Li Xiangcui agreed repeatedly, ran out to look around and found the well, carried water to the stove room, and found the bathing room with the work of boiling water.

Just as she was bathing, Li Jingrui passed by here and came in to check.

"Big brother! Xiangcui found it. Li Jinghe said when he met.

Li Jingrui said coldly: "Send it back, don't make trouble." ”

"Big brother?" Li Xiangcui had just entered the door when she heard this sentence and called out tentatively.

Li Jingrui took a deep breath and turned around, and saw Li Xiangcui coming over with red eyes, and knelt on the ground obediently: "It's a shame that you found here, they are all compatriots, get up." ”

"Yes." Li Xiangcui got up and stepped back to the side, lowering her head and pinching the placket of her clothes.

Li Jingrui's brows twisted into a pimple: "Let you serve by the county lord's side, can't let her know that we are brother and sister, can you do it?" ”

Li Xiangcui hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, don't worry, the slave maid was serving the old lady in the Cao Mansion before, and she understands the rules." ”

"Okay." Li Jingrui told him like this, and let Li Xiangcui figure it out for herself, if she can enter the mansion, she will stay, and if she can't get in, she will find another way.

Li Xiangcui felt like a dream at this moment, but she was a little dissatisfied in her heart, obviously the eldest brother has become a nobleman, but she still wants to be a slave, what can she do? I have no other way to go.

Li Jingrui looked at the accounts, asked Li Jinghe to deposit all the silver in the bank, and after checking the spices in the warehouse, he called Li Xiangcui to him: "How is the Fang family's spice trading doing?" ”

"It's amazing, when I came, Fang Jing'an saved the old lady, and Fang Qingjing fell in love with Mrs. Cao, but the Fang family refused to care about us." Li Xiangcui told the matter of Qinghe Mansion again, and asked tentatively at the end: "Master Junma, if Sister Ah really goes to her mother and son, what should she do?" ”

Li Jingrui looked at Li Xiangcui, not to mention anything else, he did learn a lot of rules in Cao's Mansion, and he was also clever, as for whether Li Xiangzhi would be left by the Cao family, can he take care of it?

There is nothing on the table, and there is no one who can get close to the Fang family is person who has obtained the incense recipe!

"You don't have to." Li Jingrui got up and left, he wanted to buy spices from the Fang family again, but others couldn't do it, so he could only go to Feng Zhong.

When he came to the door of Feng Zhong's house, he found that the building had already been empty, and he grinded his teeth secretly, Taohong was too ignorant of lifting, he thought of accepting her, wouldn't it be better to follow him than to be a minion? but also staged a drama with himself who swore to the death, if it weren't for the county lord's obedience to his words, the bad things would have to be bad because of Taohong's ignorance.

On the way back, Li Jingrui always felt that something was wrong, without Feng Zhong, who could connect with the Fang family again? At this time, it is not appropriate for the Li family to come forward, and it seems that they have to find a capable person.

As soon as I arrived in the mansion, I saw the relatives of the prince waiting, and when I saw the relatives walking in front of him, Li Jingrui stopped first, very easy-going and slightly bowed, there were two relatives around the king of Jin, who followed the king of Jin when he was a child, one was called Yuan Liang, the other was called Wen Sheng, and it was Yuan Liang who met him head-on, for the people in the palace, Li Jingrui was a little unambiguous and careful to pay attention to it, this Yuan Liang was in charge of the accounts by the side of the prince, and he was a more powerful person than the head of the palace.

"Master Junma, the prince invites you to come to the study." Yuan Liang made a gesture of please very respectfully.

Li Jingrui spoke up: "There is Uncle Lao Liang." ”

This sound of Uncle Liang was in his ears, Yuan Liang couldn't help but look at Li Jingrui twice, and led the way in front without making a sound.

King Jin is still reading the book, Li Jingrui came in and saluted respectfully, since the last time he was beaten, Li Jingrui has never leaned on King Jin's side, this time it is much better than last time, King Jin saw Li Jingrui salute, put down the book and said: "Sit down." ”

"Yes." Li Jingrui sat respectfully on the chair, it was very cold in the winter in the capital, and there was not even a charcoal stove in the study.

King Jin copied his sleeves and asked lightly: "How is the Ministry of Industry now?" ”

"Back to my father, after returning from Shangshu, I was discussing how to build an embankment, and Hubu Shangshu also came a few times, and the people were seriously affected, and the epidemic was raging from time to time, and many lives were injured." Li Jingrui said.

King Jin raised his eyebrows: "Hasn't the imperial court already provided disaster relief?" ”

"Yes, the imperial court issued a decree for disaster relief and let the grain depots in various places open warehouses, and now they should have been received everywhere." Li Jingrui said.

King Jin lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before saying, "Hui Min has been making trouble these days?" ”

"Back to my father, Hui Min knows that you have a loving heart, how can you still make trouble, when you wanted to move out, you were afraid of outsiders gossiping, knowing that you are willing to let us continue to live in the house, I am happy in my heart." Li Jingrui coped cautiously.

King Jin didn't move for a long time, and Li Jingrui didn't dare to raise his head, thinking that he had something to do for himself, otherwise how could he let himself come to the study?

Yuan Liang came in with hot tea, King Jin glanced at it lightly, watched Yuan Liang put the tea down, and then said: "I heard that the spice shop you opened outside is booming, it is rare to have this thought, there is a three-in and three-out house in Dongcheng for you to live in, and now you are of low grade, and the house is too big and is criticized." ”

"Father, isn't it appropriate for my son-in-law to live here?" Li Jingrui looked up at King Jin pitifully, not to mention how happy he was, the water in King Jin's Mansion was too deep, and he didn't want to be trapped here, but he had to do enough to look good.

King Jin took a sip of tea: "When you go back to the Ministry of Industry and ask you to go out to check the disaster situation in various places, do things well, and arrange two people around you, and you can take out part of the food, but you have to figure out how to take it." ”

Li Jingrui knelt down: "Yes, the son-in-law obeys the order, father, if it is so arranged, Hui Min lives in the house outside, and the son-in-law can't rest assured." ”

"Go back, lest she make a fuss in the yard all day long and move out to live your little life." King Jin waved his hand and drove people away.

Li Jingrui could only leave, and on the way back, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, Lord Huimin was spoiled! If you don't move out and think about another idea, what's the fuss in the yard?

One foot in the door and one foot outside the door, I heard the movement of the tea cup breaking, and the voice of the county lord Huimin was full of anger: "Useless bastard thing! I can't even make a cup of tea, what do I do with my hands? Pull it out and cut it! ”

When the words fell, the two mothers-in-law came out of the house with the little girl ring whose forehead was smashed into snow beads, and the little girl was trembling, and she couldn't cry anymore.

"Stop." Li Jingrui stopped her mother-in-law.

The little girl knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately: "Lord Horse, help, help." ”
