Accumulate Wealth in Life

Chapter 43: Red House (43)

Red House (43)

Leng Zixing's accident happened almost overnight. No one knew what was going on, whether it was someone who was offended. All I know is that the yamen caught a robber from Jiang Yang, and they confessed to Leng Zixing.

The daughter of Zhou Rui's family cried uncontrollably: "In that day, it was my father who said that he was a capable person. Now he has the ability, but that is the ability to beheaded. How can he be born now?"

"Don't cry first, it's useless to cry. Besides, you only blame us, why don't you think about how well you have lived in the past few years, that is also the life of a virtuous young lady. Besides, these years, Isn't the son-in-law under your nose? You should know if he has any connection with those Jiangyang thieves. Why did he mess up first." Zhou Rui's family only persuaded his daughter, and then turned to Zhou Rui to wink, "You are First go to the yamen to find out what the regulations are. If you can spend money, you can do it first. I will go to the wife in a while, take the post and finish the matter. "

Zhou Rui touched the silver from the cabinet, pocketed it in his arms, turned around and went out.

Zhou Rui's family persuaded his daughter again: "When you go back, gather your son-in-law's wealth first. No matter whether you can save people or not, you will have to live your own life."

"How do I know where his wealth is." Zhou Rui's daughter cried: "On weekdays, it is only given to the household. When money is needed, it is generously given. But I really don't know where the money is."

Zhou Rui's family's heart slammed first, it seems that the son-in-law will be saved even if he is saved, or he will be saved if he is not saved. Otherwise, who will go if the fortune is cheap? However, looking at the son-in-law like this, he doesn't think much of his daughter. This made her somewhat angry.

"Then you have to go back first, just one yard and one shop is enough for you to live." Zhou Rui's family hated iron. They are all used to being ruthless, and they have no shrewdness at all.

After sending his daughter, Zhou Rui's family hurried to Mrs. Wang's place. To do this, you need a post from the government.

Madam Wang closed her eyes and held a Buddhist bead in her hand. She knew about Zhou Rui's family a long time ago. There is nothing in this house that can be hidden from people. However, she was still a little annoyed in her heart, only the people around her had accidents all the time, and it was impossible for any decent thing to happen. But this week, Rui's family is really someone he can't leave for the time being. Many things outside are handled by her. Now that it is fierce, where can I find the right person.

Just listened to Zhou Rui's family: "This matter shouldn't bother the wife, but from now on, everything from the old lady must find a proper outlet. My son-in-law is nothing else, but in this antique shop, there is no one who is more familiar than him. The price is also fair. I dare not make money from our house. After all, he has to rely on the house to make a living, right? If I find another family, one is afraid that it will not be stable, and the other is that the price is not suitable. Go, it's not a loss. Besides, my son-in-law has been in the capital for years, and he is also doing his duty. He colluded with bandits wherever he went. It's just a shopping mall, like a battlefield, and it's unknown if he was framed."

Wang's words are naturally dubious. This rumor has nose and eyes, and it is definitely not fake. There must be something wrong here. It is not difficult to fish people out of it, but it is necessary to let the people below know that they are not that confused and easy to fool. He said, "This is groundless, not necessarily without a reason. If you really did such a destructive deed, and the mansion rashly intervenes, you will lose the reputation of the mansion. You should be more cautious."

Zhou Rui's busy family smiled and said: "I don't dare to hide it from my wife. If I talk about it inappropriately, I'm afraid that it will be a disaster caused by making friends by mistake. This businessman sells goods everywhere, how can he not recognize a few friends of three religions and nine ranks. Therefore, It is possible to be implicated. But he himself would never dare to make a living without his head."

Only then did Mrs. Wang nodded: "Then you can go and try the post from our house."

Zhou Rui's family responded happily.

But this matter is not something that Jia family's face can clear up. The defense of the capital is being managed by Wen Tianfang. The idea of ​​the Jia family's privilege is completely useless for him. Zhou Rui's family begged grandpa to tell grandma to put in a lot of money, only then did he know which master had the final say. But no matter how stupid Zhou Rui and his wife were, they knew that the post in their hand would not be passed on. They all knew about the conflict between the Xue family and the Jinghaihou mansion. The wife of the Xue family even gave the wife five thousand taels of silver, and the wife did not go to the Lin family to open a mouth. It was the girl of the Xue family who, by virtue of her friendship with the eldest girl of the Lin family, begged to come to the door, and they considered that one thing. What kind of onion are you? The Lin family recognizes who they are.

Only then did Zhou Rui and his wife really get angry. There is only one daughter in the family. If this son-in-law is beheaded, how will the life of the daughter live. The couple have been counting on this for the rest of their lives.

"Go and beg the second grandma, who in the whole family doesn't know that the second grandma has the best relationship with the eldest girl of the Lin family." Zhou Rui looked at the mother-in-law and said.

The complexion of Zhou Rui's family changed. She really didn't respect Wang Xifeng during this time. But now that's the only way to go. She simply touched her face. At this time, her face was worth a few dollars.

Knowing that Zhou Rui's family wanted to see her, Wang Xifeng had a mocking smile in her heart. So, ah, this person, it's good to be proud of yourself. No, now there are times when she asks for the door.

Zhou Rui's family originally thought that Wang Xifeng had to make some difficulties for himself, but he didn't want others to look ugly at all.

Wang Xifeng asked Zhou Rui's family to sit down and said with a sympathetic face: "Some words were originally inappropriate for me. But if I don't say it, I don't think others will dare to tell you. Look at you working hard for this son-in-law. I can't bear it either. After all, you were married to Jia's family from the Wang family and my aunt. You are a bit closer than others."

This is very affectionate, but Zhou Rui's family is a little confused. No one dared to tell her anything.

Wang Xifeng suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth, and then said with a sympathetic face: "Your son-in-law, you can raise a woman outside and have a son. That child is not small. It is estimated that they are guarding the people in our house. He was so talkative that he couldn't hide it. That's why he didn't set up the mother and child in the capital and hid people in Tongzhou. He has always been in business, and it was common for him to go out for three or five days without returning home. It was only half a day's journey from Tongzhou to the capital. It is a waterway terminal, and goods from all over the world are concentrated here. He went to Tongzhou, and no one doubted it. If it wasn't for his old background this time, and he did not know that he was such a person. That Tongzhou woman is also Serious grandma. No one knew it was an outhouse."

Zhou Rui's face turned blue, and she didn't want to believe it. But she also knew that Wang Xifeng would never joke about this kind of thing. He couldn't help but say: "My son-in-law is a filial person, and he is also good to my daughter. Grandma said so suddenly, I just can't slow down in my heart for the time being."

"This is also the news I just got from the yamen. Your son-in-law is very worried about the mother and son. Perhaps you knew that this time things were going to be bad, but at the last moment, you sent a trustworthy man to deliver a letter to the mother and son, Tell the mother and son to go back to their hometown. When the people in the yamen went to look for them, the mother and son had already boarded the boat and went all the way south. Presumably your son-in-law's furniture is in that woman's hands. Besides, you know where your son-in-law's hometown is. Yeah. But that woman knows it. Tell me, who would have thought that it was such a person. This is all the guy who found the messenger in the yamen, and that guy confessed. We don't dare to talk nonsense." Wang Xifeng shook He shook his head, a look of helplessness and sympathy.

The face of Zhou Rui's family is not white now, but green. Well, you Leng Zixing, you are playing with your husband and wife. He couldn't help asking angrily: "Grandma knows where the mother and son are now." Finding them won't kill them, but at least they have to be sold to that dirty place.

Wang Xifeng said in his heart, why should I tell you that I committed murder for nothing, and said, "This has nothing to do with your son-in-law's case. The yamen didn't investigate it, so I didn't know it." What I know now is what Lin Yutong shared with himself. private message. Not willing to say. How to drop it.

Zhou Rui's family still has the intention of saving people now. He just wants to let the son-in-law die in prison, or else the yard and shop will not be in the name of his daughter.

I don't know anything about such a thing. I don't know how many people watch their couple jumping around like two fools and laughing secretly. The more I think about it, the more I hold my breath, and I feel both distressed and angry towards my daughter. It's so confusing to be deceived by a man like this.

Xiaohong watched Zhou Rui's family leave just like that, and whispered, "Thanks for leaving. With this man's entanglement, it's not easy to pass up."

"Now she's just thinking about stuffing the yamen with money, making his son-in-law suffer a bit, and confessing to the mother and son. If she can't do anything else, I'm afraid she can't wait for her son-in-law to die quickly. But Think about it, as long as Leng Zixing can't die this time, Zhou Rui's family can't live in fear this week. No bandits are alone. There must be someone behind this. In the future, she will be afraid of the days. There's more. You can just watch her lively." Wang Xifeng sneered. But in my heart I could not help but envy the taste of this power. If you say you win, you will win. Lin Yutong's work is really reliable.

Xiaohong's eyes turned and said, "Grandma's sour soup today is good, it's the most appetizing. I'll send a bowl to the old lady." Then she told Yuanyang about it by the way. In his heart, Yuanyang was only afraid that he would die from hating Zhou Rui's family. If you have the opportunity, don't stumble. Besides, the old lady's things came out of Yuanyang's hands, and the final direction must be decided by grandma. The relationship with the mandarin ducks still has to get along well.

Wang Xifeng stretched out her hand and clicked Xiaohong, and said, "Clever!"

Yuanyang listened to Xiaohong's gossip-like joke, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Now, she prefers the second grandmother. Even if the second grandmother wanted the old lady's things, most of them would be put on the bright side, not the threatening people who made it. Makes people uncomfortable. Seeing Xiaohong's cleverness, she said, "Tell you masters, I know what she's thinking."

Xiaohong said with a smile: "Sister just saying this is too outrageous."

Seeing that things were handled neatly, Lin Yutong knew that this was not something a shopkeeper could do. But Wen Tianfang was willing to intervene, and there was nothing she could not accept. The auction is not in a hurry. With decent auction items in hand, it is not too late for people to prepare. This is not something that can be done in one or two days. Take it slowly. She feels that the most important thing she lacks now is time.

Throughout the summer, the Lin family had been busy making arrangements for Wen Tianfang and Lin Yutong. Although it was just an engagement, it was still lively enough. In her own marriage, no matter how capable the girl's family is, she can't personally intervene. All the female relatives of the Zhang family came to Zhang Luo. The Jia family wanted to intervene, but Lin Ruhai didn't invite it at all. Mother Jia sent people to test it twice, but Lin Ruhai just pretended not to understand. Didn't pick up at all. On the other hand, Jia Baoyu himself came to the Lin family twice, and Lin Yuyang received them and sent them away. When the girl from the Jia family came, it was mostly Lin Yutong who came forward and blocked it. Now that Lin Daiyu has made a decision, she should not take care of the rest. When Dr. Su came to the capital, he took care of his family and arranged for him, so he patiently taught Daiyu. One taught with heart, and the other studied with heart. In a few days, Lin Yutong, an auditor, became more and more difficult to listen to. It has to be said that people's intelligence quotient should be different. At least Lin Yutong felt that his head was definitely not as smart as Lin Daiyu's, and a little girl in her teens, in modern times or a junior high school student, was the time to gain knowledge. Once she got in, she was less distracted. There is a lot of meaning to not hear what's going on outside the window.

When the heat passed and the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, the Lin family welcomed an unexpected guest - Grandma Liu.

Grandma Liu knew Lin Yutong's identity, so she went to Lin's house after inquiring directly. Now, Grandma Liu manages the farm for Wang Xifeng, and her life is considered affluent. After driving the donkey cart and carrying the board, he came. The servants of the Lin family do not have such obvious dislikes of the poor and the rich. If it really exists, I don't dare to leak it out. I know that my master doesn't like it, so I'll put it on my face if I'm stupid.

The servants at the corner gate brought Grandma Liu in and placed them in the concierge before coming to report. Lin Yutong was very surprised. Busy calling someone.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual in Grandma Liu's basket, it was just a few tender pumpkins and various vegetables, all of which looked fresh and fresh, so she smiled and asked someone to take it. "Looking at the tenderness of the pumpkin, I asked someone to wrap the buns and eat it."

Seeing that the girl didn't dislike her, Grandma Liu immediately smiled more sincerely: "I heard about the girl's happy event, and then I realized that the two noble people I met in my life were originally from the same family. It can be seen that the bodhisattvas, gods and Buddhas all have eyes. I originally wanted to come early and kowtow to the girl, but I didn't dare to disturb it because the house was busy. I thought that in the autumn, the melons and vegetables came down, and I would give the girl a taste of the early adopters. "

"Grandma is too kind." Lin Yutong said and smiled, not embarrassed, "Grandma's life is fine now, looking at melon and vegetables, I'm afraid it will be a bumper harvest this year."

When Grandma Liu talks about crops, her mouth is full of crops. Lin Yutong was not impatient either, listening with relish. That board is no longer a snot-dangling little urchin. It looks like he has entered school, and he has rules.

Lin Yutong kept Grandma Liu for dinner. Before sending her off, he said: "Grandma is not worried about food and drink these days, so I will not give those things. Only these books are used by my brother. There are comments on them, and I think they should be of some use to the board. "You're welcome, grandma."

This is more precious than any gold and silver that come to Grandma Liu. "Amitabha, who doesn't know that Master Lin is a Tanhua Lang, and Master Lin is also a scholar." Grandma Liu recited the Buddha directly. The private school in his own village is just a child.

Grandma Liu left Lin's house and said to Ban'er, "You have to be careful about this book. It will be regarded as a family heirloom in the future. After reading this book, you can come back as a scholar."

The children of poor families were in charge early, and Baner hurriedly responded. The teachers in the school did not have any of these books.

When Grandma Liu entered the city, she naturally wanted to see Wang Xifeng. This time, it is also a familiar way, and it is to find the little red girl. This Xiaohong's parents are all decent people in the house, and no one is embarrassing her. Not long after, Xiaohong came to pick up people. "Grandma didn't say a word when she came, no matter who's carriage, she brought her along."

"Why is it so troublesome, now my legs and feet are still neat and I can walk." Grandma Liu said, "I know that the second grandmother is happy, I don't feel relieved if I don't come to see it."

The two talked all the way and entered Wang Xifeng's yard all the way. Wang Xifeng is already pregnant. Slightly bulging belly. When Grandma Liu saw it, she said, "It must be a kid."

Everyone likes to hear these words, especially the words of such an old man, which made Wang Xifeng feel a little more at ease. "Grandma came suddenly, but something happened."

"One is to say congratulations to the eldest girl and grandma of the Lin family, and the other is to ask grandma how this year's rent is calculated." Grandma Liu saw Wang Xifeng puzzled, so she said, "This year's weather is good, but I charged more. Some people raise their rent by 10%. Let me ask grandma, what is your charter?"

Wang Xifeng nodded, it turned out that there was such a reason. Thinking that in the future, it is impossible to take root in that place, but fame and popularity are extremely important. Otherwise, it won't take root. He said: "Our family only has rent-free children, and we have never raised rents. If the harvest is not good, we will reduce or exempt it. If the harvest is good, everyone will pay it on time. Blessed."

Grandma Liu nodded hurriedly, "This time, our land can be managed easily. Grandma just don't worry, there are more people who talk about grandma's goodness, and luck will come naturally."

It happened that the grandmother came with the eldest sister in her arms, and Wang Xifeng asked Grandma Liu to name the eldest sister.

Wang Xifeng had no choice but to have this girl and this one in her stomach, both of which hurt. Now I feel that I have done something good for my children, and I am happy. I chatted with my grandmother Liu again about the daily routine.

"I just didn't see Ping girl." Grandma Liu couldn't help asking when she remembered the last time such a decent girl came.

Xiaohong smiled and said, "I can't be called Ping girl now, it should be called Ping Auntie."

Before Grandma Liu could speak, she heard footsteps outside, and then the curtain was lifted, and Ping'er came back.

"What are you talking about, girl?" Ping'er scolded Xiaohong first, and then, seeing that it was Grandma Liu, she hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

When Grandma Liu saw Ping'er's dress, it was indeed not a girl's dress. I have a number in my mind. Strangely, the second grandmother was next to the little red girl. There is such a reason. This self-initiated wife and concubine is not really good. Presumably the second grandmother's private rooms, this girl Ping does not know. He hurriedly smiled and said, "My family has had a better time this year. I picked up fresh melons and fruits and sent them to my grandma, my wife, and the old lady to try it out."

Ping'er only said that she couldn't live any longer, so she came to find someone to help one or two. He smiled and said, "That's a good feeling. Grandma likes something fresh and refreshing now."

Wang Xifeng and Xiaohong looked at each other, it was an old man after all, and they knew what to say and what not to say without warning. Wang Xifeng changed the subject and said, "I blushed when I saw you, but I didn't drink much. If you don't lie down, who can push you from behind."

"However, I asked Grandma to take a few sips." Ping'er touched her face and smiled: "Unfortunately, Grandma can't eat it. Those crabs are about half a catty in size. That's not enough, except for having a head and a face. Yes, no one else can get it. I brought a few back, just in time to ask Xiaohong to accompany my grandma to eat. It's still hot. "

"You are greedy for me, aren't you." Wang Xifeng said so, but she really asked Xiaohong to take Grandma Liu and Ban'er to eat while it was hot. Only leaning on the couch to talk to Ping'er.

"But there is something." Wang Xifeng asked Ping'er.

"It's not a big deal. It's just this month's monthly payment, and up to now, the wife has not been able to send it. Now, even the raiders in Baoyu's house have asked. It's hard to think about it." Ping'er whispered.

"Isn't it difficult?" Wang Xifeng said: "Going to the kitchen to ask for a bowl of egg custard will cost dozens of dollars. Even in Baoyu's house, those young ladies who seem to be gimmicks will have to pay as much money. No matter how much the old lady subsidizes, I can't stand this expense. The servants in the family are getting used to being out of shape. Serving the master is supposed to be due. Now, the masters seem to be raised by the servants below. Wait, When it's time... when it's all sold, I'll know what a good day it is today."

"But it's not the way to go on like this. I want to be confused day by day. Only the wife doesn't speak, and they all come to me to ask for money. What can I give?"

"Being a ghost in front of me, I don't believe that the people below don't know about the wife's money." Wang Xifeng laughed scornfully.

Ping'er pursed her lips and smiled: "My wife is too much. Now I don't even let this money go. I just took everyone's money to make money. Who doesn't gossip? Yesterday, the eldest wife asked me to go, only Ask Xian to give her five hundred taels of silver. I guess she wants to give money away."

"Just her brain..." Wang Xifeng said disdainfully.
