The old lady said, "You are jealous that Shu'er has made a good marriage. Have you ever thought that the Su family is an only daughter, Shu'er and Yu'er sisters are guilty of committing crimes, but have you ever imagined that their sisters have experienced several dangers. This In the past few years, you have seen Shu'er several times at home. She is always on the go. Do you know what she is up to? Do you know if she was plotted against or hunted down? You only saw the brilliance of the Hou Mansion, Can't see the blood on the back, are you willing to let Wan'er and Xie'er live in such fear?"

The eldest lady just woke up from a dream, ignorant, she shook her head subconsciously, the old lady knew that she had listened, she waved her hand, and asked Feng Wan to come to her side, "Wan'er, I have a personal marriage, I believe that grandma will not harm you. "

Feng Wan's eyes were red, "Wan'er knows."

"Today is a conversation between our family behind closed doors. We can't let out half a sentence. It's easy to cause trouble. We all understand."

The three sisters got up and saluted, "Yes!"

After the old lady became angry and even tired, Feng Changlin led the dazed lady away, and the old lady left the three sisters to talk for another quarter of an hour before the three left from Songhe Garden.

Feng Yan gave Feng Yu a gouged look, and asked viciously, "I told you what my grandmother said a long time ago, so you know everything, but you didn't tell me and my sister."

"Fourth sister, you can easily understand what you want to understand, and you can't teach what you don't want to understand." Feng Yu said lightly, "We have been in Beijing for three years, so we should be aware of it even if we don't know much about the world." Feng Yu Looking at Feng Wan with red eyes, "Big sister, it's windy and cold, you should go to bed earlier, my sister will leave."

Feng Yu took Qiu Xiang to the plum garden, Feng Yu stomped her feet, "She did it on purpose, Mr. Fang Ling must have told her earlier, but she didn't tell us, causing grandma to scold mother, and sister."

"Xie'er, why do you always blame Yu'er for things?" Although Feng Wan was sad, she was also helpless, "Keep in mind what grandma said at all times."

She left lightly, Feng Yan caught up and begged for mercy, two maids led the way with lanterns in front, Feng Wan really didn't care about her.

Qiuxiang, Fengwan, and Fengying's girls were all separated by Rong's mother, and they were far away. I couldn't hear what they were talking about. I vaguely heard the old lady swearing. They shouldn't ask. Yu went back to the plum garden.

It was Fengyu who asked, "Qiuxiang, a nest of birds, if some fly up a branch and become a phoenix, while others fall into the abyss and become a crow, will they feel resentful?"

"Girl, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Feng Yu smiled lightly, "I'm expressing my feelings."

What the old lady said, Feng Shu had already mentioned it to her. When she was young, Feng Shu had intentionally or unintentionally told her about the situation in the court, about the relationship between the Zhenbei Hou Mansion and the Su family, and the Feng family.No matter what other people think, and no matter how upright Feng Changlin is, in the eyes of everyone, the Feng family is the people on the boat of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

The Feng family also has the Su family in the south of the Yangtze River, which is as rich as a country, and has a daughter-in-law of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

Feng Yu listened to Feng Shu talk about these things since she was very young, and after interpenetrating with Xie Xun's soul, she understood more clearly the crisis in the Zhenbeihou Mansion, and the crisis in the Zhenbeihou Mansion was the crisis of the Feng family.

Feng Changlin was in the middle of the game, and he knew even more that neither he nor the old lady wanted the lady to go around everywhere, for fear of causing trouble, but for the sake of her sister's marriage, she sacrificed Wan'er and her concubine, Feng Yu She felt that her proud aunt would not be reconciled.

The two returned to the plum garden. Zhang Da was waiting for Feng Yu. Qiu Xiang hung up Feng Yu's cloak and poured her a cup of ginger tea. Zhang Da waited for her to drink tea and said, "Girl, Wang Lizheng's family has made up 80 shi of grain. However, this year's silver has not been turned in. I went to check his accounts. He has no silver deposits in all the banks in the capital, and he doesn't think too much about hiding silver at home. There are three servants in his family, and Nuanyang deducted one. Ask for details In addition to the usual family expenses, Wang Lizheng went out to drink flowers and wine, and the rest of the expenses were not big, and the basic necessities of life at home were generally well-to-do. It stands to reason that the harvest of the field can provide the rest of the silver. It's a mystery, he couldn't hand over the silver and begged so hard, it should be because he has no silver in hand."

Feng Yu put down her teacup, "Where did this money go? And after so many years, there should be a lot of money in the family."

Due to the terrain, there are not many paddy fields in Yilingzhuang.But the area of ​​dry land is huge, including corn, wheat, sorghum, cotton and so on.If it is difficult to guarantee a family's livelihood only by paddy fields, the food includes corn and sorghum in addition to rice.Wheat, in particular, is abundant.People in Yilingzhuang can consign corn and rice to Liangzhuang, which shows that the grain is very sufficient.

Zhang Da hesitated to speak, Feng Yu asked, "What's wrong?"

"Wang Lizheng said that Da Furen asked him to be filial every year, and the extra money was given to Da Furen." Zhang Da lowered his head and told the truth, he dared not hide these things from Feng Yu.

Feng Yu was startled, this Wang Li is the eldest cousin of the Da Furen's family, the relationship is not that close, and the number of times he comes to Feng Mansion is not too much in my impression.Feng Yu thought of Feng Wan's marriage, and also thought of Da Furen's knot in her heart, "Forget it, let's forget about it, how much food did you receive?"

"About 1000 stone."

"There is still food in the granary. After collecting 5000, tell Nuan Yang that when the Zhenbei Hou Mansion wants it, you will hand it over to them."

"Yes!"

Feng Yu chuckled and said, "You are injured, go to the storeroom to get 30 taels, rest at home for a few days, and come back in three days."

"Thank you girl."

Zhenbeihou Mansion.

After Nuan Yang came back, he told Xie Xun about the situation in Zhuangzi. Nuan Yang said, "The main family there has six acres of paddy fields, and more than ten acres of cotton and wheat. In recent years, low income and high sales can make a thousand taels. His family sees This is an ordinary wealthy gentry of a hundred taels. The whereabouts of the money is a mystery. He said it was given to Mrs. Feng, but I don’t quite believe it. Mrs. Feng is a clean and honest official. It is very common for Mrs. Feng to take some filial respect. Too possible. When I investigated his family members, I found that this matter is a bit complicated, and it will involve the East Palace, master, should we continue?"

"Say!" Xie Xun just finished practicing the sword, took off his wrist guard and threw it aside casually, his brows were indifferent.

"Wang Lizheng's eldest son is Donggong Sheren. What's interesting is that Wang Lizheng's eldest son can't read, ride and shoot. When he was young, he ran amok in the countryside. He was a bully and turned into Donggong Sheren. This is not unusual," Nuan Yang said. , no more words.

"East Palace..." Xie Xun looked in the direction of the East Palace. Zhenbeihou's Mansion is very close to the Imperial Palace. Standing in the Observatory Tower in the mansion, you can see the towering and majestic palace. He didn't expect that this matter would involve the East Palace.

Yu Wenjing, the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, is known for being gentle, kind and loving. The late emperor's violent and tyrannical government caused widespread grievances among the people.Therefore, Zhenbeihou on the side of the Qing emperor is the hero of the people of Yanyang.With the assistance of civil and military officials, Emperor Jianming had no bad deeds, and the prince was virtuous and benevolent, winning the hearts of the people.Ningzhou has been in chaos for years. Up to the court and down to the common people, they all shrunk their clothes and went on a diet. Emperor Jianming took the lead in reducing the expenses of the palace staff, and so did the East Palace. The crown prince has already assisted in the government affairs. Emptiness, if the East Palace wants to make money, there are only a few ways.

"Master Hou, do you want to investigate?" Feiying sat on the roof with his sword in his arms. He was not afraid of investigating the East Palace. As long as the master said a word, he would dare to break into the palace.

"Check!" Xie Xun said with a half-smile, "We are short-handed, so I naturally have to give her an answer."

"understand!"
