Chapter 1409 The affectionate male partner’s wife 27

Although this is her second marriage, An Ran's dowry this time is more than the dowry she received when she got married for the first time.

The reason for this is, firstly, because An Ran saved some money during his one-year stay in the Qing'an Marquis Mansion; secondly, Mrs. Liu was afraid that her daughter's dowry would be small and it would be difficult for her daughter to live in the poor Dingdangxiang Prince's branch of Deqing County. So an additional 10,000 taels of dowry was added to An Ran, so An Ran's dowry this time was almost twice that of when she got married for the first time. For a family like the Liu family, which is just an official and not a wealthy businessman, it is quite a lot, so although It's my second marriage, and it's a very honorable marriage.

Although she was married in a grand manner, when she arrived at Prince Qing's Mansion, An Ran packed some of the more valuable things into boxes and put them in the warehouse, but in fact they put them into the space.

She remembered that Prince Qing dared to steal even Princess Qing's things, but she couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't instigate others to steal his own private house when he had no money to use it. When his warehouse was stolen, it was found out that it was his father-in-law's people who did it. Does she still dare to run up to him and ask for his return? She can't do anything to him, so she can only protect her own things.

Facts have proved that An Ran thought Prince Deqing was good, he was really good, and they had a good relationship after their marriage.

Probably because there was no one to talk to before, of course, there was even less anyone to rely on. His Princess Niangqing couldn't protect herself, let alone protect him, so after An Ran came, he didn't care about big or small things. , always likes to talk to An Ran, sometimes to confide, sometimes to discuss a coping method with An Ran. In short, he obviously regards An Ran as his comrade, and of course, he can also be said to be his pillar.

For such a man, others are probably annoyed by it, or they are angry when they see that the other person does not protect her, but still want to protect him. But An Ran doesn't care. As long as the other person does not cause trouble for her, she thinks that the other person is a good person. companion.

Moreover, the people in Prince Deqing’s courtyard are also clean.

Before An Ran came, the princess had given two wives to Prince Deqing, but after getting engaged to An Ran, he sent them a generous dowry and asked them to leave, so now they are the only ones in the house, no one else.

It's not that Prince Deqing likes An Ran so much that he wants to send everyone away for her. People of this era don't have this awareness. There is no conflict in their values ​​between liking one person and having three wives and four concubines.

The reason why he sent the people away was because he told An Ran: "There are too many women in the backyard, which is easy to cause trouble. They argue all day long, and my head is going to explode. I want to be quiet, so I send the people away. It's just the two of us who can relax, I'm really afraid of the commotion, I've seen enough of my father's backyard."

Prince Deqing was right. His father's backyard was really messy.

But he said that although Prince Deqing was good, Prince Qing's Mansion was indeed a mess, as An Ran knew before.

The father of Prince Deqing, Prince Qing, had a very chaotic life style. There were many concubines in the mansion, and they were all interested in them, no matter how fragrant or smelly they were, even young widows, prostitutes from brothels, and even married women. , all pulled into the room. There are twenty-eight places for the princess's concubines, which is already a lot. If they are all filled up, they are still not satisfied. There are still a bunch of concubines without titles, plus their children and servants. , there are so many people talking, and the chaos is so suffocating.

Although the clan was rich and free, and was not allowed to participate in political affairs. Many people's lives were a little wild and unruly when they were busy. However, it was rare for people to be as chaotic as King Qing.

Because of the large number of people, Prince Deqing not only did not have a palace, he did not even have a separate courtyard. King Qing said that he was not married yet and could not afford a courtyard by himself.

Fortunately, he is married now, so he and An Ran have a separate yard, and they don't have to share it with other brothers, so it is quieter.

The brother who shared the same courtyard with him before was born to a concubine. The concubine's mother-in-law had too many families, so she would come over to see his brother from time to time. And because he shared the same courtyard with him, those people naturally He could also see him, so many female relatives wanted to seduce him. After all, he was a county king. Although He Sanniang didn't like him, that was because she was the granddaughter of a third-rank official, and the concubine's The conditions of his natal family are not so good. For a county prince like him, the girl from his natal family will naturally be attracted to him, so it is normal for someone to have an interest in him.

Although it was normal, Prince Deqing couldn't stand this normality, because even if he was annoyed by them, he still had to worry about being plotted by them and relied on by them.

So, he was in a hurry to get married. After getting married, he now had his own yard and finally no longer had to be stared at by a group of women who just wanted to marry him and make a fortune.

He doesn't hate women, but he hates being pestered by women he's not interested in. He's not like his father, who can accept any woman as long as he has a decent face. But he can't. He doesn't feel like a woman with a personality that doesn't suit him, no matter how handsome he is. It's passable, but he doesn't want to come into contact with it.

"... It is said that after we get married, we can live in separate houses. I am applying to my father, hoping that I can be let out. When we go to our own place, we will not have these worries." I'm afraid An Ran will dislike this. There are too many people around and the relationship is too complicated, Prince Deqing said.

"Then does your father agree?" An Ran asked.

Actually, I'm not very confident.

Previously, because of the large number of people in Prince Qing's Mansion, he was afraid that there would be too many people in the mansion. This was indeed the rule.

After all, once she gets married, the woman will bring a lot of dowry and servants, and then when she gives birth to a child, she will have servants to serve her, plus the concubine and the servants to serve the concubine, the number of people is simply explosive. Growth, so once you get married, you must send her out of the palace immediately to prevent the population from growing exponentially and there will be too many people for the palace to accommodate.

But according to the news she heard in the past few days, the expenses of Prince Qing's Mansion were too high, and Prince Qing was reluctant to let go of the man with the highest title, and planned to stay in the mansion to harvest wool. In this way, even if Prince Deqing got married, Prince Qing would It's hard to say if he won't agree to him leaving the government. After all, the salary and official land income of the county prince are the highest besides his eldest brother Wang Shizi. King Qing is willing to let such a person who can bring thousands of taels of income to the government a year. It would be strange if the fat sheep left.

Sure enough, upon hearing An Ran's question, King Deqing shook his head regretfully and said, "My father said we will wait for a while. He is busy now and has no time to worry about my branch office."

"..." An Ran was speechless, thinking to himself that this was obviously just perfunctory. He didn't want to let Prince Deqing go. Why didn't he have time to worry about the affairs of Prince Deqing's branch house? What did he need to worry about? He didn't just agree to the division of Prince Deqing. Can Prince Deqing just move to his mansion? Doesn’t he have any property that can be distributed to Prince Deqing? As for the place to live, anyway, Prince Deqing’s mansion had issued it as early as when Prince Deqing was fifteen years old. Yes, you don’t have to worry about having a place to live.
