In fact, Xia Zhu just pretended to be confused on the surface, and she saw it very thoroughly, and she was so clever that she had already planned it in her heart.

She said: "The eldest and third children know how to manage and settle accounts, and so many fields are well managed. The second child always wants to become a businessman and make more money, she can maintain a good relationship between shops and tenants, but she is not good at taking care of the farmland. The fourth child is doing well in the barracks, and the boy doesn't need to leave too much for him. As for Little Dreams......"

Me: "Last night, she took the lead in driving Zhaoyou away, right?" ”

Xia Zhu: "Yes, she just followed me and asked me to guard against you, but how can you be a bad guy?" The world will be yours. ”

I was affectionate and coquettish: "Oh, stop praising me, I'm blushing." ”

Yesterday, Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Brother revealed that Xia Zhu had a "treasure" when they knew that someone was eavesdropping, and then Xia Daxue and Xia Meng really went to the old lady's house to make trouble. Xia Daxue didn't know if she knew about it, but Xia Meng obviously had a problem.

In Xia Zhu's opinion, if she really wants to divide the family, Xia Meng will get the least, not only because she is young, but also because she doesn't know how to farm, and she can't settle accounts and manage tenants.

I filtered through the things about these children and decided to start with Xia Shufeng first.

Xia Zhu seems to have a stiff relationship with her, and actually wants to support her. But doing business requires expanding shops and changing the type of crops grown, which reduces the amount of food produced.

A bucket of rice can be sold for 50 wen, and if you change to sorghum, a few jars of sorghum wine will make a net profit of 100 wen. Or planting cotton and raising mulberry, the money earned is much higher than that of growing rice. However, if rice is not grown, the total grain output will be reduced, the price of rice will rise, and many people will not have enough to eat and will not be able to work.

I asked, "If I can convince Xia Shufeng, or find other ways, will the conflict between the eldest and the third child and her be alleviated?" ”

Xia Zhu patted my hand and smiled with wrinkles on his face: "I believe in you, how you arrange it is right." ”

Mrs. Xia was so good to me, no matter what I said, she supported me.

She took my hand and whispered, "In a few days, when my body is refreshed, I will take you to see it." You'll be amazed! It's a huge place, and it takes you a long time to walk! ”

She was referring to the granary.

I was intrigued by her, and nodded in anticipation.

……

Xia Shufeng's life is indeed exquisite.

Her house is halfway up the mountainside, built with two floors, and there are dozens of wings alone, and the scale is not as small as Xia Zhu's main house. There are even gardens and fish ponds in the Zhuangzi, and the attendants are also busy, watering the flowers, sweeping the floor, wiping the dust, and standing guard at the corner to spread the word. This specification is comparable to that of an official's house.

I was waiting in the lobby, but after a while, Butler Tong went back and forth, and wanted to take me directly to the gazebo to find her.

There are many kinds of flowers in the garden, peonies, peonies, camellias, osmanthus. Now that summer has arrived, these flowers are violet, colorful, and fragrant.

It's been a long time since I've seen a garden full of flowers.

"The doctor is here, please." Butler Tong showed me the way.

I followed him around the rockery, up the well-maintained stone steps, and into the pavilion.

The two sons were playing chess in the gazebo. One wears a blue shirt and the other wears a blue and ink gown. Both of them have black hair hanging down their waists, and they are slightly powdered, and their appearance is very different from those croppers in the field. And Xia Shufeng had kumquat cake and half-used bird's nest soup in his hand, sitting on the edge of the chess game, staring at the chessboard, thinking about it.
