The reborn beauty is pregnant again and again
Chapter 352 The Charming Boss Lady 39
Chu Xu's career in the imperial court was also going smoothly. In just five years, he had already risen to the rank of the Three Dukes, and was only one step away from the position of prime minister as predicted.
More and more people wanted to curry favor with him. Today they gave him gold and silver, tomorrow they gave him mansions and farms, and the day after tomorrow they gave him dancers and beautiful women. However, Chu Xu didn't care about these. He always just smiled and let Jiang Nanqiu handle it.
Jiang Nanqiu was extremely annoyed. It was fine for those people to send gold and silver, but what was the meaning of sending women? She really wanted to kill those officials who sent women on the spot.
This time, another official sent gifts to Chu Xu!
Moreover, he not only sent gold, silver and treasures, but also three beauties.
Jiang Nanqiu racked his brains, trying to get the three beauties to leave on their own, but this time it was different. The three beauties cried bitterly and were unwilling to leave.
Jiang Nanqiu understood their thoughts. They probably thought that as long as they could stay, they would be able to charm Chu Xu sooner or later. But what they didn't know was that it was impossible for them to see Chu Xu. Jiang Nanqiu had the final say in the Chu Mansion, and all the servants in the mansion obeyed Jiang Nanqiu's orders. They were afraid of angering her and being driven out!
After all, Jiang Nanqiu never punished his servants, the monthly interest was generous, and the food in the Chu Mansion was good. The money earned in the Chu Mansion in a year could not be earned in other official families in three to five years.
Jiang Nanqiu was at a loss as to what to do with their pestering, and finally agreed to let them live in the side room.
Jiang Nanqiu found it very funny to see him secretly heaving a sigh of relief.
The housekeeper sent the three people back to the side courtyard, locked the iron lock with a clang, and waited for the matchmaker to come tomorrow, and then he would send them away with a few taels of silver.
When Chu Xu returned to the mansion, Jiang Nanqiu placed a stack of account books in front of him and said, "Ah Xu, it's time to hand these over to the emperor. You are still one step away from that position. That step also depends on a certain opportunity, and my bureau's opportunity may be right now."
Chu Xu flipped through the account book and asked, "Is this account book for today?"
In the flickering lights, his smile was gentle and really beautiful. Jiang Nanqiu was reluctant to give such a good-looking man to anyone else.
Jiang Nanqiu's words were somewhat sour: "Of course there are more than that, there are three more beauties. They are in the side courtyard now, would you like to go and see them, husband?"
Chu Xu put down the account book and held her in his arms: "It's my fault. I'm sorry for making you upset. Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
Jiang Nanqiu smiled in his arms: "Okay, then I'll wait for good news from my husband."
......
In the palace.
At this time in the past, the little emperor and the court officials would all be yawning and preparing to adjourn the court, but today everyone was energetic and looked nervous.
There were dozens of boxes of different sizes in the hall. Chu Xu opened the smallest one, which was full of sorted accounts, banknotes, farm deeds and other items.
"Your Majesty, all the accounts over the years have been recorded and organized by my wife. They are all collected here."
All the court officials were sweating profusely. They all looked at Chu Xu with meaningful eyes.
Is he crazy? They have been officials for so many years, and they have never seen anyone as crazy as this!
The young emperor was delighted. He waved his hand and said, "Lord Chu is truly incorruptible and has helped me out of my most pressing need. All this gold, silver, farms and shops will be put into the national treasury."
Chu Xu thanked the emperor happily and said, "These three women are very beautiful, please accept them, Your Majesty."
The little emperor was still young, so he naturally didn't have any other thoughts, so he agreed without thinking too much: "Okay, okay, then I'll be your maid!"
After all, in the young emperor's view, since he had brought the person into the palace, he couldn't just call a matchmaker to sell her off like Madam Chu did, right? After all, the national treasury was now full, and there was no shortage of money to support two or three palace maids.
......
Two years later, the old minister Xin retired due to old age and illness. Chu Xu also took the position of prime minister as he wished. This year, he just turned 32, which was the prime of his life.
Jiang Nanqiu finally became the prime minister's wife. For a time, she became the envy of all the women in Beijing. Not only was her husband handsome, but he was also very chaste, with no women in his backyard.
Chu Xu served as prime minister for a total of fifteen years. The young emperor had also grown up. In recent years, the country has opened up the imperial examinations, and all kinds of talents have emerged. In order to suppress Chu Xu, the young emperor cultivated a lot of forces in the court.
One day, Jiang Nanqiu invited Chu Xu to Tianxialou for a drink. After a few drinks, she started talking nonsense again: "A Xu, you have been in a high position for so many years. It is better to retreat while the tide is flowing, so as to preserve your good reputation in this life! After all, the ancient sages said that knowing how to be content will not bring disgrace, and knowing when to stop will not bring danger..."
Chu Xu was shocked: "My wife, could it be that the old Taoist priest said something that my husband is doomed?"
Jiang Nanqiu shook the wine glass and said, "If my husband persists in his wrong ways, he will not only harm himself, but also us mother and son."
Chu Xu sighed heavily: "I understand now."
Chu Xu never liked drinking, but he got drunk that day.
In fact, he is not a person who is greedy for power, but he still has a lot of things to do.
However, he was also unwilling to put Jiang Nanqiu and his son in danger.
The next day, Chu Xu resigned from his post due to illness.
Chu Xu, who was free, began to worry about the marriages of his four children and the business of Tianxialou and Bafang Inn. While they were still young, Jiang Nanqiu and Chu Xu opened two more shops.
There are four children, so it is fair for each of them to have one in the future.
At Jiang Nanqiu's insistence, his three sons did not get married until they were 22 years old, and his only daughter married Chu Xu's former friend, the eldest son of Lord Murong.
......
Time flies and decades have passed.
Chu Xu is now seventy-three years old. Recently, he has often fallen into a coma.
The boy who had left the Chu Mansion a long time ago for fear of being exposed has recently started to appear again. Jiang Nanqiu looked at the boy's dejected look and knew what he was going to say.
She smiled faintly and said, "I know it in my heart, so don't say it."
When Chu Xu heard her talking, he suddenly opened his eyes: "Madam, who are you talking to?"
Jiang Nanqiu softened her voice: "Husband, I'm talking to the old immortal. Husband, have you forgotten? I'm a flower demon. After you leave, I will leave here too."
Chu Xu looked at her beautiful face, tears welled up in his eyes: "My dear, where are you going?"
Jiang Nanqiu lowered her eyes, almost unable to bear to look at him: "Husband, it's heaven."
Chu Xu didn't speak for a long time.
In fact, he always had a hunch that they knew each other in their previous life and would meet again in the next life. That feeling was indescribable, tangled and confusing.
"My lady, no matter what you are, no matter where you go, I will wait for you."
After saying that, he closed his eyes, and tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes, drop by drop, from warm to cold.
Jiang Nanqiu's eyes were also wet. She gently wiped his tears, changed the pillow, and finally, she took his hand and closed her eyes calmly.
