[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

Today I am very disgusted to see my grown-up youngest son, doing things that I never did when I was a child, complaining to a courtier in front of me, and now I feel that I did not kick him, compared to the previous emperor, What a good father.

In order to maintain his image as a loving father, and to see Shen Yue's jokes, he actually called Shen Yue to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and asked him to apologize to the Ninth Prince.Shen Yue, who was so busy that he heard that he was asked to apologize to the Ninth Prince, was a little inconceivable: "Sending educated officials to serve the country shows that the Ninth Prince is good at educating people, and it is a beautiful thing to make the Ninth Prince famous. What's wrong?"

That's right, now that he personally made this decision, he felt that Shen Yue was right, and looked at his youngest son again.The thought of the Ninth Prince was not at all in sync with his good father: "Those people took so much effort to teach them to look like human beings." As a result, you all sent them away with one word.

Shen Yue nodded understandingly: "I didn't expect that the Ninth Prince still has the heart to educate talents for the country. However, if the students are successful in teaching, they have to do things to see if they have real talents. Besides, how many students in the whole country hope to be the Ninth Prince Teaching. Why don't the Ninth Princes continue to recruit students." The Imperial College is also idle.

The Ninth Prince touched his heart, although he was afraid that the people he had managed to teach would be taken away, but he couldn't resist the temptation to crush others with his IQ every day, so he turned his begging eyes to his father.

Today, although I feel that my son seems to be brought into the ditch by Shen Yue again, but seeing a big man chattering, I can still feel the joy of being relied on by my son at the first sight. After a long time, it makes people upset. There is no need to nod to the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince was revived with full blood, and wanted to ask Shen Yue about the admission rules, but Shen Yue directly reprimanded him: "The Ninth Prince should consult with the various ministries, and they should see what kind of talents they need, and send them out. Based on the feedback from the teaching staff, let’s see what kind of talents the empire needs, instead of building a car behind closed doors with the ministers.” Putting your own father on me and wanting me to give you advice, there is no way.

However, the Ninth Prince felt that Shen Yue had pointed out the way for him, and after solemnly thanking Shen Yue, he happily left the Hall of Mental Cultivation.Shen Yue, who was thanked for no reason, looked at the present with a confused face: "Is the Ninth Prince enlightened?"

Today, he directly gave him a roll call, and he didn't want to deal with this stuff anymore - any parent would not want their son to become a monk, even today it is not exempt.

What they didn't know was that the Ninth Prince's enrollment was really all-encompassing. In addition to the National Normal University, a National Institute of Technology was added to the empire, which laid the foundation for the empire's technological leadership to always be ahead of the world.

Shen Yue was kicked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he didn't feel ashamed at all, there were still a lot of things waiting for him, he really didn't have time to care about the issue of face, and he didn't have time to care about his current mood:

The Ministry of Industry where the Seventh Prince is located, even with the support of the hundred steel smelting produced in the past, cannot meet the large demand for new firearms at the front line. The speed of steel smelting has to be increased, and how to screen iron ore has to be pushed by Shen Yue to the editorial office. Find a place to come.

The household department where the sixth prince is located needs to allocate food and grass from various places to support the army. How to coordinate it more reasonably requires Shen Yue to discuss it carefully.The eighth prince was about to go to sea, so he had to discuss with Shen Yue about the customs and customs of these countries.And because the Ministry of Industry needs a lot of steel, Shen Yue has quietly asked the Eighth Prince to pay attention to the continent that is rich in iron ore in the south of the ocean...

Shen Yue, who was at his wit's end, heard that the people left behind by Zhang Yi came to report to him that the garden had been completed, and felt that he should steal half a day's leisure and take his wife to inspect the garden together, so he didn't talk to anyone. Said, quietly slipped back to the mansion.

Looking at Shen Yue who was blatant and skipping work, Daiyu didn't even ask if it was suitable, she silently dressed neatly, and followed him to the main entrance of the garden.

This garden was not built in the city, but it was five or six miles away from the city gate.Fortunately, the concrete road has been paved in Beijing, and it only takes an hour to arrive.

It was originally a barren beach, but Shen Yue bought it all for one reason, and that was cheap: he could only buy 20 mu of land elsewhere, but he bought a full [-] mu of land here.Not only is the place big, but there is also a pool of running water leading to the moat. When Shen Yue drew the blueprints, he calculated this water into it and asked people to build a pond with a size of more than [-] mu.

At this time, the weeping willows transplanted by the water have already become shaded, and the green branches are blowing gently on the water surface with the wind, which makes the koi in the water leap out to bite from time to time, but unfortunately the leap cannot last long, so they have to fall back into the water to regain strength.

Half of the water surface is already covered with tender lotus leaves, and occasionally a hot-tempered lotus stalk rises above the leaf surface, and the pointed flower buds are formed, which is even more patchwork.At first glance, it is refreshing.

Sitting on the specially built western-style carriage, Daiyu shouted at one scene, and then laughed at another scene: "Brother Ai, I'm bothering you. It's just that with such a garden, the princes and concubines may not want to go back to the prince's mansion." gone."

Shen Yue smirked: "Whether they come back or not has nothing to do with me, as long as you go home."

Seeing that there was a fork in the road, Daiyu couldn't help asking: "Where is this going?"

Shen Yue made a signal, and the driver didn't dare to lift his head and led the horse to turn over.After walking a few hundred steps, I saw a few huts appearing in front of my eyes. These huts were different from the ones on the Zhuangzi where the flower house was located, and they looked taller.

Daiyu was helped out of the car, and saw all kinds of grass and flowers spread out around the hut, and Zhu Zhufenfen competed for spring, as if to attract people to find out.After entering the room, I realized that there is something strange inside: Although it is a hut, the interior is exquisitely repaired, and the furniture is all made of yellow rosewood, which does not look dull.

Each house has a room for the kitchen. The oven inside has already been repaired, and even some durable ingredients have been placed in it.Shen Yue explained to her: "This place is only open to you, the princess, and the princes and concubines. Everyone has their own place. Let them bake what they want to bake by themselves, so as not to come to our house every day."

After hearing this, Daiyu defended the princes and concubines: "Princes and concubines also share their experience in raising children together." Shen Yue rolled his eyes directly, they were not exchanging experiences on raising children, they were clearly exchanging experiences on how to play with their own sons.

So I took Daiyu to a place where there were slides, see-saws, sand pits, mini castles and other things that he came out of. It was clearly a small children's paradise.Forget about anything else, looking at the bunker, Daiyu, who has always been happy and clean, was a little puzzled: "What are you doing with a pile of sand, it's so dirty."

Shen Yue grabbed a handful of sand and showed her: "This sand is specially transported sea sand, and it has been washed several times. After the children play, it will be clean with one tap, and it won't dirty their hands. "He said again: "This place is the place where only Jinka's wives can bring their children."

Then he carefully took Daiyu to look at the areas that the gold card, silver card, and bronze card can respectively go to.The place is big, and I have to think that the return journey should not be too late, so I had to take a quick look at the flowers.Ruode Daiyu complained to Mrs. Fang after returning home: "Tomorrow, my wife and I will have a nice stroll, but today we haven't seen enough."

After listening to Daiyu's introduction, Mrs. Fang was very moved, but she couldn't bear to part with her grandson, and she wanted to inquire about her brother's marriage, how could she let herself go?The princes and concubines did not have such scruples as Fang's, and even the second princess who was about to marry was brought in to inspect and accept the garden together.

After reading it, everyone's unanimous opinion is regret - the money collected by the annual card is too cheap!Such a good place, with such complete preparations, only charges 1000 taels of silver a year, what a conscientious seller.

In this garden, there are not only ovens for making snacks, but also embroidery workshops, painting studios, tea ceremony rooms, calligraphy halls, musical instrument rooms, etc. Shen Yue even thought of fake hot springs.Fortunately, he still has some scruples, otherwise he would dare to come out of the swimming pool.

But everyone's favorite turned out to be the children's playground, and they kept teasing Daiyu: "This place must be built for your son. The original garden map does not have this."

Daiyu didn't admit it: "It's too early for Yi'er to be able to play this. This is for the emperor Sun Xiu."

Even if she knew that she was lying with her eyes open, the eldest concubine still accepted her love: "It's hard for Mrs. Xiaoshen to miss him, let him go to thank Mrs. Xiaoshen in person tomorrow."

Daiyu was so frightened that she waved her hands again and again: "Sister-in-law, please don't hurt me. Your son and elder brother Ai don't know what is wrong with each other. My father has broken up many lawsuits for the two of them. I can't tell. I don't have the skills of a father. Don't get involved with the two of them."

The eldest concubine was also very helpless about this, her son treated others with a modest and polite manner, but when facing Shen Yue, he tried to dig a hole for him to trip him up.However, he is not as experienced as Shen Yue, Shen Yue often sees through the stumbling blocks and pitfalls at a glance, and then he can only be unlucky for the eldest prince, who is talked about or made trouble by Shen Yue.Then the eldest grandson of the emperor complained to Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai stepped forward to find a place for the eldest prince.Such a cycle goes on and on, and the two of them never get tired of it.

The princes and concubines looked at the garden, and all of them really did what Daiyu was worried about, wishing they could live in the garden instead of going home.It was also discussed that starting from the eldest prince and concubine, everyone would take turns to be the hosts and play the garden one by one.Some people have already thought about posting a post to invite their natal family to have fun together.

Daiyu invited everyone to sit down in her room, made tea and offered it herself, and then said: "We have collected money from others for handling cards. It is not good if we don't open the park for a long time. It is better to open the park directly on a date, so that no one will think that we have taken it away." People's money, but only for their own fun."

The First Prince and Concubine had some concerns: "There is still war at the border, we are opening the garden with great fanfare, lest someone scold us for disregarding the heroes ahead, and only care about extravagance and pleasure."

Even today, there are such concerns. Xiaochao hinted to Shen Yue at the meeting, and the garden was opened quietly.But Shen Yue has his own theory:

"The sage's concern is far-sighted, so I can't wait. I just think that the soldiers on the front line defending their homes and the country are also for the safety of their families and wives in the rear. What's more, since the war started, how many rumors have been spread in Beijing? When our garden was opened, it was shown to the people that the production and life of the empire were not affected by the war." If you have the ability to tell your own daughter-in-law, don't drag my daughter-in-law.

"Moreover," Shen Yue changed his tone: "The gardens built by the princes and concubines have another meaning to open at this time, that is, to dedicate the annual card fee to the court to subsidize the families of frontline soldiers. The princes and concubines care about the hearts of soldiers and their families."

The great scholars looked at each other in blank dismay, even the princes who had already obtained the qualifications to participate in the Xiaochaohui were also shocked by Shen Yue's amazing sum: Everyone knew how much money was charged for an annual card in the garden, and they also knew But almost all the families who can get by do not apply for a card.The princes and concubines are really willing to donate all the money to the families of the soldiers.

Regardless of whether the princes and concubines really have such an idea, their husbands should also follow Shen Yue's thinking, implement this idea, and stand up one by one, please accept the princes and concubines now. This whole heart.

Today, Longyan Dayue still has to pretend to ask Shen Yue why the princes and concubines have to donate the money to the families of the soldiers instead of directly using it for military expenses.Shen Yue answered righteously and sternly:

"The minister also heard from his wife that the princes and concubines are well aware of the righteousness, and know that our country is at its peak, and the court has its own way to raise some military expenses. But the soldiers are serving their lives on the front line, and their families have to worry about their husbands, and they are still filial to their parents-in-law, Raising children, worrying about food and clothing for the family."

"As women, the princes and concubines feel that half of the soldiers' contributions are made by their families. But the war has not ended, and it is not easy for the court to grant rewards, so they came up with such a method, which is also for the peace of mind of the soldiers. , make a little effort, and subsidize a little."

"Princes and concubines are deeply aware of righteousness, and they are indeed role models for women in the world." The scholars felt that the princes and concubines were really willing to spend such a large amount of money, so they had to praise them no matter what.Today, he couldn't help but let Gao Fu open his own private treasury, rewarding the princes and concubines one by one, without leaving behind his three daughters and Daiyu.

The princes went back to the mansion, and after talking with the princes and concubines, they realized that their daughter-in-law had never said that they would donate money.So one by one, they ordered their daughter-in-laws to agree with Shen Yue. From then on, no matter when they told anyone, they had already prepared the money and were waiting to donate it.

The princes and concubines are not fools, what is a year's bonus, how can it be honored by the phrase of being a model woman in the world? !This compliment cannot be bought with money.

On the day when the park opened, everyone knew that the money they got for the card was not collected by the princes and concubines, but was donated to the families of the soldiers. Those who were clever thought whether they would donate it too. one serving.

For fear of creating comparisons, Daiyu and the princes and concubines politely declined the requests of these wives and wives, but selected ten well-known and impartial ones to serve as directors of the donation branch office, responsible for reviewing the distribution of donations.

Later the first princess reported the matter to the empress, and the empress issued an edict to summon these ten wives in person, not to mention that she even wrote letters of engagement for them, and also gave these ten wives a monthly allowance from her own private treasury.Agree that these ten wives are serving the country.As a result, the trend of issuing cards in Beijing is even more grand.

And the family members of those soldiers soon received subsidies ranging from five to ten taels.All of them were overjoyed, and wrote letters to their husbands or sons one after another, detailing this unprecedented grace, which filled the soldiers with fighting spirit and made them victorious in the battle against Beirong.

The cement factories that Zhang Yi built in various places played a huge role at this time: after the frontier army occupied Beirong, the usefulness of cement was maximized.As a nomadic people, the Beirong people lived in the grass. When the imperial soldiers fought over, the scimitars in the hands of the Beirong people were no match for hot weapons, so they had to retreat to the depths of the grassland as before.I thought it would be fine to come back after the imperial soldiers withdrew.

But this time, the soldiers of the empire were still chasing them, leaving behind them not empty pastures, but small fortified cities.Although those small towns were not big, they sprang up almost overnight, and they were linked together into lines, each with its own horn.

The Beirong people lost the courage to fight back, because they believed that the Central Plains Empire had been helped by gods, otherwise it would not have been completed overnight, and they would not dare to fight against the empire. They drove the few remaining cattle and sheep, crying migrating further north.

It wasn't until the Beirong people were driven across Lake Khuvsgul that the soldiers stopped their pursuit.It's not that they don't want to pursue it anymore, but that the current population of the empire is not enough to support the guards on such a vast border.

This makes people have to think of Shen Yue's remarks about having more children.Now it seems that it is a wise saying-this country is so big, whether it is guarding or building, people are needed everywhere.

But having more children is not something that happens overnight, nor is it something that you can have if you want to have children-a big man has no daughter-in-law, even if you let him have him, he will not be able to give birth.

So following the non-draft, another government order has been issued today, which is to strictly control the number of concubines for officials and people, and to encourage widows to remarry.Originally, such laws and regulations were not absent in the court, but they were not strictly enforced.In particular, some people are very good at taking advantage of loopholes - hiring Tongfang girls.

In essence, it is warming the bed for the male master, but she is still a girl in name, so she is not a concubine, because the housekeeper does not have a concubine document.Shen Yue said that this is not a problem, the tax field has been checked, whether this slave is marrying or warming the master's bed, still can't find out?

When you buy a slave, you must have a body deed, which clearly remembers the name, surname, and age.The imperial court has a large number of censors, and they are too idle to do anything. Take the list of slaves registered by your family, and compare them one by one.This slave is not married after twenty, sorry, please pay the tax.

Although the censors felt that they were overqualified, they couldn't stand the emperor's order.Besides, whether the internal governance is strict or not is also an item of official performance evaluation, which can barely be regarded as their own job.

How many officials and rich businessmen hate Shen Yue so much that their teeth are almost gnawed, and there are so many wives and wives who show their favor to Daiyu.Mrs. Xiao Shen is very good at controlling her husband. If it wasn't for him not being able to take concubines and being angry but being hugged by others, Mrs. Xiao Shen would definitely not be able to come up with such a good idea.

Daiyu's popularity in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing and China was so high that there were a lot of responders with a wave of arms.The ten wives of the Bank Donation Branch Office who had received letters of appointment from the Queen embraced Daiyu's thigh with winking eyes.

Because of the last act of donating silver to subsidize the families of border officers and soldiers, these ten wives also gained a good reputation.Who doesn't love such a good reputation?But just one thing, there are always times when it is forgotten, so this reputation must continue.

So the ten wives walked on the road to raise donations, never looking back.No matter where they heard that there was a flood or drought, they would raise money to help the distressed female relatives.But this money can be raised once or twice, and no one will donate it after a long time.At this time, Daiyu stood up and made the first donation, and then other wives followed suit.

In the end, Shen Yue couldn't see it, and gave Daiyu an idea, that is, the money obtained from the donation place should not be donated, but should be invested outside to obtain income, and then use this part of the income to donate to others. other people.Otherwise, one day, there will be fewer people following the trend, and won't others have to read Daiyu's jokes?

It is said to be investment, but Daiyu and the others are only exporting technology.

Doing snacks, embroidery and other things are the skills commonly used by women in this era.Since Daiyu and the others started operating the garden, new dim sum recipes have emerged one after another, whether they are eaten by themselves or given away, they are all very popular.

Shen Yue's idea for Daiyu was to select some poor, good-natured women from all over the country who supported their families alone, teach them how to make dim sum, and then open a dim sum shop for them in the local area. After making a profit, Every year, one transaction of profit goes back to the donation sub-branch.

In this way, more and more money will be recovered, and the pressure to donate will become less and less, which will further promote the woman to go out of the house, and let the world see that this woman can also support the family.

As soon as this method came out, the princes and concubines who found it fresh also went to the battle to teach those who were selected several times, and agreed that after they returned to their hometowns, they could continue to teach others-only women-so that more women able to support themselves.All of a sudden, women all over the country knew that this royal daughter-in-law had both ability and political integrity, was compassionate, and cared for the common people wholeheartedly.

The daughters-in-law gained a good reputation, and the princes felt that the pressure on them was even greater.Shen Yue told them that the way to relieve this pressure is to work harder than their wives, as if their reputation is better.

The princes collectively gave Shen Yue a supercilious look, don't think that you are the only one who can roll their eyes.Who doesn't know that the combined reputation of all the princes and concubines is not as famous as that of Daiyu alone?But why don't you see that you work harder than your daughter-in-law, but think about skipping work every day and go home to accompany your daughter-in-law?

They had reason to believe that if Shen Yue hadn't been wasting Daiyu's time, Jing'an's anthology of poetry would not be unable to publish after the third volume, and the donation branch office would not be supported by his wife.

Shen Yue felt that the princes were just jealous that they dared to skip work, that they could often accompany their daughter-in-law to make snacks, go shopping in the garden, and they could sing poems and paintings together.He ignored the princes' white eyes, and Shi Shiran left his office, wondering if he would also give the cream to Su.

Because today is Brother Yi's birthday, Shen Yuezao made an agreement with Daiyu that the husband and wife should bake a new snack for his son together, lest the boy keep complaining to his grandfather and grandfather, saying that his parents only want two people Playing together, I never thought that I had a lovely son.
