The Self-cultivation of the Noble Concubine Who Eats Melon

344 Chapter 345: Relying on someone is worse than relying on yourself

From the Zhichun Palace, there were constant news that the girl from which family had a quarrel with whom, and who had a fight with whom, and gossip happened almost every day.

There are those who are smart enough to not catch the handle, and those who are not scheming enough are caught on the spot by someone setting up a trap, so they don't have to go down and are sent out of the palace directly.

Song Yunzhao only paid attention to two people, one was An Shutong and the other was Xu Mingying.

Xu Mingying is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Wu Xinhou. It seems that Wu Xinhou's family thinks that the marriage between Xu Anxing and Song Qinghan is really unreliable. On the contrary, it made a joke of themselves, so they sent their youngest daughter out to run for election.

Anyway, relying on someone is worse than relying on yourself.

Xu Mingying is much smarter than his brother, and he has not been dragged into the water so far.

Song Yunzhao found it very troublesome, and Yunzhao was not familiar with any of the other beautiful girls, only these two had some issues with her.

With Feng Yi's words, Yun Zhao is not worried at all now, just let go and do it boldly.

Feng Xi is still young, even for the sake of her son, she has to pet him for at least five, six, seven or eight years.

Besides, she and Feng Yi are now in a somewhat different state of mind than before. Song Yunzhao agrees with him on many things, and their temperaments are also very complementary. If they can go on like this, it will be the best up.

However, Yun Zhao didn't dare to bet that her face could not be so youthful and beautiful all her life.

A man's promise, especially an emperor's promise, is like the sound of nature when the love is like a fire, but when the love fades?

Yun Zhao feels that he shouldn't be so pessimistic, but divorce is not allowed in this time and space, so he can only take one step at a time tentatively.

In the final analysis, she is actually a cold person.

She always puts herself first no matter what.

Knowing that the Spring Palace is busy, Concubine Shu would come over to chat with her from time to time, and sometimes she would meet Feng Yunjin and others playing cards with her, so Concubine Shu took advantage of the opportunity to join in.

Song Yunzhao: ...

I always feel that this trend is getting more and more strange.

Wang Zhaorong and Concubine Shu are somewhat at odds. They have fought against each other for many years. Even now, Wang Zhaorong is willing to take a step back because of her lower status, but sometimes Concubine Shu can't speak well. They played cards with Concubine Shu, and chatted with Song Yunzhao by themselves.

Wang Zhaorong is a little worried now that her monthly salary is not enough. After being demoted to Zhaorong, her welfare benefits have dropped significantly, but she still has a lot of things to take care of.

I have a good relationship with Yun Zhao, so I couldn't help complaining to her.

Song Yunzhao had already had an idea in his heart, instead of putting all his thoughts in the harem, it would be better to open his eyes and look outside.

Like making a little money.

Of course, Yun Zhao didn't intend to reveal her affairs at Xie's house, she had other considerations.

"I see that the things you embroider are very delicate, and you also have a lot of experience in rouge and gouache." Song Yunzhao said.

Wang Zhaorong didn't take it seriously, "Which lady doesn't know how to do needlework, that's nothing."

"Rouge gouache is just made by myself to pass the time, so it's nothing."

Song Yunzhao was silent, women earn the most money, think about all kinds of cosmetics in later generations.

"Didn't you tell me that you are not rich?"

Wang Zhaorong sighed, "I never felt that money was not enough before, but now I am stretched everywhere."

The main reason is that in addition to managing the palace, she also needs to save some money for her mother and younger sister. The younger sister has no brains, so she has to prepare some dowry for her to marry off.

Her mother has been an official wife all her life, and now she is a commoner. She also knows that life is difficult, and the dowry also fills the hole in the family. She just wants her to live comfortably.

After going back and forth, her life became tense.

"Who is a big girl or a little daughter-in-law who doesn't have a few boxes of rouge and gouache on the dressing table? Don't look at this thing as small, but the cost is not low. Let's say we use it ourselves. How much is a box of things in this palace?"

Wang Zhaorong thought for a while, and then said: "If you don't say it, it will cost ten taels of silver, right?"

There is no need to buy rouge and gouache in the palace, each palace has its own quota, but the palace ladies have to pay for it themselves, she remembers hearing someone around her say it was so expensive, a box cost ten taels silver.

Palace servants have a box of ten taels of silver, aren't they more valuable?

Song Yunzhao knew this very well, and said to Wang Zhaorong in detail: "The price in the palace cannot be priced."

"Why?" Wang Zhaorong was puzzled.

Song Yunzhao said slowly: "How can this be the same? We use tributes from all over the world. Are you negotiating the price with the tributes?"

Besides, in the Qing Dynasty, the emperor dared to ask dozens of taels of silver for an egg. Although it is not so exaggerated in this time and space, the price in the palace is different from that outside.

The emperor also knew this, but when the water was clear, there would be no fish, so the emperor had to leave some oil and water for them, otherwise, who would give their lives to the emperor?

Wang Zhaorong listened to what Yun Zhao said, and it made sense, "Then what price do you think is outside? I think when I was a girl, I didn't care about these things. It was my mother who bought it for me. Think about it carefully." , I am actually a person who does not know daily necessities.”

Song Yunzhao: ...

It doesn't have to be.

Before any lady gets married, she will not pay attention to these common affairs. Unless the family is not rich, the children will help take care of the house early.

"The price of the rouge gouache outside is basically between two and three taels of silver. If there are better ones, the price will be slightly more expensive, but there are very few more than ten taels of silver. Such things are basically sold. For big families."

Wang Zhaorong understood, it was people like them, but that was a thing of the past, and now their family can't afford it anymore.

"Most of the small rich families buy about a tael of silver, and then the common people spend tens of dollars more. The cost of rouge and gouache is actually not high, but the selling price is not low. The profit here is very large. It is a big deal. Profitable business."

Wang Zhaorong was startled, "How do you know this?"

Of course, Song Yunzhao couldn't say that when she was living hard under the Cai family in the early years, she also thought of ways to make money, but her father found out quickly and saved her from fire and water, so she failed to make this deal.

Besides, as a time-traveler, she can't call the wind and rain like other heroines, but she still has some small skills, but her growth environment didn't give her many opportunities.

She felt that the Empress Dowager would definitely try her best to support An Shutong. At this time, it was necessary to tie Wang Zhaorong tightly to her boat. Favors were too thin, and only benefits were the most reliable.

She is short of money now, and I can make up for this weakness for her.
