"A few days ago, your mother met Miss Fourth of Lord Lin Shangshu's family, she is outstanding in terms of character and appearance, and she will not be wronged in the future." Although King Qing was a little unhappy, he was very happy to find such a powerful Yue family for Mu Qiyue. However, he also heard a lot of rumors in the market, and for the reputation of the palace, he had to make some appearances to outsiders.

Moreover, since the family wants to marry the Lin Mansion, some conditions have been agreed in advance. He nodded and agreed when he was able to confirm that Lin Qingxue would be able to agree with King Qing's Mansion after he got married. If it was a person like Lin Zhu who couldn't be completely controlled, no matter how much Mu Qiyue liked it, Prince Qing would not agree.

Not only Princess Qing, but also Prince Qing gradually discovered that Mu Qiyue was not someone they could easily handle, and at the same time, he also had a large amount of wealth in his hands. If Qingwangfu has this money, then many things can go on smoothly.

Instead of being like now, although the surface of King Qing's Mansion is still the same as in the past, Prince Qing is knowledgeable, and the income in the house is not as good as a year. The two sisters-in-law have not made any big names, the resources of the palace have been used a lot, but the results are few and pitiful, at present, the boss still has some achievements, and he will inherit the Qingwang Mansion in the future. Needless to say, the third child is better at eating, drinking and having fun than anyone else, but when it comes to business, he is useless.

Therefore, Prince Qing will hit the idea on this fourth son who has not been treated by him since he was a child. And the best way to control him is to find a daughter-in-law who can control family affairs.

Until Prince Qing left the front hall and returned to his courtyard with Princess Qing. Mu Qiyue also did not express any opinions. However, depending on the situation, even if he can express his opinion, he will not be adopted by Prince Qing and Princess Qing.

Boss Mu and Boss Mu said congratulations to Mu Qiyue hypocritically with envy and hatred on their faces. With unwillingness in his eyes, he also walked away together.

As everyone knows, Mu Qiyue's face has not been good from the beginning. Whether it was Qing Wangye's words belittling Lin Zhu, or thinking that he had appointed the fourth lady of the Lin family for him, although it was a verbal agreement, Prince Qing had a tough tone that was not negotiable. So no matter what aspect it is, Mu Qiyue will not agree.

However, the current situation is obviously not the time to go against Prince Qing. It can be seen from his momentum just now. Prince Qing attaches great importance to this family affair. He wouldn't allow anyone to mess around right under his nose.

In the past, Mu Qiyue's methods were okay to fool Princess Qing, but it was a little inadequate in front of Prince Qing, after all, Jiang was old and spicy. And King Congqing specially called Mu Qiyue. solemnly mentioned this family matter. also deliberately reminded Mu Qiyue.

Although Mu Qiyue was very angry. But there was no immediate refutation. It's just that this matter should be considered in the long run. He didn't expect Lin Qingxue to do such a thing, after being caught by himself. I even want to marry myself. And the Lin family is also doing this by her, which is incredible.

In fact, Mu Qiyue didn't know the Dao, and Lin Qingxue wanted to marry into the Qingwang Mansion, and only the Zhao family knew the Dao. Lin Qingxue only appeared a few times in front of Princess Qing and curry favor with her, and by chance, she was brought to Princess Changmin.

Most of the people in the Lin family still don't know about it. And the Zhao family only planned to wait until the Qingwang Mansion sent someone to propose marriage, and then announce it to the people in the family. Before the matter was gone, she didn't dare to publicize it.

Prince Qing and Princess Qing only have this plan. Specific things, and no suitable arrangements were made. Their main purpose is to make Princess Changmin's intention to support Mu Qiyue to marry a daughter-in-law they don't like through this incident.

Therefore, for Mu Qiyue, there is still time to change the decision made by Prince Qing. It's just that this has to be done more secretly.

On the other hand, after Lin Qingxue returned to her home, she was also very excited. After being recognized by Princess Qing, she has been in a state of euphoria. Although she met Lin Zhu in Princess Changmin's mansion and received a little cold reception, it did not affect her excitement.

Her long-standing wish was about to come true, and although she didn't see Mu Qiyue in King Qing's mansion, Princess Qing's faintly satisfied attitude also made her blush. Sitting alone in the room, shyly twisting the handkerchief. I don't know what is going on in my head, but looking at her flushed cheeks from time to time, I can guess that she is probably thinking about a better life after the goal is achieved.

But Zhao is not as optimistic as Lin Qingxue, not that she is dissatisfied with Qingwangfu or Mu Qiyue. It's because he can't stand his daughter's embarrassment and goes to befriend Princess Qing privately, will he make his husband and Old Man Lin angry. She's worried about that.

Although she constantly comforted herself, Qing Wangfu is a relative of the emperor, and her daughter marrying into the palace must enjoy endless glory and wealth. And the identity will also be different. But there was a faint uneasiness in her heart, especially when she heard Lin Qingxue talk about what happened in Princess Changmin's mansion, for some reason, she always felt that Lin Zhu would be a big obstacle to her daughter's family affairs.

And every time Lin Zhu is mentioned, it always makes Zhao have an indescribable feeling of emptiness. But the youngest son is very good with her, every time he comes back from Lin Zhu, he is always happy, and he likes it even more than seeing his own sister. So the Zhao family hated Lin Zhu even more for no reason.

Although the Zhao family and Qingwangfu reached an agreement, Qingwangfu did not make further moves, which made Lin Qingxue a little anxious. She kept urging Zhao to find out about Mu Qiyue's news. But they found nothing.

However, he didn't hear the news that Mu Qiyue had any intersection with Lin Zhu again, which made Lin Qingxue feel a lot more relieved. thought that Princess Qing's words to Lin Zhu had played a certain role, so that Lin Zhu retreated, and did not have the cheekiness to pester Mu Qiyue again.

In fact, Lin Zhu was already very busy because of the affairs of the villa and grange under his name, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to the careful thoughts of Qingwangfu and Lin Qingxue.

As the demand for Zhuji sake continues to increase, Lin Zhu also has to make some adjustments to the number of special grains planted in his grange again. The planting of special rice and special sorghum has been increased.

But in this way, the number of fields in Xiaowang Village is somewhat insufficient. So before the spring ploughing began, Lin Zhu asked Feng Yuanbo to look for a suitable large-scale grange to see if there was a chance to buy it.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to make a series of adjustments to some of the construction of the bamboo garden. At present, the bamboo garden has become a vegetable planting base for Lin Zhu, but this is not attached to the purpose of Lin Zhu's construction of the bamboo garden. Therefore, the bamboo garden still needs to be further rebuilt and improved.

After a winter of publicity, hot spring vegetables are no longer a rare item. Of course, this is also the emperor's intention to spread the news of his departure, even if Lin Zhu has a little dissatisfaction in his heart, there is no way.

Fortunately, the vegetable seeds in the hot spring Zhuangzi are unique to themselves, and the quality can be higher than others. So Lin Zhu is not worried about this. However, growing vegetables next to the hot springs is a bit of a waste. She herself wanted to have a leisure manor, but she was turned into a vegetable garden by herself, and the chagrin in her heart can be imagined.

But before finding a good way to grow out-of-season vegetables, Lin Zhu also had no good way. You can only take one step at a time.

Under Feng Yuanbo's hard work, he finally found a relatively large grange before spring ploughing. Although it is some distance from the capital, it is better than a relatively large area, and it echoes the requirements of Lin Zhu. It's just that the fields are a little barren, although there is a village on the grange, but the population is small, and there are many old and weak, I heard that the previous owner oppressed too much, and many young and middle-aged people fled the village.

Not to mention the minions who were in the hands of their masters in advance, most of them were sick from hard work, and almost all of them did not live to be thirty years old. Because of the vast land, many fields were not well cultivated, so the man thought about selling this village.

Even so, the man offered Feng Yuanbo the price of good land. After listening to this, Feng Yuanbo did not answer him affirmatively, but only said that he would go back and talk to the master before making a decision. And he hung the man for a month.

However, since the beginning of winter, there is less rain and snow, and many people expect a major drought in the spring. Sure enough, a month before the spring ploughing, there was not even a little rain. Therefore, there are rumors in the vicinity of the grange that there will be a severe drought in the spring of this year, and the harvest may be greatly reduced, and there will be no harvest at all.

It was already a grange with dismal returns, but with this rumor, even fewer people came to the tenant farm.

The owner of the grange couldn't sit still. He had already decided to sell the Grange, and of course he didn't want the price to be lower in the future. Therefore, he asked someone to find Feng Yuanbo and took the initiative to reduce the price to a reasonable price.

One acre of fertile land is ten taels of silver, two taels of silver is one acre of second-class field, and two taels of silver is one acre of third-class field. His fields, not to mention good fields, are not much even second-class fields, most of which are barren and weeds grow. Without a year or two, it is impossible to cultivate and produce normally. Even if it is a third-class field, it is a little lost.

Therefore, at the average price of three taels of silver per mu of land, Feng Yuanbo bought a grange of ten hectares of land from him.

With the fields, then more people are needed to cultivate them in this era of low productivity. The number of people in the village on this grange is too small. Moreover, there is no semi-labor, and there is very little that can be used, so Lin Zhu decided to buy more people to come in to meet the needs of farming.

In the absence of patent protection, this kind of direct buying behavior can also ensure that some of Lin Zhu's secrets are not easily known by outsiders, so Lin Zhu was a little resistant to buying and selling people as goods from the beginning, and now it can accept it for such reasons.

After all, the master has the power of life and death over these people who are bought, and few people will have the heart to resist. It's also easier to manage. (To be continued......)
