Chapter 52 Trouble
The manager's mother took the maid to search carefully in Mrs. Lin's house. All the valuables were there, but there was no fish scale book.
"Madam," said the manager's mother, "or say to the Cui family, you will not go there first if you feel uncomfortable."
Gu Mingzhu yawned at the right time, indicating that she was very tired and did not want her mother to go out.
When she came back from Cui's house yesterday, she thought of the fish scale book in her mother's hand. Mrs. Lin, the wife of Zhuangzi, was always in control and was waiting for her mother to send the fish scale book. In her mother's opinion, one hundred acres of land were not as good as the friendship between sisters in the clan, and this hundred acres of land was worth the flowers.
But she couldn't watch her mother buy fakes.
This sisterly friendship cannot be returned and exchanged, and their family’s money is not blown by the strong wind, so it is expensive.
Mrs. Lin looked at Zhuzhu and hesitated: "Go!" She had already had an unhappy relationship with the Cui family yesterday, and the clan sister's face was indeed not very good, so she would always meet in the future.
Mrs. Lin looked at Baotong: "You accompany the lady at home, I'll go and see it and come back." She also advised the clan sister not to make trouble again. If this continues, not only will the Cui family not be able to live in peace, but the clan sister herself cannot end it.
As soon as Mrs. Lin finished speaking, she felt the corner of her clothes being caught. Zhuzhu held her tightly and refused to let go.
"Zhuzhu," said Mrs. Lin, "You want to go with your mother, too?"
Gu Mingzhu pointed to Mrs. Lin's belly.
Mrs. Lin felt warm in her heart. Zhuzhu was worried about her. The mother in charge always said in front of Zhuzhu that her belly was big and she should be more careful on weekdays. Finally, Zhuzhu learned it.
Mrs. Lin said: "Zhuzhu is worried about her mother. It doesn't matter. Let's go early and come back soon."
The Lin family's village is a little far from Taiyuan City, and half of it is mountainous, so the price is not as good as those of the best land. However, the Lin family's sister-in-law was attracted by the fertile land, so the two of them agreed to buy the village together. Not only will there be an investment every year, but they can also have a place to settle in Taiyuan Prefecture.
A few years after buying the farm, Mrs. Lin's marriage was settled and married to Cui, Taiyuan Prefecture. This piece of land is naturally the best for dowry. Since then, the farm has been handed over to Mrs. Lin for handling.
"When I bought the land, I found a gentleman at home and said that the land was good and the feng shui was good. If I bought it, I would definitely be rich and noble. Perhaps it was a coincidence that my sister and I both married a nobleman," Mrs. Lin and Mom Wang told the past, "It's probably that. My sister and I care very much about this farm."
Mother Wang said, "Since this is the case, the lady shouldn't give the land to Mrs. Lin. You can save it for the future to give the eldest lady a dowry. It's also a blessing for the eldest lady. Maybe this way you can find a good marriage for the eldest lady."
When Mrs. Lin heard this, she felt a little shaken. She and the Marquis did meet in this village, but it was up to humans, so she still didn't believe it. Her father was thinking about the kindness of the old Dingning Marquis when he died. It was thanks to the rescue of the old Dingning Marquis when his father was in the army. Otherwise, even if he didn't die, he would have to be seriously injured. This kind of kindness would have to be paid back. They have not asked the clan sister for the benefits from the farm for this village over the years. This is also the reason.
Mrs. Lin said: "When Zhuzhu was a child, the clan sister helped us hire many famous doctors and gave us herbal medicine."
"That's not that I think the eldest lady is cured and can marry into the Cui family, otherwise I can take this effort?" Wang's mother whispered, "You and the Marquis, the eldest lady are not as calculating as Mrs. Lin. You have to be careful."
Mrs. Lin nodded: "I understand." The Lin family has not been easy for the past few years, and she doesn't want to create any more troubles.
The Gu family carriage went straight into the Linjiazhuang.
Mrs. Lin stood in the high pavilion and watched Mrs. Lin and Gu Mingzhu get out of the car. For some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Gu Mingzhu.
That child can't do anything else, she is the strongest to cause trouble.
Mrs. Lin ordered her mother to take care of her: "Look at Miss Cousin, don't let her touch things randomly." After that, she looked around. The gentleman who helped to read Feng Shui secretly told her mother that this farmer would have a very noble fate within three generations, and told her mother not to sell the farmer.
When the old marquis was defeated and forced to go home to recuperate, Cui felt really hard, so she had no intention of selling the land. At that time, she thought that if she had a daughter, she would try every means to let her enter the palace, and she might as well be the queen, but unfortunately she had two sons.
Now Mrs. Lin hopes that Cui Zhen can get children soon, but who knows that Zhang is so unscrupulous.
Three generations, three generations.
Mrs. Lin twisted her fingers, and no matter how she calculated, she could see that day. She would enjoy wealth and glory. If she didn't believe it, just wait and see. What the gentleman said would definitely be effective.
When it really comes to that time, let’s see what Brother Zhen has to say.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Lin and Gu Mingzhu also walked to the pavilion.
Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "You haven't been to this farm for many years. Now see if it's different?"
Mrs. Lin was thorny in her words. She wanted to join Mrs. Lin, but she had not been in charge of the village for many years. Seeing that she still had the face to ask for the 100 acres of land? However, Mrs. Lin was anxious to pull Zhuzhu: "Zhuzhu, you can't go there, be careful not to fall."
"Slow, slow down, don't run."
"How come this kid is so happy when he arrives at the village."
Gu Mingzhu threw the stones into the distance.
"Crash" shocked the birds on the trees.
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Lin was helpless and doting, "We'll play later."
Gu Mingzhu shook her head and stretched out her hand to ask Baotong for stones.
Mrs. Lin frowned when she looked at it. One was stupid, and the two were stupid. Zhuzhu's maid was the same. She would bring it to her. The master and servant would be in a mess wherever she went. It was simply disastrous.
Mrs. Lin regretted it. She hid here and wanted to be quiet for two days, but who knew that she hadn't taken a breath and started making trouble again.
Baotong opened his eyes like a copper bell: "Miss, throw another one, I'm so dazed, but I didn't see the bird."
Gu Mingzhu continued to throw the stone down.
Throwing stones and asking for directions was what Mr. Zhang taught her. I had never been here before. I didn’t know that now I found that the farmhouse was too big. If I really wanted to hide some people in the forest, no one could find it.
A few stones were thrown down, and a few birds flew away. A few more were thrown away. There were not many birds flying in the woods to the south.
There are not many birds in the forest, and they are usually alarmed, either wild animals or... people.
Gu Mingzhu pointed to the south and signaled to go there to play.
Mrs. Lin said: "From the south, there is someone else's farm, and the land on the farm is not as good as ours."
The Zhuangtou immediately smiled and said, "It's not as good as it is. The grain I produce is much less than ours every year. However, I heard that I have come to a new owner recently and want to grow medicinal materials in the field. I said that the medicine is worth a lot of silver. Patients with abdominal pain will be cured as soon as they take it. All the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital like it."
Mrs. Lin remembered one thing: "Then the Zhuangzi should have been bought by the Zhou family."
As he was talking, the manager came to report: "Madam, Mrs. Zhou San and Miss Second are here. I heard that you are at the village and want to invite you to the Zhou family to sit there."
Gu Mingzhu looked to the Zhoujiazhuang to the south, and it was probably a place of right and wrong.
Is anyone going to do it here?
It was earlier than she expected. It might be that Lord Wei's trial progressed too quickly, so they couldn't help but start to fight back.
Mrs. Lin took everyone to welcome Mrs. Zhou San and Miss Zhou Er. Gu Mingzhu glanced at Baotong, drew it twice in Baotong's palm, and then screamed.
Baotong said at the right time: "Snake, there is a snake..."
Mrs. Lin was shocked and hid behind the manager's mother: "Where is it? Where is the snake?"
"I entered the grass," Baotong said with confidence, "I have the best eyes and can see clearly."
Gu Mingzhu hugged Mrs. Lin's arm, tilted her head on Mrs. Lin's shoulder, and began to vaguely shout: "Home... Go... Go..." If it were her, she would stay to check the situation, but she could not let her mother get into trouble.
"Okay," Mrs. Lin hurriedly comforted Gu Mingzhu, "We'll go home, we'll go home now."
"Madam, I'm afraid I can't leave now," the head of the village pointed to a dark cloud not far away. "It's going to rain. I'm afraid I'm going to encounter danger on the road now, so I'd better wait!"
At some point, a black cloud gathered and floated towards this side. A gust of wind blew the broken hair of Gu Mingzhu's temples. Gu Mingzhu held Mrs. Lin's hand tightly.
