The next day, Jia Ke practiced Fang Tian's halberd painting in the morning, and then practiced the Spring and Autumn Guidance Technique.

Then after having breakfast under the service of Chuncao and Qiaolian, he asked Qiaolian to call Lin Zhixiao and Zhou Wang, and asked them to inform Liu Hong, the steward of Zhuangzhong, and Liu Yu of the pro-soldier team respectively, and let them come over, he had something to order.

After a while, Liu Hong and Liu Yu came, and Lin Zhixiao was about to retreat when he saw someone coming, when Jia Ke stopped him and said, "Manager Lin, you also stay." ”

Jia Ke sat on it and first said to Liu Yu: "The pro-soldier team has almost finished training, but there is less long-distance training, make up for it today, you go back to the kitchen now and let the kitchen make cakes, and distribute them to the people of the pro-soldier team as dry food." Meet outside my courtyard gate in an hour. ”

Liu Yu didn't say much, only replied to Jia Ke in a sullen voice: "Guarantee completion, never make a mistake." ”

Jia Ke waved him down, and then said to Liu Hong: "My Zhuangzi's side, I'm still not at ease, I still want to go and see, Liu Hong, you are the old Zhuangtou, you accompany me to take a look, in case I have something wrong to remind me." It's going to take a few days, so you can prepare. After saying this, he didn't wait for Liu Hong to reply, and directly asked him to go down to prepare.

When he arrived at Lin Zhixiao, Jia Ke said: "You are familiar with all the Zhuangzi in the house, so be a guide, and arrange carriages, horses, food and lodging by the way." Go down and get ready, and leave on time in an hour. After finishing speaking, he sent Lin Zhixiao and went directly to the back house.

Lin Zhixiao walked out of the hall, walked into the courtyard, looked at the sky, and thought that this was about to change. Jia Ke's Zhuangzi matter, he had long suspected it, but first, he relied on the big situation, and secondly, he didn't dare to imagine that they would be so bold, and there was no evidence again, so he didn't report it to Jia Ke, but looking at Jia Ke's appearance today, I was afraid that he saw a flaw, and he was afraid that something would happen this time, but he still went to do it immediately.

Jia Ke returned to the back house, Chuncao immediately served tea, Jia Ke said to Chuncao while drinking tea: "Prepare some clothes for me, I will go out in a while, it may take a few days." ”

Chuncao said: "Uncle, you want to go there, this is just a rest." Why are you so busy that you can't stay home for a while? ”

Jia Ke looked at Chuncao and thought, this girl has taken care of him since he crossed over, and Chuncao is different from others in his heart. So I'm not wary of her.

"Something happened to Zhuangzi, I'm going to take a look." Jia Ke said.

"Isn't the old man's side already compensated? Do you want the uncle to see it? ”

"I suspect that something is wrong with Zhuangzi. Therefore, it is necessary to check the facts. Don't tell anyone else about this, but go and prepare clothes for me. ”

Chuncao went to prepare things for Jia Ke, because she didn't go for a long time, and she only had a few changes of clothes, and she finished cleaning up in a while.

Jia Ke looked over and saw that although it was much less than the last time he came to Caozhuang, there were still several big bags. He smiled and said, "It's just a few days out, do you use so many clothes?" ”

"It's not just uncle's, it's mine."

Jia Ke immediately understood that Chuncao was going to go together, so he said, "I'll do business, what are you going to do." ”

"Uncle, you go to Zhuangzi alone, and there is no one to serve for a few days, I don't worry."

"I used to be in the pro-soldier team, wasn't I also a person, what was there to worry about." Jia Ke said.

"Can that be the same? It's just a little bit of a road in the pro-soldier team, and I'll go and see it when I think about it, just like at home. But when I went outside, it was only a few days, how could I rest assured. After Chuncao finished speaking, she pestered Jia Ke and asked him to promise to let her go with her.

Jia Ke thought that it was all men who went, and it was inconvenient for a girl to be in Chuncao, so he didn't agree anyway.

Chuncao saw that Jia Ke was determined not to let her follow, and she could only stop entanglement, but she had to point out the packages to Jia Ke one by one, what was this, what was that, and explained to him carefully.

An hour later, Lin Zhixiao came in and said that he was ready, Jia Ke went out in the spring grass and Qiaolian's reluctance.

I saw that the pro-soldiers were lined up in a row at the gate of the courtyard, each carrying a wooden stick five feet long in their hands, and dozens of people were like one person, standing there like wooden people.

There were two carriages in front of the pro-soldier team, Jia Ke saw that he was fully prepared, and was about to get on the car, just about to step on the stool, he suddenly remembered something, so he turned around and entered the house from the new, and after a while, he took out the blue-maned horse, holding Fang Tian's halberd in his hand.

He asked the blue-maned horse to be tied to the back of the car, and he carried Fang Tian's halberd into the car, and ordered Lin Zhixiao to set off.

This group of people walked towards the outside of the village, and there were many villagers who came to see them off along the way, among which there were family members in the pro-soldier team, and they also called each other's names loudly from afar, but the pro-soldier team did not squint, as if they did not hear. Old man Liu was also in the crowd of people seeing him off, and he was very proud to see the performance of the pro-soldier team. He deserves it.

Jia Ke led the people out of Xiacao Village, and under the leadership of Lin Zhixiao, he went straight to Jia Ke's Zhuangzi.

Jia Ke has not paid much attention to this Zhuangzi since he was given this Zhuangzi by Jia's mother, he thinks that there will be no big deal, at most, the steward will deduct some rent from it, but he never expected these people to be so bold.

On the way, Jia Ke sat in the car, and Lin Zhixiao and the coachman sat in the front of the carriage. Liu Hong and Zhou Wang sat in the car behind, and the pro-soldiers followed.

In the car, Jia Ke asked Lin Zhixiao and said: "How far is our Zhuangzi from Xia Caozhuang, when the old lady gave it to me, she only said that it was not far from Xia Caozhuang, I don't know the specific distance." ”

Lin Zhixiao was afraid that Jia Ke would not be able to hear clearly outside the car, so he replied loudly: "Our Zhuangzi is about thirty miles away from Xiacaozhuang, which is closer to the capital than Xiacaozhuang." ”

Jia Ke asked again: "What is the name of Zhuangzi and how many households are there?" ”

Lin Zhixiao still said loudly: "Our Zhuangzi is called Wangjiatun, and there are more than 100 households. ”

Jia Ke asked again: "Did Wangjiatun not pay rent on time before?" ”

Lin Zhixiao replied: "No, there was a year of flooding, it rained a lot, and Wangjiatun also paid the rent on time, I remember that the old lady said that Wangjiatun's steward was attentive to everything, and he was capable of taking precautions." Lin Zhixiao remained silent and told Jia Ke the news he knew.

Jia Ke now understands why Jia's mother gave him Wangjiatun at that time. This is because Jia's mother thinks that Wangjiatun's steward is capable and reliable, and can share Jia Ke's worries. Anyway, for now, Jia's mother is still very good to his grandson, even more than his sister-in-law Jia Zhu.

Jia Ke asked Lin Zhixiao again: "What is the name of the steward of Wangjiatun?" ”

Lin Zhixiao replied: "Li An, the steward of Wangjiatun, married the daughter of Mama Lai. "This is Lin Zhixiao reminding Jia Ke.

When Jia Ke heard him say this, he said lightly: "I said, it turned out to be her son-in-law." And he did not speak.

Originally, the elders in the village saw that Jia Ke was the son of a rich and noble family, and wanted to invite Jia Ke to eat at home, but Jia Ke politely refused. He also ate dry food with the people.

After lunch, everyone set off immediately. At about three o'clock in the afternoon (in the future, modern moments will be used for everyone's convenience), Lin Zhixiao said to Jia Ke: "Uncle, there is Wangjiatun in front." ”

Jia Ke said to him: "Don't enter the village first, walk around the village." ”

Lin Zhixiao agreed, and led the team around Wangjiatun.

Jia Ke lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, only to see a green wheat field outside the village, which was almost finished, but a small part had not yet been harvested, and some crops that were probably sorghum had not yet been harvested.

Looking at the crops that are growing well, I don't want to look like they have suffered from drought.

Jia Ke's face became gloomy, Lin Zhixiao felt Jia Ke's anger beside him, and immediately held his breath, not daring to disturb him, for fear that he would sprinkle his anger on his head.
