Imhama Castle Kyogokukan.
Nakayama Takauchi and others moved into a separate hospital under the arrangement of Kyogoku Takahiro, while Sanjo Kōri came to Kyogoku Takamasa Yashiki under the leadership of a minor surname.
Mrs. Sanjo was arranging flowers in the courtyard at this time. This is a very popular form of entertainment, which can also cultivate one's moral character and is very popular among the female relatives of the public and samurai families.
Carefully putting a wild flower into the pot, Mrs. Sanjo couldn't help but slouched over. She had been sitting here for nearly half an hour.
Suddenly, Mrs. Sanjo seemed to see a figure out of the corner of her eyes and turned her head sharply.
"Father?"
"Father!"
At first Mrs. Sanjo thought she had made a mistake, but after taking a closer look, she found that it was indeed her father Sanjo Kōrai.
For a moment, the longing for loved ones burst out instantly.
Mr. Sanjou, who was standing in the corridor, also tried his best to squeeze out a few tears, and then hugged Mrs. Sanjou who rushed over.
"Ajiu, since you got married, your father and mother have missed you very much. This time, my father came to Omi specially to see my daughter."
"You seem to be losing weight?"
"But the Kyogoku family doesn't treat you well?"
"Or maybe Sakyo Jin bullied you?"
"You can talk to your father, he will make the decision with you!"
Sanjou raised his head, as if he were protecting his calf.
Hearing the caring words from Mr. Sanjo's mouth, Mrs. Sanjo's heart was as sweet as honey.
It has been almost half a year since she married into Kyogoku's family. Although Kyogoku Takamasa is indeed the "Prince Charming" she expected, Kyogoku Takamasa and she have never slept together.
As a woman, Mrs. Sanjo naturally knew what this meant.
Sometimes, Mrs. Sanjo would feel confused, lonely, and even a little lost and helpless.
And the arrival of Sanjou Kōrai today was the blow that broke down Mrs. Sanjo's psychological defense, causing Mrs. Sanjo's long-suppressed emotions to completely explode.
"Father, my lord and your highness treat me very well."
"It's just that the land of Omi is too unfamiliar, and it's very boring to stay at home all day long. Being able to see my father today makes Ajiu feel like he's in a dream." Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Mrs. Sanjo's face was filled with happiness. smile.
Mr. Sanjou seemed to be moved too, and he quickly took Mrs. Sanjou to sit down in the courtyard.
"Look, this is your favorite Kyoto rice cake. Your mother specially asked me to bring it to you." Sanjo Kyouri placed a wooden box he was holding on the table.
"Rice cake?"
Mrs. Sanjo immediately covered her mouth, then stuck out her tongue, and couldn't wait to open the wooden box. There were several pieces of white cakes inside.
"Then I'll start!"
The white rice cakes were so tempting that Mrs. Sanjo moved her index finger and quickly put one piece into her mouth.
Feeling the fragrance of rice in her mouth and the taste deep in her memory, Mrs. Sanjo's eyebrows curved into a crescent moon.
"Ajiu is so happy to be able to eat rice cakes like this. Father is so kind!"
Sanjou Korai reached out and touched Mrs. Sanjo's head, and then gently patted Mrs. Sanjo's back along the hair, as if he was afraid that Mrs. Sanjo would choke.
But when Mr. Sanjou's hand touched Mrs. Sanjou's clothes, he suddenly paused. Then he looked at Mrs. Sanjou with a look of disbelief and asked, "Ajiu, what you are wearing... is silk?"
"yes!"
Mrs. Sanjo didn't doubt that he was there. After swallowing the rice cake in her mouth, she quickly picked up another rice cake and put it in her mouth. She puffed her mouth and answered.
Sanjo Kōrai showed an envious look, and then asked curiously: "Sakyo Susumu is actually willing to buy silk clothes for you?"
"What's the matter? Your Highness gave me several sets as a gift!"
"How many sets?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Sanjo nodded heavily, and then continued without raising her head, "It's not just me, even Mrs. Xin'an in the side room has several. Mrs. Kotokawa has even more, and has several boxes!"
Sanjo Kōrai was hit hard for a while.
Looking at this gorgeous dress that has been passed down for several years and is only worn when attending grand banquets and extremely important occasions, I didn't know what to say for a while. But when he thought of the purpose of his trip, Sanjo Kōrai quickly continued to ask: "Is Sakyo Susumu rich?"
"There should be a lot."
"It is said that the financial power of the family is now in the hands of His Highness. The development of Imahama Castle Town has attracted many businessmen to open commercial houses. During this period, there has been a lot of profit."
"By the way, it seems that a copper mine has been discovered in the territory recently and is being mined vigorously."
"Your Highness, you should not be short of money!" Mrs. Sanjo said calmly, raising her head.
Sanjo Kyourai immediately rubbed his hands, "But I don't know where Sakyo Shin is now?"
"Your Highness has gone out and is not at home now."
"..."
Mrs. Sanjo's words immediately made Mr. Sanjo's balls ache again.
Kyogoku Takahiro seemed to be refusing to lend him money even to death. He originally wanted to get some from his son-in-law.
Judging from Mrs. Sanjo's dress, Kyogoku Takamasa should not be short of money.
Sanjou Kōrai originally had unlimited hopes, but in an instant he fell to the bottom because of Mrs. Sanjo's words.
For a moment, Sanjou no Rai felt very uncomfortable and let out a helpless sigh.
"well......."
Seeing Mr. Sanjo's dejected look, Mrs. Sanjo couldn't help but ask, "Father, is there anything you are worried about?"
"What Ajiu doesn't know is that there has been a war in Kyoto recently, and my family's Zhixing area in Settsu has also been plundered. Now there is only half a month's worth of food left at home, your mother has been crying all day long, and everyone is about to starve to death!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Sanjo became anxious.
"Father, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You are from a womanly family, and besides, you are now a member of the Kyogoku family, so what's the use of telling you!"
"Even if Ajiu marries into the Kyogoku family, she is still the daughter of her father and mother. Now that the Sanjo family is in trouble, how can Ajiu just sit idly by and ignore it!"
"Ayuki, go see how much money I have left!" Mrs. Sanjo turned to the maid Ashue standing behind her and said.
Ashue nodded quickly and walked into the room.
Not long after, Ashue walked out again.
"Madam, counting the gifts sent by the wives of the retainers at home, it should be about a thousand guan."
Hearing this, Mrs. Sanjo quickly turned her head to look at Sanjo Kōrai, "Father, that's all Ajiu has. Although it's not much, I hope Father will accept it!"
What Mrs. Sanjo said seemed innocuous, but to Mr. Sanjo's ears, it sounded like she was showing off her wealth.
Nima 1000 strings? !
not much?
Sanjo Kōrai's breathing began to quicken for a moment, but the last trace of reason he still had left allowed him to ask the question in his heart: "Why does my daughter have so much money?"
"Your Highness gave it to you!" Mrs. Sanjo replied without thinking.
"Give this much?"
"Last month was Ajiu's birthday. His Highness insisted on giving me some red envelope, which made me very puzzled."
"On May 20th, Your Highness insists on giving me some holiday gift. Is May 20th really a holiday?"
"In addition, His Highness also gave me a hundred guan as pocket money every month, but the castle town has not been built yet, and Ajiu has nothing to buy, and there is no place to spend it if he has money."
"In addition, the wives of retainers often come to visit, and every time they come, they give many gifts. Although they are not valuable things, but together, the number is quite large!" Mrs. Sanjo pointed her finger 151 Ten explained the origin of the money to Sanjo Korai.
Sanjo Kōrai's heart twitched, and his body began to tremble slightly.
MMP, is the Kyogoku family so rich?
Kyogoku Takamasa, who is far away in Ise, said that when men make money, don’t they spend it on their women?
Isn’t it natural for a husband to give his wife pocket money?
right?
