"Master"

At the foot of the mountain, Chang Geng was carrying two burdens, and the whole person looked dusty, and he should have just arrived.

Xie Lan glanced at the things in his hand, and then talked about the next thing, "You don't have to go back with us, after the things are left, go directly to the mine."

This king has already told Dashan, and he will help you introduce you. ”

Chang Geng nodded in response, and then handed the burden to Tao Yaoyao.

Tao Yaoyao subconsciously caught it, and after Chang Geng left, they walked back, Tao Yaoyao weighed the weight of the burden and guessed what was inside.

They were surprised to appear here, because they had to investigate the iron mine, and they couldn't leave for a while, and they could eat and drink, but they couldn't keep changing their clothes.

Xie Lan is so turtle hair, he must be more particular than her, so Tao Yaoyao guessed that it was the clothes of two people.

"Lord, thank you."

Xie Lan frowned, "What?" ”

Tao Yaoyao shook the burden in his hand in a good mood, "Naturally, thank you for this, but how did I get my clothes Chang Geng?" ”

Won't it ......

"You think too much, these two burdens are the king's clothes."

It's dinner now, there is no one in the village anymore, on the silent path, Xie Lan's voice is exceptionally clear, Tao Yaoyao thought he had heard it wrong at first, and when he came back to his senses, squatted down and put the burden on the ground and quickly opened it, the corners of her mouth twitched as if she was spasmodic.

"Why did you let me hold it if I didn't have anything of mine in it?"

She had taken half of the way, and if she hadn't noticed something was wrong now, wouldn't their master and servant have asked her to take the two burdens back?

A big man actually asked a woman to help carry something.

It's really not human.

"You want to take it yourself, and this king has never forced you."

Xie Lan looked innocent, Tao Yaoyao remembered that when Chang Geng handed her the burden just now, she was extremely subconsciously taking the burden, and she was so angry that she wanted to chop off her hand.

Make your hands cheap.

"Lord Wang's acting skills can be described as the pinnacle." Tao Yaoyao finished his yin and yang weirdness, and after stepping forward angrily and stuffing the other burden in his hand into his arms, he trotted back to the old woman's house.

Hongmei's sister-in-law had already cooked the meal, and seeing that they had not come back, she was about to go out to find them, but who knew that as soon as she came out of the kitchen, she ran back panting.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely wait for you to come back before eating."

"Yes," the old woman fetched water for her to wash her hands and sweat, and when she saw that Xie Lan was nowhere to be seen, she asked, "What about Shiro?" ”

"Acting went."

Tao Yaoyao was still angry, after speaking, she washed her hands casually and went to Qiu Ping's house, when she went in, she listened to the lively house, in addition to the sound of apricot blossoms, there was also a familiar voice......

Peach blossom.

Why is she here?

Tao Yaoyao remembered the situation he had just encountered in the back mountain, and a trace of emptiness quickly flashed in his eyes.

"Ah Zhi, let me introduce you, her name is Peach Blossom, and she is my best friend in the village." Xinghua took Peach Blossom's arm and Tao Yaoyao introduced.

The name Ah Zhi was given by Tao Yaoyao temporarily.

The peach is dying, scorching its glory.

"Hello." Tao Yaoyao reached out to shake hands with Peach Blossom, and only after seeing her puzzled face did she realize that this was not modern, so she quickly withdrew her hand.

"You're so good-looking." Peach Blossom has seen her, because she is so good-looking, that she is impressed by her, and now the people in the village are talking about whose relatives she is, but they didn't expect her to be a relative of Xinghua's family.

"Thank you. You're also good-looking. "From the time she came here to the present, although many people have praised her for her good looks, Tao Yaoyao still doesn't fit in.

Fortunately, at this time, the voice of the old woman came from outside, and after Xinghua heard it, she pulled the peach blossom out to help.

Qiu Ping's sister-in-law's complexion is much better than in the morning, and her pulse has begun to stabilize, but her body is too weak, and she has no milk until now, and now it is Hongmei's sister-in-law who goes next door to borrow milk and comes back for the baby to drink.

In this regard, Qiu Ping was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, although your body is weak, but your foundation is good, wait for me to prescribe some nourishing prescriptions, and you will have milk in a few days."

After seeing the illness, Tao Yaoyao saw Xie Lan helping his sister-in-law serve food, such a cold and dusty person, in this dilapidated courtyard, suddenly gave birth to a burst of fireworks, it was really ...... How strange it looks.

"Shiro, don't be busy, there are so many people at home to help, it's enough." The old woman was reluctant to summon such a good-looking person, and kept urging him to sit down.

Xie Lan didn't speak, but was busy until everyone sat down, and then he sat down.

After watching this scene, Tao Yaoyao didn't know why, the discomfort in his heart suddenly became smooth.

"A-E, when will you and Shiro get married?"

At the dinner table, the old woman suddenly talked about this topic, and Tao Yaoyao was so surprised that she almost dropped her chopsticks, "That...... We're not in a hurry. ”

"It's not good to have no name and no points." The old woman said disapprovingly, "I heard Peach Blossom Niang say that Peach Blossom is going to get married, otherwise, when the time comes, you will touch their joy and get married?" ”

The old woman was kind and felt that the girl's family could not follow a man without a name.

Tao Yaoyao was grateful for her concern, but between her and Xie Lan...... It's a story she told, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to explain the words, and just when she was in a hurry, Peach Blossom's face turned black.

"Auntie, when did my mother tell you that I was going to get married?"

"Just in the morning, when I went out to borrow milk for Xiaobao. You don't know? Your mother said that the day was set, and he was the youngest son of the village chief of the next village. ”

Xinghua Village is surrounded by mountains, and the nearest village that the old woman said is also a day away from Xinghua Village.

The most important thing is that the youngest son of that family is a fool.

The matchmaker nearby helped talk about many people's daughters before, but everyone was reluctant to marry their daughter to a fool, so this marriage never came to fruition.

Xinghua didn't know the news, and they were shocked when they suddenly heard their mother say this.

"How can Peach Blossom marry a fool?"

Seeing that the old woman didn't look like she was lying, Peach Blossom thought of something, put down her chopsticks and ran out, Xinghua was worried about her, so she quickly put down her chopsticks and chased out.

Because of the peach blossom matter, everyone ate hastily and went their own way.

Tao Yaoyao went to the kitchen to help her sister-in-law, and asked about the situation of the peach blossom family during the chat. It turned out that Peach Blossom's father and mother were very patriarchal, and when she was a child, the guys in the family asked her to do it, and now that she is older, she is trying to find a way to find her a rich family.

Now for the sake of silver, even to marry her to a fool.

"You say, does Peach Blossom really like the man named Daqiang...... or does she just want to escape from that home and just give yourself a lifeline?

On the fire, Tao Yaoyao sighed and asked.

Xie Lan was wiping a dagger with a handkerchief, he didn't say anything about Tao Yaoyao's words, and after he finished wiping the dagger, he got up and left, and he didn't come back until Tao Yaoyao got up from a nap.

Xinghua is back, and this will be in the house with the old woman scolding the peach blossom family.

"Brother Da Qiang is worse than that fool, just because of a little bride price, can they marry their daughter to a fool?" Xinghua was indignant, "Besides, Brother Da Qiang is now the manager of the mine, and with his ability, maybe he will have even greater ability in the future." ”

Wait a minute, this Li Daqiang is actually working in the mine, and he is still a steward?

When Xie Lan came back in the evening, Tao Yaoyao told him the news.

"I already know." In the afternoon, Xie Lan went to the mine, and he saw Li Daqiang there, "He is not only the steward there, according to Chang Gung, he also knows a person named Gao Yuan, who is in charge of iron ore." ”

In other words, Li Daqiang is very likely to know who is behind the iron ore mining, and even if he doesn't know, they can use him to quickly find out who is behind the scenes.

It's just that this Li Daqiang shouldn't be easy to buy.

"Wealth touches people's hearts." Xie Lan sneered, "Li Daqiang is a smart person, he will know how to do it." ”

"You mean ......"

Tao family

"Master, our people still haven't found the eldest lady."

The housekeeper took people out to look for a whole day, and he didn't even find the figure of the eldest lady, but ......

"What did you find? Let's put it bluntly. Tao Shi'an looked irritable, it was so quiet last night, he thought she had finally stopped, but now it seems that she went outside to mess around.

She doesn't look at her identity, if she is known by the palace, she is shameless, and the Tao family will have a face.

"Back to the master, when the servant led people to look for the young lady, he found that the people of the third prince were also looking for our young lady."

"Why did he suddenly become preoccupied with the untimely death?" Tao Shi'an felt that there was something going on, "Have you asked someone to inquire." ”

The housekeeper nodded, "The population around the third prince is extremely strict, and the old slave didn't hear anything at first, but then the old slave saw that the second lady took the maid to find the third prince......"

When Tao Shi'an heard this, a flash of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Later, the old slave waited for the second lady to come back, and then went to find the maid next to the second lady to inquire, and the slave heard that the eldest lady did not run out by herself, but ...... Instead, he was forced to jump off the cliff by the third prince. ”

"What?"

Even if Tao Shi'an doesn't want to see this daughter again, it is also his own flesh and blood, not to mention, he still expects her to be the prince's father-in-law.

Now that she is dead, how can he still become a relative of the imperial family?

"The third prince is so bold, even if he doesn't look at the face of the Tao family, isn't he afraid of the anger of the Chu family?" Tao Shi'an stood up angrily, "The old man will enter the palace and let His Majesty give justice to my Tao family." ”

Tao Shi'an said, he was about to go out, but when the housekeeper saw this, he hurriedly ran forward to stop him, "Master, you can indeed go to the palace, but we have no evidence, what if the third prince denies it?"

Don't forget, my majesty, the most painful thing for Your Majesty is this third prince. If the master's grievances are not sued, and he is finally overshadowed by the three princes, what will His Majesty think of the master? ”
