A few days ago, the Yamen handed over the news, saying that there were a large number of mountain bandits gathered in Tiger Wolf Mountain, and they were afraid that they would go down the mountain to loot, and Pengpu Township was the most rich businessmen in the surrounding counties and towns.

The wealthy families of Pengpu have all got the news, and in the past two days, they have invited craftsmen from outside in a panic to come back, strengthen their gates and courtyard walls, and invite the martial arts masters in the city.

Yesterday, after Feng Lao'an arranged the craftsmen into the mansion, he first ordered the craftsmen to reinforce the gate with thick fir wood, and then laid a sharp weapon on the courtyard wall to prevent people from crossing the wall.

The courtyard wall of the inner courtyard was raised, the gate was reinforced, and a few sturdy mothers-in-law on the stove were instructed to lead the maids and maids to patrol the night. And let people put a few large jars under the courtyard wall of the inner courtyard, if someone crosses in from outside the wall, they can also hear some movement and take precautions.

Fortunately, a few days ago, in order to capture Bijuan, who was serving by Cai's side, the black-clothed guards of the Liang Wangfu were transferred from Chengjiang, and those black-clothed guards all came out of the palace with her, and their skills were much better than those rough and rough housekeepers in the mansion.

Thinking that they were guarding the courtyard at any time, the Liang family, who was still a little nervous before, suddenly calmed down.

However, the Lin family and Sister Tang are also in the house, she can't ignore them, the black-clothed guards have limited manpower and can't be easily deployed, so they can only think of a way to take the Lin family and Sister Tang to Qiuyue Courtyard to live for a few days, and after the turmoil subsides, let people prepare a carriage and go back to Chengjiang together.

Liang Shi thought, glanced at Xinghuang who was standing aside, and saw that she looked like she was already panicked, and the anger in her heart didn't come anywhere, she had been serving by her side for so many years, and she came out of Liang Wang's Mansion, what kind of wind and waves didn't pass? With such a panicked appearance, if you walk out and are seen by others, maybe what others should think?

Liang didn't look at her, and said coldly, "Xinghuang, now that the old lady and Sister Tang are still in the house, if we go outside the city, what should they do?" And those mountain bandits just gathered on Tiger Wolf Mountain, and didn't kill them? What are you panicking about now?"

As soon as Liang finished the previous sentence, the next sentence followed. "Even if those mountain bandits enter the city by then, let's hide in the house, and there are so many small families guarding outside, we won't be able to break in!"

When Mother Qin heard this, looking at Xinghuang's current appearance, she really didn't look like it, so she still followed her wife out of King Liang's mansion? Why are you so breathless? is the same as serving the little maid outside, saying that the wind is the rain. followed with a sentence.

"Xinghuang, in the end, you have served your wife for so many years, why do you say that wind is rain? The mountain bandits on Tiger Wolf Mountain are gathered, and their own officials and men are dealing with it, you are a little girl, there is no need to follow and worry. ”

Seeing that the two people in the room were ventilating their noses to talk about her, Xinghuang had to put away the panicked look on her face, came out with a smile on her face, took the tea cup brought in by the little maid, and personally delivered it to the high table next to Liang's.

Then he knelt down, looked guilty, and said slowly: "Please punish the wife, it is the slave and the maid who have listened to the rumors and rumors spread by outsiders, so that the wife will be persuaded to go out of the city to live temporarily, and it has made the wife unhappy, please ask the wife to punish the slave and the maid heavily." ”

Liang knew that Xinghuang was not smart, she was a fool, no matter what the people outside said, she could always listen to it, and she couldn't retell it again in her mind, and she didn't want to say anything about Xinghuang, so she let her go out with the other maids who were waiting in the house.

Liang was lying on the shore of the book, writing that he was going to have someone hand over Chengjiang's letter to Gu Licai, and Qin's mother added oil to the oil lamp on the bookcase, and at the same time told Liang about what had happened in the house these days.

"Madam, I heard the news from the mother-in-law on the other side of the back room, saying that Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Lin have discussed and decided to stop the porridge shed in front of the house. There is not much surplus grain in the house, and there is still some surplus grain in the kitchens of each house and courtyard, and now I am waiting for the grain village in the south of the city outside the house to send grain. ”

Liang listened, but the pen in his hand didn't stop for a moment, but he said: "It's okay to stop the porridge shed outside the house, so that we can be quiet, otherwise we will be noisy early in the morning, and people who don't know will think that we are a vegetable market." This year's poor grain harvest is not as good as in previous years, and the rice merchants have raised the price of rice all of a sudden, which has led to the displacement of so many people. ”

After Liang finished writing the letter to Gu Licai, he gently blew the ink on his head, handed the letter to Qin's mother and asked, and said.

"The torrential rain in Punpu for months has soaked the vegetables in the fields, and many farmers have cried to death in the fields, and the vegetable vendors have also raised the price of vegetables. Nowadays, how many families in the city have eaten the last meal and have not had the next meal. There are mountain bandits peeping at the back, and this is the real eventful season. ”

Mother Qin took the letter, put it aside, and muttered a few more words.

"Madam, I heard that Feng Lao'an has sent the steward of the outer courtyard to negotiate with Zuo County Commander about opening a warehouse and releasing grain, but Zuo County Commander has no will from above, and with his timid and fearful nature, I am afraid that this granary will not be opened. And the Zuo County Commander is busy dealing with the bandits on the Tiger Wolf Mountain in the government these days, and the steward has been there three times, but he has not been able to see the Zuo County Order. ”

"I am afraid that it is more difficult than ascending to the sky to let the county order who picks the door open a warehouse and release grain! And this opening of the warehouse to release grain, it is not up to him to call the shots, he has to report to Liu Sicang, so that he has the right to let people open the warehouse and release grain, but he may not be willing to hand over this matter?" When Liang saw that the ink was dry, he folded the letter, stuffed it into the envelope next to it, and sealed it with fire paint.

"In officialdom, there are men to deal with it. The backyard is our woman's world, and now the house is busy with these trivial matters, I'm afraid I can't take care of the Cai family, Mother Qin, you send someone over to take a look, ask her a few words, and make her admit to poisoning my decoction! Liang had already turned around and instructed Mother Qin.

After Qin's mother left, the Liang family was served by the little maid and went to the hall where the Lin family was.

In the early morning of the next day, before Gu Yutang woke up, Jiang Zhiming ordered the stone to send a lot of things over, piled them up at the door of the east wing, like a hill, and the number of things to see seemed to be more than what Jiang Zhiming asked Song Yi to send a few days ago.

Da Han was holding a broom in his hand and was talking to the stone, while Ah Hua was hiding behind Da Han and secretly looking at the stone opposite.

"Miss Dahan, these things are some small toys that my son-in-law asked people to collect, they are all exquisitely made, my son-in-law thinks that your girl should like it, so he let us send them over!" As the stone spoke, his eyes had moved from Da Han's body to Ah Hua's.

He glanced at Ah Hua's increasingly thick waist, like a bucket, and laughed out loud, "Miss Ah Hua, are you on par with Miss Li of Li Tiehu's family?" I heard that Miss Li fell to the ground yesterday, and she didn't get up for a long time, so she called five or six little girls to come over, and barely helped Miss Li up. ”

Hearing this, Ah Hua walked out from behind Da Han and glared at Shi viciously, Shi Shi, this stinky boy, why is his mouth still so ugly, and the dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth!

What's wrong with her growing strong? What's wrong with eating too much? In terms of strength, I'm afraid that the three men can't compare to her, so even if her own girl is in danger, she can come to a hero to save the beauty!

Shi Shi looked at Ah Hua and stared at her deadly, so he said the aftermath of Li Jiaojiao's fall, "Miss Ah Hua, the girl of the Li family only injured her ankle when she fell yesterday, and she almost had a comminuted fracture, and she couldn't get up again." If Miss Ahua continues to develop like this, I am afraid that she will still be half a pound or two with the girl of the Li family. ”

When Ah Hua heard this, he took three steps and made two steps to the side of the stone, still glaring at him viciously, if her eyes could kill, she would have cut the stinky boy of the stone into pieces a long time ago, who would continue to talk nonsense to him?

"Brother Shi, your son-in-law's things have been delivered, you can go! Slow down and don't send! ”

"Who asked you to send it? Isn't the Big Han girl here? Just have her send me there! The stone deliberately stimulated Ah Hua, so he moved Da Han out as a gunman, posing as if since you didn't send it, someone else would send it to me.

When Da Han heard this, he glanced at the two of them, and sighed in his heart, sandwiched in front of their happy enemies, it was really difficult to be a man! Hurriedly grabbed the broom in his hand, planning to find a chance to slip away, and said, "Sister Ahua, the girl hasn't woken up yet, I'll go to the house to see the girl, you guys talk first." ”

Before Ah Hua could react, Da Han had already slipped in with the broom in his hand, and Ah Hua and Shi were still standing in place with wide eyes and staring at each other, looking like they had to make the other party admit defeat.

Gu Yutang crooked on the soft couch, opened the window and took a look, and saw that Ah Hua and Shi were still standing outside stiffly, with a smile on their faces, and closed the window. Ah Hua and Shi are really happy with each other, and when she is older in the future, she can decide Ah Hua's marriage, so she will handle the marriage of the two of them.

Gu Yutang took a copy of the Three Heroes and Five Righteousness from the bookcase, asked the maid to make new tea, and brought the refreshments in, she leaned on the soft couch and read the book, the sunlight outside penetrated the Western glass outside, refracted into the room, and sprinkled on the ground in front of Gu Yutang.

Gu Yutang hadn't read the book for long, Da Han held a plate of refreshments, staggered in, and before he had time to take a few breaths, Da Han stammered: "Girl, the third son of the Fan family is here, saying that he is passing by Pengpu, knowing that the girl is living in the second room these days, and wants to come in to see the girl, the person is now in the front hall, and the old lady Feng and the old lady are talking with him." ”

Da Han was a little excited, causing him to stutter a little, Gu Yutang didn't hear clearly which third son of the Fan family was for a while, and asked, "Where did the third son of the Fan family come from?" What did he come to see me do? ”

Da Han took a cup of tea, drank it with a grunt, and then calmed down and said eagerly: "Girl, it is the third son of the Jinping Fan family, who originally had a baby kiss with you, I heard that he was born extremely good-looking, and the maids in the house all squeezed into the front hall to see." Girl, hurry up and take a look. ”

After a while, Gu Yutang said 'oh', it turned out to be the third son of the Jinping Fan family, she hadn't seen him a few times in her previous life, and she didn't have much communication, how could she come to the door to bother her in this life, since she had already withdrawn from the marriage, what did she do when she came to bother her?
