spring boudoir secret

Chapter 18 Some people are happy and some are sad

Zhao Mingruo nodded solemnly, "Yes, there are more varieties of seedlings, which are suitable for cultivation in spring and summer."

"I also see that the weather seems to be a bit bad. If it doesn't rain, there will be drought and famine. It is also the time when there are many diseases and insects in spring. Let's prepare more seedlings to be prepared."

Shen Qingshan was thoughtful.

Zhao Mingruo said, "By the way, I handed over the two jewelry shops on Dongling Street to the second master to take care of."

Shen Qingshan was even more curious, "Those two jewelry shops were originally owned by the Marquis of Anyuan, and they have been losing money all the time. When the house was confiscated, the government looked down on them, so they kept them for the second master...?"

"Yes, he gave it to him if he wanted it."

"Take good care of him, let him taste the sweetness first, and then fall hard, don't be too deliberate."

Markets are like battlefields.

Gu Changheng, the young master of the Hou Mansion who never touches the spring water, has been pampered since he was a child. He really thinks that it is a good thing to take care of these properties of the Hou Mansion.

You won't know the pain until you fall somersault yourself.

Shen Qingshan smiled, "Understood."

After he left, Ah Fu was puzzled, "Why do Madam need so many seedlings to make clothes?"

Zhao Mingruo said indifferently, "Rats will be infested in Yuzhou for a generation, which will harm the farmer's seedlings. After a while, there will be cold waves and droughts, and a large number of victims will soon flood into Lin'an City."

Ah Fu panicked, "This...how good is this?"

"Then madam, why don't you hoard more food, it will be very easy to sell by then."

Zhao Mingruo shook her head, she is a realistic person, she knows the truth that a man is not guilty but he is guilty.

"Natural disasters and droughts, food shortages everywhere, why she hoards so much food here to sell, she will definitely be targeted by jealous people, we have no foundation in the imperial court, and we only rely on a Houfu with no real power. The natural disaster of Lin'an City has gained a firm foothold."

"Instead of waiting for the imperial court to forcibly expropriate and the victims are rushing to grab it, it's better for us to fall short, so it's better to make more preparations."

"Buying seedlings can be donated in exchange for labor, so that those victims can use their own strength to earn money for food, and it is also convenient for them to farm again."

The plague of rats and the drought caused millions of victims, and four states were involved. It lasted for a year and a half before it eased slightly. She saved ten or a hundred, but not all of them.

Others may not necessarily believe her words.

It is better to teach him to fish than to teach him to fish.

Dou Mi En rises Mi Qiu.

Everyone understands these principles.

What Zhao Mingruo has to do is to consider helping others while ensuring that she can benefit herself. She is still a businessman after all.

I hope that other businesses can do the same at that time, and coupled with the government's relief and suppression, the disaster that lasted for more than a year in the previous life is expected to end a little earlier.

"This matter is confidential, and it must not be leaked to her casually."

Ah Fu said solemnly, "I understand."

"It's getting late, put out the candles and go to rest."

"Yes."

Yunyao Courtyard turned off the lights early and slept well.

The people in other courtyards of the Hou Mansion were not in such a good mood.

Anhui Court.

"Aunt, did my cousin really go to the yard of the newly married aunt?"

She had been persevering along the way, but when she arrived in front of the old lady, Yun Suiwan couldn't hold on any longer, and her tears fell like broken beads.

The old lady felt sorry for her grandson in her belly, and hurriedly stepped forward to welcome her to the bedside carefully, "Wanwan, you have to take good care of yourself."

"Taking a concubine was not Heng'er's intention. He was also forced to go by the shrew in the house. Don't worry, he won't change his mind, and my aunt will not allow him to be seduced by that vicious son."

"The future mistress of the Hou Mansion is only you."

Only then did Yun Suiwan burst into tears and smiled, "Thank you, Auntie."

The old lady touched her belly happily, she was so happy that she couldn't say anything, this was Heng'er's first child, and also her first grandson, she only hoped that it would be a boy, so that when she fights for the title of the Marquis in the future, can be even more beneficial.

"Wan Wan, since you're back, don't leave, just live in the Hou's mansion with peace of mind, so that your aunt and your cousin can take care of you. When the right opportunity comes, we must give you a title, It's not in vain that you worked so hard to carry Heng'er's flesh and blood.

Yun Suiwan smiled inwardly, but was troubled on the face, "Aunt... Wanwan knows that her aunt is kind, but Wanwan is still pregnant with a child, what kind of identity should our mother and son face the second cousin? "

"If she asks..."

Yun Suiwan choked up and shed tears of grievance.

The old lady said in a cold voice with a straight face, "It's not up to her, a wild girl, to have the final say in the Hou Mansion for the time being. You just need to live in peace, and Auntie will make decisions for you if you have anything to do."

A smile appeared on Yun Suiwan's small face, and she held the old lady's arm affectionately, "Auntie is so kind, and Auntie treats me best."

Deep dew at night.

The big room of Yushengju also did not sleep well.

Mrs. Wang was wearing a fur coat, sitting in front of the red sandalwood carved dowry combing her black hair. It was already late at night when the eldest Gu Changming returned from the Imperial Academy.

"Husband, you were in the imperial examination for two years in the second house, and you were an editor. Even if they don't catch up for a few years, you still have to pay attention to your body."

Wang persuaded softly, and submissively handed her husband a cup of hot tea to undress.

Although she is only a seventh-rank, she is already very proud that her husband has achieved such an achievement before he is established, and his achievements are much higher than those of his peers.

Gu Changming took the teacup and sipped lightly, "You don't understand official affairs."

"My background is low, and my talent is not outstanding. The only thing I can fight is hard work. Although I am much ahead of others, it is inevitable that they are young and do not know how deep they are."

"If you wait for them to wake up and start working hard, you will have to come later."

The orange candlelight flickered slightly, and on Gu Changming's upright and dignified face, black eyes flashed a vicious and vicious look. He especially couldn't be compared by Gu Changheng. To step on their feet to vent their anger for their mother and son for so many years.

Soon, Gu Changheng calmed down, "Ma'am, why are you up so late, do you have something to wait for me?"

This is right on point.

Wang suddenly said with a solemn expression, "Husband, something is wrong with the second sibling recently."

"How to say?"

"The second younger sibling, who has always been infatuated with the second younger brother, even offered to take a concubine for her husband."

Wang said, "Looking at what she means, she has no intention of competing for the title for the second child, but is showing favor to us."

Gu Changming paused, his eyebrows furrowed.

This is strange, he can see Zhao Mingruo's infatuation, he will never leave him even in times of trouble, how could he suddenly change his sexuality?
I'm afraid it's a fraud.

But this is another great opportunity.

"Find time to try her out and see if there is a real estrangement between the husband and wife, or if the two of them are making a scene to lure us into the game."
