Chapter 108: Something Happened

"Bang dang!"

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a basket toppling in the courtyard.

The hand paused, and then the feet turned and walked out of the room.

When the servant opened the door, he saw that one layer of the rack in the courtyard where the vegetables were drying had fallen to the ground.

He couldn't help frowning, but someone broke in?

He went back to his room and took the oil lamp, and looked around the courtyard, the night was deep, but under the dim oil lamp, the small courtyard was also visible.

Even in that dim corner, he had seen them one by one, and there was no trace of anyone coming.

The little official's brows furrowed even harder.

"Meow!" Bang.

The little official followed the sound and saw the civet in the courtyard next to him, squatting above the vegetable shelf, screaming contemptuously at him.

"You're the unconscious again!" The little official scolded, holding the oil lamp and rushing to catch the cat.

This damn civet, who stole his newly bought fish two days ago, didn't say anything, and now he doesn't know how to avoid him, and even comes to the door arrogantly?

He also knocked over the rack he used to dry vegetables!

Thanks to the vegetables on this shelf, he has taken them back in the daytime, otherwise, it would not have been in vain!

The little official's heart was on fire.

The cat was startled by him, and then screamed, kicked its legs hard, and jumped out.

The upper shelf could not withstand its exertion, and it immediately toppled over again.

The little official couldn't avoid it for a while, and he was smashed by the shelf, and the oil lamp in his hand also fell to the ground and shattered cleanly.

With a "poof", the lights went out.

The light was lost, and the courtyard was suddenly pitch black.

Look at the cat again, where can you still find it?

The little official scolded fiercely: "Tell me to touch it again, be careful of your skin!" ”

He was so angry that he didn't bother to find another oil lamp, so he simply went back to the bedroom in the dark.

I was going to find out the mind of bookkeeping, but I was interrupted by this, and I had no idea for the time being, so I just waited for tomorrow daytime to remember.

He walked to the bedside, kicked his feet, and threw his boots aside.

Then, the bed slammed down, and the man on top let out a long breath and closed his eyes.

He seemed to be so angry with the cat that he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.

After a long time, the breath subsided, and the sound of breathing on the bed gradually stabilized.

Immediately afterward, the breath sank, and it was thought that the master had fallen asleep.

He Lingjiang cautiously crawled out from under the bed, and then put his fingers together, and drew a sleeping charm in the void, which was printed on the forehead of the little official.

The little official smashed the corners of his mouth, as if he had slept more soundly.

She and Pei You quietly walked out of the house.

Qingzhu on the side saw the figures of the two and hurriedly stepped forward: "Seventh lady, are you okay?" ”

She saw the little official enter the house, and hurriedly caught the cat from the next family and threw it into the courtyard, and easily knocked over a layer of shelves for drying things.

The little official was startled by the noise in the courtyard, and immediately went out of the door, but he didn't know if he had found the Seven Ladies and them.

He Lingjiang shook his head and motioned to go out first.

When he returned to Liu Da's courtyard, he saw that He Zheng was already waiting in front of the door.

Seeing He Lingjiang coming over with Pei You, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and then saluted with his hands crossed: "Seventh lady." ”

"What did the overseer do?" He Lingjiang asked.

He Zheng saw that she didn't mean to shy away from Pei You, so he said truthfully: "Someone secretly handed him a message, saying that he wanted to transport some things up the mountain. ”

This mountain naturally refers to the privately mined mine.

When the inspector received the news, he left the yard at night and went to a remote place on the west side of the mining area.

He Zheng followed him all the way, and saw that there were already people waiting there, and there were several strong men behind him.

The little official arched his hand and greeted him with a smile: "Why did the strict steward come here in person tonight?" Look at the sky, there may be rain tonight. ”

Yan Guan waved his hand: "After receiving your news, I am still a little worried, so I will take a look for myself." Coincidentally, I heard that the supplies on the mountain were running out, so I sent some more without anyone. ”

"Is there anything wrong with the lady of the He family?" Yan asked the steward.

The supervisor shook his head: "Maybe I'm too careful, this whole day, I only saw her looking for some waste stones, maybe it's really the rich lady who came out to play." ”

"It's fine. Watch out for her. ”

The steward led the servant to the chariot and horse beside him, and he lifted the coarse cloth covering the basket, and sure enough, he saw that it was full of baked naan, and the frame next to it contained jerky.

These ten or so baskets of food were enough for the miners to eat for three or five days.

From the corner of the car, the strict steward took out a food box and handed it to the little official: "The sauce meat of Linchuan Zhang's shop." ”

The little official opened the food box, and saw that it contained three or four catties of sauce meat, which was fragrant, and he was happy: "Thank you for the strict stewardship." ”

The strict steward patted him on the shoulder: "See what." You and I are both doing things for Liu Gong, and we should think about each other. ”

The little official took the food box and looked at the supplies on the car: "Do you want me to call the wave of people to come and transport this thing?" ”

They also arranged some people in this mining area, and they lived in a relatively remote place on the west side of this mining area, and they mixed in with the miners on weekdays, but no one noticed anything wrong.

At night, he was responsible for transporting the ore mined from the mountain down the mountain, hiding it in one place, and then waiting for the strict steward and others to come and transport the things out privately.

Yan Guan waved his hand: "I don't need them, there are other things left to them to do." ”

He pointed to a few strong men behind him: "Just help me carry things up." ”

He looked around again: "Has the ore from today's mining been brought down?" ”

The little official replied softly: "It's done, it's hiding around here at the moment." The steward is going to ship this storage out of the house today? ”

In the past, the mineral was shipped out every five days.

So far, it's just been two days.

The strict manager bowed slightly: "I have a batch of urgent goods here, and I urgently need minerals, and those who were not in stock before can only be pulled here for emergency first." ”

"Okay."

The wagons he had brought with him were unloaded and were just in time to transport the stuff out.

The strict steward told the strong man behind him to carry the things in the basket up the mountain, while the little official went to a few shacks on the west side, summoned a few people out, and instructed them to load the things into the cart at night.

In the second half of the night, it began to rain in the sky.

After everything was done, the strict manager took people to set up the car and braved the light rain to leave the mining area.

After listening to He Zheng's reply, He Lingjiang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and took care of things strictly?

"Can you see what he looks like?"

He Zheng twisted his eyebrows and thought carefully: "The sky is dark, and my subordinates don't dare to get too close, but I have also seen his appearance." ”

He Lingjiang said "um": "Tomorrow you will draw his general appearance, and we can also send someone to find out where this strict management comes from." ”

He Zheng should have received the order.

Only then did they go back to rest.

The spring thunder was stormy, and at dawn, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the door panel crackled.

He Lingjiang was in a hazy sleep when he heard a quick knock on the door.

Immediately, her eyes opened and she came to her senses.

When he opened the door, the wind outside was wrapped in rain, He Zheng was drenched in the rain, and his face was anxious: "Oh no, Seventh Lady, something happened!" ”
