Chapter 46: Finding Death

Hongqi originally listened to the old lady and Grandma Tuesday talk and went back. But when I go back, I always feel that something is not quite right, and my mind is always calm, and I am a little irritable, as if something bad will happen. After thinking about it, I decided to come to the old lady's yard again.

When the old lady heard this, she asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Isn't that great? Our conditions, Zhou Jiaquan agreed. This marriage proposal was annulled by us. said that because you are still young, I want to keep you for another two years, in order not to delay the son of the Zhou family, the marriage will be abandoned. That way, it won't hurt your reputation. In addition, the matter of letting the people of the Zhou family train a child of our family to be a person and a jinshi was also agreed. It can be said that everyone is happy, what else is wrong? ”

"I thought it would have been too quick and easy for my grandmother to say yes that Tuesday."

Red Seven can't actually say what's wrong, it's just that it doesn't feel good.

In their line of work, walking on the brink of danger, they are often saved by intuition. Therefore, when doing a task, once you feel that something is wrong, you will immediately increase your vigilance, and even immediately give up the action temporarily, look at the situation again, and even make other plans.

When the old lady heard this, she smiled and said, "Seventh sister, you're thinking too much." That Zhou family thought you were stupid, and this happened again, but I was worried that we would not agree to dissolve this marriage. We put forward this condition because we were afraid that they would not be able to ask for it. If it were me, I was afraid that I would agree immediately, which was better than marrying a foolish daughter-in-law and making people laugh. Moreover, this condition is a difficult thing for others, but for their Zhou family, it is nothing, a trivial matter. Don't you see, the second grandmother of the Zhou family agreed so simply, how can she be a little reluctant? If we foolishly don't want any good, I'm afraid they will worry about us talking nonsense. As for that Feng Gu, she is just a subordinate, even if it is indeed a little unusual, there is no secret in any big family. Take 10,000 steps back, this matter, the worst result is just that the Zhou family agreed on the surface, but behind the scenes, they delayed it, or found some way to break the contract, how bad could it be? You can rest assured! Don't think about it. ”

Hong Qi saw that the old lady had said everything, so it was difficult to say anything.

The old lady and the second lady are all overjoyed about this now, and they are afraid that they will not listen to what she says. I talked too much, but I was afraid that I would be disgusted, so let's stop in moderation.

Although Hong Qi can remind the old lady and let the old lady be too guarded. Grandma brought someone like Aunt Feng on Tuesday, but I am afraid that the Zhou family is not as simple as Hong Qi originally thought, and I am afraid that there are some other forces. It is very likely that grandma agreed on the surface that Tuesday, and then instructed Na Feng Gu to try to steal the evidence behind her back. If the old lady is not careful, it is very likely to be tricked.

However, if the Zhou family was really as complicated as Hong Qi thought, it would be better to steal this thing, so as not to cause other disasters.

Last time, Xiao Jia's used such a strategy, and he had to borrow external forces, Hong Qi thought that the Zhou family was the kind of well-behaved poet and calligrapher, but Xiao Jia's personal doing, so it was nothing. But this Feng Gu is obviously from the Zhou family.

The family with such a subordinate person is absolutely clean and simple, and the power will not be small, and the small red family will not be an opponent. It's better to let them succeed and eliminate the disaster.

Therefore, Hong Qi didn't mention it, only sat for a while, and then went back to Wutong Garden.

It was the old lady, after Hong Qi left, thought about it, took the box containing the confession out of the dark compartment, and gave it to Cedar.

Last time, Mei Shuhan quietly touched it in the house, and he also used incense, if it wasn't for the Ning brothers, I was afraid that they would succeed.

That Feng Gu did see that there were some problems, so the old lady raised her vigilance and arranged it.

In the afternoon, Cedar quietly went home, saying that she was going to see her mother. Cedar's mother was already sick, and she would go back every now and then to see it, and no one thought much about it. When Cedar went back, he took a big bag. When I went back, my burden was flattened. When the girls in the house go home, they will bring some things back, which is not a big deal.

When she came back, the old lady turned her back and whispered to her, "Can you hide the things?" ”

"Don't worry, old lady, I hid it with my own hands, and no one knows about it except me."

Cedar also replied quietly.

The old lady was relieved, and Cedar has always been the safest way to do things.

After that, Grandma spent another few days in Qinghe County on Tuesday. During this period, Cedar found that other people had come to the old lady's house, and although the things looked neat, they had been touched by others. That person was also very careful, it was just Cedar's own hand-sorted things, and he was prepared in advance, so he naturally wouldn't be deceived lightly.

Cedar told the old lady about this, and the old lady only nodded, telling her not to tell anyone. The old lady also received Grandma Tuesday casually, without showing any unusual looks.

If they don't talk about it, naturally no one in the house will know about it.

Only Hongqi, after waiting for a few days, I found that the old lady was calm, but I was a little surprised, could it really be that she was too careful? Or was Grandma particularly calm that Tuesday? Not in a hurry?

……

It's already time, and the lights in the grandmother's house in the Zhou family courtyard in Qinghe County are still on.

There were two people in the house, one was Grandma Tuesday and the other was Xiao Jia.

Feng Gu came in, still wearing night clothes.

"How? Did you find it? ”

Grandma asked in a deep voice on Tuesday.

Feng Gu shook her head: "Still not." I searched the rooms of the old lady of the Hong family and several wives, and I also went in to look at the warehouse, but I didn't find it. Things are really hidden, and they can't be found in a short time. The only way is to take the time to inquire slowly from the inside, and perhaps there is hope. ”

"That's too time-consuming, this kind of thing, the longer it drags on, the more likely it is that the news will be leaked. Although the Hong family is still counting on benefits, they should be able to keep their mouths shut. But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Before coming, the second master explained to me. If you can get it, it's good, if not, go straight to the second step. You are solely responsible for this matter, go down and prepare, only succeed and not fail, you know? ”

"Yes, Second Grandma."

Feng Gu respectfully stepped back.

On Tuesday, Grandma's kind face as a Bodhisattva showed a cruel color: "The Hong family, you dare to threaten our Zhou family, you are looking for death!" No one else's fault. ”

A few days later, on Tuesday my grandmother said that she had had had enough fun, and that she was going back to prepare for the old woman, and to say goodbye to the old lady. The old lady gave Cheng Yi and loaded a lot of local products, almost a full car, so that Grandma could give the Zhou family a taste on Tuesday. On Tuesday, grandma also thanked the old lady, and told the old lady that if she went to Yangzhou, she must go to Zhou's house, and she would definitely entertain the old lady well.

Xiao Jia's was also handed over to Grandma Tuesday after the two families negotiated. When I left, I didn't see her.

The old lady and her party sent Grandma Tuesday out of the city, Hong Qi naturally had no chance to participate in such a grand event, and the people outside didn't know that she was okay, and thought she was a fool, so she naturally couldn't appear. It's better to wait for this matter to be over, and then a few months later, to announce it.

When Grandma and Xiao Jia left on Tuesday, it was already the end of November, not far from the Chinese New Year.

The third lord of the Hong family, Hong Shaoliang, came to a letter, saying that the Hong family's house in the capital was almost repaired. There are still some finishes, if you wait until the year later, back and forth, I am afraid that it will delay a lot of effort. Therefore, he will not come back for the New Year, and he will hurry up to finish the house in one go, and also fix some furniture or something. From now on, the Hong family will have a place to settle in the capital.

And next year, the old lady plans to move the entire Hong family to the capital, and settle and develop in the capital from now on. Qinghe County is only reserved as an ancestral house, and some renovated subordinates are left to guard it here.

The old lady's vision is long-term, the place in Qinghe County is too small, and there are no famous ministers and generals, and there are no real big families. It has always been here, and it is difficult for the Red family to develop. It is still a large place in the capital, with many high-ranking officials and many opportunities. And with the King of Runan and the Marquis of Ningyuan as their backers, the Hong family can also establish a foothold in the capital, and the girls of the Hong family can also find better families.

In the letter, there is another good news, that is, the eldest lady of the Hong family who married the king of Runan is happy.

This is a real happy event, the old lady heard it, and was so happy that she thanked the Buddha again and again, not to mention the third wife, and the other people were also happy, and the old lady let people send a reward. The whole house was overjoyed.

Suddenly, the Hong family can be said to be three joys.

So, while buying New Year's goods, the Red Mansion also began to pack the things in the house, which ones to take away after the New Year and which ones to stay. There are also people who have to make arrangements, which ones are to be brought and which ones are left behind. There are also some subordinates whose families are in Qinghe County, and they are unwilling to go to the capital, so they have to make arrangements. Is it to find a tooth wife to sell, or do they find their own home, or do they redeem themselves?

All of a sudden, the Red family was busy and chaotic.

The busiest are naturally the old lady and the third wife, they are the main decision-makers, and they need to make decisions on many things. Hong Qi is okay, she only needs to be in charge of her yard. Seven has seen a lot of the world, and this is not a matter at all for her. If she has the heart, she can do it all in two or three days.

It's just that she has the heart to experience a few girls, so she became a shopkeeper.

It is the first time that Chunfeng and Xiaxi girls have experienced such a major event, and they are inevitably a little in a hurry, either the account here is wrong, or something is missing.

At this time, some people will take advantage of the chaos.

Xia Xi was ruthless and punished a few girls severely, but it also had some effect.

It's just that there are still some confused accounts, and they are confused, the public says that the public is reasonable, the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, and the skin and tendons are pulled into a mess.

Later, Hong Qi took over and quickly sorted out the mess. These things are difficult to say, simple to say. It is just a matter of detailing what each person is going to do. If you can't do it, if you do it badly, just find the person in charge directly.

The spring breeze and the others always saw which girl, and casually ordered, today this, tomorrow that, in the end, who did what, they themselves can't figure it out, and it will naturally be chaotic.

With the intervention of Hongqi, Wutong Courtyard was the first to get a qiē done. The account was also handed over to the third wife, and the things that should be put into the warehouse were also put into the warehouse, clear and clear, the third wife accepted it without much effort, but praised the spring breeze a few times.

After this incident, several girls have grown a lot, and they have become more and more respectful of Hong Qi.

When the Hong family was too busy to do anything, people outside began to panic. It's almost the end of the year, and those who send New Year's goods and return to their hometowns are people who come out of nowhere, and it's so lively everywhere.

At this time, every year, it is also a time when thieves and bandits are rampant.

Recently, many people in the teahouse tavern in Qinghe County have spread such news.
