Chapter 040 turned over the wrong wall

In the early spring of March, the hillside outside the capital was covered with a little bit of tender green, and Wang Qifang took the children to the Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city.

"Second young grandmother, these are the seeds that the small ones exchanged with nearby farmers, you see"

Chen Dongsheng was wearing an indigo-colored lapel robe, an apricot yellow sweat scarf tied around his waist, a pair of half-worn black leather boots on his feet, and a bamboo basket in his hand, which was filled with many colorful cloth bags.

"Oh, what seeds are they? But what are the common ones in our neighborhood? ”

Wang Qifang asked Zizhu to take the basket, and reached out and touched a bag casually, the cloth pocket was the size of a palm, and the seal was tied with a rope. She pulled the drawstring and poured out a handful of seeds from the cloth bag, but Wang Qifang had never seen this kind of seed, so she asked curiously.

"Back to the second young grandmother, this," Chen Dongsheng stretched his neck to look, then scratched his hair, and smirked: "I don't know this little one...... The little one just thought that when he was in Qingzhou, the second young grandmother especially liked to exchange those novel crops, and it just so happened that we also had a greenhouse on the Zhuangzi, and the small, small one pondered——"

It is said that since Chen Dongsheng was sent by Wang Qifang to take care of the women's army, Chen Dongsheng finally found a serious errand, and he did it very carefully, lest he live up to the weight of the second young grandmother, and he was even more worried about missing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

You know, now is no more than a year ago, and the capital is not Qingzhou. When she was in Qingzhou last year, Wang Qifang was in distress in the countryside, and there was only Chen Dongsheng by his side, a small guy who could run errands, and he was naturally the first proud person in front of the second young grandmother; Now, with the increase of Wang Qifang's industry, there are more and more capable people in her hands, especially the two special milk brothers who are in charge, which makes Chen Dongsheng's sense of crisis more and more serious.

Chen Dongsheng is a far-sighted and open-minded person, otherwise he would not have dared to put the livelihood of the whole family and his future on her when Wang Qifang was trapped in Qingzhou. When he followed Wang Qifang to the capital, he watched with his own eyes how the master disposed of Diao slaves, how he ran his own dowry shop, and how he befriended noblewomen, step by step, and finally transformed from an abandoned woman framed by a concubine to a housewife who advanced and retreated to a degree.

This kind of transformation made Chen Dongsheng extremely glad for his choice, and sometimes he even regretted that he shouldn't have left his sister in Qingzhou, if his sister had followed the second young grandmother into Beijing, there would probably not be the scenery of the two girls Zizhu and Ziyuan, right? You know, their brother and sister follow the second young grandmother for no less time than those two girls.

It's a pity that although he made the right choice, the timing was always bad. Since he entered Beijing, he has not been given a serious errand, and can only mix up some idle errands in the outer courtyard of the Zhao family.

Of course, this can't be blamed on others, although Chen Dongsheng has a flexible mind, but after all, he is a peasant boy with limited knowledge, who is not capable of being a shopkeeper and a bookkeeper, and is unwilling to lower his status as a partner, as for the matter of the farm, there is Zhao Dalang, the grandmother of the second young grandmother, and there is nothing to do with him.

It's easy to wait for the errand of placing the women's army, and Chen Dongsheng has to work hard to do it beautifully.

The next facts proved that Chen Dongsheng did a good job, but there is one point, the women's army is not sick all the time, no matter how seriously injured they are, they will recover one day, and they will leave the Grange after they recover from their injuries, and his errand is also completed.

Now seeing that those seriously injured patients are getting better day by day, Chen Dongsheng began to think about how to fight for the next job.

Go back to the house and continue to run errands? How's that going to work? These days, although Chen Dongsheng only has a few subordinates in his hands, he is also a steward in size, he has little power, and he can be regarded as a superior little leader, those nearby farmers, the subordinates of the farm, and the merchants who deliver goods to the farm, which one disrespectfully calls him 'Steward Chen' and 'Brother Chen'?

has had this kind of high sense of superiority, as well as the real 'benefits', Chen Dongsheng said that he would not be beaten back to his original form as a small servant.

It's just that he is a kid with no special skills and is illiterate, what should he do to make the second young grandmother think of him, the 'Qingzhou veteran', and then entrust him with important tasks?

After thinking about it for a long time, one day Chen Dongsheng passed by Zhuangzi's glass conservatory, and when he saw the only Bodhi tree in it through the transparent glass, he suddenly thought of a way, that is-

"Well, yes, I did exchange a lot of rare plants at that time," Wang Qifang twisted the full seeds, and when Chen Dongsheng said this, she couldn't help but think of the days in Qingzhou, "By the way, are these seeds a trial?" ”

"Back to the second young grandmother, I thought about how rare the glass greenhouse was, how could I try to grow it casually?" Chen Dongsheng had been paying attention to Wang Qifang's reaction, and after seeing a brief loss of consciousness on her face, he knew that he had successfully provoked some memories of the second young grandmother, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "But I thought that if these seeds are not planted, I don't know what they are, in case they are deceived by those Diao people, they will lose their money in vain...... The small ones tried to sprinkle some seeds in the corners of the greenhouse, and after more than a month of growth, some of them really sprouted, and the small ones let the familiar old farmers see that there were a lot of good flowers and grasses in them. ”

"Oh? Already sprouted? During this time, she was busy with the affairs of the theater, and she didn't care about collecting fresh flowers and trees, so she only asked Zijuan to help pick out some orchids and peonies in the flower market and put them into the space to maintain the normal aura of the space.

Now she suddenly knew that Chen Dongsheng silently helped her collect a lot of fresh crops, which really surprised Wang Qifang, and she hurriedly stood up, and asked Chen Dongsheng to lead the way, and a group of people went to the glass greenhouse of the grange.

"Look, that's it," Chen Dongsheng pointed to the little bit of green in the corner and smiled heartily.

"Very good," Wang Qifang squatted down and looked at it carefully, then nodded with satisfaction, "Chen Dongsheng, you did a good job." It cost a lot of copper plates to buy these seeds, and I'll go to Zizhu for reimbursement later. ”

As she spoke, Wang Qifang stood up and patted the dust on her hands, and looked around at the empty conservatory, "In addition, this conservatory has been empty since it was built, which is a bit wasteful." Now that you've got these seeds, let's fill the greenhouse...... Such a large room, with only one tree, is too empty. ”

"Oh, little obedience"

Oops, there's finally a new errand, although it's just a little bit of vegetable growing work, but it's also the second young grandmother's own order. Chen Dongsheng saw that half of his goal had been achieved, and his mood suddenly improved. He followed Wang Qifang's gaze and kept rolling his two big eyes, and when his eyes stayed on the Bodhi tree specially transplanted from Ling County, Chen Dongsheng suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "By the way, I don't know if the second young grandmother has heard about it, and the Zhao family has something new again."

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

Wang Qifang has been so busy lately that she can't even take care of space matters, where can she still have the leisure to inquire about the Zhao family's? Especially at the beginning of this month, Zheng Sanniang married into the Zhao family and moved into her peony garden, and her last trace of nostalgia for the Zhao family was also wiped out, and she didn't want to listen to the grievances and grievances of the Zhao family.

As for the personal maids and guards around her, they are all busy with their own duties, and they don't have much time to pay attention to those gossip.

And the only little girl who has ever returned to Zhao's mansion is worried that her mother will be unhappy, even if the Zhao family sees or hears something, as long as it has nothing to do with their mother and son, she will not take the initiative to mention it to her mother.

Therefore, what happened in the Zhao family's compound, Wang Qifang really didn't know.

"Hehe, there is a gardener living in the village west of our Zhuangzi, an ancestral craft. I heard that a few days ago, I took over a big job, saying that I was invited by a nobleman in Beijing to treat flowers and trees," Chen Dongsheng followed behind Wang Qifang step by step, and said with a bit of schadenfreude: "Do you know who the nobleman in Beijing is?" ”

"Who? Could it be Mrs. Zhao? ”

Wang Qifang saw that Chen Dongsheng had been looking at the Bodhi tree, and her heart moved, as if she had thought of something, and guessed.

"Back to the second young grandmother, exactly. And I heard the gardener come back and say that Mrs. Zhao sent someone to invite him to save the Bodhi tree you gave her back then. Speaking of this, Chen Dongsheng's tone was obviously a little excited, "Second young grandmother, it's not strange that you said it's strange, when you were in the Zhao family, the Bodhi tree was flowering and bearing fruit, how prosperous it was." When you leave the Zhao family with your front foot, the tree will go wrong right after. ”

Heh~ What's so strange about this? Wang Qifang smiled secretly in her heart, when she was in the Zhao Mansion, she often used the hot spring water in the space to water the Bodhi tree, so that the tree would take root in the capital that was not suitable for growth; And now that she has left the Zhao family, she can't cheat with space, and the Bodhi tree will definitely return to normal without the protection of hot spring water, and grow in full accordance with the laws of nature.

“…… Second young grandmother, don't you know, many people in Beijing know about it, everyone whispered that the second young grandmother is a person with a big Buddha fate, and the Bodhi tree will blossom and bear fruit in the Zhao family because of you. Now, you have left the Zhao family, and the Zhao family has married a mourning star to enter the door, which has angered the sacred tree of Buddhism...... This is the Bodhi tree giving the Zhao family a warning......"

"Oh, and that?"

When Wang Qifang heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle. Hehe, it's really ten years in Hedong and Hexi, I think she Wang Qifang was also infamous as a 'brother who is a mother', it's only been a few years, and the niece of the person who slandered her is also called 'Mourning Star'. Hmm, is that retribution?

After a day of playing in Zhuangzi, Wang Qifang returned to the capital with the children at dusk.

In the evening, as the night deepened, the door of Ping'an Fang slowly closed, and there was a curfew outside.

"Puff"

Wang Qifang came back from dinner at her brother's house in the East Courtyard, and as soon as she asked her subordinates to send Yuan Niang back to the courtyard, she heard a slight sound coming from the place against the wall.

"Who? Who's where? ”

Wang Qifang relied on the breeze and rain behind her, and boldly came to the garden on the east side, and in the moonlight, she saw a black shadow in the flowers at the root of the wall.

“…… Damn, I climbed over the wrong wall, how did I get to 'her' house? ”

At the base of the wall, the black shadow pressed the wound on the shoulder, and watched with a wry smile as several women came over......

P: Eh, update Late Bird, sorry sorry
