Chapter 353, the people do not fight with the officials
"Great, since you have forgiven me, then I can't just talk about it, so let's do it, it just so happens that today is a rest day, I just received the monthly allowance a few days ago, I invite everyone to go down the mountain to have a delicious meal."
Cheng Jingrui's eyes lit up instantly when he heard the delicious food, and he also hoped that everyone could forgive him as a cousin, and with the friendship of inviting guests to dinner, how good it would be if this little contradiction in the past disappeared, "Okay, okay, Su Zhen, Xu Shen, let's go down the mountain together." ”
Su Zhen was still thinking about the homework assigned by Mr. in his heart, and said with some hesitation, "But I haven't been able to memorize the book that Mr. asked me to memorize, forget about this meal, Jing Rui If you want to go down the mountain, go with Jing Luo, and when you finish eating, you can pack some for us and come back." ”
"It's just a text, Mr. won't let everyone get up and memorize, only roll call, there are so many people in the class, they won't necessarily draw us, and going down the mountain won't delay too much time, we still have so much time." Jing Rui persuaded Su Zhen, he knew that Su Zhen would always not be able to withstand his soft grinding and hard bubbles, and he would always agree to his request in the end.
Jing Rui won't insist too much on other things, but this time it's his cousin who has changed his mind, and he can take advantage of his cousin once, what a good thing, don't take advantage of it.
"Xu Shen, you would have known this article taught by Mr. a long time ago, you don't have to memorize it, when the time comes, you can help Su Zhen and me, as well as explain the scriptures, it will also be convenient for us to recite, let's go, after we went up the mountain, we haven't been down the mountain for almost five months, let's go, let's go down the mountain together."
Xu Shen still didn't nod, he was skeptical of Cheng Jinglue's sudden enthusiasm.
Cheng Jingrui suddenly remembered something, took Xu Shen's hand and said, "Xu Shen, Sister Su is coming, didn't you say before, she takes such good care of you and cares about your hand, can your hand be so good thanks to Sister Su, it just so happens that she is coming over this time, let's go down the mountain and buy her a gift." ”
This sentence shook Su Zhen and Xu Shen, who were not at all moved by Cheng Jing's invitation to dinner at the beginning.
"Alright, let's go down the hill then."
The three children cleaned up a little and followed Cheng Jingluo down the mountain.
During the monthly holidays, the college does not stop students from going down the mountain.
When Su Zhen arrived at the academy, she didn't find Su Zhen at all, and after listening to the reaction of the people in the dormitory, she learned that the three children followed Cheng Jingluo down the mountain.
Hearing this, Su Zhen knew that Su Zhen was probably coaxed away by someone sent by Shangguan Wei.
However, the amulet she gave to Su Zhen did not convey any discomfort, which means that the child was not harmed.
She held her breath and quickly located the amulet.
Su Wu did not go down the mountain immediately, but tied the horse to the stable of the academy, and then walked down the mountain, outsiders got up, she was quite leisurely, walking and stopping all the way, picking flowers and breaking grass, and seemed to really believe that her brother just went down the mountain to play.
"Madam, when Su went to the academy, she found that her brother was missing, but she was not in a hurry, and now she is slowly descending the mountain." Mu Ji, who was in charge of stalking, that is, the strong man who failed in the bet with Su Wu last time, returned home to report.
Mrs. Mu was holding a bouquet of flowers in her hand, inserting them into the bottle, practicing flower arrangement, and sneered when she heard this, "What a fool, I don't have a sense of crisis at all, a child of someone who has a bad relationship with her family suddenly finds her own child to go down the mountain to play, doesn't she realize a trace of conspiracy?" ”
"You keep watching, and if she finally finds out that her brother is gone, and starts to be anxious, you find another opportunity for a beggar child to bring her our words, I just want to see how anxious and worried she looks."
"Yes, ma'am."
After an hour, Mu Ji returned home again, "Madam, we have lost the trace of Su Wu. ”
"Waste, stalking a person, can you still lose it? The county seat is so big, dig her out for me! Mrs. Mu almost threw away the teacup in her hand.
Shangguan Wei had finished his official duties at this moment, and when Fang entered the house, he heard Mrs. Mu's angry scolding, and hurriedly comforted, "Madam, let's listen to Mu Ji first tell me where she got lost, in fact, the child has fallen, and the person who should be anxious is her, she doesn't know that the child has fallen now, and she is more anxious than us when she realizes it for a while, we don't have to go to her, and she has to come to the county government to report to the official after a while." ”
"What my husband said is that I was too impatient." Mrs. Mu straightened the hair hanging on her forehead, all the ugliness she made when she came to Nanxi County was because of Su Wu, and the bracelet was also broken by Su Wu, although this matter was pressed by the family in the capital, but the silver beads spent can make the Mu family lose a layer of skin, which makes her face how Su Wu can be calm.
The family wrote to scold her, saying that she was not acting properly, and told her that she was not as good outside as in the capital, and that these people in the poor countryside did not know awe, and it was easy to rush against her, and asked her to listen to Shangguan Wei's words more.
This made Mu Wanling feel that she couldn't raise her head in front of Shangguan Wei, and Shangguan Wei listened to her before!
"Mu Ji, tell me, where did Su Wan get lost?"
"When Su Wu went down the mountain, she stopped all the way, picking flowers and folding grass, I seemed to be some herbs that could be used for medicine, and then the more she picked the herbs, the more fascinated she became, and the deeper the forest she entered, and our people didn't dare to follow too closely, and then she lost it, but according to the traces, she should still be picking herbs in the forest of the mountain of the academy."
"However, I just can't find her, and I don't know how she got there."
Mrs. Mu clenched her handkerchief, "What an uninformed hillbilly, and she dares to pick the herbs of the academy, so let her pick the flowers slowly, leave her alone, and wait until she goes down the mountain to find someone." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
Su Wu hid in the middle of the treetops, watched Mu Ji leave the backyard, and left again to find someone to watch outside.
In the inner room, Mrs. Mu and Shangguan Wei continued to chat, "Husband, do you think that if you do this, she will really hand over the formula?" ”
"Of course, she is so precious to her brother, how can she not save him, even if she can really give up her brother, her reputation of Suji Sugar Factory will also be ruined, and her reputation is not good, and she will always find an opportunity to suppress her in the future." Shangguan Wei personally poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Mu and filled it for herself.
said leisurely, "The people don't fight with the officials, a little girl like her doesn't understand, we can pinch her to death casually, Madame really doesn't have to do it herself, and people like her are angry." ”
In the end, Mrs. Mu still accepted the lesson of her family, and calmly accepted Shangguan Wei's suggestion, "What the husband said is that anyway, when we get her secret recipe, we will also be able to take a stake in white sugar at that time, and the informant will return, then her sugar factory will have thirty workers, and she can produce 2-5 tons of white sugar in one day, which is more than the amount produced by one hundred workers of the Tang family in a week." ”
