Chapter 157: Preparation

Cheng Wanyu was reluctant to walk out of Shi Jun, she knew that as long as she left this courtyard, it would not take a quarter of an hour for her. If you go back, it will be empty. Shi Jun came back secretly, firstly, to take a sneaky look at her, and secondly, to know that her temperament was easy to get into the horns.

Regarding the bandit riot, she always thought that as long as she held her head and dodged, she could save her life. But I never thought that if there was a problem in the house. I can hide this time, but I can't hide next time.

Find the problem, solve the problem. Isn't the purpose of her rebirth to pull out the fangs hidden in the shadows?

Xiao Cui carefully observed the contemplative face beside her, which was different from before she came. As if there is something on the mind, is there something big going on?

"Miss, why doesn't my uncle come back with us? How did he sneak up on you? Although she knew that she shouldn't ask, Xiaocui still couldn't hold back.

Cheng Wanyu turned her face and looked at Xiao Cui with a nervous face. He whispered, "What does he do, do you want me to repeat it again?" Since he was careful to hide, he had a reason. When did you become so ignorant? ”

Xiao Cui is already rare, Cheng Wanyu is angry, and when she heard Cheng Wanyu's reprimand, she had already lowered her head in disdain. pinched himself hard and pushed it hard, muttering in his heart that he was really going back more and more. What does the master want to do, can he still come and ask himself? What is your identity, and you don't know how thick the sky is when you have recently been favored by Miss?

I scolded myself secretly, and waited until I was about to get home. Xiao Cui raised her face and pleaded, "Miss, it's the slave who did something wrong." Not anymore. ”

Cheng Wanyu got off the carriage with a straight face, turned back to Xiao Cui and said, "This is the last time." I don't have the patience to coax you to play! ”

Xiao Cui nodded again and again, and then the little daughter-in-law carefully followed her back to the upper room on tiptoe.

Seeing Cheng Wanyu's straight face, Xiao Cui stood aside tremblingly. Mama Dong and the others immediately understood that something big must have happened. Otherwise, with Xiaocui's temperament, she would definitely not be so honest.

Cheng Wanyu didn't eat dinner. Only lock yourself in your room. I sat on the couch with my knees crossed and thought about it all night. Shi Jun told himself about the dangers he might encounter in the future, and gave himself a few solutions.

Cheng Wanyu thought about it and felt that Shi Jun's methods were quite feasible. He just underestimated his ability to bear it, and for a woman who had killed someone, she didn't even have the ability to protect herself.

Since he gave himself some manpower, plus the memory of the previous life. Cheng Wanyu's heart surged. I felt like it was time to do something.

She is also a resolute person who does what she wants, and she didn't wait for Xiaohong to serve breakfast early the next morning. She asked Fan Zhongen to come in, not only him, but also Yang Guard, Shen Guard, and Tong Yong.

"Recently I got news that a wave of homeless people and ringing horses is wandering through the larger towns of North County. They did not go into the city, but burned and plundered in the more affluent villages. Tong Yong sent someone to check it. They are afraid that they will come to the Huaizhou Mansion to do another vote before the year. ”

What Cheng Wanyu said, Tong Yong was stunned for a moment. This is what Childe told him, and asked him to protect his grandmother and the two young ladies. At this time, grandma said it, although she did not say that she had a secret meeting with her son yesterday, but this secret is not something that can be said casually.

"Are you sure, Miss? If we are sure, let's talk to the yamen in advance, and it can be regarded as saving the people of Limin! "Steward Fan Zhongen remembered what Cheng Wanyu had been talking about when she bought a shop before, did she want to report to the yamen in advance?

"I'm not sure! If you had said this in advance. In case someone doesn't come and invade. Fan Xiancheng, you have all dealt with each other, and this person is the most anxious for quick success. If you take us again with 'spreading rumors and making trouble', won't the gains outweigh the losses? Cheng Wanyu shook her head. Even if it was this time, Shi Jun clearly told her. She also didn't want to report the matter to the yamen, and the world could guess with their toes who was informing. Shi Jun sneaked out of the matter, isn't it that there are no three hundred taels of silver here, and he doesn't have to let the people above blame him.

"Let's just be prepared. So I thought that the soldiers would be divided into two ways, and Steward Fan, you would lead Shen and Yang back to Donglianghe. Tong Yong took the people left by the eldest young master to go to Qingshanzhai to guard. "Cheng Wanyu wants to protect these two villages this time. After all, this life is going to live here.

"No, it's our job to protect you. Why don't we send a letter to both sides? As long as they are well prepared, they are not afraid of someone coming to commit it. Besides, there are many villages around Huaizhou Mansion, so if you can't do it, you will really come to rob us! Fan Zhongen waved his hand. Disagree with Cheng Wanyu's approach.

Cheng Wanyu frowned: "This is not the time to selfishly talk about your own family's problems. As long as the family is stable, our small family can be stable. Qingshan Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack. No one thinks that anyone will have the idea of fighting Qingshanzhai. But here's the problem, Qingshanzhai is no longer the hometown of the famous swordsman a hundred years ago. If I had sounded the horse's head, I would have thought this emaciated camel could give it a try. ”

She didn't know how to explain why those people chose Donglianghe and Qingshanzhai. Maybe it's really as Shi Jun said, someone here secretly colludes to make people succeed.

"Miss, if we go. What do you do? The family is full of women and children, it's really unsafe! Tong Yong looked at her worriedly, and disagreed with Cheng Wanyu's decision at all.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll think of a way to get the best of both worlds. Now there's only one thing you need to do! Cheng Wanyu took out two letters, one to Qingshanzhai Shi Huang and one to her sixth brother Cheng Huizhi.

"Bring me to them, and if they believe me, then I think the rest will be done." Cheng Wanyu was sure in her heart that they would definitely pay attention to it. At least there will be an early warning in her heart, and wait until the person she sent out to inquire about the news gets the letter. It's never too late to join forces to do protection!

Sure enough, as Cheng Wanyu expected, Shi Huang and Cheng Huizhi attached great importance to it after receiving the letter. did not make a big publicity, but followed the messenger to Huaizhou City.

Steward Fan Zhongen took out two mountain ginseng from Shi Jun's warehouse, and returned to Dongliang River under the pretext that Cheng Wanyu was filial piety to the second elder to fry water to strengthen his body. found a reason to go to the sixth room to find Cheng Huizhi, and everyone knew that Cheng Wanyu partnered with him. No one took it to heart, and naturally they didn't pay attention.

After reading the letter, I heard Fan Zhongen's words again. Cheng Huizhi did not doubt it, and rushed to Huaizhou Mansion with him on the same day.

On the other hand, Tong Yong also handed over Cheng Wanyu's family letter in the name of filial piety to Shi Huang. He not only said what Cheng Wanyu meant, but also confirmed the authenticity of this matter.

Shi Huang didn't pay attention to it originally, but thought that Cheng Wanyu was making a big fuss. It's not that she doesn't believe that this kind of thing will happen, she just doesn't want to believe that Cheng Wanyu will be a woman similar to her.

At this time, I learned from Tong Yong's mouth that Shi Jun seemed to have sneaked back because he heard about it. He personally explained that Cheng Wanyu must inform her, and he was a little satisfied with Cheng Wanyu's attitude.

"Hibiscus, you follow him!" Shi Huang took this matter seriously, and the hibiscus girl became her messenger and followed Tong Yong to Huaizhou City.

And the people who sent it out also found out that a large number of displaced people did rush to Huaizhou Mansion. Although Cheng Huizhi didn't believe his sister's mouth, there was a traitor in the family who lured the wolf into the house.

"Sixth brother, I think it's better to explain it to my father earlier. It's just that I don't know who is wrong in the house. The displaced people are robbing either money or food, judging by the three cases they have committed before. It is the most likely to grab grain, after all, it is approaching the end of the year. Besides, you have forgotten that my father also opened a warehouse to release grain when my two children were 100 days old. "Showing off one's wealth will lead to murder and provoke a group of bandits to harm oneself. It can be regarded as self-inflicted, so Cheng Wanyu decided that even if she was rich in the future, she would hide in the room and count the money. I don't dare to send money to my dad in a big way, it's too scary.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, it began to snow heavily.

Cheng Wanyu sat in her mother's boudoir with her eldest daughter in her arms, waiting for her old father worriedly. Xiaocui came over to tell the child, saying that the Wu family came to see the child in the heavy snow. Cheng Wanyu looked down at her tired eldest daughter in her arms, and then looked at her little daughter who was still refusing to take a nap while gnawing her little feet.

It was just a stunned effort, and Wu pushed the door in. Walked in, smiled and stood not far from the child. took off the big coat on his body and roasted it by the brazier for a while. Only then did he approach the child and asked with concern, "How is it?" Is the boss better? ”

Because Cheng Wanyu wanted to go back to her parents' house for Laba, she insisted on holding the child and returned to her parents' house regardless of it. When I didn't want to enter the village, a donkey happened to be hungry and screamed. Woke up the sleeping boss and cried non-stop since that day. You have to be hugged to be quiet, and as soon as you put it on the kang, you cry.

The Wu family couldn't see their granddaughter suffering, and they had to nag Cheng Wanyu a few words every time they came to see it.

"Where's my dad? I haven't been here today! Xiao Xixi has always refused to take a nap, just waiting for her grandfather. Cheng Wanyu diverted the topic and mouthed Nunu, the youngest daughter who was listening to the adults with wide eyes.

Wu picked up his little granddaughter funny, and teased her with rare eyes: "Little thing, do you miss your grandfather?" It's a big ghost, and it's really an elf ghost. ”

As he spoke, he raised his head and complained to Cheng Wanyu: "Your father doesn't know what kind of wind to smoke recently, and he doesn't see anyone when he tosses outside all day." said that you have to check the grain at the end of the year, you said that there is anything to check in the family, it is your own son!
