Wen Yingniang is not a good-tempered person, but now, she is really angry with the Liao family.
That Liao Qinghe is writing poetry and painting, not only shaping herself into a poor lover, but also belittling her all the time!
Even, this person wrote a poem to cherish the past of the two, saying that the peony in the past had become a thorn for some reason, and he missed the beauty of the past and touched it, and he was bruised and bruised by the thorns.
Heck thorns!
Originally, Wen Yingniang wanted to return to Minnan Prefecture after disposing of her property in Hexing Prefecture, but the Liao family made such a fuss...
If she left now, it would be as if she was driven away, and she was about to flee!
The entire Hexing Mansion felt that her future would be miserable.
Wen Yingniang couldn't hold her breath.
Moreover, she was also a little worried about how she would live her life when she went to southern Fujian.
Several of her brothers have already married, and those sisters-in-law didn't hate her before, but if she lived back in, she might be disliked by her, as well as her parents.
Although Wen Ming didn't say much, she could hear that his parents still wanted her to go back and get married, but if she got married, who could guarantee that she would get married
She is so old that she cannot give birth, and she is jealous of a woman who has been divorced. It is estimated that there are widowers with children who will marry her because of her generous dowry.
If she doesn't get married... She has such a bad reputation, maybe it will affect the marriages of several nieces.
"It's good to find a man who has nothing but a face. Anyway, I don't rely on other people's dowry to live!" Wen Yingniang said again, she planned to find someone who could handle it, so that even if she was dissatisfied at any time Now... The big deal is separation.
She has been suspended once, and she really doesn't care about this!
"Miss, Mrs. and Mrs. will definitely not agree." Wen Ming said immediately.
"I asked you to find it, so you can find it. It's better to find someone I can live with than marry someone who doesn't know what to do." Wen Yingniang said, she thinks Zhao Jinge's life is pretty good now It's just that a man like Jiang Zhen is really hard to find.
"Miss, do you really plan this?" Wen Ming asked again.
Wen Yingniang nodded.
Wen Ming suddenly said, "Miss, what do you think of me?"
Jiang Zhen guessed right, he really likes Wen Yingniang, who doesn't like such a beautiful lady
It's just that his and Wen Yingniang's identities are too different, no matter how the old man and his wife fancy him, it is impossible to marry Wen Yingniang to him, and he doesn't dare to think about it.
But now, he has a good chance.
He is the subordinate of the Wen family, but the Wen family does not have his contract of sale. While he has made a lot of money for the Wen family over the years, the Wen family has also given him a lot of money. Although his family property is not too much, two or three There are still 100,000 taels.
Maritime merchants have always been the most profitable.
Maybe it's still impossible for him to marry Wen Yingniang, but Wen Yingniang's brain is hot and she wants to recruit...
Wen Ming was sure to persuade Wen Yingniang to find him. He knew the temper of this young lady very well.
"You?" Wen Yingniang looked at Wen Ming in surprise, she really didn't expect Wen Ming to say that.
"Miss, if you choose me, it's better for the lady to explain." Wen Ming said.
"You should know that I can't give birth." Wen Yingniang said, she asked a doctor to recuperate herself. She has been taking medicine every day for several years, but she still can't give birth, and Wen Ming, he has no children yet.
"Miss, I hurt my body when I went to sea before, this... The doctor said it would be a hindrance to the children." Wen Ming said directly.
Wen Yingniang looked at Wen Ming with complex eyes: "You..."
"Miss doesn't really want to get married. We can cover up each other and make the Liao family look good." Wen Ming looked at Wen Yingniang calmly.
Wen Yingniang thought about it carefully, and suddenly found that Wen Ming was indeed a good candidate.
Although she can't handle this person, she is absolutely trustworthy, she knows the bottom line, and she knows that she can't give birth, and she won't have a child in the future to steal her property.
She had wondered before that this person was 30 years old and still not married, so it was because of this.
Wen Yingniang felt some sympathy for this person.
Hexing House has been very lively recently.
After the divorce of the Liao family's wife was evacuated, first Liao Qinghe wanted to get married, and then, Wen Yingniang, who was divorced, was going to get married. It wasn't marriage, it was recruiting!
When the news first came out, everyone sneered at it, thinking that Wen Yingniang couldn't get married, so she had no choice but to think of such a move to fight against the Liao family.
But soon, they found out that things were not quite what they thought.
This Wen Jia is really too generous.
I don't know how they got it, they actually bought a very, very famous garden in Hexing Mansion, Xinyuan.
Hexing Mansion once had a high-ranking official who had gone through three dynasties. After he resigned and returned to his hometown, he built Xinyuan. After that, his son was very good. One of the three gardens.
That family is gone now. For them, finding someone to manage Xinyuan is a huge expense. They want to sell Xinyuan, but the price of Xinyuan is too high. Said to sell it, but no one ever bought it.
But now, Wen Yingniang bought Xinyuan.
Wen Yingniang is so rich? !
Those who had sympathized with Wen Yingniang before were all shocked. They already knew that Wen Yingniang should be rich, but they never thought that she would be so rich.
And this is just the beginning.
Wen Yingniang's shops, which were originally closed, suddenly reopened. Not only that, but the shops also began to sell all kinds of exotic treasures from overseas.
The prices of those things were all very high, but they still attracted the prestigious people in Hexing Mansion to rush to buy them. There were even two families who almost fought over a desk clock.
For a while, in the entire Hexing Mansion, everyone was talking about the Wen family's shop.
Wen Yingniang came from Wen's family in southern Fujian, and Wen's family in southern Fujian was a maritime businessman. Many people knew about this, but they didn't feel that much before, until this moment, they suddenly realized that they really underestimated Smell home.
Of course, the Wen family did not only do these two things. The Wen family also bought dowry gifts and dowries with great fanfare. Everything was the best.
There are not many people in Hexing House who have such a big deal!
Although some people satirized Wen Yingniang because she couldn't find anyone to marry, so she could only recruit children, but when they said that, the jealousy in their eyes couldn't be hidden.
Then Liao Qinghe is also stupid, such a Jin Bodhisattva actually swept him out of the house!
The Wen family was instantly incomparably beautiful, but the Liao family was the exact opposite.
Father Liao secretly made some calligraphy and painting, and exchanged a few hundred taels of silver. Finally, the family was maintained and he had the money to buy a betrothal gift.
However, their dowry is compared with the Wen family...
"Poison woman, she really is a poison woman!" Father Liao couldn't help scolding, that Wen Yingniang was so rich, but she hid it and didn't say it before, she was definitely not pure in her mind!
"She's really feisty and has no sense of shame." Mother Liao couldn't help but say, a woman who was divorced and did not find a nunnery to stay in a nunnery to eat fast food and recite Buddha, she even recruited people with great fanfare, she didn't know what it was!
"What kind of good man can a woman like this find? I'm thinking, she can only find a bad guy." Father Liao said again.
Liao's father and Liao's mother kept criticizing Wen Yingniang and hated Wen Yingniang, but Liao Qinghe was a little dazed.
He thought that Wen Yingniang would be very sad when he knew that he was going to get married, and would come to him, but Wen Yingniang didn't come to him at all and didn't say anything, and even got married.
Why is she getting married? How could she be so heartless? Or... she actually wanted to get rid of him
Liao Qinghe couldn't accept this situation, he just felt that Wen Yingniang was too indifferent.
Thinking that Wen Yingniang was going to be with someone else, he was still heartbroken.
The Liao family was talking about Wen Yingniang, but Lu Luan hugged her belly, but already regretted it.
Lu Luan was born very badly. It was an unexpected joy for her to be able to climb Liao Qingyun, and she was reluctant to let go.
But Liao Qing and the tigress-like lady scared her again. She was afraid that Wen Yingniang would kill her after knowing her existence.
That being the case, of course, she exhausted all her means and tried her best to seduce Liao Qinghe.
When Liao Qinghe wrote the divorce letter, God knew how happy she was, but in a blink of an eye, the situation turned sharply...
If she had known that all the money of the Liao family belonged to Wen Yingniang, she would never have found Liao Qinghe.
The Liao family was depressed when someone came: "Master and madam, the shopkeepers outside are not willing to take credit." The Liao family had to buy a lot of things for a wedding, so they asked the servants to buy it. As for the money, They want credit first.
Before Wen Yingniang was married, they always did this.
However, this time, all the shopkeepers refused to give them credit. Even those who sold chicken, duck, and fish also said that they had to pay a deposit before they were willing to prepare the goods for them, and then they would deliver them on the day of the wedding.
Because... Now there are rumors outside that the Liao family is already poor and they are in a hurry to get married, just waiting for the dowry from the bride's family to make up for it.
However, the dowry was the woman's private money. Before that, Wen Yingniang had money and was willing to subsidize it. This time, the family who was engaged to Liao Qinghe was from a very ordinary family.
If the woman is holding her dowry and is unwilling to subsidize the Liao family, what will they do? Where to go to collect money
"They, they..." Father Liao was in a hurry, those people really looked down on others! Waiting for Qinghe High School, do their Liao family still lack so much money
"Master, what should I do now?" the servant who went shopping asked again.
Father Liao thought about it, and finally he could only take out the calligraphy and painting and let him pawn it.
And the servant took the calligraphy and painting, and reminded again: "Master, in a few days, it will be time to issue the monthly report..."
Father Liao's expression changed slightly, and then he said, "I know!"
With so many servants in the Liao family, once a month is issued, one or two hundred taels of silver are gone...
Liao's father used to have thousands of taels of antiques, and he didn't feel bad to buy them, but now, he can't even get a few hundred taels of silver.
Liao Qinghe didn't pay attention to this, he went out the door in a trance.
Then, before he took a few steps, a smeared maid suddenly slammed into his arms...
The Liao family was surprised that Wen Yingniang was about to get married, and Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge were also surprised.
After returning from Hexi Village, Wen Yingniang moved out from Zhao's house - Wen Ming brought a lot of people to Hexing Mansion, and with those people protecting her, Wen Yingniang didn't have to worry about being in danger at all.
"Wen Yingniang is getting married?" Zhao Jinge is not someone who can make friends with people. After Wen Yingniang moved out, she never went to Wen Yingniang again. I was surprised when I heard about it suddenly. .
"Well, she wants to marry Wen Ming." Jiang Zhendao, he knows a little more than Zhao Jinge, after all, he has met Wen Ming when he is outside these days.
This smell is really not simple.
That Xinyuan, others thought it was Wen Yingniang bought it, but he actually bought it.
After he bought Xinyuan, he let people pack a boat of overseas rare treasures, and then took some of them to visit some big figures in Hexing Mansion.
Even the prefect of Hexing Mansion who didn't see him and Zheng Yi at the beginning, Wen Ming saw it.
He ran around like that, and the wind direction of the entire Hexing Mansion changed again.
After that, he also made great fanfare to prepare a dowry.
He said that this Wen Ming must like Wen Yingniang, but no, the fox's tail is exposed.
It is said that Wen Yingniang thought that Wen Ming agreed to marry only to let her vent her anger.
Jiang Zhen was thinking about Wen Ming's affairs when someone came to report from outside, saying that Wen Ming was here.
Jiang Zhen immediately walked out.
After saying hello, Jiang Zhen asked, "Why is the steward Wen here?"
"Mr. Jiang, I have already told the owner that you are going to buy a boat. The owner will come to Hexing Mansion soon. There are just a few new boats, so I will bring them with me. You can go and have a look at that time." Wen Ming said.
Wen's family actually brought the boat to Hexing Mansion? Jiang Zhen was overjoyed, and immediately said: "As long as the boat is good, I will take it all." The small boat is reserved for Jin Zhen's escort, and the big boat will be used in the future.
After Wen Ming talked with Jiang Zhen before, he already knew what kind of boat Jiang Zhen wanted. He was sure that the boat that the Wen family brought this time was absolutely in line with Jiang Zhen's wishes.
"Master Jiang, I'm here this time, and I have one more thing to ask for."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Zhen asked curiously.
"I want to buy some Qingfeng wine to use when getting married." Wen Ming said.
Use Qingfeng wine when getting married? That's a big deal!
You must know that although some Qingfeng wines have been circulating in the market during this period, the selling price can definitely scare away many people.
"Of course, if Mr. Jiang can sell the land cheaper, it would be even better." Wen Ming added: "I have a batch of overseas wines, the quality is very good, and they can be supplied to Qingfenglou."
"Okay." Jiang Zhen responded directly, and then asked: "Wen Guanshi, have you thought about the future?"
Wen Ming was stunned.
"After you and Wen Yingniang got married, do you still plan to work as a steward at Wen's house?" Jiang Zhen looked at Wen Ming: "You don't want to take a fleet by yourself to venture out? Why don't we cooperate?"
Wen Ming's heart moved.
He is not without ambition, and he once thought of starting his own business, but when he thinks about it again, he feels that it is meaningless to establish a business on his own.
Wen's family treats him kindly enough, his family is loyal to Wen's family, he is still alone, no matter how much money he makes, it's useless, and now...
Wen Ming thought about it, and finally shook his head: "Master Jiang, I don't mean that."
Although the Liao family's marriage was already decided, it was not done for a while. Although they wanted to marry Liao Qinghe's daughter-in-law back early, the family was reluctant to marry their daughter hastily.
They have to buy a dowry, to prepare for the marriage, it always takes some time.
However, the Liao family's marriage was not organized, but Wen Yingniang's marriage was prepared in a very short time.
Wen's family also came to Hexing Mansion.
When Wen Ming came over, only one large ship came, which was not noticeable, but when the Wen family came over, a huge fleet came.
Jiang Zhen and Zheng Yi had hired sea ships before, but the sea ships they hired were incomparable with the Wen family in terms of quantity and quality.
For a time, the boats of the Wen family were parked on the dock of Hexing Mansion.
The people in Hexing Mansion were shocked again.
Wen's family came here this time, it was Wen Yingniang's parents and eldest brother.
The Wen family brought the boat they wanted. On this day, Jiang Zhen took Zhao Jinge to the pier to see the boat.
Jiang Zhen has been in contact with many ships, and he already knows how to see whether a ship is good or bad, and these ships of the Wen family are undoubtedly good ships.
Jiang Zhen bought all the boats without hesitation, and even ordered more boats.
He decided to exchange all the money in his hand for a boat.
The Wen family knew from the letter sent by Wen Ming that Jiang Zhen wanted to buy a boat, but they didn't expect Jiang Zhen to buy so much.
Wen Yingniang's eldest brother, the eldest young master of the Wen family immediately said, "It's not easy to build a ship. Some ships can even take several years to build. My Wen family doesn't have any extra ships for you at the moment. You have to wait."
"No problem." Jiang Zhen nodded in agreement, he was not in a hurry, he could take his time.
Wen Yingniang's marriage was done very decently.
Although it was a recruit, the marriage was actually the same as usual. It was Wen Ming who came forward to marry Wen Yingniang, but Wen Ming set out from elsewhere, went to Xinyuan to marry Wen Yingniang, and walked around Xinyuan. Then back to Xinyuan.
Because the Wen family came here, basically all the wealthy people in Hexing House came to participate in the marriage, even many officials came.
The two, government and business, are often inseparable.
Zheng Yi also came to attend Wen Yingniang's wedding and sat with Jiang Zhen.
He was obviously in a good mood. When he saw Jiang Zhen, he immediately said, "Jiang Zhen, the Changhe Salt Field is ready."
Zheng Yi is very busy these days. He is busy preparing for the new salt farm, which is Zhao Mingzhu's birthday banquet. He didn't go to participate, but now, the new salt farm is finally ready: "Also, the seaside you want, I will I have also found it for you, the place is definitely big enough."
When the people of Hexing House were watching the liveliness of the Liao family, secretly, a lot of things happened.
Many officials were dismissed, many salt merchants had their homes searched, and many, many people died during this period in Hexing Mansion and Wuzhong Mansion.
However, these things are kept secret by the big family, while ordinary people don't know it at all.
Fortunately, now all this dust has settled.
Jiang Zhen's heart beat faster, and the ambition in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
