Zheng Guogong thought that Aunt Jiang gave birth to three daughters and one son for him, which can also be called a lot of hard work, so he thought about visiting Aunt Jiang, and by the way, he also sped a few words on Zheng Lingyi.

It's no coincidence that Zheng Lingyi just arrived in Xiyuan with his front foot, and sneaked to his granddaughter's history office to ask for teaching.

When Zheng Guogong asked, Qiaoluo and the others naturally covered for Zheng Lingyi, saying that she went to play in Jiaoyuan, which made Zheng Guogong pounce.

"Grandpa Guo, what's wrong?" Seeing that Zheng Guogong's expression seemed to be lost, Aunt Jiang also felt very puzzled, so she asked.

"Oh, no, it's just that I haven't seen that girl for a long time, how is she lately?" Zheng Guogong asked seemingly casually.

"Okay, I can eat and sleep, how is it bad?" Aunt Jiang smiled very gently, but she was also very polite.

However, she always had such a smile in front of Zheng Guogong, which did not make him feel alienated, but made him feel a little more ashamed.

"You've lost a lot of weight." Zheng Guo is fair.

Aunt Jiang didn't speak, just stroked her face and smiled, her expression and posture were all lovely.

Qiao Luo was waiting for the tea, and seeing that Aunt Jiang always didn't mention Zheng Shuangshuang's affairs, she was a little anxious, and she accidentally knocked over the tea, but fortunately, the tablecloth was wet.

Zheng Guogong glanced at her, saw her expression flickering, and saw that Aunt Jiang wanted to speak and stopped.

He wasn't stupid, so how could he not know what was going on with them like this?

"But you want to ask about Shuangshuang?" Zheng Guogong held Aunt Jiang's hand and said.

Seeing his reassuring action, Aunt Jiang felt a chill in her heart, but she still nodded gently.

"Madame told me that she knew that she had done something bad in the past, and if she wanted to make up for it, she wanted to keep both of them by her side, and her future food and clothing would be according to her daughter's share, so you don't have to worry."

It turned out that she wanted to use Zheng Shuangshuang as a tool to whitewash the peace, but Aunt Jiang lowered her eyes and did not speak.

Zheng Guogong said: "You already have two daughters by your side, and it is hard to take care of them on weekdays. ”

"It's nature." Aunt Jiang smiled reluctantly and said.

Because Lu Wei was above the court, he naturally had insight into the direction of the wind early, and he also knew that he would inevitably be weak in the future, and he would have to rely on Zheng Guogong's forces, so he gave Lu Shi a lot of news and asked her to restrain her style.

She was lenient with Aunt Jiang before, because she didn't want to make Zheng Guogong unhappy anymore, and now she let Zheng Shuangshuang raise her in front of her, but also to make face in front of Zheng Guogong.

Aunt Jiang understands this truth, and Zheng Guogong understands it even more, but the relationship between her and Zheng Guogong is originally unequal, and some things can't be said too thoroughly, so they can only pretend to be confused with half-truths.

Aunt Jiang is so obedient, but there is also a little benefit.

Seeing her lowered eyebrows, Zheng Guogong felt a little guilty, so he took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and stuffed them into Aunt Jiang's hand.

"Grandpa Guo." Aunt Jiang didn't know how to react, so she was stunned.

Seeing that the mother is so simple and wooden, but the child raised is a first-class ghost, Zheng Guogong thought it was very interesting, and smiled: "You have also worked hard, rest more, I still have something to do, go first." ”

Qiao Luo sent Zheng Guogong out, and when he turned back, he saw that Aunt Jiang was counting the silver tickets, and there was no such humble color between her eyebrows.

When she looked up, she saw Qiaoluo close the door, and then said, "There are nine hundred taels in total." It's more real than jewelry. The day before yesterday, I heard from the fifteenth that the business outside needs money, and now it's okay, and the money is also available. ”

Aunt Jiang pressed the silver ticket under the makeup box, and when Zheng Lingyi came back, she discussed with her to make the silver taels.

"Why does Grandpa Guo help Madame speak?" Although Qiao Luo was happy to get the money, he was still a little depressed.

"He didn't help his wife, he just thought that the child would live a better life in Anheju." Aunt Jiang was a little gloomy and forced to raise her interest: "It's true, the decent maids around Madame are better off than us." ”

"Auntie." Qiao Luo was next to her and persuaded: "Don't say that, so that my sister should be sad when she hears it." ”

"Yes, yes, don't say it." Aunt Jiang patted Qiaoluo's hand and said.

It was also a shame that Qiaoluo stopped Aunt Jiang's words, otherwise she would have to ask Zheng Lingyi, who pushed the door in, to see her decadence.

"Auntie, Qiaoluo, what did you just say?" Zheng Lingyi gave himself a cup of tea, and the tea went through his throat, and there was a sweet aftertaste.

Zheng Lingyi looked at the teacup in his hand thoughtfully, then looked at Aunt Jiang's expression, and said, "Dad has been here?" ”

Qiao Luo and Aunt Jiang glanced at each other and said with a smile: "I can't hide anything from you, sister." ”

"What did Daddy say?" Zheng Lingyi said again.

Aunt Jiang hesitated a little, but Qiao Luo said a few words, seeing that Zheng Lingyi was a little displeased, Qiao Luo hurriedly turned around and took out the silver ticket to Zheng Lingyi, wanting to make her happy.

Zheng Lingyi took the silver ticket, first was silent for a while, and then said to Qiaoluo: "Since Daddy sent the silver ticket, then let's use it well." Tomorrow when Madame goes out, you will go out and do as we have said before. ”

Qiao Luo put away the silver ticket and nodded.

"Although I am familiar with Jataman, I still have to take a closer look at the deed documents." Zheng Lingyi said again.

Qiao Luo said: "The slave knows that these things cannot be careless. ”

Zheng Lingyi actually doesn't really want to use this money, there is always a feeling of selling girls, but if she doesn't use it, it looks hypocritical.

She felt uncomfortable and drank the rest of the herbal tea in one go.

Qiao Luo and Aunt Jiang were a little afraid to speak, Zheng Lingyi grew up to such an age, and I don't know why, there was gradually a sense of power on his body.

When she was young, she snuggled up to Aunt Jiang, but now everyone relies on her, relies on her to take ideas, and relies on her to plan for shelter.

……

A new emperor ascends the throne and courtiers change. There may be those who rise to the top, or there may be those who have plummeted.

Compared with the turbulent undercurrents in the capital, the turmoil in the suburbs of Beijing is more direct.

The courtiers were imprisoned, the land was confiscated or sold, and a large piece of land was sold at a price.

However, the patches of fertile land were not bought by commoners like Jataman, and they had long been pocketed by the family in batches.

Zheng Guogong also instructed his subordinates to come forward and buy a few, but they were not handed over to the Lu family to take care of, and the Lu family did not know.

Today, it was sunny, and Gansong asked Yabao to see a field that he had already fancied.

"Isn't it more suspicious to be masked in the daytime?" Gan Song glanced at Wu Penalty beside him and whispered.

Wu Zhi actually didn't want to cover his face with a face towel, making it look like a girl who hadn't left the cabinet, even if Gan Song didn't say it, he himself felt awkward.

Just to prevent the Wu family's spies from finding out, they had to do so.

Wu Zhi didn't expect that Wu Zhao was so insistent that he not only insisted on spending manpower to find him, but also always went to Wu Zhao's uncle's house every other month to inquire about Wu Zhi's whereabouts.

Wu Zhi's uncle is called Lu Xian, he is just a small cloth merchant, but he is also very backbone, he is very resentful of Wu Zhao for being framed for his sister and being humiliated by his nephew.

Many businesses that were obtained because of the relationship between the Wu family, Lu Xian lost a lot of money, and he cut it off.

Whenever Wu Zhao came, Qiao Xian scolded him at every turn, and never gave him face.

These things were told to him by Lu Xian when Wu Xian and Lu Xian secretly met outside.

Wu Zhao also asked people to monitor Lu Xian's house, so Wu Zhao couldn't see him from time to time.

However, Lu Xian still loved this nephew very much, seeing that he refused to go back, and was afraid that he would be adrift outside, he would inevitably abandon his studies, so he privately found a school and sent Wu Xian to study as a son of his wife's mother's family.

Although Lu Xian is very flamboyant in front of Wu Zhao, he is actually a hidden character, and so far, Wu Zhao has not found out about it.

Today's tooth protection is also Lu Xian's connection, but this tooth protection does not know Wu Xian's true identity.

"Two sons, it's right in front of you." Yabao squatted on the ridge and folded off a dog's tail grass to pick his teeth.

The land that Gansong was optimistic about before, because it was too close to the Zhuangzi of the regent palace, asked the palace to eat it together, so he had to find another agreeable one.

Gan Song carefully went down from Tian Mo, grabbed a handful of soil and pinched it, although the mud looked dry, it was wet, like it could squeeze out oil and water, and the color was black and swarthy, it was a real good land.

"Childe looks like a civilian, but he looks like an old farmer." Seeing that Gansong was so sophisticated, Yabao's originally relaxed expression was a little more restrained.

Gan Song stood up, dusted off the hem of his clothes and the soil in his palm, and said with a smile: "Little brother said that I am also an old farmer." ”

Before Yabao could understand what he meant, he saw Wu Zhi flash out from behind him, and at some point, he went to the field on the edge to inspect it.

Yabao was a little embarrassed, and said to himself, "Tsk, look at their young age, they are really careless." ’

"Only these six points are fertile land, and the remaining one acre and four points are sandy loam land."

Wu Zhi spoke without the slightest foreshadowing, which was easy to embarrass people.

But Na Yabao is a thick-skinned and slippery eater, so he just laughed and said: "Two sons, there are thousands of truths in this world, but I only believe in one sentence, that is, a penny, a penny." The price I gave you was not enough to buy two acres of fertile land. ”

"You can buy these two acres of land, but it's more expensive." Gansong is amazing, but he is not impatient, but he laughs.

Yabao pretended to be thinking hard, and only after a while did he pat his thigh, stood up from the ridge, pointed to a Zhuangzi not far away, and said, "Then let's do it." The Zhuangzi is also at my price, and you add another two hundred taels, and even the Zhuangzi will be sold to you, so that it will be more convenient to take care of the fields in the future. ”

Seeing Gansong groaning, Yabao made another appearance of not worrying about selling, and said: "Don't want it, son, I will dismantle and sell the fertile land, and the rest of the sandy soil land will be rented to melon farmers." ”

Gan Song seemed to be a little anxious, stomped his feet, and said anxiously: "It's not that I don't want to buy it, but it's really a little expensive." ”

Yabao pretended to sigh, glanced at the two of them, and said, "Look at your young age, I think you have to explain your errand to the elders in the family." But the Zhuangzi looks old, but the front and back occupy a large area, and there is an inner lake in the Zhuangzi, if this is two acres of fertile land, it will not fall into the hands of your brothers. ”

"Add a hundred taels." Wu Zhi didn't know when he stood behind Yabao, and suddenly made a voice that startled him.

Ya Baozheng was about to shake his head, and then heard Wu punish: "Three hundred taels are written on the paperwork, and two hundred and fifty taels are delivered." ”
