Chapter 191 Melon God is online
Tian Xiaoxiao: [In fact, the painter created the greatest value while alive, so why didn’t his woman save him? ]
Daju: [Nonsense, if the painter dies, the painting will be out of print, and a painting can be sold for a hundred or a thousand taels of gold.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [How many paintings can a short-lived painter create in his lifetime? ]
Daju: [According to incomplete statistics, there are a thousand! ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Just ignore what I said before. ]
Daju: [Hey, is seafood allergy really that serious? There is no cure! ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Of course! In the time and space I was in before, there was a great poet who died from eating fish, a type of sea bream. He hosted a banquet to see off his friends and ate the fish himself. The seafood allergy aggravated the tumor on his back and he died.]
Daju: [It seems that abstaining from certain foods is a more scientific way of saying it. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Not every one of the thousand paintings can be sold for hundreds or thousands of taels of gold. The women of the painters are short-sighted.]
Daju: [That’s not my business.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Give me a few more melons. We will be going back to Shengjing tomorrow. I miss my daddy.]
Daju: [Tailor Shen revealed his true colors at home last night, and frightened Doctor Fengzhi to death.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [This is a really explosive story! What about her son? ]
Daju: [Her son witnessed everything and went crazy, breaking the restrictions in his body. Now he has turned into a small fish and refuses to come out of their pond.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I have a question.]
Daju: [Ask.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Tailor Shen is a fish demon. He killed so many people. Isn't there any punishment from heaven? ]
Daju: [She is not a local fairy, and is not subject to the jurisdiction of the heavenly laws here. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Is there no one to teach her a lesson? Just let her kill people at will?]
Daju: [Everyone she killed was not killed by mistake. They were all guilty to some extent.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Is Tailor Shen acting on behalf of heaven? ]
Daju: [I guess so! Everything is set, and we can't force others to change their fate, right? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Why are we interfering in Nangong Rui's fate again? ]
Daju: [He is the destined emperor. We will help him clear the obstacles, but he can ascend the throne within three years on his own.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [What kind of person is the future Crown Princess Li? ]
Daju: [A noble lady from an aristocratic family, her words and deeds are of course first-rate, but Li is jealous. If Nangong Rui has few concubines in the harem, everything will be fine. But if there are too many concubines, trouble will come.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Aren’t noble families afraid of imperial power? ]
Daju: [The Mingning Kingdom has been established for hundreds of years. The aristocratic families have done a lot of harm, but they found that they could not shake the throne of the Nangong family. Only when they came to Nangong Rui did they give in. Otherwise, they would never have married into the Nangong family. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It is said that Li Yuheng and Nangong Rui fell in love with each other, so they have feelings for each other, and their future life as empress should not be too difficult.]
Daju: [What they value in each other is only the status and power behind each other. If you enter the royal family and talk about love, you will only get hurt in the end. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It seems that Li Yuheng is a smart girl. ]
Daju: [The Li family plans to send a legitimate daughter from a branch family to the palace to assist Li Yuheng. How do you think Li Yuheng will respond? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Isn't the Li family too impatient? ]
Daju: [They are eager to win in this competition. Otherwise, if Nangong Rui ascends the throne, other families will stuff people into Nangong Rui's lap, and the Li family's position will be lost.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [In ancient times, women got married for the sake of their family. How sad and lamentable. Let's eat something else.]
Daju: [There are also women who are smart and monopolize their husband’s favor. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Come on, tell me.]
Daju: [There was a scholar in Changlefang, Xijing. His wife was unruly and cunning. The scholar told his wife that he wanted to take a concubine.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [What is the scholar's family background like? ]
Daju: [The scholar's wife asked him: "You are so poor, how can you afford to buy a concubine?"]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Doesn’t a scholar know how to make money? ]
Daju: [Many scholars in Mingning country do not work and are supported by the government. How can they make money? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [What happened next? Did the scholar take a concubine?]
Daju: [The scholar's wife told him that if he had money, she would allow him to take a concubine.]
Daju: [So the scholar worked hard to save his own money, borrowed some from his friends, took it home and told his wife: "I have saved enough money, look!"]
Daju: [The scholar’s wife snatched the money, put it in her sleeve, bowed gracefully, and said: “I am willing to be your mistress. This money is just enough to buy me.”]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [This woman is unruly but also smart. If this happens several times, I'm afraid the scholar will never think of taking a concubine again, right?]
Daju: [Every time he wanted to take a concubine, the money went into his wife's pocket. If he had no money and took a concubine, wouldn't that make life even worse? Besides, they have several children to support, and the subsidy that the scholar got from the government is far from enough.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [The scholar is not engaged in production, so the scholar's wife must be a very careful budgeter.]
Daju: [Even a woman who works hard for her family day and night could be abandoned by Xiucai after he graduated from high school.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I think we should propose to Nangong Rui that if a scholar abandons his wife after passing the imperial examination, he will never be hired again, and he must also pay back the money. The government has supported him for so many years, and all the money must be returned.]
Daju: [This is a good idea, but what if the scholars become evil and kill the original wife? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [That's even easier. Kill all three clans! Mobilize the scholar's family to supervise him and prevent him from having the chance to kill his wife.]
Daju: [Laws can be made, but whether they are obeyed or not depends entirely on the character of the people. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [One kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people. This is indeed difficult to control. ]
Daju: [Last night, many families of wealthy and powerful people fled Xijing. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Hmm? Why do you want to escape?]
Daju: [I got wind of it.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Isn't this just trying to cover up the truth? Tell Nangong Rui directly that his family is guilty, and the crime is not light. At this time, surrendering is the best choice.]
Daju: [Many people are planning to flee to Dongchang State. Dongchang State is accepting a large number of people from Mingning State.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Dongchangguo is stupid. How dare you take in such a person? Don’t let him become Mr. Dongguo in the end.]
Daju: [That’s a matter between the two countries. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Zhao Fanchi's twin sister, Ximen Wuhen's mother, why isn't she in the palace? ]
Daju: [The two sisters had a falling out over Ximen Wuhen's murder, and Zhao Fanyan moved to the temporary palace in the suburbs of Xijing. With the money given by Nangong Qi, she kept a group of young prostitutes.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [How capable is that woman? ]
Daju: [He is good at eating, drinking, and having fun, and he can be humble and submissive. As for conspiracy and trickery, he is not even one ten-thousandth as good as Zhao Fanchi.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [A straw bag beauty? No wonder she taught her son to be like that.]
Daju: [Zhao Fanchi is not stupid, and her two sons are not that bad either.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [That may be because Zhao Fanchi was obsessed with power and neglected the education of his two sons.]
Daju: [There are so many twisted theories. The son is not just the woman's. The man is not at fault? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I haven’t finished yet! ]
