Chapter 221 is in a dilemma

Shen Muqing walked in and saw a woman with a strange face sitting on the Taishi chair on the left side of the flower hall drinking tea—behind her stood a little girl dressed as a maid at the age of thirteen or fourteen. 【】(Hand hitting)

The woman was in her forties, of medium height, somewhat plump, with a few golden hairpins on her head, and a royal blue brocade gown. Although his facial features are ordinary, his smile is concerned, his bearing is generous, and he looks very neat.

The woman sitting should be Mrs. Fang...... The little girl standing should be Mrs. Fang's maidservant, right?

Shen Muqing thought about it, and Mrs. Fang had already stood up with a smile and saluted her: "It's Mrs. Xiao, right?" ”

"Yes!" Shen Muqing gave her a smile in return, and greeted her warmly: "Mrs. Fang! ”

Mrs. Fang's expression became a little cordial when she heard this, and she said with a smile: "I have wanted to come to see Mrs. Xiao for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity." Mrs. Xiao is really better than seeing it, and she is very beautiful. ”

Anyone will say two kind words.

Shen Muqing smiled and invited Mrs. Fang to take a seat: "Madame is too polite...... I've wanted to visit you for a long time, but I've been staying in Yanzhouwei, and I don't have anyone to introduce me, so I can't afford it! ”

The two sat down, Mrs. Fang asked the little maid to salute Shen Muqing, Shen Muqing rewarded the little maid with eight coins of silver, and asked Mingxia to take the little maid down for tea.

"Mrs. Xiao will live in Yanzhou Wei for a long time in the future. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Mrs. Fang looked at it and smiled slightly, and greeted Shen Muqing, "Now that people know each other, we will often walk around in the future." ”

Shen Muqing smiled and nodded: "As Madam said, you have to move around more in the future." ”

The two of you are talking about the excitement of talking back and forth, the maid served tea twice, and seeing that it was almost noon, Shen Muqing couldn't hear Mrs. Fang's intention.

She simply smiled and said to Mrs. Fang: "Madame is the first time to the cold house, please stay for a meal." ”

Mrs. Fang hurriedly smiled: "How can that work!" How embarrassed to stay for lunch. ”

I don't want to stay for lunch, why don't you quit...... Shen Muqing thought about it, and felt more and more that Mrs. Fang's intentions were suspicious.

"As soon as I heard the little maids say that Mrs. Fang was coming, I immediately ordered the kitchen to prepare wine and food, and Mrs. asked Mrs. to measure my painstaking efforts no matter what."

What she said was sincere, and Mrs. Fang was very hesitant.

Shen Muqing said a few more words to stay guests.

Mrs. Fang showed a resolute look in her eyes and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then I might as well be respectful." It's just that the one at home is still waiting for me to go back and cook...... Let Apricot go back and report a message! ”

Apricot is the husband's personal maid!

Shen Muqing hurriedly said: "Look at what Madame said, how can there be any reason to leave you behind, but make Master Fang hungry." Besides, you can't feel at ease with me! As he spoke, he called the little maid, "Go, tell the seventh master, and say that I left Mrs. Fang to eat at home, and Lord Fang's meal is gone, so let him go with Lord Fang." ”

The little maid left in response, and Shen Muqing smiled and said to Mrs. Fang: "It just so happens that I can also talk to Mrs. Fang." ”

Mrs. Fang thanked her again and again: "It's too troublesome for you!" ”

"Madame is talking about trouble!" Shen Muqing smiled, "On weekdays, we can't even invite them." Today, Lord Fang can come, and we are also stained with Madame's light. ”

Shen Muqing said and laughed, and called the little maid to set the meal.

After eating, Shen Muqing asked Mrs. Fang to sing Wuyi tea.

When Mrs. Fang said that Master Fang liked "West Lake Longjing", Shen Muqing promised: "...... I asked someone to bring some to Master Fang. ”

Mrs. Fang thanked Shen Muqing, and Xiao Sa's personal servant Yuliang came in and said, "Lord Fang said that he still has something to do to go back to the guard, so let the little lady come to say that he will go back first." ”

Mrs. Fang nodded after hearing this, rewarded Yuliang with a tael of silver, and complained to Shen Qing with a smile: "...... Follow him to the health center, there is not even a school, and if you don't follow him, you often hang on both ends. ”

There was no anger in his tone. Shen Muqing knew that she was just joking with herself, so she said, "It's still important for the children's future......

Mrs. Fang nodded, leaned over to Shen Muqing and said, "I heard the master say that Master Xiao is from the top of the family...... We want to invite Xiao Ye to sit in the county school. ”

Shen Muqing was stunned.

Could it be that Mrs. Fang is here for this......

We? Who are they?

Mrs. Fang's eyes were a little pleading: "Our master is like this for the rest of his life...... I don't want my kids to stay here...... Don't you know, a few years ago, Yuanmeng hit the guard, and several children ...... Since then, I have been determined to send the children away...... I also know that you also have to discuss Xiao Ye about this matter, and I also want to ask for a letter. If Xiao Ye agrees, Master Zheng will ask Master Duan to come to the item. ”

"Master Duan?" Shen Muqing didn't know who this person was.

Mrs. Fang hurriedly explained: "Master Duan's single name is a Nan character, and it is the most prosperous family in Huding County...... Not only are their families willing, but the single family in the east of the city and the Liao family in the south of the city all agree. ”

In this era, respecting teachers and valuing education, it is of course good to be able to teach in the county school in Huding County, but when she thought of the ardent hopes of these parents, Shen Muqing couldn't help but feel a heavy responsibility, and hurriedly explained: "But our master is a martial champion......

"Oh, it's a champion." Mrs. Fang saw that Shen Muqing's tone was a little relaxed, and she hurriedly said, "It's better than the child in the county school who has not been in the exam all his life!" And Xiao Ye also has a good martial arts, maybe he can teach a few masters, and if the Yuanmeng people come to the guard, we can also have a few top-notch ......"

Mrs. Fang has a point. Xiao Sa is a serious talent, if he is a child born in a serious way, he should be a little higher...... The most important thing is that if Xiao Sa can learn to be a gentleman in Huding County, then he can find his position in Huding again in the future!

The thought flashed, and Shen Muqing nodded: "I'll go talk to Xianggong!" ”

Mrs. Fang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, chatted with Shen Muqing for a few words, and got up to say goodbye under the pretext that there were still children to take care of at home.

Shen Muqing was also anxious to tell Xiao Sa about it, and after sending Mrs. Fang away, he immediately asked where Xiao Sa was. Knowing that he was in the main room, Shen Muqing hurried to the main room again.

Xiao Sa was in the western study, reading a book of soldiers, when he heard the movement and looked up, he saw that it was Shen Muqing, and saw that she looked anxious, thinking that Mrs. Fang had been at home all day, her face froze, and she hurriedly greeted her: "What's wrong?" Look at the sweat! ”

Although she was worried, she didn't dare to ask Shen Muqing directly, for fear that she would come back from a blow outside and hear that her tone was not good and she was depressed.

Shen Muqing hurriedly sent the people serving around him, and told Mrs. Fang's intentions: "...... What do you think? ”

Xiao Sa groaned: "Good is good ......"

"Are you afraid that your education will delay the children's future?" Shen Muqing said.

Xiao Sa shook his head: "My knowledge is naturally not comparable to that of Mr. Min and others, but compared to children, I think I still have some skills...... What's more, Huding is located in a remote area, and if you learn a certain level, you must go to Ya'an Mansion to study...... I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about Lord Peng's side......"

Shen Muqing thought of it, and early this morning, Xiao Sa called Pang Debao to discuss business with Peng Lingxun...... Busy said: "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Sa told her carefully: "Today I discussed with Pang Debao for a long time and decided to do a rice shop business with Master Peng!" ”

Shen Muqing trusted Xiao Sa's strategy very much, and said, "What is the purpose?" ”

Xiao Sa looked at Shen Muqing's eyes with a little joy. He smiled and whispered, "According to the Great Zhou Law, all counties need to hoard three years of scarce grain...... Naturally, these grains cannot be stored for a long time, so every year the county government will sell the old grain at a discount, and then levy new grain......"

Shen Muqing immediately understood: "You mean, when the time comes, Peng Lingxun can sell good grain as old grain, or he can sell old grain as moldy grain...... That way, you'll be able to roll over the difference! ”

Xiao Sa's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he pinched Shen Muqing's cheek affectionately: "Why are you so smart!" ”

Shen Muqing snorted and said, "But this matter ......"

"I'm going to try him." Xiao Sa interrupted Shen Muqing's words, raised his head and stood with his hands behind his back, his bright eyes flashing with a cold light like a blade, "Let's see if he will hit the idea of the county granary!" ”

"If he really ......" Shen Muqing looked at Xiao Sa, who was amazing, very worried.

Xiao Sa pursed his lips, and there was a murderous aura on his body: "If he really moves the granary of the county government, this person will naturally not be able to hand it over." Don't say it's a partnership to do business, it's too close, I'm afraid it will affect you and me. ”

Could it be that politics is now so clear...... Shen Muqing was very skeptical when he thought of who he was today.

"It can't be that serious, can it?" She hesitated, "And we're standing under the eaves now...... It's not good to tear his face with him......"

Xiao Sa sneered and said, "The meaning of Peng's county order is to record the shop in your name and let me make a living." ”

"Credited to my name?" Shen Muqing opened his mouth and stammered.

Xiao Sa nodded, and there was anger rolling in his eyes: "I told him that we don't have silver taels in our hands for the time being, and we will discuss what to do after Pang Debao goes to Jinzhou." I also hinted at him about the granary grain...... Mu Qing, don't worry, even if I go around, I'll let you out. ”

The two can't live happily together, so what's the point?

Shen Muqing sighed secretly, and said with some frustration: "What's the point of me getting out......

Xiao Sa was stunned when he heard this, and then thought of the meaning contained in this sentence, and he was throbbing for a while.

He hugged his wife and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't worry, I have found a solution." In three days at most, there will be news! ”

Since Xiao Sa was already thinking of a way, Shen Muqing decided not to ask for the time being.

She was hugged tightly in Xiao Sa's arms, her cheek was pressed against his strong chest, and her speech was a little unsmooth: "Then, how can I tell Mrs. Fang about going to the county school to be a gentleman?" "The voice was a little muffled.

Mu Qing's voice was buzzing, was he unhappy...... She must have hoped that she would agree to go to the county school to be a gentleman...... In this way, they can be respected by the world, and it can be said that it is an opportunity for them to find themselves in the current situation......

Where does he not understand his wife's thoughts......

"Okay, I'll go to the county school to be a gentleman...... As for Lord Peng's matter, I know what to do! ”
