Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

Xiangyang, Prince Wei's Mansion, Study Room.

It was a hot summer day in June, the afternoon sun was very hot, and cicadas were chattering among the dense leaves.

The house in the courtyard has green bricks and black tiles as lush as bamboo. In the study, Chen Mo is arguing with Ning Wan. As a person who has come before, Ning Wan’s body has long grown. After Chen Mo’s training in the past few years, she has long been Chen Mo's shape has changed.

Chen Mo at this moment is much more cheerful than when he was gentle with Xiao Ya last night. The beauty also knows how to stir up Chen Mo's emotions and cooperate actively.

The familiar feeling spread all over the body, making Ning Wan's head almost feel dizzy at the moment. The rosy and beautiful face was like a ripe peach, which seemed to exude a fragrance, making Chen Mo couldn't help but nibble on it.

Ning Wan only felt her cheeks itching, then she turned her head to avoid it, looking for Chen Mo's lips, and took the initiative to kiss them. Because Chen Mo leaned down too much, Ning Wan's knees directly touched her shoulders and under her nose. He raised his nose and snorted unconsciously.

Chen Mo stood up slightly to better unbutton the cheongsam.

But I don't know whether it was the separation for too long that caused Ning Wan to miss Chen Mo too much, or because of her special physique. As soon as the buttons on her clothes were unbuttoned, Ning Wan's delicate body trembled slightly, thinking about Chen Mo. Like the surging river, it was vented, and the hand holding Chen Mo's robe was helplessly let go.

Chen Mo lowered his eyes and looked at the bright and red beauty, his face was slightly stagnant, and then he raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "When did you switch to water-based exercises?"

Hearing this, Ning Wan, who already knew that she had lost her composure, suddenly had her plump, white cheeks glowing like fire, like the sunset on the horizon when the sun sets in the west. When she saw the young man staring at her with blazing eyes, she quickly raised her hands to cover her face. His face was full of tears and his voice was soft and charming: "Husband, don't look at me, I'm so embarrassed."

"Don't worry, I'll tell Xue'er about this at most." Chen Mo gently held Ning Wan's plain hand, intertwined his fingers, and teased.

Although she knew Chen Mo was joking, her previous relationship with Liang Xue was somewhat special after all. She was still a little anxious when she heard this and said in a trembling voice: "Don't tell Xue'er."

Chen Mo chuckled lightly and said softly: "Then don't tell Xue'er. Talk to An Niang. She happens to be in the same situation as you. You two will still have common topics to talk about."

Ning Wan: "???"

This is no worse than telling Liang Xue.

Ning Wan glared at the smiling young man, with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes, and said, "If you tell me, I won't show you clothes from the beauty shop."

Chen Mo smiled, and a hint of playfulness appeared on his handsome face, and he said deliberately: "Then I'll find Xue'er and let Xue'er wear it for me."

When Ning Wan heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately said in anger: "Then I'll go find Xue'er later, and let Xue'er show you her clothes, and see who you see."

Ning Yuan's voice revealed a bit of the nature of a little girl. Her face was filled with embarrassment and anger, but in her heart she felt a bit of bickering pleasure.

"I can't count on my ten fingers all the clothes my family wants to wear for me." Chen Mo said with a smile.

Ning Wan: "..."

Maybe he was really annoyed and said: "Then you can find someone else to wear it, I won't wear it anymore."

As he said that, he also lowered his legs from... to strike.

However, the young man suddenly lifted him up and said with a smile: "Okay, you will leave when you are satisfied. My husband has not yet fulfilled his wish."

"You go find another sister."

"Okay, let's stop making trouble. I won't tell anyone about this." Chen Mo stopped playing around with Ning Wan and got down to business.

Ning Wan snorted softly, but she felt very sweet and happy in her heart. Isn't it true that a husband and wife have a life of fighting and bickering?

The two of them were inseparable. Even when the inkstone on the desk was shaken and fell to the ground, making a crisp sound, neither of them cared.

After a long time.

Chen Mo sat on the stool, panting slightly.

Ning Wan was lying on the desk, her two beautiful legs hanging weakly from the edge of the desk, her clothes were exposed, her skin was fair and moving, her rosy cheeks were covered with sweat, her hair was messy, and many strands were still stuck to her cheeks, and her eyes were filled with water. She was very charming, and the high-heeled shoes on her feet had long been lost.

Chen Mo glanced at the fallen calligraphy treasures, especially the broken pen holder and inkstone, and chuckled: "These are cultural relics from the previous dynasty. They are worth a lot of money, and they were broken like this."

"Who told you to do this?" Ning Wan's rouge-red face was filled with shyness, and she immediately said: "Don't worry, Sister Mi knows that you are not serious. She has already replaced the cultural treasures in your study. The broken ones are imitation of."

Chen Mo: "..."

He grasped the little feet that were dangling in front of him like tender bamboo shoots and played with them carefully. Ning Wan's delicate body trembled and she instinctively shrank her feet. Chen Mo couldn't put it down and said: "Wan'er, why do you think you can make money so quickly? "

In the morning, Wei Linchun and the local county magistrate came to him and reported on the situation in the area. The main reason was that they were short of money and hoped that the court would allocate funds.

The money Chen Mo gave last time was just to fill the gap. There was still no money in Linzhou's account.

In particular, Wei Linchun told him that summer had just begun this year, and the two counties next to the important town of Xunwang Town along the coast of Linzhou were hit by floods due to the swollen Huaihe River, which caused the dams to be washed away, causing floods in the two counties and destroying many houses. Wei Linchun diverted all the money in his account to provide disaster relief and build dikes.

Now Linzhou has no money.

"Robbery." Ning Wan blurted out subconsciously.

"Pa!" Chen Mo raised his hand and patted Ning Wan's thigh, saying, "I'm telling you something serious. I'm not a bandit even if I'm robbing you."

"Gambling house." Ning Wan thought for a moment and said, "Opening a gambling house is a very profitable business. Nothing can make money faster than this."

Chen Mo: "..."

Although the Song Dynasty did not ban gambling houses, it did not encourage or support the opening of gambling houses, so gambling houses belonged to the gray industry. It would be embarrassing for him, the King of Wei, to open a gambling house.

"Besides gambling houses?" Chen Mo asked again.

Seeing that Chen Mo was not asking casually, Ning Wan's expression became serious. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Money house."

"Money house."

Ning Wan's words immediately opened Chen Mo's mind. Yes, why didn't he think of this.

Money house, also called bank in Chen Mo's previous life, is a very profitable industry. Specifically, it earns interest rate spreads by accepting deposits and issuing loans.

Moreover, the money houses of the Song Dynasty also issued their own silver notes, which could be exchanged in different places, facilitating transactions for the people and increasing the income of the money houses.

How can the people deposit their money in the money houses?

The most important thing is trust and security.

Especially the official ones, which are more reliable in the hearts of the people.

And these are exactly what Chen Mo can do now.
