(In the second half of the previous chapter, a little background of Han Lee's land purchase is added, and those who have seen it can take a look again, and it is okay not to watch it, and it does not affect the plot.) ）

It's the New Year in the blink of an eye.

This year's New Year, the Li family's six-bedroom, seven-bedroom, eight-bedroom, nine-bedroom, and four-bedroom were together.

The general trend of the world, together for a long time, must be divided, and for a long time must be united. The same is true of the family, after many years of separation, the Li family has come together again.

And on the side of the sixth room, because of Li Jincai's matter, the sixth old man had a serious illness. And Brother Run'er lost his father, and the whole person seemed a lot depressed, Aunt Jinhua didn't see it as a matter, so she temporarily handed over the property of Liufang in Li Zhuang to Zhuangtou Changgen to take care of. She took the sixth old man and Brother Run, and also moved to the ancestral house.

After all, it is a family, and when they talk together, they can be relieved.

Throughout the New Year, the festive atmosphere, coupled with the concubines who walked around each other, the Li family is now full of joy.

Brother Xi took Brother You and Brother Run to the house to uncover the tiles all day long.

If it weren't for the Chinese New Year, if you don't want to beat the children, according to Zhao's temperament, these three children would be indispensable for a meal of fried shredded pork.

In this way, it is February in the blink of an eye.

"Zhenniang, this time to Nanjing, how many people do you plan to bring? Talk to Seventh Grandmother, and Seventh Grandmother will help you arrange it. In the ink workshop, Zhen Niang accompanied the seventh grandmother and her grandfather around the workshop.

This has started spring, the peak season of the ink shop is here again, and now the entire Li ink workshop, from lighting cigarettes to ink, turning and drying, etc., can not find an idler.

"Well, I'm not familiar with the situation in Nanjing at the moment, so I don't need to bring many people first." Zhen Niang said. Then he pondered: "Sister-in-law Ma has been following me these days, and I also use it." Let's take Sister-in-law's family of three. Brother Ma is not only a good hand at pounding ink, but also has a lot of strength. He is indispensable for this journey. The little girl is diligent with her hands and feet, her eyebrows and eyes are flexible, and she can also follow me to help me run errands. ”

Xiaoya is the little girl of the sister-in-law. Sister-in-law Ma said in Zhenniang's ear several times that she wanted her to be with Zhenniang for a while, and Zhenniang also liked it, so she took this opportunity to mention it.

"Well, Sister-in-law's family of three is fine." The seventh grandmother also nodded, these three were in her expectation, after all, Zhen Niang had been in the ink shop since she entered the ink shop. Sister-in-law Ma followed her. What's the matter, it's the person next to Zhen Niang.

"Then it's Brother Zheng, he learned the method of boiling glue and ink from Master Qin, Nanjing's Mozhuang definitely needs such a person, plus he has to follow Steward Shao to Nanjing twice a year, he is familiar with Nanjing, and he also has connections in some industries, I think it is appropriate for him to go." Zhenniang thought about it and said.

"Yes, even if you don't say this, I will suggest it. Most of the industries in Nanjing are also dealing with Jingming's house, and with him going with you, you can quickly grasp the situation in Nanjing. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Li's face sank: "In recent years. Nanjing's industry not only has less and less income, but also asked me to pay a lot of repair costs here, which Steward Shao thinks is not right. But he is just a housekeeper after all, and the reason given by Jingming is also reasonable. I don't have to say anything more, you go over this time. Just check it out for me. ”

"Haode, I made a note of it." Zhenniang nodded.

At that time, the Li family's ink village in Nanjing was quite large, although it was later sold because of the tribute to ink, but there was still a part of the real estate kept, not to mention that there should be a lot of income when the store was born.

"By the way, Seventh Grandmother, I still have to bring one person, Ergou, this businessman, it is inevitable to deal with some idlers on the street, the second dog is familiar with this aspect, and it is easier to deal with the trouble in this area with him." Zhen Niang remembered something and said again.

"Well, I didn't expect that, it's no problem for Ergou to go." The Seventh Grandmother nodded. Indeed, doing business is not only about dealing with people in the official face, but also about these three religions and nine streams, and it is just right for the second dog to go.

"That's all, that's it." Zhen Niang thought about it again, if she played the front station, these few people would be enough, and when the ink village was established, she would have to send ink workers here.

"Then I'll recommend you one more person." Seeing that Zhen Niang had no other candidates, the seventh grandmother said again.

"Who? Seven grandmothers. Zhenniang asked strangely.

"It's your second aunt." The Seventh Grandmother said with a smile.

Is it the second aunt? Zhen Niang was a little surprised, the second aunt is a widow and generally won't go out easily. However, when Zhen Niang thought about it, she understood the hard work of the seventh grandmother.

When she arrives in Nanjing, she will definitely have to deal with her aunt. Besides, the Jingming family who takes care of the industry in Nanjing, judging from the name, should be the same generation as their father, although this kinship is a little far away, but the generation cannot be changed. Therefore, with the second aunt to support the waist, the second aunt can come forward to deal with it, which is much more convenient for himself.

In addition, there are many literati in Nanjing, so the literati custom ink is more popular, and these custom inks have to be carved at the time of many times, and the second aunt is a hand-carved plate jishu is Jingdong Uncle is amazed, and the Mozhuang side must also be needed.

It can be said that the seventh grandmother was very thoughtful in sending out the second aunt.

"Thank you Seventh Grandmother, it's just too troublesome for the second aunt." Zhenniang said with gratitude.

Although they all help the ink workshop, it is obvious that the second aunt was arranged by the seventh grandmother to support her.

"What's the trouble here, I already told your second aunt a few days ago, and she agreed, so I don't have to stay in this big house every day and accompany my wife to get moldy." The Seventh Grandmother quipped.

After saying this, several people discussed the itinerary again.

Zhenniang then took Sister-in-law Ma to buy some gifts on Sibao Street, after all, there was a family of aunts in Nanjing. In addition, as a Hui businessman, several directors of the Chamber of Commerce also have to visit, as well as a few friends of my grandfather in the past, and they also have to take a trip, so the necessary gifts are indispensable.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered Sibao Street, the whole street was crowded to Huiyuan Qianzhuang.

Since the Li Jincai incident, Sun Baiyi has also been implicated, but Huiyuan Qianzhuang used Sun Baiyi's household registration to register, and Wang Cuiqiao had to spend some effort to help Sun Baiyi settle down. After the fact, though. Sun Baiyi is said to have been thrown on the ship by Wang Cuiqiao, and now the head of Huiyuan Money Village is Sun Baiyi's younger brother Sun Qianyi.

And Wang Cuiqiao took advantage of this incident. also came out of the backstage and is on the road to whitewashing. Now the locals know that the owner of Huiyuan Money Village is Wang Cuiqiao.

Coupled with Wang Cuiqiao's contacts for many years, Huiyuan Money Village has now become the largest money village in the county. It is said that next, Wang Cuiqiao will also go to Nanjing to open a branch.

Wang Cuiqiao was originally born in Qinhuaihe, Nanjing, and Nanjing is her home field.

"What's going on over there?" Zhenniang asked a passer-by.

"The Sun family marries a daughter, and the Tian family welcomes the family." The man replied.

Only then did Zhenniang understand that today was the day when Sun Yuejuan married into the Tian family.

Then Zhen Niang stood at the door of a paper shop, and looked at the door of Huiyuan Qianzhuang, Tian Benchang was wearing a groom's red robe. Riding on a horse, he was also in good spirits.

"Look at the bride, the bride is out." At this time, the crowd in front of him was shouting.

At this time, Sun Qianyi carried Sun Yuejuan on his back and got on the sedan chair, and with a string of firecrackers from hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren, the team of greeting relatives went on the road again. A group of five or six-year-olds were chasing after each other and giggling.

There are thousands of paths in life.

Sun Yuejuan has since married into the house, and Zhenniang is about to embark on a trip to Nanjing.

February 10.

At that time, Zhenniang got up early and went downstairs. I smelled the fragrance of bean yellow buns.

Zhao's, Zheng's, Du's and others got up in the middle of the night and scalded her with a package of bean yellow buns.

From Huizhou to Nanjing. Although it is close by land, there are many bandits on the land route, and it is not safe. So in the end, it was decided to take the waterway.

From Xin'an River to Hangzhou. Then to Suzhou, from the Suzhou Canal to Nanjing. This trip takes ten days and a half months, and the dry food on the road must be prepared.

"Otherwise. Zhen Niang still doesn't go, the girl's house, it's always not very good to be outstanding, besides, this is running outside, in case ......" When it was time to set off, Zhao suddenly felt a little uneasy.

She thought that Jingfu went to Suzhou that year, and it was so early that she sent Jingfu out, and Jingfu never came back.

The so-called once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of well flies. This was the case with the Zhao family at this time. With Li Jingfu's matter, the Zhao family is worried.

Zhen Niang was already carrying a package at this time, and when she heard Zhao's words, she understood that her mother was thinking of her father.

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter is sitting in Jia and not a businessman, just staying in Nanjing City, what can I do? I see, there really has to be a chance that one day I will suddenly bring you a son-in-law through the door. Zhen Niang smiled comfortingly.

"This dead girl, no face, no skin, no shame." Zhao was amused by Zhen Niang's words, and he also knew that at this time, it was impossible for Zhen Niang not to leave.

waved his hand as if he was angry: "Let's go, save yourself from being angry with me at home." ”

Zhen Niang smiled and waved her hand, said goodbye to her family, and then went to meet everyone at the ink shop.

"The ugly woman is going too?" When she arrived at the ink workshop, Zhen Niang found that there was another person in the group, and that was the ugly woman.

"What, you're not welcome?" The ugly woman looked cold, a little unkind.

"How come, the ugly woman is naturally haode if she wants to go." Zhenniang nodded. The ugly woman can appear in the team of this line, needless to say, since her seventh grandmother agreed, she will not disagree.

"When you're old, you can go out and see it while you can still walk around, so you won't be able to move after tomorrow, and it's impossible to go out and see." The ugly woman explained coldly again, and was helped into the carriage by the second dog.

Zhen Niang and the others also got into the carriage and took the carriage with them, a total of three carriages together.

After saying goodbye to everyone, the carriage set off and went straight to the Yuliang Wharf outside the city.

Xiaoya sat on the edge of the carriage, and from time to time lifted the carriage curtain to look out, this was the first time she had gone far away.

In a blink of an eye, I arrived at the Sanli Pavilion outside the city.

From a distance, I saw a chaste archway, a high stone arch, but there were a few corners missing on the side, which looked a little dilapidated.

"The Luo family is defeated, and no one has repaired this archway if it is broken." Sister-in-law Ma said with a little regret at this time.

"This is the Luo family's chaste archway?" Zhen Niang asked curiously, speaking of the Luo family, Zhen Niang remembered Luo Wenqian again, and since the last letter, there has been no more information. Outside the gates, it is now the territory of the Tartars. I don't know what kind of business he does there?

"Yes, speaking of which, this archway has been established for decades, and the Luo family has a daughter named Luo Mengzhen, who makes ink very high with one hand. It's a pity that fate is not good, before the door, the fiancé died, I didn't think that this Luo Meng was really fierce, and burned himself to death in the boudoir with a fire. At that time, when the prefect learned of this, he also praised loudly, and went to the court, so there was this archway. Sister-in-law Ma explained.

"Oh." Zhen Niang nodded, she had been to the archway in her previous life, and almost every one of them had a story that was incomprehensible to future generations, but was pushed away in this era.

Turning her face sideways, Zhenniang suddenly saw that the ugly woman had her eyes closed, and there was a faint crystal under her eyes, which seemed to be tears.

"Ugly woman, what's wrong?" Zhenniang asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing, the old wind is eyed, and there are some tears in the wind." The ugly woman said lightly.

"Little girl." Lowered the curtain. Zhenniang hurriedly instructed the little girl sitting on the side of the car.

"Yes, Virgin Maiden." Xiaoya hurriedly lowered the curtain and tied the curtain tightly with a rope to prevent the wind from running in.

Then no one spoke in the carriage, and the only sound was ruts and horses' hooves.

After a while, the carriage arrived at Yuliang Wharf. The Li family had already bought the ferry ticket, and two people carrying bags came over to help the Li family carry the salute onto the boat.

At this moment, several officials on the shore escorted a few prisoners passing by.

"What are these prisoners doing?" On the side, a few out-of-town businessmen inquired.

"I don't know, huh? This is the biggest case in Huizhou last year, and the leader is the impostor Jinyi Wei, who was abducted and deceived all the way, and I heard that many people have suffered losses, but Zuihou has planted a fight in our Huizhou Mansion. The latter is the co-defendant, who was originally a son-in-law of the Li family, who ate things inside and out, and actually conspired with others to trap the Li family. deserves it, I heard that this is going to be distributed to Qiongzhou. An informed foaming mouth frothed at the mouth.

This obviously has some good feelings with the Li family, but he is willing to help the Li family speak.

"By the way, a few days ago, there was a lady with a child, who said that she was the girl who was the first offender. It's really a sin, I was also implicated, and I was sold by the official, as if Tian Rongchang of the Tian family bought it. Tian Rongchang's kid is a bunch of male thieves and female prostitutes in his stomach, and I look at him uneasy and kind. At this time, the idler who was waiting for an errand to find a bag on the side also came over and said with a tongue.

Zhen Niang happened to be standing next to these people at this time, and when she heard this, she was a little stunned, but she didn't expect that the Su family was actually sold by the official and bought by Tian Rongchang.

Regarding the verdict of Su's brother and Li Jincai, Zhenniang knows about it and deserves it.

It's just that I didn't expect the Su family to end up like this, but it is reasonable to think about it carefully, the Su family's brother committed a big case, coupled with Li Jincai's layout, the Su family is caught in the middle, and it is inevitable to be implicated.
