Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 384 A wedding that has been sung for thousands of years (1)

"Oh." Yuan Bao replied vaguely, sharing more and more weight on Ni Yuze.

"Hehe..." Ni Yuze smiled lightly, and wrapped Yuanbao more tightly with his cloak, "Are you sleepy?"

Yuan Bao answered Ni Yuze with a big yawn.

Ni Yuze picked up Yuanbao, walked down the rock steadily with the help of two guards, and returned to the island owner's mansion.

Except for being busier and smiling less, everything that happened on New Year's Eve didn't seem to leave any traces on Ni Yuze. Occasionally, Yuan Bao would find Ni Yuze standing alone by the sea, on his favorite big rock, silent and happy. Far away, sometimes Yuan Bao would walk over and stand by his side, sometimes Yuan Bao would silently walk away as if he hadn't found it.

The hustle and bustle of Yujiagang will not be lonely because of Ni Yuze's inner pain alone. Yuan Bao and Ni Yuze are very grateful for this, but Yuan Bao knows that for Ni Yuze, the sky that Ni Yuze has propped up for her is After all, something is different.

More than ten days later, the fleet returned from the long voyage was rested and unloaded, and they set sail again to return to Ningnan Mansion, accompanied by Yuan Bao and Ni Yuze.

Another month later, the two arrived at the Hou's Mansion in Ningnan Prefecture City. No, it has now become the Duke's Mansion. There is no change inside, except for a plaque on the gate and the stone lion at the gate. Became compliant.

They went to Yu's house to worship again. The two worships were only more than three months apart, but Yuan Bao's mood changed a lot. It was not because of a year, but because she felt something called "" "Blood" is unknowingly blending into her body, with the sound of surging waves and the salty sea breeze, silently interpreting this surname that Yuan Bao didn't quite understand before, it is so profound that it is difficult to express...

Since the return of the fleet, the income from supernatural powers has soared, and Yuan Bao finally couldn't help sighing, "Going to sea is too profitable!"

Seriously, Ni Yuze's right to go to sea was suspended for five years. It was not until the return of the fleet that he completed the voyage trade again. There are some reservations, that is to say, some of Ni Yuze's unique maritime trade areas have not been set foot in five years, which has caused a shortage of many commodities, whether it is the other party or the dynasty.

As an excellent businessman, how could Ni Yuze let go of such a great business opportunity?The year before last, he had a shortage of funds due to a large amount of stocking and a surge in shipbuilding investment. It was only thanks to the strong support of Yuanbao that he survived the crisis. Pretty amazing.

But now, with the successful return to the voyage, Ni Yuze's investment has been returned more than ten times, so how can Yuan Bao not be surprised? !You know, the fleet income recorded in the ability is only [-]% of the fleet's total profit, which is the part obtained by Yuanbao's bookkeeping method.

"Well, what is sold now is only a part of the goods, and there will be more in the future." Ni Yuze didn't move his eyebrows, and his tone was calm. He knew his business well and felt nothing to be surprised about.

Ever since the fleet docked in Ningnan Mansion, Ni Yuze, who left the sea, has become that stranger again. Fortunately, his attitude towards Yuanbao has always been more affectionate than others, otherwise, Yuanbao would really be He didn't get used to it, even with his current appearance, Yuan Bao was also angry when he saw it, and often had the urge to slap him to prevent him from being pulled so much.

"Cut—" Yuan Bao smirked slightly, but the smile on his face was still big. It felt so good to get rich, "You don't have to give money to me, you can just give it to the investment treasure ship." With the increase in income, she is not so interested in gold and silver treasures now, "Otherwise, I will sell you the grain in the village directly." Su Chunsheng opened up so much wasteland, and Yujiagang needed more A large amount of food seems to be a perfect match now!

"That's good." Ni Yuze narrowed his eyes slightly. The farm under his name did not sell grain outside the year before last and last year. However, the population of Yujiagang has been increasing rapidly recently, and the speed of treasure ship manufacturing is accelerating. At the same time, the food pressure does exist, just like According to Yuan Bao's calculations, the number of people he will have to support in order to build treasure ships is probably hundreds of thousands. "However, I will arrange these things later."

The food is different from others. It is too obvious that the emperor will not respond. According to Ni Yuze's calculation, when the population of Yujiagang reaches about [-], the ship will be built and grain can be grown on the island. If it's too risky, he doesn't mind slowing down the speed of shipbuilding and planting some food earlier. In a word, everything is about safety.

"Okay, then you can discuss it with Chunsheng!" Yuan Bao leaned comfortably against the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes and rested.

Ni Yuze didn't make a sound, frowned and turned his gaze to the side. There are some people he doesn't want to think about, and some things he doesn't want to face, even if it's just one less time and one day later.

In mid-March, Yuan Bao and Ni Yuze returned to the capital and completed their five-month tour. When Yuan Bao jumped out of the carriage and threw himself into the arms of Su Chunsheng who came to pick them up, Ni Yuze left silently. Chunsheng and Yuanbao tacitly pretended not to see it.

"Why are you the only one who came to pick me up? What are they doing? Why haven't you written to me after I've been away for so long..." Yuan Bao asked one question after another, not really asking for Su Chunsheng's answer. In fact, Yuan Bao knew in his heart that Ni Yuze might have withheld all the correspondence between her and the Su family, and Ni Yuze would definitely use other means to keep sending news to the Su family to let them know that he was safe.

Arriving in the capital in the afternoon, after dinner, Yuan Bao explained in detail the experience and what he had seen and heard during the time he left, even the conversation with Ni Yuze when he was in Yujiagang for the New Year’s Eve was not behind , it was very late at night, Su Chunsheng looked at Yuan Bao quietly, and finally waited for the most important sentence - Yuan Bao said, "Chunsheng, come to propose marriage tomorrow!"

When they first met, the attitudes of Ni Yuze and Yuan Bao explained everything. No, during the days when Yuan Bao and Ni Yuze left together, Su Chunsheng never doubted Yuan Bao's feelings for him, but he still heard it with his own ears. Only then will there be the most real feelings.

"Okay!" Su Chunsheng stood up, and hugged Yuanbao tightly again, "I will as soon as possible, you just need to wait patiently." During the period from engagement to marriage, according to the custom, the two should not meet of.

How fast is as soon as possible?Su Chunsheng told Yuan Bao with practical actions that it only took twelve days from the door-to-door proposal to the wedding day!
Of course, the reason why this astonishing speed can be achieved is not only Su Chunsheng alone, but also - Ni Yuze!
From the moment the news of the marriage was announced, it was destined to be an extremely eye-catching wedding, because its groom was beyond everyone's expectations. In addition, the amount of its betrothal gift and dowry , It also makes it a well-deserved "one marriage through the ages" that has never been seen before or since!It was recorded in the annals of history, and I don't know how long it will be handed down.

Early the next morning, Shi Yuandao brought his two grandsons and three boys from the Su family to Yuanbao's county lord's mansion. It took less than an hour to complete the marriage with Song Chengye. The ceremony of "Nacai", "Ask your name" and "Naji" in one.

It is worth mentioning that Su Chunsheng took out the small ceremony, which is a jade pendant with the pattern of the zodiac. It is of average quality and the price is not too high, but it has an unusual meaning. orbital.

This is the year when the Su family moved to Qing'an County for the Chinese New Year. Yuan Bao gave Su Chunsheng a New Year's gift. It was designed by Yuan Bao himself and made by himself. It is also the first time in Su Chunsheng's life. The items that Yuan Bao, Su Chunsheng, and even the entire Su family have experienced together are the witnesses of the years!

Yuan Bao's gift in return was a golden hairpin that lacked the only bead, which was the one that the young Yuan Bao only grabbed the bead when he escaped. Later, Ni Yuze found it and was carefully collected by Su Chunsheng. Last year, when he went to Cangshan Mansion to take back Qi's dowry, Yuan Bao took it with him as evidence.

Although these two small engagement ceremonies are not expensive, they are things of special significance between the two people. They should be called "tokens of love" more accurately.

The two families are happily talking some unnutritious words in the county lord's mansion. The imperial decree has arrived!
It turned out that Ni Yuze wrote the booklet yesterday and informed the emperor of Yuanbao and Su Chunsheng's marriage, and asked the emperor to grant the marriage and seal Yuanbao.

Even if the emperor agrees, he came early this morning to announce the decree, conferring Yuanbao as the lord of Kangning County, the second rank. This is really a matter of face!

The second rank, this is already the highest rank among princesses in this dynasty, higher than many untitled princesses, and the title of "Kang Ning" also shows that the emperor at this time has sincerely regarded Yuanbao as a royal person , rather than "Huiqiao" who was born as a commoner and relied on excellent craftsmanship to get to the top.

The birth date of Yuanbao, which was supposed to be taken away by Shi Yuandao, was taken away by the emperor, because people in the royal family had to be married by the Qin Tianjian to combine the horoscope. This solved a big problem for Su Chunsheng. The Su family's foundation is very shallow. It can be said that there is none at all. Where did the family temple come from? Even the ancestral hall is far away in Sujia Village, Anbei Prefecture. It must be a waste of time to come and go.

The result of combining the horoscope is naturally auspicious, so after only one day, he barely made up the "three days" in the etiquette, and Shi Yuandao took these people to carry out the "Na Zheng" and "Na Zheng" in the six rituals. "Application date", that is, the day when the dowry gift is given and the marriage is finalized.

Ever since the emperor made a decree, the marriage between Yuan Bao and Su Chunsheng caused a storm in the entire capital. I don't know how many people were shocked by this unimaginable result. Everyone was shouting in their hearts, "How is this possible?" Is this Princess Kangning stupid, or is the always arrogant Duke crazy?!" Which normal woman would abandon the magnificent Duke to marry the little-known young master of the Su family? !Also, the Duke of the country didn't get angry and still helped him everywhere. What's going on? !
However, there were more happy people, and many girls who were infatuated with Ni Yuze fainted from joy.

Next is the crowded city of the county lord's mansion. Some came to inquire about the news, and some came to watch the fun, but more of them came to show their favor. Anyway, Yuan Bao can be regarded as "promoted", and he has not lost Ni Yuze's big backer Of course, there are also some people who sincerely came to congratulate Yuan Bao and help Yuan Bao.

It was against this lively background that the Su family's 120 eight-carry dowry was born, which once again caused a sensation in the entire capital.

Except for a pair of wild geese, tea cakes, fruit wine, etc., there are no fixed rules for the amount of dowry. The only unified point of view is that the value of dowry directly reflects the importance the husband's family attaches to the bride. When the current two princes and concubines, the betrothal gift was only 64. One can imagine how amazing the Su family's betrothal gift is.

When Yuan Bao, who was hiding in the inner courtyard, heard the news, the first thing she said was, "Is he crazy?" Then she urged people to bring over the dowry list, but she couldn't figure it out, Su Chunsheng Where did so many betrothal gifts come from?

Yuan Bao was both proud and moved when he saw the familiar and unfamiliar items on the list.

What I am proud of is that Su Chunsheng is really capable. In just a few years, he managed the Su family so well. There are more than 200 hectares of fertile land, more than [-] farms, more than ten large houses, and even Calligraphy and painting, solitary copies...all show Su Chunsheng's hard work, talent and heritage.

Those more than one hundred sets of jewellery, more than two hundred pieces of gold, silver and jade, hundreds of pieces of expensive clothing, 8 taels of cash, 8 taels of silver... also told Yuan Bao that whether it was the Su Family Courtyard in Sujia Village or the Zhongsu Residence in the capital, All the warehouses have been evacuated, and most of them are the clothes that Yuanbao bought for the members of the Su family over the years, as well as the private money they saved on weekdays. Well, Su Chunsheng even bought a lot of gold beans that were used by ingots to smash people, otherwise, the Su family couldn't get together the 88 taels of cash.

If it wasn't for furniture, decorations, etc., which would not belong to the scope of the dowry, Yuan Bao guessed that the Su family might not be able to sustain their daily needs. Even now, all the land deeds and house deeds of the Su family have also been sent over——The Su family There is nowhere to live.

Su Chunsheng did this not to show off the wealth of the Su family, but to fulfill his promise many years ago with practical actions: The family business that Yuan Bao bought for the Su family was Yuan Bao's dowry. The Su family remembered this love, Not only at the beginning and now, but also in the future will be remembered!
Of course, this is unreasonable, because there are also contributions and gains from the Su family, but these, the Su family regards them as real betrothal gifts.

How could Yuan Bao not be moved? !

No one expected that in their eyes, the small and inconspicuous Su family, which could only be called Ni Yuze and Yuan Bao's vassal, would have such wealth that could be called overwhelming. Unable to come up with such a generous dowry, the Su family is really hiding something!
But Shi Yuandao added the most romantic footnote to this slightly vulgar dowry gift, "To get this beautiful woman, the Su family will spend their whole house as an offer to show their sincerity!" Yes, this dowry gift was given to Yuan Bao, The Su family's tight together, gold-like affection!
Yuan Bao smiled and wiped away the tears on his face, and told people, "Come on, take the betrothal gift that has been beaten into small gold and silver pebbles, and send back two loads as a gift in return." The gold and silver used for betrothal gifts are usually beaten into very cute A pleasing style, for example, this time, Su Chunsheng hit the little golden pig the most, because ingots belong to pigs, so there are eight lifts, and there are also honeysuckle, gold and silver fish, etc., gold and silver are the simplest. style.

Yan Xi's eyes widened, "Princess, just two lifts?" According to the custom, at most half of the betrothal gift can be used in return to show that the natal family is not greedy for money.

"Yeah." Yuan Bao nodded heavily, "I'm greedy for money, and you didn't just find out today." Since the Su family gave her this kindness, she would accept it all, if it wasn't for the fear that the Su family would hold banquets and give rewards She couldn't even turn over the money, and she didn't even want to return these two gifts.

Facts have proved that Yuan Bao really thought too much, because whether it was various expenses including banquets, or rewards and gifts for everyone, Su Chunsheng waited for the bride to pass through the door on the day when the ceremony was completed, and Yuan Bao paid for it. Yes, as the euphemistically titled, "You have always taken care of Zhongfei", it really made Yuan Bao dumbfounded.

Although the Su family's betrothal gift was good, Yuan Bao's gift in return was a little off.

In terms of customs, women should have female celebrities made by the bride for her husband's family in return gifts. Embroidery is naturally the best. If it is not possible, even the simplest shoes are fine. Unfortunately, Yuanbao is really rare. No!
Thinking back, the young Yuan Bao led the Su family to open up a beautiful and rich new life with her proud female celebrity skills. Who in the Su family doesn't have her needlework? !
But I don’t know since when, Yuanbao’s silver has been earning more and more, and more and more servants have been used. Yuanbao spends more time on running the business, managing accounts, and drawing expensive design drawings and three-dimensional paintings for neon clothes , I don’t even remember how long it’s been since I sewed by hand.

"Oh..." Yuan Bao blushed deeply, complaining to Yan Xi, "Why didn't you remind me?" Logically speaking, with Su Chunsheng's carefulness, she shouldn't be embarrassed like this!

Yan Xi smirked slightly, "The Princess doesn't even think about it, what's the use of reminding the servants, it's been almost a year, and the Princess hasn't stayed at home in peace!" The attitude of resentment was obvious.

Yuan Bao realized later that it was Su Chunsheng who was giving her eye drops. It was nothing more than the fact that she and Ni Yuze had left the capital for too long a while ago, and Su Chunsheng lost his temper in this way carefully, um, It can be regarded as a unique kind of jealousy!
"Okay," Yuan Bao shook his head with a wry smile, "Go to Nishang, find the clothes I designed, and buy one for everyone in the family. It's a return gift!" Just stay at home and be a little girl. Now that I think about it, this is a wonderful thing!
