After Shen Yue went to Jianchuan, Qianhusuo looked calm on the surface, but it always made people feel a little depressed.

The invisible wrestling between the two sentenced hundreds of households made everyone feel unhappy, but most people had to participate in it

Just like Chen Xiaoting, he can only stand on Zhou Wenzhu's side, and he has no choice at all, even if he has Shen Yue as his backer.

Although he and Zhou Wenzhu are listed in the same camp, Chen Xiaoting is the chief banner after all, so it is naturally impossible to end every fight.

Therefore, many times Chen Xiaoting can dodge and hide, and will never take the initiative to rush forward.

He has many qualifications, but the small flag officer below is not so lucky, and can only be used as a tool for fighting.

Take Liu Jianping as an example, after Zhou Wenzhu ordered him to seal up a certain shop, Liu Shi'an saw Liu Jianping and scolded him.

Although Zhou Wenzhu found the field for Liu Jianping later, Liu Jianping also suffered the crime, and it was unspeakable that he suffered.

Although there are a lot of intrigues, it is still the same sentence, Zhou Wenzhu and Liu Shi'an fought but did not break, and maintained the superficial peace.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed, and the weather became warmer after April, and Chen Xiaoting also returned to Luyang after eight days away.

He personally led the team to inspect the following prefectures, and also found his old boss Zhang Zhenshan to drink, and the two also discussed the situation of the thousand households.

Originally, Chen Xiaoting thought that Zhang Zhenshan would warn him not to get involved in the fight, but who knew that the other party asked him to help Zhou Wenzhu.

The reason is very simple, if Chen Xiaoting wants to continue to rise, he still needs to be supported from above.

But for Shen Yue, the palms and backs of his hands are all meat, so the favoritism that Chen Xiaoting can get will be limited, so he needs to have another backer.

Zhou Wenzhu is his old boss, and the two are naturally the partners of cooperation.

Liu Shi'an's promotion will only promote people from his line, which Chen Xiaoting will definitely prevent.

Walking in the alley home, Chen Xiaoting still remembered Zhang Zhenshan's last words at this time.

At that time, Zhang Zhenshan said: "Xiaoting, Lord Qianhu has not been here for more than a month, what do you say he has done?"

"We can't imagine the pattern of a thousand households, but it will never be limited to Yongxi, do you understand?"

In fact, Chen Xiaoting didn't quite understand, and finally Zhang Zhenshan woke him up and said: "Lord Qianhu may leave Yongxi in less than two years, now you understand?"

Now Chen Xiaoting really understood that after Shen Yue left, if he still wanted to go down the official road, he had to find another backer in Yongxi.

"So, if you don't fight, you can't fight!" Chen Xiaoting sighed.

Then he knocked on the door, and then Zheng Xuan'er's voice came from inside, and then the door was opened.

"Brother Xiaoting, you're back!" Zheng Xuan'er was holding a rag at this time, and she still had an apron tied around her waist.

It's nearly noon, and it's time to cook.

After entering the door, Chen Xiaoting asked with a smile, "Xuan'er, what are you doing delicious?"

Zheng Xuan'er followed Chen Xiaoting's side, and then said, "I just washed the rice, and I'm washing the vegetables!"

Holding Zheng Xuan'er's hands, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but say: "I said a long time ago to buy a maid, I don't want you to do these things yourself!"

Chen Xiaoting is not short of money now, he has at least more than 1,000 taels of silver in his hand, and he can afford to buy ten maids.

Although they have been married for a long time, they were held by Chen Xiaoting in the courtyard, and Zheng Xuan'er still showed a shy expression.

Then I heard her say: "Brother Xiaoting, I can do these things, and I don't need others to do them!"

Speaking of discounts, Zheng Xuan'er also complained: "Brother Xiaoting, now the price of everything in the city is rising, and the person who delivered rice and noodles two days ago complained to me, saying that the silver is not enough!"

After Chen Xiaoting left home, Zheng Xuaner lived at home alone, so it was naturally inconvenient to go out to purchase.

So Chen Xiaoting handed over the matter to Liang Hong, after all, Liang Hong opened a restaurant, and he had to buy a lot of ingredients every day.

Now hearing that Liang Hong's people are so ignorant, Chen Xiaoting's face immediately collapsed, and then he heard him say with a dark face: "These bastards, how much can the price increase be, they dare to chew their tongues!"

The money for buying things is all paid by Liang Hong's side, so whether the price increases or not has nothing to do with Chen Xiaoting.

But now Liang Hong's people are actually complaining about the price increase, what do they mean? Don't want to pay?

Seeing that Chen Xiaoting was very angry, Zheng Xuan'er hurriedly said: "Brother Xiaoting, don't be angry, they are just complaining casually, and I heard Aunt Zhang next door say that prices have indeed risen a lot recently!"

Zheng Xuan'er is a kind girl, Chen Xiaoting naturally won't let her worry, so she said: "Since Xuan'er intercedes, I won't clean up those guys!"

The two of them went into the house at this time, and after pouring tea for Chen Xiaoting, Zheng Xuan'er stood in place with some twisting.

Picking up the teacup, Chen Xiaoting asked, "Is there anything else?"

Zheng Xuan'er said: "Brother Xiaoting, my father and mother have a letter...... Said you wanted to come and see me! ”

Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but put down the teacup, and then said, "Come on, what's wrong?"

Did Zheng Xuan'er think that she didn't welcome the old couple of the Zheng family?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but smile bitterly, his husband was inevitably too incompetent, and he was actually such an image in his wife's heart.

So Chen Xiaoting said: "If they want to come, they will stay for a few more days, and when the time comes, I will take them around the city!"

Compared with Guangde, Luyang City has more places to go.

Seeing Chen Xiaoting's attitude, Zheng Xuan'er immediately showed a happy smile, and then went to the kitchen.

In the United States, a hot meal will come up.

Although Chen Xiaoting is used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas outside, every time he eats the dishes made by Zheng Xuan'er, he has a different taste...... It's a home away from home.

After arriving in Luyang, in fact, Chen Xiaoting was outside many times, and it was more than ten or twenty days as soon as he went out.

Even if he stays in Luyang, more often than not, he stays in Yamen, and he rarely actually spends time at home.

"Xuan'er, what do you watch me do, you also eat ......" Saying this, Chen Xiaoting also added a piece of meat to Zheng Xuan'er's bowl.

Zheng Xuan'er smiled, and then also put the dishes in Chen Xiaoting's bowl, this is her happiness.

They were eating happily here, but Liang Hong in Nancheng had an earthy face.

In the past half a month, prices have skyrocketed, resulting in more and more difficult business, and the profit of the restaurant has decreased.

This is not the most important thing, the rise in prices has led to a downgrade in consumption, and the business of several streets under Liang Hong will be affected, and the collection of regular money this month will not be so smooth.

Looking through the account books, Liang Hong couldn't help muttering: "What's going on these days, prices will rise when they say they are rising!"

At first, the price of food increased, and now the price has doubled absolutely, which is absolutely abnormal.

However, Liang Hong's ability and level are relatively limited, and he can neither solve the current predicament nor see why it is so.

"It seems...... For example, you still have to tell Lord Chen about money! Liang Hong sighed.

At this time, Liang Hong suddenly thought that Liu Da Scar was in the grain business recently, maybe he could go to Liu Da Scar to find out the situation.
