Wild boars, hares, and robes! Jiang Shi smiled when he saw it, and his heart said that he had these things, and he would definitely have a lot of face when he had a treat during the New Year. Before her smile could reach the maximum, she listened to Gu Yao and Jin Baihu's words: "Hard sister-in-law." I only have to bother my sister-in-law to divide these into thirty parts. ”

The maiden family of the Jin Baihu family is a butcher, and it is not a problem to break down this meat. This is also the reason why Gu Yao asked her to buy game, but she could find it all in one night - the Jin family has the largest meat resources in Tieling.

When Jiang heard this, he said unhappily: "Divide it into thirty portions, do you want to eat one serving a day?" If you don't care so much, whatever you want to eat one day, you just put it aside to eat. ”

The hands of the Jin Baihu family who led people to collect things stiffened, and looked at Gu Yao, Gu Yaoyin said: "Mother, these are the New Year's goods of the craftsmen of the ordnance battalion. Have you forgotten? This year's meat in the family is in charge of Uncle Eleven. ”

The Jiang family made a joke, and his face was unnatural, so he explained for himself: "The Meng family doesn't know what to do in Yunnan, how can they be embarrassed to ask him to break the bank?" ”

Gu Yao motioned for nearly 100 households to continue, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, I will directly hand over all the proceeds of Shuntianfu Xiangsi to Sister Yao." She used the proceeds to ensure Grandmother Meng's expenses. Now that Shuntianfu is a Jingshi, the business of the restaurant is only better, and Grandmother Meng will definitely be able to have a good year. ”

When Jiang heard this, he almost vomited blood.

How popular Homesickness Inn is, it's not that she doesn't know! A few years ago, it was already a famous restaurant in the light market, but now I don't know how popular it will be! Such a big income was all given to Yunnan, what should her grandchildren do?

At this time, there were no outsiders, so the Jiang family did not hide it, and said directly: "I am a moneyless person, you should save some money to live." ”

Gu Yao said: "Mother, don't worry, except for Yunnan, I don't have anything to spend money on." ”

It's the truth.

When he went north, Zheng Zhi brought everyone over. Now that they are placed everywhere, there are only a dozen or so people left who are unwilling to enter the camp, and they are still working as secret guards. The expenses of those dozen or so people are enough to support them with the income of Tieling alone.

Jiang didn't mean that, but she finally thought that she had a good relationship with Mrs. Meng, and she didn't say anything that she couldn't give Yunnan so much money. Immediately, Jiang was glad that he didn't need to say that.

She received a letter from Yunnan, which was sent by Mrs. Meng on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Meng family was in Yunnan, and received all kinds of rituals arranged by Yao Feifei, and the Tang family's doctor who studied Yunnan miasma in the past saved the lives of the twelve young masters of the Meng family and Meng Xuan's nephew. Dr. Tang only cares about saving people, regardless of medicinal materials. The Meng family ran out of furniture and saved their grandson, and when they saw that the Mid-Autumn Festival could not be celebrated, Yao Feifei sent food and silver money to solve the crisis of the Meng family.

At this time, Yao Feifei's caravan sent a large amount of grain and medicinal materials. These things are said to be in Yunnan, even in the capital, and they are no less than five thousand taels, and Mrs. Meng is embarrassed to accept them.

The shopkeeper in charge of escorting Yao saw her hesitation, smiled shyly, and couldn't see that he was an out-and-out businessman, a businessman who was good at running away from afar, and said, "Old lady, take it." My master said that Shuntian Mansion is now the capital, and Mrs. Zheng San has earned a lot of silver. My master opened the Yunnan trade route again, and this time he confiscated the freight and folded all the silver into items and sent it. ”

As soon as Mrs. Meng heard this, she didn't thank Gu Yao first, but only aimed at Yao Feifei, and immediately said, "This can't be done!" I'll settle the freight. ”

Shopkeeper Yao smiled: "The old lady can't help it!" My master sent you something, relying on the connections of the old Meng family and the Gu family, and this opened up the business road. If we want to give money, we should pay it. It's just that my master said that she and Mrs. Zheng San were good friends, so he didn't give it. ”

It sounds like Yao Feifei has taken the advantage, but how can Mrs. Meng believe it? After thinking about it, she glanced at her eldest son. Meng Ying understood, and immediately said: "If I remember correctly, Yao's shopkeeper is recovering Yunnan herbs." I've been in Yunnan for a year, and I've been lucky enough to make friends with a few local people, one of whom is the second master of the Bai family. If Shopkeeper Yao still collects the medicine, I will go with you. ”

Shopkeeper Yao couldn't ask for it, so he didn't shirk it, and said, "I'm tired of Master Meng." ”

In the end, with the help of Meng Ying, the shopkeeper Yao returned with a full load and sent a dividend of 3,000 taels the next year, which is a later story, not to mention for the time being.

Mrs. Meng allocated the chewing head for the coming year, and deliberately left an extra one for the eldest son, Mrs. Meng Qi was puzzled, because she asked: "Why do you give her more family?" ”

"We're just getting the rain out of the people. These people in the family, except for the eleventh child, Gu Wu's child is familiar with the long house. I think if she was here, I would not want to see the long house have a bad time. ”

There are many people in the long house, and under the control of Mrs. Meng, although they are also working hard, the income is really small. Because, everyone knows that Changfang is the culprit, and the rest of the Meng family is implicated. At this time, looking at the things that were enough for the family to eat for a year, Mrs. Meng held back her tears and said with a smile: "If I insisted on recognizing that child as a righteous daughter, how good it would be!" ”

Meng Hui, who had a beard all over his cheeks, sighed when he heard this: "That's impossible." Father doesn't like Sister Gu, Sister Gu, and he doesn't like Father even more. ”

Mrs. Meng hadn't heard her son mention Meng Xian for a long time. Meng Xian, no matter how cheerful he was, as long as he mentioned it, all the good moods of the eldest lady could disappear. At this moment, it was no exception, Mrs. Meng immediately said indifferently: "Okay, take the things, I'm going to thank your grandmother." ”

Mrs. Meng is partial to the long house, and in the eyes of others, it is the demeanor of the grandmother. At the head of the Meng family, the most implicated is the Changfang, how can the Changfang be unpopular even if he can ignore the previous suspicions? Meng Ying, under such circumstances, has become the core of the new generation of the Meng family.

In the capital, after Emperor Yongle reused Zheng Zhi's thoughts, he invited Ji Gang to ask, and after learning that Gu Yao had contributed all his dowry to the Meng family, his mind moved slightly, and he asked Ji Gang: "Gu Wu only returned to the Meng family like this because of Meng Shan's adoption?" Is this the only one, or does she treat others like this all the time? ”

How has it been? Ji Gang was slightly flustered, and talked about several things that Gu Yao had done since he entered Shuntian, including the matter of Ruan Jiazhuang, including Gu Yao's refusal to add makeup to Mrs. Lu. Emperor Yongle said: "In this way, if she treats a certain person well, she doesn't care about paying?" ”

Ji Gang thought about it, really, and said: "Although Zheng Sanye did it secretly, what they pulled to Tieling back then was not only grain, but also sulfur and all kinds of iron. They bought scrap metal, melted it down and redid it. In other words, they began to make firearms for a long time. ”

Emperor Yongle glanced at him and said coldly, "What do you want to say?" Those wastes of the Ordnance Bureau, which can't be made by spending so much silver every year, the Zheng family paid for them out of their own pockets, and I still have to punish them? ”

Ji Gang sensed that he had made up his mind and immediately shut up.

On the fifteenth day of the first month of the nineteenth year of Yongle, the holy decree arrived in Tieling.
