Half a month after finding out that Hao Mengyun was pregnant, Yan Zhenwu rushed back from Fucheng.

He set off to buy goods in Fucheng at the beginning of February, and because there were two ships on the side of the shopkeeper Xu who did not return to the north on the agreed date, Yan Zhenwu waited for the shopkeeper Xu in Fucheng for nearly ten more days.

Now he finally rushed back to Ninghai County with the goods he had ordered, but as soon as he entered the house, he heard such good news.

Yan Zhenwu was so happy that he handed over all the miscellaneous matters such as inspection, unloading, and warehousing to Guo Yang and others to follow up, and he rushed back to the independent courtyard where he lived with Hao Mengyun and Xiao Mantou as soon as possible.

Meng Hao was already surprised by Yan Zhenwu's wife and slave behavior, she briefly asked Guo Yang and Shunzi a few words, and then let them go out and get busy.

It wasn't until dinner time that Yan Zhenwu was full of red faces, and came to Meng Zhen with Hao Mengyun and Sister-in-law Li who was holding a small steamed bun.

Meng Zhen had already asked people to prepare a large table of delicious food for Yan Zhenwu to wash the dust, Yan Zhenwu saw that most of the food on the table was what he liked to eat, and the corners of his lips suddenly curled higher.

In addition, Meng Zhen also asked people to prepare a small jar of wine for him very intimately, and Yan Zhenwu's heart suddenly became more and more ironing.

Xiao Meng Qi had also been called over by Mu Hibiscus at this time, so everyone sat around the table and had a lively dinner.

After the meal, Meng Hao offered to ask Yan Zhenwu not to go far again, "... You know, my master has always been very arrogant, and she doesn't take pregnancy seriously, and if you're not at home, no one of us can keep an eye on her. ”

Yan Zhenwu deeply agrees with this.

Hao Mengyun really never takes pregnancy seriously, relying on her good health, even if she has goods in her stomach, Hao Mengyun still jumps when she should jump, jumps when she wants, eats when she wants, and drinks when she wants.

In order to prevent her and their children from having a case, Yan Zhenwu really needs to look at her under his nose all the time.

After all, no matter how good a pregnant woman is, she is still a pregnant woman, isn't she?

Yan Zhenwu didn't want Hao Mengyun and their children to have something to lose because of Hao Mengyun's overconfidence.

This matter was finalized like this, and Yan Zhenwu, a wife and slave, ignored the objections of his precious daughter-in-law for the second time - the first time was when Hao Mengyun was pregnant with a small steamed bun.

***

After talking about his own family affairs, Yan Zhenwu talked to Meng Zhen about his trip to Fucheng again.

After briefly explaining the matter of the purchase, Yan Zhenwu revealed a major news to Meng Hao, "By the way, on the way back to Ninghai County this time, I rescued a businessman whose goods were robbed by bandits. ”

"The merchant's servant and his fellow were all dead, and he escaped by pretending to be a corpse, but he was also seriously wounded."

"I helped him bury those dead people, and then spent most of his body money to treat his injuries, because he also happened to be from Ninghai County, so I did it to the end and brought him back."

Yan Zhenwu is a very chivalrous Jianghu person, and when he sees injustice, he draws a sword to help, which can almost be said to be commonplace for him.

If it weren't for such an ancient way, he would not be so popular in Ninghai County.

So when he heard Yan Zhenwu say that he spent most of his money to save people, Meng Zhen was not surprised at all.

She just bowed slightly towards Yan Zhenwu, "I remember that the master brought you two hundred taels of silver at the beginning, right?" I'll have someone deliver the silver ticket to you later. ”

Yan Zhenwu waved his hand, "That's not possible." It's up to me to save people, how can I ask you for money. ”

The corners of Meng Hao's lips raised slightly, "Uncle Yan told me about this, isn't it because I can benefit from it?" ”

Yan Zhenwu scratched his head, "I really can't hide anything from you." ”

He bowed slightly to Meng Hao, "Although the merchant has reported to the official, it is still unknown whether the goods can be recovered." Now he had to restock the goods and appease the relatives of his dead buddies and descendants, so he had decided to sell his wealth. ”

Meng Zhen immediately understood what Yan Zhenwu meant, "Then I'll go and prepare the silver money later." ”

Yan Zhenwu nodded again, "Then I'll take you to visit that businessman surnamed Zhao tomorrow." He wants to sell a set of courtyards and two Zhuangzi, and the courtyard costs 1,800 taels, which I don't recommend you buy. As for those two Zhuangzi, if you want to take them all, then you have to prepare at least two thousand seven hundred taels of silver. ”

Yan Zhenwu pays attention to pragmatism, the courtyard of the businessman surnamed Zhao is located in the suburbs of Ninghai County, although the carved beams and paintings, the ten steps and one scene are very exquisite and gorgeous, but the location is remote, which is not convenient for daily living, nor convenient for renting to others, this kind of house is simply useless in Yan Zhenwu's opinion.

In contrast, he still prefers the two granges that the merchant surnamed Zhao took out.

These two granges are not large in size, and they can only be regarded as the last of all the granges owned by the merchant surnamed Zhao - otherwise he would not be willing to sell them like this.

But for Meng Hao, these two Zhuangzi, who have wells, ponds, and good fields, are already very rare and good Zhuangzi.

Coupled with the fact that this merchant surnamed Zhao is now in urgent need of silver money, the price of Zhuangzi will not be cheaper than the market price, at least it will not be more expensive than the market price.

Such a good opportunity, of course, Yan Zhenwu wants to help Meng Hao grab it.

After the two of you finished talking about this matter, Meng Zhen immediately went back to the room to collect money.

She found all the silver tickets and cash money in her hand, and in the end, for the sake of insurance, the girl also moved a thousand taels from Meng Qi's money box to come over for emergency.

Meng Qi is still young now, and even if Meng Zhen marries, the Meng family's property, is still not immediately returned to Meng Qi.

She took out all the accounts of all the industries under Meng Qi's name and remembered it clearly, and Meng Zhen also saved all the profits generated by the shops and fields under Meng Qi's name.

And when the money is saved to a certain amount, Meng Zhen will ask Meng Qi's opinion, and then take out the money to buy a shop or grange, so that they can snowball bigger and bigger, and gather more and more.

Occasionally, Meng Zhen would borrow a few silver tickets from Meng Qi's money box for emergencies like now.

Just like she occasionally embezzled her own money to Meng Qi's side, first helping him buy property, and then slowly deducting the part of the principal she had lent before from the follow-up income of his property.

took a thick pile of silver tickets with different denominations and a total of 3,500 taels of silver, and took about 20 taels of cash, Meng Zhen was accompanied by Yan Zhenwu and went to the house of a merchant surnamed Zhao.

Along with them were Sun Yaren, whom Meng Hao often dealt with, Sun Yaren had a good reputation, and the merchant surnamed Zhao was also one of his customers, so the merchant surnamed Zhao happily accepted that Sun Yaren would help them handle this business.
