Get rich through time travel

Chapter 140 Friends

Shen Ran was completely unaware of the conversation in the carriage. After King Guang's carriage passed by, he took the three girls back. The three of them have been running around with him recently, and they all ran a little wildly.

The family thinks that this is not going to work. Except for Xue Qingrou, the other two girls have to visit each other. Recently, the matchmaker has come to the door very frequently. When they returned, they happened to bump into the matchmaker and twisted their waists to leave. When they left, they rushed towards Xue Qinghe and Xue Qinglian. He raised his eyebrows, as if the matchmaker would definitely be able to explain it.

The two of them immediately became a little anxious, and went to the backyard with their skirts in hand, afraid that they would get married after going out for a while.

Shen Ran and Xue Qingrou walked behind and followed, completely looking like they were enjoying the show. Xue Qingrou also said: "Now I think it's good to have been married. Anyway, no one wants it, so you don't have to be afraid of getting married anymore."

Shen Ran glanced at her in surprise, "Why do you think you won't be able to get married?"

Xue Qingrou said frankly: "I have already been married and had children. No one in the capital would want to marry me, even if there are a few who want to have a relationship with the general's mansion, they only want to marry me." Going back to be a concubine, the daughter of the Xue family will never be a concubine, so no one will want me."

Shen Ran didn't think that she would even think about these things, so she asked: "Then do you still want to get married?"

Xue Qingrou didn't answer, just asked: "Is there any woman who will not marry? Can she not marry?"

Shen Ran replied with certainty: "Yes, yes!"

"Second sister, if you don't want no one to force you to marry, everyone in our family can think about it. You can see that He talks about not wanting to marry every day, and no one says no to her. Look at others, it's because although she yelled fiercely, she still thought about it in her heart. Besides, your elder brother and I married into the Xue family as a man and became the eldest son's official wife. No one in the family said that I would give your elder brother a concubine I didn't say it was wrong for me not to have children."

"Our family is good. We always protect our shortcomings. If you have any thoughts, just say them. We are a family. Everyone will understand and respect you."

"Don't be afraid. There are many good men in this world. Don't stop believing in love just because of Tao Ming. You will meet someone you like in the future. At that time, be brave and don't be afraid of anything."

After Shen Ran finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing. It felt like she was teaching children, not to mention, she felt a sense of accomplishment.

Then she saw a slight smile on Xue Qingrou's face, she was a little relieved, and nodded solemnly to Shen Ran, "I remember, sister-in-law, you are so kind."

"It's said that a sister-in-law is like a mother. Although I'm not a woman, let's be like a father. It's also right to comfort a little girl."

Xue Qingrou giggled, "You must not let my eldest brother know that you are going to be his uncle, and if you know, you will be so angry that you can't get out of bed, sister-in-law."

Shen Ran: "..." I think divorced people can be a little more reserved.

Later, Shen Ran didn't have a thick skin and changed the subject.

When Shen Ran and Xue Qingrou entered the main house in the backyard together, the female members of the Xue family were all there, each holding a scroll, Xue Qinghe and Xue Qinglian were also looking at it, and they seemed to be discussing something while whispering to each other.As soon as Shen Ran and Xue Qingrou appeared, they were pulled over to taste the "beautiful man" portrait together.

That's right, in the Han Dynasty, not only men had to be able to look at women's portraits when choosing wives, but women could also look at men's portraits when choosing husbands for themselves. In a way, it is quite fair.

The matchmaker came to the door mainly to send portraits and introduce the situation.If the woman can fall in love with the man, let the matchmaker tell her. If the two families are interested, they can discuss matters such as marriage proposal.

In a word, in any era, it depends on the face.

It's just that the authenticity of these ancient portraits is too low, and everyone looks about the same. Shen Ran didn't see who looked good and who didn't.

But the Xue family, who are used to seeing these portraits, can tell who is good-looking and who is not, and even look at the face, saying that if the heaven is full, there must be a blessing, which is also very powerful.

Shen Ran turned around, didn't remember a face, and finally approached Mrs. Xue and asked: "These are all sent by the matchmaker just now.

?They are all sons of those families. Have you ever heard about them? How is their conduct? "

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "What are you doing in such a hurry, it must be that the two maids have a crush on him first, and then go to inquire about it. Even this person doesn't like it. What's the use of inquiring about it?"

Shen Ran: "..." Come on, it really is an era of face-to-face.

Shen Ran went to ask Xue Qinghe and Xue Qinglian what they thought, "How is it, is there anyone you like?"

The two girls shook their heads together, "These people are all about the same in appearance, and it's hard to tell whether they are good-looking or not."

Shen Ran felt that he had met a bosom friend, and complained to them in a low voice, "I also think that these people may all find the same painter to paint them. It is said that the painters' portraits are beautified, and real people may not know what they look like. .”

The two girls threw away the portrait in their hands, not to mention looking at it.

"Think about it for yourself if you like it, or ask Dad to bring you two into the palace on the Queen Mother's birthday this time to see the real person. If you like it, come back and say, I will go with your elder brother to find out about your character."

The two girls are not shy people, they thought Shen Ran's proposal was very good, nodded and said: "Then I'll talk to dad later, and I won't look at these portraits." After Xue Qinghe finished speaking, she turned around and went to talk to Mrs. Xue Having said that, I told her not to let the matchmaker come to her door anymore. The portraits that were sent to her door all looked the same, and there were no flowers to be seen.

"I don't know how to be ashamed, and I'm so used to seeing my husband and son-in-law for myself," Mrs. Xue said so, but she also agreed with Xue Qinghe's proposal, and she didn't plan to find a matchmaker anymore.

This incident also made Shen Ran realize that he should expand his circle of friends. If he knew many people, he would know who the young master was like and how the family was, so that he could find a husband for his sister.

Shen Ran did as soon as he thought of it, and took Xiao Shuangzi and Gao Lang to Duan Wang's mansion to find Duan Wang and introduce him to some friends.

After Duan Wang heard Shen Ran's intention, his reaction was a little hard to explain. He sat down opposite Shen Ran, his fan whistling, "Do you think this king seems to have friends?"

Shen Ran: "...Is this something to be proud of? Why do you say it so confidently?"

Of course, Shen Ran also understood through Wang Duan's words why Mr. Duan came to him if he had nothing to do. After all, everyone had no friends.

Duan Wang spread his hands: "Could it be that this king wants to tell you how pitiful this king is, that he doesn't even have a friend?"

URL: Yes?This king is a prince after all, can such words be said? "

To put it simply, this king doesn't want to lose face.

Shen Ran understood in seconds, "Well, why don't we discuss it and meet some people together and make more friends? Go out to drink and eat meat and have company."

Duan Wang sighed, "This king also wants to, but friends are not so easy to find. Although this king is an idle prince, there are quite a few people who flatter me, let's forget it."

"Don't, look at me. I'm a male wife. I think many young masters look down on me, but don't you get along well with me? We have to believe that there are always people in this world who love the rich and the poor. Making friends has nothing to do with your identity, such a person is more real. In this way, you can ask if there is any poetry party, tea party or hunting or something recently. When the time comes, sign up and we will both go, even if you can’t make friends , it’s good to open your eyes.”

Duan Wang snorted twice, as if he had answered the words, but then he reacted, "You are quite courageous, dare to order this king to do things for you."

Shen Ran smiled, "You said you are friends, why are you so polite between friends, and besides, you asked me to work for you, we are even."

King Duan reluctantly accepted the statement, "All right, I will inquire about it, but the fifth one just came to Beijing, and it's the Queen Mother's birthday, so I'm afraid there won't be any poetry meetings for the time being, and we'll have to wait until after these things have passed."

Shen Ran nodded, "It's okay, if it's later, it's later, I hope there will be no troubles in the middle, and the King of Guang will leave as soon as he finishes his birthday, otherwise this poem will not be able to go."

King Duan also knew what King Guang was thinking, and he felt that he was a troublesome person from the bottom of his heart, so he complained with Shen Ran: "You

Speaking of him, I don't know what he was thinking, knowing that he couldn't beat the emperor, but he insisted on tossing, isn't it good to live? "

King Guang is different from King Qi. King Qi suffered too much when he was a child, and his mother's background was not good. All kinds of things left him with a shadow in his heart. Even the rebellion was purely for death.As for King Guang, there is nothing wrong with him, he is good everywhere, and he wants to rebel purely because of his ambition.

Shen Ran also agrees with this very much, "That's right, I know I don't have the ability and I still think about it all day long, but I'm full, I think your brother shouldn't give the back cover, you should directly arrange him Go to the countryside to farm, find a few people to watch him, he can only rely on himself, if he is lazy and doesn't work, he will starve to death, and see if he still has the intention to rebel."

After hearing this, King Duan gave Shen Ran a thumbs up, "Wonderful, do you think I will tell brother Huang that he will agree?"

Shen Ran pressed down his thumb, "It's definitely not good to think about doing this now. This time King Guang's rebellion, either he succeeds, or his head falls to the ground. Your emperor brother will not let him go again."

Duan Wang also thought about it, "Forget it, let the emperor worry about these things, you come with me to see your two puppies, they have grown into big dogs, you don't want to take them back , Is it possible that you don’t want it anymore?”

Duan Wang stared at Shen Ran, thinking that he would turn against him if he dared to say no, Shen Ran really didn't dare to nod.

"I want it, of course I want it. I didn't ask you to bring it to me, but you didn't want it. I have to pick it up myself."

Duan Wang's eyes widened, "Why, is this king rushing to give it to you? Don't forget who begged this king to take the two puppies away."

"It's me, it's me, I was wrong, I will definitely take them away today, and I promise to treat them well after I go back, and never let them suffer!" Shen Ran's attitude was sincere, and he almost swore to God, which made King Duan satisfied .

Duan Wang took Shen Ran to see the dogs. The little puppies had grown into big dogs now, and they were much more lively and active than before. The most important thing was that these dogs did not ignore Shen Ran. Started jumping on him, wagging its tail wildly, looking very happy.

Shen Ran felt that she was comforted, and said to Wang Duan, "I'll take them away now, they are so cute, they are really good dogs."

Duan Wang looked at the dog that kept thumping on him, and said sourly, "Take it away if you say so. I have raised you for you for so long, so why don't you show anything?"

Shen Ran was busy stroking the dog, and only looked up at him, "What do you want to express? You can't ask me for money, you know I'm very poor recently, and it's not a life-threatening thing to ask for money!"

Duan Wang snorted in distaste, "I'm looking for money, is this king the kind of person who would ask people for money? This king just wants to ask you if you have anything to do recently. I've been idle recently. Looking for something to do."

"Oh, that's it. Isn't it the queen mother's birthday recently? Have you prepared your gift?" Shen Ran asked curiously.

"It's the same as in previous years. After all, the queen mother doesn't like us lords, so it's fine to send anything, and it's not the emperor's birthday, so don't bother too much." Duan Wang had a frank face, and the difference in treatment was quite obvious.

"Fine, but I haven't decided what to give yet. I haven't seen the queen mother, so I don't know what she likes." Shen Ran said while stroking the dog.

Duan Wang waved his hand casually: "Women, I like the same things, you just add a little more according to the gift for the emperor's wife, the Queen Mother will definitely like it."

Shen Ran agreed, "Then I'll think about it later."

"You haven't answered my question yet, can you find something to do? I don't have the heart to deal with the fifth child, so I have to find a way to avoid it." Seeing that Shen Ran didn't answer him directly, Duan Wang simply ran over to talk to him. Shen Ran snatched the dog.

The two fought for a while, and finally they were evenly matched. King Duan threatened people with a dog: "If you don't come up with any good ideas, this king won't let you take the dog away. Speaking of which, you said earlier that you would get the dog for this king." Here's a curiosity, where's the thing? Where did it go?"

Shen Ran turned her face away with a guilty conscience, and agreed before, but when there were too many things later, he forgot about it when he got busy, and if Wang Duan hadn't reminded him today, he really couldn't remember it.

But after thinking about it, Shen Ran knew what he could do for Duan Wang.

Taking advantage of King Duan's unpreparedness, Shen Ran snatched the dog to his side and said, "Don't worry, I'll show you something in a few days. When the shopping mall in the west of the city is repaired, we'll build a big entertainment room for you Play enough!"

After Shen Ran finished speaking, she got up and asked the servant who was looking after the dog to get the rope to tie the dog, tied up the two dogs that King Duan gave him, and pulled them away.

King Duan didn't stop him, but said behind his back: "Remember, if the king doesn't see any new gadgets in a few days, this king will personally go to the general's mansion to bring the dog back!"

Shen Ran waved his hand, "Understood, it will definitely satisfy you."

Shen Ran led two dogs, took Xiao Shuangzi and Gao Lang back to the mansion, but just left the Duan Palace, and was stopped by a group of men with weapons within two steps.

The visitor said to Shen Ran: "Mrs. Xue, my master has an invitation, please come with us!"
