The Beautiful Land - Chapter 128

When Xi Fuwei returned to the Flower Hall again, the tea in front of Mrs. Shang was cold. She was about to pick it up for a change, but Mrs. Shang anxiously held her hand: “Mr. Shen, I am not thirsty! I just thought I know, my husband and Yiang, can there be any help?”

“The matter of the respected husband can only be determined after hundreds of adults come back.” Xi Fuwei sighed, patted the back of her hand, and said softly, “As for Mr. Zou, because of his young age, I just went to ask for instructions. Master Qi said, it’s not impossible to open the Internet. But… if there is no reason, we can do nothing!”

Mrs. Shang misunderstood at first, and immediately said that as long as Zou Yi’ang is safe, she doesn’t care if she ran out of wealth.

Waiting to hear Xi Fuwei hint that she understands the mistake, Jin Yiwei is not going to rip off, but need more clues. She is dejected and said: “I have been married to the Zou family for these years, although I know that my husband is hiding something from me, but I haven’t thought about it much. After all, there are some ledgers that are unknown to outsiders in the family property of Zou Mansion. It is not surprising. I think that the Zou Mansion will be given to Yiang in the future, and the husband will have a male heir. Will it still harm him? So after I knew there was a secret compartment in his study earlier, I didn’t probe it.”

Xi Fuwei asked: “Then that secret grid…”

“Mister’s colleague just now has been found.” Madam Shang choked. “Actually, it was because I found something from Angri. I was listening to a few words of the school lieutenant to confirm my husband… My husband is afraid that it is not. That simple.”

“Confirm?” Xi Fuwei was keenly aware of her wording. “So, the lady has long felt that Patriarch Zou is wrong? It was just a suspicion before, and this time I confirmed it?”

Mrs. Shang hesitated. After Xi Fuwei “it’s all this time, even if Mrs. Zou is unwilling to betray Patriarch Zou, she must think about Zou’s son Ms. Zou and the others”, she said with tears: After the news of the opening of the river came out, many people came to the door openly or secretly to ask about the attitude of the Zou family. Originally, I thought there was nothing to hesitate about this kind of thing. The Zou family grew up relying on the canal, and the imperial dredging would open the river. It is an out-and-out good thing for the Zou family. Not only does it require support, even if Kaihe asks the Zou family to contribute money and efforts, that should be the case!”

“But the shrewd husband who has always been savvy hesitated on this matter. Not only did he refuse to express his position for a long time, he even deliberately avoided dignitaries such as Song Shangshu when the court was a foregone conclusion. He didn’t want to make a decision because he was offended!”

“At that time, I privately wondered if my husband was caught by the opponents of Kaihe, or threatened, so that I didn’t dare to speak up?”

“But after some observation, I don’t think it looks like… and to put it in a bad way, although our Zou family is a bit thin in Jining, what is it to put it on the court?”

“Even if the Zou family tried their best to oppose the opening of the river, wouldn’t it be possible that this project could not be carried out?”

“What really made me realize that my husband’s identity is not simple… it’s you, sir!”

Xi Fuwei said unexpectedly: “Me? When I was in the Zou Mansion, I basically didn’t take a picture with the Master Zou?”

“But because of the farce of Dongchang House Wenjiazongzi on the birthday of the old lady, our husband and wife know the details of the husband.” Mrs. Shang pursed her lips and said, “But my husband does not dismiss Mr. The origins of Mr. Fear. But let Yiang and the others get close to him… This is something I can’t understand anyway.”

“What Madam means is that Patriarch Zou is also interested in the court, but because of the unspeakable internal situation, he dare not surrender blatantly?” Xi Fuwei frowned, “So pretending to be ignorant of the actions of Mrs. Zou and Miss Zou?”

When she was in the Zou Mansion before, she had been puzzled. It was obvious that her identity was almost exposed. Mrs. Shang contacted her herself, and it could be said that it was an intrigue. The young Zou Yiang and Zou Qiongruo still let herself teach them. , This is very strange.

She thought, and then said, “Then what was the reason the old lady fired me?”

“Old lady, I’m afraid I don’t know anything.” Mrs. Shang smiled bitterly and said, “That time someone told the old lady and said that Yiang has different thoughts about you. The husband knows that, old man. Ren Zilai is the most painful Yiang, and I am very worried when I heard the news. I received the news that Yiang got up and went to look for her husband early, and went with his feet. He happened to see Yiang and his husband pulling and pulling, so he ordered the eviction order. …I was waiting for my husband to find me, but my husband never went there. I thought maybe my husband wanted to take this opportunity to leave Zou Mansion?”

Xi Fuwei heard the implication in her words, and basically suspected that the so-called being caught by the old lady and having to leave was self-directed and acted. The reason was that she did not need to stay in the Zou Mansion anymore. She found a reason to get out. I couldn’t help raising my eyebrows and said, “Even if I’m going to resign from Xixi, I won’t throw dirty water on myself and Young Master Zou like this.”

Mrs. Shang hurriedly said, “That’s the truth… It’s a pity that the low-handed maid has already driven away because the old lady doesn’t like the people underneath to make a fuss. Otherwise, she has to use family law to give her a long memory!”

“Is the old lady in front of you?” Xi Fuwei asked in surprise, “Then you should follow the old lady all the time. How did you know that Master Zou went to the women’s school to find me?”

“The old lady has always sent the maidservant to visit Yiang.” Madam Shang explained, “The maidservant knows that the old lady is very concerned about Yiang, so even if she doesn’t go to see Yiang, she always inquires about Yiang’s affairs. So. For this reason, he did not hesitate to use the monthly money to buy Yiang’s attendant, and he knew everything about Yiang’s whereabouts.”

He pursed his lips, “It is said that she has a younger sister who resembles Yi Ang Nian Sui. The reason for doing this is that she will give her sister to Yi Ang as a housekeeper in the future.”

Seeing Xi Fuwei thoughtful, she gritted her teeth, got up and knelt down, and said, “If your husband is dissatisfied with this matter, Zou Mansion is willing to do anything to get Mr. Yu’s original status…”

“Madam does not need to be like this!” Xi Fuwei hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull her up and said earnestly, “Although my days in Zou Mansion are not long, but I have been taken care of. Now that Zou Mansion is in trouble, how can we not do things within our power?”

She groaned, approaching Mrs. Shang, and whispered, “At this moment, hundreds of adults are absent, and the general banner is the master. The general banner means that although Patriarch Zou’s actions are rebellious, but as long as you give enough credit, your majesty It’s not a bloodthirsty person, and it’s not that there is no room for change. Since the wife also feels that Patriarch Zou may not actually have his heart to the court, why not try to persuade Patriarch Zou to commit crimes and meritorious service? After all, it is now Yongle for nine years. Regardless of Patriarch Zou And what kind of involvement does the Zou family ancestor have with the previous dynasty? Time has changed, loyalty has become ignorance, and persistence has become obsessiveness… What does the madam think?”

If Mrs. Shang didn’t think so, she wouldn’t come to her now.

At this moment, Xi Fuwei’s euphemistic promise was obtained, and she nodded immediately, and asked: “Please help me, Mr., so that I can meet my husband!”

After thinking for a while, he asked, “If I can take a look and know that everything is well…”

Xi Fuwei said: “Madam wait a minute.”

Just about to go to Lu Zongqi again, Yu Kedi outside the door suddenly walked in and winked at her. Mrs. Tongshang said, “Master Zongqi has already ordered it. It is because of Miss Xi’s face, Rong Shang Madam went to visit Zou Zhihan in prison. However, there is only a stick of incense in time. If it is too late, please leave the wife immediately. Don’t embarrass the people below.”

Mrs. Shang got up hurriedly and asked: “Children…”

“Linglang is detained alone and is temporarily invisible.” Yu Kedi was expressionless, “but my wife don’t need to worry. Linglang is young, and many punishments are easy to fall behind. For the time being, he is just locked away.”

It hasn’t moved temporarily, that is to say, it will still move in the future?

Mrs. Shang heard what he meant, her heart sank, she dared not say anything to see her son, and whispered: “I know the concubine, can I go to prison now?”

Yu Kedi called someone to take her away, and asked Xi Fuwei: “She is willing to cooperate?”

“She planned to cooperate.” Xi Fuwei said truthfully, “Jin Yiwei only knows me, so she came to me.”

“I guess it’s the same. This Mrs. Shang doesn’t look confused. She can’t be buried with Jianwen.” Yu Kedi nodded. “But don’t be too honest. When you get down to the general banner, you must be your own The hard work is higher.”

Xi Fuwei smiled and said: “But I don’t have to ask for credit, so I might as well give you the credit and say that you came to help her and touched her.”

“You…you usually look at how smart you are. How can you be stupid when you are smart?” Yu Kedi looked at her with difficulty and said, “This is an opportunity for you to do meritorious services for you, so you can The Shen family even showed his face in front of you, do you still refuse to give me? You dare not, I dare not want it!”

Xi Fuwei’s heart jumped when he said this, and said, “What?”

“It’s been a long time since the adults left the Zou Mansion. Why didn’t you copy the house early and didn’t copy the house late? I just moved my hands this morning and left by myself. After Mrs. Shang came, I couldn’t find an adult. If you find the general banner, the three general banners, the Zou mansion, who was personally led by the general banner, did not plan to meet Mrs. Shang. The other two general banners are also the same. The lower banners and our school lieutenants can’t speak at all. , The lady who made you can only find you?” Yu Kedi sneered, “Isn’t it to prove your shrewdness and ability, will it be his good help?”

“…” Xi Fuwei calmed down and said, “When I had a drink there last night, I remember that you accompany the adult directly in the door?”

Yu Kedi said: “Are you talking about the white fox Qiu? I really didn’t see it at the time. But when the adults went to look for you in the back building, our people followed all the way. It’s not clear what happened?”

Seeing Xi Fuwei look embarrassed, but didn’t plan to let her go, and said, “Actually, you should buy some roast chicken drinks if you are free. Thank you. You must know that the adult entered the small building last night. In the past, I took some things that were not very clean. If it weren’t for our people to take people down in time and put things away, then it would be great fun!”

“Do they know about Lu Zongqi?” Xi Fuwei thought of the fact that Lu Zongqi and the clerks had nothing to do with them. At that time, she actually considered that they knew but didn’t say it, but maybe because they didn’t break the window paper, it was nothing. At this moment, I called Yu Kedi to speak, and suddenly felt a little bit embarrassed, “I was so busy last night, are you still free to follow the adults?”

“No matter how busy you are, you have to protect the adults!” Yu Kedi sneered and laughed, “Otherwise the adults have three long and two short ones. If you don’t say anything else, first of all, I can’t explain to the Shen family!”

Xi Fuwei rubbed her face and said depressed: “Forget it, don’t talk about this, where is Zou Yiang’s gate? Can I go and see?”

Although the kid was a bit stubborn, he was just childish mischief, and there was no bad heart. Xi Fuwei still felt a little pity for him when he got along.

Now that Mrs. Shang is not easy to visit, Xi Fuwei thinks that Zou Yiang is very panicked at this moment. If there is no objection from the upper hand, although he can’t be let go, he can be comforted after all, so that he will not be frightened.
