Nongmen Fu girl group’s daily favorites

Chapter 124: This book is a big seller

After Prince An left the palace, he returned directly to the palace. One hundred volumes were distributed to the princess and the prince... After waiting for the masters in the palace, he removed more than fifty volumes and gave dozens more to the people with whom he had made friends. There was not much left, so Prince An kept it. He also sent someone to tell Jiang Zelin that as long as the person who wrote "Journey to the West" has a new work, he must be informed.

After the master of Prince An's Mansion read "Journey to the West", he went to Mo Yun's study the next day to buy books and give them to his relatives and friends.

In just five days, all 10,000 books in Mo Yun's study were sold out. When someone heard the news that even the emperor praised "Journey to the West" for its beauty, they secretly regretted that they were not well-informed and missed such a good opportunity.

The nobles in the capital all have a copy of Mo Yunzhai's "Journey to the West".

What? You don't have 'Journey to the West'? Sorry, we don't even bother to go with such a backward person.

For a time, 'Journey to the West' became a symbol of the nobility.

Then piracy became popular. Some people who could not buy genuine books bought pirated copies. But as soon as they took out the pirated books, they were laughed at. Otherwise, the paper of the pirated copies was yellow and rough, and the handwriting was not clear. . In the end, the shop where he bought pirated copies was smashed to pieces, and a certain aristocratic noble lost a lot of money.

Emperor Jingwen was secretly happy to hear this.

Uncle Qingping and the old man looked at the "Journey to the West" in their hands and were speechless for a long time. Shen Jia gave each of the masters of the Qingping Mansion a copy to see if there was anything they didn't understand.

The King of Qi and Duke Zhen, King Jin and Jiang Shoufu, King Ping and Duke Ping, King Ning and the Minister of Libu immediately discussed this matter in their respective studies.

As soon as Liu Erhu and Liu Sanlin arrived in the capital, they heard the news about the great sales of "Journey to the West". They hurriedly rented a small courtyard in Xicheng and wrote a letter to Bai Ge to send it to Shen Jia.

Liu Erhu's white pigeon is one of several homing pigeons that Shen Jia and Xiao Bai trained together.

……

Shen Jia didn't go to the county seat today. Gu Yanyan and Chen Hua had been doing it by themselves for a few days and were now very skilled. She didn't need her to watch all the time, so she just stayed at home.

Shen Zhuoyun went to Wucheng Yachang and bought twenty-five servants. They were all between the ages of twelve and eighteen, twenty boys and five girls.

Shen Jia handed them over to Ling Yunsu for training, while she herself taught everyone simple nursing knowledge. She also took them up the mountain to learn some herbs to stop bleeding and relieve pain. She also shot a lot of pheasants and hares and came back so that they could learn to suture their wounds. The intention is that when they are injured outside, they can treat the wound themselves as quickly as possible and increase the chance of saving their lives.

When Shen Jia came back from looking at the chili peppers from the hillside, she heard Bai Kou report: "Girl, there are some unkempt women outside looking for you."

Shen Jia frowned: "I'll go and have a look with you."

When Shen Jia walked out of the door, he saw five women with unkempt hair, ragged clothes, and an unpleasant smell emanating from their bodies. They lingered anxiously in place, with unconcealable worry and panic in their eyes.

When the five of them saw Shen Jia coming out of the yard, they all knelt on the ground with a bang: "Please, girl, take us in."

Shen Jia jumped away the moment they knelt down, "You guys get up first and follow me in to wash up and fill your stomach before talking about anything else."

Shen Jia really didn't understand why the ancients liked to kneel so much. Anyway, she didn't like it very much.

She asked Bai Kou to take them down to wash and eat. Half an hour later, the five people stood in front of Shen Jia with a new look.

They were all wearing the clothes that Bai Kou and the others wore on weekdays.

Shen Jia looked at the five women standing in front of him and felt deeply in his heart. They were even thinner than when they were in Half Moon Palace, their faces were sallow, and they were as thin as paper figures.

Shen Jia said calmly: "Tell me what's going on with you?"

The five women glanced at Shen Jia timidly, and then told their stories one by one.

They are all from the same town.

The tallest one is Yan Xiaohua. Her family runs a grocery store in the town, and their life is pretty good. Her biological mother died young, and her father married her stepmother. It is said that if a stepmother has a stepfather, this is vividly reflected in Yan Xiaohua.

After Yan Xiaohua returned from Banyue Palace, her stepmother first plundered all the jewelry she brought back, and even the fifty taels of silver notes that she had hidden were found and taken away by her.

Then, on the grounds that she had been kidnapped and her body was no longer clean, he sold her for five taels of silver to an old widower in the town who was in his fifties and had beaten four wives to death. Yan Xiaohua was definitely not willing to do so. She was captured and beaten several times. It happened that several other women came to find her. Seeing this, they joined her in beating the old widower and escaping.

The fairest one is called Zhao Cuilan. Zhao Cuilan's home is more than ten miles away from the town. She has three brothers. Her father died young and her mother died due to excessive grief after her disappearance.

Her family is very poor, so poor that they only have two adobe houses covered with thatch, and her three brothers are not yet married.

After Zhao Cuilan returned, she took out the fifty taels of silver and built five brick houses for her family. She also used the jewelry, cloth and other gifts given by Shen Jia as betrothal gifts to marry her three brothers.

But her three brothers were not only ungrateful, but also completely forgot about their sister's kindness to them after marrying their wives.

The eldest brother listened to the instigation of the person next to him and discussed with the other two brothers to give Zhao Cuilan to a sixty-year-old landowner in the town as a concubine. After Zhao Cuilan overheard what they said, her heart became cold and she ran away overnight. Go to town.

The most beautiful one is called Zhu Jinhua. Her home is about twenty miles away from the town. There are many brothers and sisters in the family, including two brothers, one sister, two brothers and one sister.

She had not been favored since she was a child. After her disappearance, her parents were sad for a few days and then forgot about her.

Zhu Jinhua knew that she was not favored, so she was more thoughtful. She just gave the visible cloth, jewelry, etc. to her parents and hid the banknotes herself.

Who knew that her second brother was a bad gambler and lost a lot of money gambling in the town. People from the gambling house came to ask for the account. Naturally, the family couldn't afford that much money, so the people from the gambling house wanted Zhu Jinhua and her Her sister paid the bill, but her parents did not object. At that moment, Zhu Jinhua's heart dropped to the bottom of her heart. After taking out the fifty taels of silver notes and giving them to the people in the gambling house, she also left home.

The youngest is Huang Meili. Huang Meili's family lives in the mountains. She went to the market with her parents and was abducted by the people from Half Moon Palace.

Her family only has a few adobe and thatched houses. Her parents are already very old. None of her five brothers are married. The oldest is over thirty years old. If this continues, her brothers will definitely be single.

Huang Meili couldn't bear to make her parents sad, nor could she bear to have her five brothers become singles, so she gave fifty taels of silver to her parents. Her parents went down the mountain and sold five women back to be wives for her brothers.
