Chapter 078: Fireside Night Talk, Brother Hurts

Soul Reaver Grass is a forbidden thing, not only in the ancestral family, but also in the government once issued a notice ordering the people to dare to use Soul Reaver Grass without permission and be killed with a cane.

Such a heavy punishment, there is a story in, when the emperor drove the border pass, and the Hu people fought a bloody battle for 100 days, seeing that the victory was imminent, because of the shortage of food and grass, the soldiers dug wild vegetables to fill their hunger, and ate the soul snatching grass by mistake, the so-called soul snatching is to make people lose their minds, so the soldiers are in a psychedelic state, and the enemy comes, and the army is defeated.

Even so, there are people who take risks stealing food because of its unique effect, which anesthetizes the mind, forgets worries, and allows you to achieve everything you desire in a half-dream.

Aunt Meng is an honest person, and there must be her reason for hiding this thing privately, so Zu Gongluo came to her in person, and said bluntly at the moment: "Liuli told me, as for who she listened to, I didn't ask this, but I know that this thing is not easy to handle, where did you get it?" ”

Aunt Meng looked left and right, and gave the eldest girl Jin'er a look, Jin'er waved her hand, and all the girls in the room retreated.

Aunt Meng saw that only she and her grandfather were left, and suddenly cried: "The second young master, don't tell the master, it's all my money obsession, I want to make some broken silver with this, my family background is not good, those aunts often laugh at me for being poor, and even the girls in my room said in private that they are unlucky with me, and they don't even have the money to reward them, so the monthly money is used by the minister to support the doorman, so I want to steal some silver from this." ”

Grandpa thought slightly, maybe because Grandpa spent a lot of financial resources to support the doorman, and pity the parents of the world, Aunt Meng took risks for the sake of her son. He sighed leisurely and told Aunt Meng: "You can't buy or sell this thing anymore, once the government knows about it." You're going to have to endanger the whole family. ”

Aunt Meng nodded vigorously.

Zu Gongluo said again: "I'll talk about the fifth child, the tree is a big wind, the ancestral family is easy to criticize in Lei Gong Town, and he also raises many customers, beware of letting those people with ill intentions slander, the King of Ling is in Lei Gong Town." ”

Aunt Meng was grateful.

Zu Gongluo turned the conversation back to the beginning: "Where did you get that grass?" ”

He thought. Aunt Meng didn't leave the house, she wouldn't have gone out to buy those Soul Snatchers by herself, there must be a middleman.

Aunt Meng hesitated.

Grandpa lowered his face slightly: "You don't say it." I also have a way to know, it's a big deal to torture all the boys in the compound, and it must be one of them. ”

Aunt Meng was suddenly afraid, and her reputation for being greedy for money was small. A reputation for private teaching with a manservant can not be guaranteed. I had to tell the truth: "Hui Jing, the abbot of the Dragon Mother Temple, was sold to me by her." ”

Zu Gongluo knew that many Taoist nuns used the convenience of being monks to wander in the boudoirs of various high-ranking families, seeing patients and divination, selling medicine and paintings, what paintings, and spring palace paintings. To make a fortune in this way, there are even men who pretend to be nuns and Taoist aunts. has done the business of picking flowers, and there is no shortage of people in Lei Gong Town.

Zu Gongluo instructed Aunt Meng not to interact with Hui Jing in the future, and when he left Aunt Meng's place, he went to the front and instructed Menzi that if Master Hui Jing of the Dragon Mother Temple came, she would refuse to enter.

After doing all this, he went to the garden to find Zu Gongqing.

In the big wax moon, the garden is a slaughter, one after another snow, someone in the courtyard is cleaned, in the garden, in addition to the various roads, other places are piled up a thick layer, bare trees and dry artemisia grass, only in the middle of an open space is very lively, there is a noise from afar, at this time Zu Gongqing and seven or eight doormen are shooting hooves, when it is his turn, it is a cheer, these doormen eat him and drink his, of course they have to coax him to be happy.

There was a sharp-eyed one who had already seen Zu Gongluo, and hurriedly said to Zu Gongqing: "The second young master is here." ”

Zu Gongqing was bending his bow and arrows to aim at the target, when he heard that the second brother was coming, he shot out with a whoosh, hitting the bull's-eye, and in the cheers of the door, he strode to meet Zu Gongluo, and shouted from afar: "Second brother, you also come and try." ”

Grandpa glanced at his doormen, stopped, waited for Grandpa to arrive in front of him, and said, "You can just walk with me." ”

Zu Gongqing looked around, the trees did not send flowers and plants, what was there to see, so he said: "It's cold here, go to me, I have saved the new brew of the Chen family in the autumn of this year, there is a poem that says, green ant new wine, red clay small stove, late day snow desire, can drink a cup of nothing, looking at the sun Kashan, let's talk around the fireplace at night, eat a good meal." ”

Grandpa groaned slightly, and then said, "Okay." ”

When I arrived at the ancestral father's room, the big girl Coral took a little girl to paste the window, the fifth young master is good at fists and feet, and often grabs anything at will and practices it, and the things in the room are broken by him, and the window paper is often broken by him.

Zu Gongqing shouted to Coral: "Go and ask the cook to make a pot and bring it." ”

Coral curtsied to the two young masters, and let the little girls continue to paste the window, she went to the kitchen, turned back with a little effort, followed by the kitchen cook and helper, not only brought back a pot, but also a food box covered with cotton mats, in which there were a few dishes, one by one on the kang table, and Zu Gongxiao and Zu Gongqing had already eaten a few large cups of candied fruit.

Zu Gongluo had something in his heart, the brothers, so after seeing Coral go out, he said bluntly: "Ming'er scattered those doormen." ”

Zu Gongqing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?" ”

Zu Gong said slightly: "You are also not a small boss, from literature or from martial arts, you should be careful, you can't be crazy." ”

Zu Gongqing smiled: "I want to go into battle to kill the enemy, but I can't get the martial arts champion, I want to be an official, I can't get the top prize, I want to run a business, you say I don't understand, just manage a few nursing homes, our family is not poor, raise some doormen to save me have nothing to do." ”

Grandpa slightly knocked the wine glass on the table, with three points of anger: "Do you think it's easy to manage a few nursing homes, you are not only in charge of the nursing homes of the ancestral family's compound, but also the nursing homes of the ancestral family's various businesses, not to mention, if our nursing home is good at kung fu, my father will not be seriously injured by Hu Haijiao, and now he is bedridden, this year, who do you say can live happily, and your doormen don't do anything, just by a few praises to you, they will eat and live in vain, whether it is a girl boy, or even a sweeper who feeds the horses, they are better than them." ”

This is the first time that the second brother has severely reprimanded himself, Zu Gongqing was quite surprised, wondering if it would be his father who has become a waste, the second brother has no scruples, thinking that he has become a big boss, he is dissatisfied, and muttered: "Now the little lady is in charge, she wants me to dismiss the doorman, wait for me to ask her, if she wants me to disperse the doorman, I will disperse, otherwise ......"

Zu Gong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he wanted to say something, but he still swallowed.

The brothers were stiffened, and the little guy Huzi in his grandfather's room came to him: "Second young master, something happened." (To be continued.) )
