At this time, Master Jin, who was thinking about how to apologize when he went to Li Manshan's house tomorrow in the study, heard Dongzi panting and shouting while running, "Master, master, it's not good, it's not good!" ”

Master Jin suddenly got angry, master, I'm unlucky today, you still call me bad for me, isn't this touching my moldy head!

Seeing Dongzi running in, he stepped forward and said, "What are you shouting in the early morning, master, I'm fine, how can it be bad?" ”

Dongzi got up from the ground and felt that he had lost his words, and quickly corrected, "No, no, the master is not good, it is Yu Da Steward, Yu Da Steward is not good!" ”

"He, what's wrong with him?" In fact, Jin Youcai already has a bottom in his heart, and now he is just making a tentative statement to see if it is consistent with his own thoughts.

"Chief Steward Yu was unconscious, and he couldn't wake up after screaming for a long time, and he, his hand, was cut off by someone!" Dongzi said with some panic.

"Oh, that's it, I know." Master Jin thought to himself that I already knew about this master, and that finger was still wrapped in a handkerchief and kept in my arms.

"Then, what should the old man do now?" Dongzi was a little dumbfounded by his master's calmness, why did he have so many things outside the situation this morning, it is said that such a big thing, the master should not react so calmly.

Jin Lao Jin Youcai listened to Dongzi's report on Yu Deshun's situation and what he thought, and when he heard Dongzi ask what to do, he replied, "What should I do, you go and wake up Yu Deshun for me now, and then raid his home, blow him and his family away, except for the clothes on his body, they are allowed to bring anything." Master Jin gritted his teeth and said, he felt that he blamed Deshun, a fool, for not knowing how to do things, so he caused trouble for himself, so now he is very resentful of Deshun.

At the beginning, it was Li Qingxiu recommended by Yu Deshun to him, saying that it was a fortune teller and said that Li Qingxiu was the life of Wangfu, and after marrying her, her husband's family would become more and more prosperous. And he also saw that Li Qingxiu also had a bit of a look, although the family was poor, but she was also a woman from a good family, and her family background was innocent, so he nodded and agreed to marry Li Qingxiu as a continuation.

Otherwise, according to the big business of the old man's family, who can't marry, he has to marry an ordinary peasant girl, and even the concubine he has ten rooms, although some of them are mentioned by the girl, and some are brought back from the Qinglou, but isn't everyone obedient to him.

Dongzi was even more dumbfounded when he listened to the master's instructions, although he knew that the master seemed to be very dissatisfied with the chief steward today, but according to the usual importance of the lord for the chief steward, there should not be much punishment, but he didn't expect the master to drive away the big steward, and he also wanted to raid the house, he was startled, and suddenly understood a truth at this moment: the master is the master, the slave is the slave, and in the decent slave, as long as the master's sentence can also become nothing.

After understanding this truth, Dongzi became more respectful to his master in the future, and even those concubines and concubines who were usually not favored were not offended, and he usually did not always bully other subordinates, but he had a good reputation.

Master Jin saw that Dongzi was stunned and didn't move again, so he said, "What are you still doing in a daze, don't you go to do something, are you waiting for the master and I will do it for you." ”

"No, it's not, the slave is going, it's going." Dongzi hurriedly saluted, and ran out with a cigarette.

Not to mention, this Dongzi is quite neat, and the matter was quickly handled by him. And in the past, this Yu steward usually only knew how to tie up with the master, and he was very harsh on his subordinates, so at this time, he committed a crime, and there were many people who fell into the well. Dongzi first asked Steward Yu to be tied to the firewood room, and then led someone to search his house.

After searching the house, she immediately took people to the village where her family lived, and drove them out directly, not allowing them to bring anything except the clothes on their bodies. and then raided his house.

Not to mention, this copy of the house really happened, he only copied a few taels of broken silver from the house of the Jin family where Yu Deshun lived, which was nothing. However, he copied more than 100 taels of silver and a deed to the house in Deshun Zhuangzi.

and his daughter-in-law and daughter couldn't copy a little gold and silver jewelry, and many of them were rewarded by Master Jin to his daughter and concubine, but they were deducted by the manager.

Looking at these things in front of him, Master Jin was furious, not to mention the more than 100 taels of silver, Yu was only 800 yuan a month, and he had to save for more than 20 years to save enough even if he didn't eat or drink. Besides, a house in the town is worth two hundred taels at least, not to mention the jewelry that should have appeared in his daughter's and concubine's room but appeared in his house, and the evidence is in front of him, can he still not know what's going on.

This damn Yu Deshun actually dared to embezzle the old man's silver, "Come on, go and beat Yu Deshun for twenty boards and then drive him out." "He originally planned to drive him out directly for the sake of Yu Deshun who had lost a finger, but he found so many things in his house, and if he didn't beat him a few boards, Master Jin would not be angry.

Give those jewelry to your daughters and concubines, although these people are not favored, they are also their own family, how can they let a slave bully!

Then he put away the deed of the town and asked people to put the silver into the treasury, which was just enough to fill the gift money to be given to the Li family tomorrow.

And Yu Deshun, the chief steward of Yu, woke up and not only had one finger cut off, but also was beaten twenty boards and driven out of the Jin family. But thanks to his daughter-in-law's usual vigilance, she has been hiding a silver ticket in the sole of her shoe.

The family relied on this fifty taels of silver ticket to show Yu Deshun an injury, and they were kicked out by the Jin family, which means that you can't stay in this Narcissus Town.

It is equivalent to Deshun's injury that is slightly better, and the family moved away from Narcissus Town. Until he left, Yu Deshun still didn't understand what mistake he had made, how could he be robbed by the master.

Not to mention the chickens and dogs jumping in the morning of the Jin family, the gate of the Fuyuan at the foot of the West Mountain has been opened, and five people came out of it first, leading five horses, and Ruoyun and others also followed.

Today is the day when Jiang Yurong leaves for home, and everyone goes out to see them off.

Outside the gate of Fuyuan, Ruoyun asked Li Da to hold a small box of silver and give it to Jiang Yusheng, which was the broken silver that she specially asked Qiu Feng to exchange yesterday, just to facilitate their use on the road.

This Jiang Yusheng did not shirk, the rules of the rivers and lakes, friends travel to send a plate to wrap up, if you don't accept it, you won't give it a good face. Generously accepted the things and thanked them.

The words of farewell had already been said last night and this morning at breakfast, and in order to hurry up and not say much, the five of them all turned over and got on their horses, said to each other and cherished each other, and then patted their horses forward.

Ruoyun and Chu Ziheng stood side by side at the door and watched from afar, watching Yeli riding the black dragon and Jiang Yurong riding away with a red face, and a trace of sadness appeared in his heart at the same time.

These days, they have become accustomed to the company of several people, and now there are suddenly two fewer people, and their hearts feel empty.

"Yun'er, I can't see them, let's go in when it's cold outside." Recently, Chu Ziheng suddenly changed his words to Ruoyun, no longer calling him cousin, but Yun'er, no one noticed this detail, because Chu Ziheng was occasionally called Ruoyun Yun'er in the past.

But Ruoyun clearly felt that there was a different lady in it, and there were some ** ingredients in this title.

She is not just an eight-year-old girl as she looks, although Chu Ziheng didn't say it, but his mind Ruoyun had already seen it. Looking at Chu Ziheng's handsome face and concerned eyes, Ruoyun thought to himself, just go with the flow, follow his feelings, and follow his heart.

If one day she suddenly finds out that she is in love with Chu Ziheng, then she will accept this relationship without hesitation.

The sadness caused by the departure of Yeli and Jiang Yurong, the little couple, slowly dissipated with the busyness of the morning.

Tian'er and Chu Ziheng want to learn from Yin Zhen, even if it is almost the New Year, Yin Zhen will not relax his teaching to them. He knew that what these two people said and did in the future would have a huge impact on the entire Great Chu, and the third prince would be the prince at the last time, and Tian'er was the only heir of Dingguo Gong, whether Dingguo Gong liked this child or not, this was also a fact that could not be changed, so he was very strict with their various studies.

And Ruoyun was also pulled by Mama Liu and Li Da to discuss various matters for the New Year, because they had just moved over, and there was no food in store at home, if they didn't purchase all the things quickly in the next few days, then when the shops were closed and went home for the New Year in a few days, then they would have no place to use the garden, even if they had money.

However, Ruoyun is not afraid of this, she has a lot of food in her space, but Mama Liu and Li Da don't know, so both of them are very anxious.

In the end, Ruoyun made a decision, and in the past few days, he has purchased all kinds of grain, meat, and vegetables, at least enough for Fuyuan to eat for the entire New Year. Then I made a list of some other things that I needed during the Chinese New Year, and I purchased them together when the time came.

Mama Liu looked at the money spent one by one, and said to Ruoyun with some distress, "Girl, although we still have a few thousand taels of silver on hand now, but there will always be a day when it will be spent, I think it is better to reduce the share of the next person." ”

Li Da also admitted next to him that the monthly silver given by the girl was too high, and he didn't need to receive the monthly case.

Ruoyun looked at the bitter gourd faces of the two of them, and couldn't help but feel depressed, this girl, I am not an exaggeration to say that I am the richest person in the world, you actually let me reduce people's monthly expenses in order to save a few taels of silver.

However, she knew that the wealth in the space could not be exposed, so she could only patiently explain, "Mama, Uncle Li, although the way to accumulate wealth lies in two aspects, open source and throttling, but I pay more attention to open source rather than just throttling. It is not a good way to reduce the monthly silver of the next person to save a few taels every month, and it also discourages the enthusiasm of the next people. Open source is the way we want to go, I have already thought about it, we will open a shop in Suzhou City in the spring of next year, and it will be fast to do business with money. ”

"Do business, girl, how can you do business with such an identity!" Mama Liu disagreed, how could a girl who was a county lord show up to do business.

"Eh, Mama, didn't I say that I went to do business myself, but let the subordinates go, didn't my mother also have a lot of subordinates to help her manage the business before?" Ruoyun said.

"That's fine, as long as the girl doesn't show up. The big families in Beijing do let their subordinates come forward to do business, and if they don't do a few businesses, they can't maintain the expenses of the big families. "Mama Liu understands this, and she just needs Ruoyun not to show up.

Ruoyun and Mama Liu reached a consensus on this, she is impatient to do those tedious things in business, and she is still comfortable to be a behind-the-scenes boss.

"Then girl, what kind of business are we going to do, if we open a shop at the beginning of the year, we should visit this shop first, the shop in Suzhou City is very expensive, if you don't find it in advance, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it when you use it." Li Da analyzed on the side.

"Yes, what Uncle Li said makes sense, so let's do it, I need to go to Suzhou City a few times to buy things recently, so I'll go with you to have a look at it then." Let's open a toy shop. "Ruoyun Road.

"Toy shop!" Mama Liu's eyes lit up. "Is it like the young master's little wooden horse? That's ironclad to make money, you see how much the young master likes that Trojan horse, it is estimated that the young master of other people's families will like it too. ”

"Yes, it's a similar toy, but the Trojan horse can't be taken out, because as soon as this thing spreads to the capital, my cousin and uncle will know that we are in Suzhou. Anyway, it's something similar to that, Uncle Li, the craftsmen I asked you to inquire about should also be hurried, and it will be up to them to make it when the time comes, by the way, the female red masters will also find some, let's not only make toys that the young master likes, but also make some of the ones that the girls like. ”

"Knowing the girl, this female red master should be easier to find. I'll go to the town this afternoon to find my third uncle, and I'll inquire by the way. Li Daying admitted.

"Okay, then let's do it first, you guys go and get busy." After discussing the matter, they went their separate ways. Ruoyun also began to hold a pen and design her toys based on the memories of her previous life.

In fact, Ruoyun is not the most profitable to open a toy store in her consciousness, she has a lot of more profitable ideas, but the cost of those initial investments is too high, and the money left on the surface is not enough to invest at all, so she can only open this first, and then wait for more money in the future, and then put those ideas into action one by one.

*******************************************************

Just after noon, Li Manjiang's house in Narcissus Town had an unexpected guest.

Although this Li Manjiang has been working as a shopkeeper in a grocery store for many years, it is only a very small grocery store, there is no oil and water, although it is a decent job, but the family is not very wealthy, and his house in the town is still purchased with the help of his father-in-law's family.

There were three main rooms in a very small courtyard, plus a kitchen made of adobe in the courtyard. But in any case, he is much better than the average family, although the house is not big, it is enough to live, and he has a fixed monthly income, which can be regarded as a well-off level.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the small courtyard, and Hu Shi was in a bad mood recently because of the affairs of her husband and son, so she just finished washing the dishes and chopsticks used for eating, took a rag and wiped her hands, and went to open the door, "Who?" "I thought to myself, who is this, it's annoying to hang out at noon.

"Is this Li Qingjie's house?" A more urbane-sounding voice sounded outside the door.

Hearing this voice, Hu Shi immediately became energetic, because she heard it, this voice was her son Qingjie's master in the school, and she had to go to her master's house every New Year to give gifts, so she was very familiar with this voice.

Hula opened the courtyard door suddenly, and Hu Shi said with a smile on his face, "Oh, it's Master Chen, why do you have time to come to the cold house, please inside, please inside." "Seeing Chen Fuzi, a scholar, even Hu's speech was very literate.

With a smile on his face, he invited people in, and shouted to the main room, "Xianggong, Qingjie, come out quickly, Master Chen is here." ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Manjiang and Li Qingjie walked out of the room, and when they saw Master Chen, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but they wondered in their hearts, didn't Master Chen have already dropped Qingjie out of school, why did he come to the door again at this time.

Hu Shi didn't have so much thought, she just thought that Master Chen came to the door, so she had to entertain Master Chen well, and coax Master Chen to be happy, maybe she could let Qingjie go to the school again.

Several people politely invited Master Chen into the hall, and Hu even took out the tea leaves that she was usually reluctant to drink, and she knew that people who read like to drink tea or something.

Because Master Chen's visit was so sudden, several people didn't pay attention to it, and Master Chen, who usually saw them without smiling, had been smiling since he entered their house today, and the scholar behind him was carrying two packs of gifts.

Looking at this gift, although it is not a valuable thing, it is two packs of cheap snacks. But since ancient times, students have been filial to their teachers, how can any teacher give gifts to students, this time Master Chen also brought gifts, which gave them a big face.

After the guests and hosts in the hall were seated, Master Chen asked the servant to present the gift and said, "The first time I come to the door, it is a little meaning, but it is not a tribute." ”

When Hu Shi saw the gift, he looked happy and thanked him happily. But Li Manshan and Li Qingjie, father and son, are even more confused, what kind of medicine is this Master Chen selling in this gourd today?

Li Manjiang wanted to resign, but Hu had already accepted the gift first, Li Manjiang's eyelids jumped, and he swallowed the words of resignation. Hu Shi took it all, who else could he do.

Li Qingjie has not read books in vain over the years, so he quickly got up and thanked Master Chen, and then poured a cup of tea for Master Chen.

Chen Fuzi seemed to be very satisfied with Li Qingjie's sensibility, and nodded with a smile, "Qingjie, that day, it was the people who misunderstood the meaning of being a teacher and passed on the wrong news, I have already punished him, don't take it to heart." Now that you can be admitted to Xiucai, how can such a good student be willing to drive you away, pack up your things tomorrow and continue to come to the school. ”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three people were different, Hu was surprised, Li Qingjie was a little stunned, and Li Manshan looked pensive. They knew that with such a big matter, it was impossible for the subordinates to pass on the wrong words, so what was the reason for Master Chen to change his mind? Is it because Qingjie is too good?

At least Hu had such an idea, she felt that her son was too good, and Master Chen was willing to give up such a good student, so she came to clear it in person, and stepped forward to thank her with a happy face.

But Li Manshan and Li Qingjie know their own catties, although Qingjie has good grades in the school, but it is not so good that the master offends the Jin family for him.

Chen Fuzi saw that Li Manjiang and Li Qingjie didn't speak, and he was a little anxious, how could he explain to the Jin family if he couldn't complete the task, and then his face was also a little anxious, "Could it be that Qingjie has found a better school, and he can't look down on Chen's small temple?" ”

Seeing that Chen Fuzi was a little anxious, Li Manjiang and Li Qingjie hurriedly denied it, forget it, it's not a bad thing to let Qingjie study anyway, so they hurriedly agreed.

Seeing that the Li family's father and son agreed, Master Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained in a serious tone, letting Li Qingjie remember that he must go over early tomorrow morning, and then took the little servant to get up and say goodbye.

After Master Chen left, Hu praised Qingjie with a smile on his face, all because his son was too good, so Master personally came to invite him.

Then he happily opened the two packets of gifts, which were just a few cheap pastries, and Hu regarded them as if they were treasures. This was given by the son's master, what a face-saving thing.

And Li Manjiang and Li Qingjie, father and son, sat speechless at each other, they always felt that this matter was a little strange. Li Manjiang suddenly felt a shock in his heart, could it be that his eldest brother sent Xiu'er to the Jin family for the sake of Qingjie's future, so Master Chen would find Qingjie again! How can this big brother be so confused!

The more Li Manjiang thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he immediately became restless, and at this moment he couldn't wait to fly back to his eldest brother's house to ask about the situation.

Li Qingjie also said on the side, "Dad, look at this, is it the uncle's ......" He didn't say the latter words, but obviously he and Li Manjiang had some consistent thoughts.

"Qingjie, hurry up and put on the ox cart, let's go back to the village!" Li Manjiang couldn't sit still and was about to go out.

Hu Shi, who was still happy, heard Li Manjiang's words, and suddenly changed his face, "What are you going to do, you are not allowed to go, it is your eldest brother who sent Li Qingxiu to the Jin family, that is also Li Qingxiu's blessing, and it can be regarded as your eldest brother has a little conscience, and he did not delay our Qingjie for his daughter." ”

"How can you say that, this woman, that's my own niece, Qingjie, can a young man rely on his cousin to have a future?" Li Manjiang was anxious and angry, pushed away the Hu family who was blocking the door and walked out.

"Qingjie, look at your father!" Hu was pushed by Li Manjiang, and he didn't dare to step forward, so he hurriedly pulled his son as an ally.

Although this Hu family does not know the reason, but Li Qingjie has followed his grandfather a lot since he was a child, and his grandfather is a relatively clear person who has been a fast catcher, so Qingjie was not led crooked by the Hu family, and after listening to the Hu family's words, Li Qingjie said, "Mother, let us go, see if this can be stopped?" ”

"Stop, how can you stop it, the Jin family is also something that our family can afford to provoke!" Seeing that his son didn't support him, Hu Shi shouted anxiously. RS
