The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 76

On September 26, the Clan Mansion and the Ministry of Rites dispatched officials, internal eunuchs, etc., together with Chu Xun and the Chu family's second steward and steward Momo, to Wangyun Village to read the decree for the canonization of Shi Chuying.

With Aunt Yue's guidance, the Shi family kept things as simple as possible and tried their best to present a standard etiquette for receiving the order. However, it is in a village after all, and you can't expect how standard the villagers' homes will be, it's just a rough idea.

Shi Chuying also changed into a formal dress and knelt down to listen to the decree. The officials of the Ministry of Rituals unfolded the imperial decree on the rhinoceros horn shaft, raised their breath, and after a formatted pianwuliixix and gorgeous rhetoric, Shi Chuying was sealed as a second-rank Fuguo Mrs. General.

Shi Chuying knelt on the mat in vain, listening to the ceremony officer's words, but her mind drifted away. She thought that this second-rank lady sounded tall, but compared to other people in the clan, she was a little Cough, that is incomparable.Most of them are super-grade, it doesn't matter what grade, if you have a grade, it is low.

Forget it, at any rate she married Chu Xutu to him, and his grade was just incidental.Besides, high grade doesn't mean you can win a fight...

Girl, you are listening to the order, what kind of nerves are you distracted, people have called you a few times, hurry up and accept the order!

Shi Chuying finally felt the cry in everyone's heart, came back to her senses, accepted the order upright and accepted the crown, thanking the emperor for her kindness.

The Shi family held a banquet in the yard to entertain the officials and others who announced the decree. Looking at the environment, they really disdain to stay in this village for a long time. to rest.There were county officials who ate, drank and entertained them.

The official of ceremonies has left, and the people of the Chu family still have important things to do.

Chu Xun had been here twice, so he was an acquaintance. The Shi family first greeted the group for dinner, and after a short rest, they discussed counting the dowry in the afternoon.

In other words, since she had so many people, there were many people eating with Shi Chuying. She felt a little distressed when she thought that she still had to support such people, so she arranged these people to work very bluntly: picking mountain goods , Collect mountain goods!

The news made villagers in several nearby villages come to Wangyun Village to deliver mountain goods in exchange for money; even nearby fishermen came to deliver some fish, shrimp and crab, and the fresh ones were flooded or dried out. Things are cheap as hell when they are in season locally, and Shi Chuying didn't spend much for it.

And after the autumn harvest, Shi Chuying bought most of the scattered food in Wangyun Village, because she heard that not only food in the capital was much more expensive than here, but everything was more expensive!She brought so many people there, she had to eat and drink every day, and food alone could make her poor.

Fortunately, she has sent two batches of medicine to Wanci recently, and she has some spare money on hand, so she should take advantage of the cheapness to prepare more, save as much as she can, right? !

Therefore, in the following time, Shi Chuying's dowry has increased by a lot, but Chu Xun has a headache.

Chu Xun looked dizzy at the dowry list in his hand. He was married, so he had seen his wife's dowry list, but seeing Shi Chuying at this moment made him feel bad!This, these are dowry? !

With an expression of disbelief, he passed the list to the second steward standing beside him. The second steward was very energetic when he saw it, but he was also dumbfounded after reading each of them, so he handed it to the steward again, so finally The three people looked at each other, and I looked at you, and no one spoke.

Wumingdao Elder God was there, drinking tea by himself, closing his eyes and meditating.

After all, Chu Xun is the serious master of the Chu family. After being shocked, he still tried his best to calm down and said: "Old relative, there are so many things on this list, it is really not easy to count them, and we don't even recognize the wild things. I don’t know what to do with this?”

Wuming Daoist opened his eyes, "What's so difficult about this? Our family doesn't recognize those silk and satin ones, so we counted them as usual!"

This refers to the betrothal gift. The things in it are scarlet makeup flower cloud satin, scarlet flash satin, scarlet plain satin, scarlet cloud silk, scarlet plain silk, red makeup flower skirt and jacket silk... I don’t know how many kinds there are in red. How could any of them recognize them, and they would accept them all as they were ordered!

Chu Xun was speechless, well, what he said was true.It's not someone else's fault that they don't recognize things, it can only be because of their short knowledge.Forget it, it's just some mountain things, and if you spend a few dollars, the subordinate officials in the county government are all people with good eyesight, and they will always get things done.

Chu Xun first sent his entourage to the county yamen. How dare the yamen offend the clan? Immediately, he sent the county magistrate with two subordinates to visit Wangyun Village in person. No hassle of shipping back and forth.

Chu Xun naturally had no objection after hearing this.It's just that when the county magistrate looked at the things in the backyard, he immediately called the village head cleverly, and several farmers in the village helped him start counting:
First the bulk:
2000 catties of wild millet (Yungu) with shell, divided into four grains;
Flour (Yungu flour) 1000 catties, divided into four grains;
100 catties of bamboo strips;
