[There are too many things, I have been delayed for two days, I can't help the readers, continue to ask for votes]

"What am I talking about? It's really not distressing to slaughter and sell Yetian. ”

I listened to Wang Xingping's explanation early this morning that he wanted to reduce the rent for Li Laoliu's family, although the Zhuangtian on the outskirts of the city was not under the management of the firm, but Wang Laiting attached great importance to Gu Fengming when he was alive, and all of these were entrusted to the second cabinet.

Gu Fengming was chattering to his nephew in the study, but he didn't see the slightest relief on his face, and there was no laughter at all that was supposed to appear here.

It is also possible to sell Ye Tian without heartache, as long as it is sold to his Gu family, of course, it is better not to have money.

"Second uncle, I think that Li Lao Liu probably gave the bottom to the Wang family boy, what kind of doggy young master, when he came out of the Li family, he was still smiling, and he didn't go to other houses, and the few disciples who followed him were all happy."

Gu Fengming sat on the circle chair in his own hall, looking unmoved.

"You ask someone you know first, didn't the little from the Zuo family also follow? You used to hang out together in the market, and you always asked something. ”

"It's good to ask and see what the new owner has in mind."

The hair of the second cabinet of more than half a hundred years old is a little whiter, and the already thin face seems to have been tortured too much.

He buried his head and asked gloomily, "I told you to be vigilant this time, so they didn't notice." ”

Gu Fengming is in charge of the management of the tenant fields in the southern suburbs of the Wang family, and the intermediate benefit is only handled by himself, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that some people are not convinced, and they can say that they have nothing to do.

But he can rest assured, the past accounts and experience are in his own hands, and the accounts on the counter can be perfunctory. I arranged for my nephew to follow me all the way, but I was just cautious, and I didn't want to miss anything, this is the means by which I can develop in the Wang family in the past few years, and I will never relax.

But after all, this young owner still has the deeds of exterminating the human clan before, and he can't take it lightly.

"The second uncle put his heart in his stomach, and when his nephew went out, he was far away, and he was wearing the short clothes of a tenant in the village, even Zuo Xiaoer didn't recognize me."

Gu Fengming thought for a while, his brows gradually stretched, he got up and took out a few strings of copper coins from the study drawer, and counted them silently in his heart.

Throw it to He Jin and say: "Save some flowers, don't take them to gamble...... Don't tell your dad about it. ”

He Jin sang a song and went down.

Seeing his nephew go out, Gu Fengming beckoned a small servant, who was also a guy on the Futai, called Zhang Changgeng, who was Gu Fengming's cronies on the counter, and he was also driven by the Gu family when he had nothing to do, and the others on the counter just didn't see it.

"Then the owner didn't say anything else?"

After saying hello on the Fude, Gu Fengming buried his head in official business, and served the owner in front of him, and only asked him Zhang Changgeng.

"I really didn't say it, I just said that Li Laoliu was diligent in farming, and he was honest and loyal, so he agreed to reduce his tenants. In addition, he talked to Ye Da Cabinet about business matters, and asked about the silver on the cabinet. ”

Looking at Zhang Changgeng's expression, it doesn't seem to be fake, but this young master of the Wang family, the city government is inevitably deeper, which is unpredictable.

However, Gu Fengming also figured out that the initiative in the matter of embezzling the owner's tenant property is always on his side, he eats meat, and the tenants who obey also have soup to drink, if there is really anyone who is not long-sighted, he must also ask the seedling money on credit from himself, although the amount of money is not much, but it is not for nothing that someone can lend to them.

Thinking of this section, he calmly ordered: "You can pass on the matter of Li Laoliu's rent reduction in the village, and don't do it too much, Lin Jinsheng, You Wu, Wang Qi and Cai Jian just need to know." ”

"And then?"

"And then? Watching a play...... Don't forget to add some condiments, too. ”

In Gu Fengming's heart, he always firmly believes that 'ginger is still old and spicy'.

…………

In the blink of an eye, it was clear morning.

On this day, the big families in the city will worship their ancestors, and the small families will also go out of the city to sweep the tombs, so that the city will be noisy before dawn.

On the first day, the servants in the family put out the stove and went out of the city early in the morning to sweep the tomb, and the queen mother Xiao and the eldest sister of the Wang family, Ruoxi, both went out early in a soft sedan chair surrounded by their families. Wang Xingping and his brother-in-law Jian Shouzhi rode horses to take the lead, and Wang Xiaoliu and a few servants followed behind the team.

When the rooster cries three times, it has passed through the Caijia Lane in the east of the city, bypasses the Bow Street from the six monuments, it is Wanshou Lane, the alley is built along the north section of the city wall of Wushengmen in the east of Guiyang City, and the city wall is the Wanshou Palace and Ciyun Temple in the city.

Before the city gate was opened, the ladies went to the Ciyun Temple to pray for blessings and almsgiving, and asked the old servants who stayed to take care of the house to go to the Wanshou Palace to get a new fire, and the men found a shed in front of His Excellency Wenchang on the Moon City to wait.

Wang Xingping and Jian Punctual walked to the front of Wenchang Pavilion together, which is usually used by the officials in the city when feasting and drinking, and the sky is not bright, only two city soldiers are guarding, and there is a big lock on the pavilion door, which is full of the meaning of "do not disturb if you are not sincere".

Built in the 37th year of Wanli, the Wenchang loft has been repaired to the appearance of the pagoda, less than ten years, the pavilion looks still new. The old army guarding the pavilion watched the two of them coming, and was vigilant at first, after all, there were too many people who wanted to go out of the city from the east gate to sweep the tombs during the Qingming Festival, and there were also a lot of idle people, and many self-proclaimed scribes would inevitably come over to take a look, purely to pass the time, and they were too lazy to talk, it was all a matter of scholars, and if they said a few more words, they might offend which master in the city.

Seeing Wang Xingping and the two coming, one of them was still wearing a white cloth shirt, he didn't ask, and continued to nap in the corner of the wall.

"Brother-in-law is the first time to come to this Wenchang Pavilion in Guiyang, but I want to take a good look at it, the Wenchang Pavilion elsewhere is four corners and eight corners, but this Guiyang Mansion is nine corners."

"Actually, I've heard your sister talk about it."

"When my sister got married, the team to welcome the relatives went to Rouyuanmen."

The husband's family is in Chongqing Mansion, and the team to pick up relatives will not go around the west gate, although Wang Xingping was only five or six years old at the time, and he didn't remember the details when he sent his sister to get married, but now he can think of a rough idea just by speculating.

"Xiaoping, you have a good memory, but this Wenchang Pavilion has just been built back then, and its reputation is very big."

"The nine corners of this pavilion are the number of the sunshine on the hexagram, that is, it is too full, and it is full of losses."

Jian Shouzhi is not stupid, looking at the appearance of his brother-in-law, he brought his family to this corner alone, and there are no outsiders, what else does this matter to say?

"Xiaoping, don't go around the bush, if you have anything to say to your brother-in-law, just talk to your brother-in-law."

Wang Xingping looked at Jian Shouzhi, and said in his heart that this brother-in-law is not stupid, and his sister can rest assured that he will follow him.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, but I don't know when my brother-in-law will leave for Chongqing."

"It turned out that Gu Yu would rush back to Chongqing before the rain, and he would set off on the sixth day of the new year at the latest, and it would be delayed on the road later, Xiaoping, why did you think of asking this?"

"Originally, there was a trivial matter that asked my brother-in-law." Wang Xingping looked at Jian Shouzhi with a smile, and saw that his brother-in-law's expression was indifferent, and he was not surprised, so he continued to say his thoughts.

"If you want to go to Zunyi Mansion by the way, first, the Zhuangzi that my father left over there will have to take over, and secondly, I will also go to the meeting for a while."

"Even if these words come out, my mother and sister will definitely refuse, so I can only come to beg my brother-in-law."

Jian Shouzhi was embarrassed: "It's okay to say it here, but you have known your sister's temperament since she was a child, and I can't control him." ”

Wang Xingping said with a smile: "For the sake of being able to help my brother-in-law in front of my father-in-law, I think my sister will agree, but I want my brother-in-law to say this." ”

"What does that mean?"

"It's just a debt to pay off."

As he spoke, Wang Xingping took out a stack of pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Jian Shouzhi's hand.

smiled and said: "Lai Xinglongji's silver ticket, redeem it when you see it, it's not a Ming treasure banknote, brother-in-law, you put it away first, if you respond to my business, you will have to add money when you turn back." ”

Jian Shouzhi held the silver ticket tightly in his hand, and the five hundred taels of paper were just like goose feathers, but they were like a thousand pounds in his hand.

Originally, because of the Wang family's loan, Jian Shouzhi was counted down by his father at home, some Wang Ruoxi knew, and some Wang Ruoxi didn't hear about it.

But there is a younger brother who has been spoiled since he was a child, and the pressure of Jian Shouzhi can be imagined.

Originally, this time with Ruoxi to go home to worship his relatives had the meaning of letting him come to tempt, and he ran to see Ye Da Cabinet alone, also because he lost Zhang Zhi and wanted to get an idea.

At first, I heard Jian Shouzhi go to the counter, I thought it was to force debts for his family, and there was still a trace of unhappiness in my heart, but after a long time of contact, I also have an understanding of this brother-in-law's heart, and I am not resisting in my heart, after all, it is difficult to be a man caught in the middle.

It is precisely because of this section that Wang Xingping faintly has a hint of thought, to straighten things out at home, and to help his sister's family solve their worries, if he can clean up a few villains and enemies by the way, it would be better.

Jian Shouzhi should have refused, firstly, compared to this silver, the properties of Banzhou and Guiyang are much more valuable, and his precious brother is alone at home these days to his parents, and he may not be able to count the silver back by his father, but he is such a soft and cowardly character, Wang Xingping is a little stronger, he can't refuse.

The silver ticket in his hand is a statement, since his brother-in-law has agreed to arrange it, but this silver was secretly withdrawn from his home by Xiao Shi for the reason that he needs it on the counter, just to pave the way for this action. In the next few days, I have to make a good plan.

…………

There are not a few people who go out of the city to sweep the tomb today, there is already a long queue at the city gate, and the merchants of the Zhejiang Hall in front of the Wusheng have already set up a morning shop, the cold food does not move the fire, and the business in the morning will get up late, and half of the stalls are all kinds of cold food, but there are mattresses that have been kept warm, and the fire has risen again at this time, and it has not yet cooled.

The only thing that still has fireworks is probably the incense in the two temples that are separated from the Wenchang Pavilion on the Moon City by a wall.

After the group followed the team out for another half hour, the sky was already bright.

The ancestral tomb of the Wang family is not next to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs of Wang Xingping's house, but on a hill seven and a half miles west of Fucheng, which is the ancestral tomb of the Wang family in Guiyang.

Originally, the field in the southern suburbs, although surrounded by water on three sides, was a very good place in Wang Xingping's opinion, but in the eyes of the fortune teller, it was called an unlucky place to die, if the tombs of the ancestors were set there, future generations would probably starve to death.

The joke that the young man who didn't know the customs almost made when he ran about his deceased father's funeral at the beginning made several elders in the clan add a few words of conversation after tea and dinner.

When he left the city, he joined the team of the east house, and while thinking about the fortune teller's joke-like explanation, he talked to the clan elders in the queue, and before noon, he arrived at the cemetery.

Worshipping the ancestors of the Wang clan, Wang Xingping went to the tomb of Wang Laiting with his family, the new tombstone has not yet been polished by the years, and the words "the tomb of the late prince of the palace are clearly legible", prepare incense candles, knife heads, and insert willow branches for the family.

After worshipping once, he finally bought the 'furoshiki' printed with the mantra of the dead and the lotus picture in the south paper shop and burned it with the dead money, and was about to put the prayer flag of the conjuring spirit and the dark money prepared on the mound, but saw Wang Xiaoliu leading an afterlife into the cemetery in a hurry.

Wang Xiaoliu's father was also buried nearby, and it was near the end, so Wang Xingping instructed Xiaoliu to go to his father's tomb to prepare first, and he would also go over to make a sacrifice, as he had said a long time ago. But I didn't want to bump into this one as soon as I left the cemetery, so I hurriedly brought him back to report.

Wang Xingping looked at the person who came with a kind face, and asked, "Are you the son of Li Laoliu?" ”

Hou Sheng pounced and knelt in front of Wang Xingping: "Ask the owner to be the master." ”

"You get up and talk about it." After Wang Xingping finished speaking, Wang Xiaoliu hurriedly helped the person up.

The son of the Li family gasped twice, and finally straightened out his words. "A few days ago, the young master came to Shuiwo Village, and he didn't go to other families, but he only stayed at my house for half a day, and when he went back, he reduced us by half of the tenants, and the whole family felt the kindness of the owner."

"But I don't want to be known by a few dogs in the village, it's not that my family picked their rights and wrongs in front of the young master, they were harassed at home a few days ago, and most of the newly planted seedlings were destroyed at night."

"Forget about destroying the seedlings, early this morning, before dawn, I went to the grave with my father, but I didn't want my family's ancestral grave to be picked up."

"If it weren't for the death of these thieves, who else would there be, my father was angry at the time, and only let me come to ask the owner to be the master, as soon as the city gate opened, I went to the house first, but I heard that the owner also went out of the city to sweep the tomb today, so I hurried slowly, and I just collided with the little sixth brother at the door."

Wang Xingping listened to the other party's story and was overjoyed, and he didn't say much when he saw it in his last life, but he didn't expect it to be quite well-adjusted when he spoke.

But what is even more gratifying is that things are finally developing in an interesting direction, and it would be strange if no one instigated this matter.

After thinking about it again, I felt that it was too ridiculous, and this time I let the fortune teller be blinded again, and the feng shui of Shuiwo Village was really not good.
