467: Secretly informing

Young Master Rong Jiu had never lost such a face.

When I was young, I was under the fence, and there were many filthy people in the big family, but I suffered a lot of losses, and I suffered a lot of grievances...... But that was many years ago!

Since his sister married into the Shi family, Rong Jiu has never been troubled in the Rong family, and when Lord Shi became the governor of Caoyun, everyone in the Rong family is going to hold Rong Jiu, and the old lady of the Rong family has said countless times in front of outsiders, Rong Jiu is her most beloved grandson, who wants to give Rong Jiu anger, the old lady can't spare anyone.

The Rong family has a large population, and there are twenty or thirty grandsons and granddaughters of Lao Taijun, and Rong Jiu can overpower others to become Lao Taijun's favorite, and everyone knows what the reason is.

Governor Shi was too helpful to the Rong family's business.

Holding Rong Jiu is holding Rong Jiu's sister, and holding Governor Shi.

The Rong family held him, and people outside the Rong family also held him, and after a long time, Rong Jiu also forgot the grievances he suffered when he was young.

Now that he met Cheng Qing, who didn't give face, he tore off Rong Jiu's face, and said nakedly that his so-called face depends on his sister marrying well, and Rong Jiu doesn't have any ability of his own - Rong Jiu thought about it in the cabin for a long time, and found that Cheng Qing was actually telling the truth, if he didn't ask for help from the Shi family, he couldn't do anything about Cheng Qing!

Thinking about it like this, Rong Jiu was even more annoyed.

Wouldn't he really be able to make Cheng Qing admit his mistake if he didn't ask for help from the Shi family?

Rong Jiu sat in the cabin for two hours, staring at Cheng Qing's ship through the cabin window, not knowing what he was thinking.

The delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table were already cold, and a maidservant girl came in to clean up.

The descendants of the Rong family all knew that Rong Jiu had been swept away, and the maid's distressed eyes were red.

"Young master, the cook cooked porridge, you can use it as much as you want, don't spoil your own body for the sake of some people who can't get on the table."

If this is in the Rong family, the ninth young master has not eaten a meal, and the old lady must be distressed.

"Someone who can't get on the stage?"

Rong Jiu muttered: "If the surname Cheng can't be on the stage, then what is it to me who was ridiculed by him!" ”

The maid found out that she had said the wrong thing, which pot was not opened, why did she mention the surname Cheng.

However, is there really no way for the Ninth Young Master to take the surname Cheng?

Although the surname Cheng is an official, he is so young, and the official position will not be too big.

The prefect of Yangzhou has to be polite when he sees the Ninth Young Master, all the officials are like that, and the officials are afraid of the big ones, as long as the Ninth Young Master is willing to ask the Shi family for help...... The servant girl had just shown a little bit of this meaning, Rong Jiu was already furious, and a wine glass hit the servant girl's forehead, and the servant girl who poured her words with a face of wine.

"Get out!"

The servant's fart slapped on the horse's leg, and when Rong Jiu heard that he was going to ask the Shi family for help, he would remember Cheng Qing's words to ridicule him!

The servant girl retreated pitifully, and only dared to wipe the wine stains off her face when she left Rong Jiu.

I didn't dare to blame the Ninth Young Master, I only dared to blame Cheng Qing, staring at Cheng Qing's ship with vicious eyes.

The little guy beside Rong Jiu came to probe and asked when Young Master Jiu would leave the dock.

"My aunt is pregnant again, if it weren't for the old lady's birthday, the ninth young master would not have left Huai'an to go back to Yangzhou, now it is delayed, if you don't set off, where can you catch up with the old lady's birthday banquet......"

The little guy frowned.

didn't catch up with the old lady's birthday banquet, the old lady would definitely not blame the ninth young master, the ninth young master would not be wrong, the fault was the people who served by the ninth young master's side.

The little guy was uneasy, looking at the appearance of the ninth young master, did he continue to chase the official surnamed Cheng?

What is there to chase, the official surnamed Cheng is going to Huainan for disaster relief, and the scarf thief in Huainan is very powerful!

The little guy gritted his teeth: "I can't let the Ninth Young Master go to Huainan, the Ninth Young Master must have three long and two short, we have no good end for a boatload of people, the Ninth Young Master only listens to his aunt's words, we have to report a letter to Huai'an City!" ”

The Ninth Young Master will definitely blame the little guy for making his own decisions, and marry the aunt and grandmother of the Shi family, but he will reward the little guy for his loyalty.

Cheng Qing and his entourage moved grain to the wharf, the wharf was very lively, there were dozens of people on the big boat of the Rong family, and it was not easy to notice that they secretly left a Rong Jiu.

……

20,000 stone of grain, only a few dozen boats are needed to go through the canal, and by land, more manpower, mules and horses are needed.

Continuing to the west along the Huai River is the most trouble-saving and labor-saving route, but Cheng Qing changed from water transportation to land transportation, in addition to the shallow water level of the Huai River, it is more important to continue to walk the Huai River is already very unsafe, there is a section of the river above under the control of the scarf thief, and continue to go west along the Huai'an, which is really to send grain to the scarf thief.

The local government was already trying its best to assist Cheng Qing, and in the evening of the second day, the people came to help transport grain with their own mules, horses, cattle and other livestock.

Most of the people who brought livestock to pull grain also put carts on their livestock, a cart can hold hundreds of kilograms, and those who do not have livestock and carts can only rely on manpower to carry them, and on the third day, there are two or three thousand people who come in a mighty way.

Few people came voluntarily, there are displaced people who escaped from Huainan everywhere, and the common people have also heard the news of the brutality of the scarf thief, how dangerous it is to go to Huainan now!

But this kind of thing of service, regardless of whether they are willing or not, as long as the government recruits them, they must come.

If you don't want to come, you will be exempted from military service with silver, and if you can't take out the silver, you can only go to Huainan with a hard head. Not only did these men help carry the grain, but they also had to carry rations for themselves and their livestock when they set out.

Cheng Qing felt very uncomfortable.

But there is no reason for her to pay these people out of her own pocket.

If she wants to do this kind of thing, it is to be a 'virtuous name', the local officials will hate her, and the emperor will not praise her, even the people who transport grain, and they are estimated to be trembling when they get paid, I am afraid that Cheng Qing will give them money to buy their lives, and recruit them to go to Huainan to die!

When something doesn't go out of place, it's best not to be smart.

Transporting grain can't go on a business trip, Cheng Qing can only harden his heart and do his own thing. She asked people to register the number of catties of grain that each man was responsible for, and when it arrived at the destination, it had to be weighed one by one, so as to prevent some people from secretly hiding grain!

20,000 stone of grain was transferred to the land, and he worked overtime overnight, and he did not leave until the evening of the third day.

During this period, the Rong family's ship has been quietly docked at the dock and has not moved, Cheng Qing has never seen Rong Jiu again, but she knows that this person is most likely the same as she guessed, thinking of winning back a city.

I just don't know if Rong Jiu is the kind of character who cries and asks the Shi family for help when he is wronged?

If Rong Jiu is the best to keep up with the grain transportation team, if he doesn't follow, Cheng Qing is not afraid.

On the canal, she was afraid of the attack of the water bandits, because she was afraid that the grain would fall into the river.

On land, the advantage of the water bandits is gone, and Cheng Qing's defense force is at least two or three hundred people, and he will not be afraid of the water bandits.
