Mrs. Qian took out a hanging coin, and together with Mrs. Qian, divided the thousand copper plates into ten strings, each of a hundred.
The village chief couldn't help but look and look. Seeing the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law counting quickly, he couldn't help but ponder. Few people in the village can count people so fast, even counting money.
It seems that since Man Bao went to school, the number of people in the old Zhou family has become very strong. Sometimes in the village, the children of the old Zhou family can be heard one, two, three, four... counting.
This matter has been on my mind for so many years, and old Zhou Tou naturally couldn't wait. He shook the burden brought by the yamen servant, shook out the two ragged clothes and shoes inside, put the money in it, and gave it to the yamen. notice, and then went out with the village head.
Standing at the door, the village chief asked, "Who do you want to find?"
"Go to Uncle Lai first, and see if he is willing..." Old Zhou had already figured out the order, and they all came according to their relationship with his family.
The village chief also had no objection, nodded his head and said, "Zhou Hu's house should be fine, as well as Da Liang's father's place..."
The village chief naturally thought about it, knowing that these families had a good relationship with the old Zhou's family, and they were more or less taken care of by Zhou Yin.
Old Zhou nodded, and headed to his uncle's house under the sun.
At this time, Man Bao was eating the cheese with her head down in a sullen mood, because it was iced and cold, and she felt better after several mouthfuls.
Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang also sat aside and ate with gusto.
Mrs. Liu stood outside the window and took a look, then turned and left. Daji silently followed behind.
Nanny Liu glanced at him, but didn't speak. When she arrived at the main courtyard, Nanny Liu stood under the eaves and told the maids to run to make tea or get an ice basin, and she ordered the people in the courtyard to leave immediately.
Daji followed Mrs. Liu into the room, and stood aside with his hands down.
Liu put her hand on the table, and she pressed a letter. She took a sip from the tea bowl and asked, "Did Man Bao say anything?"
"It is said that the yamen servant came to report the funeral, and the people from Zhou's family have already received the notice." Daji paused and said, "Miss Man complained that the yamen servant who came was too greedy. She ate and took food at Zhou's house and spoke rudely. She was a little angry. .”
Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "My child, it's normal to be angry. It seems that Mr. Wei just made arrangements in Liangzhou."
Daji lowered his head and said nothing.
On the day of the third day of junior high school, when the family was doing business in a mess, a letter was delivered to him. When he saw the signature on the letter, he knew it was from the capital. He was hesitant to send it to Yi I went to the state, but I held back when I saw that there was no sign of urgent.
This morning, as soon as Mrs. Liu returned home and sat down, after dealing with her daughter-in-law and returning to the courtyard, Daji quietly came back from the school and handed Mrs. Liu the letter she had always carried with her.
The letter was sent by someone sent by Wei Zhi, and it contained the latest news about Yizhou.
Last year, the case of Jianwei Weir’s breach was half-sentenced years ago. Lord Yan, the governor of Yizhou, was sentenced to execution, ransacked his home, and exiled within the three clans; , the exile of exile.
However, the judgment between Yizhou Jiedushi and Yizhou King has not been handed down. The court has quarreled about this matter for almost a year. Yizhou Jiedushi Huang has been detained, while Yizhou King has been left in the capital. , except that he cannot go out of Beijing, he is free personally.
In April, the emperor finally sentenced, Lord Huang was exiled, while the king of Yizhou was reprimanded, and at the same time, the fief of a county was taken back as punishment.
Wei Zhi told Liu that June is the Empress Dowager’s Qianqiu, and it is impossible for the emperor to kill the King of Yizhou, not to mention that they have no real evidence to prove that the breach of the Qianwei Weir is related to the King of Yizhou, just that there is...
In the absence of a rebellion, it is impossible for the emperor to kill the king of Yizhou.
Mrs. Liu squeezed the letter in her hands tightly, and it took a long time to suppress her emotions and continue reading. At the end of the letter, Wei Zhi told Mrs. Liu that he had arranged a new source for Zhou Yin, which would ensure that the Zhou family would be separated from this matter.
But Mrs. Liu had to make sure that the Zhou family would accept the documents sent by the yamen. The county yamen recognized that Zhou Yin died in Liangzhou, so the Zhou family had to recognize it.
Otherwise, if the Zhou family insisted that they were not from their own family, the county government would have to investigate again, and it would be impossible to force them to admit it.
But in fact, the situation here in Qili Village is the best to grasp. The mentality of the Zhou family, and even the mentality of the entire Qili Village villagers, is easy to grasp. As long as they grasp what they want in this matter and want to achieve The goal is simple.
And what they want is very simple.
It is safe!
Sure enough, the Zhou family accepted the matter without much hesitation.
After drinking tea, Mrs. Liu felt a little better. She put away the letter on the table and planned to hide it.
These things will be evidence if the case is reversed in the future.
She comforted herself and said: Although the road ahead is still bleak, at least she knows who the young couple who reached out to help her son were; Temporarily removed from the middle, making them much safer...
This is all good, isn't it
The most important thing is that her grandson is growing up, very safe, healthy, and very smart.
If you can't make it in three years, then five years, ten years, or even fifteen years...
Mrs. Liu calmed down, raised her head and said to Daji: "You usually follow the young master and Miss Man closely, don't let them be too naughty, and study hard with Mr. Zhuang..."
Daji bowed in response.
Only then did Liu wave his hand to let him go down.
Nanny Liu came in lightly and refilled Mrs. Liu with a cup of tea.
Mrs. Liu smiled at her and asked, "Is Liu Gui still in the field?"
Liu Gui is Madam Liu's son, who was originally in charge of Zhuangzi in Longzhou. He came to settle accounts at the end of last year. For some reason, the Liu family kept him.
He is now in charge of the few acres of land not far from Bai's house with melons, fruits and vegetables and some wheat and rice. He quietly built a few stone houses nearby, and he usually lives there. He didn't live in the servant's room of the Bai family.
That piece of land was Master Bai's field, so people in Qili Village basically didn't go there, and the Bai family didn't hire people to build a house in the village. It wasn't until after the beginning of spring that the people in the village realized that it was there. Three or five stone houses were built.
After asking, I found out that it was the Bai family who came to live in the house and raise cattle and sheep.
The villagers couldn't help being speechless when they found out, feeling that the Bai family's cattle and sheep live better than theirs.
Because they seldom go there, no one knows. In fact, there are seven or eight people living there, and usually only one or two will appear in front of people. Others seldom go to the village or the Bai family.
Nanny Liu didn't know what the old lady was doing, and she didn't know what to ask. She just bowed and said, "It's in the field. It is said that the melons grown at home have worms, and they are catching them."
"Let him come, and I'll ask him about the field."
"yes."
