"Madame is a person who understands the general situation, how can she stand up for two house slaves and oppose me?" Wei Ba smiled very brightly and was very at ease. "Although I am not her biological child, I also call her my mother nominally. Whether it's Steward Zhang or Huan'er, they are all house slaves, not to mention that I didn't do anything wrong, would Mrs. still punish her son who didn't make a mistake for the sake of two house slaves? ”

Steward Chen smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, you really regard yourself as your wife's son. Madame only has Wei Feng in her heart, never you, in her mind, the two personal slaves of Steward Zhang and Huan'er must be much more important than you, the concubine.

"We still have important things to do, and we don't have time to worry about them." Wei Ba patted Steward Chen's shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry, even if something happens, Madam won't punish me before I finish these things." ”

Steward Chen nodded, he believed that although Mrs. Zhang was a little narrow-minded, she was generally knowledgeable. The few things Wei Ba is doing now are very important to the Wei family, and Mrs. Zhang will not come to Wei Ba's trouble at this joint. He was suddenly taken aback, raised his head and looked at Wei Ba's smiling face, and realized. Could it be that the young master couldn't take him with his wife, so he successively dealt with Steward Zhang and Huan'er?

A strange feeling suddenly surged in Steward Chen's heart, the appearance of Wei Ba in front of him had not changed, but the look revealed between his eyebrows and eyes was a completely different person. Could it be that the young master has finally opened his mind? Or did you have some adventure?

On the small building in the backyard, Mrs. Zhang looked at Huan'er who was soaking wet, her face was embarrassed, and after listening to Huan'er's crying, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and have evil in her eyes. Huan'er lowered her head, paid attention to Mrs. Zhang's eyes with the corner of her eye, and sobbed from time to time, sounding extremely sad. She was deeply favored by Mrs. Zhang, and knew that in Madame's mind, she was a few points heavier than the chief steward Zhang Ping, but today she was humiliated like this by Wei Ba, and she believed that Madame would not be indifferent.

Mrs. Zhang spat out two puffs of anger, and suddenly asked, "Didn't he do some kind of account page, why did he go to Tiezuo again?" ”

Huan'er was speechless for a while, in order to arouse her wife's anger and reduce her scruples, she didn't say anything about Wei Ba's development of a new weapon. Unexpectedly, although the lady was angry, she still sensitively captured this detail.

"He brought back three blacksmiths, saying that he wanted to make some iron, and for this reason he had to stop the processing of weapons, and he reminded him with his servants, and he was so angry that he deliberately played tricks on his servants, and pushed them into the sink in front of so many people, humiliating them, and whining ......"

Mrs. Zhang raised her eyebrows: "The three blacksmiths brought back from Chuyang?" ”

Huan'er sobbed and nodded. Water dripped down from his hair and soaked the floor. Mrs. Zhang looked at her with some unhappiness and sneered: "You are so bold, you dare to tell right and wrong in front of me?" ”

Huan'er was taken aback, raised her pale face, and looked at Mrs. Zhang aggrievedly and complainingly: "Madam, how dare you?" ”

"Hmph, I found that you have been getting more and more bold recently, not only bullying those subordinates, but even I dare to deceive. In order to block Wei Ba, Zhang Ping dared to delay even such an important matter. You are even more bold, Wei Ba is doing iron-clad things, you are hiding from me, and you still come to me to complain, and dare to say that you are not telling right and wrong? ”

Huan'er exclaimed: "Madam, the servant really doesn't, he has never been to ironwork, how can he know how to strike iron, and what new weapons he builds, as soon as he hears it, he will know that it is ......"

"Shut up." As soon as she heard the words "new weapon", Mrs. Zhang understood even more, her face was blue and angry. "The general asked him to bring back three blacksmiths, was it just random? Even if he didn't know how to make iron, the three blacksmiths didn't understand either? Our Wei family has no shortage of blacksmiths at all, and the general asked them to come to the Wei family, naturally because they have jishu that our Wei family does not have, you don't understand this truth? ”

Huan'er was speechless, she didn't dare to play in front of Mrs. Zhang anymore, she understood now, although Mrs. Zhang rarely went downstairs, but as shrewd as ever, they wanted to hide it from her.

"The matter of the account page, but to fight for the length of the game, the gamble is a breath, but the iron is related to the real food, and the weapons are even more related to the military exploits of the general and Ah Feng, which is the foundation of my Wei family, which is more important than the account page, I believe you know very well. Huan'er, do you think you're too smart, or do you think I'm too old to be fooled? ”

Mrs. Zhang's voice was gloomy and cold, and Huan'er heard a chill rushing to the back of her head, and she didn't dare to say anything more, just kowtowed again and again, and tears fell. She remembered what Wei Ba said just now, Madame would naturally give her a fair result, and now she understood that Wei Ba had long known that what she was doing was very important, so she had no fear. Thinking about the tragic situation of Zhang Ping being punished to half death with a cane in public, she was so frightened that her soul was not possessed, for fear that her wife would give her an order and concoct her in the same way, if that was the case, even if she was not killed, she would have no face to see people.

When Mrs. Zhang saw her like this, her face softened a little, and she felt a little pity in her heart, after all, she was a maid who had been with her for many years, and she was molested by Wei Ba in public today, if she didn't express it, she really had no face. But what Wei Ba did was a big deal and couldn't be delayed, and the reason why Huan'er was humiliated was self-inflicted, Wei Ba pushed her into the sink, nominally saving her life, otherwise she would have been burned alive, what reason did she have to punish Wei Ba?

Of course, Wei Ba's tricks on Huan'er weren't clever, but it was a childish prank. He didn't seem to want to hide it from her, as soon as he returned to the village, he successively rectified the two cronies around her, which was very clear.

What does he want to do? Madame Zhang was extremely annoyed, secretly guessing Wei Ba's deeper intentions. She thought about it for a long time, and decided to put it aside for the time being, the iron and weapons that Wei Ba was developing were too important to the Wei family, and for this reason, she could let Wei Ba be arrogant for a few more days to see what tricks he could play. Married into the Wei family for nearly thirty years, she has never seen any battles, and she can still be suppressed by a hairy child who has no weak crown?

"Huan'er, my Nanyang Zhang family has kindness and revenge, and there is clear grievances. Wei Ba saved your life, you should go xiexie him. Mrs. Zhang regained her composure and waved her hand lightly: "You go to wash and wash it first, and then go to the treasury to get four Shu brocades, remake a brocade robe, and then take two more horses to his mother Deng, which is my gratitude to her son." ”

Huan'er was relieved, answered, and hurriedly got up.

Wei Ba patrolled back and forth in the two places of printing and ironwork, and did not return to the small courtyard where his mother and son lived at night, so he naturally did not know what happened in the backyard. It wasn't until Wei Wulai told him that he knew that there was already a lot of talk in the backyard. The focus of the discussion is, of course, he Wei Ba, who has always been weak and bulliful, first cleaned up Zhang Ping, the chief steward beside Mrs. Zhang, and then "saved" the personal maid Huan'er, Mrs. Zhang not only fully supported him to punish Zhang Ping, but also asked Huan'er to specially hold two Shu brocade to thank him, which is a great honor. Although Deng and the others are concubines, they are nominally higher than Huan'er, but in fact, Huan'er has always been above them. If it weren't for Mrs. Zhang's refusal to let Wei Yanna Huan'er as a concubine, their master and servant would have dominated the Wei family's inner room a long time ago, where would there be a chance for the Deng family and them to get a piece of the pie.

"It seems that this girl is much higher than that Zhang Ping in her heart. saved a girl, and sent two Shu brocade to thank you, where is this thanks, this is clearly a demonstration. Wei Ba muttered to himself in his heart, and couldn't help but admire Mrs. Zhang's methods. Not only did she not lose face by doing so, but she showed her housewife's demeanor. She didn't give him Wei Ba face, but because Wei Ba was doing something beneficial to the Wei family. She has done it to the extreme, if he Wei Ba can't complete these inventions, then everything he does next will be returned to him in Bengali, and others will have nothing to say.

To retreat as advance, to defend instead of attack, and then wait for the opportunity to defend and counterattack, Mrs. Zhang is really a woman from a big family, this method is so clever that people will only be grateful, but it is difficult to detect the counterattack means. Like his mother, Deng, she didn't see it at all, and now she is still singing praises to Mrs. Zhang, asking him to do things well and repay Mrs. Zhang's concern.

Of course, it is necessary to do things well, whether it is to repay Mrs. Zhang's care, then two words. However, he is still very satisfied with Mrs. Zhang's caution, he is not afraid that Mrs. Zhang will have any follow-up measures, what he is afraid of is that Mrs. Zhang will be reckless and mess around, then he will have some scruples. It is easier to deal with a reasonable leader than it is to deal with an unreasonable leader.

"I know, you go back and tell your mother that I've been busy for the past two days, so I won't go back to sleep. When things are done, I'll go talk to her again. Wei Ba said to Wei Wu: "Let me ask you something, how many soldiers in our family have the strength of those ten people today?" ”

The ten soldiers who were fully armed and carried a month's rations were just as Dunwu said, and it only took half a day to easily run sixty miles, and after coming down, they didn't see how tired they were, and the strength of their bodies really surprised Wei Ba. However, Wei Ba had already read the records of the Wei Wushu trained by Wu Qi, and knew that the Wei Wushu could run a hundred miles in only half a day, and he could immediately enter the battle after arriving at the destination, compared to the Wei Wushu, the Wei family's martial arts were not perverted.

Wei Wu blinked: "Our Wei family's tribe has always been maintained at around three thousand people, and there are about sixty percent of people with this level." ”

Six achievements are less than two thousand people, Wei Ba shook his head regretfully, it is not enough to rely on the Wei family's trilogy to complete Daddy's Meridian Valley Jihua.

"Daddy still has county soldiers under him, how many of them are so tough?"

Wei Wu sneered: "County soldiers? How could there be such a strong soldier among those county soldiers? They are conscripted and recruited soldiers, how can they be compared to our Wei family's troops. Those conscripts were originally farmers, and it would be nice to be able to take up arms and fight. The conditions of the recruited people are better, but if they have such strong ability, the price will be terrifying, where can they afford to recruit. ”

"What is the level of the soldiers?"

Wei Wu pouted: "All the weights are not more than a hundred catties, and they can barely catch up with the speed of our Wei family's troops." ”————
