There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 455 Zhao Shicheng Comes to the Lu Family (Part [-])
When Zhuangzi rewarded Zhao Cong, he did not bring the hundreds of acres of farmland outside Mu's village.

Wanting to increase the income of the village, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng planned out the barren land and hills near the village and planned to turn them into farmland.

The land area is estimated to be nearly one or two hundred acres of fields.

She used Zhao Cong's name to open up barren mountains. As a prince, she didn't have to pay taxes, and the income from one or two hundred acres of land was pure income.

Li Jiaoniang looks forward to the future.

In three years, she will become the richest man in Yuezhou City.

The two were discussing here, while Hu Laoqi and A Sheng listened.

Hu Laoqi touched his chin with his big palm and said, "There are many people who open up barren hills, but our village has a small number of people. I'm afraid it's not enough."

Li Jiaoniang said, "It's easy to handle. There are three villages near Nanshan, and there are more than a thousand families. When the time is really short of manpower, go to the village to hire temporary workers, and we will pay by the day."

Hu Laoqi smiled and said, "This idea is feasible."

There are not many things to do in the farm, and the fruit on the fruit tree will be picked soon.

Five people in the horse team are enough to take care of them, and the others are idle.

Ah Sheng stayed to watch Zhuangzi, Li Jiaoniang, Luo Cheng and Zhao Cong took Hu Laoqi, Xiang Erbaochunya Hu An, and ten other people to Nanshan to check the mountain.

They chose a place with relatively flat terrain and started to open up wasteland.

Cut trees, dig trenches, mow grass, and work together.

Luo Cheng didn't let Li Jiaoniang participate, there are so many people, without her, it won't delay things.

"Just stand aside and be a supervisor."

Li Jiaoniang had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll be the supervisor."

Seeing that everyone was busy, Zhao Cong also picked up his ax and started to chop down trees.

Hu Laoqi hurriedly smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, this is not allowed. You are a noble person, so you should also be the supervisor."

Zhao Cong ignored it and was still busy with his own work.

Neither Luo Cheng nor Li Jiaoniang stopped him, and let him go, "Let him go, he should exercise his body." Boys should suffer a little so that their bodies will be strong.

Hu Laoqi did not persuade him.

Zhao Cong became more and more happy, and he was sweating profusely from the beheading, and he didn't want to stop.

For several days, they all came to open up wasteland.

Zhao Cong, who started to do physical work, has increased his appetite a lot, and his face has turned red a lot.

……

After living in the village for five days, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng took Chunya back to the city to Erbao Huan.

If people from the city hadn't been sent to urge her, she would still be able to stay for a while longer.

How interesting it is to take everyone to open up barren mountains.

Today is a fine weather, although it is cold, but the wind is much less, the sky is as blue as washing, and the sun is shining brightly.

Li Jiaoniang picked up the curtain, looked outside the car, "I can't go back, Xiao Qi's wedding day, how can I not participate?"

The Tang family is also furious, the youngest daughter is engaged to get married, and it will all be at the end of the year. How much does this mean that she hates her daughter for not marrying early?

But then again, the Liu family is indeed rich, and they are engaged in the business of the imperial merchants.

The Tang family married their daughter very well.

Is it because I am afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, and I will lose this marriage?
Chunya was sitting in the ox cart that was walking side by side with Li Jiaoniang's carriage. She smiled and said, "Sister Jiaoniang, can I follow to Lu's house to see the wedding banquet?" She has never seen the wedding banquet of a rich family. Well, Chunya expressed curiosity.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Cheng, I'll take you there so that you can learn about the process of getting married in advance, so as not to be nervous."

Chunya's face turned red immediately, she quickly put down the curtain, and urged Xiang Erbao to hurry up the ox cart, overtaking Li Jiaoniang's carriage.

Li Jiaoniang smiled even more, "What are you embarrassed about?"

Zhao Cong and Li Jiaoniang Luo Cheng were in the same carriage, he moved his head closer and asked, "Mom, can I go?"

"Of course you can go." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

Last time, at Lu Xiaoqi's engagement party, Zhao Cong acted like a chaotic boy, because she didn't know his identity at the time, so she let him play.

Everyone said he was a fool.

This time, she had to help him restore his previous image.

The King of Pu'an must be a wise young man.

……

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the day when Tang's married his youngest daughter.

On this day of the twelfth lunar month, although it was cold, the weather was fine.

In the morning, a thin silver frost covered the earth.

As soon as the sun came out, it melted immediately.

There is no wind, people sit under the sun, and the whole body is warmed by the sun.

After breakfast, Mrs. Lu sat in the yard, basking in the sun, chatting with several other old wives from high families.

The fruits on the tea table in front of him were sent by Li Jiaoniang, and they were all harvested from the village.

There are persimmons, dried dates, some fried chestnuts and pine nuts brought from the village.

The others were bought by the Lu family.

However, in order to add credit to her face, Mrs. Lu said that they were all brought from the village by King Zhao Cong of Pu'an County.

Several wives sitting together praised Zhao Cong's benevolence from time to time, and praised Mrs. Lu's good fortune. The adopted son adopted by her cousin's granddaughter-in-law is actually the prince of the current emperor.

The future of the Lu family must be bright.

The old lady Lu was very useful, and her expression was unprecedentedly happy and proud.

The eldest girl, Jin Xiu, sat at the side ordering tea, talking about the guests who have come to the mansion today, and the guests who are coming.

Lu Jiaming supported Zhao Cong, King of Pu'an County, and because of Zhao Cong's relationship, he got closer to the magistrate. In addition, Lu You married the Wang family, and the prestige of the family increased a lot.

There are more guests.

The wedding banquet for the youngest daughter of the Lu family was even more lively than Lu You's big wedding banquet.

It made these high-ranking wives very jealous.

Mrs. Lu deliberately showed off again, and for a while, the wives felt sour in their hearts.

"I heard that Cheng Enbo came to Yuezhou City and visited Chen's family yesterday." An old lady took a look at Mrs. Lu and interjected deliberately, "Will you come to the Duke's wife's house for a banquet?"

Cheng Enbo is now Zhao Shicheng.

The current fiancé of the third young wife of the Lu family and Li.

Although Mrs. Lu's title is Mrs. Chu, she is already old and her husband has passed away for many years, so she has no title.

But Cheng Enbo, although his rank is low, he still holds a position in the court.

Another young talent with a bright future.

This old lady Lu had a relationship with the Prince of Pu'an, and she was extremely proud. The other old ladies and wives were jealous, and wanted to disgust Old Lady Lu, so they deliberately mentioned Zhao Shicheng.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Lu heard Zhao Shicheng's name, her complexion became ugly.

The smile faded a lot, and the words were less.

But she must have experienced many things, so she can hold her breath.

Soon, he chatted with everyone calmly again.

"Whether you come or not, the Lu family will welcome you." Mrs. Lu smiled slightly.

But the Tang family is not as well-mannered as Mrs. Lu.

When she learned that Zhao Shicheng had come to Yuezhou City and might come to Lu's house for a banquet, she immediately fell ill with anger.

"He wants to piss me off on purpose, doesn't he?" Tang said angrily, "Isn't it great to be a prince? A big gift? Hmph, I don't care about it!"

The Tang family knew that Zhao Shicheng was coming to the Lu family, and it was her good friend Mrs. Liu who told her.

Mrs. Liu said that yesterday morning, she saw Zhao Shicheng visiting the Zhenbao Pavilion with the young master of the Chen family.

Mrs. Liu also said that she overheard that those gifts were for Lu Xiaoqi as a make-up gift, and they were given as Tang Wan.

Speaking of Tang Wan and Lihou, she is now Lu Xiaoqi's cousin.

It is right for the cousin to give her cousin a wedding present.

After Tang knew about it, he was so angry that his heart ached again.

"Madam, Madam Liu just heard, maybe, she got it wrong?" Mrs. Zeng comforted her.

Because of Tang Wan and Zhao Shicheng's affairs, Tang fell ill repeatedly, and even Mrs. Zeng couldn't stand it.

"What if he really comes..." Tang gritted her teeth, she couldn't chase him away if he really came, "Ask Luo Cheng to meet him, but I won't see him."

Tang said bitterly.

Mrs. Zeng glanced at her and replied, "Yes, ma'am."

……

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng brought Chunya Zhao Cong Xiang Erbao to Lu's house.

As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw Zhao Shicheng stepping down from a soft sedan chair.

Probably because people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Zhao Shicheng is a bit more handsome than the one he saw two months ago.

He was wearing a silver brocade robe and a gray fox fur cloak. His hair was tied neatly on top of his head and fixed with a white jade crown.

With a slight smile on his eyebrows and eyes, he is gentle and elegant.

Among the guests coming and going at the door, it is quite eye-catching.

Many people looked towards him and whispered who he was.

When Zhao Shicheng was in Yuezhou, he was only a student of Jishan Academy. Although he once settled here, he has always lived in seclusion, so few people recognize him.

"I don't know him, is he a relative of the Lu family? Look at his clothes and demeanor, he probably belongs to some family." Someone whispered.

"The white jade belt around his waist is a reward from the palace. Could it be that he is a member of the royal family?"
