The rainy season in Fuzhou is completely coming, a torrential rain for five or six days in a row makes people unable to step out, Yang Baodai is still protecting the fetus, she felt that she was okay before she wanted to go to the academy to see the situation, but she suddenly became red, and she was scared of herself, and now she can only protect the fetus, Zhao Yuanzhi sent a letter to Mu Changping in the capital, and he had to come and see it in person to feel at ease.

Yang Tofu looked at Zhang Gui'er, who was playing with Luo Yangzhi with his granddaughter, and then looked back at the person who was leaning on the Luohan bed to read the account book, and said with a smile: "You just can't be idle, I heard Yuan Zhi say that when your eldest sister gave birth to a brother, it didn't matter what it was, and she was a lady at home, but you, obviously Yuan Zhi let you leave everything alone, you have to do things and get busy." Now because of Yang Baoyuan's son, he came from Qinghua Town to stay for a short time: "I don't know when this rain will be a head, I heard the boss of the arm seller roast duck say that it was half a month last year." ”

Yang Baodai made an calculation: "In the past, Yuanzhi still had a lot of industries near Qinghua Town, which is not worth mentioning compared to the current one, but if you look at this account, it has not been matched in the past two years, and the steward in Zhuangzi has caught at least three or four thousand taels of silver." This is not a small amount, you can buy a small yard in Fuzhou and buy two girls: "Now it's a rainstorm, I won't tell them more, I'll check all of them first, and when the fetus is stable, I naturally want to take it over to investigate." ”

"Are you going to send them all to the official for strict handling?" Yang Tofu also sighed when he heard the amount, he had never thought about how big a house he could live in before.

Yang Baodai smiled: "You have to spit out all the silver for me first, I'm afraid there are a lot of people involved, this is not something you care about, by the way, how about we open a tofu shop in Fuzhou, so that I can also help the foil, our tofu has a good reputation in Qinghua Town, you have done some in the past few days, I gave it to the people around me, and they all asked me where I got it, Dad, we can now make the business bigger." ”

Yang Tofu laughed: "Do what you do so big, someone will take my position in the future." The ancestors of the Yang family have been in the tofu business for three generations, and now in his hands, his sons are going to take official careers, and his daughters are also official wives, and he alone can not do this kind of work.

"What you said, wouldn't it be good to look for two or three apprentices, didn't Yuan Zhen find a few apprentices for you in Qinghua Town before, but it turned out that you were good, waiting for me to go to the capital with him in the blink of an eye, and drove people away." Yang Baodai couldn't cry or laugh when she said this: "The inheritance of good craftsmanship is the most important thing, and no one said that it must be passed on to the children of his family, you just listen to me, just find a good place in Fuzhou to continue doing business." ”

Yang Tofu held the teacup and said embarrassedly: "Isn't it embarrassing for Yuan Zhen for me to make a living doing this." ”

"He took Baoyuan to repair the embankment before, and came back dirty every day, and he called you with a dirty face on the road before, didn't you dislike him and answer him?" Yang Baodai closed the account and took the initiative to hold her father's hand: "I am your daughter, naturally I want to be filial to you for a lifetime, wait for Baoyuan to go out of the filial piety and spring in the jinshi, buy a small house for him, if you are willing, go to the capital and him together, if you don't want to, just live with me and Yuanzhi, your three children are called by the capital, and the two sons-in-law are also members of the imperial court, if they are not filial to their father-in-law, they are buckled with a big hat······"

Yang Baodai's voice lowered: "Don't talk about Yuan Zhen and Sheng Heng, you have to live with us for the sake of Baoyuan's future, besides, you don't know that Baoyuan and Gui'er are good when they are good, and they all burn the house when they make trouble, you press it, Baoyuan is afraid of you, and Gui'er respects you, isn't it very good." She felt that it was time for Yang Tofu to enjoy the blessings, but this person just couldn't be idle.

There was a roar of thunder outside, and Yang Baodai frowned: "Diancui!" You go and see why the young master hasn't come back yet. ”

Diancui was the female guard that Zhao Yuanzhi gave her, and Yang Baodai said: "Chaochao take the cloak I made for Yuanzhi newly, forget it, just one more thing I did before, and give Baoyuan another one, so as not to make that kid shout again." ”

Chao Chao sighed, Zhang Gui'er also came over to talk to them at this time, and said: "There are two counties in Fuzhou that are said to have begun to flood, and the downstream is fine, and the refugees who lived before are now properly resettled. ”

"What's wrong with you?" Yang Baodai looked at Zhang Guier's worried appearance.

Zhang Gui'er said: "If I remember correctly, the two counties upstream only allocated funds to repair the embankment last year, and it stands to reason that it will not be flooded, so how can this good end be flooded again." ”

"You don't know, these small local county officials have a big right to Emperor Bi, and the money allocated from the treasury is tacit, and the lives of the people are nothing in their hearts, and the emperor of the capital is far away, and when the time comes, the floods this year are too severe, and let the court take the money, and all the counties are clear, and they don't want to care about the lives and deaths of the victims, so Yuan Shu came to Fuzhou and was willing to take care of it.

Yang Baodai frowned slightly: "This group of dog officials." She said: "Fortunately, Luo Xuanxue is also here now, and he also brought the army over, if there are victims or disasters, they can be solved as soon as possible." ”

At night, Yang Baodai saw that Zhao Yuanzhi hadn't come back yet, so she went to Yingbi to wait for him in person.

When Zhao Yuanzhi came back, he looked at Yang Baodai in the corridor, frowned, and said, "Aren't you messing around?" As a result, Xiao Si handed her the umbrella and hugged her back, and said to him: "Baoyuan won't go back tonight, there is something for him to do at the end of the yamen." He carefully escorted his wife back: "Why is it raining so much, what are you doing, it's not like I can't find my way back." ”

When he returned to the house, Yang Baodai didn't have anything to do, Zhao Yuanzhi's half of his shoulders and back were wet with rain, he came back from the clean room next to him to change into clean clothes, and saw Yang Baodai drinking fetal pills: "This child is better to be a son, toss you like this, I will beat him when he is born." ”

"What, girl, are you going to be delicate?" Yang Baodai gave him a blank look.

Zhao Yuanzhi disagreed: "How well-behaved our sister Chun is, she doesn't want me to fuck half a snack, and she looks good, I will definitely raise her as a man in the future, so I won't lock her in the backyard." He likes his daughter very much, he said about today's period, while eating: "I estimate that I will go out two days after tomorrow, you should wait for me to come back at home, don't go out recently, the weather is bad, don't let the people at home go out, there is some chaos outside." ”

"Disaster victims coming?"

Zhao Yuanzhi held the bowl for a while: "I have to go to the source to see the situation, I also went to the excerpt at the other end of the capital, and the Beizhen Fusi will come back soon, and if someone from the Chamber of Commerce comes to you, don't see it, understand?" He said with a very serious gaze: "Do you remember clearly?" ”

Yang Baodai hadn't seen him like this for a long time, and nodded: "I'll take care of the baby at home now, and I won't take care of the rest, what about the Chamber of Commerce, I have a academy now, the southwest market——"

"I'll just say why don't you pay attention to Fuzhou, the feeling is that you want to go to the southwest to get oil and water." Zhao Yuanzhi laughed: "Chengcheng, maybe it will be these chambers of commerce that will come to beg you, you can think about the rouge shop and the ready-to-wear shop, there is no shortage of rich people over there, but there is a lack of novelties, tea has always been there over the years, and I will tell you about the doorway when the time comes." As he spoke, he got up: "I still have some things to deal with, don't wait for me." ”

Zhao Yuanzhi wiped his mouth: "Anyway, you remember, don't ask about anything recently, take care of it, Luo Xuanxue will follow me all the way, Baoyuan will be left to you, don't ask what he does, I will explain it to him." ”

Yang Baodai snorted, Zhao Yuanzhi walked over and kissed her eyebrows, and went out.

Waiting for Zhao Yuanzhi to come back, it was already past the time, the rain outside did not see a little less, he washed in, and watched his wife sleeping in his daughter, he turned over, Yang Baodai took the initiative to snuggle over, and easily fished his daughter into his arms, Zhao Yuanzhi simply hugged the mother and daughter, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at his daughter still gnawing her hands in her sleep, it was funny.

As a result, he took it out for her, Sister Chun immediately opened her eyes, and looked at her father with a look of wanting to cry or not, Zhao Yuanzhi twisted her little face, and simply picked her up and walked around twice, he has been very busy recently, and he has no time to take a good look at his girl.

Sister Chun leaned on her father's shoulder and continued to gnaw her hands, still looking drowsy, but she smiled at her father twice, hugged his neck tightly with one hand, Zhao Yuanzhi coaxed her to sleep, and blew out the lamp and candle to sleep with him.

When the day was about to dawn, there was a hurried knock on the door outside, Yang Baodai was busy getting up, Zhao Yuanzhi pressed her shoulder, got up and put on her clothes, pushed open the door and listened to the words in Li Tong's mouth, whispered two words, and looked deep twice, then came back and said: "I'm going out now, there are some urgent matters, it is estimated that I will come back in four or five days, you continue to sleep, remember my words, don't go out and don't see anyone, understand?" ”

Yang Baodai nodded and hugged Sister Chun: "I'll wait for you at home with the child." ”

Zhao Yuanzhi put on his clothes two or three times and went out, Yang Baodai continued to sleep back with the child in her arms, and when she woke up, she heard earth-shattering news.

In two counties upstream of Fuzhou, the dikes were washed out.
