Zeng Chenfu was very happy to see Ning Zhan. Order the kitchen to make a table of dishes he likes.
While eating, Ning Zhan looked at Tiehu and smiled and said, "Grandfather, I haven't seen you for a month, your complexion has improved a lot."
Touching his face, Tiehu said cheerfully: "Is it a lot fatter? During this time, your mother led the three of us to eat a lot of delicious food, and always let me eat." The capital gathered together. Tiehu not only feasted on the snacks from all over the country, but also opened his eyes.
Ning Zhan smiled and said, "Grandfather, you like it."
Chunni served Tiehu to sleep and went back to the house. While soaking her feet, she said to Duan Dongzi: “I brought Xiao Bao here if I knew it, so that this child can also see the world.” Hongbo’s eldest son and second son are both in school, and only the younger one is four years old. . But because they were planning to go back, they didn't bring the children because they were afraid of freezing the children on the road.
Duan Dongzi smiled and said: "The child is still young, so there will be opportunities for coming to Beijing in the future."
The couple had a conversation, and Chun Ni suddenly said: "I don't know how Honglang and the others are? Have they bought new year goods." Even if Duan Honglang is not up to date, it is the meat that fell from her body. Every time I think of him farming in the countryside and suffering, I feel uncomfortable.
I used to farm in the countryside, but I only found out after I came out that farming is too hard.
Duan Dongzi suffocated his breath and said, "He is incompetent because he has land and land and freezes to death and starves to death. Also, don't pretend to him in front of him. Daddy is rarely so happy, don't make him angry." Don't talk about Tiehu, that's it. He was irritated when he heard Duan Honglang.
Parents want their children to live well. But Duan Honglang is really an unfilial son. So even in my hometown, I don't want to see Duan Honglang.
As Chunni was worried, Duan Honglang and Webster did not buy any new year goods. The couple thought that Chun Ni would come back, so they wanted to get some money from her for a fat year. As a result, it was not until the middle of the twelfth lunar month that Chunni and the others would not return to the county for the New Year in the capital.
On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Duan Honglang's family didn't even buy meat. At this time, the price of meat was much more expensive than before.
Of course, there is money to buy two catties of meat. But the money for buying new year's goods is gone.
The couple didn't want to eat potato coarse grains on New Year's Eve, so they sent their eldest son Awang to ask Hongbo to borrow money.
I have to say that the husband and wife calculated very well. If the two of them were to borrow money, Hongbo would not give it to them alone. But looking at his thin-dressed nephew whose face was cold and cold, he was still softened.
Hongbo looked at Ngawang and asked, "You are fourteen years old after the Chinese New Year. What are your plans for the future? You can't stay in the countryside for the rest of your life, right?" Food and clothing.
Awang lowered his head, and after a while, he mustered up his courage and said, "Uncle, I want to work in the county. But I'm afraid that no shop is willing to ask me." Before Duan Honglang lost all his family property, Awang had been studying in the school without eating. It's a bit bitter. But when he arrived in the country, Duan Honglang didn't do any work on the grounds that he had injured his arm. The hard work in the field was spread on their brothers. In the past two years, Ngawang has suffered a lot.
Hongbo pondered for a moment and said: "I can arrange an errand for you, but the salary will be very low when you first enter."
Awang hurriedly said, "Uncle, as long as you can learn the skills, you can do without wages."
Hearing this, Hongbo was very pleased: "You can't tell your parents about this, you will say that you found it yourself."
"Uncle, I know." Duan Honglang and Webster started cursing Tiehu and Hongbo every day, and Ngawang also felt that they were hard-hearted. But when he gradually became sensible, he discovered that the problem was his parents, not Tiehu and Hongbo.
Hongbo didn't give Ngawang any money. Instead, he gave him ten catties of meat and twenty catties of white noodles from home, as well as bacon sausages and some candied sweets.
Hongbo has learned to be smart now, and can be seen by a bunch of things in the neighborhood. Even if Duan Honglang said that he didn't care about his eldest brother, no one would believe him. The borrowed money can neither be collected nor seen by others.
Looking at so many things, Awang blushed and said: "Auntie, there are too many, don't give so much."
Fu said with some affection: "It's the New Year, eat a few more meals." Duan Honglang and Webster deserve it, but the children are innocent.
I found some old padded jackets for Ngawang, and said, "Take these clothes back! Don't freeze in such a cold day."
Awang's eyes were a little red, and he lowered his head to force the tears in his eyes back: "Thank you, auntie." The sudden change in the family made the child mature early.
Hongbo told Fu that he was about to find an errand for Ngawang, "You pay attention and see which shop is hiring. It doesn't matter if you pay less, but you must learn something." Go to their shop. Otherwise, Duan Honglang and his wife will use this as an excuse to ask them for money in the future.
Fu said: "I will pay attention."
In fact, Fu did not ask him to repay him, but he was happy to help him when he saw that the child knew how to be grateful. White-eyed wolves like Duan Honglang and Webster are reluctant to take another look.
Hongbo clicked and said, "This is also considered to be a good shoot!" I hope that other nephews will be as sensible as him.
After the New Year, Ning Zhan went to Qiyou. No way, Qiyou was so busy before that he couldn't find anyone at all. I can't go to the yamen to find Qiyou and delay his business.
Qiyou asked in surprise, "You said Tiefangjia is still alive? This guy is still alive?" After more than six years, he also thought that Tiefangjia was dead.
Ning Zhan nodded and said, "After he escaped, he was caught by a rancher. He has been grazing on the grassland for these years." He thought Fang Jia would take refuge in bandits, but he didn't expect this guy to be caught doing coolies.
Qiyou laughed, and said while smiling: "You have become a slave? It seems that God is still long-eyed." From the son of a senior official to a slave, the gap is not so big.
Ning Zhan said: "His Royal Highness, I don't want him to come back."
After laughing, Qiyou said, "This matter is not easy to handle. Fang Hui will definitely tell his uncle about it, and you have to kill him. Uncle knows that he won't say anything, but if Fang Hui knows his tenth Eight or nine will avenge Fang Jia. At that time, your brothers will kill each other, and the most sad one is your uncle." If it were six years ago, he would not hesitate to agree to Ning Zhan's killing Tie Fangjia. But as I grow older, I have a lot of thoughtfulness.
Ning Zhan said: "So, I want my father and eldest brother to think that Tie Fangjia died by accident."
This is easy to say but difficult to do.
"His Royal Highness, do you think there is any colorless and odorless poison in Sister Yu? By the way, it is necessary for people to be unable to find out that it was poisoned and died?" He also thought about this for a long time before thinking of this method.
Qiyou chuckled and said, "I don't know this. But even if there is, I won't give it to you if the male sister." Yu Ruonan is very powerful in making poison, but the poison she made is only available to the secret guards and will not be sold. She occasionally sells medicines for bruises or illnesses.
Ning Zhan said: "Isn't it okay to pay a high price?"
"No matter how much money she pays, she won't sell it." If the high price can impress Sister Ruo Nan, his mother will have to worry. After all, if a master drug maker does not have the bottom line principle, it will cause terrible consequences.
Ning Zhan was a little disappointed.
Qiyou asked: "In fact, to kill a person, poisoning is the most stupid way."
"His Royal Highness, do you have any good ideas?"
Qiyou glanced at Ning Zhan, and said amused: "The companion reader always solves problems for the master. It's good for you, and always let me solve all kinds of troubles for you."
Ning Zhan was also a little embarrassed, but he couldn't believe anyone except Qiyou.
Qiyou said: "Do you know his weaknesses, you can use his weaknesses to start."
Ning Zhan thought for a long time and said, "I know he has a bad temper and can't hold his breath." Others are really unclear.
Qiyou didn't have any idea, and said to death: "Then you think of a good way! By the way, if you can't do it perfectly, you can wait for Fang Hui to rescue him. Then you can sue him to the government, he is. If the imperial court commits a crime, the crime of private escape is a plus. Even if he is not dead, I will send him to iron ore mining."
Ning Zhan was a little disappointed.
Qiyou glanced at him and said amused: "I am an official of the Criminal Department, but I can't enforce the law. If I give you an idea to let my mother know, I can't eat it. Also, forget it this time, in the future If you have something similar, just solve it privately and don't tell me. If not, be careful I catch you."
Knowing that Qiyou was joking, Ning Zhan still said, "I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Qiyou smiled: "I know. If not, I won't indulge you."
When Zeng Chenfu saw Ning Zhan coming back from Prince You's Mansion, he was very concerned.
After hesitating for a long time, Zeng Chenfu asked: "Shizi, did the transfer back to the Yulin Army have gone wrong? It doesn't matter if you can't transfer it back this time, just look for another opportunity."
Ning Zhan smiled upon hearing the words: "As soon as the Queen Mother agreed, this matter is a no-brainer. It's some outside matter, and it's hard to solve the problem when it comes to trouble."
Zeng Chenfu wanted to ask what was the matter, but he finally swallowed it back when he spoke, "I can always find a way to solve it."
Ning Zhan said, "You are right, it must be resolved." The biggest problem with this matter is that Ning Hai can't let Ning Hai know, so he can't use the people in Anyang Bofu.
It was also at this time that Ning Zhan realized that he didn't have his own staff, and he was restrained by things.
It's no wonder that the Queen Empress had let the prince train her own manpower a long time ago, and now Ning Zhan understands the meaning.
Shuangshou looked at Ning Zhan's entangled appearance, and finally gave a suggestion: "My son, I know someone. As long as the money is high, he can do things properly."
"Killer?"
Shuang Shou hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, this person used to be a dartist. Afterwards, he couldn't make ends meet, so he took on some private work by himself. However, the innocence should not be implicated if the innocence is not involved. Also, this person has a very tight mouth. , Will not betray the employer."
Ning Zhan believed in double life. If he was not sure, he would not recommend this person to him: "Then you contact this person to see if it is as reliable as the rumors?"
Within a few days, Shuangshou replied: "Shizi, he said this job can be taken, but it will cost two thousand taels."
Ning Zhan said: "Everyone must think that it was an accidental death, otherwise, don't do it, just stare at him." He can't expose himself, otherwise he would rather hand it over to the government. At least that's right. Even if Tie Fanghui knew, there was nothing to say.
Shuangshou hesitated and asked, "How is the money calculated?"
Ning Zhan nodded and said: "Money is given. In addition, I will pay all the expenses for going to Xihai. If he is not at ease, he can give a deposit of one thousand taels first."
The other party took the deposit and set off to Xihai. nt
