Chapter 146 Mission
Besides, isn't there a history of Fan Thorns? Fan Tingshi is this direct boss.
Fang Tongzhi's study is located in a separate small courtyard, the small courtyard environment is very good, and the chrysanthemums of various colors are competing to open, which should have been repurchased not long ago.
There is a separate platform in this small courtyard, which is dedicated to placing flower pots, and there is also a small garden, but Mei Changqing doesn't know about the flowers in the garden.
If he hadn't come with a mission, he would have wanted to have such an elegant yard in his own house.
"Lord Chu, is this the Fang family's garden?" Fan Tingshi glanced at Mei Changqing, who was still motionless behind him, and snorted coldly.
"Lord Chu should have heard a lot about the deeds of His Royal Highness King Liang in the capital, right? Why don't you talk to Lord Chu and this official? ”
It's not that Fan Tingshi hasn't been to the capital, on the contrary, he has to go there every three years, including the year when he visited Hualang in high school, and there are five or six times before and after, but there is no such time, he met His Royal Highness King Liang.
It's also a coincidence that Fan Tingshi is not in a hurry, every time he goes, something earth-shattering will happen in Liang Wangfu.
"Isn't Fan Tingshi a clear conscience? Why be afraid of His Royal Highness King Liang? ”
Mei Changqing's face was strange, but it made Fan Jianshi hold his breath in his heart, and he couldn't go up or down.
"Lord Chu, has you made up your mind to get along with this official?" Fan Jianshi clenched his fists, although he knew in his heart that what happened in Nanyuan County was completely their own family's fault, and they couldn't rely on Mei Changqing.
However, there is still a part of his heart that angers Mei Changqing!
If it weren't for Mei Changqing suddenly picking up the fake official silver, he would definitely solve the matter as soon as he knew that Fan Wuliang was involved in this matter.
Not to mention covering everything up, it's still okay to take Fan Wuliang out.
"Lord Chu doesn't want to say it, forget it, left and right, the official has a clear conscience." Fan Tingshi's words are beautiful, but he has no bottom in his heart.
Since he sent a letter back to Jiangnan's family, he has not received a reply, even Fan Wuliang's death, he didn't say anything.
"Lord Fan, His Royal Highness King Liang is well-known for his discernment, if Lord Fan really has a clear conscience, there is no need to worry about His Royal Highness King Liang's anger."
Thinking that this person didn't do anything bad, and was involved and imprisoned, Mei Changqing felt a little sympathetic.
He deeply understands this kind of bad feeling from his own family. "Fan Thorn History, the tree is divided into branches, and the truth that there are many people dividing the family, you won't understand, right?"
"Did Lord Chu let this official break off the kinship with the uncle's family?"
Fan Tingshi has long been so plain in his heart, but in front of Mei Changqing, he doesn't want to show himself too cold-blooded.
It's good to know your own temperament, and if you expose it, it won't do you half of the good.
"My lord thought about it too much, but Xia Guan didn't say that. Oh, the old butler brought the key. ”
Mei Changqing was cold, and when she saw that the old housekeeper was sweating profusely on a cool morning in autumn, she felt very uncomfortable.
Seeing that Fang Tongzhi was so guarded against his subordinates, and wanted to come to serve the subordinates of the Fang family, life should not be easy, if something happened to Fang Tongzhi, who would be the one who suffered.
The locked door was opened, and the somewhat dim room instantly became transparent, and the study room still faintly exuded the smell of food.
The old butler was a little embarrassed, "Don't be surprised by the two adults, the slave will open the window for ventilation." ”
Originally, this matter was handed over to an old woman who couldn't speak and couldn't read, but now, somehow, the old woman actually had diarrhea, and she didn't have time to listen to the old man's orders.
When the master locked the study, he also specially explained to the dumb woman to ventilate the study.
Smelling the smell of soup, Mei Changqing suddenly remembered the good things he had done, and his expression cracked a little for a moment.
"When you went over just now, your master's stomach was okay?"
"Your Excellency, do you want your servants to tell the truth?" The old butler's expression was a little unnatural.
Mei Changqing suddenly didn't want to know, Fan Tingshi felt that the two were playing dumb riddles, and asked directly, "What happened to Fang Tongzhi's stomach?" This emoji? ”
How did he feel that Mei Changqing and Fang Tongzhi's descendants had unspeakable secrets?
The old housekeeper was a little embarrassed, and covered up his surprise with a cough, "My adult has a slight stomach discomfort today, and he has some diarrhea. ”
Not to mention diarrhea, Fang Tongzhi clearly lost his ability to control himself, not to mention that his stomach was uncomfortable, and he didn't even have time to go to the toilet.
When he passed, Lord Qiu and his advisers jumped out of the pavilion directly, and when they heard that he was going to ask for the key, they drove him over directly.
"Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver tickets, not counting so many properties, Fan Tingshi, do you think this is just Fang Tongzhi's rich property?"
But if you have enough foundation, you don't want to put such silver and title deeds in the study, right? And the title deed is locked in a small cabinet next to the seat.
Sitting, I can look through the small cabinet at any time.
Mei Changqing saw that the lock cylinder on the small cabinet had been pried open, his face froze, and he suddenly didn't want to speak.
Fan Tingshi took the number of land deeds, and was surprised when he lost, "Lord Chu, have you been to Guiyang Mansion?" If not, why don't we accompany Lord Qiu to Guiyang Mansion today, how about it? ”
Twenty house deeds, looking at the deeds written on them, the house is not very good, and I don't know if Fang Tongzhi's house is really bad.
Rao is Mei Changqing's family has enough background, but the twenty mansions still make him a little surprised.
"Lord Fan's proposal is good, the capital is expensive, and the lower officials have never seen a mansion, so this time you can see it."
Even if they came to Nanyuan County businessmen, they didn't have the arrogance to buy real estate for themselves here, there was no way, they still had to be careful to live at home.
Bai Yiyan and Mei Changqing have never thought about buying a house, but now that they see it, isn't it strange.
"Xiaguan remembers, this Fang Tongzhi is an official appointed and dismissed from the capital by the Holy Lord, and his hometown is also in Jinnan Province, which is not far from the capital."
Mei Changqing thought about it, but still took out the survey results he carried with him.
"Fang Tongzhi is a scholar in the seventeenth year of Mingyuan, and he was appointed as the magistrate of the six products, because he got excellent every time he reported his work for three years, and was favored by the saint, and was appointed to Guiyang Mansion in the twenty-third year of Mingyuan."
From the twenty-third year of Mingyuan to today, sixteen thoughts have passed, and Fang Tongzhi is thirty-five years old, but looking at Fang Tongzhi, he can't tell that he is a person of that age at all.
On the paper was something that Chu Fei had investigated in detail.
Mei Changqing said inexplicably: "Fang Tongzhi doesn't have enough background in his family, and he can be regarded as a proud son of a cold family. ”
In other words, Fang Tongzhi really can't earn such a large family property with his annual income, even if his hometown is strong, it is impossible.
Fan Tingshi weighed the broken wolf howl that the dumb woman had finally cleaned up, and said without any emotion.
"Unless Fang Tongzhi's hometown has a future with full stamina, he can turn the tide from the subtleties and create a silver foundation for Fang Tongzhi."
But is this possible? After being poor for so many years, once you gain power, your hometown has a way to accumulate wealth?
"Lord Qiu should like the silver money we found, let's go, and the study will continue to be locked."
Mei Changqing glanced at the nostalgic mute woman, locked the study, and found two generals to guard the study.
Lord Qiu, who had lost a lot of silver recently, suddenly looked at the typed silver ticket in his hand, the corners of his mouth almost reached the back of his ears, and even his heart that had been polluted just now was opened.
"He is worthy of being the son-in-law of Lord Yao, the secretary of the household department, and his ability to find silver is better than that of Lord Yao!"
Lord Qiu's hands with only bones left slapped on Mei Changqing's shoulder, making Mei Changqing almost avoid Lord Qiu's intimate actions.
Obviously, the silver ticket and the title deed were found by Fan Tingshi, and they were handed over to Lord Qiu by Fan Tingshi, okay, has something to do with his white father who is far away in the capital?
"Lord Qiu, you have been distraught to be a lower official, the silver ticket and the title deed were found by Fan Tingshi, you should thank Fan Tingshi for this!"
Lord Qiu happily counted the silver tickets and the emperor's land deed, and didn't care whether the silver would fall into his hands, left and right, just have the silver.
Lord Qiu looked at Mei Changqing, and felt a pity in his heart, Mei Changqing broke away from the Chengen Mansion, but he didn't expect to be favored by Yao Jifeng, the head of the household department, but it's a pity.
Yao is a sugar rooster, if you don't come to the money, you have to post it a little bit, who wants to deal with this?
"Lord Chu, this, you won't report to Lord Yao too, right?"
Originally, he counted the number of silver, but Lord Qiu thought of this possibility and immediately asked.
Mei Changqing's face was covered with circles when she was asked, and she didn't quite understand what Lord Qiu meant. "My lord, what are you going to do if this silver is dirty silver?"
Fang Tongzhi used the soup in the morning, and he still boiled the soup for an hour, but it was said that he kept all the essence in the water and drank a small bowl, which was even more rent than drinking two large pots of tea.
Until noon, Fang Tongzhi couldn't freshen up.
Mei Changqing pinched his fingers and counted the time, ran away with a very clear eye, and also found his little wife who was shopping, and looked at the little wife in the jewelry store, choosing shiny silver jewelry.
The craftsmanship of the silver jewelry in Guiyang Mansion is very exquisite, and a single leaf is more exquisite than that of the capital.
Bai Yiyan removed the white jade pendant on the earlobe and replaced it with two small maple leaf earrings, the white glowing color, under the sun's rays, still shining.
"How? This looks good, right? ”
To take it off, he pulled the broken hair next to his ear behind his ear and pulled out the leaf earrings.
Putting away the white jade earrings that his little wife had replaced, Mei Changqing said with a smile, "It looks good, Yue'er looks good in anything." ”
Even if it didn't sound like a heartfelt compliment, it still didn't dampen her good mood, and she didn't reduce the earrings, but put her white jade pendant into a small box.
"Shopkeeper, see if there are any other styles, if they look good, Mrs. Ben will buy them together."
The color of the silver in Nanyuan County's store is not too bright, but very dark, I don't know if it's because it's adulterated.
Bai Yiyan doesn't like to buy jewelry in Nanyuan County, and always feels that even reading is not true, but now that he has arrived in Guiyang Mansion, he has become extravagant.
"The silver bracelets here are also good-looking, I'm going to sell some of them together and send them to the capital for my mother."
Aurora looked at the silver bracelet on the counter, which was not inferior to the gold bracelet at all, and felt a little more satisfied, and there were many Sanskrit engravings on the surface of the table.
Women in Nanyuan County, almost everyone will wear one or two silver bracelets on their hands, saying that silver bracelets can absorb moisture in the body, and I don't know if it's true.
However, this occasional reading is not important, it is better to believe it or not, and there is no waste.
It's almost Bai Yiyan who takes a fancy to one, even if Mei Changqing is a price, the small box has become a big box, and the jewelry has been brought by herself, and the little wife has forgotten that there are several in the box.
"Yue'er, isn't this a bit much?"
Let's just say that their family is not short of money, but they buy what they see, it's really a bit unbearable, right?
"Too much?" Bai Yiyan hugged the box on the counter, looked at the big box full of silver light, and shook his head silently.
"How can these things be enough? My mother never likes to wear something twice and then change it to a new one, and that's not enough. "Eurora remembered that her mother's makeup box was about to become a big box, how could these be enough for them?
Besides, these are silver jewelry, which are worthless, and you don't feel distressed if you buy too much.
Mei Changqing silently held back the words that came to his mouth, the things that honor Lord Baimu, he can open his mouth to refuse, he must not!
Mei Changqing closed her mouth very wisely, and even glanced at the ebony bracelet on the side, and put it in the makeup.
"Yue'er, what does the white mother like, let's buy some back, there are many things in the capital, and the white mother may not be rare, but the gadgets in Guiyang Mansion, giving them out, can be regarded as a little bit of our husband's and wife's heart, isn't it?"
Mei Changqing felt uneasy every time she thought of Lord Baimu's domineering.
The little wife shouldn't grow up to be like the white mother, right?
Mei Changqing was a little skeptical, after all, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will make a hole. The white mother likes jewelry so much, and the little wife is not much to say!
Sure enough, he is still too poor now, and his background is not enough!
Thinking of the silver tickets and title deeds that were turned out from Fang Tongzhi's kitchen, he didn't even have his own share of the scum, so he was even more resentful.
The goose has been plucked, and he also wants to be a white father, what should he do? "Yue'er, you said that if your husband is a corrupt person who is not very upright, what do you think?"
Mei Changqing's voice was so small that it was almost inaudible.
But Mei Changqing was very close to Bai Yiqing, Bai Yiyan still heard it, only to hear the sound of popping on the counter, Mei Changqing trembled a little in his heart, and turned his head tremblingly to look.
Bai Yiyan originally fell in love with a phoenix-winged hosta and was going to buy it and wear it back, but now, this silver hairpin with wings has been deflated.
Naked threat! Mei Changqing shouted hard in his heart to refute, but he couldn't say a word in his mouth.
The fine tradition of the Yao family, Mrs. Chu's philosophy of life, "Men, you have to give enough face outside, even if there is something annoying, it is a matter of two people behind closed doors, and outside, you can't lose a man's face." ”
Mei Changqing is also the master of Qingtian in Guiyang Mansion, face, she gives!
Walking out of the jewelry store, it was obvious that the outside vision was very strong, but for some reason, Mei Changqing always felt a little cold, and he was not very suitable for this changeable weather.
Xiao Er, who was originally entertaining guests in the store, saw that the biggest customer in the store was gone, so he went to the counter and wanted to pay homage to the silver ticket.
"Shopkeeper, didn't you say we don't collect cash tickets? What you have in your hand is real? ”
Xiao Er's speech was a little improper, and the old shopkeeper picked up the card count and knocked it on the head of the little second brother.
"What nonsense! The silver ticket is of course real! "Lang is a talented woman, looking at her face, she doesn't know the locals around Guiyang Mansion at all.
Although the silver jewelry in his shop is rare, it is far inferior to the things in other shops in Guiyang Mansion, but it is only because of the good style of silver jewelry that it occupies a place.
These two, since they can take a fancy to the silver jewelry in his store, and can buy so much, they also know that they can't be messed with.
What a big man wants is face, can he give them fake silver tickets and fake silver? How can it be!
The little second brother was knocked on the head, and he didn't see the little second brother angry, only smirked.
"Grandpa, you can't blame me for this, I don't have the vision of yours, and it's good to know that it's wronged."
As soon as he heard this, the old shopkeeper said in his heart, is this okay? Picking up the abacus at hand, he was about to beat his grandson, "Nonsense, the affairs of the nobles can be arranged casually?" ”
Although the old shopkeeper also thought so in his heart, he would not say this, after all, this Yuan Dakou gave him eighteen taels of silver!
The wronged boss has already pushed all the boxes to Mei Changqing, and the steps are very big, but fortunately, the inn is not far from the jewelry store, and it will be there in a while.
Mei Changqing held the big box, looked at his little wife with a smile, and quickly closed the door.
"Yue'er, the husband is wrong, the husband shouldn't have this thought, the husband didn't mean it, you have to believe me!"
Mei Changqing put the jewelry box on the table, and hurriedly pulled Bai Yiyan's weak and boneless little hand, trying to exchange forgiveness with sincerity.
It's a pity that Mei Changqing uses this routine a lot, Bai Yiyan already knows it, and even easily dodges Mei Changqing's wolf claws.
"Speak as you speak, don't move your hands or feet."
The arrogant little eyes made Mei Changqing feel shocked, and he understood very well that he had made a big basket this time.
This matter, Bai Yiyan consciously has emphasized it with Mei Changqing several times, and every time this person has promised well, but now he wants to regret it?
Bai Yiyan won't do it, is their family short of money? There is no shortage, and they are even very rich!
The fate of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, she doesn't need to elaborate, that is, at the entrance of the vegetable market, notices are posted, how many have been killed? It is said that the soil in the vegetable market is black and red, isn't it because people kill too much?
It's almost a warning from childhood to adulthood, Mei Changqing still thinks about crossing the thunder pool? It seems that she is still too gentle with Mei Changqing, she should change her strategy!
She just smiled, and even predicted what would happen to Mei Changqing in the future, "By the way, if you are dragged to the vegetable market to be killed in the future, for the sake of our husband and wife now, Mrs. Ben will also collect the body for you, so that you will not be reduced to the point of being thrown into a mass grave and being eaten by dogs." ”
Thinking of Mei Changqing's miserable fate in the future, her eyes turned red.
"You don't have to be grateful to me, after all, Madame Ben is also a good person, isn't she?"
Holy! Mei Changqing wanted to throw away the jewelry box on the table and fight with his wife, who had red eyes in front of him because of his tragic death!
"Yue'er, are you cursing your husband?"
The corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching, and his brain was even more pounding, making Mei Changqing explode.
Bai Yiyan wiped away her non-existent tears, stared at the black slippery, her big eyes full of accusations, and she was very aggrieved, "How could I curse my husband?" After all, what the wife said was true. ”
endured it, but I couldn't help but poke my hand on the little girl's smooth and tender head!
"Hmph, don't think that your husband doesn't know, your heart has long been happy." It's obviously schadenfreude, but I have to pretend to be very worried.
He only knew that he was praised as a "young talent" by the people in the capital, and his reputation was one of the few in the capital. But if it is said that he will go down in history, it is still too far away from him.
"To be honest, Yue'er, I really haven't thought about this problem for my husband." Frowning at his good-looking brows, Mei Changqing thought about how many of them are now famous in history.
Well, except for the calligraphers, and the victorious generals or something, I really haven't heard of anyone else. This goal is too far away.
Just by looking at Mei Changqing's expression, Bai Yiyan knew what this guy was thinking, and he was almost angry with Mei Changqing, this kid who didn't know how to make progress!
"I haven't thought about it in history, is it possible that you still want to stink for 10,000 years?"
Even if Mei Changqing is running towards the goal of YI for 10,000 years, she Bai Yiyan absolutely disagrees, she can't afford to lose this person.
As soon as he thought of being scolded by the world after death, Bai Yiyan couldn't bear it, and his hand itched Mei Changqing's ears, and he could afford to use a lot.
"Ten thousand years of stench? Don't even think about it, our Yao family doesn't have the slightest stain! Miss Ben doesn't want the ancestors of the Yao family to scold me, an unscrupulous descendant! ”
was pinched and hurt his ears, Mei Changqing was stunned, he never thought that his little wife would think of something so far away.
He doesn't seem to have done anything unforgiving, does he?
"It hurts, it hurts, Yue'er is lighter, it's wrong for the husband, the husband shouldn't have that kind of thought, the husband is wrong."
Regardless of whether Yue'er thinks about it or not, it is better to save his ears first, he heard that if his ears are pulled too much, they will become tailwind ears, but he doesn't want to.
Bai Yiqian was still waiting for Mei Changqing to admit her mistake, but after a closer look, this guy was able to get distracted by reading by her ears, which suddenly made her angry.
Pulling her ears couldn't let her vent the anger in her heart, let go of Mei Changqing's ears, and Bai Yiyan directly picked up the feather duster in the porcelain bottle in the corner!
"Say, are you wondering how to deceive me? Want to go along with Old Man Qiu? Isn't it, isn't it? ”
The feather duster is not big enough, so she can only chase Mei Changqing to fight. It's a bit tiring to go around the table.
In the past, Bai Yiyan still called him "Lord Qiu", but now he has become Old Man Qiu.
Poked Mei Changqing's side face, Bai Yiyan began to be deeply jealous again.
It stands to reason that Mei Changqing's every move is under her control, and for Mao, who has been hiding in the mountains for so many days, her skin is still so good?
Smooth and tender, there is no tanning, let alone other vicissitudes.
It's a pity that she doesn't adapt to the weather in Guiyang Mansion at all, she is dying in summer, and the sun is even more vicious, although she has protected herself well, she is still tanned.
was obviously talking about business, but in a blink of an eye, the little wife had already begun to wander out of the world, and Mei Changqing felt that he could slip away.
It's just that he slipped away at the wrong time, and just opened the door, an uninvited guest came outside the door, and Gan Shupei was dragging the reluctant Lord Qiu to visit.
Mei Changqing's eyes quickly wanted to close the door, as if she hadn't seen the two of them.
Gan Shupei, who is a strategist, does not just use his brains, on the contrary, he uses force more to follow Lord Qiu's side.
Yes, Gan Shupei directly stuck his foot in the crack of the door, even if his foot was stuck and hurt terribly, he didn't dare to let go of the hand holding Master Qiu.
Of course, he didn't take his feet back.
As the saying goes, stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, Gan Shupei said with a smile: "Lord Chu, don't come to harm, we adults are looking for you to say something, don't you invite us to come in and sit?" ”
Gan Shupei was still very educated, and he didn't dare to look around in Lord Chu's room.
Mei Changqing twitched the corners of her eyes and kicked Gan Shupei's feet out, "If you have something to say, don't pollute Mrs. Ben's ears." ”
Closing the door, several people went directly to Lord Qiu's room, Mei Changqing sat on the edge of the table and poured herself a bowl of water to drink.
He didn't dare to drink water in front of his little wife just now, and it was embarrassing for him.
