. But look, not to mention Brother Leopard, even Brother Tiger is just like a child. He even plays Cuju. If others knew about it, he wouldn't know how to laugh."
Wen Wan smiled and said: "The child is still young. Besides, a son is different from a daughter. I think my son still needs to be married later. It's too early to say it now." Brother Tiger had no choice, but Brother Leopard was different. . I won¡¯t say anything about her special situation.
Meier smiled: "I think so too. But I think Mingjin is also very good. What kind of wife are you looking for for Mingjin in the future?" Although Wen Wan reluctantly agreed with Yan Qixuan. But the possibility of getting married between the princess's palace and Prince Chun's palace is very small.
Wen Wan shook her head: "I don't know.
Meier was shocked by Wen Wan's remarks: "Wen Wan, this eldest daughter-in-law must stay in the capital to serve her parents and raise their children. How can she follow her husband?" This is the case for all wealthy families. of. The eldest daughter-in-law must stay at home. The reason is just as Meier said.
Wen Wan shook his head: "I won't even be forty when Mingrui gets married, so I will have to serve my daughter-in-law everywhere. She has to be served, and there will be no maids and wives! The husband and wife separated just after they got married. The pain in this process is I don¡¯t know. I¡¯m pretty good. I have so many things to do and I don¡¯t have time to think about it. But who knows about those other women? Hey, I¡¯ve suffered like this myself, and I don¡¯t want my daughter-in-law to suffer too. Such pain. I can't guarantee whether I can stay with you forever, but as long as I can hold on, I won't let them separate." Wen Wan knew that the latest age for the two children to get married is seventeen. At the age of eight, she will be a mother-in-law before she reaches forty. Of course, Wenwan would do this even if her daughter-in-law was not Yixuan. From the time I was a teenager, I stayed alone in an empty house and then stayed there until I was old and golden. Just thinking about it makes me feel guilty.
Wenwan often hears that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies. In fact, it is both right and wrong. Natural enemies are only equal. As long as both parties are more considerate, although they cannot be as close as mother and daughter, they can still get along harmoniously.
Mei'er's heart moved: "Wen Wan" In fact, she had been worried about this. But this is not just Yixuan's problem, everyone who marries into a general must be like this, even Wen Wan is no exception. Can her daughter be an exception? When I heard Wen Wan's words, I was very moved.
Wen Wan knew what Mei'er meant, so she continued with a smile: "What are those rules?"??What the hell. The rule is that the dead are alive. And if the couple separates not long after they get married, where will my grandchildren come from? Not every couple can conceive within three months of getting married. Even if she is pregnant, she will be a pitiful one. I also want to be surrounded by children and grandchildren when I grow old! "
Meier smiled and nodded repeatedly.
When I went back, I talked about this topic with Ping'er: "I didn't expect Wen Wan to have such thoughts. This is good, my heart is at ease." Even if I can't be with you all the time, I can be with you for ten years. In eight years, it would be good to have more children.
Ping'er also repeatedly praised: "The princess's ideas are very different from others, our girl is lucky." Generally, in a wealthy family like this, the head wife cannot follow her. So I will choose one or two that I like to follow. When the time comes, there will be one or two lucky ones under the wife's lap, but none of them will be left alive, and those concubines will pop out one by one. Outsiders look at it and think they have many descendants, but only those involved know the pain involved. By doing this, the princess ended this possibility.
Mei'er was glad for this: "Wen Wan has always hated concubines. She also won't like grandchildren who are concubines. Now it is a top priority for Yixuan to take good care of her body." Not only must she take good care of herself, but she must also take good care of her. Must be well maintained. Otherwise, if Yixuan is not in good health. Meier will not doubt that Wenwan will break off the engagement. But if he can't follow, there will definitely be a concubine by his side. Men are all sneaky cats. As for keeping one's body as pure as jade, that's a joke. I have only seen General Bai in so many years. He couldn't guarantee that Ming Rui would follow his father on this point.
Mei'er will discuss it with Luo Shouxun after she returns. Luo Shouxun felt that this would be more difficult for his daughter. No matter where he went, he would never be as comfortable as in the capital.
Mei'er really wanted to spurn Luo Shouxun: "It's just that we have good food and clothing every day. It's not a comfortable life if the husband and wife are not together. Wen Wan can speak, it's for the sake of our love. I tell you, you have to think of a way for me, don't talk anymore These are the words.¡±
Luo Shouxun thought for a while and then said: "Wen Wan means nothing more than hoping that my daughter will be in good health and can follow Mingrui in the future. In this way, let my daughter learn Wu Qin Xi, which can strengthen her body!"
Mei'er thought for a while and then said: "Sure, you go and ask someone who is more proficient in this to teach Yixuan. Then you can practice it in your own yard and don't spread it out." It is said that the posture of Wuqinxi is unsightly. In this way, you can't practice it outside, and it's best not to spread it.
Luo Shouxun thought for a moment and then said, "How about letting Xin'er follow suit."
Meier shook her head: "There is nothing we can do about Yixuan, Xin'er still doesn't want it." She also wanted to teach a girl who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. The eldest daughter was asked to do this by her husband's family, so she had no choice but to do so. We can't bring harm to our little daughter. Besides, if the younger daughter marries into a scholarly family, wouldn¡¯t it be a joke to learn this?
The couple talked about Cao Song. Luo Shouxun couldn't help but sigh and said: "Who knew that Cao Song would be so unlucky that he married the princess. It's okay to marry the princess, but he is still such an unbearable person. It would be a good thing for Cao Song not to return to the capital. If he returns to the capital , Then I don¡¯t know how to meet people!¡± The eldest princess actually raised a noodle in the princess¡¯s mansion, which made her feel sick and panicked.
Meier shook her head: "Who can blame him? It's not even his own fault." If Cao Song didn't have a wife to add fragrance, Wen Wan might have gotten married!
Luo Shouxun disagreed: "This is Cao Song's bad luck. How can he blame himself!" He didn't comment on Wen Wan. But there is a beautiful girl in the house serving the pen and ink, which is common in wealthy families.
Mei'er sarcastically said: "If you don't blame him, who can blame him? You said it's something that happens to all wealthy families, but it depends on the situation. Have you ever seen anyone who married a princess and put a woman like Dan Niang by his side to serve the pen and ink? . They still have feelings for each other. Don¡¯t they know this rule? Why did they dare to do this? It was just because the prince didn¡¯t know how to do it. Daughter, do you think she dares to do this? All this is the fault of her own family. Who can blame her?"
Luo Shouxun was knocked mute for five times. He could no longer argue and went out angrily. He used to be gentle and sweet, but now he is becoming more and more domineering and unreasonable. They quarreled at every turn, no matter how many times they had it.
Ping'er persuaded Mei'er and said, "Madam, please give in to me." It's not a problem to quarrel all the time.
Meier snorted coldly: "What do you want to do? I'm not wrong. I'll do whatever I want to do for him. Love is as good as it is. I don't care about it." You can go wherever you fall in love. Anyway, she is firmly on her heels now, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Don't let go of that cowardice. I had enough when I was young. Do you want him to be angry?
Ping'er shook his head and stopped talking.
LuoLuo Shouxun saw that Mei'er had not lowered her figure for two days. Regarding his wife's increasingly aggressive attitude, Luo Shouxun was a little depressed: "It's all because of Wenwan." It is said that the red is the best and the black is the black. This is indeed a good thing.
Bai Shinian, who was in the border town, got the news that Mingrui had followed Guan Erlang to Haikou. Bai Shinian was a little surprised and couldn't help but said to himself: "What are you doing Wen Wan? Mingrui is only seven years old, how dare you let him go?" Isn't there something wrong with taking this child out? "Wen Wan loves her child so much, how could she let her child go out at the age of seven?
Not to mention that Bai Shinian was a little strange, even Ye Xun was puzzled: "The princess should not be the one who wants to encourage others!" Of course, it is even more impossible to follow his son, and Wen Wan is not the kind of son who can do whatever he wants. What a person. There should be other reasons.
Bai Shinian regarded Ye Xun as a confidant: "Perhaps Wenwan asked Mingrui to go to Haikou to check the construction status of the island." Wenwan built the island, such a huge project cannot be hidden. Of course, Wen Wan never thought of hiding it. But most people really don¡¯t know what is going on on the island. Because when the first batch of houses are completed, they will return to the mainland. No one knows what's going on inside.
Ye Xun shouted: "Marshal, Mingrui is only seven years old!"
Bai Shinian also knew that he was seven years old, and felt that it was too early to be gentle. But he still said with a smile: "Then think about what Wen Wan did when he was seven years old." Wen Wan was able to fight against King Zhao at the age of six, and started his own business and made a lot of money at the age of seven.
Ye Xun rolled his eyes. He wanted to say that the princess was a monster. Do you think that there will be another evildoer in your family? That is really a blessing from the Buddha to your Bai family. However, these words also made me sneer in my heart. I really dare not say it.
Not long after, Bai Shinian received a gentle letter from home. But this time it was much better. The letters are much thicker than before. But what we are talking about is nothing more than some things about the eldest family members and the shortcomings of the family. The focus is on Mingrui¡¯s trip to Haikou. Wen Wan's reason in the letter was nothing more than Mingrui's hunger strike. Bai Shinian's eyes widened when he saw it, and he cursed in his heart. He was so young and dared to threaten his parents. He was going against the grain.
After reading the letter, I went out. At night, according to the previous method, I found out the real reason why Mingrui went to Haikou. Bai Shinian slapped his hand in the air. Hateful, extremely hateful. I didn't expect that Mingjin's matter would be caused by those traitors. It's really hateful.
After Bai Shinian calmed down, he thought about the emperor's plan to conquer in person. Bai Shinian sighed slightly. To be honest, he really didn't want the emperor to lead the expedition in person. It's not that I'm afraid that the emperor will take credit for it, but I feel that it's very dangerous. These people watched eagerly before the emperor left the capital again. Wen Wan and Ming Jin are in danger.
Bai Shinian was worried. But Bai Shinian also knew that the emperor's decision was irreversible. As long as the war starts, the chance of winning is 99%. The emperor wanted to leave his name in history. Therefore, no amount of trouble could stop the emperor from coming to the border town. All he could do was ensure the emperor's safety. Now that the emperor is well, no matter how chaotic the capital is, there will be no chaos left.
Bai Shinian's helplessness at this time was the same as Wen Wan's
