Chapter 348: The Mysterious Man
It turned out that when the master of the bamboo garden saw the smoothie, he became suspicious and asked his guard, "Where did the country people get the ice cellar?" Could it be that he is not an ordinary farmer? What kind of family is this, go find out quickly. ”
The guards were also very puzzled, originally thought it was an ordinary farmer, the man ran two trips of business outside a year, and twice saved the master's life at a critical moment, and that time he almost took the master's life, such a person, where do you need to be suspicious? Besides, they are still in a state of avoidance, and there are few people around, where can they spare time to check this?
But the guards didn't dare to refute, so they had to personally find someone to investigate carefully, and even the ancestors had asked carefully for several generations, this investigation not only found out the Zeng family, but also found out the relationship between Lin Kangping and the Wen family, and also heard about Ziqing's early wisdom, especially the Zeng family because of Ziqing's fortune. Of course, there is also the legend of Master Huiguang about Yanran, which was once spread one after another, but now although it has fallen silent, it has also been dug up by him.
After the guards sorted out the information they had found and reported it, the master thought for a long time and asked, "It turned out to be the Zeng family, the Tanhualang family two years ago?" There is also a state that has developed a thresher? ”
"Yes, master, Tanhualang's mother lives next door, but the family also grows a lot of watermelons and vegetables, and there is still a plaque on the door. The male owner of this family surnamed Lin met the Zeng family because of the third young master Wen, and after leaving the country, he married the eldest daughter of the Zeng family, stayed here and settled down, and placed these properties, not only locally, but also in the capital. ”
The master took a few glances at the information in his hand, and swept over the legend about Yanran's rich life, and these non-existent things did not arouse his interest. The Lin family's property was carefully browsed, and suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he asked: "This Zhuangzi is just fine, but why did you go to a place hundreds of miles away and buy a few mountains, but there was no movement?" ”
"This, the small one is not clear. Heard. When I bought it, an old man took two small guys to go, and after wandering around for more than a month, I decided to buy those mountains, and the purchase of mountains was signed directly by the owner of the Lin family after returning from Yuecheng. ”
"I'm afraid that there is something strange about these mountains, you can find someone to take a closer look. Also, send a letter to Wen San. He knew I was coming out and asked him to come quickly. ”
The guards agreed to go, Ziqing and Lin Kangping didn't know anything about these natures.
It was evening when Wen San entered the door, and Ziqing was pushing Yanran and her four sons to take a walk by the pond. Seeing Wen San, before Ziqing could say hello, Wen San hurriedly walked up to Ziqing and asked in a low voice, "Where do the guests at home live?" Have you seen him or not? ”
Only then did Ziqing know that Wen San was not coming to see her, but seeing Wen San's solemn expression, it was not the time to reminisce. Busy said: "I haven't seen him yet, it's all Kangping who brought him food and food, and he didn't even let the maid in." He lives in Zhuyuan, which is where you lived last time, and I will take you there. ”
Wen San was relieved to learn that Ziqing hadn't seen the guest, and said, "You don't need to go, I'll go by myself, it's not like I haven't been here." And also. It's okay, stay away from there. ”
Although Ziqing was suspicious, she didn't want to ask in detail, so she had to go with him.
Ziqing saw that Wen San went, and she laughed with the children wholeheartedly, Xiao Yanran grew up day by day, and now it has been more than two months, Ziqing only wears a camisole for the child, and when she was pregnant, she drank a lot of goat milk and ate a lot of fruits, and each child's skin was very white. Especially Yanran. The pink and white skin is really blown. The eyeballs are like little black grapes, looking at you and smiling, there is no trouble, the hair on the forehead is still curly, it is really indescribably cute, the four brothers like it is indispensable, and I can't wait to hold my most precious things in front of her.
It is said that Wen San entered the bamboo garden, and when he saw that there were guards, he knelt down busily: "Second master, my subordinates are late and ineffective, please punish the second master." ”
It turns out that this second master is the second son of the current emperor, and he has been good with Wen San since he was a child, Wen San's grandfather was the emperor's teacher, and he was also their teacher. And this second master is also Li Er, who forced Ziqing to flee from the capital in a hurry, and his name is Li Han. At this moment, Li Han looked at Wen San quietly and half-sounded, and then said: "Get up, there are no outsiders, let's sit and talk about our relationship." ”
So, Li Han asked Wen San how he knew the Zeng family, how Lin Kangping married the daughter of the Zeng family, and the relationship between the two families. Wen San knew that according to Li Han's style of acting, he was afraid that he had already checked all of this, and this would be verified, and it also depended on Wen San's attitude and some details.
Wen San started with Ziqing starting to buy watermelon seeds from Zhou's shopkeeper and selling watermelons, as well as the scene where he saw Ziqing for the first time, and later because the watermelons of the Zeng family were really good, and they were listed earlier than others, and there were not many watermelons planted at that time, the supply and demand relationship between the two families stabilized.
"Is that girl so smart? I heard that what down jackets and sweaters in your family were also made by her? There is also her family's wasteland converted into Zhuangzi, what is it called Kangzhuang, there is everything in it, and what kind of vermicelli vermicelli workshop? The villagers are basically self-sufficient and still have some leftovers, and their lives are much stronger than those outside, I heard that she can also make ice, just a woman, can she be so powerful? Is there some master behind it? ”
"I haven't heard of any superior people, I have known her since I was a child, I always thought she was a little village girl, but after contact, I felt very different, I heard that I also read and read since I was a child, and I love to read miscellaneous books and idle books, but I have no interest in the subset of scriptures and history, and I don't know what I learned from books."
"Her eldest brother Zeng Zifu is your classmate in Guozijian, what do you think of him? Also, her younger brother is now in the Hanlin Academy, and it is not common for me to have two Jinshi out of this door. ”
"Not only that, but their family also has two Xiucai, and none of the four sons in this family is Bai Ding. Otherwise, the emperor would not be extraordinarily gracious and rewarded. Zeng Zifu is also a talented person, does the second master remember the threshing machine more than two years ago? That was praised by the emperor himself, and how much labor was saved for my dynasty, that was invented by Zeng Zifu. It is said that it took more than half a year to succeed. In addition, Zeng Zifu vigorously promoted the development and utilization of wasteland in Hualien back then, and has achieved a lot of results, many of which he learned from his sister, such as the sweet potato seedlings that can be pruned and plugged to live, saving a lot of potato seeds. Zeng Zifu also became the governor of Changzhou because of these people, in charge of grain and water conservancy. ”
"Oh, or did he learn from his sister? When you say this, I think of it, her family actually bought a few mines hundreds of miles away, do you know whose guidance? ”
Wen San was stunned for a moment and asked, "I really don't know this, buy a mine?" When did her family open a mine? ”
"It's not open yet, it's a large copper mine, it's very secretive, and I wonder why her family bought a few mountains hundreds of miles away, but they have been idle, so they found out. Could it be Zeng Zixi's idea? But there is no reason to use the name of the Lin family? Li Han asked.
"Zeng Zixi is the best student among the four brothers, and he won Tanhualang once and edited in Hanlin Academy. Now I have opened a glass factory in the capital, which is a partnership between several brothers and sisters of the Zeng family, and the business is very good, busy with the second and third phases, and I have not heard that the mine is going to be opened. ”
"Glass? Where did the recipe come from? Li Han was more interested, but he didn't expect that this small farmhouse had a lot of secrets.
"I heard that the secret recipe for making glass was bought by Lin Kangping from a foreigner. Lin Kangping has to go to Guangdong twice a year to deliver goods to foreigners, and that relationship was established when I was at home. ”
"Hearing this, I want to meet this peasant woman, since you are so clever as you say, why didn't you ask for it in the first place? It's cheaper for your subordinates. That Lin Kangping, I see that he is also a rich man now. It's strange that I always see him familiar with each day, and the first time he saved me, I felt like I had seen it somewhere, it turned out to be your person. ”
Wen Sanyi panicked when he heard this, this Li Han was going to see Ziqing, didn't he know that the person he was going to chase that year was Ziqing? In fact, Li Han saw that Lin Kang was familiar with each other, and it was also because he followed Ziqing that day, and the afterglow swept by, and his main mind was still on Ziqing, otherwise he would have been exposed. But this will Li Er want to see Ziqing, and Wen San is thinking about how to stop it.
Li Han stood up and looked out through the window, but he didn't see anything, only heard a string of children's laughter and frolic, Li Er walked to the gate of the courtyard, and then saw that under the shade of a tree not far away, a young woman in purple pushed a small car, and the four children were talking and laughing around, but he couldn't see the woman's face clearly, only to see the gentle smile that lowered his head, as if he was familiar.
"Let's go, it's better to meet by chance, I've also disturbed people for a while, I should visit the hostess." After Li Han finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out first, without waiting for Wen San to speak.
There is no way to do this, I originally wanted to get a message and let Ziqing dress up like an ordinary peasant woman, but now I am doomed, and even I can't escape the guilt, Wen San can only mourn in his heart.
"This sister-in-law, who is a guest of Zhuyuan, has saved her life twice in my heart, and I have bothered you for too long this time, so I would like to say thank you." Li Han said.
"You're welcome." Ziqing was looking down and laughing with her sons, and when she heard the guest say this, she replied without raising her head, and when Ziqing stood up straight and raised her head to look at the other party, she heard the other party exclaim: "It's you." ”
Ziqing was confused when she heard this, she looked at each other, her eyes widened, and she asked in a daze, "Have we met?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
