541: The house is restless [seeking monthly ticket]
Xu Jie knew that his senior sister was a strong-minded person with strong ideas. With Shen Jun's temperament, the two of them would most likely hit it off. However, Xu Jie never expected that senior sister Ning would actually leave and never come back! Only Ning was missing when the convoy returned.
Yan three people.
Xu Jie asked his close subordinates who came back to life.
Holding the handle, he raised his voice in disbelief: "What? You said Senior Sister Ning and the others stayed in Longwu?"
The subordinate nodded heavily.
He handed over a letter written by Ning Yan with both hands.
Xu Jie's fingers were shaking when he took the letter - he had not forgotten the main premise for Ning Yan to stay in Longwu County. Is that Mr. Shen really a daughter? It took some effort to peel off the paint.
Take out the letter paper inside and unfold it into ten lines.
After reading it, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He murmured in his mouth: "I just said how could Mr. Shen be born as a girl... I was really misled by this bastard Wen Shi, and it was a false alarm."
In this letter, Ning Yan clearly stated the real reason why she stayed in Longwu County. Her late husband Yan Xing Ning Wen Qi transformed into Wu You and died in Yong Gu Pass. She lost Yan An and could not even collect his bones, so she thought about growing up.
After living in Longwu County for several years, not only can I raise my daughter Nannan with peace of mind, but also allow Nannan to grow up in a place closest to her father, allowing time to heal the pain of losing her husband and father.
Under the rule of Lord Shen, Longwu County was in ruins and waiting for improvement, and the security of the place was acceptable. The mother and daughter lived here temporarily without having to worry about war.
As for Shen Jun’s identity as a woman...
Ning Yan didn't mention a word.
Xu Jie can "justify his theory" here.
He carefully collected the letter, smoothed out the wrinkles and put it into the wooden box on the side of the desk. He said to his subordinate: "In a few days, you will go to Longwu County again and send some money. Senior sister must have a strong character and don't like it.
People are kind and sympathetic, but after all, she is alone with two children, and her life is always inconvenient. If she had more money and money, she would not be too embarrassed."
Why a few days later?
Because the letter also asked Xu Jie to help find several female teachers with solid knowledge, preferably with good character, gentle personality, and no family background. Xu Jie didn’t know much about female teachers, and neither did the female teachers in his family.
The lady ran to see what she had chosen.
Searching takes time.
Xu Jie told his wife about this the same day, and she asked puzzledly: "I heard that Mrs. Yan had a famous teacher when she was young, and her knowledge and accomplishments were not better than those of the female teachers who taught her boudoir? If she only taught the girls in the family to enlightenment, how could a female teacher do that?
That's enough."
"Senior sister didn't explain why..."
The lady couldn't resist the taste of the snack.
"She didn't explain, so you helped her without asking why?"
Xu Jie said: "You can guess some of the reasons without asking. She and Xingning once had the desire to establish a college and inherit the family education. But the current situation did not allow it... She was willing to find something to distract her and forget it for the time being.
The pain of losing a spouse is also a good thing.”
Seeing that Xu Jie was speaking eloquently, the lady couldn't help but ask: "Establishing a college? Then why did you hire a female teacher?"
Xu Jie guessed: "Because the academy students are girls?"
This is not impossible.
Ning Yan has always been very creative.
Even Yan Xingning couldn't resist her kind.
"She is capable of disguising herself as a man to study under her teacher, so it would not be outrageous to build an academy that only recruits girls."
Xu Jie's tone was a bit helpless.
The lady couldn't help but sneer: "The purpose of a rich girl's study and literacy is to support the housekeeper in the future. Longwu County is bitterly cold and remote, and there is not even a decent school... How many students can you get by setting up an academy there? Girls from common people's families are better.
There are many, but what’s the use of them learning these things? They haven’t learned how to farm and weave before they can be useful..."
"Mrs. Yan did this to mislead others, isn't she? A commoner's daughter has learned something and her spirit has improved. How can she endure facing the earth with her back to the sky? Isn't she harming others? Besides, she is not subject to food, but where is the institute?
Don’t want money?”
"Where does this money come from?"
Xu Jie didn't say anything, but just looked at her lightly. The latter was keenly aware of her husband's emotions, pursed her lips, and restrained her curvature.
He asked: "Who else is gossiping with you?"
A few simple words made the madam's heart burn brightly: "What are you talking about? Can't it be me who thinks so?"
"If your words were put on other occasions or to other people, I wouldn't say anything to you." Xu Jie understood what the other party was worried about, but at the same time he didn't understand why she was worried, "But Senior Sister Ning is a fellow Senior Sister.
My benefactor, I respect and admire her as my husband. To judge our relationship based on worldly men and women, I underestimate Senior Sister Ning and completely insult Xu Wenzhu."
Xu Jie didn't get angry, and even his tone was calm, but Madam could see some dissatisfaction from his expression.
She turned her head away in embarrassment and shame, and said sadly: "Conjecture? Worldly men and women? Yes, she has the ambition to surpass me in every aspect. You and Na Ningtunan had a long talk. You have the same interests and sympathy.
I am just a female family member of the inner courtyard, and I only know the trivial matters of being a middle-aged man, but I am not as good as you all, who have great ambitions! Why don’t I want to share the same goals with my master?"
After that, he hid his face and left.
Xu Jie was left alone in the same place, stunned.
After a while, he summoned his confidants to inquire.
"Who has Madam been getting closer to lately?"
Because of spring plowing, Xu Jie has been homeless for most of the month, and he doesn't know who his wife is close to. Furthermore, the inner courtyard has always been the mistress's territory. As a husband, if he asks too many questions, it will be seen as a sign of disrespect for his wife's ability in the eyes of the whole family.
doubts.
The manager will tell you everything one by one.
Xu Jie's face turned dark and dark.
"It's those Tianhai families again... they still don't want to give up!"
Xu Jie is also a rebellious person at heart.
The more things are pushed against him, the more he refuses to do them. The Tianhai family all want to get involved in Heyin County, and they are attracted by the fertile fields with two consecutive years of bumper harvests and the rich mineral veins. In today's world, food is expensive.
Compared with gold, no one can despise food being too much.
But they were all blocked by Xu Jie.
Unexpectedly, they started directly from his backyard.
I want to make him feel restless in the house, but I have no way to do it.
The methods are also disgusting enough.
He had just had a bad time with his wife, and Xu Jie didn't want her to help find the female master. After much deliberation, he had no choice but to do it by himself and went to Tianhai. Of course, Xu Jie didn't cause trouble with those companies, but went with the master
Wu Xian had a meal.
Convey your position in subtle ways.
Discord in the account was a big taboo. He didn't want to break up with his colleagues. No one would look good at that, and it would also make it difficult for the lord Wu Xian. He would beat them early before the conflict was brought to light.
It’s better to take a rest and think!
Wu Xian said haha, but he didn't give an accurate answer.
After eating a meal, Xu Jie felt relieved.
He hurriedly left and met Zhao Feng, who looked equally unkind. Xu Jie had heard about Zhao Feng's situation. He had returned to Wu Xian's account a month ago to report, but he had been absent for two years and was estranged from his former colleagues. The latter had originally intended to
He had no intention of excluding those who were not from the Tianhai family, and it became even more obvious now.
They also proposed that Zhao Feng lead his troops to farm elsewhere.
As the saying goes: practice makes perfect.
No one is more familiar with this job than Zhao Feng.
He was able to act like a cow or a horse under Shen Tang's tent, so there was no reason to start pretending to be a general when he returned to a serious lord, right? Zhao Feng had a smile on his face for the first few days, but kept a straight face the rest of the time.
I am idle at home, picking my feet for more than a month.
When Xu Jie saw him, he immediately felt a sympathy for him.
