Cha Yue didn't seem to notice anything wrong, but said impatiently: "Why do you care why those people chose them?" I still wish they hadn't chosen our family's Zhuang family to save the offense" But she is still from everyone's background, knowing that the identity of King Kang's prince is precious, and she is already at a loss, if there is any change, it will be difficult to explain, so even if she is reluctant, she still ordered the head of the village to send a few more people to guard outside the main courtyard, pay attention to the families of the two women, and save any mistakes. The head of the village took the order.

The two women did things neatly and there was nothing out of the ordinary, and their families seemed to be honest people, and Zha Yue finally relieved himself after listening to the report from his subordinates. She was angry for a long time, and it was not early at this time, so she specially invited a friend to play, but she made such a disappointment, and she felt that her face was gloomy. As if she wanted to wash away this humiliation, she enthusiastically left everyone to stay in the village for one night, and said: "The school field behind Zhuangzi has been cleaned up, didn't Ling'er say that she was going to compete with Sister Li?" There are hot springs there, there is a clean yard, everyone has a good soak, go to the lack, the hot spring on a cold day is the most comfortable, after soaking there to eat, the head of the Zhuang family has packed up all kinds of game and fresh melon vegetables, are specially planted on the Zhuangzi, in addition to the worship palace, there is no other family in the capital can eat, you can not miss don't worry about idle people, etc., after the village I have called someone to clear the field, but also let the mother-in-law of the family guard it, not allowed to let a man pass. Let's go and play with confidence."

In fact, Wen Yi and the others had no intention of playing at this time, but Cha Yue vigorously invited them, and they were not good at spoiling their fun, so Ruan Mengxuan said: "What hot springs are you going to go in the daytime?" Let's have some fun on the school grounds. Wen Yi was a little worried: "It doesn't matter if you let that prince here?" ”

"There are people waiting for him, let's go with pleasure, don't be disappointed" Cha Yue took Wen Yi's hand, and forced everyone to go to the school field behind the village, and saw that all kinds of bows and arrows had been furnished there, many of which were boutiques, and several girls from Jiangmen were interested, and even Li Dongrui was excited to touch here and there, and was blasted out by Li Chunxi: "It's all girls here, what are you doing here?" Let's go out of the village and cause less trouble."

Li Dongrui drooped his head and left dejectedly, but while his sister was unprepared, he quietly pulled Wen Yi: "Good sister, I haven't eaten lunch and I'm hungry, what should I do?" ”

Wen Yi was not interested in these weapons, and thought that he had brought their sister and brother here today, and he had caused a disaster at a young age, and he was already guilty of five points in his heart, and after listening to his words, he hurriedly said: "It was my negligence, when you were just eating, you were not there, and it was not easy to survive until this time." I'm going to talk to Miss Cha......"

"Don't ......" Li Dongrui was anxious and scratched his head, "Sister Gu, don't tell Miss Cha, she is very disgusted with me, she must not have a good face, and as soon as she moves, my sister will know that my sister said that she will not let me stay here......"

Wen Yi frowned, but she still had a warm smile on her face: "It's okay, your sister is just afraid that you will be inconvenient here, and she has never stopped you from eating, although she is strict with you, she is actually still very worried about you." From Li Chunxi's words and deeds, she can vaguely understand a little bit of the other party's thoughts. didn't let Li Dongrui mix with these girls, because he was afraid that someone, especially Miss Cha, would misunderstand him and ruin his reputation; Asking him to go outside the village is to suggest that he should not approach the prince again, right? It's a pity that Li Chunxi's tone is too hard and cold, and Li Dongrui, who is afraid of his sister like a tiger, may not be able to hear it.

Li Dongrui shrunk his neck, glanced in his sister's direction in fear, and kept shaking his head. Although there is Sister Gu to help intercede, his eldest sister will not do anything to him, but once Sister Gu leaves his house, God knows how the eldest sister will toss him? He's still obedient......

Wen Yi saw that he insisted, and he didn't say anything, so after thinking about it, he said: "I'll go back to the courtyard with you, there are still a lot of dim sum dishes left for lunch, ask the girl and mother-in-law of the Cha family to heat it up, and deal with the past for the time being, but I have wronged you a little." ”

Li Dongrui suddenly smiled: "Don't be wronged, don't be wronged, I often eat leftovers at home, it's good to have a full stomach, even if it's cold rice and cold dishes."

Wen Yi sighed, looked for an opportunity to say hello to Zha Yue, only said that she was a little tired and wanted to go back to the house with Li Dongrui to rest. At this time, Long Ling was making a fuss about comparing marksmanship with Li Chunxi, and everyone was coaxing, it was the time to be lively, so Zha Yue didn't take it to heart, and only sent a girl to accompany them.

Wen Yi and his party returned to the mansion just now, and when they were still some distance away from the door, they happened to see a middle-aged man standing outside the gate, heard the sound of footsteps, and quickly looked up at them, the light flashed in his eyes, and then he immediately lowered his head. Wen Yi felt that something was wrong, turned her head to look, and saw him standing outside the door with an honest face, standing with his hands tied, no matter how he looked or dressed, he looked like an ordinary dealer, and the light she saw just now seemed to be just an illusion.

Wen Yi stopped, and the girl from the Cha family also saw the man, so she asked him, "Who are you?" What to do here? ”

The man bowed his head and said respectfully, "Small...... The little wife was waiting in the house, and the nobleman wanted to eat the freshly baked bread, and the little wife asked the little one to bring the stove over. ”

The girl knew whose handwriting it was as soon as she heard it, and under the influence of the master, she naturally didn't have a good impression of the prince, and coldly ordered: "Wait here, don't walk around" and politely invited Wen Yi and Li Dongrui to enter the door.

When Wen Yi passed by the man, she quietly glanced at his hand, and found that this person's ten fingers were clean and the nails were well maintained, and it was by no means the hands of a farmer or a craftsman, and a calluse could be faintly seen between the middle finger and the index finger, more like a character holding a pen all year round. She frowned slightly, keeping the incident in her mind for the time being.

They went to the wing room in the side yard, and the girl quickly got a large food box from the kitchen, which was full of dishes and snacks, and they were all hot. But after dinner, everything is leftover from lunch, most of them are steamed buns and other things, and there are also a few kinds of meat, because they have been specially cleaned up, so they don't look embarrassed. Li Dongrui ate the hot soup quickly, sat on the chair contentedly, spread his hands and feet and sighed.

Wen Yi looked funny, so she called the girl: "The little guys who went out with Cousin Li probably haven't eaten yet, if there are any hot meals left, can you please send them one?" ”

"Miss Gu is serious, it was the slaves and maids who were negligent, and the slaves and maids let people send them." The girl smiled and curtsied, and then asked people to get ready to go. Li Dongrui touched his head a little embarrassed, jumped up: "I'll send it over, don't dare to bother my sisters" and then quickly filled half a pot of steamed buns with the hem of his clothes, and carried two more vegetable bowls, and went out with a cigarette.

Wen Yi looked funny, and he had to make amends for him, but he remembered another teenager who also went out to ride a horse and missed lunch: "Where is the prince of King Kang...... Have you ever sent food over? ”

The girl immediately smiled: "Miss Gu don't have to worry, didn't the prince just say that he wanted to eat pancakes?" Not hungry. The slave maid went and asked the kitchen. Then she turned around and left, but the direction she went was clearly not the kitchen.

Wen Yi frowned, only feeling that Zha Yue was a little dependent on snubbing the prince of Kang, but how could the girl of the Zha family be so bold? Aren't you afraid that the nobles will blame you? Besides, although the prince is willful and loves to mess around, and is a little annoying, he still has to abide by the etiquette that should be kept, and he is also a guest

After thinking about it, she turned her eyes to the remaining snacks on the table, and saw a plate of delicate buns, because they were filled with roses, Li Dongrui thought it was too sweet, so she didn't touch it, and it was still hot at this time. The previous Prince Kang also said that he wanted to eat rose paste to appetize, I wonder if he particularly likes this taste? She hesitated for a moment, then put the plate of buns into the food box, added a plate of dim sum that Li Dongrui had not touched, covered it tightly, and carried it in the direction of the main courtyard.

At the gate of the main courtyard, there are several family members of the Cha family, and a few mothers-in-law waiting to be sent. Wen Yi didn't have much to do, just handed them the food box and let them pass it in, then turned around and planned to leave, but when he swept over a figure in the courtyard, he couldn't help but pause, and wondered in his heart: Wasn't the middle-aged man waiting outside the gate? How did you get in?

She watched as the man entered the house, and his wife and another woman were standing at the door, and she was even more suspicious.

After thinking about it, this prince of King Kang will specially go to the Zha family village to play, and suddenly fall off the horse, which always makes people feel a little weird, and he doesn't want the servants of the Zha family Zhuangzi to wait, but he wants to pick people from the village, but the person who picks the Zha family Zhuangzi is not the person who came to the Zha family Zhuangzi, but just came to borrow it two days ago...... She thought of the middle-aged man's fingers, and her heart tightened.

That's it, if this prince of King Kang did it on purpose, she is just an ordinary woman, why do you need to find the root cause and get along with him? How many of these golden branches and jade leaves are honest and don't cause trouble? It doesn't have anything to do with her, so it's better to be unaware......

Zhu Jingshen flipped through the account book in his hand, a little irritable: "This year's hard work, there is only these gains?" You're not going to be coaxing me, are you? ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly knelt down and said, "My subordinates don't dare to follow the orders of the prince and purchase high-grade farms in the suburbs of Beijing, but the two years have not been good, so the harvest in the fields is not good." And the fields around the capital, but all the good ones, there are people eyeing them, including many high-ranking officials and magnates, the prince has ordered, not to let people know that we are the people of King Kang's mansion, so the subordinates dare not compete with those buyers, in the past two years, only three fields have been purchased, one of the best, because the Zheng family has taken a fancy to it, the subordinates have to ......"

Zhu Jingshen sneered: "You are a manager, and you can sell the property for me, and you are really promising."

The man shivered, bowed down, and after a while, he heard Zhu Jingshen say casually: "If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you only say that the master's family is in the field, and you are a domestic servant who can't be the master, just send people away." If he can't find the right master, he is looking for you to be unlucky, what's the use? ”

The man was too busy to respond, and then asked tentatively in a whisper, "One more thing...... Since the beginning of this year, the fields around the capital have become more and more difficult to buy, but the houses in the city are still a little profitable, if the prince nods, his subordinates can buy a few more shops in the capital, whether it is to do business at their own expense, or rent to others, it is ......"

"Don't" Before he finished speaking, Zhu Jingshen interrupted him, "The people in the capital are complicated, and you can meet the princes and magnates casually. Now that I am old, I am not in the palace much more expensive than before, and if I ask someone to take away these inheritances, I really can't do anything, everything is safe, and the best farm can be used to contain the people of the palace. If there is no suitable high-quality land in the suburbs of Beijing, then the second- and third-class fields can also be, or farther away, to find the other side of the Huaijiang River in the area of Dongping Mansion, there are also many suitable land, even if the wasteland is not a problem, find some honest and capable tenants to reclaim it. There is only one thing, you have to remember it clearly for me......" He stared at the man, his eyes were like ice, "These properties are mine, you only take care of them temporarily, if it is not inconvenient in the palace, I will not hand over the contract to you to collect, but if you have a different heart, or arrogant, I cannot nod your head, and dispose of my property without permission, even if you are an old man in the palace, and you have been loyal to our family for generations, I can't tolerate it, can you remember clearly?" ”

The man almost fell to the ground, only to feel the little master's gaze on his back, like a stabbing knife. He responded one by one in horror, and only then did he tie back the account book that the little master had thrown back to his body, arrange his clothes, and make sure that outsiders could not see it, so he carefully withdrew. When passing by the two women, he said in a low voice: "Good life waiting, if the prince has orders, report back immediately" The two women respectfully responded, but it was impossible to see that one of them was his "wife".

Zhu Jingshen was lying on his back on the kang, his limbs were wide open, and he raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his forehead with a headache. If it weren't for the delay in getting the crown and the property of the palace falling into the hands of the emperor's people, why would he tolerate such a greedy and stupid subordinate......

The maid carefully walked in with the food box and persuaded: "Lord Shizi, don't be angry, Wang Yongtai is actually quite loyal, and he doesn't dare to come nonsense, but he is a little stupid." And said: "Don't rub around, your face is drugged."

Zhu Jingshen didn't take it seriously, propped his hands back, sat up, and looked at the food box in her hand with some confusion: "Where did this come from?" I've made a fuss like this, could it be that the girl from the Cha family would still think of bringing me food? She didn't suspect Wang Yongtai, right? ”
