…………
After a long time, Zhou Chen and Zhang Haohao had already stood up. Zhang Haohao put on Zhou Chen's clothes gently. What was different from before was that when she looked at Zhou Chen again, her eyes were as tender as water, her eyebrows were open, and she was full of energy.
Very exciting.
If Zhou Chen could help her deregister, she was grateful and willing to follow Zhou Chen, then the future that Zhou Chen just told her had completely conquered her heart.
For these women, who were born in Jiaofangsi, most of them are confused about the future, and few of them have plans.
Even if she is redeemed by someone and taken back to be a concubine, she is still under someone else's fence and cannot be free.
Even if you redeem yourself after reaching age, the future will be very difficult.
As for heirs, it is unimaginable for them. Who would think highly of the descendants of official prostitutes?
But Zhou Chen gave Zhang a good guarantee, not only expressing his willingness to have children with her, but also promising to give her children a bright future. This was even happier for her than Zhou Chen helping her deregister.
What woman doesn’t want to have children of her own? What woman doesn’t want her children to have a future?
Although these are still very far away for Zhang Haohao, it does not prevent her from imagining a bright future.
"I will arrange for someone to help you with your derogation. It will be done before the year. Then you can go back to the yard I arranged to celebrate the New Year."
"I have already arranged the house for you, but as for the servants, I have only arranged a few maids to clean the house and guards the house. You can find the maids and stewards yourself, and I will have someone bring you the banknotes.
"
Zhou Chen told Zhang Haohao all his arrangements.
Zhang Haohao said hurriedly: "Master Hou, there is no need to give me any money. I have saved some money over the years, which is enough."
Zhou Chen smiled and touched her cheek: "Your money is your money. Now that you are with me, it is only natural that I spend money for you. You don't have to refuse."
After Zhang Haohao listened, he stopped insisting and smiled sweetly at Zhou Chen: "Okay, I will do whatever you want me to do."
Zhou Chen acted very quickly. The next day, someone came to help Zhang Haohao redeem his life and renounce his citizenship. The person who came to do this was an official from the Ministry of Rites. Of course, the Department of Jiaofang did not dare to let him go, so everything went smoothly.
It's done.
Once she was freed from her citizenship, Zhang Haohao was extremely excited. She left Jiaofangsi that day, and without taking anything with her, she went directly to the house arranged for her by Zhou Chen.
The Spring Festival is coming in two days, and Zhou Chen also has a rare holiday. Song Dynasty officials still have a lot of holidays. During the festival, as long as nothing major happens, he, the deputy commander of the front department, can also rest at home.
Under the command of Zhao Pan'er, the entire Hou Mansion was decorated with red lanterns and hangings, making it very festive.
"Master Marquis, there is something I want to discuss with you. During the Spring Festival, I want to call Yinzhang and Sanniang. They have no other relatives in Tokyo except me."
"Of course it's no problem. You can make up your mind on this matter. It will be more lively if there are more people during the New Year."
Zhao Pan'er's face was filled with a smile, and Zhou Chen went along with many things for her, which made her very satisfied.
"After the New Year, the Queen will hold a banquet in the palace, and she will invite ladies from all over the country to the banquet, and she will also invite me."
"Go if I invite you. If there is someone at the banquet who doesn't have a good eye, don't be polite. You are my wife, Zhou Chen, and no one can bully you."
"I understand, my officer is the most capable and caring officer in the world."
Zhao Pan'er leaned happily on Zhou Chen's body.
Fushanfang!
It has been a few days since Zhang Haohao moved to Fushanfang. The environment here is beautiful and secluded, and the house is large. It is better than she thought, and the place is very comfortable.
Zhou Chen made good arrangements. There were several nuns in the courtyard, who were there to help with cooking, cleaning, etc. He also arranged for six nursing homes.
However, Zhang Haohao still felt that there was something wrong with it, so she went out with two nurses and a nun.
Having lived in Tokyo for many years, Zhang Haohao was very familiar with Tokyo. She wanted to buy some maids, so she went directly to the dental shop.
In ancient times, this kind of tooth shop was quite common, because many people who could not survive would sign contracts to sell themselves, and many people who were trafficked would also be caught in the tooth shop, like many people's maids and servants.
Wait, we will all buy and sell from the tooth shop.
With the contract of sale, those servants who were bought and sold had nowhere to go, because they were not qualified to move around because they were lowly, and it was normal for them to be executed if they were caught.
Zhang Haohao's mobility was still good, and he quickly took away four maids from Yahang. The eldest was nineteen years old and the youngest was only fourteen.
Without exception, they are all types with outstanding appearance, and the price is naturally a little expensive.
However, Zhang Haohao is not reluctant at all. The person he wants to use must of course look pleasing to the eye.
As for the housekeeper, she didn't see a suitable candidate.
The Spring Festival is coming soon, and she wants to decorate the yard to be more festive. Although she doesn't know if Zhou Chen will have time to go to her place during the New Year, she still wants to decorate it well.
This Spring Festival is the first Spring Festival she has celebrated since she deregistered her citizenship. Celebrating the festival in her own home has extraordinary meaning to her.
As Chi Pan, the head of the Twelve Banks in Bianjing City, he is busy at the end of every year because he has to collect debts.
Since ancient times, it seems to have become a habit to collect debt before the end of the year. Everyone likes to postpone debt until the end, and this period is no exception.
Chi Pan has been asking for debts with his men for several days. He has threatened and quarreled and asked for a lot of debts, but there are still many old debts that are difficult to collect.
Ever since Yong'an Tower became popular, his reputation in Chiyamen has become even more famous, so during this period he was very proud of himself, and even more arrogant when it came to collecting debts.
Chi Pan took the step of not recognizing his relatives, and led He Si and others under him, swaggering through the market, very arrogant.
Perhaps because he got close to the giant Buddha Zhao Pan'er, he is now even more proud and arrogant than before.
"Yameni, yameni, look quickly, look quickly."
He Si, who was nibbling snacks, suddenly stared and looked ahead, then pulled Chi Pan and shouted eagerly.
Chi Pan picked up the folding fan and pointed it at He Si's head: "Look, look, look, what the hell are you talking about? I was shocked."
He Si's fat face was full of grievance: "Yanei, it's Sister Haohao. I saw Sister Haohao."
"Is Zhang Haohao?"
Chi Pan's expression changed. He and Zhang Haohao had not seen or contacted each other for a long time since they broke up that day.
It would have been better not to mention it, but when he mentioned it, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"where?"
Chi Pan shook his head and looked around, and He Si quickly pointed ahead.
