Chapter 321: Tossing and turning

Chunying took a breath of cold air, hurriedly put her fingers in her mouth, and when she looked closely, the eye of the needle on her head oozed blood beads again, stinging for a while. She had no choice but to climb to the edge of the kang, took out the Jinchuang medicine powder from the small drawer of the kang table, and applied it a little.

After she crossed over, she has been a female celebrity for seven or eight years. As a girl, one of the main daily tasks is to do all kinds of needlework, at least three years have not made the mistake of stabbing the hand, what is going on today?

She was a little apprehensive, remembering the plots that often appear in TV dramas, at this time, most of the people close to her have changed, is it ...... Who had the accident? She hurriedly climbed off the kang and ran out of the door to ask, "Mother, where is Dad going today?!" ”

Mother Lu stuck her head out of the window of the room: "Didn't you say it when you went out in the morning?" He went to inquire if the government had any plans to sell the shop and real estate of the criminal official's family recently. "

So, most of them are in the yamen? The second uncle got acquainted with the officials of Shuntian Mansion, and his father also had a few drinks with them. When something happens, they will generally take care of it, and there will be no major problems, so to speak, not the father.

's mother is at home, my sister-in-law's family is also at home, and my second uncle's family is in the eldest young master's mansion, which can be said to be a high authority. I don't think it's going to be a hassle. Chunying couldn't help but suspect Hu Fei.

In addition to her blood family, the closest person she is to in this world is Hu Fei, could it be that he encountered some accident?

As soon as this thought arose, it was entangled in her mind, making her uneasy, and she began to imagine the danger that Hu Fei would encounter, whether he encountered a storm at sea, or was he hunted down and killed in a conflict with the princes of the princely states of India?

The latter is okay, although it is a little dangerous, but there are so many people in their mission, it stands to reason that there should be military attaches and soldiers to escort them, and now China's reputation is still quite loud in the world. It's okay, people don't do too much. If you encounter a brain-dead prince, just run away. She still remembers watching several Indian costume movies in the past, judging from the content of the films, the area of the princely states is large and small, most of them are not large, and the princes of the various states are not of the same mind, as long as they flee to another princely state, it is possible to get out of the crisis.

But if it encounters the former, it is impossible for human beings to resist. If you are unlucky, you are afraid that everyone will be wiped out, right?

Chunying shuddered, and began to feel that this possibility was quite high. At the beginning, Hu Fei said that they were expected to come back within three years, because the current reigning emperor would be 30 years old in three years, and he would be in power for 10 years. The mission to the West has achieved results, which is a congratulatory gift to the emperor on his birthday, and it can also allow the emperor to show off his martial arts. Now, they set out in the early spring of last year, and it has been more than a year now, and they must have arrived in India, according to the plan, which is to walk around India, to several countries, and talk about opening up trade routes. If things had gone a little smoother and faster, they might have gone back by now. Did they really run into a storm?!

The more Chunying thought about it, the more uneasy she became, she didn't sit or stand, she walked a few steps back and forth, and her heart was irritable, why didn't there be anything like a phone or mobile phone in ancient times? Even if it's a telegram! Now, even if she wanted to communicate with Hu Fei, she couldn't send it!

Chunying threw herself on the quilt, her mind was messy, she turned over in annoyance, touched the needle basket, and was pricked by the needles on the needle bag, and the pain made her quickly bounce up, only to realize that she was actually asking for trouble.

There was no news that Hu Fei must have had an accident, she just guessed that the mission might have embarked on the return journey. What is the truth, she doesn't know anything at all, since there are three years, India is big, why is she in such a hurry if she has nothing to do? In business negotiations, friction is indispensable in order to obtain the greatest benefits, and most of the missions are still in India, right?

In fact, she would prick her hand when doing needlework, because she was absent-minded, right? It's ridiculous to scare yourself with the plot of a TV series! What the hell is she doing?! Because she successfully got out of the country, her family situation is getting better and better, and she has no worries, so she began to make trouble for herself? It seems that people really can't be too idle!

Hu Fei is not a reckless person, he knows what he should do, not to mention, in the season of frequent storms, a boatman with a little experience will not agree to go to sea, the boatman who can take on the task of driving a treasure ship must be an experienced and familiar with ocean sailing, so he naturally knows better what kind of arrangement is the safest. What's more, there is also a prince in the mission! Even if they don't care about their own lives in order to complete the emperor's task, do they even care about the life of the prince?

Chunying gradually calmed down and began to wonder if she should find something for herself to do, not to nest in the room all day embroidering and making clothes, so as not to think nonsense.

There was a knock at the front door, and Mother Lu raised her voice and asked, "Who is it?" But the people outside did not answer, but continued to knock on the door.

Chunying was puzzled, if it was a neighbor, she should be able to respond, so she went out and opened the door.

Outside the door was a short man wearing a hat, a straight jacket of gray-blue muslin, a silk silk tie around his waist, and a valuable jade pendant hanging from his head. He was slightly hunched over, his hands were tied in his sleeves, his facial features were covered by a hat, he couldn't see what he looked like, only a chin was exposed, and his complexion could be seen to be extremely white.

He asked in a strange voice, "But the second girl Lu, whose name is Chunying?" ”

Chun Ying looked at him in confusion, thinking that this person's voice seemed to be a little girly, and looking at this style, why did he look so much like a legendary eunuch? The thought was swirling in her mind as she spoke, "I don't know what the noble driver is doing? ”

He pulled out his right hand from his sleeve and handed over a letter, and as soon as Chunying took it, he turned around and left, extremely fast, and as soon as Chunying reacted and wanted to stop him, he had already lost it.

Chunying was a little stunned, was this person really walking so fast, or did she encounter the legendary light skill? Looking down at the letter, there was no word written on the envelope, but it was made of fine white paper, and when I returned to the courtyard, I closed the door and opened the letter to look at it carefully. only to find that there was only one line written on it, "There are changes in Jiangnan, be careful of the fields." ”

The first half of the sentence is easy to say, referring to the changes that happened in Jiangnan, but what does the second half of the sentence mean? Be careful with the fields? Why be careful? What happened to Tian Zan? Even if something happens to Jiangnan, what does it have to do with her? Her family did not buy property in Jiangnan.

Slow down...... Chun Ying suddenly remembered the properties that Hu Fei had placed, and she remembered that there was a grange among them, but at that time, she only cared about talking to Hu Fei, and she didn't look at the address carefully, and she couldn't remember what the specific location was.

Chunying hurriedly turned around and went back to the room, and Lu's mother came over and asked, "What's wrong?" Who's coming? She only hurriedly replied, "It's nothing, it's for me." ”

"Sending a message? Whose letter? ”

Chunying didn't bother to answer, so she ran back to the room first, closed the door with her hands, and then ran to the side of the kang, hugged the mirror box, pulled out the bottom drawer, and touched it with her hand, and the bottom plate of the drawer slid open. Reveal a thin mezzanine.

Before entering Dongfu, she went to the two towns of Qingrundian and Majuqiao to find carpenters to make them respectively, and then took them home and assembled them herself, which was specially used to put important documents, and the deeds that Hu Fei handed him were all collected here.

After flipping through it, Chunying found the title deed of the grange, and the address above was written in the east of Liantang Town, Changshu County, Suzhou Prefecture, with a total of 200 acres of land, of which 50 acres were high-grade paddy fields, 110 acres of middle fields, and 40 acres were dry land. Changshu is naturally Jiangnan. It's just that what's wrong with these fields?

She looked back and forth at the letter and then at the envelope, when she suddenly heard a "click" and something fell out of the envelope. She hurriedly picked it up, but it was an old tassel, twisted and broken, and only a knot and tassel remained, why was the color and style of this knot so familiar......

Isn't this the spike she kissed when she was doing business with Hu Fei in the past?! She still remembered that this one couldn't be sold for a long time because of the bad color of the silk thread used, so Hu Fei simply stayed and made it himself. She also added silk rope and jade hooks to him. It's made into a waist rope. Why did the person who sent the letter have this thing? She thought that Hu Fei had already thrown it away.

Slow down...... Chun Ying thought back to the appearance of the messenger just now, as well as the voice, the skin, she couldn't help but suspect that her original guess was right, that person was really a eunuch, if so, then it must be the person sent by the eunuch Hu Nei in the palace. Did he know anything inside the palace and specially wrote a warning letter?

Chun Ying thought of Fang Cai's own worries because of the acupuncture again, and the uneasiness in her heart rose again, could it be that her thoughts just now were not asking for trouble, Hu Fei really had an accident?

No, if Hu Fei had an accident, why did Hu Neijian mention the fields in Jiangnan? It should have nothing to do with Hu Fei himself! It's just that his land in Jiangnan is in trouble!

Chunying read the letter carefully a few more times, and then looked at the spike, and made up her mind, although she didn't know if the speculation was correct, but she should always figure things out. If it is true that Hu Fei's industry in Jiangnan has a problem, of course there is a way to solve it. That's their property in the future! You can't ask Hu Fei to come back to China after a lot of hard work, only to find that he has become a poor egg.

She really wanted to ask Hu Neijian what was going on in Jiangnan, but she didn't know where to find him, and since he sent someone to deliver the letter, he didn't mention his name, so it was obvious that he didn't want people to know. She had to find another way to inquire.

Chunying remembered Hu Fei's house in Qingrundian, there was a house and a servant, she could go and ask, presumably the people in his family would know a little news.

Thinking so, she immediately began to pack her things, then ran to the main house, and said to her mother, "Mother, I want to go to Qingrun Store and let Uncle Tao send me there, but I don't know if I can rush back to the city at night, so I want to ask you, can my father sell the house in Lijiazhuang?" ”

Mother Lu hurriedly said, "What are you going to do there?" You're a girl, what's going on? Even if you have a potterhouse with you, it's not good. If you have something to do, your father will do it, otherwise it will be good to find your brother-in-law, you will stay at home obediently for me, like a young lady. ”

Chunying snorted, "I'm not really Miss Qianjin, what kind of shelf are you pretending?" I'm going to have serious business......" paused, and didn't want to tell his mother that Hu Fei's property was in his hands, and he didn't know how to explain it. Gritted his teeth and said, "That's it, when my father comes back, I'll tell him myself!" I had to keep my temper down and wait patiently for my father to come home.

Lu Yougui came back before noon, and as soon as he entered the door, he stretched his face and clearly told others that he was very unhappy.

Chunying had to let go of her thoughts first and asked him, "What's wrong with Dad?" Who annoyed you? ”

"Don't mention it!" Lu Yougui said with a dark face, "I went to the Yamen today to inquire about things, and I also went to inquire when I met a few people, all of whom I knew when I was on an errand in the Hou Mansion in the past, and they were the sons of other families. Knowing that I inquired about myself, some people congratulated me, some people said cool words, there was one of the most disgusting deflated three, and he actually said, I just left the house and had money to buy a shop to do business, don't be greedy in the house, right? I defended myself, he smiled and agreed, and then I invited Xing Zhutou to eat in a nearby restaurant, and I actually heard him shouting to others, saying that I was the most greedy for money, the biggest appetite, and the blackest means! If it weren't for someone else stopping me, I would have been eager to punch it over! ”

Chun Ying was surprised, "He actually said that?!" Who heard that?! ”

Lu Yougui was stunned, and then he reacted, and his face became even darker.
