Chapter 234 Daming Edition "Mrs. Chatailai's Lover"
Chapter 234 The Ming version of "Mrs. Chatailai's Lover"
In theory, Wang Rongrong was also a lady from a wealthy family. The good official called her father a shameless old thing, but her face changed and she didn't say anything. This behavior made the good official extremely angry. She thought that no wonder she lived here honestly, and she had made up her mind to rely on the young master.
Of course, he was angry. Women in the Ming Dynasty were still ashamed. When Wang Rongrong was snatched back by a good official, she had been making trouble for two days at first, but she was a smart little girl. After two days, she realized that she was robbed in public and even if she was sent back in the future, she would not be able to get married. Although Mr. Shen and her father were friends of the same year as her father, this does not mean that Mr. Shen was willing to cuckold his son. No matter whether there was any such incident, in the future, the daughter-in-law of Shen Ge's hometown was snatched away by someone. After all, she was a second-level assistant in the cabinet. Can she afford that person? Therefore, the best way is to pretend to be stupid and pretend not to know. If her father Wang Xijue was more ruthless, he would directly ask the empress dowager to issue an order, and it might be possible that his enemies could become in-laws.
People are different. For example, Yan Dazhang's daughter Yan Qingwei, even if she figured out the truth and wanted to show her face, she would definitely say that she would not marry if she didn't marry, even if she liked the other party, she would not marry. But Wang Rongrong was the daughter of her hometown. Once she figured out the truth, she would immediately stop and stop making trouble. You must know that this method is good for herself, the Wang family, and even the Zheng family, to everyone.
At this time, the people's tolerance for love affairs such as elopement can be said to be the best among all dynasties. The love letters in the market are the origin of this era. There is still a vague concept of female ***. For example, the famous "Biographies of the Immortal Woman" tells the story of the girl Anna in a first-person tone, and the first time she had a chance to see the rain with her cousin, and then she was out of control... The beginning of the article talks about [love is the movement of nature, and the nature is the emotion, and love is due to nature]. Anna is full of self-condemnation, but at the same time she is obsessed with the extramarital *** in life, and writes the awakening and despair of a woman vividly.
Compared with this book, what is "Mrs. Chatailai's Lover" and "The Unforgettable Dream of the Bridge" can be completely shaved.
Therefore, it is completely understandable that women in this era pursue happiness. People mostly have sympathy for things like elopement, and then they cover up their love with a big quilt. With the blessings of their parents and relatives, then they are not called love with marriage!
Being robbed of a bride is actually the same as elopement. For similar scandals, the custom of the Ming Dynasty at this time was to cover up an affair with a big quilt. Miss Wang could even imagine that if her father got married with the father-in-law, she would be ambitious to look at the position of the chief assistant. And if her life was just like the first meeting] Zheng Guogong, it seems that she is also a handsome man. The Concubine De of the Zheng family must also be willing to marry her hometown and add a favor to the court...
The daughter of the old palace figured out the joints here and vaguely guessed how her father and brother would do things. She didn't make noise or make trouble now, and she calmed down and read books to relieve her boredom on weekdays. Now that Zheng Guofan is here, she is not only not angry, but even a little happy.
This is not because Wang Rongrong was fond of being a fool and fell in love with the good official immediately, but because she figured out the truth. Can crying, making a fuss and hanging herself? Obviously not. Since that is the case, why do you have to do that useless work and give a bad impression on your future husband?
In theory, girls are sensible, this is good, but the good official is depressed! It was obvious that he slapped Mr. Wang in the face, but how did he become like this in the end? Didn’t he become a fool of [picking up girls and buying into husbands, and trading stocks and becoming shareholders]? Moreover, Wang Rongrong’s calmness also made him dislike. Such a scheming girl is also the daughter of the hometown of the Pavilion. Wouldn’t he bully other women when he entered the door? If he had another son in the future... Damn…
He looked at Wang Rongrong with bad eyes, and he treated the other party as the vicious big grandmother in the 8 o'clock romance drama in later generations.
The key to his current rule is the word marriage. For example, the island of Fusang Kyushu must be in the name of Tachibana Chiyo. The princesses in the Fusang area also have their own uses. If a person who is careful and has a big backer from the old man behind him, there will be no safe life in this inner house.
As for monogamy, it was a dream for him. Although he was still fourteen years old, there were many women around him, and he used the insensitive word of the side room. If he used a concubine, it would give many bad thoughts to many people. Others would think that the uncle had not yet had a wife in his house. If he married a daughter and gave birth to a son in the future, wouldn't it be... Therefore, he currently has a subconscious attitude towards any woman with a big background and a big backstage.
After all, this era is still an era when family relatives are concerned. When relatives and clansmen come to you, you have to spend money to support them. If you drive them away, it will be very harmful to fame. Not only does the officialdom look down on you, but even the people look down on you, thinking that your relatives do not recognize you without human nature. Many officials with some reputation and ambitions eventually become corrupt officials because of their relatives.
To give the simplest example, a fourth-rank Imperial College Priest, with a monthly salary of 20 stones and an annual salary of 240. The gray income of various ice and carbon tributes is about 600 stones. According to the price of the Ming Dynasty at this moment, it is equivalent to 300 taels of silver. It is said that it is quite a lot. Ordinary people's ten-year silver is enough for a year to eat and drink, and a virgin maid is about 10 taels of contract. But if the Imperial College Priest was from Lijia Village and there are 100 families of the same clan, then these hundred households are qualified to go to the Imperial College Priest’s house to eat and drink, and you have to provide delicious food and drink. If there is a tribe member, for example, no one is given medicine and his children cannot afford to study, I'm sorry, you are incompetent in the Imperial College Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’s Priest’
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty's system was very scammed and forced people to embezzle.
The good official has no such trouble yet. There are only a few people in his family who are like aunts. Even if they are a lot of daughters in the family, they are already from other families. After getting married, they can only be said to be close, but not considered to be a direct relative. But if they are his wife, they are a serious wife clan, who can just ask for money and official positions. If you don't give it to them, others will look down on you first and think that you are inhumane.
In this way, he naturally felt that he was taken advantage of by Wang Xijue, so he cursed.
"Butler Pu, why didn't you remind me in advance?" The good official looked bad, but he couldn't catch Wang Rongrong and scolded him, so he had to ask the butler first.
Pu Guanshui felt very wronged and said with a blank face: "Young Master, in theory, this inner house is not under my control. The state has national laws and family rules..." He couldn't help but stab the uncle, "I will be a housekeeper to take care of the inner house, what's going on? That is, the young master is young now and has not been married yet, so many rules cannot be paid attention to."
The good official's face suddenly darkened, and Butler Pu quickly lowered his head, "I'm so rude, the young master will take care of him."
The good official actually knew in his heart that it was useless to blame others. Butler Pu had just taken over and could do it now. Why do those rich and powerful families like to have children? Isn’t it just for loyalty? Pu Guanshui can only talk about master and servant and friendship in just a short time when he arrived in the mansion. If you say that the master and servant have deep feelings, it would be purely nonsense.
This is really a headache. The good official felt a little bit thorny and couldn't help but sigh. The little maid Feng Yingying hid behind Wang Rongrong. Looking at him like this, she whispered to her lady: "Miss, he... has really become our son-in-law? Then... wouldn't I want to sleep with him?"
Hearing this, the good official was particularly angry. What a son-in-law couldn't help but say loudly: "Shut up, say whatever he wants!" Wang Rongrong also blushed. No matter what, she was still a fourteen-year-old girl, and she couldn't even call her "big" word.
Feng Yingying quickly shrank her head behind her lady, but when she made it clear, she naturally had to look at the good official carefully. Isn’t the lady’s son-in-law the man she will be the man of the future? This evil man... looks very handsome, but it’s too bad.
"Look, look again, look again." The good official glared at her, "Look at your sister! Let's eat you again."
As he said that, he walked out with his sleeves and really came back with great pleasure. Butler Pu quickly followed.
When he walked to the gate of the yard, the good official stopped, stood for a few breaths, and said, "The monthly silver will be given as the examples of the princesses of Fusang!" Pu Guanshui nodded quickly after hearing this. After saying this, the good official snorted coldly and walked away.
Wang Rongrong looked at his back and sighed quietly. It was not her turn to decide these things after all. The little maid stuck out her tongue at the back of the good official.
The good official was furious. After returning to his room, he was unwilling to give up after thinking about it, so he shouted that someone would call Sun Yinglong.
Sun Yinglong, the deputy Qian's family of the Fushi Office of Nanjing Jinyiwei, is now a serious Qian's family. The difference between the deputy Qian's family and Qian's family seems to be only one word, but most Jinyiweis can't overcome this word in their lifetime. At the level of Qian's family, they are also a number of people in the Jinyiwei.
He is now very proud. His immediate superior, the commander of the Nanjing Jinyiwei is a descendant of Xu Da. In terms of seniority, he is still the uncle of Duke Ding. In fact, he is not very old. He is in his forties and is recognized as a good old man. Of course, the good old man among the Jinyiwei is also a very cunning guy among the civil and military officials. However, this commander is indeed not very concerned about matters. Sun Yinglong has Zheng Liancheng, the left governor of the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and Mu Jiugong, jointly recommended it. This weight is great. Beijing quickly approved it. Commander Xu had to sigh in his heart that Sun Yinglong held his thick legs. Naturally, he had to smile on his face. He personally made up for the shortage of thousands of households. He also said, "Brother!" He will do more work in the future!"
When Sun Qianhu heard the call from his uncle, he naturally immediately went to his uncle's mansion. Who knew that when he saw his uncle, he cursed, "Good you Sun Yinglong..."
This scolding made Sun Yinglong confusing, but if he could get scolded by his uncle, he was no ordinary person. Will his uncle scold a dog on the roadside? Naturally, he regarded him as his own, and then cursed. Therefore, he lowered his head and bowed to him to listen to his uncle's teachings. After listening for a while, he finally understood. He immediately complained with a bitter face, "Uncle Guo, you can't blame the officials for this matter! It's true that Jiangnan has the custom of robbing a bride, but the officials thought that the elder Wang Ge should not be able to do such an unconventional thing!"
"Conscientious? The official who entered the cabinet in his forties has integrity?" The good official has not yet calmed down and scolded Sun Yinglong, "He wants to be conscientious, why hasn't he changed yet? It's better to expect Wang Xique to be conscientious, than to expect famous prostitutes to sell their skills but not their bodies."
Entering the cabinet in his forties is equivalent to the prime minister in later generations. This standard is a young cadre who is still a strong and prosperous person even in five hundred years. Generally speaking, it is not a problem to work for more than ten or twenty years without any accidents. Taking that position is definitely not a good character, so the word "conformity" is too luxurious.
Sun Yinglong lowered his head, let's do it! Let the uncle scold him first to calm down.
Fortunately, the good official was not a shrew. He was just angry that he had taken advantage of by Wang Xijue. He drank a cup of tea that had already been cold in one breath. Then he said to Bao Yiman behind him: "Go and call Wen***'s milk."
Suddenly, Wenren came here. She was actually like a fish in water. For her, she was really a little boy. As the saying goes, there were only exhausted cows and no broken ground. So she not only did not become decadent and degenerate due to various blows, but she was like peach blossoms with rain, and looked even more beautiful. You must know that she is actually in her early twenties and is wearing a third-rank imperial edict, which looks particularly imposing. Sun Yinglong and Sun Qianhu knew what she knew when she saw her and quickly worshiped her. However, she was still a little proud. The uncle could call out this person, which really took me as a confidant.
"I have met the master." Wenren was very polite. After all, she had done an imperial edict for a long time, so she still had this kind of demeanor.
"What master is not a master? Am I very old?" The good official was not angry, but at this time he didn't go around in circles. He just talked about the matter in Wang Rongrong's yard, and finally asked Wen Renshi, "Come and analyze, what's going on?"
Wen Ren lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "I am sure that there is something important in the court. If I am not aware of it, maybe Zhang Siwei and Ge Zhang will step down!"
Sun Yinglong was shocked and shouted: "Impossible, the officials have never heard of this."
The good official thoughtfully and said to Wenren: "You continue talking."
Looking at Sun Yinglong and smiled, Wenren said with confidence: "Sun Qianhu, what you call news is probably to report the news from the eight hundred miles of Kuai Shipin or residence!" Sun Yinglong's face suddenly turned red. He was the Nanjing Jinyiwei Qianhu, and his power was naturally slightly worse than that of Beijing Jinyiwei Qianhu.
"Zhang Siwei, Zhang Ge Lao..." Wen Ren first explained Zhang Siwei's information, and then said: "When Zhang Ju was in the position of chief minister, Zhang Siwei was the auxiliary. There is a saying in one prefecture and two counties that is called asking big things about big things and asking small things about Xiao Zhang. Later, Zhang Juzheng died suddenly and Zhang Siwei became the throne. Others were indeed not as high as Zhang Siwei in terms of reputation. He was expected to be the most popular, but Zhang Juzheng's imprint on him was too deep..."
