"Clothes, shoes and socks, rouge gouache, daily utensils, four treasures of the study......"

Green Smoke is taking everyone to count their luggage. Meng Qingyun went to She County this time, since he said that he lived for a small time, not to mention a year and a half, he always wanted it for three or five months, so he had to bring all the things.

Cui's mother took Meng Qingyun's hand and said aggrievedly: "It's the first time you go out, how can I not follow?" ”

Meng Qingyun earnestly persuaded: "Good mother, you also know what the situation of our family is now. There is no housemother in our second room, my father's life and death are unknown, and the old lady has fallen again. The eldest lady has always been eyeing our second room, and we scared her and asked her to sign an IOU because she had an uncle in charge. Now I'm going out, and if there is no one left at home, I'm afraid the warehouse will be emptied by her. You are the most experienced old man, and I can rest assured that you are watching at home. ”

Cui's mother is very self-aware: "I'm the most useless, what can I do." ”

Meng Qingyun laughed: "Why are you useless? You're useful. Who do you not know up and down in this house? If there's an unfamiliar face, you'll recognize it at a glance. And you have a lot of ears to report God, and whenever there is a stir and triviality in the family, you can know it from the mouths of those mothers-in-law. Besides, I'm not the only one at home with you, and the green smoke. ”

Cui's mother was surprised: "Green smoke is the most powerful, you don't even bring her?" ”

Meng Qingyun: "It is because she is the most powerful, knows the details of our room the most, and is the most calm, so she was asked to stay." ”

Green Smoke heard it, and walked over and said, "Yuan Niang and I have discussed this matter. This time I went to She County, Yuan Niang took Asakusa, Bauhinia, and Xiu'er, Asakusa was careful, Bauhinia was bold, Xiu'er was young, but she was very clever, and it was enough for three people to take care of her. In addition, bring four mothers-in-law to facilitate dealing with outsiders, and two small servants and two long-term followers, how can it be enough. Third Brother Zhang and Fifth Brother Wang will also think of ways to blend into the team, and they will be able to protect Yuan Niang along the way. ”

"On the contrary, let's stay at home, we need to be more cautious, there are mountains and reclamations in the warehouse, don't take the opportunity to be moved away, this is the foundation of our Yuan Niang."

Meng Qingyun said: "That's right, Mom, you and Green Smoke are the ones who have a big responsibility." ”

Cui's mother was persuaded by them, so she could only agree, and Meng Qingyun asked her to keep an eye on the luggage they packed in Asakusa again, saying that the old man was more experienced.

Cui's mother went very coaxed.

At this end, Green Smoke began to discuss with Meng Qingyun again: "The luggage entourage has been arranged, if Yuan Niang has nothing to add, I will arrange for them to start packing." When she goes out this time, how much money is Yuan Niang going to bring? ”

Meng Qingyun said: "I just thought about it. The dowry silver brought by the mother is really a lot, and it is really conspicuous in the treasury, so it is better to take advantage of this time to go out and exchange some gold and silver for silver tickets, one is easy to carry, and the other is to put it in the silver treasury of the money bank, and the eldest lady has no way to make up her mind. ”

So speaking of which, it is the most reliable Delong money village in the world, a century-old brand, Tong Suo is not bullied, and its reputation is the first in the country.

"Then you have to go to the money village, go out with a carriage and horses, and ask the eldest lady for instructions." Green Smoke was a little worried.

Meng Qingyun was very relaxed: "Then please advise, we are transporting our own money, we don't steal or rob, can she still disagree?" You only told her vaguely, just saying that we not only went to the money village to exchange money, but also bought some daily groceries and tuyi for the Bai family, so we need to use a few more cars. ”

Green Smoke thought for a moment, "Yes." ”

She put down what she was doing and went directly to the Lu family's courtyard.

Lu has just received a letter from Bianjing.

There has been a new development in the Chunfu fraud case, and Meng Pei's alleged crime of accepting bribes was repeatedly investigated and interrogated by Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai, and it was suspected that it was perjury. Although Meng Pei is still in custody for the time being, there are already signs of overturning the case.

"Bodhisattva bless! Thank God! ”

Mother Luo clasped her hands together and prayed indiscriminately to the Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, and said happily: "Lu Wangfu is really powerful, Mrs. Hou said that there was an echo in two days, and there was really an echo." ”

Lu Shi lowered his head and recited Amitabha Buddha twice, opened his eyes, and said quietly: "They are indeed powerful, from Bianjing to our Dongyang, even if it is eight hundred miles urgent, it will take three or four days to send the message." Within two days, the case will be overturned, and the letter will be transmitted, are they immortals? ”

Luo's mother was frightened: "What do you mean? ”

Lu Shi: "They have calculated, for the sake of the lives and future of the officials, I have no choice but to agree to their conditions." I'm afraid that before Mrs. Yongkang Hou came to me, they had already intervened in the case and exonerated the officials, so they were able to pass on the latest news of the case to us within two days. It's really kind and calculating. ”

Luo's mother: "In this sense, we have been deceived?" Since the big officials have already been exonerated a long time ago, there is no need to promise them any more. ”

Lu Shi sneered: "How can there be such a good thing!" Since they can exonerate the official, they can naturally turn the case back and confirm his crimes. Life and death are just in their thoughts. ”

The more Luo's mother thought about it, the more she felt that the other party was unfathomable, and she didn't dare to speak.

"Big lady, the green smoke is coming."

The report of the mother-in-law outside made Lu and Luo's mother come back to their senses, and they quickly put away the letter.

Green smoke comes in, and it is customary to salute.

"The eldest lady, our Yuan Niang wants to go out, so she asked me to ask the eldest lady and want to use the family's carriage and horses."

Lu Shi frowned: "What are you going out for?" ”

"This is not going to She County, Yuan Niang will have to go for three or five months, I have a lot of luggage to pack, I want to add some daily groceries, and I have to buy Tuyi for the Bai family, and I also have to go to Qianzhuang to exchange for some silver tickets to carry."

Green smoke is reasonable, and the clouds are light and light.

Lu said: "Then go, I will call the ward carriage stable." ”

"Yes."

Green Smoke saluted and withdrew.

But after waiting for a cup of tea, Lu Shi still felt a little uneasy when he thought about it, and said to Luo's mother: "Go and see, how did Yuan Niang go out." ”

"Yes."

Luo's mother went to the carriage stable.

As a result, I didn't even need to go to the carriage room, and when I arrived outside the second gate, I was shocked by the scene in front of me.

I saw five carts lined up, and people in the twenties and thirties, in groups of two, carried mahogany boxes one by one, winding in a long line like ants moving, and put them on the carts. There are also a number of maidservants and mothers-in-law watching the excitement and talking loudly.

"What, what is this for?"

Bauhinia, who was directing the carrying team, turned around and said to her with a big grin: "Move the silver!" ”

Luo's mother: "How much silver does this cost?!" ”

Zijing looked well-informed: "How much can this have, it's only thirty or twenty thousand." ”

She didn't have a backache when she stood and talked, but Luo's mother only felt that her teeth hurt.

Thirty or twenty thousand? Whose girl goes out with 30,000 or 20,000 silver? Are you going to buy mountains and land?
