Daily life of a co-wife
Chapter 17: A Woman's Greatest Support
After the tea ceremony was over, Su Qingmo returned to his room.
Compared to the courtyard of Ningguo Marquis's mansion, the courtyard of Anguo Marquis's mansion is much larger.
Although she is just a co-wife, there will only be one young lady in the Anguo Marquis's Mansion.
There will be no concubines in the future.
Her status as a young lady is honorable.
Even though Lady Anguohou didn't like her very much.
But smart people know what Su Qingmo's status will be in the Anguo Marquis Mansion in the future.
"Young Madam, all the dowry has been placed in Madam's yard." Nanny Ding discovered some bad news.
After the dowry was delivered to the Anguo Marquis' Mansion, it directly became the mansion's property.
This issue……
"Nothing, these things are never important."
Su Qingmo had already expected this result.
Su Qingmo was calm.
But the girl next to him was not calm.
“They were too anxious.
Even though we have already agreed that the dowry land will be returned to the public, we still have to wait for you to come back."
Does the wife of the Marquis of Anguo owe their young lady some respect?
Su Qingmo still didn't care.
"What's this?
If you hadn't taken my dowry, you might not have been able to make ends meet."
The situation of the Ningguo Marquis Mansion is similar to that of the Anguo Marquis Mansion.
When she was at the Ningguo Marquis's mansion, she already knew about their expenses.
Even though they have many people in their house, they don't have much property.
Even though he received some rewards when he was conferred the title of Marquis, he had no property and his capital would be depleted sooner or later.
If you don't find another way out, life will become increasingly difficult in the future.
"Young Madam, you must keep the property in your hands well hidden," said Madam Ding.
The madam snatched away those things from before.
They must have also thought that their young lady still had some things in her hands.
"Mammy, are there still some people on the farm where I came as a dowry?" Su Qingmo asked.
It doesn't seem appropriate for her to make any big moves right now.
When she first arrived at the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, she didn't have many people available.
Although her mother prepared some people.
But these people were just bought.
The Su family had just moved to the capital, and their mother didn't have much manpower.
"There are some people on the farm, but the only ones who followed Madam to the An family are Aunt Niu and her family."
"As for Aunt Niu and the others, they will be assigned to work as servants in the courtyard.
As for Uncle Niu, we will prepare a carriage and let him drive it.
Later, you can select more people and send them to the village.
We need to train our own people so that we can take over my business." Su Qingmo said.
Ok……
As a monk from modern times, she may not be able to manage the ancient people's harem well.
But it's okay.
There are no men in the Anguohou Mansion.
Without men, it would be easier to manage.
The population of their house is simple.
No matter how many concubines Marquis Anguo had, in her generation, she was the only co-wife.
Compared to the Ningguo Queen's Mansion, she would feel more comfortable in the Anguo Marquis' Mansion.
“Madam, there are still some people on the other end.
The young lady can ask the lady for the person, and then return the person after he has been trained.
Also, because there is no male master in the mansion, the young lady is subject to restrictions when she goes out.
The young lady can interact with Young Master Zhengwei.
Because the young master is registered under Madam's name, he is the person closest to you besides Madam." Madam Ding said.
The young master she was talking about was the third young master of the Su family.
The madam had no legitimate son, so after the third young master's biological mother passed away, he was registered under the madam's name.
In the Su Mansion, she is the person with the highest status except for their young lady.
"It's because I'm not cut out for business."
When it comes to this younger brother, Su Qingmo only has this impression.
Their Su family started out as merchants, but her brother doesn't know how to do business.
Just based on this point, he was one step behind others.
Mr. Su values his son who is good at business.
"What we need is Young Master Zhengwei's reputation. It doesn't matter whether he can do business or not." Nanny Ding explained.
Su Qingmo understood.
“I heard that the best academy in the capital is the Imperial Academy.
But not everyone can study in the Imperial College.
Send someone to inquire and see how to get the person in."
Her brother is actually a scholar, and this fact can be put to good use.
As for his talent for studying, these can be changed.
If the Su family is just a merchant, the help they can provide to her in the future will be limited.
Whether in ancient times or modern times, there should be some commonalities.
This woman's biggest supporter.
Apart from the love of the husband, the support should be from the parents' family.
“There are three vacancies in the Anguo Marquis’s Mansion, and I don’t know how Madam has handled these vacancies.
Madam, since the Anguo Marquis's residence wants your dowry, you can make a request to them."
This ginger is indeed spicy when it is old.
Nanny Ding had already found out.
Anyone who lives in the capital for a long time will discover rules like these.
Although she has only been in the capital for a short time.
But who can make her a qualified nanny?
"There's no time to lose. It's best to tell my mother-in-law right now." Su Qingmo said.
If I say, this quota is a good thing.
Then I’m afraid that no good things can be kept in the Anguo Marquis’ Mansion.
During dinner, Su Qingmo came early.
When the daughter-in-law asked for a meeting, Lady Anguohou opened the bridge and invited her in.
"Mother, I heard that there is a quota for students to study at the Imperial Academy in our house.
I have a younger brother who is a good student, so please give me this place." Su Qingmo said it straight away when he arrived.
Upon hearing about this quota, Lady Anguohou's brows furrowed.
Probably no one would like someone who asks for favors from her husband's family right after entering the family.
"I have already made arrangements regarding the quota."
"Mother, my daughter-in-law's dowry has all been sent to the Marquis of Anguo's mansion.
Now my daughter-in-law just wants a place. It would be unreasonable if you don’t give it to her.
What will people outside say about our Anguo Marquis Mansion then?
If the quota is given to me, then… there will be an explanation outside.”
Ah!
She thought that no matter which era people were from, they all wanted to save face.
After hearing what Su Qingmo said, Lady Anguohou's brows furrowed even more tightly.
She had to care about reputation.
“I can’t give it to you for free.
I was originally planning to give the spot to Changan."
"A girl in Chang'an is about to get married. Why does she want this quota?" Su Qingmo asked this question even though she knew the answer.
This quota is the confidence for Gu Changan to get married.
It is difficult for the Gu family to find a good in-law.
But if she could get a place in the Imperial College as a dowry, it would increase her confidence.
Does Lady Anguohou have the nerve to talk about this?
"Why do you care what she uses it for? I have my own plans."
"I heard that we have three vacancies in our house, and now I only need one.
The daughter-in-law thought that between this quota and reputation, reputation should be more important.
What does mother think?
Well, the wife of Marquis Anguo has been caught.
"You can ask for a quota, but it costs two hundred thousand taels of silver each." Of course, it is impossible to give a quota away for free.
