Chapter 274 Qiu Yan’s Touch
"Liang Yi?"
Qiu Yan was stunned at first, but then she figured it out: "You don't want to marry Liang Yi?"
Qiu Min nodded.
She doesn't like Liang Yi.
"The matter between you and Liang Yi was arranged by Concubine Guo. If you want to refuse, it may not be easy." Qiu Yan said.
Although Concubine Guo is not Emperor Cheng Zhao, she is not something that the Qiu family can refuse if they want.
"I……"
"Qiu Min, do you fall in love with someone else?" Qiu Yan didn't know what to do when she saw Qiu Min's face.
"No, no..." Qiu Min shook his head, not wanting to admit it.
"Really?" Qiu Yan asked.
"I think my cousin is pretty good." Qiu Min whispered.
"Cousin..." Qiu Yan fell silent.
The cousin is Qin Xuan.
She had a crush on Qin Xuan before, but unfortunately, she married Jiang Chen without expressing it or having a deeper crush.
Now thinking of Qin Xuan, Qiu Yan suddenly realized that although she had not completely forgotten him, the figure had faded.
"This matter is really a difficult problem..." Qiu Yan didn't know how to answer.
If she knew Qiu Min also liked Qin Xuan before getting married to Jiang Chen, she would definitely fight for it, but now she is also thinking about Qiu Min.
After all, it is impossible for him and Qin Xuan.
Qiu Min likes Qin Xuan, why not help her?
"Let's not talk about it anymore, Second Sister, you don't know, but fake banknotes have appeared in the house recently," Qiu Min said.
"Fake banknotes?" Qiu Yan was stunned. The Qiu family is a big family and has a lot of expenses. If there were just one or two fake banknotes, Qiu Min might not be able to know about the fake banknotes due to his identity.
Now that Qiu Min knows about this, it is obvious that there are many fake banknotes.
"Well, now we have to pay three thousand taels of silver notes. My father collected the money and only had five or six hundred taels. The rest needs to be collected by the third and fourth uncles. But the third and fourth uncles don't have any money. Grandma feels that only The farm can be sold." Qiu Min nodded.
"Three thousand taels?" Qiu Yan was a little dazed.
More than three thousand taels?
a lot of.
Before, in her eyes, three thousand taels was an astronomical figure.
However, when Jiang Chen asked Luo Shiniang and her to take charge, he immediately took out one hundred thousand taels. Later, when he wanted to purchase goods, he took out another hundred thousand taels.
She didn't know how much money Jiang Chen had, but three thousand taels was relatively small.
Now that the Qiu family is such a big family, they are actually worried about three thousand taels?
At this time, Qiu Yan didn't know that if it weren't for Jiang Chen's appearance, she would have made the decision on her own to fight for the marriage because of the fake banknotes.
"Yes." Qiu Min nodded: "Three thousand taels is too much."
Qiu Yan hesitated and said, "Qiu Min, come with me to see your brother-in-law."
"Second sister, what are you..."
Qiu Min did not speak, but walked towards the teahouse in front.
…
At this time, Jiang Chen was drinking tea at a window seat in the teahouse.
Seeing Qiu Yan, Qiu Min and the others coming over, he quickly asked them to sit down.
"Husband, I want to go home." Qiu Yan said.
"Okay." Jiang Chen had been to Qiu's house before when he returned home, but he didn't stay too long. After all, according to the customs of the Song Dynasty, when the concubine returned home, he already attached great importance to the Qiu family by following her.
"Husband..." Qiu Yan hesitated and told Jiang Chen about the fake banknotes.
"Fake banknotes?"
Jiang Chen remembered the plot of the play, but he didn't say much. He just asked Qiu Yan, "What do you want to do?"
"If I can, I want to help... But don't worry, husband, I only use my own money." Qiu Yan was afraid that Jiang Chen would misunderstand, so she quickly explained.
"Are you rich?" Jiang Chen knew that although Qiu Yan was his concubine, her monthly salary was only twelve taels. This was raised by Jiang Chen when Luo Shiniang and Qiu Yan set the monthly salary.
According to Luo Shiniang or Qiu Yan, the monthly salary of the concubines of their Luo family and Qiu family is only five taels.
Qiu Yan has only been married to him for a few days now, how can she have money?
Unless dowry is used.
But can Qiu Yan’s dowry be so large?
"I……"
"It's inappropriate to take money." Jiang Chen said.
The Qiu family is a big family. Now that Qiu Yan, a concubine, is asked to take money to make up for the shortfall, does the Qiu family lose face?
Maybe for the Qiu family, this is a humiliation to them.
Qiu Yan was stunned and immediately figured out the reason.
"But I have a way..." Jiang Chen said.
"What can you do, husband?" Qiu Yan asked.
"You guys go shopping first. I'll look for you in half an hour. Now I'm going to investigate something first." Jiang Chen said.
"good."
Qiu Yan nodded and took Qiu Min to go shopping.
After leaving the teahouse, Qiu Min looked at Qiu Yan: "Second sister, does he really have a way?"
"Don't worry." Qiu Yan nodded, not doubting Jiang Chen's words: "Let's go to the bookstore in front to read some books first."
"Okay." Qiu Min nodded.
Walking into the bookstore, Qiu Yan remembered that she wanted to read a novel before, so she asked the waiter.
"Madam, that book has been bought." The waiter is also a smart person. He knew that Qiu Yan was married when he saw Qiu Yan's bun.
"Bought it?" Qiu Yan was a little confused when she heard this.
"Qiu Yan, Qiu Min."
At this time, a voice sounded.
"cousin."
Qiu Min looked stunned when he saw Qin Xuan.
"Cousin." Qiu Yan didn't expect to see Qin Xuan here, but she still bowed calmly.
"I didn't expect to see you here..." Qin Xuan's eyes swept over Qiu Yan, especially when his eyes fell on Qiu Yan's bun, he felt bitter in his heart.
There is nothing more painful than watching your woman marry someone else.
It's a pity that although he is the second son of the British prince, he can't change all this.
"Cousin, are you here to buy books?" Qiu Yan asked.
"Yes, I just bought this book." Qin Xuan nodded.
"It turns out that this book was bought by my cousin." Qiu Yan felt a little pity.
"Qiu Yan, if you want it, how about I give it to you?" Qin Xuan said.
"Thank you, cousin, but I can't accept it." Qiu Yan refused. Although she is a cousin, she is also a man. She cannot accept something from a man, not to mention that she once liked this man a little.
"I was the one who was abrupt." Qin Xuan reacted.
"Cousin, why are you here?" Qiu Min likes Qin Xuan. If Qiu Yan is not married, she might think that Qiu Yan will be a threat to her, but now she will not use Qiu Yan as a threat at all , so I don’t think there will be anything between Qin Xuan and Qiu Yan.
"I'm here to buy books..."
Qin Xuan started chatting with the Qiu sisters.
About half an hour later, Jiang Chen walked into the bookstore.
"Qiu Yan, you are really here."
"Husband."
Qiu Yan heard the sound and hurriedly rushed forward.
"Second brother-in-law." Qiu Min called.
"Master Jiang." Qin Xuan also saw Jiang Chen.
Although Jiang Chen snatched Qiu Yan from him, he had a good relationship with Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen didn't know that he liked Qiu Yan, so when facing Jiang Chen, he couldn't get angry.
"So it's Young Master Qin." Jiang Chen greeted Qin Xuan with a smile.
"Husband, my cousin was here when we came just now." Qiu Yan explained.
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, and then said to Qiu Min: "Qiu Min, come with me."
"I?"
Qiu Min was stunned, but still followed Jiang Chen out of the bookstore.
"Qiu Yan, this is..." Qin Xuan looked at Qiu Yan.
Now that Jiang Chen has married Qiu Yan, is he still related to Qiu Min?
"My husband has something to do with Qiu Min." Qiu Yan didn't say much.
After a while, Jiang Chen and Qiu Min walked into the bookstore.
"Second sister, I will go back first." Qiu Min said to Qiu Yan.
When Qiu Yan saw the smile in Qiu Min's eyes, she knew what Jiang Chen must have confessed just now, and nodded immediately.
After Qiu Min left, Jiang Chen and Qiu Yan also said goodbye to Qin Xuan.
"Mr. Jiang, this book is for you." Qin Xuan handed a book to Jiang Chen.
"Book?"
Jiang Chen's heart moved, he glanced at Qiu Yan next to him, and took the book handed to him by Qin Xuan with a smile: "Then I will thank Mr. Qin."
After leaving the bookstore and getting on the carriage, Qiu Yan looked at Jiang Chen and hesitated to speak.
"Take it." Jiang Chen handed the book to Qiu Yan.
"Husband?" Qiu Yan looked at Jiang Chen.
"It's just a book. Qin Xuan is your cousin and will only be your cousin. You don't need to care." Jiang Chen said with a smile: "At the Hammer Pill Meeting, I could see that Qin Xuan was interested in Qin Xuan. You're interesting, but our identity wasn't finalized at that time, so it's understandable that he has his own ideas. I won't be fussy about this."
"Husband, my cousin and I really have nothing to do with each other." Qiu Yan said quickly.
"I know." Jiang Chen took Qiu Yan's hand and said, "If we treat each other sincerely, we should trust each other."
Just a book.
In the first world of film and television integration, it would not be a thing at all.
However, Jiang Chen also understood Qiu Yan's worries.
In this era, once a woman is suspected by her husband, the best result is to be alone for the rest of her life.
But is Jiang Chen such a person?
no.
Jiang Chen is definitely not such a person.
"Husband, you are so kind." Qiu Yan was so moved.
She was just worried that Qin Xuan's incident would affect her relationship with Jiang Chen, but she didn't expect that Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously at all.
No, it's not that Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously, but that Jiang Chen believed her.
What is more important to a woman than a man trusting her?
"Fool, you are my woman, don't I still trust you?" Jiang Chen smiled. He could even handle the woman in the first film and television fusion world. Is it possible that in this second film and television fusion world? Can't you handle Qiu Yan and the others?
If the two of them hadn't gotten married, it might have been a little difficult.
But now that Emperor Cheng Zhao has granted marriage, the relationship between the two has become a foregone conclusion, and it is easy to win Qiu Yan's heart.
"Husband, actually there is one more thing I haven't told you." Qiu Yan said.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chen asked.
"I was rescued when I was young. The person who rescued me gave me a folding fan, and this person was Liang Yi." Qiu Yan said.
"Folding fan? Liang Yi?"
Jiang Chen was stunned.
He didn't expect Qiu Yan to even tell him such a thing.
It seems that I really have no reservations about him.
"Yes, it's him, but I don't have any feelings for him..."
Qiu Yan wanted to say something else, but she was pulled into Jiang Chen's arms.
"Do you think I will still doubt you and Liang Yi? You look down on me too much." Jiang Chen hugged Qiu Yan tightly and said, "In the future, don't you want to know? I'm not the kind of unreasonable person. people."
"Yeah." Qiu Yan nodded.
"That's right." Jiang Chen kissed Qiu Yan.
"Husband, don't do this in the carriage..." Qiu Yan buried her head in Jiang Chen's arms.
Jiang Chen smiled.
What about in the carriage?
In the first world of film and television integration, when he, Jiang Nansun, and Shi Yi were together, they kissed in public.
However, he also knew that the two worlds were different, so he didn't go too far.
Back at Jingxiu Villa, Jiang Chen saw a military camp appearing next to the villa.
"Husband, what's going on?" Qiu Yan was startled.
"It's the guards." Jiang Chen didn't expect that these five hundred guards would come today.
"Guards?"
"Yes, they are escorting us when we go to Yang Country." Jiang Chen didn't explain much. After letting Qiu Yan return to Jingxiu Villa, he went to the escort barracks.
"Yong'an County Lord."
A tough man came out.
This tough man's name is Zhang Hu. He is the captain of the escort army and the leader of the five hundred escort army.
"Colonel Zhang."
Jiang Chen met Zhang Hu last time.
Unlike the five hundred guards, this tiger was arranged by Qin Siyuan.
Although Qin Siyuan arranged it through Yongchang Hou, Jiang Chen had to suspect that Zhang Hu was Qin Siyuan's man.
Or Zhang Hu was a member of Emperor Cheng Zhao.
"Captain Zhang, we are going to Yang Country next. There are many dangers in Yang Country, so I am going to let my guards train with you." Jiang Chen directly stated his purpose.
"Yong'an County Duke..."
"Colonel Zhang, you'd better call me by my name." Jiang Chen interrupted Zhang Hu and said, "Also, does Captain Zhang have any objections to my arrangement? Didn't the superiors ask you to listen to me?"
"This..." Zhang Hu frowned.
"This matter is settled. After all, we must cooperate sincerely in the future. How can we cooperate if there is a barrier to training together?" Jiang Chen said.
"This, okay..." Zhang Hu couldn't refuse.
At the moment, Jiang Chen introduced Wu Shiyi, who was wearing a mask, to Zhang Hu.
The mask Wu Shiyi wears is a very ferocious mask.
Jiang Chen made such an arrangement to allow Wu Shiyi to better integrate into the guard army.
"Captain Zhang, we will set off in a few days. What else does the escort have to prepare now?" Jiang Chen asked.
"We only have ten days of food and grass," Zhang Hu said.
"Ten days? We have arrived at Luoyang Mansion in ten days. Can't we get food and grass in Luoyang Mansion?" Jiang Chen was stunned when he heard this.
The guards are not ordinary people. One person needs at least four kilograms of food a day, and five hundred people need two thousand kilograms. Plus horses, donkeys, etc., the daily consumption is almost ten stones.
This is just food.
If you add other nutritious foods, this consumption will more than double.
Jiang Chen thought that the Song State was responsible for these food and grass expenses, but now it seems that he is overthinking.
"Mr. Yong'an County, after leaving Kaifeng Mansion, we will be your personal guards, so you have to solve problems such as food and grass by yourself." Zhang Hu replied.
"Is this what Mr. Qin meant?" Jiang Chen reacted. However, he was not unhappy or dissatisfied, but was infinitely surprised.
