However, Gu Celadon and Jiang Yun are not familiar with each other, so I didn't care about it when I was confused.

She and Jiang Rou walked around the Wei Liao Garden together, and then sat down on the terrace to rest and see the beautiful scenery again.

Jiang Rou has a good skill in making tea. She ordered someone to take the tea cakes and a set of tea sets from Chuntou and cook them by herself.

Although Gu Celadon didn't know much about tea, she was born as a young lady, so she knows how to taste tea.It's been a long time since I got married to the Li's family to get these things, and today I followed Arty.

The taste of the new tea is particularly good, sweet and fresh, which suits the taste of celadon.

After being entertained for a long time, Gu Celadon bid farewell to Jiang Rou until a maid at Xiaozhuxuan's window came over, and went to Li Chengze to go back with him.

Gu Celadon was curious about Jiang Rou, so he asked Li Cheng.

Li Cheng told her a little bit.

Gu Qingwan listened for a while, only to realize that she had misunderstood something.

She just said that Xiaozhuxuan window belongs to Jiang Rou's family, because she thought the tea garden was owned by Qin Gongzi, but she was completely wrong.

Li Cheng said: "Brother Qin is the son-in-law of the Jiang family, and this tea garden naturally belongs to the Jiang family. You don't know Jiang Rou, but you should have heard of Beichajiang Mansion."

Gu Celadon took a deep breath, "The Jiang from Guangenhou Mansion? Is Jiang Rou his daughter?"

Of course, Gu Celadon of the Guangenhou Mansion knew that who allowed the Jiang family to almost monopolize more than half of the tea market in the north. When the Holy Motherland hit the world, it was the Jiang family who spent most of their net worth buying food and horses as gifts to the Holy Ancestor.

Later, the Jiang family was given the title of Guang Enhou.Moreover, the previous generation of the Jiang family married a royal princess.

These are not secrets, Gu Celadon knows, but only knows so much.There is nowhere to know the reason behind it that has nothing to do with oneself.

She didn't expect Jiang Rou to be Jiang's daughter.

"Is it the birth of Guang Enhou and Princess Jia Rou?"

Li Cheng nodded, "Guang'enhou's mansion has no male heirs, so he has only two daughters, one concubine and one concubine. The princess is from Jiang Rou, and his mansion did not take over from others, but chose to let his daughter recruit. Qin. Brother is Jiang's son-in-law."

Gu Qingci said with emotion: "No wonder I see Sister Jiang being self-sufficient in her every move, her rules are excellent, and she treats others well. She was born in Guang Enhou and her mother is Princess Jia Rou. So what is your brother Qin? Why did you become a parent?"

Although this should not be said, but the reality is like this, it is generally not a special case, and few men are willing to be superfluous sons-in-law.

"I think Young Master Qin is very handsome and handsome, and his appearance is not bad." She added.

Li Cheng tapped Gu Celadon on the forehead and said, "Brother Qin is naturally not bad, otherwise, how could I be with him." But he didn't tell Gu Celadon any more words.

After all, it is someone else's private matter.

Gu Celadon's heart is also big, and when someone comes over, he may have to ask Li Cheng how to catch up with Qin Ran's recognition.Although Qin Ran is a son-in-law, his status is much higher than that of Li Chengze. Li Cheng wants to have no status, a poor family, and a ruined family background, but she is just married to a girl from the second room of the Mingde Hou Mansion.

However, there are too many people who are honored and distinguished by family affairs in the Tai Academy, who would put Li Cheng in their eyes.

Before, Gu Celadon was going to tell Li Chengze that he saw a lady in Chengguo’s mansion in the tea garden. Just because of an interruption, he forgot about it until Li Cheng returned to the academy. Haven't remembered yet.

——

On Li Chengze's side, most of his thoughts are now devoted to learning, but the things that should be managed have not fallen.

Although he didn’t go to the countryside for a few days back, Li Baode told him about the situation of the land. The growth of water melons is very good, and the first batch is about to mature. A few days ago, people got a bad appearance. Try the taste, take a knife and pull it apart, good guy, the red flesh and black seeds are full of moisture.

Li Cheng asked how it tasted. Li Baode said it was sweet, saying that this thing must be good for sale, especially in spring and summer, when the summer is coming. Juicy melons like this are the best way to quench your thirst.

It's just that the Li family has been relying on rent collection for food these years, and he didn't have a specific charter in his heart to ask Li Baode to sell things, so he waited for Li Chengze to go home before looking for him to find a way.

Li Cheng pondered for a moment, so that Li Baode didn't need to worry, just pay attention to the situation of the melons, and when they were all ripe, they would pick them, and then send someone to the academy to send him a letter.

He will contact good people here, so he can send people to drive directly to pull the truck.

When Li Baode saw his son's heart was fulfilled, he finally let go of his heart.

Watermelon is a new variety of fruit that has never appeared in Beijing. It can be expected that there will be no worries about the market. Li Cheng mainly wants to find a partner.

After all, his family is considered weak, don't look back and don't make money, but let people calculate it.

Li Cheng felt that Qin Ran was pretty good. The two of them knew each other because of a small matter, and they appreciated each other more after they met.

Qin Ran did not shy away from his son-in-law's identity, nor did he see feelings of inferiority, anger, etc., but there were some rumors around him that satirized him for losing his male character and relying on his wife. Qin Ran always laughed at such rumors. , Do not take it to heart.

Li Cheng could see that Qin Ran might not be as simple as it seems, but how could it be that it is better to be smart than stupid.

Although the Jiang family's industry is large, Qin Ran is not contaminated, and he also has his own industry and relationships in his hands.

Li Cheng asked him to cooperate, and Qin Ran became interested when he briefly talked about the matter. If the watermelon is really like Li Cheng's words, it is indeed a good thing.

The melon in Li Cheng's hand is the second most important thing. The pi seedlings of the water melon come out and can be planted in a large area. That is the most important thing. Qin Ran is also a decisive person. When a message was sent that the melons were ripe and picked, Li Cheng turned to inform Qin Ran, and Qin Ran immediately sent his capable people to Hekou Village.

Then the people went to see and taste again, their eyes were bright, and after talking to Li Baode, they transported the water melons in carts on the same day.

When he returned the next day, he said with a smile on his face.

Li Cheng didn’t have to worry anymore. Qin Ran won the water melon at the price of the package, and signed another contract with Li Chengze to expand the scale of the water melon. In a hurry, the melon can be used when July and August are hottest. Down the second batch.

Sure enough, the water melon is very easy to sell, it has a lot of sweetness and water, and the flesh is beautiful. It's big and can't be cut open, so it sells very quickly.

The quantity produced in a few small sheds is also limited, the output is not large, and the price of water melon is not cheap.

However, there is still no shortage of wealthy people in the capital. Qin Ran has channels for such a new thing, and it didn't take much effort to sell it all.

Li Cheng didn't plan to get a large sum of money from the sale of water melons. It was given to Li Baode, which was regarded as family income.

Li Baode felt that this was all due to his son, and he didn't care about it. From the very beginning, his son had taken care of the seeds and cultivated them.Li Cheng asked him to take it. Everyone in the family would spend money everywhere, so they couldn't live on the hundred acres of land.

Therefore, Li Baode still accepted it, but he set aside five hundred taels for Li Cheng to stay by his side, saying that he was all about socializing and socializing outside, and money was indispensable. For the first time in his family, he could only shrink a little. Being broad allows him not to wrong himself.

Li Cheng took it.

He goes to school here, and discusses topics with his classmates every day.Qin Ran is already a Juren, with good academic knowledge, and also helped Li Cheng a lot.

Li Cheng adapted to the ancient imperial examination questions, collected summaries, and was guided by a famous teacher and friend, and his homework became more and more handy.

The old Mr. Yan, who led his class, remained silent, but noticed Li Chengze in his heart and observed secretly.

Li Cheng adapts well here.

But something happened in Gu's house.

Before, the two masters saw a young master Sun in the King Kang's mansion in the middle end and deliberately married Gu Qingwan.

Aunt Zhou also agreed very much, as if she was proud of something.

I don't know how the second master got to know them. First, we had to wait for the fourth girl, Gu Qingjin, to get married, and the second master did not urge the second wife to go to the palace.

Now that Gu Qingjin was out, Aunt Zhou asked the two elders to talk to his wife quickly and make a decision at the Duankang Palace.

The second master turned his back and went to order the second wife.

The second wife was not allowed to pretend to him on her face, like a bodhisattva with her eyes down.

"The master is very capable and prepares such a good family for the five girls. In that case, my aunt can only take this trip, so as not to be said that I am unkind." He shied away from busying with something and asked someone to send the second master out.

Turning her head back, a sneer was drawn from the corner of her mouth.

A few days later, with a bunch of maids, went to the door of Duankang Palace.

Unexpectedly, before one hour, the second wife came out with a stiff face.

The second wife had a bad temper. She returned home from the palace and went directly to the old lady's Shoukangyuan, and called the maid to invite the old lady.

Everyone was there, and the second wife cried to them.

He said that he was not alive, he had no face to meet people, and he was ashamed of others.

"I thought that the second master had already confided with the other person, and it has been roughly reconciled, otherwise I wouldn't just go to the gate of King Kang's mansion like this. But I don't know that the wife of the five rooms doesn't recognize this matter at all. Forget it, you know what she said, people said clearly, although their son in this room is not a talent, but this is the only seedling, even if the princess is not high, he will definitely not marry one. The concubine girl raised in the concubine's house also said that the five girls in our house were talented women who had to write two lines of poems when she saw a person. Their son was only mediocre and could not deserve it."

"Listen to my mother's sister-in-law, telling people to be so humiliated in person, what face will I have to go out in the future." The second wife said, rubbing the corner of her eyes with her veil.

These words sounded accusing the fifth wife of Duankang Palace, but in fact all the roots were in Gu Qingwan.

How can the old lady not know the troubles of the second room, and the second son's doting on his concubine and destroying his wife is already putting people at a loss.

"Useless things!" The old lady's face was dark, "A concubine and concubine can't handle it well. I think you have been a wife for so many years!"

The scolding must be a few words, but the second wife didn't take it seriously, knowing that the old lady's fire was not on her.

The old lady most valued the reputation of the Zhongfu. Gu Qingwan didn't want to be on the stage and asked her aunt to raise her crookedly, but she shouldn't throw her face outside and ask others to laugh at Mingdehoufu.

The old lady kicked her crutches a few times, and instructed the old mother, "Erfang Zhou Auntie had instigated the girl who broke her, tied the person and sent it to the country house to think about."

The second wife can't move Aunt Zhou, but the old lady is just a word here, who dares to disobey.

Even if the second master came, would he dare to contradict his mother for a concubine?

The second wife smiled disdainfully.
