Chapter 134: Robbers
Minglan looked at the old lady and said, "Grandfather, I can't easily promise you this, I have to ask Steward Liu to know how much charcoal is still on the Zhuangzi, what if I can't do it?"
Bizhu stood aside, she really didn't know what to say, she couldn't figure out what the girl was thinking, and she didn't frown when she gave away 80,000 taels, why did she care about a little money?
Why don't you agree generously, and save the old lady from being unhappy?
Indeed, Minglan has sent out most of her head, and she really shouldn't hold on to some trivial things, but she just can't get used to seeing others arrange her, and again and again, the mud people are angry, and she is resolutely not used to their stinky problems.

The fault for this is the second aunt and grandmother, Minglan also took a step back, and the old lady nodded and said, "It's not too late to wait for you to ask Steward Liu, it's been a tiring day, go back and have a good rest." ”
But Minglan didn't leave, she took the tray from Bizhu's hand, sent the embroidery embroidered with peaches to the old lady, and said, "Grandfather, the birthday gift I gave to my grandmother before was embroidered by me in Jinxiufang, this one was embroidered by my own hands, and it was still good when I saw it in the morning....... ”
Minglan opened the embroidery for the old lady to see.
The old lady's eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters, and the infighting in the house was more serious than he imagined, but fortunately, Minglan was well-behaved and sensible, and did not make a fuss on the spot, so that people could see the jokes of the uncle's house, he said that she had delayed sending the congratulatory gift, and she wanted to speak a few times and stopped, and the maid was ignorant and reckless and screamed and sent the congratulatory gift, so it was.
Originally, the matter of the inner courtyard should have been told to the old lady, but she celebrated her birthday today, and she didn't want to use this matter to upset her again because of the unhappiness of her second aunt and grandmother.
"I know about this, and my grandfather will ask someone to find out. ”
Minglan nodded, then exited the study, and when she went out, Minglan asked Bizhu to go to Zhuangzi for a trip, no need to tell anything, this maid values money more than her, and she won't do anything about losing money.
Bizhu worked hard, ran up to Zhuangzi, and saw a beautiful Zhuangzi everywhere in the dark, Bizhu's heart, liver and lungs hurt.
The snow is falling, and those little guys are very energetic with charcoal on their backs, and they are gray-faced, which is really funny.
But soon, she couldn't laugh anymore, and the charcoal was really as the girl said, and there was only a little charcoal left......
Bizhu didn't know whether to be happy or cry, so she didn't dare to delay, and rushed back in a carriage.
Tell Minglan about the things in Zhuangzi, and then say, "There are only about ten carriages of good charcoal left, and there are a lot of broken charcoal slags, but they are ...... for those poor people." ”
It can be said that there is no charcoal for her to squander.
The next day, Minglan braved the snow to go to the front yard to see the old lady, and told him truthfully that he knew, in fact, there was no need for Minglan to tell him, the old lady knew yesterday that the coachman who sent Bizhu was the confidant of Manager Li.
The old lady was disappointed, but also very relieved, Minglan really cared about those poor people, and sent them a lot of charcoal these days, did good deeds, and did not leave a name.
"How should this be done?" said the old lady.
Minglan was pouting, annoyed by her soft-heartedness, she said, "I spent a night thinking of a way to not need to send charcoal, but also to fulfill the second aunt's promise and not damage the reputation of the uncle's house, but the second aunt's three thousand taels still have to be given to me." ”
Old lady, "......." ”
Without hesitation, the old lady gave Minglan the three thousand taels of silver tickets sent by the second aunt and grandmother.
His granddaughter screwed it very much, and she didn't frown when she gave 20,000 taels of silver, but she didn't frown, but 3,000 taels was stubborn.
took the silver ticket and went out of the study, Minglan whispered a few words in Bizhu's ear, and Bizhu took the silver ticket and flashed.
Bizhu first went to the rice shop to buy three thousand taels of silver rice, and asked people to send Zhuangzi up, and then went to Zhuangzi to pass a message to Steward Liu, and loaded the rice and charcoal into a carriage, and sent it to Bofu early tomorrow morning.
But it's not really a gift, it's just a show, and then let Liu Steward find a few reliable little guys to pretend to be poor people, and tomorrow he will take a wooden stick and rob the dozens of carriages, and before the city patrol finds out, quickly give charcoal and rice to those poor people......
The charcoal on the left and right was originally for them, just pretending, and what she wanted was that this matter was big, the bigger the better, Zhuangzi sent charcoal to Bofu, but he was robbed early in the morning, and without charcoal, he naturally couldn't give it away......
And this heavy snowfall made her fame and fortune envied and hated, so that she didn't have to bear the name of goodness, and it could be regarded as a little less burden on her.
Steward Liu was sloppy, and when Minglan got up the next day, the news of the robbery of grain and charcoal spread all over the Bofu.
And the play is very realistic, except for the old lady, the old lady and Bizhu, everyone else has been deceived, no way, the bruise on the little girl's face is real, the serious nose is blue, the face is swollen and the arm is dislocated.
Steward Liu pleaded guilty for the disadvantage, of course, he was the most seriously injured among all of them, and his eyes were blue, and he couldn't open them, which was a miserable one.
When Minglan saw it, he subconsciously thought that he had really encountered a robber.
She couldn't help but hold her forehead, looked at Steward Liu, and said with her eyes: It's just a fraud, you don't have to be so ruthless, right?
Steward Liu didn't dare to look at those little guys, it was a little ruthless, but there was no way, he had been honest all his life, and he had never done such a thing, and he was always worried that he would be seen by others...... The left and right are just some skin injuries, and it would be good to rest and recuperate for a while.
This calculation, this acting, the old lady and the old lady looked at each other, crying and laughing.
Then, about the robbery of the Bofu, it soon spread all over Kyoto, after all, it was a robbery at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it was difficult not to make a sensation, and everyone had heard of the fact that Jingning Bofu bought charcoal and made a windfall, and they were envious and jealous in their hearts.
In particular, there are people behind the scenes who say that Bofu was robbed, just because of hypocrisy and righteousness, sending a little rice and charcoal every day, not really caring about those people, just to gain a good name, some people can't see it, so they robbed dozens of wagons of charcoal and grain, and distributed it to those poor people, so that Bofu can see what is pretentious and what is real generosity.
It's quite like that, that is, Sydney didn't know it, and sprayed the dog blood scolded by the robber in front of Minglan, and the corners of Minglan's mouth twitched.
"Okay, don't scold, the charcoal and rice on the left and right have finally reached the hands of those people, and it's a good thing after all," Bizhu couldn't help but comfort Sydney.
Sydney's mouth pouted and she could hang the oil pot, "If it weren't for the grain and rice given to those people, I wouldn't have scolded so easily, the girl could have a good reputation, but now it's all ruined!
Don't be angry, it's the girl herself who ruined the girl's good reputation, what can she do if she doesn't have a good reputation......
