"King Zhan is too polite, how much will it cost to give us so many shops at once?"
Shen Dejian swallowed hard when he saw the house deeds and land deeds printed with the government's red stamp, and was a little frightened.
You know, the price of a store is different from the price of a house. Even in a small county like Nong'an County, an ordinary store costs one thousand eight hundred taels of silver. It cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the son-in-law gave them so many shops in one go. The sum of them is almost worth 50,000 to 60,000 taels of silver!
Come on, it's so scary!
He didn't know that the shops his son-in-law gave him were all the best shops in the area. Not only were they located in the most prime locations, but even the houses were the best. The value of the shops was at least twice as high as he had estimated. In other words, these shops alone are worth more than one hundred thousand taels of silver!
Shen Ruolan smiled and said, "I just want to set up a shop selling vermicelli and dried tofu in various places. Now that I have these shops, I don't have to look for houses everywhere, and sell them directly in my own shop, which saves trouble. It's time!"
Shen Dejian nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, hey, look, there's more here!"
Under the stack of house deeds and land deeds, there were several stacks of stamped notes. When I took them out, I found that they were stacks of bank notes of different face values.
Probably because they were afraid that it would be inconvenient for them to spend, these banknotes did not have much face value, the largest one was only one hundred taels, and the rest were in fifty taels, twenty taels, ten taels, and five taels.
This is also Chun Yuxuan's thoughtfulness, knowing that Shen Dejian and the others spend little on weekdays, he didn't give them a large amount of bank notes, lest they would be inconvenient to spend.
Shen Ruolan counted these bank notes. The large and small amount of bank notes add up to a total of 100,000 taels, plus the house and land deeds above, this box alone is worth more than 300,000 taels...
Both Shen Dejian and Mu Shi were very moved, King Zhan was so generous and caring, it seemed that he really put their daughter on top of his heart.
"Sister, take a look again, what are those boxes?" Ju'er was not interested in these banknotes, and asked curiously while staring at the other three boxes.
Shen Ruolan opened the second box, which contained four sets of cotton clothes and four pairs of cotton shoes.
It seems that they are prepared for parents, Zhuer and Juer. The clothes and cotton shoes are all made of the best Sichuan brocade. The neckline and sleeves are inlaid with dyed mink fur. They wear patterns suitable for their personal style and age, exquisite but unassuming, low-key but connotative. A set of such expensive clothes can be worth several hundred taels of silver, which is enough for an ordinary peasant family to spend for a lifetime. These few clothes and a few pairs of shoes are worth thousands of taels of silver, which can be regarded as a treasure. Generous!
The third box contains three sets of jewelry, it can be seen that it is for Mu Shi, Shen Ruolan and Ju'er.
Mu's set is a set of red gold jewelry inlaid with gemstones, including hair combs, gold flowers, step shakers, hairpins, hairpins, bracelets, necklaces, rings, earrings, everything that one expects to find, with exquisite workmanship, and the gemstones on it are crystal clear and priceless. This set of jewelry is worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Although Mrs. Mu was born as a daughter, she has never worn such fine jewelry. How can women not like jewelry? Seeing such exquisite things, Mu Shi was immediately fascinated. Holding the delicate jewelry pieces, he looked at them, admired them, and liked them very much...
The one for Ju’er is a set of pink pearl jewelry suitable for her age. There are not many pieces. There are only six kinds of pearl flowers, step shakes, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings, but all of them are made of high-quality pink pearls. , each master is about the size of a soybean grain, each is well-proportioned and plump, and the same size. Pink pearls are rare in the world. It is time-consuming, laborious and expensive to gather so many pink pearls into a set of jewelry. Although this set of jewelry There are not as many pieces as Mu's, but their value is not lower than that of Mu's, or even worse.
Ju'er liked it very much after seeing it, holding the jewelry box and couldn't put it down. This is the first time she has such a decent jewelry when she grows up!
What Shen Ruolan gave was a set of pure red jewelry, made of red gemstones of different materials such as southern red, red crystal, blood jade and coral. Yes, it was very festive, and Shen Ruolan also liked it very much.
The fourth box contained Shen Ruolan's bright red wedding dress and a pair of bright red white tents. The wedding dress was also made of Shu brocade, and on it were embroidered with golden thread to symbolize festive meanings of "Phoenix Wearing Peony" and "Pomegranate Bat." The embroidery is exquisite but not extravagant, and it won't be too eye-catching when you get married in the country.
The Baizi tent or the dowry that northern girls must bring when they get married are all embroidered by the bride herself, with a hundred dolls of different shapes embroidered on it, in order to have more children and blessings in the future, but Shen Ruolan does not know how to do it. Hong, Chunyu Yu knew this very well, so he asked someone to make the tent in advance, so that she could take it with her when she got married, so she wouldn't have to make it up by herself.
It can be said that Chunyuzhen has prepared everything for marriage, just waiting for her to marry...
Seeing how caring their son-in-law was, Shen Dejian and his wife were overjoyed. After accepting the dowry, they began to make arrangements for Shen Ruolan's dowry and prepare for her marriage.
Daughter's marriage is a big event, Shen Dejian and Mu's family plan to have a grand event, to marry off their daughter in a grand manner, and invite everyone they know to have a wedding wine, so that everyone can witness their daughter's happiness together.
In addition, in terms of buying dowry, although their financial resources cannot be compared with Chun Yuzhen, they also decided to do their best to give most of the family's things to their daughter as a dowry. After all, everything in the family was earned by Lan Er. It was only natural for her to marry as a dowry.
In Shen Ruolan's dowry list, there are the 60 mu of mountain land at home, the two workshops, the more than 30,000 taels of silver in Shen Ruolan's hands, and the banknotes and shops sent by King Zhan. Tang, and the rest are brought to Laner.
Although they also know that King Zhan is not short of their family's idea of dowry, but they just feel that they should bring more dowry to Lan'er. According to the thinking of the older generation, they all feel that their daughters should bring more dowry to marry. I have confidence in my heart.
After Shen Ruolan knew her parents' plan, she immediately killed their thoughts in the cradle. In her own words, "I am priceless, and I don't need any dowry to raise my value. No, he can happily marry me back!"
Unable to resist their daughter's insistence, in the end, Shen Dejian and his wife only left the 60 mu of mountain land to their daughter as a dowry, and the rest of the banknote shop etc. were left in Shen Dejian's home and became Shen Dejian's property!
Actually, Shen Ruolan didn't even want the 60-acre mountainous land if she was afraid that her parents would feel sorry for her. She didn't need her parents to spend money on her if she had something to do. She looks very rich, she doesn't need her to make money, the money of the two of them is enough for them to spend a few lifetimes...
The matter was settled in this way, and the Shen family started the mode of preparing for their daughter's wedding. Shen Dejian ran all over the village, ordered two pigs in the village, and made an appointment for two master chefs in the restaurant in the town, and was still in the dried fruit shop. I ordered a lot of melon seeds, peanuts and other dried fruits, and I kept them for the wedding day at home...
After two days of busy work, on the morning of the third day, a strange car stopped in front of Shen Ruolan's house.
At this time, Shen Ruolan was just about to go to the workshop when she saw a strange car parked in front of her house, so she stopped and looked over at the car.
The car door opened, and two people dressed as officials got out of the car. Shen Ruolan didn't recognize them, just wondering, those two people turned around again, and pulled out a dying woman from the car.
The woman's hair was disheveled, and she couldn't see her appearance clearly. She could only be seen as a slender woman who looked young. After being dragged down, she couldn't even stand firmly, and was dragged and dragged by those two people Get it in front of the gate of Shen Ruolan's house.
Shen Ruolan watched two big men treat a weak woman so brutally and cruelly, she couldn't help but frowned, feeling very resentful in her heart.
Just as he was about to ask questions, one of the two officials dropped the man in his hand, took a step forward, and cupped his hands at Shen Ruolan, "Ma'am, is this the Shen family?"
Shen Ruolan didn't know what they were going to do, so she didn't dare to answer easily, so she said, "What are you looking for from the Shen family?"
The man said, "This is General Chen's subordinate Zhang He. He was ordered by the General to visit His Royal Highness King Zhan and Miss Shen. By the way, he will hand over this lowly servant girl to His Royal Highness King Zhan and Miss Shen."
At this time, the woman kneeling on the ground raised her head with force, revealing a pale and haggard face under her disheveled hair.
When Shen Ruolan saw the woman's face, she was taken aback, and cried out, "Miss Hongmian? Is that you?"
Hong Mian looked at Shen Ruolan in embarrassment, and said weakly: "Miss Shen, Hong Mian is here to apologize..."
Hearing their conversation, Zhang He expected that Shen Ruolan in front of him was undoubtedly the person he was looking for, so he cupped his hands respectfully, "Miss Shen, my great general asked his subordinates to plead guilty to you on his behalf. He doesn't know Miss Shen and Zhan Wang's relationship, he was confused by this lowly maid, offended Miss Shen, and hoped that Miss Shen would be tolerant. The general apologized, and specially escorted this lowly maid to the girl. Whether to beat or kill depends on the girl, as long as the girl can Just let it out."
After finishing speaking, he took out the red cotton deed of sale from his sleeve, and presented it with both hands.
Shen Ruolan didn't accept the contract of sale, but said coldly, "Your general didn't apologize to me because I am me, but because someone else has a relationship with me, so he doesn't have to apologize to me either. , whoever made him willing to apologize, you can go to someone to express your apology, I still have something to do, let's go first."
The general apologized to her entirely because of Chun Yuxuan. She didn't know what the relationship between them was, and it was inconvenient to accept other people's apologies at will, so as not to cause trouble for him, so let them find him. , let him decide whether to accept the apology, she was not hurt anyway, he can decide whatever he wants!
After making up her mind, Shen Ruolan walked outside, and when she passed by Hong Mian, her skirt was suddenly grabbed by someone.
Shen Ruolan stopped and lowered her head, seeing that Hongmian was holding her skirt tightly, raised her head, and begged weakly, "Miss Shen...please...help me..."
After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes exhaustedly and lowered his head.
Her appearance is indeed quite pitiful, but Shen Ruolan doesn't have the kindness to help a woman who wants to be her girl, besides, who knows what that General Chen is thinking? She didn't want to get into this muddy water, so she pulled her skirt back abruptly, and said coldly, "I won't help you, but I won't make things worse either, all of this is your own fault, so you can take care of it yourself. "
After finishing speaking, he walked past her step by step.
Hearing the sound of footsteps that were fading away, Hong Mian closed her eyes in despair, her whole heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the valley, extremely desperate...
Her side collapsed and despaired, but Shen Ruomei's side was overjoyed with joy.
Because a great good thing happened to her, she was so happy that she couldn't find her way!
Things have to start this morning.
This morning, a well-dressed matchmaker suddenly came to the house. She claimed to be surnamed Wang and was an official matchmaker in Jizhou City. The matchmaker Wang came here to propose marriage to Shen Ruomei on behalf of Li Daguan, the richest man in Jizhou City.
Matchmaker Wang said that Mr. Li accidentally saw Ms. Shen on the street the day before yesterday, and he was very satisfied. He went back and discussed with his wife at home. Mrs. had been in the house for many years and had no children, so she also supported the senior official to take a concubine, so as to continue Li's life. The family's incense, so I specially ordered her to propose marriage with money.
When Shen Ruomei heard the words 'the richest man in Jizhou', she already agreed half or six in her heart, and then heard that the high official was a young son and his wife was barren, so she agreed half or six It became eight or nine points, and the remaining one or two points were not because she didn't want to, but because she hadn't seen whether Mr. Li was handsome or ugly, tall or short. Wang is a beautiful man like a god, she doesn't want to be compared to the dead Lanya, she hopes that the man she marries is also a handsome man, so that she can be compared to the dead Lanya's man.
No matter what you say, she must compare Si Lanya, and she must not lose to her!
Uncle Shen was not enthusiastic about Mr. Li's marriage proposal, he felt something was wrong.
My daughter is good-looking, but that is only limited to Gada in Shantuner. In Jizhou City, where there are so many beauties, there are many women who are more beautiful than Meier. Since Mr. Li is from Jizhou City The richest man in the world must be well-informed and read countless people, so how could he fall in love with their daughter all of a sudden
impossible
Aunt Shen is worried about another thing. It is a good thing for her daughter to marry a rich and powerful family, but she is no longer a virgin. What if she marries and is rejected by others? Since that official Li is the richest man in Jizhou, he must be a powerful person. If he despises Meier, their ordinary parents can't help her daughter at all
Therefore, this matter is wrong, instead of marrying the richest man as a concubine, it is better to find an honest and dutiful young man to marry, live a monogamous life under their noses, and live in peace and contentment
Shen Fucun and Shen Jincun were also not optimistic about this marriage, because they felt that there was no good thing in the world, and the richest man had never seen a woman before, so how could he fall in love with a country girl? Maybe there is something tricky here
So, they didn't agree with it either.
However, although everyone disagreed, when Matchmaker Wang took out the betrothal gift list that Mr. Li gave to their family, the whole family immediately did not object.
Li Daguan deserves to be the richest man in Jizhou City, and the dowry gift he gave was so rich that it dazzled people's eyes: a set of two-entry houses in the city, one thousand taels of silver, plus ten bolts of high-quality silk and satin of various colors, and a box of gold and jade jewelry. …
Shen Debao's family has been holding tight all their lives, and they have never seen so much money. They all say that money touches people's hearts. Seeing these houses, silver and jewelry, everyone's minds became active.
Uncle Shen: Carrots and cabbages have their own loves. Although Jizhou City is full of beauties, maybe this Li Daguan likes Mei Er, otherwise it would be impossible to marry her with such a large capital. My daughter has suffered so much before. It's a shame, it's so easy to meet someone who cares about her, why don't you let her go...
Aunt Shen: If you are not a virgin, there is a way. I heard that washing it with boiled pomegranate skin can make it as tight as a virgin. Then put the frozen pigeon blood in it when the bridal chamber, and the blood will flow when the intercourse If you come out, you can fool around. My daughter was raised by a rich man, and she is single-minded like marrying a rich man. Now that she finally has the opportunity, she should agree to it, so as not to complain in the future...
Shen Fucun, Shen Jincun: Since she is willing, then let her go. Asking her to marry a rich man is better than marrying a poor one. With Shen Ruomei's temperament, if she marries a rich man, she will I have to go back to my mother's house every day to do it. Instead of doing this, it's better to let her marry a rich man, so as to save the two of them from worrying...
Shen Ruomei already had a 90% or 90% liking for Mr. Li, but after Wang Matchmaker took out the betrothal gift list, her original 90% or 90% liking suddenly became 100%. Although she didn't have the nerve to agree to this marriage in front of Matchmaker Wang, but seeing her coy and shy look, she knew she was willing.
Seeing the family's change of attitude, Matchmaker Wang felt very contemptuous in her heart, but she didn't say it out of her mouth, and she still said some pleasant things, such as Shen Ruomei's happy life after she left the house, how could Uncle Shen and his wife borrow it? The light of my daughter, how happy I will be in my old age, etc.
This Ma Liubo is very good at talking, and after a lot of eloquence, everyone in Shen was elated, and without thinking too much, he agreed to the marriage!
Because it's a concubine's room, it's not easy to make a fuss. The two parties only agreed that the appointment will be made in three days, and the marriage will be welcomed in seven days. , Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen are the master's wife, and they don't have to do any work in the future, just stay at home and wait for someone to serve them!
After Matchmaker Wang left, the first thing Shen Ruomei did was to ask her father to send a message to her second uncle's family, asking them to come and attend her wedding. Although she was a concubine of the Li family, she married the richest man in Jizhou City. A concubine is also better than marrying a poor man as a wife. Besides, Si Lanya is also a concubine. There is nothing better than her, maybe not as good as her!
**
That night, when Shen Ruolan fell asleep, Chunyu Huang came again uninvited.
These days, he came to her room at regular times every day. Shen Ruolan was thinking about the cold weather, and she was afraid of being seen, so she told him not to come. She would marry after a month. Can't the two of them be together every day? Why run back and forth in the cold
However, he promised very well that he would come every night when the time came. In his words, he said, "I miss her, I can't sleep alone at home..."
In fact, Shen Ruolan can't fall asleep if he doesn't come, she's used to his presence, and now she doesn't like to let her sleep alone. Being alone in a cold blanket is nothing compared to being in his fiery embrace, making love to him. How about sleeping together while talking about love
As soon as Chunyu Huang came, he grabbed her foot and continued to apply medicine to her. The scab on her foot had fallen off, forming an ugly scar. Shen Ruolan planned to cure it with Lingquan water, but Chunyu Huang didn't know She had spiritual spring water, so she brought over the ointment to remove the scar every day and applied it to her herself.
At the beginning, Shen Ruolan was not used to him giving medicine to herself, and felt that it was not good for a big man to hug her feet and take medicine, but Chunyu Jue told her happily, "It's nothing bad, if you don't give it to me too." Have you ever taken medicine? '
Shen Ruolan blushed bursts of blushes, and couldn't help but think of the scene of helping him apply medicine during the operation, that 'big eggplant' that stood up all the time was really embarrassing!
