Chapter 1678: Once you enter the Hou family, its as deep as the sea (5)
Listening to the voices of the two girls over there, Jin Qing slowly closed her eyes and "accepted the plot."
Knowing that Jin Qing had calmed down completely, 707 was relieved and immediately sent the plot to Jin Qing.
The world Jin Qing visited this time was an ancient world called the Wei Dynasty.
Jin Qing's client is a young lady from the Huaiyin Hou Mansion named Lan Rushi.
I think back when the country was first founded, the Marquis of Huaiyin was a hereditary and non-replaceable title granted by Emperor Gaozu.
However, because all the Huaiyin Marquises did not know how to engage in camp, they not only gradually lost their right to speak in the court, but also the livelihood of the Marquis Mansion became increasingly difficult.
By now, we have reached the point where we cannot make ends meet. ??
Faced with this situation, the Huaiyin Marquises of all dynasties have been trying to find ways to improve their livelihoods, but they are like the god of poverty possessing them. The harder they work, the more they lose money.
They are obviously watching other people make money in the business, but if they interfere, they will definitely lose everything.
It is a profitable business, but if they join in the fun and want to pay for a share, they will really have to lose their pants.
By the time of Grandpa Lan Ru's generation, even the last village in the family had been sold, and the family was just living at home, relying on the government's salary every month to survive.
This kind of thing, which makes people feel ridiculous when talking about it, actually happened in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.
It wasn't until Lan Ru's father became the Marquis of Huaiyin that things would get a little better.
The reason is that her father married her mother.
Lan Ru's mother's name is Liu Xinmei. Although she is given a weak name, she is very strong.
When she was not married, her mother was a well-known green forest hero.
Whenever the people in the nearby village mentioned her mother's name, they all became frightened and ran away in fear.
Therefore, I still couldn't get married until I was twenty.
And her father Lan Zhe is even more unlucky. The Huaiyin Marquis Mansion is too poor.
I can't find a decent betrothal gift.
No one from a respectable family is willing to marry a girl into the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, for fear of having a bad reputation for treating their daughter harshly.
They are all hanging out in Beijing, and no one can really care about their face even if they look down and don't look up.
There are some people who don't care what outsiders say, but the girl who proposed marriage was really bad, and the old Marquis Huaiyin really looked down on her.
Therefore, Lan Zhe's marriage was delayed, and he was unable to get married until he was twenty-four years old.
But there is always a but.
Just when Lan Zhe thought he was going to die alone, a turning point came.
At that time, the current emperor was just a prince.
While traveling incognito, the prince met an assassin.
Just when he thought his life was about to end, Liu Xinmei fell from the sky.
She fought with the assassin for three hundred rounds with a knife before finally successfully rescuing the prince, and she herself was cut off by the assassin.
Later, the prince was brought back to the village by Liu Xinmei. Originally, the prince thought that Liu Xinmei just wanted to take him to the village to seek help.
After the crisis is resolved, someone will deliver the letter and find someone to escort him back to Beijing.
But who would have thought that Liu Xinmei’s intention was to keep him as the commander-in-chief of the village!
The prince was shocked at the time, and he even began to doubt whether Liu Xinmei's rescue of him was a trap set in the first place.
Not to mention that he already has a main concubine and two side concubines.
Even if his backyard is completely deserted, he can't marry a bandit back home. Wouldn't this be giving him leverage to other brothers?
You can see Liu Xinmei, who is tall and strong, looking very excited.
Son, I think back to her previous murderous appearance.
The prince shrank his neck. This woman risked her hand with a knife to save him. If he said he didn't marry now, would this woman wipe his neck directly?
After struggling for a while, I realized that if I waited any longer, the wedding hall for worshiping heaven and earth would be decorated.
The prince finally calmed down and went to ask Liu Xinmei what she thought of him. As long as he could get rid of the fate of marrying Liu Xinmei, he could change whatever Liu Xinmei thought of him.
And Liu Xinmei’s answer was also quite sincere. The prince is so good-looking!
After knowing the details of the matter, although the prince felt very angry about the answer, he quickly thought of a solution.
Among the powerful circles in the capital, there is a fringe figure who has not been able to get married yet!
After several long talks with Liu Xinmei, the prince finally made Liu Xinmei fully aware of the difference between a wife and a concubine, and successfully sold Lan Zhe.
Anyway, he managed to escape. As for whether Lan Zhe would be bullied after getting married, this was not within his scope of consideration.
As expected, neither Lan Zhe nor his father Lan Tao objected to the prince's arrangement.
After all, the prince's proposal of marriage has already given a huge face to the already marginalized Hou Mansion like theirs, and they must take care of it.
So, after the father and son discussed it, Lan Zhe called a carriage, took his two boxes of betrothal gifts up the mountain, and replaced the prince.
Liu Xinmei is very satisfied with Lan Zhe's appearance, but Lan Zhe is also a down-to-earth person.
Therefore, the married life of two people is not as terrifying as outsiders imagine.
The only regret is that Liu Xinmei did not have a happy life for three years after getting married.
The Wei Dynasty was founded more than 300 years ago, during which time there were ten generations of Huaiyin Marquises.
<
br> No matter how hard you try, each Huaiyin Hou can only get one heir. It can be said that each generation of Huaiyin Hou is a unique seedling that needs to be cared for.
As a result, Liu Xinmei and Lan Zhe embarked on a long journey to find a child.
After unremitting efforts, in the fifth year of their marriage, Liu Xinmei finally became pregnant with her first child, Lan Rushi.
Since this was her first child and Lan Rushi was very big, Liu Xinmei had a difficult delivery.
Although Lan Ru was born in the end, Lan Ru was dull and stupid, and her shortcomings of growing taller but not wiser really made Liu Xinmei worried.
Originally, the Lan family thought that the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion would end its inheritance. Who would have thought that within a few years, Liu Xinmei would become pregnant again.
It's a pity that when she was born, she was a girl again.
However, Liu Xinmei was still not discouraged and still worked hard to survive. Finally, after the third daughter was born, the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion finally welcomed their heir apparent.
Since there were no maids or wives in the family, and the only remaining staff were the brothers brought down from the mountain by Liu Xinmei, Lan Ruyu was brought up by Lan Ruzi herself.
Lan Ruyun was sent directly to the mountain village by Liu Xinmei. Anyway, there were many women on the mountain, and people would watch her wherever she went. On weekdays, she could follow everyone down the mountain to do some "business".
Liu Xinmei grew up like this, so of course she thinks there is no problem raising her children this way.
But she neglected one very important thing: genetic inheritance.
Except for the eldest, Lan Ru, who is tall and thick like her grandfather, the other two daughters all follow Lan Zhe's handsome appearance, and their figures are also soft and frail.
Therefore, Lan Ruyun, who was sent to the mountains, was developed by her grandfather to be a talker. However, she refused to give up and had a bad temper. After being coaxed by her uncles and aunts on the mountain, she suddenly thought that she was the best in martial arts and carried weapons every day.
