In the Chu Mansion, Jin Yu and Li Lin had no appetite at all because they were anxious and the weather was hot. The two of them ate some and used some fruit, and then looked forward to it eagerly.
"Sister Jinyu, why did Miss Chu stay away for so long? Did something go wrong?" Li Lin was so anxious that he didn't know where Tie Shuan was on this hot day. He was a scholar and had been studying since he was a child.
I don’t have much work to do, my body is weak and I can’t stand the torment!
"Sister Li, you have been anxious all the way. Now that you are here, don't be anxious. There is no point in being anxious, right? Just wait peacefully. If the girl has news, she will definitely come back and tell you!" Jin Yu
I was dizzy from being shaken back and forth by her, so I quickly said.
Li Lin had no choice but to sit down, but the old man with a bright head kept looking outside.
The door of the mansion finally rang, and Li Lin stood up from her chair with a bounce, "Oh, Miss Chu is back!"
Jin Yu also quickly stood up, and the two of them rushed out to greet him.
"Miss Chu, how are you? Is there any news?" Li Lin quickly stepped forward and asked.
Chu Yiqing let Yingqian help him get out of the car, and comforted him: "Mrs. Li family, don't worry, there is news. Tieshuan's case is still in the county government office and has not been reported to the government. In other words, Tieshuan's case
I'll be at the county government office soon, so I'll pack my things and go back with you!"
When Li Lin heard this, she naturally nodded gratefully, but as if she thought of something again, she quickly took Chu Yiqing's arm and asked: "Miss Chu, aren't you busy with official duties? Can you leave? Don't delay you.
Big deal!"
Jin Yu didn't think about this at first, but when Li Lin reminded her, she was shocked when she remembered the last time the imperial edict came to Shangjia Village, and quickly said: "Sister, can you really leave here? Don't do it like last time.
Like..."
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "Don't worry, the emperor is very busy now and can no longer take care of me!"
Now that vegetable shops across the country have opened, there is no shortage of vegetables. The emperor will not hold on to her anymore!
Hearing what Chu Yiqing said, Jin Yu and Li Lin felt relieved and quickly helped to pack up and prepare to return to Chu Han the next day.
Speaking of which, Chu Yiqing's stall in Lucheng is not small. There is no need to worry about the tens of thousands of acres of land. She has a hundred yuan to look after it. What she is worried about is the spring wheat she has just started testing and the persimmon trees that are about to bear fruit. She immediately
So I took advantage of the afternoon to make some arrangements, and finally went to Chuji Restaurant. The business of the restaurant has not been very good recently. Three new restaurants have opened on the street next door. Although the dishes are not as many as theirs,
It is novel, but because the new store is rare, they have taken away part of the customer base.
"Miss Chu is going to leave for a while?" Shan Laoer was a little panicked when he heard that Chu Yiqing was leaving. Although he had read books, it was his first time to be a shopkeeper. With Chu Yiqing's guidance these days, he was doing well.
It was going smoothly, but as soon as Chu Yiqing left, he felt a little panicked, for fear of not doing well.
"Yeah, Chu Han has some things to be busy with. I'll be back before the persimmons mature!" Chu Yiqing said with a smile, "I know what you're worried about. It's hard to do any business now, and I don't ask you to make money, as long as
As long as I can protect my capital and let the shop assistants have something to eat, they have been with me for so long!"
Shan Laoer nodded quickly: "Miss Chu, I will do my best to run the restaurant well!"
"And your eldest brother, he has a hot temper, he does things easily, and he doesn't think about things. You need to pay more attention to him. Don't cause any trouble. If you encounter difficulties that can't be solved, go to Mr. Bai. I've already
I have taken care of you all!" Chu Yiqing warned again.
"Miss Chu, I've written it down, don't worry!" Shan Laoer said quickly.
Chu Yiqing nodded and asked Shan Lao'er to take out the account book. He first cleared the previous accounts and left enough money for Shan Lao'er to transfer before returning to the Chu Mansion.
In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, so the whole family took advantage of the last light to pack their things and have dinner in the yard.
Jin Yu hadn't seen Ah Bao for a long time, so she was naturally affectionate to Ah Bao. Now she was fanning with one hand, feeding Ah Bao the watermelon she brought from home, and wiping Ah Bao's mouth with a sweat towel from time to time.
"Auntie, this watermelon is so sweet!" Po said with a smile, tilting his head, and then took another big bite.
Seeing that A Bao liked it, Jin Yu felt happy, so she turned to Chu Yiqing and said, "There are still a lot of watermelons at home, and they are not selling well this year. I heard that there are many watermelons coming in from other places, which are cheaper than ours. I am here."
When we left, Shopkeeper Liu asked if we could lower the price, so I asked him to figure it out. Fortunately, the cost of growing our own products is always lower than those shipped all the way!"
Chu Yiqing also tasted a piece. This year's watermelon seemed to be sweeter than last year's. Because it had been planted for two years, Sun Guangming and the others were more skilled and had better picking melons. All the watermelons they brought were ripe.
Just right.
"Sister Jinyu, you have something urgent. You came all the way and brought these things with you!" Chu Yiqing couldn't help complaining. The two of them were in a hurry and walked in the bright sun. They ate these watermelons on the way.
, and it has traveled a long way to get here.
"I didn't expect you to go back. I don't think it's as good as our home here. You can't buy such a sweet watermelon even if you have money!" Jin Yu laughed.
Chu Yiqing was chatting with Jin Yu, but Li Lin remained silent with deep thoughts, occasionally forcing out a smile to deal with it.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yiqing asked her to go in and rest quickly, so that she would stop thinking wildly when she fell asleep.
Seeing that Li Lin was gone, Jin Yu sighed: "The Li family's first wife and Li brother have suffered the boss's fault this time. In the past, Tieshuan's scholars, whether they were from the village or outside the village, who could see them?"
The door of these two disrespectful people was about to be broken down by the matchmaker. But look, this happened just a few days ago. As soon as those people heard that Tieshuan had been disqualified from taking the exam, their faces immediately changed.
Things have changed, especially Mr. Li and Mr. Li, who beat gongs and drums every day to celebrate at home. Although the second brother Li has moved his family to live by the river and basically never returns to the old house, gossip is easy to spread in this village.
There are quite a few people, and it has already reached the ears of Brother Li and the wife of the Li family. Hey, some people are just philistines!"
Listening to Jin Yu's words, Chu Yiqing recalled everything that happened in Shangjia Village. Now that Tieshuan has been disqualified from the general examination, this is no less than a ground-breaking event in Shangjia Village. Shangjia Village must have started to make a fuss!
Thinking of this, Chu Yiqing felt like returning home!
Because the weather was hot, it was dark, so Chu Yiqing got up and prepared everything. He put Abao, who was still sleeping, in the carriage, and took advantage of the cool weather to hit the road.
Because with A Bao, no matter how anxious he was, when the weather was too hot, Chu Yiqing would still not force himself to rush on. He would always find a place to rest first, take a rest, and wait until the sun was at its hottest.
Walking again, in the evening, try to check in the store as late as possible. After walking like this for four or five days, we finally arrived at Chu Han's county town.
Chu Han's county seat is a hundred miles away from Wuming Town. There are thirty-four towns under the county seat. In the past, the development of the county seat was not as good as that of Wuming Town. Now, due to the injection of power from the five major families, the county seat
, a lot of new shops have been opened, so it’s a lot more lively.
Since he had never been to the county town before, Chu Yiqing and his people found a spacious, clean and spacious inn to stay in, and then prepared to go to the county government office to inquire about the news.
That afternoon, seeing that the sun was not that hot, Chu Yiqing let Jin Yu watch Abao happily in the inn, while she took Ying Qian and Li Lin to the county government office.
Before reaching the county government office, Mrs. Li Lin pointed to a man squatting in a corner not far away and said: "Miss Chu, look, I have seen this man before. Last time I and Father Tieshuan came to see Tieshuan.
I happened to meet him, he is also from Wuming Town, and his son is Tong Sheng who was arrested together with Tie Shuan!"
Chu Yiqing took a look at the man and saw that the man looked haggard and dejected, so he asked Li Lin to go forward and ask about the situation.
"Brother, you haven't left yet. Have you seen your son?" Li Lin quickly stepped forward and asked.
The man raised his head, his face was pale, and he seemed to have some heat stroke. He looked up at Li Lin for a long time, and then he recognized Li Lin. He sighed and shook his head: "Don't mention it now. I come here every day. I come here every day."
, and stayed at the yamen gate, but there was no one in sight. A few days ago, a child was dragged out. He was dead and no one recognized him. No, he was thrown into a mass grave outside the city! By the way, eldest sister.
, why haven’t I seen you these days? Have you found your son?”
As soon as Li Lin heard that the child was alive and dead, she immediately turned pale with fright. She and Jin Yu went to Lucheng. Originally, Li Laoer was asked to guard here, but now the weather was hot, and the day she left happened to be dry.
Dou people sent word that the fish had floated, so Li Laoer had to go back and look at the fish. He didn't see anyone today. Could it be that he hadn't come back? Usually when the child was caught, which parent wouldn't keep an eye out, but now she saw Lao Li.
If the second one is not here, I am afraid that the boy whose body no one will recognize is Tie Shuan!
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Li Lin's staggering, the man wanted to get up and help her, but he himself was dizzy and struggled for a few times without getting up.
"Tieshuan Niang!" Suddenly, Li Lao'er's voice came from not far away, and Li Lao'er stepped forward and quickly supported Li Lin.
"You...where have you been?" As soon as Li Lin looked at Li Lao Er, she couldn't help but burst into tears. While crying, she beat Li Lao Er hard on the shoulder.
Chu Yiqing saw that Li Laoer was also here and hurried forward.
"Isn't this the fish in the river that has floated up? I went back to take care of the fish. Don't worry. I'm letting Yu Erbing watch over here. Why, you didn't see him?" Li Laoer quickly explained.
As soon as Li Lin heard that Yu Erbing was there, he quickly searched for it. Then he saw Yu Erbing sleeping soundly in the shade at the base of the wall. He quickly ran over to ask about the dead Tong Sheng, making sure he was not iron.
After tightening it, I let out a long sigh of relief.
"Miss Chu, I'm sorry to trouble you, but I asked you to come all the way back!" Li Laoer said quickly when he saw Chu Yiqing, his face full of apologies.
"Brother Li, Tieshuan is such a big deal, why do you still care about the fish in the river!" Chu Yiqing couldn't help complaining.
Li Laoer sighed: "Anyway, I won't be able to see you if I stay here. Although Yudou has been with me for so many days, he is still not as skillful as me. It's hot this summer and floating fish is a big deal. I have to go back!"
Chu Yiqing nodded and comforted: "Don't worry, I will do my best to rescue Tie Shuan!"
Li Laoer quickly thanked him gratefully.
"Thank God!" Ms. Li Lin came over with Yu Erbing, "Fortunately the dead Tong Sheng was not Tie Shuan, otherwise, I wouldn't be alive either!"
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about? Good luck, how could something happen to our iron bolt?" Li Lao Er had also just arrived and didn't know what happened, but he heard Li Lin's unlucky words and hurriedly scolded him.
Although Li Lin was told that the child was not an iron bolt, her hanging heart was relieved. However, when she thought that some children had begun to die, her heart tightened even more.
"Miss Chu, are you here too?" When Yu Erbing saw Chu Yiqing, he couldn't help but come forward to say hello.
Chu Yiqing nodded and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work!"
Yu Erbing immediately waved his hand: "It's hard work, it's all for the folks in the village, why should I help if such a big thing happens?"
Chu Yiqing nodded, and was about to go to the Yamen to ask, when he saw the Yamen's door suddenly opened, and several people were let out from inside.
"Oh, it's out, it's out!" Some people shouted and rushed forward. It seemed that they had found their relatives.
Li Linshi and Li Laoer also hurried forward and finally found Tie Shuan among the various tortured people.
"Shuan, what did you do?" As soon as Li Lin saw Tie Shuan's emaciated and haggard appearance, she couldn't help but stepped forward and cried.
When Tieshuan saw Li Linshi, he didn't care that he was a man, and his tears fell.
"It's good when it comes out, it's good when it comes out!" Li Laoer couldn't help but muttered.
"Can they not be released again? These people have been infected with the plague if they are locked up in there!" one of the parents of those children shouted.
"My son, my son!" Someone cried. It turned out that the parents of the deceased child had come. The body was pulled back from the mass grave and stopped at the gate of the government office.
Because the boy was suffering from the plague, and he had been dead for several days and his body was smelly. Although everyone sympathized with the family, they did not dare to come near. In addition, some of these boys had indeed spent money to buy them.
Those who were taking the test immediately saw that their children were fine, sighed and went home.
Li Laoer brought Tie Shuan to Chu Yiqing and said sternly: "Tie Shuan, kneel down for Miss Chu!"
When Tie Shuan saw Qing Qing, his face was full of shame. After thinking about it, he knelt down.
"Brother Li, what are you doing? Just let the child come out and we'll talk about the rest later!" Chu Yiqing hurriedly said to Tieshuan, "Get up quickly. Let's think of something else!"
However, Li Laoer refused to let the iron bolts up and reprimanded: "How can you deserve Miss Chu's heart? Don't forget that the gold sheaf and the four treasures of your study room were all given to you by Miss Chu.
I hope you will succeed, but how do you repay Miss Chu? Tell me quickly, what is going on, and how did you get involved in such a big thing? "
Tieshuan was already feeling aggrieved. Now that he heard Li Lin's reprimand, he felt even more uncomfortable. He just lowered his head and said nothing.
"Brother Li, please stop talking. Let's go back to the inn first, let Tie Shuan take a bath, change clothes, eat something, and ask a doctor to take a look. Don't leave any root causes of disease!" Chu Yiqing
He quickly stepped forward and lifted the iron bolt up first.
Li Lin also stepped forward and said, "His father, if you believe Shuanzi, Shuanzi must be innocent. Look at what he has suffered after being imprisoned for more than ten days! Let's just listen to Miss Chu.
Let’s go back first!”
Li Laoer then snorted coldly and said to Tieshuan: "I'll settle the score with you later!"
In the inn, Jin Yu and Li Lin prepared a bucket of bath water for Tie Shuan and sprinkled it with grapefruit leaves to remove bad luck from Tie Shuan.
In the room, Li Laoer felt uncomfortable sitting or standing, and in the end he had to squat aside and sigh.
Chu Yiqing watched A Bao eat and drink soup, and then brought a waiter into the house.
"Brother Li, I asked the waiter to prepare some food. Eat some first!" When Chu Yiqing saw Li Laoer squatting in the corner and sighing, he comforted him.
Li Laoer quickly stood up and said, "Miss Chu, I have made you worried. Look, I have come all the way to call you back! This child Tieshuan is so uneasy. Tell me that he doesn't study well.
,what..."
While Li Laoer was talking, Li Lin had already come out with the iron bolt after taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, and Jin Yu followed behind.
"Sister, where is Ah Bao?" Jin Yu asked first, for fear of starving Ah Bao.
"Yingqian is watching. Sister Jinyu, don't worry. Let's discuss how to solve the iron bolt issue!" Chu Yiqing said and asked everyone to sit down.
After everyone sat down, Tie Shuan told what happened. It turned out that before the examination, there was a rumor among the students about buying test questions. Liu Yuanlong, the son of the master of the town, even came to call Tie Shuan, but Tie Shuan disdained it.
As he was with them, he naturally refused to agree. Who knew that halfway through the exam, officers and soldiers came in to arrest people, saying that someone had secretly reported about buying test questions. Those officers and soldiers held lists in their hands and arrested them one by one, including
Iron bolt.
After Chu Yiqing heard Tieshuan tell what happened, he thought about it and asked, "Were Liu Yuanlong and Ma Yunfei also arrested at the beginning?"
Tieshuan nodded, "But he was let out the next day and said he was unjust! In fact, Liu Yuanlong was not unjust. I saw him buying the test questions with my own eyes! I don't know about Ma Yunfei!"
Chu Yiqing asked again: "Then do you know who sold them the test questions?"
Tie Shuan shook his head, "They said they were from the capital, and there were people up there. They were so mysterious that they didn't even tell me!"
"Is it really because people died and the plague broke out that they let you out?" Li Lin couldn't help but ask.
"I heard that the dead Tong Sheng's family also had some money. I heard that they had been clearing the water for a long time. Who knew he died suddenly? At first, the people in the county government didn't know it was him who died, but later they found out.
In addition, several children started to have fever, and the county magistrate became frightened. He said that our qualifications for the general examination had been canceled anyway, so he let us go!" Tie Shuan's expression changed when he thought that he would never be able to participate in the general examination again.
Extremely lonely, now, he doesn't even have the face to go back to his village!
Chu Yiqing saw his lonely look and knew his mood, so he comforted him: "Since you haven't done it before, don't be afraid. Let's go back first. I will ask someone to ask and see if there is any room for change."
, but I’m afraid this year’s examination won’t work, and I’m afraid we’ll have to wait another three years!”
When Li Lin heard this, she quickly said: "We are not afraid of waiting for another three years, but we are afraid that we will never be able to participate in the examination. Then..."
"Don't worry, I will try my best. Let's go back first!" Chu Yiqing comforted Li Linshi.
Jin Yu also said: "It's like this now, we can only go back and wait!"
Li Linshi and Li Laoer could only nod.
After a night of silence, Chu Yiqing took his people to Wuming Town the next day. Because he was worried about the situation in the town, he asked Jin Yu to take A Bao home first. Anyway, there were A De, Shi Shi and the others to protect him. Chu Yi Qing
Qing was relieved, so he took Yingqian to stay in the town to check the situation.
Compared to the last time I came back, the town has indeed changed a lot. Many new shops have been opened. One of them is called Zending. The decoration and style are all similar to those of Genting. They even use red paper on the outside to post pictures of beauties singing and dancing.
The big-character poster for the performance was posted not far from Yunding, and the scale of the cyclamen on the street seemed to have expanded a lot. There was an endless stream of customers at the door. Ma Teng stood on the second floor with a smile, and saw Chu Yiqing
, said hello with a smile, "Hey, isn't this Miss Chu? Why are you back? Didn't you say that you have been promoted and left this poor and barren place?"
Chu Yiqing ignored him and walked straight past, going directly to the world between heaven and earth.
Ma Teng snorted coldly, "I thought it was in the past, these people had to look at your face to buy what they want? Humph, this moment is not the other moment, there will always be a day when you come to beg us!"
As Ma Teng was talking, Ma Yunfei strode over and said happily: "Dad, the supplies from the capital have arrived. This time the price is half cheaper than the previous batch. I think the price of our meals can be reduced again. This time it won't be the same."
The struggle between heaven and earth will collapse?"
When Ma Teng heard this, he said happily: "Really?"
Ma Yunfei immediately took the account book and looked at it.
"Not bad, not bad. If this continues, how can Heaven and Earth be our opponent! Yunfei, you have made a great contribution this time. Not to mention, your vision is better than mine. If we really defeat Heaven and Earth,
We have made a great contribution to Master Shangguan!" Ma Teng said happily, but couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that although your examination results count this time, the time is too short, so you must not have performed well. If you fail this time,
…”
Ma Yunfei immediately said: "Dad, I have already told you, don't worry, I have already finished the answer, as long as the results count, there will be no problem!"
Ma Teng nodded: "As long as you have confidence, you're not far away from achieving results anyway! The thing to resolve this time is, I heard that Li Tieshuan was also implicated?"
Ma Yunfei nodded: "Li Tieshuan was simply wronged. However, he usually believed that his master liked him and he was very talented. He always looked above his head and did not take others into consideration, which offended many people. This time
It can be regarded as a lesson learned!”
