V2.Chapter 51

On March 17th, when the sky was bright, the construction site of the Yu family started. The sound of ding ding dong dong, mixed with the shouting of men, broke the tranquility of the small village.

Little Tie Dan rolled over, fell to the ground with a thud, and instantly woke up.

Yu Wan got up early. Most of the people who worked on the construction site were from the village, but also from other villages. They were all recruited by Yu Feng. Gotta go to the workshop this morning to help.

Little Tie Dan rubbed his butt, which was almost broken, and wanted to crawl back into the bed to continue sleeping, but he turned his head inadvertently and saw the box under the bed.

Well?

When is there an extra box under the bed?

Yesterday, I was hiding under the bed to eat candy with my sister Zhen Zhen, but I didn't find the box!

Did my sister hide something delicious?

"Suck it~" Little Tie Dan sucked in his saliva, crawled under the bed and fished out the box.

Yu Wan went to the backyard to wash up, swept the floor, fed the chickens, picked up the eggs, and planned to go back to the house to change clothes and go out, but she saw Xiao Tie Dan sitting on the ground with a bewildered face, putting the eggs in front of her. Holding a large box, he was holding half of the red wedding dress in his hand, and the other half of the wedding dress fell into the box.

"Sister, what is this? Did you buy new clothes? Look good..." Little Tie Dan looked at Yu Wan who was at the door, like a curious baby, surprised and exclaimed.

At this time, Yu Shaoqing finished breakfast and came over to ask Yu Wan to eat.

Yu Wan hurriedly stuffed the wedding dress back into the box, and the moment Yu Shaoqing stepped over the threshold, the box lid was closed!

This hurricane-like reaction and speed made Little Tie Dan stunned.

Yu Shaoqing took a full view of her daughter's nervousness, and looked meaningfully at the box that was being covered up by her daughter. Then, pretending to see nothing, she said calmly, "Awan, the meal is ready, come and eat. Well, iron egg still can't sleep? Come and eat even if you don't sleep."

After all, he turned around and went to the stove.

Yu Wan looked at Little Tie Dan and said solemnly, "Don't mess with Sister A's things in the future."

Little Iron Egg: "Oh."

"Go wash your face." Yu Wan glanced outside the door.

Little Tie Dan obediently went out, and Yu Wan opened the box and looked at the elegant wedding dress. The bright red color reflected in her eyes, making her heart thump up. .

There was another movement in the main room, Yu Wan hurriedly put the wedding dress in, and closed the box. This time, she did not forget to lock it.

"Father, do you know what's in Sister's suitcase?" After Xiao Tie Dan washed up, he chased after Yu Shaoqing in the kitchen.

Yu Shaoqing was overjoyed when he was called by his son's father, but he was not the happiest. He smiled mysteriously and said to his son, "Of course my father knows."

Little Iron Egg: "Huh?"

Yu Shaoqing said smugly, "That's what your elder sister did for her father. Don't tell anyone else."

That bright red dress... yes, yes, yes... was it made by my sister for my father?

Looking at Dad's reaction, it seems that he is very satisfied, likes it, and wants to wear it? !

Little Tie Dan's brain made up for the picture of his muscular daddy wearing a little red dress, but he was shocked by the thunder!

Little Tie Dan almost cried: "You said that you are a good big man, how can you have such a hobby?"

Yu Shaoqing: "..."

...

After breakfast, Yu Wan went to the old house of the Yu family. The carriage of Zuixianju had already arrived to collect today's goods. Yu Wan ordered the goods and said to the clerk, "You can order it again."

"No need, no need!" The guy laughed, "The second-master's goods have never gone wrong, you just need to order!"

"Let's have a little more." Yu Wan insisted.

"Hey!" The guy checked the eight hundred catties of stinky tofu one by one, "That's right."

The fermented bean curd was sold for three days yesterday, and there is no need to supply it for the past two days.

It's the sour bamboo shoots, and the first batch of goods will probably be available by the end of the month.

In the middle of next month, you will be able to receive this month's payment. As for the restaurant's dividend, it will have to wait until the end of the year.

The guy drove the carriage away, Yu Wan returned to the main room, the uncle, aunt and Yu Shaoqing were sitting together with an abacus on the table, as if they were carefully clearing something, with a dignified expression.

Yu Wan walked over and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there not enough money to build a house?"

The initial investment in the workshop is too large, and they can’t get back to the original cost for a few months. They have spent almost all the money they earned a year ago. Today, they still owe the wages of stone, bricks and wages, and they only need to wait for the first batch next month. Payment, first settle a half.

"It's not this." The aunt said, "At the other end of the construction site, your father filled in the army salaries and borrowed some from Aunt Bai, so you don't have to worry about money for the time being."

Yu Shaoqing has been in the military camp for six years. She has food and lodging in the camp. She doesn't go out to spend the day and drink.

And Jiang Shi took it out and gave it to the aunt and asked her to use the money to build a house.

Otherwise, the aunt loves Jiang, it is hard to find such a concubine with a lantern.

"Since it's not about the money, what are you worrying about?" Yu Wan asked.

The uncle said, "It's about Tie Dan's enlightenment. Tie Dan is not too young. Your eldest brother and second brother have already gone to Mongolia to study at this age."

It's just that the two of them didn't live up to their expectations, they refused to study hard, and they didn't go back after a few days.

Lianhua Village was small and did not have its own village school. Before the war, there were three or five villages. After the war, the villagers had a hard time, and the village schools collapsed one by one. Now, only Xinghua Village is left.

Thinking of the relationship between Xinghua Village and Lianhua Village, where would the uncle and aunt dare to send their little iron eggs there? Doesn't that push the kid into the fire pit?

"So it's for this?" Yu Wan suddenly realized that she didn't understand the ancient education system, and almost delayed her younger brother. Thinking that her younger brother is already six years old, it is time to go to school, "Isn't there a private school in the town?"

If she remembered correctly, Zhao Heng was studying in the town in the past?

The private school in the town is much more expensive than the village school. It costs one or two silver to repair it in a month. It is not difficult. They are doing business now, and they can still afford one or two silver per month. Private schools have to take exams, and they will only be accepted after passing the exams.

"Mengxue also needs to be tested?" Yu Wan was surprised.

"Yeah." The uncle has already inquired about Li Zheng, "Mostly, they study in the village school for a year or two, and then go to the private school to study the Mongolian school."

Zhao Heng also got into the exam back then, and he was ranked first. After that, he was ranked first every year. That boy bastard was a bastard, but he was really a good material for studying.

The uncle sighed: "Lizheng means, let Xiao Tiedan go to Xinghua Village to study for a while, now that your daddy is back, with your daddy here, I understand that the people in Xinghua Village will not be as arrogant as before. ."

Yu Wan thought for a while and said, "Why don't I go to the town to find out what they took in previous years."

As a college entrance examination talent in the 21st century, preparation for the exam is her strength. As long as she finds out the scope of the questions, she can turn the little iron egg into a small book egg without sending it to the village school in Xinghua Village.

...

Yu Wan went to town.

Shuanzi wanted to drive an ox cart to send her, but she refused, and the ox cart hadn't gone fast.

It's just that, I don't know if it's her illusion, it always feels like someone is staring at her along the way, but when she turns around, she doesn't find another person.

"Aiya, what's the wind blowing the second master?" Shopkeeper Cui was thinking about the abacus. When he looked up, he saw Yu Wan walking into the Baiyu Building, and he quickly put down his abacus and went up to meet him.

He already knew about Yu Wan's cooperation with Zuixianju, and thanks to Yu Wan's blessing, he had a relationship with the deputy leader of the Jiangzuo Business Alliance. With his current status, he couldn't match up with Qin Ye. Everything was due to Yu Wan's face.

Yu Wan first greeted politely, and then Daoming came.

"What should I do!" Shopkeeper Cui snorted, "Isn't it just the exam questions of the private school? Master Zheng of the private school is an old friend of mine. I'll go to Zheng's house tonight and bring you the exam questions!"

Yu Wan didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and couldn't help but feel in a good mood: "Thank you, Manager Cui."

Shopkeeper Cui said angrily: "My own person, if you say that, you will be seen outside!"

Yu Wan curved the corners of her lips: "How is Miss Bai?"

Shopkeeper Cui said energetically: "Okay! It's okay! The master invited the master to do a ritual in the White House, and he also invited a famous doctor from the rivers and lakes to prescribe a panacea for the young lady. The 'smallpox' is more than half gone! The master also said, Miss The marriage is bumpy, there are times in life, and there is no need to force it. The master was horrified when he heard this, thinking that the young lady was destined to be unmarried, and the reason why he got smallpox was because of the marriage he insisted on , the master has spoken, no one should force the young lady to marry in the future, the young lady will marry if she wants to, if not, the master will support her for the rest of her life!"

That's what a father would say.

Knowing that Bai Tang was doing well, Yu Wan was relieved.

Now that everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng to see when her brother will summon up the courage to propose marriage to the White House.

but……

Thinking of something, Yu Wan's eyes showed a hint of shyness of a young girl.

I don't know who will come to propose marriage first...

"Little Lord!"

In the young master's mansion, Ying Shisan strode into the study with great strides.

Yan Jiuchao closed the half-turned almanac without a trace.

Ying Shisan glanced at the yellow calendar that he turned over and curled up, uh... I didn't stay in bed early in the morning, just got up and watched this? People haven't responded to the things you just sent out, so you're picking your day?

"What's the matter?" Yan Jiuchao asked indifferently.

Ying Thirteen handed Yan Jiuchao a small note untied from the carrier pigeon: "Ying Six has news, Gongcheng has found a clue, but it is a little tricky. He begged to send two dead men."

After reading the note, Yan Jiuchao threw it into the brazier and burned it: "You said last night that you found Zhou Huai's trace, where is it?"

Shadow Thirteen said: "Also in Gongcheng."

"It's such a coincidence." Yan Jiuchao's fingers tapped on the table a few times, "You go to prepare the car, this young master will go to Gongcheng in person."

Ying Shisan hesitated for a moment: "...Yes."

...

In the Xianfu Palace, a man in black knelt on one knee on the floor of the side hall: "This subordinate kowtows to the master."

The side hall only Xu Xianfei and the maid in charge.

Concubine Xu Xian gave the mother in charge a wink, and the mother in charge understood, walked to the door, and alerted the two to the surrounding movement.

"Can you find it?" Concubine Xu Xian asked.

The man in black said: "I found it, but...not only one of the subordinates is staring at her, but there is another person who seems to be...the spy of the Second Highness."

As expected, Concubine Xu Xian was not surprised. After all, if she hadn't cared so much about her, she wouldn't have even accepted the concubine she chose.

Concubine Xu Xian raised her hand lightly and motioned for the man in black to continue speaking.

The man in black said, "The girl's surname is Yu, and she lives in Lotus Village."

Concubine Xu Xian went to hold the tea cup and said, "Village? Village girl?"

She would never have expected that a son of royal blood would fall in love with a village girl, which is not much better than a woman in a brothel!

Concubine Xu Xian's anger was rising!

The man in black continued, "My subordinates also found out that she once had a marriage contract, and the family revoked her marriage and moved away."

Concubine Xu Xian was so angry that she fell to her knees!

Not only a village girl, but also a village girl who had been divorced... Is her son lame? !

"Also, her father is Yu Shaoqing."

Concubine Xu Xian frowned: "That thousand commander who stole Yan Houye's military exploits?"

"Exactly."

If it is said that the previous one is only from a lowly background, then this point is that the background is stained. Yan Congming is the person the emperor wants to protect. To compete with him for military achievements is to compete with the emperor for military achievements. The emperor thoroughly investigated this matter, but in fact it was just After going through the scene, when Yan Congming felt good, and the limelight of Gong Gao's master passed, the case was finally settled.

In the end, Yu Shaoqing will be imprisoned again.

Concubine Xu Xian clenched her fists and said, "Who is not good for the emperor, how can he like the daughter of a criminal minister? Isn't this a show of being against his father? This palace remembers that this case is handed over to the Second Highness to investigate and deal with it. Yes, how did the Second Highness check?"

The man in black said, "My subordinates don't know, but my subordinates think that since the Second Highness has taken a fancy to Yu Shaoqing's daughter, he will definitely rehabilitate Yu Shaoqing at all costs."

Concubine Xu Xian's head hurt: "You go and tell the Second Highness that this case does not need to be carefully investigated, just say that it is the meaning of this palace!"

"Yes!"

The man in black took his order, and an hour later, he returned to the palace in a hurry.

"What did the Second Highness say?" Concubine Xu Xian looked at him and asked.

The man in black hesitated.

Concubine Xu Xian's eyes sank: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, don't give this palace a hesitation!"

The man in black said bravely: "The Second Highness said that he will definitely investigate this matter to the end."

Concubine Xu Xian knocked over the cup at hand!

The scalding tea splashed her foot, and the maid in charge hurried forward, squatted down, wiped her wet shoes with a handkerchief, and said, "Madam, calm down!"

Concubine Xu Xian was furious: "How do you want Ben Gong to calm down? The son of Ben Gong has a crush on the person His Majesty wants to kill! Does he think he is not eye-catching enough? The county lord of the Xiongnu is about to let His Majesty shove it. In front of him, he can't see right? Ben Gong has done so much for him, he should be blind, right?"

The grandma in charge: "Niangniang!"

The man in black lowered his head.

"You retire first." The commander-in-chief instructed in a cold voice.

The man in black bowed to Concubine Xu Xian and retreated behind the screen.

The maid in charge took off Concubine Xu Xian's shoes, and found that her foot clothes were also wet, so she hurriedly took off her foot clothes.

The tea was boiling hot, and the entire instep was scalded red.

The mistress in charge took the ointment and carefully applied it to Concubine Xu Xian.

Concubine Xu Xian was so angry that she couldn't even notice the pain on her instep: "Bengong has raised such an old son, and this is the first time I have done this against Bengong, but it's for a woman, and Bengong is his mother, so I can still harm Bengong. Can't he?"

The grandma in charge said earnestly: "His Royal Highness has grown up and has his own ideas."

Concubine Xu Xian said angrily: "Two years ago, I told him not to interfere in Xuzhou, but he didn't listen to my advice, what happened? He almost lost his life in Xuzhou, and now he doesn't listen to me, I think he is I don't want the crown prince!"

The mother in charge did not answer.

"What else is there, girl, tell me together!" Concubine Xu Xian seemed to be speaking to the man in black.

The man in black stood behind the screen and said respectfully, "She has contacts with Baiyulou and Zuixianju, and her subordinates listened to the guy in Zuixianju calling her the second master."

"Second master of Zuixianju?" Concubine Xu Xian narrowed her eyes.

...

"Second master! Second master!"

Outside the Yu family's old house, a carriage slowly stopped, and Master Qin couldn't wait to lift the curtain and jump to the ground.

Yu Wan had just returned from town and was peeling bamboo shoots in the backyard when she heard Master Qin's voice and got up to greet him, "Why is Master Qin here at this hour? Isn't Zuixianju busy today?"

"Busy! I'm so busy!" Qin Ye said in high spirits, and entered the hall with Yu Wan.

Seeing that he was sweating profusely, Yu Wan poured him a cup of herbal tea.

Master Qin picked up the cup and drank it all at once. Then he wiped his mouth, exhaled, and said, "You can never guess what I'm here for you for?"

Yu Wan smiled: "I would like to hear the details."

Master Qin said proudly: "Our reputation in Zuixianju has been beaten, and now even the concubine in the palace wants to taste our craftsmanship! Hurry up and put it away, and join me in the palace later!"
