Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 93: idea

  Chapter 93 Ideas

  With this little money, she is more than rich in the village, so buying a shop is just a luxury.

  Although she was an executive in her previous life, she is good at business.

  Nowadays, the Great Chu Dynasty does not prohibit the family members of officials from owning private property. On the contrary, the dowry when a woman gets married is the woman’s private property, and neither her natal family nor her husband’s family has the right to corrupt ink.

   This is why, why the dowry of ancient women was important.

  Ye Muyu feels that this is very humane, women's status is lower in the first place, and the dowry can at least guarantee food and clothing after marriage.

Of course, ordinary people who understand etiquette would not think of greedy for the dowry of ink wives, but there are many cases of greed for ink dowry. For example, there is an example in Chululi. After the incident, Emperor Taizong was furious and punished him for embezzling ink and silver.

  In the end, Liu Shangshu was demoted and sent back to his hometown, and his concubine was sentenced to death for murdering for money.

   As for the Liu family, two generations are not allowed to be officials.

   This is serious. According to the law of Chu, generally speaking, only the officials will be cut, and the clansmen will not be implicated.

   But I can't stand it. Liu Shangshu's wife is a descendant of the famous founding general Lu's family. At that time, Liu Shangshu's wife, Lu's grandfather and father, all died in the battle. Emperor Taizong was very sad, and this happened again.

  The Liu family hit the gunpoint and became the target of the emperor to vent his anger.

  Not only was the official removed and returned to his hometown, but the Liu family was also implicated.

  Lu’s reconciliation with Liu Shangshu, this case was also written into the Chu law. One day in the Great Chu Dynasty, it will be read by scholars, which can be said to be nailed to the pillar of shame.

  The Liu family is miserable.

  Now is the period of Emperor Mingzong, which is the ninth year of Yuankang.

  Ye Muyu is relieved now, and she can also do business.

  However, when she married Chu Heng, the dowry was almost nothing, except for some cloth and clothes, which was five taels of silver.

  There is no piece of land.

   But the original owner was lucky at the time, and bought a piece of land in the village with five taels of silver. Now she is not without a dowry.

   And these dowries were all written in the original marriage certificate.

  Ye Muyu thought, if she produces from one of her own fields and sells it to start a business, it can be regarded as her natal family's private property.

   And Chu Heng should not be a person who is greedy for money. At least, giving ten taels of silver for three months is definitely unique in the countryside.

   Then she has nothing to worry about.

   It's just that, what business to do, you need to plan carefully.

  Counting it all together, she seems to only be in the food business.

  Ye Muyu's head turned around, thinking about the ingredients that are available at this time, such as radishes, sweet potatoes, and other vegetables that are easy to preserve, and they are still in the cellar at home.

   But they are not very valuable, so it is not suitable to take them out now as the first stepping stone.

   When the business stabilizes in the future, she can try to use these cheap ingredients for food.

   "By the way, there is still **** in the cellar. When the season comes, it would be appropriate to grow some **** and sell it."

   "What else is there..."

Ye Muyu held his chin and thought, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, his eyes lit up, he clapped his hands together: "By the way, don't you have cakes? I have flour at home, add eggs, and make small pieces of cakes. If you have Butter, it’s a fresh product.”

   "In addition to the fact that the county is going to announce the women's art competition, if a big cake can be made on the day of the announcement, the county magistrate will take the lead in congratulating and share the food with the people, which will definitely lead to the birth of the cake."
