son as wife

Yan Jingshu smiled and raised her hand, signaling that they don't need to be too polite, and then said to Jiang Chenghan: "The people sent by Mrs. Jiang can't be neglected. How about I ask Zheng Er to take them back in a carriage? Zheng Er is one of my dowry servants." Man, he used to be in charge of the chariots and horses in the stable at home."

"That's fine, it's up to you." Now that the marriage is over, and there are servants brought by Yan Jingshu, there is no need to bother the people in the general's mansion anymore. Jiang Chenghan naturally has no objection to Yan Jingshu's arrangement.

Yan Jingshu then turned her head to look at a tall, thin and dark middle-aged man in a brown short jacket, and said, "Go to the carriage and take Mama Qiao and the others back to the general's residence in person. Be careful on the way, and you must deliver them properly."

The middle-aged man, namely Zheng Er, immediately saluted and said: "Yes, I have recorded it." Then he turned around and left the main room, and went to the carriage.

Mother Qiao thanked Jiang Chenghan and Yan Jingshu a thousand times, and then went back to the house where they lived to pack their things.

The outsiders had left, and only his own people were left. Jiang Chenghan pointed out to Yan Jingshu the two boys he had bought. They were both about seventeen or eighteen years old. The taller one was Fang Ping, and the fatter one was Lin Dong. , It seems that they are all honest people.

As usual, Yan Jingshu also gave each of them a red envelope, and then introduced her dowry to Jiang Chenghan.

In addition to Zheng Er who took the errand and left, there were two maidservants who served her personally, one named Wenjin and the other Wenxiu, who were originally the two most skilled in the embroidery room of the Duke's Mansion.

Because Yan Jingshu didn't learn how to work as a female worker, Mrs. Yan specially selected these two people for her to make clothes, mend and cut them in the future, and save the need to find outside tailors, which is inconvenient and worry-free.

In addition to these two little maids, there is also a middle-aged woman in her forties, Zheng Shi, and a 20-year-old young man, Zheng Hu.

Mrs. Zheng has good cooking skills. Mrs. Yan thought that Yan Jingshu might not be used to the local food when she arrived in Ningcheng in the future, so she chose her out. She also saw that her husband was good at raising horses and driving carts, and her son Zheng Hu was also smart and capable. It was just right to run errands for Yan Jingshu in the future, so he gave the whole family to Yan Jingshu.

The five dowry servants, compared with the married sons of the Duke's Mansion in the past, can be said to be shabby.But the Jiang family has a small population, so they don't need too many servants, and Yan Jingshu is still thinking about the people Jiang Chenghan bought to serve him when he was in Ningcheng in his previous life, and he wants to get these people back, so he persuades him After seeing Mrs. Yan, he didn't arrange too much dowry for him.

After identifying the people, Yan Jingshu asked these people to retreat and go to their own business, while he and Jiang Chenghan returned to the new house.

Then Yan Jingshu took out the huanghuali box containing her dowry list and other books, opened it, took out the contents and put them in front of Jiang Chenghan, and said: "These are my dowry, do you want to have a look?"

Jiang Chenghan said with a smile: "Your things, you just keep them, don't show them to me."

Yan Jingshu nodded, but said: "If you don't read it, then I'll read it to you. Well, I won't talk about the trivial things like clothes, fabrics, jewelry, etc. Back then, there were 600 taels in the betrothal gift you gave For the bride price, my grandmother added all the money into my silver box, and finally made up the whole, a total of 3 taels. In addition, there are two houses in Beijing, one with two entrances, and the other with five entrances. Well, the one hundred and eight pieces of huanghuali and rosewood furniture on the dowry list, as well as some large and heavy decorations, are now placed in this five-entry house. Grandma said, if we can return to Beijing in the future, we will live in It is in that five-entry house.

In addition, there are five shops on Zhuque Street and Jixiang Street, one hot spring village at the foot of Fenghuang Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing, and six villages in Beijiao, Yongcheng, and Moxian. [-] mu, more than [-] mu of woodland, twelve hills..."

Yan Jingshu talked endlessly, but Jiang Chenghan secretly clicked his tongue when he heard it.

He almost spent all his money to buy the dowry gift of nearly 8000 taels of silver, while Yan Jingshu only had 3 taels of silver in the box, and he also knew a little bit about it when he was doing the dowry. The shopfronts on Zhuque Street, the houses in Wujin, and the hot spring village in Fenghuang Mountain are all things that are priceless and expensive even if they are in the market.

But Jiang Chenghan didn't know at this time that Yan Jingshu's original dowry was actually not as much as his dowry, and it took a lot of effort to get what he is now.

Originally, when the Xie family was in charge, there was not much money on the books of the Duke’s Mansion for Yan Jingshu’s dowry. The property that does not match the accounts, now these things have returned to where they came from, that is, in the warehouse of the Duke's Mansion.

Since there was money in the account, Mrs. Yan decided to draw up Yan Jingshu's dowry list from scratch. Of course, with Mrs. Yan's protective nature, this dowry list naturally only added but not subtracted. Not only did it make sense for Mr. An, but According to Yan Jingshu, who will go north with her husband in the future, it is most important to have more money in hand, so she added another 2 to the original [-] taels of silver in the pressed box, and in order to have a place to put the [-] pieces of furniture, she also specially took it from her own The largest and best five-entry house was selected from the private property and given to him, and there are other subsidies, which need not be elaborated.

In the end, the total value of Yan Jingshu's dowry was 10 taels.Of course, although this may seem like a lot, it is far from the point where the An Guogong Mansion has been accumulated for several generations, not to mention that many of them are subsidized by Mrs. Yan.

After Yan Jingshu finished speaking, it was Jiang Chenghan's turn to say something. Although he was not someone who would feel unbalanced because his partner was richer than himself, he still felt a little ashamed and said, "I now I will give you one or two half of the salary. In addition, when I return to Ningcheng, I will go hunting and gathering herbs with my friends in the woods during my ten-day vacation. give you half.

I have to give the other half to a business friend of mine, and let him do business. Then I can share [-]% of the profit excluding the principal.But I can't give you the money.You know that I am a soldier, Ning Cheng is far away at the border, and the court's military pay and food are not long enough, I can't watch my men go hungry, so I have to prepare the money just in case, so..."

Consciously not giving Yan Jingshu the best living conditions, or even giving Yan Jingshu all of himself, Jiang Chenghan felt very guilty for Yan Jingshu in his heart.

"I know, I know--" Yan Jingshu couldn't see Jiang Chenghan's embarrassment the most, and hurriedly stopped him, he stretched out his hand to shake Jiang Chenghan's hand that was unconsciously clenched into a fist, and said softly: "I know, You forgot, my grandfather also galloped on the battlefield, and he often told me and my brother about the battlefield when I was young, so I understand what you say, and I will never blame you or anything."

Jiang Chenghan held Yan Jingshu's hand in the palm of his hand, looked into Yan Jingshu's eyes, and understood that Yan Jingshu was telling the truth, which made him feel even more ashamed.

Seeing this, Yan Jingshu became a little anxious. He simply walked up to Jiang Chenghan, held his face in his hands, frowned slightly and said solemnly: "Look at me, in your eyes, I am just a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich. Is it a rich and powerful person?"

Jiang Chenghan immediately wanted to shake his head, but Yan Jingshu held his face and couldn't move, so he could only say: "Of course not, that's not what I meant."

Yan Jingshu was still dissatisfied, and said: "When I wanted to marry you, I knew what kind of person you were and what kind of life you would lead if I married you, but I never took it to heart, but now you are ...Forget it, if you despise me as a money-loving person, then divorce me and marry someone you like in the future—"

When it came to the end, Yan Jing could not suppress the grievance in her writing, her eyes turned red.After that, he let go of his hand, turned around and was about to go out.

Jiang Chenghan didn't expect that he would make someone cry with a few words, and he panicked for a moment, knowing that Yan Jingshu must not be allowed to go away at this moment, so he stretched out his long arms and put his arms around Yan Jingshu's waist, but slightly pushed the person away. It was brought back.

"Let go of me, don't you despise me? Let me go—" Yan Jingshu seemed to be really heartbroken, struggling to herself, but Jiang Chenghan's arms were wrapped around his waist like cast iron, no matter how hard he tried Can't break free at all.

"I didn't mean that, really, you believe me—" Jiang Chenghan put his arms around the man, and he was actually having a hard time at this moment, he was afraid that Yan Jingshu would run away, and he was afraid that Yan Jingshu would feel uncomfortable if his arms were too tight.

Seeing Yan Jingshu struggling non-stop and not listening to him at all, he had no choice but to press Yan Jingshu into his arms directly and forcefully, and said in a deep voice: "I will not divorce my wife, never will, this I only have you in my life, and only you, and I will never marry anyone else except you—"

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, only hugged Yan Jingshu silently and vigorously, and tried his best to let Yan Jingshu understand his intentions.

Facts have proved that such a method is effective, Yan Jingshu gradually calmed down, no longer struggling or clamoring to leave.But Jiang Chenghan still didn't dare to let go. He couldn't see Yan Jingshu's face, so he just stood there holding her.

In the end, Yan Jingshu couldn't take it any longer, patted his hard chest, and said, "It's so hot, let me go."

Jiang Chenghan said cautiously: "If you don't leave, I will let you go."

Yan Jingshu pushed him vigorously, and said, "If you don't write a letter to release your wife, how can I leave?"

Only then did Jiang Chenghan let him go slowly, thinking silently: If you don't write, you will never write.
