Chapter 78 mentions sad things
"Huh?" Lu Shi stopped what he was doing and turned his head.
"Her grandmother is the sister of Lord Sun of our government office." He Daoan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "When her father died, Master Sun also sent his grandson Sun Xuewen to mourn. The last time I went to Bacheng, I met them on Songluo Mountain. Moreover, Miss Zhong seems to be friends with Master Onishi. ”
The Lu family has lived in Fuling County for many years, and she knows very well the situation in the homes of several key officials of the Fuling Mansion.
She calmly poured cold water on her son: "Her grandmother has long since died, and her father is gone, and this family is too far away and too light." Besides, if the Sun family really valued her, they would not let a step-son's son keep bullying them. ”
He Daoan was silent.
Lu Shi sighed and gave his son a comforting word: "I'll go to Beijing to have a look first." If there is no suitable candidate, then consider that Miss Chung. ”
"Okay..."He Daoan is no longer a child, so he naturally won't believe his mother's words to coax the child.
There are so many officials in the capital, and there are also many magistrates. The He family relied on the big tree of the eldest prince to provide slow and non-stop silver money for the eldest prince to seize power. As long as it is this faction, or who sees the eldest prince and wants to fight for the dragon's merit, there are always those who give the He family face and are willing to use their daughters for political investment. The mother went, as long as she was willing, there was no daughter-in-law who she couldn't choose.
He stood up dejectedly and said goodbye to his mother. But just as he was about to go out, he met his sister who pouted and came in, and when he saw him, he complained: "Brother, that Yi Gongzi, when he saw me and his second sister, he hid and ignored people at all." ”
On the one hand, the interests of the family, and on the other hand, friends, He Daoan has always been very difficult for this matter. At this time, seeing his sister complaining to him, he couldn't help but say irritably: "That's because you don't have the ability." "I went out on one side.
He Sizhao cried out with a "wow", stomped his feet and said coquettishly to his mother: "Mother, look at my brother'......"
"Okay, okay, what a person, and crying." Lu Shi comforted her daughter softly, and taught her again, "The situation in Mr. Yi's family is complicated, and he needs a wife with powerful means to hold on." If you really want him to take a fancy to you, you need to show some powerful means, it's useless to just cry and cry......"
He Dao'an, who had walked out of the house, faintly heard this and couldn't help but sigh.
Because of the relationship between his relatives, although he thinks that his sister is good, but in his heart, whether it is appearance or ability, his two sisters are too far from Zhong Lingyu. Yi Yan's family is illustrious, and now he has followed the eldest prince. In the future, when the eldest prince ascends the throne, it is understandable that he will be the grandfather of the country; But once the eldest prince fails and the third prince ascends the throne, Yi Yan will also fall into a situation from which he will never recover. Therefore, what kind of wife he marries only depends on his ability, not his family background. If it were him, he would also choose Zhong Lingyu instead of his two younger sisters.
If you don't get help, you will drag your feet.
It's just that he really can't say this to his mother and sister.
In the middle of spring, the time is just right. The flowers are red and willow green, and the warblers are crying everywhere. Zhong Lingyu took the horse shopkeeper, guards and maids from Bacheng, stopping all the way to check the tea garden or a place suitable for planting tea trees.
Zongfei, not far from the southeast direction of Bacheng, began to grow tea as early as the time of the first dynasty. In the past, the group tea was prosperous, and the tea leaves were steamed and pressed into a dough by steaming the green method; Later, the Xing Dynasty abolished the group and dispersed, and the tea people here made steamed green loose tea. Tea made by steaming green always has an astringent taste, which is much inferior to the pineapple pine made by stir-fried green method.
Therefore, the tea plantations here are very cheap compared to Songluo Mountain, and as long as you can afford the price, you can buy anything, unlike Songluo Mountain, where it is difficult to find an acre. As long as Zhong Lingyu's idea is proven to be feasible, buying a large tea garden here and making tea leaves with the method of roasting green is promising, even if the taste is slightly inferior to that on Songluo Mountain.
Zhong Lingyu believes that even if the fresh leaves here are slightly inferior due to soil problems, the use of silver pot to fry the tea leaves can make up for its shortcomings, so that the taste of the tea is no worse than that of the tea fried by other tea farmers in Songluo Mountain.
In order to confirm her thoughts, she stopped in Zongfei and asked Ding's mother to rent a separate courtyard in the town inn, while the shopkeeper Ge came forward to buy some fresh leaves in the tea garden.
"Shopkeeper Ge, how does it taste?" She put down the teacup in her hand and looked at the shopkeeper Ge with a smile.
The old face of the shopkeeper Ge was wrinkled with a smile, his cloudy eyes were as bright as stars at this time, there were faint tears in the corners of his eyes, and even his voice trembled a little: "Miss, let's ...... Is this a success? ”
Zhong Lingyu didn't say anything, raised his hand again, and Lichun took out another cup of tea and put it in front of the shopkeeper Ge.
"Shopkeeper Ge will try this cup again." Zhong Lingyu made a gesture of please.
Shopkeeper Ge looked at the cup of tea, and then at Zhong Lingyu, when he put down the cup of tea in his hand, he almost knocked over the teacup.
He took the freshly brewed cup of tea, looked at the soup first, and then smelled the tea carefully, then put the cup to his lips, took a sip, closed his eyes and savored it carefully.
After a long time, a line of tears flowed out of his eyes.
He felt out of his temper, quickly put down the teacup, turned sideways and wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and said to Zhong Lingyu: "Okay, good ......"
Despite all the inhibitions, he was still choked up and unable to speak.
Zhong Lingyu understood Ge's mood very well at this time.
Her father, who took over the tea plantation from her grandfather, struggled and worked hard in Ba County all his life to achieve what he is today, just ahead of most people in Ba City. And she, with just one move, can open up a new world and create a different brilliance.
She explained softly: "I also mentioned this to my father when he was alive. But before it could be implemented, my father died of illness. If my father was still here, the family would not have faced so many tribulations, and it would have been delayed until this time before they came out to buy the tea plantation......"
"I understand, I understand......" Shopkeeper Ge calmed down and nodded repeatedly.
This young lady of her own family has shown amazing business talent since she was a child. The Zhong family's big house can have today's situation, and it is inseparable from Zhong Lingyu's help. Zhong Deping often sighed before his death, only hating Yu'er for not being a man.
This is also the reason why Zhong Deping thought about it for a long time and set up the Ye family for Zhong Lingyu. The Ye family has a simple population, and the ability of the young master of the Ye family is far from Zhong Lingyu. In the future, Zhong Lingyu became a relative, and she could still show her talents, so that she would not be locked up in the inner house and be an ordinary deep lady.
"I just thought of the master. If the old man is still alive, I don't know how happy he will be when he sees the good situation in the future......" said the shopkeeper Ge.
Zhong Lingyu was reminded of his deceased father by Shopkeeper Ge's words, and couldn't help hiding his face and crying.
No matter how strong a woman is, it is made of water, and the atmosphere in the room is very depressing for a while.
But fortunately, the shopkeeper Ge soon knew that this mood was inappropriate, which caused Zhong Lingyu's sadness, and after calming down, he returned to the topic of buying a tea garden: "Then Miss, do we want to buy a tea garden here?"
It is not far from Bacheng, and I bought a tea garden, which is convenient for the young lady and the young master to come and take care of it. ”
Over there, Chunli and the other maids had already fetched water to clean Zhong Lingyu's face.
Zhong Lingyu washed her face, her eyes were still red. She lowered her eyelids, straightened the skirt on her knees with her hands, shook her head, and whispered in a voice that was still a little nasal: "I want to move my family to Fuling Mansion." ”
