After Xiao Mengjiang arrived in Jiafu, he behaved very actively and capablely, chopping wood and making fires, washing and cooking, scraping fish scales and removing chicken feathers...... Do anything, there's nothing she can't do.

Jia Dacaishen once passed by Xiao Lingjun, who was working hard to chop wood, and felt that she was different from other lazy servants in the house, and treated her with a green eye.

Since then, Xiao Meng Jiang can always see Jia Dacai wandering around when she is working, so she is scared to work harder.

Looking at Xiao Meng Jiang's sweaty hard work, Jia Dacaishen was very emotional, this is the work attitude and responsibility that young people should have. Youth is all about sweating! A life of unremitting struggle is a life without regrets!

Jia Dacai God has no children, no daughters, and no wives and concubines. Because he is reluctant to spend money on a dowry when marrying a wife, he just wants to marry a rich woman. But he hasn't had a chance to see a richer woman than him. Over time, he was still single.

Although people are in the prime of life, as the saying goes, raise children to prevent old age, and accumulate grain to prevent hunger. I started a little abacus in my heart, although Xiao Ling has her own father, but Jia Da Caishen can take her father over to accompany him as a companion, play chess together, fishing, wouldn't it be happy. In the future, Xiao Lingjun will be older, so she will recruit her son-in-law to come to the door, save the dowry money, and fill in one more strong man.

The more Jia Dacai God thought about it, the more he felt that this was a sure deal.

So, Jia Da Caishen waved his hand to signal the manager to come over and whispered for a while. The steward nodded and complied.

The manager paced to Xiao Meng Jiang's side, "Xiao Meng Jiang, you will start working in the store from today onwards, come with me." ”

Xiao Meng Jiang was a little strange, but he could breathe a sigh of relief if he could leave the sight of Jia Da God of Wealth as soon as possible.

"Master Jia has a number of properties in the city, tea houses, cloth houses, pawn shops, you see that the title deeds of the shops on this street are all Mr. Jia's. Financial management is very cumbersome, and in the future, you will have to go to various stores for internships, and learn more from the bookkeeper and the shopkeepers, and you can also help Mr. Jia share some affairs if you succeed. Master Jia will not treat you badly. After speaking, the manager introduced Xiao Meng Jiang to the shopkeeper Chen of the pawn shop, and asked the shopkeeper Chen to mention Xiao Meng Jiang more, and left.

Shopkeeper Chen took Xiao Meng Jiang to the warehouse and taught her how to distinguish things with her palms.

All kinds of calligraphy, painting and antiques in the warehouse, rare treasures, really opened Xiao Mengjiang's eyes. Every time the shopkeeper Chen picked up an object, he taught Xiao Meng Jiang how to distinguish the authenticity, and told the doorway to identify treasures and the history of various antiques.

Xiao Meng Jiang learned a lot of knowledge in just one day, which was an eye-opener. "There are many ways to appreciate treasures, so you have to dive in and study them carefully. I'll leave you to take stock of the warehouse today, and ask me if you don't understand. ”

"Xie Chen's shopkeeper." Shopkeeper Chen taught Xiao Meng Jiang what he had learned without reservation, and Xiao Meng Jiang was very moved. Carefully counted the treasures against the roster in the warehouse and the notes left by the shopkeeper Chen.

The sky gradually darkened, and after the sunset, Xiao Lingjun saw that it was not early, and most of the work on his hands was completed, so he locked the warehouse, exchanged the key to the shopkeeper Chen, and returned home after handing over the work.

Xiao Meng Jiang pushed open the door and found that Chu Chu had prepared a meal waiting for her, Xiao Meng Jiang was very happy, Chu Chu rarely took the initiative to prepare meals for her, it was always Xiao Meng Jiang who made Chu Chu ready-made.

"Sit down and eat while it's hot." Chu Chu greeted.

"Did you make a windfall today?" Xiao Meng Jiang asked curiously.

"No, guess again." Chu Chu sold Guanzi.

"A beautiful girl sent you a lot of things today?" Xiao Meng Jiang guessed again.

"Vulgar! There are so many beauties that the master has seen, and few of them can get into the eyes of the master. "If Chu Chu has a beard, Chu Chu will definitely be able to blow his beard up at this time.

"Could it be that you've heard some interesting gossip that you want to share with me?" Xiao Meng Jiang tried to guess.

Chu Chu rolled his eyes at the roof and asked, "Then I specially prepared a meal for you to come back to eat?" Can you just say no to you as soon as you come in? “

"yes, why is that? Tell me why. I can't guess. Xiao Meng Jiang thought about it and still couldn't think of it, so he replied helplessly.

"It's because ......" Chu Chu specially lengthened his voice, leaned into Xiao Meng Jiang's ear and lowered his voice and said, "We're going to hunt ghosts in a while." ”

"What's that?! You're crazy, Chuchu. Thank God you don't have to bump into ghosts, you're still going to hunt ghosts?! Xiao Meng Jiang asked incredulously.

"You be quiet, what's there to fuss about. It's not me, it's us. As a member of Lincheng, don't you think you have to contribute to your hometown? Chu Chu asked with a look of disdain.

"If you want to go, you will go, I will not go." Xiao Meng Jiang made up his mind that he would never wade into this troubled water.

"Well, if you don't go, I'll tell everyone about the fact that you snore so loudly that no one else can sleep. Let everyone know. Chu Chu rolled his eyes and thought about what else could be done to restrain Xiao Meng Jiang.

"Chu Chu, you're too much! I don't snore when I sleep! Xiao Meng Jiang said angrily.

"How can you know when you're asleep?" Chu Chu asked rhetorically.

"You're mad at me! You...... You win. I'll go! Xiao Meng Jiang gritted his teeth and said hatefully.

"I thought you'd hold on a little longer." Chu Chu chuckled.

"Hmph." Xiao Meng Jiang snorted angrily. Asked, "Where to catch ghosts?" “

"Bring your gear before you hunt ghosts." As he spoke, Chu Chu stuffed the prepared shovel to Xiao Meng Jiang, put two bundles of garlic around Xiao Meng Jiang's neck, and tied a bag to Xiao Meng Jiang's body. "Let's go, go to the haunted house."

Xiao Meng Jiang choked on the garlic smell and wanted to sneeze. "Where?"

"Just follow me." As he spoke, Chu Chu couldn't help but pick up Xiao Meng Jiang and ran out of the city.

"This is the haunted house you were talking about? It's just a grass hut that has been left unattended and in disrepair. Xiao Meng Jiang looked at the dilapidated courtyard and asked.

"Don't rush to conclusions, listen to me tell a story first." Chu Chu was not very satisfied with Xiao Meng Jiang's calmness and wanted to scare her.

There used to be a girl living here, she grew up with a young man in the same village, and the two childhood sweethearts and two little guesses were enviable.

One day, the young man told the girl that he wanted to make a career and achieve something, and come back to marry her in a beautiful way. The girl was delighted, and promised that the young man would wait for him to come back and marry her. So the young man left the village and joined the army.

The girl waited with hope for her fiancé to come back, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, finally waiting for him to come back. The young man really had the ability to become a promising lieutenant. The adjutant wanted to marry Qingmei, but was hindered by the old general and His Royal Highness the Prince. The old general admired the adjutant very much and wanted to marry his daughter to him.

The prince is also very optimistic about the lieutenant general and wants to take him for his own use and serve himself. Because the old general was the prince's man, the prince hoped to consolidate his power through the marriage of the old general's daughter and the deputy army. Therefore, he tried to arrange the marriage of the adjutant general and the daughter of the old general.

But the adjutant general didn't want to wronged the girl, he only wanted to marry the girl alone in his life. So, he asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to resign, he told his story, his parents died early, it was Qingmei's parents who adopted him, saving money to pull himself and Qingmei up, he swore that he would never let down his adoptive parents' family, let alone live up to the girl who loved him deeply, he made her wait for him for so many years, and he also looked forward to her for many years. The day was finally up, and he didn't want to miss it again. “

"And then? Is the lieutenant going home? Are you with Qingmei? Xiao Meng Jiang was moved by the love story of the deputy army and the girl, and couldn't wait to hear it again.

The crown prince wanted to use the high-ranking official Houlu to keep the lieutenant general, but the lieutenant general was unmoved. The crown prince also instructed the commanders and subordinates of the lieutenant general who were friendly with the lieutenant general to lobby him, and the brothers moved with reason and affection, but no one could convince the lieutenant general.

The lieutenant took off his official seal and armor, folded them neatly, and presented them respectfully to the prince.

The prince was reluctant to accept it, so the lieutenant took off his clothes and pointed out the large and small scars on his body to the prince, while telling the origin of each scar. When he pointed to the deepest scar on his body, the prince sobbed. It was a military medal left by the adjutant general for the prince when he returned to the city to defend the war, and the sharp arrow shot straight into the heart at that time, and the deputy general almost couldn't save it.

After hearing this, the prince was silent, and when he turned to leave, he ordered others to accept his official seal and armor and let him go. The adjutant general made an oath to the departing prince and the old generals, commanders and soldiers who worked together: if there is a war, the call will return, and the battle will be won.

Xiao Meng Jiang was moved to tears by the adjutant general's oath of "If there is a war, he will return and win the battle". Chu Chu glanced at Xiao Meng Jiang and continued: "The deputy general returned to the girl as he wished, and married her, and the two became an ordinary but very happy couple. “

"What a touching love story, but what does it have to do with a haunted house?" Xiao Meng Jiang asked puzzled.

"Because the story isn't over yet."

War is coming again, and this one is even more tragic than the previous one. The old generals died in battle, and some of the generals with strong skills and more experience died in battle, and some were assigned to other wars, and there was no one around the prince.

The prince had no choice but to recall the deputy general who had already been disarmed and returned to the field, and the deputy general knew that he was gone, life and death were uncertain, he left all his savings to his wife, and he told his wife not to wait for him this time, and find a better person to marry.

But the girl did not agree, and she had to wait for the lieutenant to come back alive at all times.

The girl told the lieutenant that if she was waiting for him at home, he would definitely come back alive. When the lieutenant left, he took three heads in one step and did not rush away until he was far away.

The crown prince fought very hard in every battle, because not only did he have to confront the enemy, but his brother also made himself stumbling everywhere, not only slandering the king and transferring his capable generals, but also secretly leaking military information, so that the prince fought every battle in danger, and finally unfortunately failed miserably and died of his brother's conspiracy.

The deputy general was no longer willing to serve the princes who brutalized Zhongliang and persecuted the crown prince, so he was regarded as an outcast by the magnates.

The princes did not let the lieutenant go because of the compromise and retreat of the lieutenant, and they sent him to complete the impossible task.

The lieutenant was hunted down by the enemy, but fortunately, the lieutenant was experienced in guerrilla warfare and avoided the eyes of the enemy, so he secretly hid in the temple, cut his hair and became a monk, waiting for the opportunity to return to his beloved girl.

When the war subsided a little, the adjutant general hurried back to the village, but the adjutant's village had been looted by the enemy, and the villagers had already left to escape the war. When the little general returned to his home, all he saw was a pile of white bones under the bed and the girl's shabby clothes.

The lieutenant was grief-stricken, and the girl could have left with the other villagers, but stayed forever to wait for herself. He recited Buddhist scriptures for his wife for nine days and nine nights. In the end, the deputy himself also left with his beloved wife.

Xiao Meng Jiang sobbed and asked, "Chu Chu, how do you know other people's stories in such detail?" ”

"That's what she told me." Chu Chu said and pointed forward, Xiao Meng Jiang moved the realization away from Chu Chu's face, looked in the direction Chu Chu pointed to, and shouted: "Ah! ”
