In the corridor on the west side of Biyun Pavilion, Meng Yuanzhou put down an account book in his hand and bent down to pick up the top one of the other stacks.

These were the general ledgers of the shops, which had just been sent from all over the place, and he could see them.

Li Jian, the manager, bowed and stood aside, quietly waiting for Meng Yuanzhou's inquiry.

"I heard that the customs has been strict recently, and the relationship has been opened, right?" Meng Yuanzhou glanced at the account book in his hand and asked.

Li Jian nodded hurriedly, "It's all settled." ”

"What about Bian Huai Waterway? Is the card strict? ”

"The waterway is more difficult than the land road, and those officials and old men who are in charge of the waterways can fish less oil and water, and if they catch one, they will knock on a stroke! However, they were all for money, so they sent some silver and invited a feast, and the matter was settled! ”

Meng Yuanzhou nodded, "This year's new silk has not been harvested yet, and I don't know what the market price is." ”

Li Jian thought for a while: "Silk is not cheap, the price will rise every year, some villagers grow mulberry and raise silkworms, they have to make money by selling silk, we Wanhe Buzhuang is a big head, not only Fengling County, the surrounding counties of the big households raising silkworms, we have all packaged, although it can guide the silkworm price direction, but the impact is very small." The loom in the weaving house in the cloth village has never stopped, and the slave estimated that the one collected last year could still weave 10,000 pieces of cloth, and the goods could not be broken. The matter of collecting silk will be arranged by the minions in the near future. ”

"That's good." Meng Yuanzhou used his pen to draw a line on the account book he had read, and then reached out to pick up another one, "Those people arranged in the embroidery village must not be relaxed. ”

"Yes."

At this time, Li Jian caught a glimpse of a woman standing outside the Biyun Pavilion not far away, looking left and right with a nervous expression, and then pulled a passing servant to ask.

Li Jian walked out of the corridor pavilion, walked a few steps and asked loudly, "Who is it?" What are you doing here?! "The backyard is not easy for people to enter, and the female workers in the embroidery village know that the violators will be severely punished.

The woman was Feng Ning, and when she saw Li Jian and Meng Yuanzhou here, she hurriedly walked over.

"I've seen Meng Ye." She stood in the corridor outside the corridor.

"Let her in and talk back." Meng Yuanzhou glanced at her and said to Li Jian.

"Come here!" Li Jian raised his hand at her.

Feng Ning walked in, cowardly and didn't dare to look up, and saluted again.

"You go down first!" Meng Yuanzhou said to Li Jian, put down the account book in his hand again, and sat on the chair, "Say it!" ”

Feng Ning hurriedly responded, "Meng Ye guessed right, that lady surnamed Du really has a problem!" A few days ago, I intentionally or unintentionally asked her about the matter at home, she was very tight-mouthed, refused to confide too much, and couldn't stand my soft grinding and hard bubbles, she said it all today. ”

"What did you say? Tell you what she said to you, as it is. Meng Yuanzhou said.

"This Du lady has a very bold idea in her heart, and she doesn't follow women's morals, she is disgusted by her husband, and her neighbors ridicule her, saying that she can save money to do her own business, and she doesn't rely on men to live, and she wants me to leave my husband's house to make a living alone......"

Meng Yuanzhou held a cup of Longjing before the rain in his hand, his eyes looked at it gently, his fingers rubbed against the wall of the cup, and he couldn't see any emotion.

After a while, Feng Ning finished what Du Ruo had said to her, and lowered her head slightly in her heart.

"Why did you marry into the Song family in the first place?" Meng Yuanzhou asked.

"She just said she had to do it." Feng Ning hurriedly said.

"What business is she going to do with her money?"

"This ...... She didn't say much, just told me that I was going to leave in two or three months. ”

Meng Yuanzhou held the cup in one hand, pinched the beads on the lid of the cup with the other, and knocked the wall of the cup below again and again, and the cups hit each other with a 'ding' crisp sound.

After a while, he said slowly: "She thinks too simply, if she leaves, how to change her household registration, if she is abandoned, how can she withstand the fingers of the people around her, how far can she go?" I'm afraid she hasn't been far away, has she? The woman has little knowledge, thinking that she can live alone, but she does not know the height of the sky, and such a stubborn temperament will suffer in the future. ”

"What Meng Ye said is that the Du family really doesn't keep their duties, they don't know that their livelihood is difficult, if her husband's family knows about her thoughts, I'm afraid they won't be able to get any good fruits to eat!" Feng Ning said.

Meng Yuanzhou's gaze fell on her, his face was dark, and he told her: "Don't tell these things to the second person in the future, if I know that it is passed on, you will not use it in the future." ”

He thought that Du Shi had a different purpose in approaching Xiuwen, and saw that she was different from others, so he started to inquire about her.

"Yes!" Feng Ning nodded hurriedly.

After thinking about it, he said again: "I heard that you are having a bad time in your husband's house, although what Du Shi said is absurd but not unreasonable, you still have to think of a way to live a stable life, crying all day long will only annoy people, and there is no other use." ”

"Yes."

"Find the person in charge to receive a reward of ten taels of silver, go back!"

"Yes!" Feng Ning saluted again excitedly, turned around and walked out of the pavilion.

Meng Yuanzhou stood up, stood against the wind, crossed the cloister and visited the garden, and everywhere he could see was a surging bamboo forest with no end in sight.

Ming Se walked along the corridor, stood beside him and arched his hand: "Master, this is a letter to the young master, the young master refuses to eat, and several subordinates are helpless, do you want to go and see." ”

Meng Yuanzhou took the letter and said, "Xiuwen has become more and more arrogant recently, don't pay attention to him." ”

"Yes."

He took out the letter and read it again, Du Shi was delicate, told him some small things on weekdays, and asked how he read the Xiuwen "Analects" and "Book of Songs", and picked up a few poems to test him and supervise his studies.

At the end of the letter, it was written: The concubine will return home soon, and the husband must not worry about it. It should be a response to the two sentences he wrote in the previous letter.

The handwriting is beautiful and neat, and the words are like their people.

Seeing that he had finished reading the letter, Ming Se said: "Du Niangzi is very concerned about the young master, and she is ready to send the young master rabbit to raise, but she was rejected by the slave maid. She's really kind, too. ”

Meng Yuanzhou smiled slightly, and ordered: "Go and ask the Du family to come to Biyun Pavilion." ”

"Yes." Minse didn't ask much and turned to leave.

In the Good Works Building. Du Ruo saw that Feng Ning came back after a long time, and before he could ask her a few words carefully, he was called away by Ming Se.

When she arrived in Biyun Pavilion, when she saw Meng Yuanzhou, she saluted respectfully, and guessed in her heart that he was probably asking herself to paint again, but today there was no trace of sadness in his expression, but there were two more points of sunshine.

"Sit down!" Meng Yuanzhou pointed to one of the chairs.

"Thank you, Master Meng."

"Recently, Xiuwen has been well-behaved and obedient a lot, and I'm sorry for you. It's just that he is still young and has no intention of doing his homework, you have a lot of supervision in your letter, he actually listened to your words and studied seriously, I don't know what books Du Niangzi has read? Meng Yuanzhou asked with a smile.

Du Ruo saw that he was in a good mood, so he relaxed, and said with a smile: "The little young master has a well-behaved temperament, and I just guide him by writing letters, this credit is not on me, it is just a piece of the young master's longing for his mother." It should be that I thank you, Master Meng, for rewarding me with a lot of silver coins. ”

"It turns out that Du Niangzi is looking at the face of rewarding silver, so she cares more about Xiuwen!" Meng Yuanzhou laughed mockingly.

Du Ruo saw that his words were misunderstood, so he hurriedly got up and said: "Master Meng misunderstood, the little young master is innocent by nature and is lovable, and I didn't show concern to the young master because of the silver reward." ”

Seeing Meng Yuanzhou's indifference, Du Ruo said again: "I haven't been able to find a chance to see Meng Ye a few days ago, since I saw it today, then I'll say it directly, although the idea of writing a letter was proposed by me, but it's really inappropriate for me to reply to the letter, and I can't bear to help hide this matter from the little young master, so Meng Ye will still order others to do this in the future." ”

Every time she writes a letter, she has to think about it first, and she has to think about it a lot. What's more, what happened to her and Meng Yuanzhou back and forth in the letter, although it was just a fake, her heart was really awkward.

"You've written so well that it's not a bad thing to keep it hidden, so what are you going to do when you stop?" Meng Yuanzhou suddenly got up and walked in front of her, staring at her eyes as if he wanted to see what she wanted in her heart.

Du Ruo only felt that his aura was a little pressing, so he quietly took a half step back and arched his hand: "Meng Ye should find someone else to do it." ”

He took another step forward, got closer, and looked down at her somewhat evasive eyes: "I have told you to do a lot of things these days, rewarding you with a few taels of silver is nothing, if you do well in the future, there will definitely be a heavy reward." ”

"Thank you, Master Meng." It seems that she is going to continue to write......

He laughed suddenly, turned and walked back to his seat.

Du Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, what the rich think, I really can't understand it.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, he heard Meng Yuanzhou say again: "Paint me another painting, it's still her, you can paint as much as you like." ”

"Yes."
