Rebirth of First Daughter

Yunqing announced his abdication, because there had been signs of it, so most of the courtiers were still calm.

There was no big change after Kai Hao succeeded. But the emperor went out with the empress dowager, which made many people uneasy.

When Ruhui heard the news, she couldn't help asking Meng ranxi, "did the emperor and the empress really go sightseeing?"

"It seems so. But no one knows where they're going. " This must be confidential. If not, the emperor and the Empress Dowager would be in danger if someone set up an ambush along the way.

Ruhui said with a smile: "the supreme emperor and the Empress Dowager are really free and easy. They say that decentralization means decentralization." Although some emperors have abdicated, they still intervene in government affairs. The new emperor will listen to him in everything. When the Empress Dowager and the emperor went out, they really delegated power completely. If you change into ordinary people, you will not be willing.

Meng ranxi also had some feelings. The emperors of all dynasties had several Zen positions. Not to mention, the emperor is very healthy now!

Ruhui also regarded it as a digression, and she asked the most concerned thing: "is there no suitable vacancy?" They don't want to go to the remote and backward county.

Meng ran Xi said with a smile: "I heard today that the magistrate of Jiangning County has returned home. I hope I can find this vacancy." Jiangnan's official positions have always been hot. Without strong contacts with Beijing, we can't find the shortage there. However, Mr. Meng is the Minister of the Ministry of punishment, so it should be no problem to seek this vacancy.

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the change. The tan family also took a fancy to this lack. The queen comes from the tan family, and no one wants to conflict with them for the position of a county magistrate. In the end, they got the position.

Ruhui is a little stuffy.

Looking at her like this, Meng Lanxi said with a smile: "this is what happens in officialdom. Even if it's a sure thing, there will be a change in the end. What's more, we didn't have enough assurance. "

That's what I said, but Ruhui is still depressed. The main reason is that she doesn't want to stay in Beijing any more and wants to go out.

"I heard that Fuyun restaurant has a new dish. I'll take you to have a taste tomorrow," said Meng

It's no use being depressed. It's strange that our family doesn't have a queen like the tan family. The situation is not as good as people, so we have to admit it.

Ruhui said, "take Shiyin and Tuan Ge'er with you. Tomorrow we'll go out and have a good day."

The next day, the family of four went out and didn't come back until evening. Needless to say, it's big and small bags to carry home. However, most of the things in it belong to Shiyin and Tuan Ge'er.

After buying so many things, Ruhui's depression was swept away.

Looking at the things piled up on the table, Meng ranxi joked: "it seems that I have to work hard to make money, otherwise I can't support your mother and son."

Ruhui said with a smile, "I'm waiting!"

Her teahouse business is becoming more and more prosperous. Last year, she made more than 4000 taels of silver, and her clothes shop also made almost 2000 taels. Together with the dowry's property and the mountain forest's income, last year's income was nearly 10000 Liang. The income of the Meng family is only more than 20000 Liang a year, and her income accounts for nearly half of the Meng family.

When Mrs. Meng Wu came with her daughter, she saw Shiyin riding a little red horse.

Seeing her daughter's envious eyes, Granny Meng Wu asked, "sister-in-law, where did you buy this trojan horse? I'll buy one for Yaner, too. "

Ruhui said with a smile: "don't spend the money. Let Yaner play with Shiyin." She often encourages Shiyin to go to Xiaoya and play with Yaner. It's not good for children to stay in the house. Girls should be lively.

Let Yan'er play with Shiyin. Chen sits down and chats with Ruhui.

Ruhui said with a smile, "how can I come here today? Didn't go to the shop? " After Mrs. Meng returned to her hometown, Chen took back the shop and opened a dried fruit shop. It's a dried fruit shop. In fact, it sells a lot of things. It not only sells dried fruits such as chestnut and walnut, but also matches them with peach crisp, mung bean cake and candy.

In the first two months, he lost several liang of silver. In the third month, he broke even and made a profit from the fourth month. After listening to Ruhui's suggestion, we prepared a lot of goods before December. At the end of this month alone, he earned more than 180 taels of silver. You know, the rent of her shop in the past year was 180 Liang silver.

When money was loose, Granny Meng Wu also built a small kitchen in the yard. Because eat to accord with the meal of the heart, but more than three months time wild goose son face has meat. No longer like before, thin and small.

"The shop is on the right track. Just go and have a look once in a while." She didn't dare to compete with ruhuibi. She was satisfied that the shop could earn three or four hundred taels a year.

Ruhui said with a smile: "business must be honest. Even if the price of the things you sell is a little higher, it doesn't matter. The things must be better. You can't substitute inferior for good, let alone short weight. If not, it's time for the shop to close. "

Chen nodded and said, "I see. Thank you, third sister-in-law." Ruhui's advice has saved her a lot of detours.

After chatting for a while, they saw Chen's servant girl come over and say two words in her ear.

Chen's face smile slightly convergence, said: "tell her I'm busy, no time to see her."

The servant girl hears speech, retreated to go out.

Chen said with a bitter smile, "it's my sister-in-law. I don't know where I found out that I started a shop to make money. I came to tell me that my family was in a difficult situation, so I had to borrow 100 liang of silver. "

Such people, such as Hui see more: "poor in downtown, no one asked rich in the mountains have distant relatives, you do not pay attention to her."

"I know. If you borrow it once, there will be a second time. It's endless. " So, she won't borrow a cent. Anyway, brother and sister-in-law are not reliable. If they want to change their face, they should change their face.

In the evening, when she came back, her face was red. At a glance, I knew there was a happy event.

Ruhui laughed and joked: "so happy, is it a promotion?"

Unless the ability is particularly outstanding or the backstage is particularly hard, all the Yamen are going up. Meng ran Xi just went in for three years, and his promotion was not his turn. And this is one of the reasons that Ruhui wants her to be released. She is promoted quickly. While staying in Beijing, promotion is too slow.

"You're right, it's a promotion," he said with a smile

"You didn't lie to me?"

Meng ran hoped to see Ruhui's uncertain appearance and thought it was very interesting: "what are you doing? It's true. It's a step up. "

Just ask Ruhui to know that the official in the original position was impeached by the censor because his wife and concubine fought for their lives. The emperor waved his pen and took off his black hat. "

Hearing the reason, Ruhui looked at Meng ranxi and said, "the Empress Dowager hates to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife. He's brave enough to let his concubine's room weigh on the head of the main room." Although the Empress Dowager was not there, the new emperor was taught by the Empress Dowager. I think it's about the same.

Meng ranxi was speechless: "it was the main room that poured the medicine for the fetus into my room. I almost died two times. That concubine is a good girl, so it's a big deal. "

Ruhui is the principal of the family. Naturally, it is to protect the interests of the principal: "she has done nothing wrong. Which woman would like to have a common child. But if it's me, I won't give medicine to my concubine's room. I'll give that smelly man a bowl of Juezi soup Give me medicine to cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Let men not have children directly, solve the problem fundamentally.

Meng Lanxi explained: "this principal was not married by himself. He was forced to marry. That concubine room is the woman he likes. "

Ruhui just wanted to ha ha: "what is forced is just an excuse for his cowardice and incompetence. He's killing both women. "

On hearing this, Meng Lanxi thought it was reasonable.

Ruhui warned, "I tell you, don't give me any trouble. If not, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life. " It's easy to say anything else. This is not allowed

"You don't have to worry about that. I won't take a concubine," Meng said with a smile. In this life, you are enough. "

I love to hear that.

In the twinkling of an eye, it's time to have a joint examination every three years. Three years ago, Ruhui was very nervous because she had to take an exam. Therefore, Ruhui was very surprised to see that Mrs. Meng Wu was indifferent.

"Are you so sure that the fifth master can pass the exam?"

Granny Meng Wu said with a smile, "I have confidence in my husband."

Ruhui can see that this is not true. At the moment, she was very strange. When she went back, she asked maisui, "have you had a quarrel with Wuye and wugranny these days?" Anyway, she didn't hear of a quarrel between them.

Maisui shook his head and said, "no! The fifth master spent most of his time in the academy and went home to study his lessons. Granny five has been busy with business all this time. "

Ruhui understood after thinking about it: "the fifth master is very filial. If he wins the exam, he will plead with the old master and let the third lady come back." At that time, Granny Meng Wu's life will not be so comfortable. So, Granny Meng Wu's mood is very complicated!

However, thinking about Chen's change, Ruhui thinks that she may be worried too much. Chen doesn't even care about Meng Guangwu's future, and there's not much left for her husband and wife. Mrs. Meng San has no chips to suppress him.

After thinking about it, Ruhui asked Meng Lanxi in the evening, "can the fifth brother pass the exam this time?"

Meng ran Xi shakes a head way: "some hang. But don't tell me about it. Maybe with good luck, I won the exam! " There is also luck in the scientific examination. For example, he was lucky enough to study with LAN Yanghui for more than a month, so his ranking was beyond his expectation.

Ruhui asked: "if Meng Guangwu is successful in the exam, he will be an official in the court, too?"

Needless to say, for sure. After studying hard for so many years, I still have to use the imperial examination to become an official.

Ruhui chuckled, and then said, "if Meng Guangwu is an official in Qingshui Yamen in the capital, it's OK. If it's released, there's a mother who asks for money like three aunts. Do you think he has good results? " As far as the third lady of Meng is concerned, she is sure to make Meng Guangwu a corrupt official. At that time, Meng Guangwu will either be beheaded or imprisoned.

Meng ranxi was silent and said, "wait until he gets the test." If Meng Guangwu passes the exam, he will certainly pass on Ruhui's words to master Meng.
