General's Mansion
As soon as Guo Mingyan returned to Beijing, she heard the shocking news. The emperor granted a woman the title of Princess of Hui'an County!
She was so angry that she almost spit out blood!
She could use her toes to figure out who the person who was named the Lord of Hui'an County was!
She was so angry!
That bitch's status is actually higher than mine!
That mean peasant girl is really nice
With her ability, she was able to seduce King Jin into completely trusting her and taking all the credit from her!
King Jin's hand was chopped off, which made her think about many things!
A woman who cut off King Jin's hand and still made King Jin trust her so much is really extraordinary!
She underestimated her position in King Jin's heart.
King Jin probably kept no news from her!
She has always been surprised that a peasant girl like her knows medical skills, but she also knows how to design weapons
It turned out to be plagiarized!
She was obviously the first to design the Twenty-Arrow Repeating Crossbow. It was only a small step away from success. She had a clue!
That bitch must have seen his design drawing from Master Qi, and got the inspiration first, modified the drawing of the twenty-arrow burst, and used it to design a sixty-arrow repeating crossbow!
Or maybe it wasn't designed by her at all, but by the forces behind her.
As soon as Guo Mingyan came back, she hurried to find her grandfather without even taking a sip of water.
"Grandpa, the emperor granted that peasant girl the title of Princess of Hui'an County! Why didn't you stop her?"
General Guo touched his beard and said, "Grandpa only found out after the imperial edict was sent out."
The emperor is unkind! Mingyan actually didn’t get any credit at all!
He mentioned something to the emperor. The emperor Ming Yan was half a royal daughter-in-law. She should do something for the country, so why should she be rewarded
He almost sprayed the emperor with a mouthful of old blood!
"Grandpa, King Jin must be completely confused by that peasant girl! King Jin..."
Guo Mingyan actually chopped off Nalan Jinnian's hand. This was probably a conspiracy deliberately laid out by Wen Nuan.
Also, she told Nalan Jinnian about the design of the Twenty-Year Continuous Crossbow she presented to Nalan Jinnian, and then she designed the enhanced version of the Twenty-Year Continuous Crossbow and the Sixty-Year Continuous Crossbow.
General Guo looked gloomy: "Is this serious?"
"Of course! I was the one who designed 99% of it first!"
"snort!"
A peasant girl is so brave, she actually dares to count the merits of their Guo family!
The old general thought of something and asked: "King Jin's hand was really cut off?"
Guo Mingyan's heart ached when she thought of this. She lowered her head and nodded heavily: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."
"seen it myself?"
So Guo Mingyan told the situation at that time.
General Guo frowned. He was silent for a long time and then said, "I'm going to the palace to see your aunt."
The Guo family only has one legitimate daughter, Mingyan, and the rest are concubines, so they cannot marry a disabled person.
A concubine becomes a princess? The emperor disagrees.
The royal ancestral precepts clearly stipulate that a prince or grandson with physical defects and no heirs is not eligible to succeed to the throne!
This marriage must be scrapped!
His granddaughter must be the queen.
Guo Mingyan looked at her grandfather's back and clenched her fists. Fortunately, she believed in her sixth sense and had already taken the lead in asking her grandfather to ask the emperor for marriage!
The decree has been issued and there is absolutely no possibility of changing it!
She has been taught as a future queen since she was a child. Even if King Jin loses his hand, it doesn't matter. As long as they have the support of the Guo family, she can still sit in that position!
This world will be shared by her and King Jin together!
―――
The Nuan family heard about the various speculations about the Lord of Hui'an County, and the people in the village also talked about it. The whole family laughed it off and did not go around saying that Sister Nuan was the Lord of Hui'an County.
I guess no one would believe it!
Maybe even call them crazy!
So they still live a normal life in the village.
The new house was finally completed today, it took a total of twenty-seven days.
Nuan Nuan paid each of the workers who built the house three taels of silver on a monthly basis, saying it was double wages at the end of the year.
The woman who came to help open up wasteland was also paid two taels of silver, which was also a double salary at the end of the year.
The Sanjin house was built so quickly because everyone worked early and late!
Now that the weather is freezing, I can see how hard they have worked.
Wen Jiarui's hands were all chapped, let alone theirs.
In addition, Wen Nuan also gave them generous New Year gifts.
Wen Jiarui went to town and ordered two pigs. Each person was given twenty pounds of pork. Then there were cured meats, fresh fruits and vegetables, cotton cloth for each person, fifty pounds of rice, ten pounds of white flour, and some candied fruits and vegetables for the New Year banquet. candy.
Youfu waved his hand at the pile of things: "I can't accept so many things! I've already charged several times the salary! How about accepting these things again!"
"Yes, I won't accept it either! You don't have to be so polite! The salary is said to be double at the end of the year, but don't bully me because I don't know how to count. Thirty fen a day is only 900 fen a month. Double it is one thousand and eighty. Hundreds of Wen! Why did you get three liang! That’s more than three times as much!”
…
Nuan Nuan explained that their wages were fifty cents a day and thirty-five cents a day for land reclamation.
Everyone was reluctant to accept the New Year's gift, but Wen Jiarui said that if he didn't accept it, he wouldn't be a brother! I won’t dare ask them for help next time if something happens!
Finally unable to resist, they accepted it.
Then Wen Nuan made an appointment with them to ask them to help build a workshop after the new year. You can ask some honest relatives and friends to help, but the wages will not be so high after the new year, and they will be calculated at market prices.
Everyone agreed.
Nuan Nuan paid such a high salary because of friendship. These people had helped their family a lot.
The second is because their character is trustworthy, and the work they do every day is almost the same as what others do in two days.
They deserve this double salary!
But not everyone would be paid such a high salary. She still understood the principle of rising rice and grudges.
Aunt Yongfu saw Mr. and Mrs. Youcai, Mr. and Mrs. Youfu, and others carrying a basket full of things, including meat, vegetables, and cloth. They also had a bag of white flour and a bag of rice in their hands, talking and laughing. Go home.
Her eyes were bulging. How much money did these things cost in total? "Is this the wages given by the Wen Jiarui family? If you don't have any money, you use these things instead?"
The blessed daughter-in-law rolled her eyes at the eighth mother-in-law: "No, this is just a new year's gift! Wage is not included, but double wages at the end of the year!"
The blessed daughter-in-law took out two taels of silver and said proudly: "Look! This is my wages for opening up wasteland!"
At that time, you looked down upon others and said everywhere that you had no wages!
Aunt Yongfu was dumbfounded, two taels of silver? Double wages
Add in the pile of annual gifts, how much is the salary? At least three taels!
The few people ignored her and went home happily.
Aunt Yongfu squatted on the ground, picking up pebbles and slowly counting them. She picked up a lot and it took her a long time to figure out how much she would earn per day!
Create a wasteland and get a hundred coins a day
Aunt Yongfu covered her heart, feeling a little unable to breathe!
People in the village soon knew about such wages and annual gifts.
Everyone regretted it and beat their chests!
At first, the villagers laughed that they were fools because they were blessed and wealthy!
If you work from dawn to dusk to build a house for others, are you getting paid twice
No matter how good the food is, it will be gone when you are full. Is it realistic to have enough money? You can buy anything!
Now everyone is regretting it!
Damn it, those annual gifts are more than the wages they paid to open up wasteland!
They still have three taels of silver for work, and another two taels for land reclamation. It’s so infuriating that people are so much more than others!
Everyone went to the village chief to argue why he didn't tell everyone that the wages were so high!
The village chief sprayed them in the face!
He has long said that Jiarui's character is indispensable for their wages!
No one came to help!
How dare you blame him!
Why do you want to find Wen Jiarui's theory
Everyone dare not think of Sister Nuan’s short legs!
I heard that the guy from Hejia Village in the next town was kicked to pieces by her! The houses have been demolished!
