Chapter 67

The Shen family is 108,000 miles away from the south of the Yangtze River. There must be something wrong with the accounts of the shop there, otherwise Zhou Bing would not have worked for so many years. If Chen Niang’s brother is good, it is probably not that easy to let him go. Chen Niang wants to be upright unless Chen Jin has not re-sentenced and has gained fame and fortune. However, if the brothers in the aunt’s family manage the industry, they are afraid that no matter who re-sentenced the Chen Jin, they will not tolerate it... But this matter was agreed by the original wife during her lifetime... From another perspective, if this industry is always under the control of Aunt Chen, she will not let her brothers do whatever they want to do for the future of her re-sentenced. In a sense, Li’s family is counting on one stone.

At that time, for this matter, I am afraid that the Shen family will be in a state of recession!

Li did not mean to hide it from Chen Muqing: "Look clearly, learn a little!"

Chen Muqing just hugged Li's shoulder pity.

Then Li took her to Baizhifang.

The house of Baizhifang is located in the middle of Sijiao Hutong. It is a five-bedroom and three-in-one room with ear rooms. The whole courtyard covers an area of ​​seven or eight acres. The ear room on the east side of the fallen seat is a gatehouse, and the next one opens a Ruyi door. The two rooms next to the door are connected to an open hall, and the other two rooms are made into a guest room. The ear room on the west side is arranged into a small hall. The main house and the wing room are connected into a "hui" shape. There are three rooms on the right and left wing rooms, and all of them are equipped with ear rooms. The ear room on the east side of the main house is a kitchenette, and the half opens the corner door to lead to the small garden and the back cover room. There is a small corner door open to the east of the rear cover room. Behind the door is a small alley about two meters wide. The alley is paved with bluestone, winding, and the pink walls on both sides are towering and sparsely populated, but it is cleaned.

Li pointed to the pink wall and smiled, "The opposite one is the Sihai family in Fushang District, Guangdong. Their family started by doing sea transportation. This alley belongs to their family. Usually there is no one living in it, so it is quiet."

Chen Muqing nodded and helped Li slowly back to the main hall.

"The rafters are all old fir trees that can be managed for several lifetimes. There are also furniture, either chicken-wand wood, nanmu, red sandalwood, and calligraphy and paintings on the walls. They are also authentic works. The porcelains offered on the long coffee table are all good things from the official kilns of the previous dynasty, and they are hard to see on the market now..."

Ben was nagging and explaining, but Chen Muqing suddenly thought of Liang Youhui's words: "...It's been hundreds of years, I'm afraid that one day a mouse will fall down and fall into her clothes..."

She couldn't help but smile.

But Li took her straight to the ear room west of the main house.

It was a study room, which was almost exactly the same as Jiusizhai's layout.

Mrs. Li pulled out a book from the bookshelf and gently stroked it.

Chen Muqing saw Chen Zhen’s handwriting on the page.

"When we returned to Kyoto, we lived here." Her face showed a pleasant smile. "He had to get up and go to court at midnight. He complained that he lived too far every day. He wanted to move back to Wisteria and lived in. He was worried that the expenses would be too high. In the middle of the night, he pulled me to tell me if I wanted to dig the two wisteria plants in Wisteria and change them to a little..." As he said, the smile on her face became lighter and lighter, "Later, the officials became bigger and bigger, and our houses were living in bigger and bigger, and the expenses were getting bigger and bigger, but we no longer had to worry about these..."

"Madam," Chen Muqing was unwilling to let Li fall into those sad memories. She smiled lightly, "So, this yard is still a Feng Shui treasure land... Is it because of this that you gave me this yard? Let me also enjoy this blessing!"

Li was interrupted by Chen Muqing. He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Yes. Speaking of which, this yard is really a treasure land of Feng Shui. Since we built this yard, not only has our homes safe, but also some of the industries that the master bought when he was a governor in Sichuan have also begun to gain profits..."

*******

When they returned home, both of them looked a little solemn.

Mother Wang had already called the people in the needle and thread team to wait.

Chen Muqing's dowry is naturally not comparable to pearls. Just clothes, they are divided into leather, cotton, clips, single, and sand. Among them, the fur is divided into sables worn in winter, lynxes, black foxes, gray rat sheepskins worn in early spring, and pearl fur; single shirts are divided into spinning silk, lake silk, cocoon silk, tulle tulle, and ground tulle tulle for summer season, hemp tulle, bright tulle, knot yarn... let alone wooden furniture and porcelain crock pots.

Li no longer cared about Baimu's marriage and left it to Wang's mother to take care of it.

Fortunately, Shen Muqing is waiting to marry, so he must learn the rules and take care of her body, so no one disturbs her. Zhu Ji's affairs are going on in an orderly manner.

Because he had been engaged to the Liang family, Chen Muqing had no preparation for Liang Youhui to come as promised. But strangely, on November 22, Liang Youhui still came.

As soon as she saw Chen Muqing, she laughed.

Zisha also stepped forward to congratulate Chen Muqing: "Congratulations to the girl!"

Chen Muqing was a bit embarrassed.

Liang Youhui really liked Chen Muqing and protected her: "Zisha, if you talk nonsense again, I will send someone to send you back."

After hearing this, Zisha hurriedly saluted Chen Muqing and apologized.

Chen Muqing ignored her and took Liang Youhui's hand into the house.

Liang Youhui came last time, and was Chen Muqing's boyfriend, but this time, he was his future sister-in-law. The people in Anyuan served him even more carefully.

The two sat down in front of the big kang next to the window of the Western Conference room, and the maids were busy serving tea and snacks.

Liang Youhui looked at Chen Muqing's house and sighed: "Our house is not as big as yours."

"But your location is good!" Chen Muqing saw that she started to "the fragrance of flowers outside the wall" again, and smiled and pushed the fruit plate in front of Liang Youhui.

Liang Youhui covered her sleeves and smiled: "I mean your new house is not as big as you live now!"

Chen Muqing was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Liang Youhui to tell her this.

Liang Youhui smiled and said, "Mom was going to clean up Conglutang for you to use, but the third brother disagreed and said he would still live in the original place. In fact, the third brother used to live in Diecueyuan is also quite good, but it is a little smaller than the room you live in now, and there is a corridor on the east wall. Although there is no one walking around normally, if the Duke of Wei's house is a banquet and the carriage is parked there, it will be very noisy."

The Liang family is an old house. Not only does she live in a place of money, but she cannot expand even if she has money. Moreover, the Liang family has elders and sisters-in-law, and it seems that she is not very rich in financial affairs. She didn't expect to be as free and live a swagger like she was in the Shen family.

Yingfen put the high-plate plate with crispy pineapple balls in front of Liang Youhui and asked with a smile: "Why don't the third young master want to move to Conglutang?"

Liang Youhui looked at the golden pineapple balls and smiled: "Except for Xianhetang where my grandmother lives and Gui'aitang where my mother lives, our family has the best scenery. But the third brother said that when the eldest brother got married, he lived in his old yard, and he also lived in his old yard."

Chen Muqing nodded slightly.

Living in a big family requires such low-key and cautiousness.

"However, my mother still hired a craftsman to wash the walls." Liang Youhui ate the crispy pineapple balls and said vaguely, "I also said that our family has a lot of furniture, so I asked my cousin's wife to come and tell your family that you don't need to make furniture. Don't agree..."

Chen Muqing laughed and said strangely: "Why?"

Liang Youhui swallowed the food in her mouth, took a breath, and said, "Many of it were used by my great-great-grandmother - would you like to use dead people?"

Chen Muqing couldn't help it anymore and burst into laughter.

Liang Youhui said unhappily: "I'm for your own good. My mother is the most frugal. This time you will use old furniture. Next time, she will care about what clothes you wear. In short, don't agree. Forget it, I won't tell you anymore. I'll see Mrs. Chen and tell Mrs. Chen."

Is there anyone who is a daughter like this?

Chen Muqing smiled even more powerfully.

Seeing that Chen Muqing didn't take her words at all, Liang Youhui said angrily: "You are still laughing, you are still laughing. I'm for your own good. When you come to your head, you will know that it's amazing."

"Okay, okay! Let's stop talking about this." Chen Muqing had also met Liang Feng's daughter. She smiled and said, "Let's talk about it then. Eat less. The wife will entertain us for lunch later. There is your favorite roasted deer tendon. It was prepared by the wife who heard that you were coming..."

Who knew that when Liang Youhui saw Li, she really said this.

Li also laughed: "Our second girl is so nice to Mu Qing."

Liang Youhui was a little proud: "Of course, my mother said that my third sister-in-law is younger than me, so she wants me to give in to her a little later."

When Mrs. Li listened, her eyes wet.

While Liang Youhui was going to the clean room, Li said to Chen Muqing: "The eldest grandmother of the Feng family came here today and also told us not to make furniture. She also said, your mother-in-law meant to let you endure for a few years. When Ji Min's career improved a little, let you make a deposit order by yourself. At that time, if there is no elder here, you can do whatever you want. Don't waste these things."

Chen Muqing was stunned.

I didn't expect Mrs. Liang to say such thoughtful words.

Li was also very moved: "Mu Qing, you have married, but you must be filial to your mother-in-law. Speaking of which, she is really good to you."

No matter what, things have been decided, so I can only find a way to make it develop in a good direction.

But the confusion in my heart was always like a thorn in Shen Muqing's heart. When she was still, she didn't feel it. When she moved, she felt a little tingling.

But she nodded repeatedly and comforted Li: "Don't worry, I will definitely be a good wife."

*******

Zhu Ji's wedding was very lively, but that was only within the Shen family. Compared with the birthday of Princess Zhen'an, it was one in the sky and one underground. It is said that the fireworks set up by the Zhen'an Palace only cost 50,000 taels of silver for the birthday of the princess.

When Liang Youhui heard this, her eyes widened: "Chengxin, you must be lying!"

After the wedding, the Liang family actually sent Liang Jimin to pick up Liang Youhui. However, Li did not follow the rules and did not see his future son-in-law, but instead pulled him into his house to talk.

Liang Jimin's twelve-year-old personal follower Cheng Xin ran to the inner house to pass a message to Liang Youhui.

He stood in front of Liang Youhui in a regular manner, but his big round eyes kept heading towards Chen Muqing: "It was said by the Thirteenth Master of the Duke of Wei."

"Bah!" Liang Youhui didn't believe it even more, "That rascal, no word is the truth."

Chengxin secretly looked at Chen Muqing again and smiled, "But the third young master nodded too!"

"Ah!" Liang Youhui was quite surprised, "That might be true!"

Chen Muqing listened and couldn't help but smile.
