Chapter 168 The Prince is Really Awesome
Taking advantage of the few days that could be left, Yu Jiuer quickly directed the people to plant vegetables with short growth cycles, especially potatoes and sweet potatoes. These two things were necessary if they did not want to starve to death this winter.
There are more than one hundred large mirrors and more than five hundred small ones.
Yu Jiuer calculated and wrote on the paper, and told Yu Tao:
"Hurry up and take your men to Liangzhou Prefecture to sell these, and use the proceeds to buy food! The raw materials needed to start the factory are too expensive, and we can't afford them for the time being. We have to fill our stomachs first!
Let the people hold on. When we earn money from the capital, we will buy raw materials for the factory to start production! Once the factory enters normal production, there will be income, and this winter will not be difficult to endure! "
Yu Tao said matter-of-factly, "But selling mirrors alone may not be enough! It will take at least two months to get from here to the capital. If you bring the little grandson with you, it will be even slower. It will take at least three or four months for you to earn money in the capital and send it back. The people will still starve to death!"
"I still have some banknotes on me, plus the jewelry and jade in the warehouse and the supplies for Fengle Restaurant, it should be enough if I save up a little, right?" Yu Jiuer counted everything she could, and then she said to Yu Tao after thinking of something.
"By the way, after you bring the mirror to Liangzhou Prefecture, assign the tasks on your hands to other people, and you will also go to the capital with us!"
"Why should I follow you to the capital?" Yu Tao was shocked. "Isn't this a good hand at taking advantage of others?"
"You don't have to try hard. As long as you can get Wei Zheng's family to accept you, that's all!" Yu Jiuer said to Yu Tao seriously.
"Also, stop calling yourself 'slave' all the time. With the affection we have had since childhood, you deserve the title of 'Yu Wushuang's foster sister'. Tonight, I will let the first lady and your mother as witnesses to add you to my Yu family tree."
"Do you want my betrothal gift?"
Apart from this, Yutao really couldn't think of why Yu Jiuer was so eager to ask her to go to the capital to capture Wei Zheng's family.
Yu Jiuer slapped her forehead and suddenly said, "Now that you reminded me of this, I just remembered that there is also the matter of dowry and betrothal gifts! Those two princesses and princesses who married into Yinshan County must bring some dowry with them, right?"
Yu Tao reminded her, "You haven't even given her a betrothal gift, and you still want a dowry? You're the one who only takes in but never gives out. How can anyone calculate like this?"
"You're right! I've been thinking about money like crazy these days!" Yu Jiuer shook her head and laughed, and then warned, "But it's not easy for you to work hard to earn money, don't give it all to Wei Zheng as a dowry!"
Yu Tao nodded shyly: "I know! But if you don't care about my betrothal gift, why are you in a hurry to let me go to the capital?"
Yu Jiuer patted Yu Tao's shoulder and said, "Silly sister, do you know where Wei Zheng came from?"
Yu Tao said, "Isn't he just the deputy general beside the prince? A warrior?"
Yu Jiuer shook her head: "He is the third son of the famous General Wei's Mansion in the capital, and his family background is prominent!"
Yutao, this silly girl, doesn't she know how much the powerful people in the capital value family background and how much they look down on servants?
If she wanted to marry Wei Zheng as his legal wife, love alone was not enough. She would probably have to take a very difficult path.
When she has time, she will have to have a good talk with Yutao so that she can be mentally prepared.
As they were chatting, Jian Yi walked into the yamen and handed Yu Jiuer a large silver note.
Yu Jiuer took it and looked at it, then quickly handed it back to Jian Yi: "Go back and tell your master, I told you I won't use his money, I will find a way to feed my people!"
Jian Yi said honestly: "The prince said that this is your silver! Have you forgotten the big ship that you stole from the Western Regions? The prince sold the big ship!"
"A ship can be sold for 100,000 taels?" Yu Jiuer was shocked. If it was so valuable, she might as well go to the Western Regions and steal the ship! Why bother going to the capital to get some money?
"Not all ships can be sold at this price. The main reason is that the prince used Miss Lin Siyu's marriage to threaten the Marine Governor, making him the victim!"
When Jian Yi said this, his tone seemed to reveal contempt for his master.
For the sake of his wife, the prince threw all his reputation and pride to the sky!
Yu Jiuer was immersed in the joy of receiving the money and said, "The prince is so awesome! Go back and tell the prince that I will thank him tonight!"
The smile on her face was as bright as the sun, and the haze in her heart was instantly swept away.
With these one hundred thousand taels, her people won't have to suffer from hunger and cold this winter!
In the evening, Jun Mo arrived as promised, and Yu Jiuer asked with concern: "Are your injuries better?"
Jun Mo patted his chest and said, "I am strong and healthy, I will be well soon, I hope my lady will be satisfied tonight!"
Yu Jiuer stamped her feet and said coquettishly, "What are you thinking about? I called you over here because I wanted to apply the medicine to you personally!"
Jun Mo took off all his clothes without saying anything and said, "Look, it's all scabby!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already pressed Yu Jiuer under him, lowered his head, and kissed the red lips he had been thinking about day and night...
afterwards
Yu Jiuer laid on his chest and drew circles, asking, "Eunuch Cao, how are you going to deal with this? He came to the farm this morning and said that he wanted the imperial physician he brought to personally treat Yu Jiuer. Mother didn't know how to get around it. Fortunately, I was at home and I made up an excuse to fool him for the time being!"
"Don't pay too much attention to him! Just tell Yu Jiuer that she doesn't want to see him. You are more powerful than Eunuch Cao, so he is afraid of you!" Jun Mo was not worried at all.
Yu Jiuer poked his chest with her delicate hand and asked, "Is this why you are so arrogant towards Eunuch Cao? Why are you so careless? Aren't you worried that it will backfire and he will trip you up in front of the emperor?"
Jun Mo was so hot from being poked by her that he grabbed her hand and put it on his lips and bit it gently: "If I can't even deal with a eunuch, how can I protect my wife and children?"
After saying that, he kissed Yu Jiuer's lips again.
"This is the first floor, and there are other people living in the next yard. I advise you to be restrained! Well, where should you put your hands? Your injury hasn't healed completely yet, so you can't move too much!" Yu Jiuer shouted anxiously.
"So my actions just now were too gentle and I failed to satisfy my lady? It's my fault, and I must make up for it!"
Soon, Yu Jiuer had no choice but to fall.
When it comes to shamelessness, who can compare to the dignified Prince Jing?
Yu Jiuer's eyes became moist as she thought, in Yinshan, they were in harmony with each other physically and mentally, and she hoped that even in the big melting pot of Beijing, they could still keep their original intentions!
......
That day, Concubine Duan sent someone to call Yu Jiuer to Prince Jing's Mansion.
When Yu Jiuer arrived there, she found Mr. Rong also sitting in the hall with a look of aggrieved look on his face.
Concubine Duan came straight to the point and said to Yu Jiuer: "Please help me persuade him, he won't marry Qingrou!"
Concubine Duan treated Yu Jiuer as her own family member, so Yu Jiuer naturally couldn't let her down.
She nodded, rolled up her sleeves and came to Mr. Rong: "Mr. Rong, are you going to marry me or not?"
"Do you want to hit me? Can you beat me?" Mr. Rong sneered at her posture.
"Do I have to do it myself if I want to beat you?" Yu Jiuer snorted coldly. Princess Qingrou is enough to deal with you.
Mr. Rong did not continue to argue with her. He said seriously, "I went back and thought carefully. Nothing happened that night. We just lay in the same bed all night! She was a young flower, bright and beautiful, with a bright future. Why did she let her commit herself to a boring and rigid old man like me?"
"Mr. Rong, I've known you for so long, and finally I hear you speak human language!" Yu Jiuer began to tease him.
Mr. Rong glared at her and turned his head away, ignoring her.
"Cough cough!" A coughing sound came from Concubine Duan, reminding Yu Jiuer not to put the cart before the horse and forget her mission.
Yu Jiuer sat back in her seat and said seriously, "Since Mr. Rong doesn't like it, then forget it. It's just a man and a woman living in the same room! When Princess Qingrou returns, at most she will be criticized, or buried in the pond to protect the reputation of the Princess's Mansion, or she will be a concubine to a perverted old man. It's her fate anyway. Who told her not to be lovable?"
"Who says she is not lovable? She..." Mr. Rong said this only to realize that he seemed to have overstepped his authority and sat down again in embarrassment.
"Why are not you talking?"
Yu Jiuer couldn't help rolling her eyes. She had never seen such a stubborn man. He wanted to love but didn't dare to. It was a waste of his smart brain and handsome face. It really brought shame to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yu Jiuer added: "Since you despise her, I will persuade her to leave. However, I heard that when she goes to the capital, the princess will give her to the 50-year-old Tai Chang Shi Qing as a second wife. I heard that old men are very perverted. I wonder if Princess Qingrou, this delicate flower, can survive for two days!"
"The old man Taichang Shiqing is older than me. How dare he think about Qingrou?" Mr. Rong stood up again in a hurry.
Yu Jiuer drank her tea slowly and said, "You don't want it, why do you care about other people's business?"
"Who said I don't want it?" Mr. Rong's mature and handsome face blushed to his ears.
Yu Jiuer quickly bowed and said, "Congratulations, Madam, congratulations to Mr. Rong, let's get married soon! I'm afraid that Eunuch Cao can't wait to return to the capital!"
Sure enough, Yu Jiuer had just returned to the farm from Prince Jing's Mansion when she saw from afar Eunuch Cao leading the imperial physician towards the auspicious tree house again, this time with a dozen imperial guards following behind him.
It seems like he won't give up until he sees Yu Jiuer!
