Chapter 20: The Whole City Stirred

The gold box?

Master He was a little confused, the box containing the letter should be made of gold?

However, Master He was soon relieved, after all, she was a girl who had never seen the world, she didn't know that there was wood in this world that was more expensive than gold, and she didn't know that jade was far more precious than gold.

He Ran sympathized with him for three seconds, and at first glance he was a stupid child who grew up in peacetime, and he didn't know that during the war years, for the little people, there was nothing more valuable than gold.

Wood that is more expensive than gold? Is wood still more expensive than gold after being split into sawdust?

Jade? The smashed jade is the slag, and the molten gold is still gold.

King Jin can kill the daughter of the Min family, will it be far from the war? Jin Kang and the capital fought, and the location of Zhending Mansion was very fragrant.

At this time, Yan's voice sounded again: "What are you doing sneaky?" ”

The sneaky person is not He Ran, but a little guy, the little guy is obviously here to report the news, but he is embarrassed and doesn't know who to talk to.

Everyone's eyes turned from He Ran to the little guy, and the little guy was even more panicked, and stammered and said truthfully: "The people from the Shoucai shop are here, and they ...... Say...... Let's give it to the eldest lady...... Lady ......"

Hearing the three words "Shoucai Shop", the old lady's whole body was not good, and the suona sound of that day sounded in her mind again, although her Shoucai had already been prepared to come out, but the elderly people still couldn't hear this.

"What did you say?" The old lady asked.

The little guy was so frightened that his head was sweating, but he still stubbornly said: "People outside are spreading, saying, saying that sooner or later the eldest lady in our house will be killed, I don't know who helped us call the people from the longevity material shop, and also said that the eldest lady brought such a fortune to our house, and it can't be too shabby when she dies, and you have to pick up the most expensive longevity materials to decorate the ......."

At the same time, two little beggars were grabbing dates to eat, and a green bird flew over their heads: "Grandchildren, the time has come, collect money and do things!" ”

A little beggar rushed to stuff the dates into his mouth, chewed and swallowed them three or two times, turned around and ran, shouting as he ran: "The stepmother murdered her stepdaughter for money, and the He family is going to have an unjust case!" ”

Another little beggar spat at his back: "Grab Lao Tzu's dates, why don't you choke to death." ”

He grabbed the broken bowl on the ground and ran in the other direction: "The He family is about to have an unjust case, and the stepmother is murdering for money!" ”

Hmph, I want to come against you, sample, who asked you to rob my dates?

Mama Shi walked to the courtyard where she rented out, and she wanted to go to the official post to see why the letter from the capital hadn't arrived yet.

A little beggar ran past her: "The He family is going to be unjust!" ”

Mama Shi was startled, and made a look, and the maid next to her stepped forward and stopped the little beggar: "You said an unjust case, who is it?" ”

"The He family is about to have an unjust case, and the stepmother is murdering for money!"

The little beggar ran away after shouting, he collected ten streets of money, and now he has only shouted three streets, in a hurry, busy.

Mama Shi's face changed greatly: "Go and inquire, what's going on in the He family?" ”

The maidservant turned around and left, and came back after a while, don't be too easy to inquire about the affairs of the He family, now people are talking about the He family.

"Miss He is not lonely, her adoptive father is the big proprietor of Jinghong Building, and Jinghong Building is her dowry!"

Mama Shi's eyes widened in shock: "Jinghong Building? You mean the Hung Building? How can it be? ”

The maidservant didn't know why Mama Shi, who had always been calm, couldn't hold her breath, she hurriedly said: "The people on the street said that the Jinyi Wei official from the capital asked it personally, and it can't be wrong. ”

"The Jinyi Guard of the capital?" A few thoughts flashed in Mama Shi's heart, and she said to the maidservant, "Don't wait for the letter from the official post, you should hurry back to the capital now and report this matter to Madame!" ”

The maid was not at ease: "Mama, what about the He family, will Miss He really have an accident?" ”

Mama Shi smiled slightly: "Now no one wants to let the eldest lady have an accident more than the He family." ”

Yes, the He family is anxious and angry!

Master He is going to report to the official, these people are too vicious, and the He family has made a fortune, and they even spread rumors that the He family wants to murder their own daughter for money, vicious, too vicious!

"Go to the official, go to the official, my He family's poems and books are heirlooms, innocent as water, they don't want to slander!"

Master He San volunteered to go to the county office, the county government and the government were in the same city, and the county magistrate was cautious, for fear that something would affect the prefect's mood.

The He family reported the case, and the magistrate immediately went to investigate, but nothing was found, only that he heard it from the street, and the people in the Shoucai shop actually heard it through the window, and the people on the street were saying, or the whole street, no, all the people in the streets and alleys of Zhendingfu were arrested and interrogated?

The magistrate made a look, and the master patted the third master on the shoulder: "The third master will go back and talk to the eldest master, and the clear one will clear himself, so that the eldest master He can dissipate his anger and ignore those gossips." ”

Master He has already lost his anger, and there will definitely be people who will be jealous of the windfall from the sky.

He really took He Ran to the largest silver building in Zhending Mansion and made a gold box containing the sealed letter.

He Ran only asked for real gold, and there was no need for any tricks, and the craftsmen of the silver building played it out in two hours.

He Ran was very satisfied, and Master He was also very satisfied, but when he paid the money, he was distressed.

A gold box the size of a child's fist is actually eight two eight!

One tael of gold, ten taels of silver, eight taels of silver is eighty-eight taels of silver, and the total of one hundred taels plus labor costs is one hundred taels!

He Ran put a seal letter into a gold box in front of Master He.

Master He stretched out his hand: "Good daughter, this box is quite heavy, keep it for your father, so as not to let the thief worry about it." ”

He Ran blinked: "Is it okay to hand it over to my father when I get to the capital?" ”

"Beijing? Are you going to the capital? "Master He immediately thought of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, could it be that this girl really wants to take the Jinghong Mansion to marry the Wu'an Hou Mansion?

That Jinghonglou is surnamed Lu, not He.

He Ran is a good and understanding daughter, she didn't want to let Master He be entangled, so she hurriedly said: "Because there is also a Jinghong Building in the capital, which is also my dowry......"

Master He's head was buzzing, that's right, when he went to the capital for the first time, he knew that there was also a Jinghong Building in the capital, but it was not a restaurant, but a silver building!

At that time, he also asked specifically, and it was said that it was just a duplicate name, and it was not the same owner at all.

"You mean that the Jinghong Mansion in the capital and the Zhending Mansion are one family?"

He Ran nodded: "It's all my adoptive father's hard work, and now it's all for me." ”

So she was going to the capital and take back her Jinghong Tower.

Master He laughed, and after laughing, he remembered that he was still on the street.

"Good daughter, you don't have to worry about these trivial matters, go to the capital for your father and take back Jinghong Tower."

"But the Jinghong Building in the capital is different from the Zhending Mansion, there is also an owner, there are two owners, I only account for half, there are some things, I have to go in person." He Ran was timid, she was so worried that her father wouldn't let her go.

Master He was stunned, there are two owners in the Jinghong Building in the capital?

Yes, it must be, that's the capital, and if you can take root in the capital for decades, the water behind it shouldn't be too deep.

No wonder they all say that the capital and the Zhending Mansion are not the same owner, it turns out that there is another person in the owner of the capital, who is that person?

With Master He's many years of experience as an official, you can think of it without asking, and the other owner is either a noble or a high-ranking official!
