Chapter 97 The Marquis's Commoner Wife 7
Ning Yan cried sadly, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it..."

The next second, Ning Yan's mouth was blocked and she was put on the bed. The two of them didn't even have dinner and they tossed and turned the whole night.

Ning Yan was so tired that she didn't even have the strength to speak.

A certain marquis, having eaten and drunk his fill, went to court in a good mood.

There are only three days of vacation for the newlyweds, and after the vacation, you have to work hard for the emperor.

……

No one knew what the old lady had said to her parents’ family, but Chu Yingying was carried into the mansion in a sedan chair on the fifth day after Ning Yan’s marriage. She was also arranged to stay in the Wutong Courtyard, which was closest to the study in the front yard.

Ning Yan curled her lips. Was this an attempt to lure Han Yongjin, the golden phoenix, over?

She wanted to see what her good husband would do.

That day, as soon as Han Yongjin entered the court, he saw his cousin guarding the second gate.

"Hello, cousin. You have worked hard. I have prepared chicken soup in my courtyard. Please come and try it."

Han Yongjin: ...try the chicken soup? Sorry, I can't taste any of it.

If he really dared to enter his cousin's yard, who knows how uncomfortable that little woman would be.
The most important thing is that she really won't let you into the house.

For the sake of his own harmonious nightlife in the future, he should try to keep a distance from his cousin.

No, not keep distance, but avoid contact!

"Drink it yourself. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first..."

Chu Yingying, who was still waiting for her cousin to come to her courtyard tonight: ... Today is her first day in the mansion. Even if her cousin doesn't want to consummate the marriage with her, can't he just sit in her room? Why is her cousin so cruel to her?
Chu Yingying completely forgot that when she first learned that Han Yongjin was going to marry a country girl, she immediately ran to the Marquis' Mansion to ask her cousin why he couldn't marry her?
Han Yongjin's answer was that if possible, he only wanted to marry Ning Yan in his life, and advised his cousin to find a good man as soon as possible and not to be obsessed with her.

But Chu Yingying kept saying that he was the only one in her heart, and she would be willing to marry him as a concubine as long as she could enter the Marquis' Mansion.

Han Yongjin just thought that she was stubborn and said on the spot: If my cousin doesn't mind being a widow for the rest of her life, then I have nothing to say.

Now, Chu Yingying really married into the mansion against his advice. Han Yongjin would not feel that he owed his cousin anything by leaving her alone. It was all her own fault.

In the main courtyard, Qiu Sheng had already reported to Ning Yan what happened at the second gate, so when Han Yong walked in, he clearly felt that his young lady was in a good mood.

He was slightly happy in his heart. It was good that the madam was happy. If the madam was happy, he wouldn't have to worry about being locked out by the madam.

"Madam, is everything okay at home today?"

Ning Yan said proudly: "I went out today and bought a lot of good things, my husband, please take a look."

Qiu Sheng had already brought out all the things his wife had bought today and placed them on the table.

Ning Yan picked up the smallest box and opened it, revealing a pair of heart-shaped pendants.

"The shopkeeper said that this pair of jade pendants is called the Tongxin pendant, and the wearer will be forever in love. I want to be in love with my husband forever, so I bought them. However, the jade pendants are too expensive, and it hurts my heart to pay for them!"

Han Yongjin reached out and took out the jade pendant and played with it in his palm, "Oh, how much silver did it cost?"

Ning Yan carefully extended two fingers, staring at the man, fearing that he would be scared by the price.

"Two thousand taels of silver?"

Ning Yan nodded slightly.

"It's not expensive. The material of this jade pendant is top-notch. Two thousand taels is a fair price. Madam has good taste." He was telling the truth, and he didn't just flatter the little woman.

Ning Yan thought to herself: After all, she has lived in so many worlds and has seen all kinds of good things. Isn't it normal for her to have good vision?
Han Yongjin separated the two jade pendants, put one on Ning Yan himself, and held Ning Yan's hand to put the other around his neck, "From now on, your husband will wear this jade pendant every day and will never take it off.

Yan'er wants to do the same."

Ning Yan nodded obediently, "I'll listen to my husband."

Then she continued to introduce the following items, which were basically all bought for the couple, but the prices were very expensive. After she finished speaking, she carefully looked at the man's face, "Will my husband dislike me for spending too much money? I spent more than four thousand taels of silver today alone."

Han Yongjin laughed heartily, "Yan'er, this is just the beginning. I gave you the banknotes so that you can spend them. When you have spent them, I will give you more."

Their ancestors served in the army, and since they have always been royalists, they have not joined any political party. Therefore, even if the emperor changes frequently, nothing has ever happened in the mansion.

The Han family has had a small population for several generations and cannot consume much, so the wealth they have accumulated is absolutely unimaginable to others.

The little money the young lady spent is just the beginning.

The Han family is small in number but has always been trusted by the royal family because each head of the family does not participate in factional struggles, does not take sides, and is particularly tactful.

Especially in his generation, he took the initiative to ask to marry a peasant girl. The emperor must have been very satisfied with him.

Today the emperor invited him to have lunch in the palace. During the meal, he calmly told the emperor about being forced by his mother to take a concubine. The emperor comforted him and even taught him his way of doting on his wife, which benefited Han Yongjin a lot.

"Gale, go get the mahogany box in the study."

Liefeng took the order and left.

Soon, the box was taken back and handed to Ning Yan, "Open it and take a look."

Ning Yan opened the box and saw a box full of silver bills.

"Why are there so many banknotes here?"

"Not much, only 100,000 taels in total. It just looks like a lot, but they are all small denomination notes, which are kept for my wife to take out on the street. Carrying silver is too tiring.

When you have used up all the flowers, I will ask Liefeng to help you get more."

Ning Yan: She admitted that she was tricked by the old man in this round.

When the two got married, the betrothal gift included 88 loads of dowry and 6 taels of silver.

The dowry was also prepared by Han Yongjin, and the dowry amounted to 60,000 taels of silver.

It’s not that Han Yongjin doesn’t want to give more, but he wants to avoid attracting attention.

As the saying goes, "To serve the emperor is like serving a tiger." He may be a confidant one moment, and the next moment the emperor would want him to have his property confiscated and his family exterminated. If his Han family wants to survive forever, he must be careful in everything. He cannot be too low-key, but he definitely cannot be too high-profile, or else he will be struck by lightning if he pretends to be cool.

It's different in private. He can give his wife money however he wants. No matter how much a little woman can go shopping, how much can she spend?
He opened his heart and let her spend as long as she could be happy every day.

"My husband is so good to me." My lord, please look at my sincere eyes. What I said is true.

"To receive a compliment from Madam, my heart feels as sweet as honey. I will serve you well tonight."

It turns out that my lady still loves me. The way she looks at me is full of love. I will never let my lady down in this life!
