Chapter 229 - Special for Black Accounts
Before Su Shen went to Beijing, he lived in Bailu Academy most of the time, so the children in the family were far less attached to him than Meng Zhen.
But for Meng Hao, Su Shen is an indispensable part of her life.
Looking at the two children who were cheering and laughing, not knowing that their father had left home, Meng Hao couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Su Shen is gone, to fight for a better future for their little family, she can't do anything in this matter, but at least, she can help Su Shen keep their little family.
Before Su Shen comes back, she will guard the door, carefully raise her children, and run the family's business well, so that Su Shen does not have to worry about his wife and children at home because he is away from home and out of reach.
"Begonia, go and tell the porter that our house will be closed from today onwards." Holding Xiao Nianhe, who was snuggled into his arms again, Meng Zhen gently instructed Begonia.
Hao Mengyun looked up at her when she heard this, "Is it necessary to do this?" β
The corners of Meng Hao's lips rose, "Be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, and if you can live a clean life, why should I have to make trouble for myself?"
Hao Mengyun shrugged his shoulders, "What about Ah Qi?" Even if he doesn't go out and hang around, the academy is always going to go, right? β
"You don't have to go from today onwards." Meng Hao had obviously already thought about this question, she looked at Meng Qi with a smile, "Ah Qi is already eleven years old, and he can apply for the White Deer Academy next spring, and for the remaining few months, I plan to let him study at home behind closed doors." β
Hao Mengyun was stunned, "No wonder Xiao Wu told me some time ago that Ah Shen suddenly assigned a lot of homework to Ah Qi. β
Meng Zhen pursed her lips and smiled.
Before Su Shen left home, he had indeed discussed some important matters at home with her, and this of course included the follow-up arrangements for Meng Qi.
In Su Shen and Meng Zhen's plan, they planned to treat Meng Qi as their own child and take care of them all the time.
So if Su Shen can stay in Beijing as he wishes, then next year Meng Zhen will take Meng Qi, Xiao Nianjing, and Xiao Nianhe to Kyoto together.
On the contrary, if Su Shen finally failed to obtain the qualification of Shujishi, but was released to other places outside the imperial court, then Meng Zhen would set off directly from Ninghai County and take his three children, including Meng Qi, to the unknown state and county where Su Shen was about to take office.
Meng Hao didn't think about staying in Ninghai County with her three children, she didn't want to be separated from Su Shen for a long time.
As for the Guo family, the Yang family, Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun, they Meng Zhen didn't plan to force each other.
There are those who are willing to go with them, Meng Zhen welcomes them, and those who are not willing to leave their hometowns, Meng Zhen also has land, shops, and houses that need reliable people to help take care of them.
However, with Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun's temperament, Meng Hao felt that they would most likely follow him and Su Shen to leave their hometown.
It's not that Meng Hao thinks that they will want to follow Su Shen, the "official master", but Meng Hao thinks that they will worry that she and Su Shen will be alone in a foreign land.
The superficial view that "when you become an official, you can do whatever you want", Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun have no one.
They have witnessed with their own eyes that the current county lord of Ninghai County led a group of people in Ninghai County in the previous dynasty to secretly confront and circumvent a series of wonderful dramas with the last two Ninghai County Commanders at that time.
The kind of people who think that they can call the wind and rain when they become officials are obviously those who have not experienced social beatings.
And the well-informed Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun will naturally not be so naΓ―ve anymore.
"Master, the porter said that someone had already handed over the post." Haitang, who went to pass the word, actually returned a letter of worship to Meng Zhen.
"Refusal." Meng Hao didn't even read it, so she directly explained the matter of replying to Haitang to deal with, "In the future, except for the Bai family's posts, all other posts will be directly rejected." β
As for the Guo family and the Yang family, they haven't developed the habit of writing worship posts, so naturally they are not among Meng Hao's refusals.
Begonia replied "yes", and then immediately took the post to write a rejection post.
Since then, Su Zhai has not received any so-called guests who came to post with various purposes.
These people with their own ghosts are annoyed, and naturally they have to think of other means.
However, Meng Hao had already distributed a batch of silver coins, asking Liuzi to help her keep an eye on all the people who couldn't wait to post to their house after Su Shen left.
So, soon, General Shen received a special booklet for keeping black accounts from his daughter.
Not to mention, the ultimate goal of these people who beat Meng Hao's idea is without exception, and they are all linked to General Shen.
Of course, General Shen also has people who pay attention to the daily life of his daughter, and those who beat Meng Hao's idea, several henchmen sent by General Shen to Ninghai County are actually stepping up their investigation.
It's just that they are all foreign monks in the end, and investigating anything is far less convenient than Liuzi, a guy who has established a complete intelligence network.
Moreover, they were only secretly hidden by General Shen's orders, so they were naturally not like the sixth son, who could directly get the general situation of the person who handed over the post from Meng Hao.
With these two bends down, the speed of their investigation naturally slowed down.
"You personally send this to Ninghai County and hand it over to Shen Wu, so that she can find an opportunity to go into the Su family's inner mansion to meet the new master. In the future, she and the dozen or so people under her must obey the orders of the eldest lady. β
After reading the booklet, General Shen handed it to one of his henchmen.
And the "Shen Wu" in his mouth is one of his old subordinates who he arranged to guard Meng Zhen in Ninghai County.
This person was originally a scout in the army, and the rarest thing is that she is still a very rare heroine.
The girl is 26 years old this year, but she has never had a biological child.
She had a hard time in her early years, but she broke through with her stubborn temper.
Her gambling father and vicious stepmother want to sell her for money, and she plucks up the courage to hide in the mountains herself.
The well-wisher who saved her was slaughtered by the bandits along with the rest of the village, and the girl fled alone, carrying the only son of the well-wisher.
When begging, she was sold to Willow Lane, Flower Street, and the girl finally miraculously escaped from Willow Lane, Flower Street, with the child.
She set fire to the flower building that bought her, and then took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the small house to rescue her benefactor's son.
After that, she took the child for nearly half a year of wandering, until the Great Zhou army hit her hometown, she relied on her strength and ruthlessness to win the favor of Mrs. Shen, and successfully took the child to join the Zhou army.
The child was sent to the safety of the rear by Mrs. Shen, but this girl followed General Shen and his family all the way to fight.
