The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 567 Only wives, no concubines!
What Zhao Gou hated even more was himself. If he had known this earlier, he would not have ignored Wang Shishi no matter how busy he was.If you are a person in Song Dynasty, women are just goods, not worth much money, even if they are sold, they will not be a problem.However, Zhao Gou is from later generations, and as a man, he can't make the women around him feel at ease. This is the most useless move.

Even if you hold great power, or you are a wealthy party, and no one is with you, in the end you are just a slave to money.Maybe it's because women are not valued in this era, even if Wang Shishi's affection for Zhao Gou is deep-rooted.Everyone is just admiring it. If they fully approve, they may not really agree.

The world is a man's world, no matter how powerful a woman is, it doesn't matter to them.

The old lady is someone who has experienced it. She understands the pain, especially the heart that is looking forward to the return of her sweetheart day and night, which is exactly the same as Wang Shishi. Therefore, there are some things that Wang Shishi would rather wrong herself than say more, but she does not want to add to Zhao Goutu. Trouble, only the cold and warm know.

If it weren't for the old lady who couldn't stand it anymore, perhaps Zhao Gou would never know that there was a woman willingly kneeling on the hard and cold ground for her own sake, step by step to the Daxiong Hall of Xiangguo Temple.Zhao Gou could imagine how determined Wang Shishi was at that time.

"No matter what others say, she belongs to me, she belongs to the Zhao family, and she is also one of the future hostesses." Zhao Gou said solemnly, "From now on, you don't have to let her do some rough and heavy work. Now, if it really doesn’t work, just hire a few maidservants!”

"Yes!" Steward Wang bowed and nodded, Zhao Gou ordered, so he had to follow suit.

Steward Wang also told Zhao Gou that during his absence, some things were handled by Wang Shishi.Wang Steward and the others didn't say anything, and no one thought it should be wrong, so everyone let Wang Shishi do things according to their own ideas.

Because Zhao Gou didn't consider that a woman without a status was boarding in Zhao Gou's house, for Wang Shishi, her reputation was gone.Unless the time is reversed in this life and Wang Shishi has never lived in Zhao Gou's mansion, it will be difficult for her to remarry in this life.

Because Zhao Gou's label is printed on her body, you must know that living in Zhao Gou's house these days, even if nothing happened with Zhao Gou, no one will believe it if you tell it, unless Zhao Gou is not a man, or has special hobby.

Therefore, it is difficult for Wang Shishi to marry a good family again in this life, either she is a maidservant, or she is sold into a brothel for prostitution.Famous festivals no longer exist for future generations. How many young men and women can't help but eat the forbidden fruit because of curiosity.

However, this era is different, a woman's chastity is more important than her life.Wang Shishi lived in the mansion without a name or distinction, which was a gamble for her.These days, Zhao Gou is so focused on business or his own marriage that he has no time to care about Wang Shishi's feelings.

As a woman, Wang Shishi also wanted to marry Zhao Gou as his wife, even if it was a concubine.It's just that this is a wish that is difficult to realize. Judging from Zhao Gou's attitude these days, Wang Shishi understands in her heart, otherwise she would not be melancholy and joyful at times.

At this moment, Zhao Goufan suddenly realized that he didn't care about Wang Shishi, if he really didn't care, he would have driven her out of the mansion long ago, so why would he take her with him when he left the capital.It's just that the time has not yet come, but now that I think about it, these are just external forms, and they are no longer important.

"Is there a precedent for one person marrying two people in Song Dynasty?"

"What the young master said is true!"

Zhao Gou's words stunned Butler Wang. He guessed that Zhao Gou would definitely not ask casually. The only possibility was that he really wanted to marry Wang Shishi.In fact, it's not that Steward Wang doesn't understand what Wang Shishi is doing, it's just that Zhao Gou really doesn't understand the style, which makes him powerless.

"Master, it hasn't appeared in the current court!" Butler Wang thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know if the young master is taking a concubine, or..."

"Ping wife!" Zhao Gou replied concisely, which shocked Steward Wang again, and Zhao Gou continued: "I never thought of three wives and four concubines, or groups of wives and concubines. , or the wealthy party has never thought about such a thing. Because in my heart, there are only wives and no concubines."

"Only wives, no concubines!" Steward Wang muttered to himself.

Immediately, Steward Wang understood that Zhao Gou would not take concubines, but would only marry wives.However, three wives and four concubines, there are only three wives, which means that even in the future, there will be no more than three wives.What should I do if I become the king of a country?

Even if Zhao Gou is now a commoner, with no official position, no worries.Butler Wang always believed that Zhao Gou would go to the court and live above the temple.Because he is not the kind of person who does nothing, let alone someone who is willing to be ordinary.

Even if he wanted to be a wild crane, it would be under the premise that the Song Dynasty was completely stable and prosperous, otherwise it would never be the case.Steward Wang knows Zhao Gou's heart today, but he can't tell it to the outside world.Since Zhao Gou disappeared, he was still a little worried, but his reappearance this time meant that everything was unknown.

It's not that Butler Wang thinks too much, in fact, that's exactly what he thinks and does.Even if Zhao Gou has a high position and power in the future, he always upholds this belief and resolutely does not take concubines.If it were someone else, there would already be a group of wives and concubines, but Zhao Gou just didn't want to.

When there are more children, the struggle for power and profit will happen from time to time.The education of children is like doing things. Rather than having children in groups, it is better to strive for excellence, and to teach one person wholeheartedly is enough.If there are too many, it will be difficult to balance.

After Zhao Gou's order was passed down, Steward Wang obeyed, and he conveyed Zhao Gou's meaning to everyone in the mansion, even the old lady was no exception.When the old lady heard the news, she wept with joy, and she finally got her wish.

Originally thought that Zhao Gou's marriage to Wang Shishi was nothing more than a concubine's room, and such a result was already fortunate.A concubine is much better than a maid, or a maid.Zhao Gou expressed his desire to marry Wang Shishi as his wife, so Wang Shishi's status has also improved a lot.

After Zhao Gou ordered to go down, he got up and left.

This time, the direction he went to was Wang Shishi's boudoir.When Zhao Gou knocked on the door but no one answered, he thought Wang Shishi was asleep, so he pushed open the door and walked in, a fresh fragrance came in his nostrils.Even though the person is not in the room, the faint fragrance always exists.

Although it was less than a day since the move, Wang Shishi's room was tidy and everything was put away.Moreover, Wang Shishi specially lit incense, just to keep the fragrance in the room.What Zhao Gou smelled was also this fragrance, elegant and light.

"Where did this go?"

Zhao Gou saw at a glance that there was no one in the room, even the quilts on the bed were folded neatly, and there were some books in the room, which must have been used by Wang Shishi to pass the time when he had nothing to do.Zhao Gou glanced around suspiciously, but found that there was no one there. He was supposed to be in the room at this time, but why he wasn't there, Zhao Gou was a little surprised.
