I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

Mrs. Zhou Er's words were relatively tactful. It wasn't that Chen Yuan would have difficulty giving birth in the future, but that she would never be able to get pregnant again.

When Chen Yuan fell into the water, her abdomen was already cold, which made it difficult for her to get pregnant. After she finally got pregnant, she had an unexpected miscarriage before she could find out. And as she fell into the water, her body was in bad shape.

After listening to Mrs. Zhou Er's story, Shen Rong was so surprised that she was speechless for a long time.

There were rumors about Changsheng in Beijing some time ago, and she was sure that it was Chen Yuan who did it.

She had thought about how to teach Chen Yuan a lesson without anyone knowing, but her strength did not allow it, so she could only suppress her resentment.

But unexpectedly, before she could do anything, Chen Yuan crippled himself.

I have to say it's quite gratifying.

Mrs. Zhou Er saw Shen Rong's surprised expression and said calmly, "Mrs. Gu has always loved to show off. In recent years, whenever someone invites her to a poetry gathering, she always shows off, which often causes dissatisfaction among the girls."

Originally, these poetry gatherings were opportunities for unmarried boys and girls to become famous. Talented men would be easily appreciated, and talented women could increase their status and marry into a good family. However, Chen Yuan, a married woman, often stole the show at poetry gatherings.

For this reason, countless unmarried girls tore their handkerchiefs.

Thinking of Chen Yuan's background, Shen Rong was surprised and said, "I remember that she had never been to school before. How could she write so many poems?"

Mrs. Zhou Er thought for a moment and said, "It is said that he learned it from the third place winner later.

What does it matter how good you are at poetry? If you have a bad character, it's all in vain.

During the last Chaohua Festival, she said in public that your son was a fool..."

At this point, Mrs. Zhou Er covered her mouth and smiled, "Then when your girl started talking, you didn't see how those people looked at her."

Mrs. Zhou Er was not on that floor at the time. She heard about it from her good sister afterwards. Since she knew both Shen Rong and her husband, she remembered it.

When Shen Rong thought of that scene, she couldn't help but laugh.

She didn't believe that Chen Yuan learned to compose poetry from Gu Zhaoming. Chen Yuan was a soul from another world, so it was normal for him to recite some poems from that world, right?

Anyway, Shen Rong absolutely did not believe that Chen Yuan could become a talented woman who could write poetry in just a few years.

However, there is no need to mention this to Mrs. Zhou Er. If she says so, it will inevitably make people feel that she is jealous.

"What he said is not wrong. If the child's father hadn't been well, I'm afraid..." I'm afraid I would be looked down upon even more people.

Although Shen Rong did not say the last sentence explicitly, both of them knew it.

Mrs. Zhou Erfu changed the subject again, "Have you and your husband decided what to do in the future? It's not good to leave the title hanging like this."

Shen Rong sighed, "We have a saying in the countryside that the bigger your ability, the bigger your job.

I'm not afraid of being laughed at by my sister. My husband and I are both rough people, and we don't have any special skills. It's a great blessing to be able to settle down in this capital and live in such a big house. How dare we ask for anything else?"

If it weren't for Mrs. Zhou Er's message, the couple would have held out some hope for the title.

But now, with the emperor's words, the two of them could only live every day well. As for making meritorious contributions, such a good thing, they had nothing. How could they compete with those powerful families in the capital?

It is better to let it go early and live a good life as a family, which is better than anything else.

Mrs. Zhou Er didn't expect Shen Rong to let it go so easily. For a moment, she was extremely impressed by her.

If it were any other woman, she would probably keep urging her man to make progress.

"But a grown man has to do something, right? He can't rely on you for support." When Mrs. Zhou Er said this, she was wondering in her heart whether she could squeeze someone in her husband's place.

If it were in the past, Yang Qianyun would not care about this matter!

But now that they run a rouge shop together, they can earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month.

Yang Qianyun couldn't deny this favor.

Shen Rong was relieved, "Now this shop is making money, and there are few masters in the mansion, so it doesn't cost much in a year.

Besides, he is the one who takes care of our mansion and the lands in the farm.

He had been busy with farm affairs before, and he also planted a lot of watermelons.

After some time, when the melons are ripe, I will send some to your house. If you want to eat more, you can ask someone to go to the fresh food shop in the west of the city to get them."

Madam Zhou Er was delighted. "Your man can grow watermelons? That's incredible. Watermelons are so precious. The palace sends some down every year. They can't be sold outside!"

When Shen Rong heard that watermelons were not available outside, she became more confident in selling watermelons. "He used to grow medicinal herbs in the village, so he has some experience in taking care of these things.

At the beginning of spring, I bought some melon seeds and tried to plant them. I didn’t expect that he would grow them.”

Mrs. Zhou Er felt her mouth water when she thought of the watermelons she ate last year. "It seems like you have a lot of them. You even sell some of them."

Shen Rong did not deny it. "You know, my family is small, so if I'm sending some to you, I can only send some to you. I can't consume much, so I can only sell some to others."

"Okay! When your fresh food shop opens, I will definitely bring people to support it." Mrs. Zhou Er said with a smile.

Shen Rong smiled and thanked him. The peaches, watermelons, apricots, and plums that ripened in the summer had all grown, and they would be ready for picking in a month or two, so she gave Mrs. Zhou Er a heads-up in advance.

.........

Gu family courtyard.

Since Gu Zhaoming and his wife failed to buy half of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, they bought a two-story house on the east side of the city.

Chen Yuan was lying on the bed with a pale face, and a little maid doing needlework was standing guard at the door.

The house is very quiet.

Chen Yuan looked at the goose yellow tent ceiling, and what happened at the Wu family that day came to her mind again.

Under the quilt, her hand gently stroked her empty belly, feeling regretful and hateful.

She regretted that she shouldn't have been so prominent in public and thought that Miss Wu was so cruel and ruthless.

That day, she had obviously just sprained her ankle accidentally, and happened to meet the young master of the Wang family who helped her up, but Miss Wu made such a big fuss about it.

In the end, she gave birth to a child, and Gu Zhaoming got a concubine. It was really unfair!

When Chen Yuan thought about it, he just felt hatred in his heart that was hard to get rid of.

Now that the child is gone, Gu Zhaoming has never treated her well.

And there is Liu, who is always sarcastic and mocking.

Chen Yuan felt that he couldn't stay in Gu's house for even a moment longer.

"Xiao Li, go to my mother's house and tell my mother that I want to go home." Chen Yuan instructed the maid guarding the door.

Upon hearing this, the little maid immediately put down her needlework and replied, "I will go right away."

.........

Two days later, Shen Rong and Changsheng went to the yard on the southern outskirts of the city early in the morning to dry the grain.

The cellar in the house was finally dug.

The cave Changsheng dug was quite large, as big as an entire room, and could hold several thousand kilograms of grain.

Shen Rong came every two days to dig the soil from the cellar and stored it all in the space, which reduced a lot of burden for Changsheng.

Although the cellar was large, Shen Rong only put the grains that needed to be dried in it, and when the grains were dried, she would come over to replace them with new ones.

When the two men left the yard on the outskirts of the city in the afternoon, there was an ox cart carrying goods behind them.

When they went back this time, Changsheng rented an ox cart and loaded a cart full of dried rice, wheat and vegetables to bring back home.

Nowadays, rice and flour in Beijing are becoming more and more expensive, so Shen Rong simply took some out and told others that she bought them outside.

Since it was brought back from outside by car, it did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

But the servants who were pounding rice and grinding flour couldn't help but wonder why they didn't buy ready-ground flour and pounded rice?

However, as soon as this question popped up in their minds, the servants all had the answer.

Why else?

It’s cheaper to buy millet and wheat than rice and flour!

Once this reason came out, everyone convinced themselves.

In order to save money, the master directly bought millet and wheat. It seems that the situation in the mansion is not good!

Thinking of this, the servants in the mansion worked even more diligently, hoping that the master would appreciate their hard work and not let them go just to save money.

After entering April, it finally rained. It rained for several times in a row, alleviating the drought in the capital, but it did affect the crops planted in the spring.

In order to have enough food in the fall, many farmers planted some beans.

Zhuangzi of Pingyanghou Mansion is no exception.

It is a drought now and many farms near the capital are for sale. Gong Shaoshan took this opportunity to pick a farm with 600 acres of fertile land.

It cost twelve thousand taels of silver.

There were still 5,000 taels of silver left from the purchase of the shop. Shen Rong gave more than 8,000 taels of silver to housekeeper Gong, and asked Changsheng to go with her to see the farm and then go to the government to transfer the ownership.

Twelve thousand taels of silver for a farm is a bit expensive compared to the small farm of Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

However, the farm was close to the capital, and it not only had 600 acres of fertile land, but also four or five earthen hills and two stone hills.

The farm was said to have 600 mu of fertile land, and it was indeed very large.

When Changsheng saw it, he immediately thought of his planting business.

Those things in the space cannot be taken out unless some are planted outside.

Now, if we have a piece of mountain, can't we grow some fruit?

The original farm in the mansion was still a little small, and there was very little space to grow fruit trees.

If you have this Zhuangzi, no one will doubt you anymore.

Early that morning, Changsheng took Shen Rong to see the newly purchased farm.

This time it was the coachman who drove the carriage.

Changsheng had learned how to ride a horse at some point, and he rode his horse beside the carriage where Shen Rong was sitting.

Shen Rong lifted the curtain and looked at Changsheng sitting on the tall horse, feeling deeply moved for a moment.

Who would have thought that the guy who used to only play in the mud with little kids would become so powerful now.

Ever since Changsheng started practicing martial arts, his entire temperament has changed dramatically.

Although he was tall before, he always walked with a bit of stiffness and timidity, and his back was not as straight as it is now.

But ever since he started practicing martial arts, his posture has become more upright, his shoulders and back have relaxed, and he has become more relaxed and free.

The fool Changsheng in her memory was getting farther and farther away from her.

Shen Rong looked at Changsheng, and for a moment she felt that the person in front of her was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Changsheng saw his wife looking at him, so he drove the horse closer to the carriage and said, "Are you tired of sitting? Do you want to stop and rest?"

Shen Rong shook her head and looked at Changsheng enviously, "When did you learn to ride a horse? Why haven't I seen you learn it?"

Changsheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a slightly ostentatious smile, "I learned it in Zhuangzi. If you want, I will teach you when you have time?"

Shen Rong quickly agreed, "Then don't forget it."
