Chapter 148 Family Property

Chapter 148 Family Property (Part [-])
Susu was dragged into the bedroom by Hong Sheng, and then dragged to the bedside. She hurriedly said, "It's sunny, what are you going to do?"

Hong Sheng looked at his daughter-in-law depressedly, "I'm just a pervert in your eyes, can't I just think about that all day long?"

Susu touched her waist and still felt sore, she nodded firmly, "That's the kind of person you are!"

Hong Sheng looked at Susu aggrieved: Baby feels bitter, but Baby doesn't say anything.

Susu: I just watch you do it quietly!

The husband and wife played naively "whoever blinks first loses", and finally Hong Sheng couldn't help it, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I lost, my daughter-in-law is so beautiful even if she stares, it's unbearable." Can't stop!"

Su Su gave him a blank look, and then smiled herself, why is she getting more and more childish.

The big bed in the bedroom was laid by Hong Sheng before they got married. He knew that Susu followed him to the northwest, and the heavy furniture in the dowry would not be able to bring him, so he searched for a lot of good wood early on, thinking of giving it to him. Soda is a thousand-work bed.

Following him to the northwest is enough to wrong Susu, Hong Sheng just wants to give Susu the best he can do.

The bed that Hong Sheng prepared was even more exquisite and luxurious than the one prepared by the old lady for Susu. It was an aloes bed with engraved jewels, carvings, hollow teeth and inlaid teeth.

But Susu has lived on it for so long, but she never knew that there is actually a hidden compartment under the bed.

I saw Hong Sheng moved all the quilts on the bed to one side, uncovered the scarlet felt blanket underneath, and groped around the edge of the bed, Susu saw that the bed board on the side next to the wall was actually slowly opening.

Only then did I realize that the entire bed was actually empty, with two finger-thick iron plates embedded under the thin bed board, and boxes of all sizes were placed underneath.

Hong Sheng took a mahogany box from the top, which was about the size of a doctor's medical box, handed it to Su Susu, and said with some embarrassment: "The income of the family and the silver salary I got, take out part of it I got the dowry, I spent some of the daily expenses, and the rest is here, not much, you can use it first, and then you can rent it later and you will be rich."

Susu took it over and took a look. Inside was a piece of inch gold, two large yellow croakers (gold bars of ten taels), seven or eight silver ingots weighing ten taels, and some scattered silver. two silver.

The land rent that Hong Sheng mentioned should be the [-] mu of military land, which is planted with spring wheat, which can be harvested in July and August, plus drying and trading, at most one month.It is now the end of May, and there are only two or three months left.

Susu said helplessly: "I used to be extravagant before, but I'm really not a prodigal daughter-in-law. Our family is not a wealthy family, and there are groups of servants. I just eat bird's nest and abalone all day long." It won’t cost more than 1000 taels in two or three months.” Finally, Susu looked at Hong Sheng sincerely and said, “I’m really not a loser.”

Hong Sheng waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's okay, buy whatever you like, my husband can support you."

Hehe, never believe a woman who says she is invincible, whoever believes is a fool, this is the blood lesson accumulated by the predecessors.

Although Hong Sheng's words were beautiful, Susu could tell at a glance that he didn't believe in herself, so she fell!What about trust between people!
Hong Sheng hurriedly handed Susu a small box the size of a palm, to please his wife, and said, "See if you like it?"

In that small box were five rubies the size of a lychee, two pigeon blood red, one rose red, and two peach red, all of which were pure and transparent gemstones of the highest quality.

Susu has quite a few gemstones of this color and texture, but not so big.

"It was originally intended to be put on the dowry gift, and it looks more decent, but it's too eye-catching after all, so I can only give it to you in private. Later, you will record it on your dowry list, and it will only be given to you by Mrs. Song. "

After Hong Sheng finished speaking, he pointed to the seven or eight small boxes under the bed that were the same size as Susu's hand and said: "They are all similar things, including gems, pearls, and diamonds. The two boxes over there are Hetian jade and emerald. Keep them all. If you want to wear jewelry, you can make jewelry, even if you send it back to the capital as a gift, it is very respectable."

Previously in Beijing, Hong Sheng had given Susu a lot of good things. Unexpectedly, there were so many in private. Susu was surprised: "Where did these things come from? Could it be that you..."

Susu knew that some troops were soldiers when they wore military armor, and bandits who took off their military armor and murdered people on the side.

When Hong Sheng saw Susu's expression, he knew that she was thinking about it, so he waved his hands quickly, "Don't think about it, not to mention that Qin Dusi was born in the government of Zhenguo, and he has never been short of money. He is Hamiwei's immediate boss - he came from a very poor family. Commander Liu, who loves money, is also a gentleman who loves money in a proper way."

"Hami is located on the main road of the Silk Road. There are many caravan travelers, and naturally there are also many robbers and bandits. Anyway, we have to train our troops from time to time. Commander Liu often asks brothers to go around and sweep up the bandit nests, which not only protects the Business travel, and give the brothers some benefits."

Hong Sheng pointed to several boxes, "Most of these things were obtained privately after I became a thousand households and led troops to surrender a large bandit den. There is also a secret room in the rockery in our yard. There are a lot of bronzes, porcelains, and decoration utensils that I exchanged with gold and silver for people."

Afraid that Susu would laugh at him, he said embarrassedly: "When I was a bodyguard before, I knew that rich people like some old things the most, but I don't know much about them. I don't know what they are worth. Anyway, those things are not as good as real gold and silver. You like it, and I only exchanged it for a little silver. I’ll pack it up another day, and you can take a look. If there are really good items, they can be kept as family heirlooms.”

Susu thinks that Hong Sheng is intelligent, but she knows the value of those antiques and curios in the eyes of the aristocratic family.

Mrs. Shizi carried more than 100 dowry, but what the Song family really wanted to see was only the twenty-carry antique utensils.

Only those twenty liters of antique utensils are the real treasures of the family.After all, the longer the antique, the more precious it is.As for the things bestowed by the emperor, to put it bluntly, if the dynasty changes, it may not even be exchanged for money, it's just tasteless!

Susu asked suspiciously: "Isn't this house ready-made? Why is there a secret room in the rockery? You built it?"

Hong Sheng shook his head and said: "Hami has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. Tatar Wala has always been eyeing the interior of the Central Plains. Not to mention the previous dynasty, it was the powerful Chu. During the 150 years since the founding of the country, Hami was also attacked three times. It is the massacre of cities and houses, burning, killing and looting, so Hami always has the custom of building secret passages and secret rooms, whether Tibetans or Tibetans, they always feel more peaceful in their hearts! This house was naturally no exception when it was built!"

Susu nodded, expressing understanding!

"There are also two boxes of gold and silver jewelry and loose precious stones and pearls here. They were also obtained during the war. They were either remelted or fried, it's up to you."

Those jewelry are the trophies that Hong Sheng deserves according to their grades and divisions. Naturally, they have been recorded in the book on the surface, so they will be disposed of by Susu.

"All the obvious things in our house are in the warehouse, and you have seen them all, but they are heavy furniture and fur fabrics. You can pick them from here when you go to Commander Liu's residence, and they can't be too simple. "

After hearing this, Su Su remembered that Hong Sheng seemed to be saying that Commander Liu came from a poor family and loved money very much.

Thinking of Mrs. Qin, who was born in the government of Zhen Guo and was not short of money, Susu somehow remembered a Disney animation - Beauty and the Beast.
