Chapter 81: Family Meeting Qingyang Changes
"I've seen the master!"
"I've seen the master!"
"Good morning, husband!"
"Husband!"
"Daddy~"
Zhong Yan walked all the way to the No. 9 courtyard, hugged his daughter Zhong Jining to the main hall and sat down, and a group of family members gathered one after another.
The warbler under the hall is Yanyan, with a bright smile and a huge team.
Except for the spring rain in the third room, all of them are here, and there are two more unfamiliar faces.
There is also the third room of the Li Mansion in the crowd, that is, Li Jingqiu's biological mother, and the mother and daughter are really like a pair of sisters when they stand together.
Zhong Yan whispered to Jiang Ping, kissed her daughter on the face, and asked with a doting smile in her eyes: "It's so early, why doesn't Ning'er sleep more?" ”
The little guy stretched out his little finger and pointed at Xia He, and said in a whuffy voice: "It's all to blame on my mother, how warm is the bed, Ning'er is still dreaming, what a big sika deer is holding a peach blossom cake for me......"
As she spoke, she also opened her little short arms and gestured.
There was a coquettish laugh.
Xia He gave a roll of his eyes, and said with an angry smile: "Brother and brother are up, you are embarrassed to lie in bed, are you ashamed!" The plan of the day lies in the morning, if you don't read and read well, let alone peach blossom cake, you won't be given food! ”
"Daddy~" The little guy's eyes were full of grievances, and his little head drilled into Zhong Yan's arms, coquettish.
"Eat, eat peach blossom cake every day!"
Zhong Yanle sighed in his heart, I have to say that blood is thicker than water, and he is not sensible before he grows, and he is still very close after not seeing him for a long time.
"It's cold in winter, and the children want to sleep, so it's okay to sleep a little longer."
"Yes, husband."
The little guy immediately turned his head and stuck out his tongue to make a grimace, which made his biological mother Xia He amused and speechless.
Not long after, the maids entered the hall with their children one by one, and rushed to Zhong Yan one after another, calling 'Daddy'.
A teasing inquiry, childlike words, the joy of family is not cheerful.
It didn't take long.
Three figures walked briskly into the hall.
Li Yang's Yingying owed, "Liu Er has seen uncle!" ”
The brothers Li Shangwu and Li Shangwen knelt down and saluted, "The child greets his father-in-law (uncle)!" ”
"Excuse me!"
Everyone gathered together and laughed and laughed.
When Jiang Ping led Yu Qing in, Zhong Yan handed over the youngest son to the maid and motioned to take a group of children down.
"It's all your own people, sit down and we'll have a meeting."
Yu Qingyao looked around at the crowd, her face was strange, I am what kind of 'own person' do you have, but after thinking about it, I am a guest of Zhongfu, and it seems that I am also counted.
"Tell me about this time."
Everyone looked at each other, Jiang Ping looked at Dongcao and smiled, "Sister Dongcao will come first." ”
"Yes."
Winter grass gets up.
"Husband Qi, this year's total income is 21,962 25 yuan and 2 miles, of which Yuelai Restaurant ......"
"Some of the fragmentary accounts of the two restaurants have not yet been settled, about 1,830 taels, and the land rents of several villages and towns in Hubei Village need to wait for the spring sowing next year before collecting ......."
"The total expenditure is more than 45,000 taels, and most of it is used for martial arts expenses and personal exchanges, including ......"
"The accounts have been submitted to the eldest sister for review, with the help of several sisters-in-law of the Li Mansion, the business is currently booming everywhere, and Dongcao will make persistent efforts to make a profit in the coming year."
One thing is said to be more fragrant, and there is no need for a ledger The roster is very detailed.
Zhong Yan nodded again and again when he heard this, "Dongcao is good, you will be the official housekeeper of Zhongfu in the future, all money and silver goods will be dispatched by you in a unified manner, you can find two sisters to help you, and capable maids will also do!" ”
"Yes, Xie Fujun trusts!"
Afterwards, Zhong Xiaozhong bowed and said: "Master Qiqi, the total number of martial arts hall disciples is one hundred and thirteen, according to your requirements, they are all under the age of twenty, the youngest is nine years old, and they are all already beginners, and the highest realm forging body is at the peak of the eightfold ......"
"The war of Wei has stalemate, Yan State, Chen State, Wu State, You Ye State and Wei State Alliance Army have been in peace talks for two months, according to the news of the City Lord's Mansion, the uneven distribution of profits will be fought again at the beginning of the year......
"The city lord's mansion has collected a large number of displaced refugees, and is building three market towns outside the west city as attached cities, with a population of more than 1.5 million, if you count the people in the villages and towns under its jurisdiction, the population has reached nearly four million, and Qin Ben has gone to the Cambodian capital to declare the ...... of the big city sequence."
"A large number of warriors and monks have poured into the city, and the highest level of martial artists in the city is congenital, and the number of monks is nearly two hundred, many of them should be scattered cultivators from the Wei State, among which there are eight more people in the late stage of qi refining, and there are ...... who have not registered with the city lord's mansion."
"Yang Yanqing is suspected of breaking through to the ninth layer of qi refining, and six family guests in the middle of qi refining have been added to the mansion......"
"Master Bai broke through to the eighth layer of qi refining, and he made a move in the Eastern District two months ago, and killed a sixth-layer qi refining monk on the street, the reason was that the man chewed his tongue and said that master, you bully your brother's family business, wife and daughter......"
"There is accurate news in Yangquanfang City, and an auction will be held in 'Wangliufang City' in March next year, bringing together monks from Qingyang, Wangqi, and Heishui......"
Zhong Yan listened quietly, Qingyang has changed a lot this year, and the key is naturally caused by the war in neighboring Wei.
As for being said to be occupying a friend's wife.
The mouth of others, inevitably.
Anticipate it and ignore it.
After Zhong Xiaozhong finished speaking, he retreated, Yan Sandao looked at Zhong Yan's lips and moved, a little hesitant.
"Three knives have something to say."
"Husband, the official roads outside the city gathered in patches of displaced people everywhere before, and the city lord's mansion and the ten thousand halls were too busy for a while, so the concubine took matters into her own hands and secretly selected a thousand people to settle in Fuyang Town.
All of them are young and strong under the age of thirty, most of them are teenagers, and they have confirmed, they have not tested the spiritual root qualifications, husband, do you want to test them, see if they can touch one or two, if there is no concubine, then give some silver money. ”
Zhong Yan's eyes lit up, although the probability of a thousand people was a little smaller, but he also had some hope, "It's a good job, I'll go there myself when I find time." ”
Jiang Ping waited for a while, but when she didn't see her husband speak again, she got up and said, "Husband, as of yesterday, this year, a total of more than 9,600 catties of various demon beast meat, 870 catties of demon beast blood, and medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits have been consumed...... First-Order Talisman ...... The total amount of discounted expenses was about 573 spirit stones. ”
Hearing this, Yu Qingyao's beautiful eyes widened, she gasped, and her delicate body trembled with shock.
Nearly 600 spirit stones are actually spent on eating and drinking, martial arts practice, and favors and gifts.
If you add Zhong Yan's own cultivation needs, how much will you have to go?!
And these are really just handed over to a mortal wife to take care of.
Jiang Ping continued: "The day before yesterday, the City Lord's Mansion sent someone to send you as a subordinate mage, fifteen lower-grade spirit stones, plus three bottles of eighteen Qi Condensing Pills and medicinal materials worth about three spirit stones......"
"This year, the Yang Mansion sent a total of about twenty spirit stones such as pills and spiritual materials, and Cheng Mansion Cheng Immortal Master sent two bottles of Qi Condensing Pill ......."
"Husband, during your retreat, the City Lord's Mansion sent an invitation to invite you to a banquet, and twenty-six immortal masters including Bai Xianshi and Liu Xianshi each came to visit once, and the concubine refused on the grounds that you were in retreat......"
The three people of the Li Mansion in the hall were stunned when they heard this, and they looked at each other and exchanged glances.
In the past, when Li Henian was here, the goods related to the monks of the Li Mansion were handled by Li Henian himself, without the hands of others.
Although he had long known that the status of the family members of the Zhong Mansion was surprisingly high, he didn't expect it to be so high.
At this moment, even they had the privilege of participating in hearing so much of the most important information.
For a while, the three of them felt infinite emotion in their hearts, and they were quite moved, and they had a sense of trust and recognition.
Yu Qingyao was also in a complicated mood, it was only a few months of retreat, and there was an endless stream of monks and visitors at home.
It's like her family, a friend walks around a year, and she is still a mortal - Jiang Ping.
Unconsciously.
Yu Qingyao looked at the man who was sitting at the head, and saw his handsome and extraordinary face, bright starry eyes, listening to the report, his fingers kept tapping on the table, as if he was thinking about something.
The serious look is charming.
One can't help but want to reach out and touch the angular face to see if there are really stars hidden in his eyes.
Suddenly.
Eyes together.
Yu Qingyao hurriedly lowered her head, her pretty face appeared red, a deer in her heart slipped on her heels, and she got up and ran wildly.
