Chapter 381

People coming from the capital

"It's not easy for the third child and his wife, and my eldest grandson is also suffering." Mrs. Hou read the letter and felt very sad. "How has my third child ever suffered like this before? Mr. Hou, please tell me something.

Words!"

Seeing that Marquis Wu'an didn't say a word, Mrs. Marquis was very dissatisfied.

"What did you say?" Wu Anhou said with a stern face. Ever since the third child said what he said to him before leaving, he has never let go of it. He is usually either at the Yulin Guards Station or in the mansion, and does not even go out to socialize.

Yes, I want to be as low-key as possible, for fear of being in the eyes of the emperor.

He always paid attention to the news in the palace, and was afraid of hearing the news that Princess Anle was missing. He also quietly went to Huguo Temple to burn incense and pray that Princess Anle would be safe and sound.

The third child, the troublemaker, has never listened to him since he was a child. He married a wife and had children, and even cheated him. He just patted his ass and ran away to Shanyun County, leaving him to tremble in Beijing.

You will soon bear the emperor's wrath.

That little bastard only said that he shot Princess Anle with an arrow, but he didn't say where he shot it. He was so daring... The third child was so bold that he just wanted to die on his own, and he also harmed the whole family. He deserved to be demoted to the sky by the emperor.

.

What happened to the poverty-stricken mountains and rivers was not his fault? How could he still have the nerve to write to his family for help? His family was almost killed by him.

"Of course I want to find a way to transfer him back to Beijing, or give him another place to operate. The situation in Shanyun County is too complicated and it is not a place for people to live." Mrs. Hou thought of her son's mention of the big city in his letter.

The grandson was dissatisfied with the climate and had red rashes all over his body. He couldn't help but wipe his tears with a handkerchief.

Marquis Wu'an choked in his heart and looked very ugly, "Transfer back to the capital? The transfer of officials is all the emperor's will. How can I have the ability? Now that I know that Shanyun County is suffering, what have I been doing? I'm already in my twenties.

He is a man, and his actions are not safe at all. Adjust whatever tune you want, and let him stay there and experience with peace of mind."

As soon as he flicked his sleeves, he wanted to leave, but Madam Hou held him back, "What do you mean, Mr. Hou? You don't care about the third child anymore? The emperor ordered him to do this job, and it was not because he wanted to go. According to Mr. Hou, he is the third child.

What did you do?" She stared at Marquis Wu'an's face and couldn't help grabbing his arm harder, "Master Marquis, tell me the truth, did the third child do something?"

Mrs. Hou felt very innocent, "If he wants a craftsman, just send him a craftsman."

"Where can I find a craftsman for him?" The woman said, thinking about the problem simply, "Even if I find him, it's thousands of miles away, how can he be willing to go?"

"real?"

"How can it be that simple? It's just money, manpower... What your son wants is a craftsman, what can the servants in the mansion do?" Marquis Wu An said angrily.

"Of course it's true." Marquis Wu An lowered his eyelids, feeling extremely angry. It was obviously the third child who caused the problem, but he still had to find a way to solve it for him.

Yu Zhi looked at Wen Jiuxiao with something wrong in his eyes, "It makes sense that the fragrance is far away and the smell is close."

She only has two sons, but the Marquis has four sons, and the third son is not in the capital. Wouldn’t the things in the house be cheaper for the two bastards? No, the Marquis has to take care of her!

Mrs. Hou directly took the money from the public account, went to find craftsmen, and went to buy things. In seven or eight days, she loaded more than ten carts. It was really hard to find craftsmen. The steward ran around for a month before she found two people who were willing to go to the mountain.

From Yun County.

He didn't know at all that if Marquis Wu'an didn't count on his son, Mrs. Hou still had to count on him! The reason why she bothered so much was because she didn't want the concubine to take advantage of her. Instead of taking advantage of the concubine, it would be better to take advantage of her old man.

Third, her son works as an official outside, and his family provides him with some subsidies. Isn't this the case in Beijing? No one can say anything bad about her.

Marquis Wu'an...

The large house next to the county government office has been built. It is like a residential area and is divided into several areas. They are a whole and are independent when the small door is closed. The warehouse for storing salt is built here, and the workshop for purifying salt is built here.

Also here.

I carried a lot of things, so I couldn't walk fast on the road. It took me more than a month to reach Shanyun County. By this time, the salt fields on the seaside had already produced a lot of salt. Car after car, they were all brought back at night.

With a flick of his sleeve, he was really gone this time.

Mrs. Hou gritted her teeth angrily and cursed secretly, "This old thing."

Wen Jiuxiao understood what she meant, but why was your mother so kind to you? Wen Jiuxiao didn't expect that his mother not only sent the craftsman and things, but also brought him 10,000 taels of silver, of which 5,000 taels were

The money was taken from the public account, and the other five thousand taels belonged to my mother's private house.

Yu Zhi read the letter from her mother-in-law and saw that her mother-in-law had given her so many things, all of which were for use, and there were actually two craftsmen. By coincidence, one of them knew how to bake bricks.

Can he say it? If he says it, the entire Houfu will still be unpopular and panicked?

Taking advantage of the situation, he sat back and said, "No, you are a woman, you just need to take good care of the inner house, what are you thinking about all day long? Don't you know that the third child is a stable person? What can he do? He can only focus on it.

Are you thinking about going abroad or joining the cabinet?"

Marquis Wu'an was still unhappy, "I'm very busy, but I don't have time to find craftsmen for him. As long as the third child is capable, he can still achieve political achievements without help from the family. Let him work hard outside with peace of mind." This son he

Probably not.

Mrs. Hou didn't have the patience to wait any longer. Just two, and sent a steward to Shanyun County to deliver things.

Mrs. Hou was dumbfounded, thought for a while, and said: "Money can make the devil grind the mill. If you use a lot of silver, I don't believe that you can't find a craftsman who is willing to go."

Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes at Marquis Wu An, "If this is the case, why don't you help your son? He can't be mobilized... Didn't the third child say that there is too poor there and he lacks manpower? Then you can send him some money, and then

Divide some slaves from the mansion and send them to the south together."

Mrs. Hou believed it. She was vaguely aware of her son's ambition, but she didn't expect that the third child actually wanted to join the cabinet. If there was a cabinet minister in the family, then the Houfu would be able to go sideways in Beijing.

Secondly, Wen Jiuxiao is very capable. She was able to become the Young Minister of Dali Temple in the past. Who can guarantee that he will not be able to join the cabinet in the future? She will be the mother of the elder, how glorious!

Regarding the fact that his father did not send a word, although the steward helped to make up for it and said that the Marquis was at the guardhouse when he set off. But Wen Jiuxiao knew very well. To be honest, he actually didn't have much hope when he wrote to the capital. His father's attitude

It was also within his expectation, so he couldn't say he was disappointed or not.

The steward rested for three days and then set off back to Beijing with about ten cars. They were all local specialties from Shanyun County and were not worth much, but there was a whole car of refined salt among them.

Wen Jiuxiao told the manager that the matter of refined salt should be kept secret and only Mrs. Hou knew about it.
