Li Wang has been married to Li Zhong since she was sixteen years old. Although she has a bad temper and the two often fight and fight, their relationship has always been very good. Now that she sees her man die in front of her, how can she not feel heartbroken?
She is not a person who is good at expressing her feelings, nor can she say sweet words. She will only use actions to prove her love for her man!
Seeing the bright scissors stabbing her heart, Tang Yuxiang was frightened and forgot to avoid it.
Zhidong and Zhiqiu were too far away. Although they had already raised their legs and rushed towards this side, it was too late to stop them. At this moment, two people moved at the same time. One was Aunt Shuang. She believed that Tang Yuxiang was
Lin Jingzhi's noble lady had no choice but to die. In addition, she had previously pointed out that Li Yun and Li Jian were the closest to Tang Yuxiang, so she suddenly pounced forward, trying to push Tang Yuxiang away.
There was another one, Aunt Yu. When she saw the cold and shining weapon, her originally distracted eyes suddenly brightened up. She instinctively took a half-step forward with her left leg, and kicked out her right leg like lightning.
Seeing that the scissors were about to pierce into the enemy's chest, Li Wangshi suddenly felt a strong force coming from her chest, and then she raised her body and flew backwards.
With a sound of 'Bang!', her round body hit the ground hard. As dust rose, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall opened their mouths and were shocked. How heavy is Wang Li? Someone can actually kick her into the air!
At this time, Aunt Shuang could no longer restrain herself, and she threw herself on Tang Yuxiang's body. Then the two of them turned into gourds rolling on the ground. The sound of chairs falling to the ground woke up everyone in the hall.
Immediately, Zhidong and Zhiqiu rushed forward to help Tang Yuxiang up, and then looked up and down, fearing that their master was injured somewhere.
Aunt Wan was also frightened, but she recovered quickly. She took a few steps forward, helped Aunt Shuang up, and dusted her body with her own hands. She was very admired in her heart.
Only Aunt Rou was the timidest. She stood there in a daze and was at a loss. She only pursed her small mouth until there was no trace of blood.
"Poisonous woman, I can't kill you this time, so you are destined to be lucky!" Wang Li swallowed a mouthful of blood with a ferocious look on her face.
Tang Yuxiang's arm was originally injured. After the impact, it would inevitably hit her when she fell to the ground. She was gasping in pain when she heard Mrs. Li Wang said this, and the anger in her chest boiled up.
She rose up immediately. She is kind and good-tempered, but she is not weak.
"Ms. Li Wang, you say I am a poisonous woman, then I want to ask you, who are you and how many bad things have you done in your life? Just yesterday, you led a group of people to beat Zhang Er's mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law.
He was seriously injured, and you, the man who has done all the evil things, knew clearly that his son, the husband, was seriously injured, and even lost the money for medicine.
Not to mention, you actually go to other people's doors and give them advice on how to sell their unweaned children. Mrs. Li Wang, you are also a mother. Compare your feelings to others, will you sell your own children?
Let me tell you, Li Zhong deserves to die!"
After saying this in one breath, Tang Yuxiang felt that her chest was no longer as stuffy as before. After hearing this, Zhang Er's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were already holding their heads and crying.
Raising her uninjured hand and pointing at Zhang Er's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Tang Yuxiang said word by word: "Who is the poisonous woman and who is the evil person? God is watching from above. There are also people like them who have been persecuted.
I'm watching, and I can't help you talking nonsense!"
Shocked by the sudden aura from Tang Yuxiang, Li Wang was so speechless that she could no longer speak.
Li Feng, who was standing aside, finally came to his senses at this time. He didn't want to die, he was still young, so he took two steps forward, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Second Grandma, I know I was wrong, please."
Please spare me this time. What my father and mother do has nothing to do with me."
At this point, Li Feng suddenly turned his head to Wang Li and cursed angrily: "Are you crazy? How dare you assassinate the second grandma? If you don't want to live anymore, don't hold me back!"
Looking at her son's gap-toothed face, Mrs. Li was startled at first, and then her face turned gray. She acted impulsively and never liked to use her brain. After receiving this scolding, she realized that assassinating her master was a serious crime.
If she doesn't survive, even her son and daughter-in-law will have to be buried with her.
Tang Yuxiang was supported by Zhidong and Zhiqiu, and sat on the chair again. She looked at the mother and son with cold eyes, without any sympathy in her heart. After all, this Li Wang's behavior was too abominable. In her eyes, she could only
I see the good and bad in others, but never think about how many bad things I have done.
Li Feng is not a good person, and he does many evil things.
"Second...Second Grandma, it was my servant who was confused for a moment and did such a wrong thing. I beg you, sir, to spare my son." For the sake of her son, Mrs. Li endured the severe pain in her chest and crawled out.
He got up and kowtowed to Tang Yuxiang, but after just two or three kowtows, there was blood on his forehead.
The anger in Tang Yuxiang's chest had not completely dissipated at this time. She pointed at Zhang Er's wife and shouted coldly: "You know you feel sorry for your son and plead for him, but when you started to harm others, did you ever think that their son was also pregnant?"
In October, flesh and blood were born!”
Mrs. Li did not answer, but kept kowtow to beg for mercy.
Li Feng, on the other hand, begged for mercy and cursed Wang Li a few times. When he saw Tang Yuxiang sitting in the upper position, he refused to let go. In the end, he even climbed over and kicked her twice.
"That's enough! There are state laws and family rules, and there are rules for how to punish them!" Tang Yuxiang glanced coldly at Li Feng, who had no spine at all. With a wave of his hand, Hu Er and others swarmed up and took Li Wang's family away.
The bodies of Li Feng and Manager Li were dragged down.
She would not sympathize with such a family, especially if Li Feng was a white-eyed wolf who dared to beat his mother. Even if such a person was saved and kept alive, it would be nothing more than a waste of food.
Hu Er came out of the hall, hesitated for a moment, then left alone and ran towards the hall. After all, Manager Li was secretly beaten to death by a few of them. He had to report it to the housekeeper as soon as possible, otherwise the second mistress would be afraid of Mrs. Lin.
If you punish them and push them out, that would be bad.
Tang Yuxiang calmed down the complainants in the hall and persuaded them to retreat. Seeing that the second grandmother had really made the decision for them, Zhang Er's wife kowtowed to her before leaving.
Now only Master Tang Yuxiang and several aunts are left in the hall. Tang Yuxiang originally wanted to thank Aunt Yu for saving her life, but Aunt Yu just stood there quietly with cold eyes and said nothing, which confused her.
Embarrassed, Aunt Shuang was the same, neither cold nor indifferent. After hearing her thanks, she just nodded slightly.
Manager Li's death was not a trivial matter, so Tang Yuxiang was not in the mood to pay attention to the two aunts' alienation from her at this time. After saying a few words of greetings, she asked them to leave. Before leaving, several aunts kowtowed again.
She was stopped.
Zhidong waited for the aunts to leave the hall, and then asked anxiously: "Second Grandma, now that Manager Li is dead, what should we do?"
"I don't know, just take it one step at a time." Tang Yuxiang rubbed her temples weakly, her head hurt again. She was really not sure whether Mrs. Lin would go crazy. Now, she was a little envious of these aunts.
, although he is also the master, he does not have to bear the responsibility.
"Second Grandma, you don't have to be afraid. If the old lady insists on punishing you, just say that Manager Li was accidentally beaten to death by those servants and it's none of your business." Zhiqiu rolled his eyes in a circle and offered.
A plan.
At this time, although Zhiqiu was also worried, she was more excited. The master had the power, and she would also follow the excitement of the scenery. Growing up, she had only been beaten by others, and how could she be like this today?
Feel free to slap others in the face.
Tang Yuxiang shook her head when she heard this. She naturally knew that the death of Manager Li was strange, but at the time of the incident, she was the only master in charge of the hall, and this matter was originally entrusted to her by Mrs. Lin to take care of it. Now it has happened.
What's wrong, if someone dies, she will naturally bear the greatest responsibility, so if she really shirks her responsibility, in the end her punishment will not be reduced, but she will get a few more servants.
Those servants were the right-hand assistants around the butler. She couldn't confess them just like that, otherwise she would offend the butler invisibly.
If she had known that these people were so cold-hearted, Tang Yuxiang would never have let the housekeeper keep them here. Now that they are good and they leave, she has to take the blame. After thinking for a long time, there is nothing she can do.
The feeling in my chest became more and more stuffy, and finally I slammed the table and stopped thinking about it.
"Let's go, let's report back to the old lady!" If you extend your head, it will be a knife, and if you shrink your head, it will be a knife. Sitting here and waiting is of no use. Instead, it is useless to be afraid.
Tang Yuxiang folded the pages of large paper and put them in her sleeves, and left the hall. She wanted to go directly to Mrs. Lin, but halfway there, she met the accounting clerk, Zhu Hou.
"Second Grandma, I've been waiting here for you for a long time." Zhu Hou took two steps forward, bent down and gave a salute.
"Oh? What do you want from me?" Zhu Hou had just retreated from the hall, and now he came to the door again, which made Tang Yuxiang very confused.
Zhu Hou first looked around and saw that no servants were passing by, then he put his hand into his sleeve and took out a stack of paper, "Second Grandma, these things should be useful to you, please accept them."
Seeing his master wink at him, Zhidong stepped forward to take it, and then handed it to Tang Yuxiang.
Zhu Hou did not wait for Tang Yuxiang to finish reading. He just said, "Please take care of me in the future," and then left.
"Second Grandma, what is written on this?" Zhiqiu asked curiously when he saw that Zhu Hou had walked away and his master was still standing there watching carefully.
Tang Yuxiang breathed a sigh of relief, folded the papers, and put them into her sleeves, "These are evidence that Manager Li was greedy for ink in the past. I did some calculations, and they turned out to be a thousand taels!"
"What? There are so many?" Zhiqiu covered her mouth and took a breath of cold air.
Zhidong was not very interested in those numbers. He just frowned and asked softly: "Second Grandma, what is the idea of this accounting manager? Why do I give you these things?"
"Please please me!" Although there were more evidences of Manager Li's crime, Tang Yuxiang's frown did not relax at all. These things were of little use at all. The most important thing now is whether she will be punished or not. The most important thing is to see Manager Li.
In the eyes of Mrs. Lin, how high her status is.
Lin Jingzhi and Shi Mo left the Lin Mansion one after another, and did not let other servants follow. They turned left and right on the street. After walking for about half an hour, they stopped in front of a courtyard in the south of the city.
Later, because Yang Wei's identity needed to be extremely confidential, they often met in different places.
Shi Mo looked around a few times and saw that there was no suspicious person following him, then he gently knocked on the door. The people in the courtyard heard the knock on the door and asked, "Who is it?"
Lin Jingzhi had never heard this person's voice before, so he was definitely not Yang Wei.
"It's me, the second master is here." Shi Mo replied, and with a creak, the door was opened. The person who opened the door was a man in his thirties, wearing a coarse cloth gown, with regular features.
With dark skin, he doesn't look like a secret guard, but more like a farmer.
Lin Jingzhi and Shi Mo quickly saw the door open and walked into the small courtyard. The courtyard was not big, with a gravel road at their feet and a few small trees scattered around. There were five rooms in total.
Yang Wei was standing on the steps not far away. When Lin Jingzhi approached, he quickly knelt down on one knee and worshiped: "Slave Yang Wei, please bow to the second master."
Because he had something important to ask, Lin Jingzhi just gave him a little help and asked as he walked, "Is the locust plague really breaking out? Is the news reliable?"
Yang Wei stood up, bent down and followed Lin Jingzhi, and replied: "Absolutely reliable, I have received six or seven flying pigeon letters."
Walking into the hall, Lin Jingzhi took a seat at the top. When Shi Mo saw there was warm tea on the table, he picked it up and poured a cup for his master.
"Bring it to me and see."
Upon hearing this, Yang Wei reached into his arms, took out several pieces of paper three inches long and two fingers wide, and handed them over.
Lin Jingzhi took it in his hand and took a look. He saw that the note was written very concisely, with only two large square characters, 'It's urgent!'. It seemed that the locust plague had really broken out in advance.
"Yang Wei, how did you go about the last time I asked you to purchase grain?" The locust plague broke out in advance, so the purchase of grain will have to be accelerated. Although the court is afraid that the natural disaster will disturb people's panic, it will block the news for a period of time.
But this time the locust plague has spread all over the four northern continents, and it cannot be suppressed.
It can be expected that although this natural disaster will not shake the foundation of the Daqian Dynasty, it should not be underestimated. After all, the continuous wars in the northern border have made the treasury empty. If we want to rectify the disaster, we may not be able to get much silver supplies.
"Back to the Second Master, new grain is about to come out now, so the price of old grain is extremely low. It has dropped by nearly 30% compared to the past. And the supply is sufficient. Until today, about 1.5 million have been purchased.
More than half of the load of rice and grain has been loaded onto the carriage and is on its way to Luocheng."
After hearing this, Lin Jingzhi calculated silently for a while and breathed a long sigh of relief. The locust plague is now only a small-scale outbreak. In other words, there are still at least five or six days before a truly large-scale locust plague. By then, even if the imperial court suppresses it,
The news cannot be suppressed, and it will only be ** days before it reaches Liuzhou.
Although many merchants have their own stores in the north, unless they can predict in advance that there will be a locust plague this year like myself, it will take six or seven days for them to find out and send back the news.
These six or seven days are enough for the Lin family to store a large amount of rice.
"Okay, just buy it at this rate. Don't stop. After receiving a certain amount, you can quickly load the truck and pull it back and forth. Then you have to take advantage of the night to store the grain in a courtyard outside the city. Also, you have to cast the net.
Come on, don’t make centralized purchases, let alone let people know that it’s my Lin family who is secretly purchasing grain and grass.”
When Yang Wei heard this, he nodded cautiously.
"By the way, have those small industries all over the north stockpiled grain and grass in advance?" Lin Jingzhi turned his head and looked at Yang Wei.
These intelligence points are equivalent to the eyes and ears of the Lin family. They are very important and must not be missed.
"Back to the second master, I made preparations in advance when I discovered that there would be a locust plague in the north."
"Well, just prepare them. But you'd better remind them that once the locust plague breaks out, there will be a huge shortage of food. In order to have enough food, some people will inevitably rebel and even cause riots. They should be as low-key as possible.
, don’t attract attention, and try to hide the food in a hidden place and don’t put it in the store. If the situation is urgent, you can also close the store door, as long as it can ensure the smooth flow of intelligence information. "
Seeing Xu Wei nodded in agreement, Lin Jingzhi waved his hand and asked him to retreat. The locust plague was about to break out, and he had more and more things to deal with.
Just which one to deal with first?
As his thoughts were circulating, a flash of light flashed through his mind!
There is only tomorrow, and I will be on the list. Everyone who thinks this book is good, please save it... Sigh, if you still have votes, I will also throw in a dd
