Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 682 It’s better not to have a man!

The restaurant manager bowed to Bai Wanwan and replied, "Miss, the people you asked to prepare have all been arranged."

Bai Wanwan lowered her voice and said:

"These six have all been meticulously trained, each with their own specialties in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

The Sixth Prince has always been dissolute, so giving him this generous gift is a good use of it."

Gu Sinian stood beside her and said, "You've thought of every aspect."

Bai Wanwan smiled up at him, a cunning glint in her eyes: "How else can we accomplish anything great? This is our chess game, and we can't make a single mistake."

She could actually participate in history, the drama of the Nine Dragons' fight for the throne. She had to play her role well, the military advisor to the future emperor Gu Sinian, the female Zhuge Liang, tsk tsk tsk...

She absolutely deserves these titles, okay?

What she did was like playing chess, a chess piece here and there, and in the end, when they were connected together, she could change the entire chessboard.

Gu Sinian looked at her, smiled faintly and said, "Do you want me to take you home?"

"Yes, of course!"

As soon as she got home, she saw Shen Tao sitting on her doorstep waiting for her: "Bai Wanwan, I can't even enter your house now, right? Your doorman actually blocked me."

Bai Wanwan looked at him and said, "That's because you keep climbing over my wall all day long. What's your problem?"

"Oh! You are not my servant anymore, but you speak more harshly than before." Shen Tao sighed and said lightly.

Bai Wanwan was speechless: "What's going on? Tell me or not? If not, I'm going back to sleep."

"No! This is a post. It's for Wang Jingheng's engagement party, and they have to invite you."

Bai Wanwan was stunned for a moment and said, "Wang Jingheng is engaged? Isn't he only in his teens?"

Shen Tao said helplessly:

"He was not engaged until he was in his teens, and his fiancée was very frail and often ill.

I heard she caught a cold recently. Please check her out tomorrow."

Bai Wanwan rolled her eyes and said, "I knew he was up to no good. Got it, got it. I'll definitely go tomorrow."

Shen Tao nodded, looked at Gu Sinian, coughed and said, "Then I'll pick you up tomorrow at noon. The Eighteenth Prince hasn't returned to the palace yet!"

Gu Sinian looked at him calmly and said, "It's getting late. It's not good for a child like you to hang around outside all the time. Fifteen, send him back to the princess's mansion."

Shen Tao said, "Hey!" "I just came out and I want to relax. I also want to eat something delicious. I want to eat barbecue, roast chicken, roast duck..."

Fifteen carried him directly into the carriage.

Gu Sinian looked at Bai Wanwan and said, "Barbecue, roast chicken, roast duck? Do you often make these for him?"

Bai Wanwan quickly waved her hand and said, "The things I'm most impatient about are cooking and embroidery. Lexi is doing both. Do you want to eat barbecue?"

"Hmm! I want to try it..."

"Okay, I'll let Lexi do it for you." Bai Wanwan didn't understand what was wrong with this kid. She always felt that he was a little unhappy.

The next morning, Bai Wanwan was woken up. She said drowsily, "I want to sleep a little longer..."

Zhiwei quickly said, "Madame Zheng is waiting for you outside..."

Bai Wanwan quickly got up and said:

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I had forgotten all about it. I have to start learning the rules again when I come back.

I don't understand why I have to learn the rules of the palace?

Actually, there is absolutely no need for that. When Brother Si Nian becomes the emperor, I won’t have to perform the ceremony anymore.”

Zhiwei didn't dare to say anything at all. Bai Wanwan spent an hour learning the rules before she went to the banquet obediently.

Wang Jingheng's house was quite impressive. As soon as they arrived, they saw Wang Jingheng's servant standing respectfully at the door to greet them.

Soon they arrived at the backyard, and Shen Tao said:

"The cousin Wang Jingheng is going to marry is the daughter of the Minister of Personnel. Her father is a second-rank official and holds some weight in the court.

The girl was indeed well-proportioned, with delicate features, but she had imitated Lin Daiyu's manners to the letter.

When she spoke, she always sounded a bit breathless and weak, and even when she was holding the teacup, she needed the maid to hold her wrist, for fear of using even a little more strength.

Bai Wanwan shuddered and said, "Wang Jingheng likes this? I think he's carefree and should like straightforward people!"

Shen Tao frowned and said:

"Straightforward? This is the decision made by the family, he has no say at all.

What's more, if you marry this, you can still take a concubine, it doesn't matter.

My cousin is also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she won’t be a problem as a housekeeper.”

Bai Wanwan stared at him and shook her head, saying, "Shen Tao, after you get married, you're planning on taking a concubine!"

Shen Tao nodded and said, "Of course I have to take a concubine! But I think if Madam can give birth to a child, there is no need to take a concubine."

Bai Wanwan shook her head and said, "Men! They're all like this."

Shen Tao was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean? Are you not going to allow your husband to take concubines in the future?"

Bai Wanwan nodded and said, "Yes! What I want is to be with one person for the rest of my life. You don't understand."

Shen Tao frowned and looked at her and said:

"A lifetime together? How could you have such a horrible idea? You really don't understand the ins and outs of this.

Do you think having three wives and four concubines is just for fun? No.

Having more branches is for the purpose of expanding the family. With more children, there will be those who can take up responsibilities in the future, and the family business can be passed on. This is the fundamental principle.

To put it more deeply, which family doesn’t have many relatives, friends, and old acquaintances?

Sometimes we don't want to marry, but someone else takes the initiative to send the girl to us. What's the reason behind this? It's friendship, it's support.

If you marry a girl from the Zhang family, will the Zhang family lend a hand when you encounter problems in the future? If you marry a girl from the Li family, the Li family can also lend a hand. This is all about helping each other move forward.

With so many things to do at home, how can one person take care of it all?

The head wife takes care of the inner house inside and out, while the others help take care of the seriously ill elderly and take care of the children. Only when everyone does their job can the family run smoothly.

Bai Wanwan looked at him and said, "I think what you said makes sense."

"Right? I think what I said makes sense, and this is what I was taught since I was a child!" Shen Tao argued.

Bai Wanwan was too lazy to explain anything. After all, the orthodox education nowadays requires women to take the initiative to take concubines for men, otherwise they would be considered jealous.

These are the concepts Shen Tao has been taught since childhood, so naturally he cannot understand Bai Wanwan's thoughts.

Bai Wanwan traveled from the modern era. If she is asked to take a concubine for her man, it would be better for her not to have a man!

And in her opinion, wouldn't she be happier without a man?

She is powerful and influential, so if all else fails, she can find a man and have a child. Although it may be a little unpleasant in terms of etiquette, she can live a comfortable life!

Plus, she has the protection of several brothers, so her life must be so comfortable!

When Gu Sinian becomes the emperor, she will be promoted and become the eldest princess. This life will be too beautiful to even think about it.
