Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Abacus

Finally appeased King Lu, who almost blew up his hair for the backyard, it was already late when Ying Changshi went out again, and King Lu originally left him to eat, but Ying Changshi was worried about Ying Chao's affairs, or euphemistically refused, and when he went out to look at the sky, he boarded the sedan chair that came to pick him up at home.

When I got home, the lanterns were already lit up, and the house was quiet.

When he got off the sedan chair, there was no one from the inner courtyard to pick him up, so he was a little unaccustomed to it, after all, at this time before, Mrs. Ying had already sent the mother-in-law from the inner courtyard to help him take care of everything.

Mrs. Ying has really done her best in the affairs of the family for so many years, and she has handled everything very properly, and now she is picking on her, which shows that today's incident really makes her sad.

Ying Changshi was angry in his heart, but when he thought of the words he had said to persuade King Lu, he squinted his eyes again.

That's it, I know that I know how to persuade King Lu to deal with the affairs of the inner court, can't I do it myself?

He doesn't have the same identity as King Lu, not to mention that Mrs. Ying has served her in-laws for the rest of her life all these years, and she has kept the double filial piety of her in-laws, and she has left her children and sent her sister-in-law to marry.

is reasonable, if something happens to Mrs. Ying, the face of the family will not be able to pass.

What civil servants value is a reputation and face.

Ying Changshi figured out the pros and cons in a short time, and when he looked up again, he was a good husband again, and went to Mrs. Ying's yard in person.

Mrs. Ying's courtyard was also quiet, and when he walked to the door, the people below hurriedly came over and said to him, "Master, Mrs. has fallen asleep." ”

Going to bed so early?

Ying Changshi frowned: "Settled so early?" ”

The mother-in-law laughed with her: "Yes, my wife is not very well, and she didn't even eat dinner, so she went into the house and lay down." ”

Ying Changshi waved his hand and asked his mother-in-law to go down, and he went straight into the house.

Hearing the movement, Mrs. Ying turned over and lay face in, but she didn't hear it.

Ying Changshi sat down beside her and sighed: "Madame knows that I am angry for a while, is it possible that she really annoys me and never pays attention to this family anymore?" ”

He lowered his head, and Mrs. Ying's grievances couldn't bear it even more, turned over and sat up and asked him: "Who annoyed whom?" I know that the lord is now a celebrity in front of the prince, and he wants the best in everything, and my wife of the scumbag is naturally about to go to court. ”

She is really sad, recently Ying Changshi has seen that he has become more and more reused by King Lu, and as people gain power, their requirements for the family are getting higher and higher, and everything is a nose and eyes.

Even if you don't have the idea of changing your wife for the time being, you will have to do it after a while.

Ying Changshi sighed, and patiently comforted her: "What nonsense are you talking about?" Am I someone like Chen Shimei? The reason why I'm angry today is because Ah Chao, he is really getting more and more disagreeable, and he heard some bad things outside, so he felt a little uncomfortable, which will implicate you, but if I really have anything dissatisfied with you, it is absolutely nothing, if there is, I myself will not be able to live with my ancestors and children first, even if you don't believe in my character, you should also believe in my brain, right? ”

This is true.

Ying Changshi is the most self-disciplined person, he attaches great importance to his future, and he will not risk his future if he takes any risks.

Mrs. Ying's heart was pressed by the discomfort, but in the end, she still took the handkerchief in Ying Changshi's hand, wiped the corners of her eyes, and asked with a sob: "What happened to Ah Chao?" He hasn't been home yet. ”

Ying Changshi, who asked this question, didn't know how to answer, thinking that his younger brother hadn't returned home yet, his heart was even heavier.

Where Ying Chao went, others didn't know, he knew it.

I haven't gone home yet, but I'm afraid that the Feng family has detained people.

This is the last thing he wants to see, but if it happens, he has to find another way.

At this time, he shook his head: "I have already asked Luo Ping'an to go out to look for it, it's so late, presumably Luo Ping'an is almost back, you get up first, I haven't eaten in the palace yet." ”

After losing her temper, Mrs. Ying had returned to normal at this time, and when she heard that Ying Changshi hadn't eaten yet, she hurriedly gathered her hair and called her mother-in-law in, and ordered in a loud voice: "Go to the kitchen quickly and let them relight the fire." Thinking that it was too late now, and I was afraid that it would take me a lot of effort to cook again, so I frowned and said, "Okay, I'll go by myself." ”

She used to take care of the housework by herself, but now she is not too accustomed to it, and she is afraid that the people below will not be able to tell, so she plans to simply cook noodles for him herself.

Ying Changshi saw that he had appeased his wife, so he went to the front yard again.

Luo Ping'an had really returned, and was waiting under the corridor, and when he saw him, he was busy calling the master.

Ying Changshi motioned for him to enter the house and said, and when he entered the house, he asked, "Have you found anyone?" ”

Luo Ping'an followed a few steps step by step, and bent down cautiously and respectfully: "Master, the little one took people to the place where the second master frequented, and the tavern teahouse and the gambling house were all gone, and some people said that they did see the second master in the gambling house in the east of the city yesterday, but then the second master didn't know where to go." ”

It's still no different from what I said, people still can't find it.

Ying Changshi has now guessed that eighty percent of the people have been taken away by the Feng family, so he lowered his eyes and sighed.

He walked to the back of the desk and sat down, there were a lot of things that had happened in the past few days, and he thought about it in his heart before he thought of the Feng family.

Originally, he planned to rely on this matter to squeeze Master Feng from the position of the Weaving Department, so that he could be replaced by someone from King Lu's side.

But now it seems that this matter is afraid that it will not be done.

If you can get Ying Chao away, it must be something wrong with Feng Tianyou.

This kind of gentleman is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and he really can't do anything.

It's just that the person fell into the hands of the Feng family, but Ying Changshi didn't worry about what would be involvedβ€”at best, Feng Tianyou could correct Ying Chao for gambling money.

As for other things, such as the idea of killing his sister and marrying his adoptive brother, it was Feng Tianyou's own idea.

Even if it is in court, Ying Changshi is not afraid.

Ying Chao is actually a gentleman, similar to Feng Tianyou, but he has never really told him anything or given him anything, and he can't tell why.

It is impossible for the Feng family to rely on the government to convict Ying Chao.

They didn't dare to make trouble with the official mansion-β€”β€” but it was Feng Tianyou who did something wrong, and if they went to the official mansion, this matter was successful.

Even if Ying Chao is really sentenced to exile or something, it can be regarded as a meritorious service, and there are a hundred ways to get people out and be exempted from punishment at that time.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Ying Changshi's face.
