Chapter 81: I am even more angry at my own powerlessness
Ye Shi arched his hand, his voice was calm, "The master is serious, I have followed the master since I was young, and now the predicament of the Meng family, the master is in need of people, but I am not there. I also want to thank the master, in fact, the dog is fine to rush to the exam alone, I have already arranged a resident for him in Kyoto, how can I leave at this time.......
His face was serious and unsmiling, although his tone did not have much gratitude, but Meng Xing knew that what he said was not adulterated at all.
Meng Xing patted him on the shoulder, "Old man, I value you, it's not easier to go to Kyoto than Jiangnan City, you can bring some more people over."
"Yes, don't worry, sir, I understand." Ye Shi didn't ask much, and bent down again.
At this time, Qingshan knocked on the door and came in, "Master, the pawnshop is in the water."
Meng Xing's face changed, he glanced at Ye Shi, and hurriedly followed Qingshan out.
Meng Zhiyi hadn't gone far yet, when he saw the three of them walking hurriedly, he ordered Dong Solstice, "You go and find out the situation."
Winter Solstice nodded and went back the other way.
Meng Zhiyi did not go back to Zhiyi Courtyard, but came to the back kitchen.
Bai Shao was washing vegetables, and saw Meng Zhiyi's figure standing outside from a distance, explained to the people around him, wiped his hands and came to Meng Zhiyi's side.
Meng Zhiyi walked to the back garden, and after a while, Bai Peony appeared behind the rockery.
"Miss, what do you have to say?"
Meng Zhiyi stretched out his hand to hold a purple chrysanthemum that was about to wither, and said softly: "Jinlou has earned enough money, this year's year is not good, who has the silver to send there?"
Bai Shao thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I know someone."
Meng Zhiyi straightened his waist and glanced at Bai Shao standing behind the rockery, and found that she never looked directly into Meng Zhiyi's eyes, and always lowered her eyes when she spoke, looking humble and introverted.
Meng Zhiyi's eyes fell on the hands of her folded in front of her abdomen, the cuffs were slightly pulled up, and the cold water that was about to enter winter soaked her hands white, and her fingertips were red.
Meng Zhiyi said, "Your hands shouldn't be washing vegetables in the back kitchen."
Bai Shao smiled disapprerovingly, "Everything you do is doing things, it's all the same."
Zhiyi-in.
When Meng Zhiyi went back, he found that Zhang Huwei was standing outside the courtyard, obviously injured, but still standing straight.
"Miss." He greeted Meng Zhiyi with a fist.
Meng Zhiyi walked over to him and stopped, "What's the matter with you?"
Zhang Huwei lowered his head, "Thank you for your care, my injuries have scabbed, but I'm done."
"Less of your wages?" Meng Zhiyi twisted his eyebrows.
Guard Zhang shook his head, "No, it's uncomfortable just lying down, it's better to stand, anyway, it's just guarding in the outer courtyard."
After a pause, he whispered, "Gu Liang is gone. I went to Xu's house and never came out again."
The Xu family has repeatedly failed, Xu Zerong must have found a person to vent, and Gu Liang, who was in charge of Cao Yun, first exposed his stuffing to the scorpion, and Xu Guang of Bei'an County implicated him again, he could not escape the blame, so he could only be cannon fodder.
"Go find someone to meet those henchmen under Gu Liang for a while, and see if there is any gain." After Meng Zhiyi finished speaking, he added, "Let the others go, don't run away."
"Yes, thank you for your concern."
Den.
Although Lu Nanfeng was listening to Xuan Wu's report, his other ear inevitably heard a few words coming from the courtyard outside. It can also be heard that Meng Zhiyi cares about the guard very much, and the guard thanked him several times.
"The Xu family also tried their best to save the grain that entered the canal, but most of it was also fished back by the Meng family and given to the people who helped along the banks of the river. However, the Meng family's Zheng guard should be fine, and he cooperated with the arrester at that time and hid."
Xuan Wu squatted under the window and suppressed a very low voice, "That one had a big fire in the Zhou family, Zhou Kang was also injured, the news was transmitted back to the Xu family, and the Xu family will also find a way to remedy it, so the Meng family's pawnshop caught fire, and the silver has reached the Golden Building."
Lu Nanfeng asked, "Zhou Yongheng should know about their Zhou family
What are you doing? He's going to inherit the mantle?"
Xuan Wu paused, "Zhou Yongheng knew that the condition for him to inherit the mantle was not to marry the daughter of the Xu family, but Zhou Kang did not agree."
Lu Nanfeng remembered Zhou Yongheng's face every time he saw Meng Zhiyi, and it was not difficult to think of the fundamental reason why he proposed this condition.
"Don't worry about the affairs of the Meng family, the Xu family should also prepare food as much as possible to honor the past, follow it well, and find clues as soon as possible."
"Yes."
Lu Nanfeng closed the window tightly, and wanted to come to the window and sit down, but he picked up the wood, but he unconsciously looked at the courtyard and was distracted. His thoughts drifted away, and Meng Zhiyi seemed to be smiling skillfully, shouting "husband" delicately as he walked.
She seems to have not taken the initiative to come to the study for a long time.
When he came back from the winter solstice, Meng Zhiyi was leaning on the soft couch in a daze, and the ledger on his knees didn't know when it fell to the ground.
She stepped forward to pick up the ledger, and the sound of the pages chattering brought back Meng Zhiyi's attention.
Winter Solstice put away the ledger and put it on the table next to him, and said, "The pawnshop has burned down, and only one person has been burned, and the cause of the fire is that someone's candle has been overturned."
Meng Zhiyi's eyes were cold, "What kind of candle to light in broad daylight." Chinese Net
Dong Zhi also said: "The shops around the pawnshop have also been implicated, and the lord has compensated those people for a lot of losses, and I heard that Feng Xianling is still very angry, saying that the Meng family is disturbing the peace of Jiangnan City, and there are always accidents."
Meng Zhiyi pursed his lips and didn't speak.
The winter solstice filled the hand stove beside Meng Zhiyi with a new charcoal fire, and said angrily: "The weather hasn't been sunny in the past few days, and it rained last night, even if it burns, it can't burn so fast."
Meng Zhiyi didn't have any expression, he wasn't surprised at all, he just asked, "How is the burned person?"
"There is still some breath, I heard that the whole body is on fire, if he hadn't run desperately to the outside of the shop, I'm afraid it would have turned to ashes."
"What about the rest of the shop?"
Meng Zhiyi asked, and Dong Solstice also noticed that something was wrong, "At that time, I saw that there was a fire, and the other people in the shop ran out and went to fetch water, why was that person so slow?"
Meng Zhiyi looked at her expression and knew that she also understood, "Go and ask, it's best to let that person speak, maybe you can get useful news."
Dong Solstice nodded and quickly walked out.
Meng Zhiyi heard that Dong Solstice, who was walking to the door, was stopped by Guard Zhang, and seemed to be asking about things, but Dong Solstice didn't say much.
The Xu family.
Xu Zerong's liver was vigorous, "Feng County's order said that the person was saved by the Meng family, why can't this little thing be done?"
Yu Feng bent down, "Don't worry, the head of the family can't be burned, he only breathes in one breath, and he can't say anything."
Xu Zerong has always trusted the wind, and he is not entangled in this matter, his tone is solemn, "Prepare the silver, and try to get some from other shops, and the food will be in place as soon as possible."
Yu Feng knew that this matter was not trivial, "Yes, family master."
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, it was the sound of Xu Chunrou talking to the guards.
Yu Feng glanced at Xu Zerong and walked out, "Miss."
"Butler Yu, is my father here?" This is a bit of an overkill.
"Yes, Miss let's go in."
When Xu Chunrou pushed the door in, Xu Zerong was reading the letter, and she blessed her body and explained her intentions.
"Dad, I heard that the head of the Zhou family had a sudden illness, and I heard that Zhou Gongzi was going to ........."
Xu Zerong didn't look at her, "Don't worry, he will marry you."
Xu Chunrou bit her lip, "But the Zhou family is not preparing for the wedding, does Dad want to send Lang Zhong over?" I heard that Meng Zhiyi found Lang Zhong to cure her sister before."
Xu Zerong raised his eyelids and glanced at Xu Chunrou, "Then you can do it, but you don't get close to places like Mud Alley."
"My daughter knows." Xu Chunrou happily went.
Chen Po
The feet were naturally not there, and Meng Zhiyi also thought of him for the first time, and when the person who sent him to the mud alley to inquire came back, he also brought back the news that the Xu family's subordinates appeared there.
"Winter solstice, what is the current situation of the Zhou family?"
"It seems to be quieter, but nothing else is unusual." Dong Solstice thought for a while and said, "If the girl doesn't go and ask her uncle, he should know the whereabouts of Doctor Chen."
He naturally knew that it was just that the two of them had been in a cold war for three days, and if she went at this time, wouldn't it make Lu Nanfeng despise how selfish and snobbish he was.
But on the flip side, she did.
"Not necessarily." Meng Zhiyi coldly refused, and asked in a low voice, "What has he been busy with lately?"
"Carve the wood, and turn off the lights every night."
Meng Zhiyi nodded, "Pay attention to the situation of the Zhou family and the Xu family, and let the other Lang Zhong treat that person first."
The winter solstice took people out, and the quiet room made Meng Zhiyi hover a figure in his mind.
Meng Zhiyi couldn't help but think about what happened before, she shouldn't be angry with Lu Nanfeng, she was even more angry about her own powerlessness.
But I don't know why, but she will have a cold war with Lu Nanfeng.
It doesn't seem to be able to say that she is cold, because the two of them are not noisy or noisy, and even they are so angry. We're all smart people.
Thinking like this, Meng Zhiyi came to the courtyard and looked at the depression in the garden.
Autumn has passed before you know it, and the weather will not warm up again.
Meng Zhiyi looked up at the sky covered with a layer of gray cloth, and the cold wind took advantage of her distraction and came to the surface, and she couldn't help but sniff.
Realizing that it was a little cold, Meng Zhiyi hurriedly withdrew his senses, and was about to go in, when he saw Lu Nanfeng coming from the courtyard of the study.
Obviously, if it weren't for the close distance, even if she hid in the house all day long, she would have met it. It was the first time in five days that the two of them had met each other, and their eyes collided in the cold air.
Meng Zhiyi's fingers hidden under the plush cuffs couldn't help curling up, and the tendons of his fingers were also connected to the tendons in his heart, pulling them to both sides.
still has to speak, but the pride of the Meng family's daughter sticks to the two thin pink skins.
