Zhuo pondered and slowly picked up the tea bowl. took a sip: "Those are all powerful children, no matter how bold they are, they have measure, and the small people of Shengdou can't help them, so they dare to be so bold, but our family is like this...... They are in-laws to each other, and they don't dare to do too much when they think about it. ”

How could Chunying reassure her? Busy said: "Having said that, but...... Just a little slower when they got out of the way, they flicked the whip casually, if they didn't know someone, it could be said that they didn't know their identity, but in order to buy Zhuangzi before, his family obviously came to the door to find the slave's father and Zeng Steward, how could they not recognize it? If you recognize it, why do you need to move the whip for a trivial matter? The slave's father was only slightly injured, but he couldn't even get out of bed. The wife said that these young masters are measured, and the slaves and maids really don't look like them. These young brothers have been accustomed to living a prosperous life since they were children, and they happen to be young and vigorous......"

Seeing that Zhuo's expression gradually changed, Chun Ying hurriedly added a sentence to clear herself: "The slave didn't complain to his wife because his father was a little injured, but he was really scared." Thanks to his wife. The slave and maid also learned some of the housekeeper's fur, plus the people who had heard people talk about it in the West Mansion before, and knew a little bit about external affairs. The adults behind these brothers have never been all the way with the waiting master of Xifu, and besides, the matter of the previous master's accusation has nothing to do with their families, so they all have a grudge! The Daxing area is not a fertile land, and the neighboring villages are small, why do they prefer to buy Zhuangzi there? ”

Zhuo Shi put down the tea bowl and slowly wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief. The other girls in the room seemed to sense that the atmosphere was a little solemn, and knew that this was a matter of discussion, so they quietly withdrew.

Qingluan was one of Zhuo's cronies, but she didn't leave, she looked at Zhuo's family, and then at Chunying, laughed dryly, and said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence?" That Zhuangzi is dozens of miles away from the capital, although it is an industry under the name of our government, but the production is not abundant, and the owner does not live there, even if they have evil intentions, what can they do? ”

Chunying shook her head: "It's not what they want to do, it's ...... With them, the business of the village...... I'm afraid I can't hide it! ”

Zhuo immediately remembered. Although the "secret" transaction between Li Jiazhuang and Nanyuan is actually no longer a secret, it is against the law after all, and if her husband's political enemies know about it, it will be embarrassing enough to poke it out. If the emperor trusts her husband, this little thing can only be regarded as harmless, and she can also defile herself to win the emperor's trust, but the problem is that the emperor seems to be a little suspicious of her husband, and it is very bad for her husband to return to Beijing to wait for a new appointment!

She immediately decided: "This matter can't be delayed!" Hurry up and invite Aunt Xu to come! Qingluan immediately turned around and left. (Marshmallow) Chunying saw that only she and Zhuo were left in the house, so she spoke again: "Madam, even if you accept the sale, you will leave traces of spiders." However, there are many Zhuangzi near there who do this business, and there are also royal relatives of the clan. If it really comes out, most of these people are fine, and those with less confidence will be found out and questioned. Our family has Jingwangfu as Kao Mountain, and it can be regarded as a relative of the emperor. It should be fine, please don't worry too much. But...... Those sons and brothers are messing around, and they have already harassed the people, if no one stops them and makes a fuss, the emperor may be angry! I'm afraid that those people will not be willing to confess their sins and bite back. ”

On the surface, she was comforting Zhuo's family, but in fact, she made the danger a little more aggravated. After experiencing those two angel comings, how could Chunying not know that the emperor was suspicious of the male master of the East Mansion? Moreover, compared with the Hou Mansion, the East Mansion and King Jing's husband and wife are separated by another layer, and they can only be regarded as Princess Jing's maiden family, and they are still far from the emperor's relatives. The emperor is jealous of the second master, and may use this as an excuse to put the second master idle.

Looking at Zhuo's expression as if she was moved by what she said, Chun Ying wanted to give it a little more force, but the words came to her lips and swallowed again. You still have to pay attention to the heat in doing things, and if you talk too much, it may arouse the suspicion of the second wife, and when the time comes, not only will you fail to achieve your goal, but you will also get into trouble. Anyway, now she is almost certain that the Zhuo family will definitely order Li Jiazhuang to stop the secret transaction with Nanyuan, and the steward Zeng was injured again, and if he wants to turn light into darkness, he doesn't have the ability to do so. As soon as this matter was settled, he had no excuse to threaten his father. When the second master comes back, the second old lady and the second wife will be happy, and they should reward the whole house, and when the time comes, Brother-in-law Lu will come to ask for grace again, there is nothing that should not be.

Chun Ying thought about it for a while. had already calculated the next plan, so he quietly looked at Zhuo's expression and waited for her instructions.

Zhuo Shi has been silent, his eyes are uncertain, and there is a worry in his eyes.

After a while, Qingluan and Aunt Xu came back. The latter had just seen the ceremony, and Zhuo Shi ordered: "Isn't Daxing's Zhuangzi doing business with Nanyuan?" You go and tell Manager Xu that the urgent message is sent to them, and they are ordered to stop immediately! All the prey of birds and beasts should be cleaned up, and the shacks used for breeding should also be removed, so as not to leave a trace! This matter is very important, let Manager Xu send two Kao's family members to supervise it, the sooner the better! ”

Aunt Xu was surprised, but she hadn't paid attention to the two or three hundred taels of silver that year, so she responded very simply, and was about to do it, but was stopped by Zhuo's family: "Don't make too much noise, don't let the people in the village know, even the people in our own village ......" She paused, and then continued, "Even the people in our village are as little alarmed as possible." Wait for the things to be cleaned up. Just let out the rumors, let's simply sell this Zhuangzi! ”

Chunying was secretly taken aback by the side. She originally only planned to ask the second wife to issue an explicit order to stop the trading of Lijiazhuang and Nanyuan, but she didn't expect that the other party would simply sell Zhuangzi. Thinking of the simple and kind people in the village, she hesitated. There is a group of lawless gentlemen making trouble around there, if there is no Dongfu to do Kao Mountain, will they be bullied?

After lowering her head and thinking about it, Chun Ying said carefully: "Madam...... If you sell Zhuangzi...... The village has been doing this business for many years, and the tenants in the village know some clues, if they are coaxed to tell it......"

Zhuo's face stiffened: "I'm afraid if I don't sell it, I'm afraid if I sell it." It's better to sell it clean! What does it matter to a tenant? Can they still denounce us?! ”

Chun Ying saw that she seemed to be a little impatient, and hurriedly smiled: "It turns out that the slave maid thinks too much, forgetting that there is a difference between the government and the people, and ordinary people don't have that courage." It's just that the slave maid thinks about the new master in the neighboring village...... I'm afraid that they have the heart to calculate the old lady and coerce and lure those tenants to talk nonsense or something...... However, selling Zhuangzi is indeed much more worry-free, and it would be better if the buyer was someone who those sons and brothers did not dare to provoke. ”

Zhuo Shi smiled: "Where to find such a person?" If it is a good Zhuangzi, it is okay, but this Zhuangzi is all year round, except for japonica rice and mulberries, other productions are ordinary, where can those high-ranking families be seen? Is it sold to Xifu? Speaking of this, her heart moved, and she felt that this method was not bad. Lord Hou's holy family is much stronger than his husband, and he won't suffer a big loss because of this!

Chunying originally thought about the Hou Mansion, but she also thought that when the owner of the East Mansion was outside, the Hou Mansion sent someone to take care of the Zhuangzi in Daxing, and they didn't squeeze out any oil and water, and asked them to spend money to buy it, even if the cost was less, I was afraid that they would not be happy. So she said, "It's this mulberry that bears well!" Every year when it comes to the season of mulberries, the fruit sold in Beijing is only the best produced by our family and the other two, and I heard that the nobles in the palace eat the goods provided by the other two! When the slave heard about this, she was thinking, if it was good to have a relationship with the palace bureau, our Zhuangzi is dedicated to the mulberries used in the palace, how decent it should be? Although it is a dream, but this thing even loves to eat in the palace, those royal relatives and nobles, I want to come and have a good mouthful, I heard that our family sells Zhuangzi, I will definitely come to buy it! ”

Zhuo's heart moved, and he faintly had an idea. Aunt Xu next to her had already bent down and whispered in her ear: "Madam, when Gonggong Qiu sent someone to the house last time. I once mentioned that the mulberries sent by our house are good, and even the palace is not so fresh...... He and the Si Yuan Bureau palm seal eunuchs...... Seems to be familiar with each other......"

Zhuo Shi gave her a look, and said, "You go to deliver the message first, and ...... else Let's go back and talk about it! Aunt Xu responded, turned around and took a deep look at Chunying, and quickly left. Chunying narrowed her eyes and asked with a pretending puzzled look, "Madam...... Didn't you say you were going to sell Zhuangzi? Seeing that she didn't understand, Zhuo Shi smiled: "I'm going to sell, but this buyer...... Isn't it easier to sell if you find it first? Chunying pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "It's the slave who is confused." ”

After saying all the things that should be said, Chunying accompanied Zhuo Shi to chat for a while, and seeing that she was a little tired, she helped beat her shoulders and loosen her bones, and at the same time motioned for Qingluan to stand closer and see her own methods. After a while, Zhuo's family was comfortable, Qingluan also learned, and after rubbing it for a while, the former was quite satisfied: "I heard that you have this unique skill, but it is the first time to enjoy it." Why didn't you teach my girl earlier? It also allows me to be used sooner. ”

Chun Ying smiled: "It's also a coincidence that I remembered it today." Feng Ming and Qingluan are both good at waiting for people, and the slaves and maids don't dare to get axes. Look how fast Qingluan learns! Do better than slaves and maids, and slaves and maids will not be ugly. Qingluan glanced back at her.

Zhuo's family had just decided on a big event, and he was in a happy mood, and after listening to Chunying's words, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "You are too modest, my girl is a good hand, if you talk about serving people, you may not be as good as a few of you." It's been a while since you came out, and the old lady is afraid that she is looking for you, so go back quickly, persuade her to go to the old man's house, and I will ask someone to send a soothing soup at night. ”

Chunying responded, respectfully retreated, and on the way back to Songyi Temple, she had to endure the desire for the corners of her mouth to turn up.

A few days later, she heard the news from Qingluan that the second wife had sold Daxing's Zhuangzi. The buyer was not the Siyuan Bureau, but an internal supervisor surnamed Hu, and the internal supervisor Qiu acted as an intermediary. It is not known whether there was an agreement between Hu Neijian and the Siyuan Bureau. But what is certain is that this Gonggong Hu is the person who can be used in front of the emperor, and no matter how bastard those powerful children are, they will not dare to provoke him. And Chunying thought that Hu Fei was good friends with him, so she felt that he should be trustworthy, and with this master, the villagers in Lijiazhuang would not suffer greatly. In addition, the house bought by Hu Fei is in Qingrundian Town, not far from Zhuangzi, and it will ...... in the future It's also convenient......

Chunying lowered her head to cover the crimson on her face, continued to talk to Qingluan, and then "inadvertently" mentioned her father's "leg wind": "Maybe it's because it's too cold, and because of the cold, it seems to be getting worse." Fortunately, now that the Zhuangzi has been sold, he doesn't have to take care of the Zhuangzi, so he has some free time to recuperate at home. But I was too tired to move back to the city in the winter, and my family's house in the back street was long gone. ”

Qingluan said: "What's so difficult about this? Mention it to your wife, even if it's to Aunt Xu, someone will arrange a house for your father. However, there are not many empty houses in the back streets, and both governments have bought new servants and need to find a place to settle them. There are several young masters in the Li clan who have separated from each other and have to live in the backstreets. If you want to live more spacious, I'm afraid you will have to settle down in a farther alley. Didn't your second uncle live in Dogtail Alley? There should be a house nearby. ”

Chunying sighed: "I think it's difficult, my second uncle is because he is an errand boy in the eldest young master's house, and the backstreet is ...... I'm afraid there are really no empty houses, and even if there are, it's a small place with one or two rooms. I want my dad to live better, what do you think...... How long does it take to renovate an old house that no one lives in? ”

Qingluan was very surprised: "Then at least you can't start construction until the winter is over, is it possible to ask your father and mother to celebrate the New Year in the countryside?" Or did you spend time with your sister and brother-in-law? ”

Chun Ying hurriedly said, "Can you help me ask?" Now that the master is almost home, it is in the wax moon, and Mrs. Xu and Aunt Xu are busy, and I am embarrassed to bother them. The house is enough for my father and mother, and me and my brother to live together, so I want to come...... There should be three rooms, right? ”

Qingluan went to inquire, and the result of the inquiry was naturally disappointing. The three rooms connected together, which can live in people, and are worthy of the identity of the head of the village in front of the road, cannot be found in the whole backstreet. Chunying naturally said that it didn't matter, but Zhuo's family, who heard the news "accidentally", naturally thought: It turns out that the number of male and female servants in the two mansions has reached this point? It's time to cut the number of people.

She just mentioned it to the girls around her, Chunying soon knew, and immediately sent a letter to her sister and brother-in-law, and the next thing was to wait for the return of the second master.! ~！
