Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 114 Beating the Bai Family Violently (1)
Yun Jinzhong was taken aback. The Guozijian has a knowledge of military skills, and it has indeed been taught to distinguish various types of gunpowder and explosives. However, this homework is not included in the imperial examinations. Teachers and students usually do not pay attention to it. He is quite interested. Today, my sister It was rare to bring it up, and suddenly became interested, and said: "The explosives of today's Daxuan are divided into explosives, explosives and propellant. Propellant is the gunpowder that is stuffed into the barrel of the gun and then sent out. The advantage is the range. It is generally used for marching and fighting. Strong explosives have a small range and high power, while explosives are in the middle. The range is larger than strong explosives, and the power is a little less. It is the most versatile. Black powder, also called pyrotechnic powder, is a kind of explosives, but it is more expensive among explosives. , a kind of raw material that is difficult to find.”

"Oh, that is to say, black medicine, which is rare for ordinary people to afford?"

"Well," Yunjin nodded, "The raw materials are not cheap, and it is difficult to make. In general, except for gunpowder, black powder is quite expensive. The master said that many farmers can afford other explosives. To fry the voles in the crops, but most of this black medicine is used in alchemy... Uh, sister, why do you ask this."

Alchemy?Those who have money and leisure to practice alchemy are all nobles, even relatives of the emperor.Many emperors in the previous dynasty preferred alchemy in order to live forever. Yun Wanqin pondered for a moment, then smiled: "It's just a test of your knowledge."

Is it the King of Qin?
After I came back, I thought about it carefully, and it really didn't look like him. If it was him, why would I follow in the theater? It would be fine if I sent someone to do it. If someone finds out, it would be troublesome.

But - the prince has something to do, who else can benefit, it is nothing more than the King of Qin and the King of Wei.

Could it be the king of Wei?However, when he heard about the Qingheshan Iron Mine, King Wei couldn't take care of himself. He stayed in the mansion obediently all day long, for fear that others would pay more attention to him. How could he dare to do such a thing at this juncture.

However, regardless of whether it is the King of Qin or not, just because he secretly followed the prince, he can be sure that he is definitely a wolf and tiger squatting in the dark for the prince, and has the intention of pouncing on him at any time.

If he was not afraid of being injured by the explosion, he showed up and pulled himself out, but Yun Wanqin didn't know that his eyes were not only aimed at the courtiers, but also at the prince.

Yun Wanqin's head hurts a little, she wondered if she owed him a debt in her previous life before she died, but in this life, the distance between her and him has been getting closer and closer unconsciously, and it seems that she can't get rid of it.

After that day, everyone in the Yun Mansion had different thoughts, and because they were a little shocked, they all stayed in the yard, and it was quiet for a few days.

As Yun Wanfei's retirement date is approaching, Bai Xuehui is even more busy.

Concubines are divided into classes. There are daughters in the family who are concubines. If the conditions are good, some dowry will be prepared for the daughter, but it cannot be called dowry. The marriage system is announced. Generally, the dowry that good concubines bring to the master’s house is called "passing". , the dowry of a concubine who is one level higher is called "Tianxiangli", which means a dowry gift for adding incense to the man. Both names have contemptuous meanings.

But all in all, the general natal family is unwilling to give more. The daughter's status is limited, and she is also manipulated by others after passing through the door. The more money is given, the money may not be in the daughter's hands, and it is likely to be in vain. Cheap someone else!

Bai Xuehui thought the same way, but Yun Wanfei knew that her situation was special, it was no different from forced selling and giving away, and she was afraid that people would not pay attention to her after getting through the door, so she insisted on clamoring and adding more incense gifts.

In fact, two years ago, Bai Xuehui also took a fancy to the Youxian Villa left by the Xu family, and planned to take advantage of Yun Wanqin's ignorance to coax her, but now that girl has grown up overnight, and she is smarter than a ghost. After opening his mouth, he wanted to talk to the master again, to see if he could take a left on the estate of his predecessor Xu.

Yun Xuanchang was really upset when he saw his daughter going to be a concubine in the Hou's Mansion. The Hou's Mansion didn't even need to pay a betrothal gift, just opened the side door to welcome people. Why should I give my daughter a dowry? It's cheaper than the Murong family!
Not to mention the inheritance of his ex-wife, even the most basic dowry was not allowed to take more, Yun Xuanchang was furious and refused.

Bai Xuehui couldn't make money by stealing chickens, and couldn't hold back her daughter, so she had to secretly empty out the property she had accumulated in recent years as a sweet gift for Yun Wanfei. When the dowry list was ready, the small coffers were almost empty.

Thinking about it made her panic. In the past, she always wanted to make a fortune from her daughter's marriage, but unexpectedly she hollowed out herself!It really is money-losing goods!
Yun Wanfei didn't care who gave the incense gift, anyway, she was happy when the dowry was not thin, and her confidence rose again.

Bai Xuehui urged her to keep it by herself. This is her savings for most of her life. Don't take advantage of others. On the contrary, she sneered a little: "Mother, my daughter is not a three-year-old child. How can someone else take my money?" cheap!"

Bai Xuehui knew that this daughter was pampered and spoiled, and she always spoke loudly, but she didn't do things like that, so she could only choose a flexible dowry girl, Biying, at home, and told her to keep a close eye on the second girl in the Hou's mansion, lest she get caught. out of the way of outsiders.Biying nodded repeatedly.

Because Bai Xuehui was busy preparing for Yun Wanfei's departure from the court, Tong Shi also spared her second daughter-in-law to pay her respects twice in the morning and evening, as long as she came every day when she was free.

When Bai Xuehui heard this, she was overjoyed, wishing that firstly, she would not have to wait on her mother-in-law, and secondly, she would not have to face that Fourth Aunt Huang, and her spirit would improve.

Fourth Aunt Huang saw that her brother and sister were in better spirits, but she felt uncomfortable. She hadn't settled the matter with her that day about the clothes.

It had only been a few days since the mansion had been quiet, and Brother Mao was the first to be restless, causing trouble.

Seventy-eight nine, I think it's a dead dog. Brother Mao is just at this age. He just came to his uncle's house in the capital. He was still a baby for the first two days. He only dared to play with Sister Zhu in the yard where grandma lived, and gradually began to feel restless.

After the few days in Wancai Theater, everyone was trapped in the courtyard for a long time, but Brother Mao couldn't stay idle anymore.

It was autumn in the blink of an eye, and once the autumn tiger passed, the weather seemed to cool down, and the sun was not so strong. After noon, the backyard of the Yun family was quiet, most of the masters were still resting at noon, and did not get up.

Especially Bai Xuehui, who managed to have a leisurely time without having to wait on her mother-in-law. After lunch, she chose a soft couch in the main courtyard, drew the curtains, closed the door, and slept soundly, unshakeable.

Brother Mao saw that his mother and grandma were taking a nap at noon, and the servant girl was also dozing by the door. He got up from the kang, put on his jacket, and sneaked out of the yard. Just like in the countryside, I hit the stones a few times, touched the koi in the pond, and finally spun around, unknowingly, wandering to the main courtyard.

Mother said that this is where the second uncle and the second aunt live.

Seven-year-old Mao Ge stood in front of the crescent moon door built by the fence and looked around. It was indeed more spacious and grand than the other yards. Mother said that the second uncle was an official of the imperial court. Not only is the house beautiful, but there must be a lot of interesting things hidden in it Son.

Just looking at the food and drink these days, Brother Mao has never seen it in the countryside, and there must be more delicious food and drink in the main courtyard.
