Chapter 61 Buying and selling grain and grass, Ding San confessed
In her previous life, she was planted in Yan Mengyue's hands many times, and now she has to guard against this maid beside Yan Mengyue.
"Cloud Nine!"
Seeing her, Lu Xueyao waved her hands happily.
Yun Jiuxi smiled: "What, you want to be lazy again?" β
Lu Xueyao pouted and said, "Who wants to be lazy, I want to tell you, can you send me the apricots." β
Yun Jiuxi smiled and said, "What are you sending it for, and you can't beat and scold?" β
"What do you say?"
Lu Xueyao pouted at the magpie Nunu in front of her: "See, I asked Xing'er to come to keep an eye on that girl, let me tell you, this girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp." β
There is no need for Lu Xueyao to say, Yun Jiuxi also knows.
What kind of master has what kind of maid, this magpie really has to be guarded against.
"It's not impossible to send it, but you have to promise that from now on, you can't beat and scold Xing'er at will."
As soon as she agreed, Lu Xueyao's eyebrows curled: "My maid, I don't hurt anyone, you can rest assured." β
"Okay, I'll bring people with me when I'm out in the next few days."
"Hmm."
Lu Xueyao nodded beautifully.
Don't say that the more Yun Jiu gets along, the more temper he gets.
Neither of them saw it, and the magpie hiding in the shadows saw this scene with excitement shining in his eyes.
When did Miss Lu change her personality and fall in love with this kind of little white face.
What a surprise!
I don't know about this, but the prince can know.
......
Outside the tent, someone said, "Father-in-law, Ding San is here." β
Father-in-law Wei glanced at the person who came and saw that this young man was the person he had seen that night.
But it's easy for him to find.
"Little Ding San greets the adults."
Gonggong Wei took a sip of the teacup, and said unhurriedly: "Ding San, do you know why the miscellaneous family called you?" β
Ding San shook his head.
Early this morning, he was intercepted by an attendant, saying that someone had summoned him and came here to take a look, and it was his father-in-law who came from the capital that day.
A father-in-law sent someone to summon him, but I don't know why.
"Ding San, how old are you this year?"
Seeing his pleasant face, Ding San's heart was a little relieved: "The little one is sixteen this year." β
Gonggong Wei nodded: "How long have you been in the army?" β
"Half... Half. β
"Is there anyone else in the house?"
Ding San opened his mouth and said, "There is also an old lady and a younger brother. β
"Who stole the grain and grass in the army?"
"It's ......"
As soon as the words came out, Ding San suddenly stopped, and when he looked up, he found that the person who was still pleasant just now was a little sharper between his eyebrows and eyes.
"Well, say it, the miscellaneous family knows it, don't be afraid to say it, say it, the miscellaneous family will make the decision for you."
Ding San had fear in his eyes, and he subconsciously shook his head: "The little one doesn't know what the adults say, and the little ones don't know anything." β
"Well, I don't know?"
With a snap, Gonggong Wei put the teacup on the table heavily, and he got up and bent over.
"There are people in the barracks who sell grain and grass, you know this."
"I... Little ones don't know! β
Seeing that Ding San gritted his teeth and refused to let go, Gonggong Wei got up and withdrew his orchid finger and paced back and forth.
This is a good opportunity to be able to grasp the king of the owl, if this matter is done well, it will definitely be a great achievement when he goes back.
Thinking of this, Gonggong Wei turned around suddenly, with a smile on his face, and asked, "I've been in the army for so long, I should miss my wife at home, right?" β
Ding San couldn't figure out the purpose of this adult, so he could only keep silent.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Gonggong Wei raised his orchid finger and sighed: "Poor one,"
"Do you want your wife to live a good life?"
Seeing that Ding San was still indifferent, Gonggong Wei clapped his hands, and soon someone sent a tray covered with red cloth.
Tearing off the red cloth, a tray full of silver, Ding San's eyes straightened.
"This ......"
"It's all yours."
Gonggong Wei pushed the tray as he spoke, motioning for Ding San to take it.
Ding San stepped forward, wanted to reach out and touch it, but retracted it again, swallowed his saliva, and looked at him in disbelief: "Really for me?" β
Gonggong Wei nodded: "As long as you are willing to say, these are all yours." β
Hearing that he had to say about the military rations himself, Ding San was a little hesitant.
If this matter is poked out, it will be a big thing to lose your head.
But so much silver......
His eyes greedily swept over a plate full of silver, so many, there must be hundreds of taels.
He had never seen so much silver.
With this silver, his mother and brother can live a good life.
Didn't he join the army just to earn that little money every month, so that he could go back to honor his mother?
Thinking of this, Ding San's mind became active again.
However, who is this father-in-law, and why does he care so much about grain and grass?
"If the little one tells the adult, can the adult spare those people's lives?"
What a naΓ―ve!
Reselling military rations is a big crime, not to mention these little minions, even the king of the owl has to follow the bad luck.
At the thought of being able to pull the King of Owl off the altar, Gonggong Wei panted with excitement.
"Don't worry, our family just wants to understand this matter, but it won't be so serious as you said."
"That's good, that's good......"
Looking at the silver again, Ding San finally made up his mind.
"The little one knows that there are people buying and selling grain and grass, and that group of people has been doing this for a long time."
Father-in-law Wei was overjoyed, and hurriedly spread out his pen and ink and said, "Quick, tell everyone you know." β
After half a cup of tea, several names fell on the paper.
Looking at the positions of these people, Gonggong Wei felt that something was wrong, they were all small soldiers, and the highest position was only a hundred households, how could this person come into contact with grain and grass?
"Anyone else?"
Ding San shook his head.
This kid is just a small shrimp, and he knows very little.
Rao is so, and it is enough.
"Okay, you know what happened today, and when you get out of here, you must rot into your stomach."
"Yes, yes, little one understands!"
Ding San said, his eyes fixed on the silver.
Grandpa Wei waved his hand: "It's all yours." β
Ding San was overjoyed, hugged all the silver into his arms, and smiled with a flattering face: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" β
Stuffing the silver into his arms, Ding Sanmei left.
After he left, a small chamberlain beside Gonggong Wei stepped forward and asked, "My lord, do you want a small ......?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck, and Gonggong Wei shook his head: "This is a military camp, don't startle snakes." β
As he spoke, he looked at the names on the paper, shook his head, and said, "It's just some small fish and shrimp." β
"My lord, then we ......"
"You go, keep an eye on this man."
The chamberlain wrote down the names of the people pointed out by Gonggong Wei, nodded and left.
Leaving the camp, he hadn't walked a few steps when Ding San happened to meet Yun Jiuxi, who had returned from the medical office.
Seeing him, Ding San subconsciously wanted to hide.
But Yun Jiuxi didn't let him get his wish, and rushed to him in one step, opening his arms to stop him: "You stop!" β
Ding San stiffened, clutched the silver in his arms, and barely squeezed out a smile: "Yes... It's you. β
