Chapter 2402 Many children may not be a blessing (2)
Xiaoyu thought that Mu Chen would be able to end up at the age of twelve next year, but she was worried that if she failed the exam, she would hurt her child's self-confidence.
Qingshu saw her hesitation and said with a smile: "Go back and ask Mu Chen's husband. If the husband thinks Mu Chen can get out of the game, then let him try it. Anyway, you only need to pass the children's exam and the provincial exam. It is not like the master exam to get a good ranking."
Xiaoyu nodded and said that he would consider it, and then asked with a smile: "Did Fu Jingen agree to this matter? Nie Yin was suppressed by him until he was thirteen years old, and Fu Ge'er was only eleven years old next year."
She felt a little early after she ended at the age of eleven.
Qingshu smiled and said, "This is what Mr. Qu means. Brother Fu himself said he wanted to give it a try, and he shouldn't stop him."
Xiaoyu nodded and asked again, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is injured. Do you know this?"
Qingshu nodded and said, "I received a letter from Jingen in the morning. In the letter, he mentioned this matter, saying that it was just a small injury. If it weren't for the medicine on his face, he wouldn't need to apply medicine."
This is not shaved or touched when hunting on the mountain, so it is not considered a injury at all. However, it is a good thing for the emperor to pay attention to it, at least it shows that he cares about Yunzhen.
Xiaoyu smiled and said, "My grandmother said so too. I was worried before that I was deliberately saying this to the public now that I am too worried."
Qingshu smiled and said, "Don't worry, the emperor and Jingen will protect His Royal Highness the Prince."
Brother Fu'er didn't follow him, and Jingen didn't have to be distracted to be able to concentrate on protecting His Royal Highness.
After walking for half an hour, the two of them returned to the main yard. Xiaoyu said, "Qingshu, we haven't slept together for a long time. Let's sleep together tonight!"
Sleeping together is secondary, so she wanted to chat with Qingshu more. Although there are many people around her now, Qingshu is the only one who can make her say what she thinks.
Qingshu agreed to sleep in the same bed, but she didn't want to cover the same bed. Xiaoyu didn't sleep well, so she liked to wrap the quilt on her in the middle of the night.
The master bedroom is where the couple sleeps, so they moved to the west wing to sleep.
Lying on the bed, Xiaoyu took Qingshu's hand and said, "The last time we talked together at night was five years ago."
Qingshu smiled and said, "You don't look at how old we are? You can't do anything tomorrow with a candlestick night."
The other two people have to deal with a lot of things, so they can't delay resting in the room.
"Okay, chat for a while and then go to bed."
Looking at Qingshu with his side, Xiaoyu said, "I heard Mu Yan say that Guan Zhenqi's life is not easy now. More and more children's expenses are getting bigger and bigger, and the investment is not increasing but reducing. This time, the Heng family and the others spent a lot of money to Hezhou. They were all a little short of money."
Although his salary was not much in Haizhou before, because Haizhou was rich, there were many invisible benefits. In addition, some vendors seeking shelter would also honor silver and money. However, Hezhou is a poor place, and there is no invisible welfare, and he dare not collect the filial money from the vendors.
Merchants in Haizhou respect him just want to seek protection, so that others have to consider it if they want to make plans. However, vendors in Hezhou want to collude with officials and then oppress and exploit the people for profit.
Guan Zhenqi never thought about being a master of the sky, but he was unwilling to join these ulterior motives with vendors. What the emperor hates most today is corrupt officials, and once they are caught, they will be severely punished. He will not do such a thing as ruining his career for those few taels of money and implicating his wife, children and parents.
Qingshu was not surprised by this and said: "Guan Zhenqi's annual salary plus various subsidies is only a few hundred taels of silver. Only Heng and the three concubines have more than this number of clothes and jewelry every year. In addition, there are so many children to raise, and pen, ink, paper, ink, ink, ink, and ink, and hiring a gentleman are all a lot of expenses."
Although many people like to have more children and grandchildren, Qingshu feels that children who don’t teach many children are not only not a blessing but a death-driven talisman.
Xiaoyu said: "Guan Zhenqi wrote to Marquis Lin'an, hoping that he would help sell the vacant house in the west of the city."
"How do you know about this?"
Xiaoyu smiled bitterly and said: It was all Mu Yan told me. This child has always been very concerned about the matter over there, and he will know what happened soon."
Qingshu frowned and said, "Xiaoyu, you should have a good talk with Mu Yan to let him not waste his time on these irrelevant things. The most important thing he is to study and practice martial arts now."
Xiaoyu thinks these things are not irrelevant.
Seeing that she disagreed, Qingshu said solemnly: "A boy always stares at Guan Zhenqi's inner house, and the situation is too small."
Xiaoyu was stunned and said, "He is also afraid that Heng and Yin Jingzhu will have some bad thoughts."
Qingshu shook his head and said, "With you here, they dare not have any bad thoughts about the three Mu Chen brothers. The biggest dispute in the future is property, but you and Li have already obtained half of the property, and you will let the three children give up the remaining half."
"Why?"
Qingshu said: "Fu'er and I told Yaoyao that the money I earned with Jingen will be donated in the future. If you want to live a good life, you will work hard by yourself."
After pausing, she looked at Xiaoyu and said, "I'm not scaring them, but I really plan to do this. It's better to cultivate them well than to give their children a wealth of wealth and let them learn their own abilities to make a future and earn their own family business."
Xiaoyu was silent and said, "I don't care about the tens of thousands of taels of silver, but Guan Zhenqi felt sorry for the three children so indifferent to me."
At the beginning, I would write letters to Mu Chen and would give gifts to my birthday, but since last year, I couldn’t believe it, and there were no birthday gifts.
Qingshu shook his head and said, "It is impossible for him to justify him with a bowl of water. The children of Heng and Yin Jingzhu have always been by their side, so they must love them more. In fact, you don't have to be upset about the child. There is a gain if there is any mistake. Wei Fang is no different from the three brothers Mu Chen and Wei Rong."
Although he was a stepson, Wei Fang treated the three children as their biological children.
Xiaoyu was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "I'm thinking a little bit. I'll talk about this with Mu Yan tomorrow, but this child may not listen to me if he has any ideas."
My son is old and my mother cannot help but be. Mu Chen and Mu Yan don’t listen to her in everything now. Although they are a little sad, this shows that it is a good thing for the child to grow up.
"As long as you tell him these principles, and then show that you have no resentment towards Guan Zhenqi, he knows how to do it."
The next day, when she got home, Xiaoyu called Mu Yan to the study and talked to him about this.
Mu Yan said with an ugly expression: "Mom, when he was in Haizhou, he swears that he loves our three brothers, but what happened? He didn't even send a letter for a year and forgot the birthday ceremony."
This is a resentment in my heart.
Xiaoyu's heart trembled, and she also complained that she was too careless and didn't even notice that the child was in her heart. Or rather, her attitude had affected the child unknowingly.
After calming down, Xiaoyu touched his head and said, "You are his bloodline, and he must love you. However, his ten fingers are still long and short, and it is normal for him to prefer the few who are by his side."
"Also, He Li has already won 50% of your property for you at the beginning. He is willing to give you the remaining 50% in the future, but he will not be interested in not giving you any more."
Mu Yan was reluctant and said, "Why? He should give us 80% of his property."
Xiaoyu smiled and said, "The industry in your father's hands is only more than 60,000 taels. My mother earns this amount in a year, so there is no need to waste time and energy fighting for it."
"And this is his money. Even if you get it, it's nothing. But if you make so much money, that's rare!"
Mu Yan said solemnly: "Don't worry, mom, I will make a lot of 60,000 in the future."
"Wait, mother."
