Chapter 266 267 The Temper of Vengeance

Lin Yunjin, Li Yu thought that Li’s mother was also called Lin Yunjin! No wonder Mrs. Lin looked like she had seen a ghost when she saw her that day. If her twin sister was really lost in an accident, shouldn't she be excited and ask when she sees someone who looks like her? But she looked dazed and frightened. Li Yu thought that at this time, he was sure that Li's mother was Lin Yunjin, Lin's lost twin sister, and Lin Yunjin's loss must have been caused by Lin's deliberate harm to her.

It seems that I need to write to my aunt and ask her where Father Li rescued Mother Li, and whether Mother Li has mentioned any other relatives she has and where they are from. After Li Yu thought about it, he picked up a pen and started to write a letter. After he finished writing, he asked Jixiang to send it to Sihai Bank, and asked shopkeeper Chu to help hand it over to the caravan to take to Tongzhou.

In the Wang family, Ah Yue was still locked in the room by Mrs. Wang to copy the women's rings. She looked at the door while writing. She wrote for a long time and still didn't finish a page. When she heard the voice of the little maid and Qingzhu greeting her, after a few breaths passed, Qingzhu After walking in, he bowed his knees and reported: "Miss, the servants and mothers-in-law of the magistrate's office are very cautious. When talking to them, if the affairs of the magistrate's family are mentioned, they will avoid talking about it. If they continue to talk, they will ignore them. .”

Ah Yue turned the pen in her hand and thought: She doesn't talk about the master's family with outsiders, and she doesn't reveal the master's family affairs. It seems that that bitch still has a good way of managing the inner house! Ah Yue was so angry that she wrinkled the girl's ring that she had just copied, and sneered, "Do you think that if you can't buy this servant, I can't do anything to you?"

Ah Yue looked at Qingzhu sinisterly and ordered: "Qingzhu, ask Wang Zhong to stay outside the government office from now on, keeping an eye on that bitch. As soon as she is alone, she will be kidnapped and thrown into the mountains to feed her." Wolf."

Qingzhu looked at Ah Yue's expression and understood that with her retaliatory temperament, it was impossible for her to listen to her persuasion. However, as a maid, if she did not dissuade her from acting, she would not be able to escape her involvement if something happened.

"Miss, think about it again! She is a first-class lady. If something happens, you and the Wang family will be involved."

Ah Yue glanced at Qingzhu impatiently, took out a banknote and a few pieces of broken silver from the drawer, and handed it to Qingzhu, "Okay, don't say it. Wang Zhong is the best among the guards. If that day With Wang Zhong, we will not suffer any loss."

After Ah Yue finished speaking, she looked at Qingzhu with cold eyes, "I'm warning you, don't even think about telling my mother and grandmother. You have to know that you are my girl."

Qingzhu saw that the dissuasion was useless and felt that he had fulfilled his responsibility. He bent his knees and saluted, "Yes, Miss."

Qingzhu went to the outer courtyard and found Wang Zhong in the guard room. Wang Zhong looked about 20 years old, not tall, extremely strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a simple and honest look.

Qingzhu told Wang Zhong what Ah Yue had ordered, and then told Wang Zhong: "Brother Wang, you must be careful. Don't do anything unless you are absolutely sure. If traces are exposed, we will not be able to escape the involvement."

Wang Zhong looked at Qingzhu's cautious look and nodded cautiously: "Thank you, Miss Qingzhu, I will be careful."

Qingzhu took out a money bag and handed it to Wang Zhong, "Brother Wang, the lady asked me to give this to you. She told you not to come back these days and asked you to rent a house to live in so as not to be discovered. "

"Okay, I'll pack it up and leave." Wang Zhong took the money bag, turned around, went into the house, changed his clothes, and went out.

Ruyi and Chu Feng went to Sihai Bank and completed the delivery procedures. Chu Feng arranged for someone to accompany him to the outside of Xicheng to check out the place.

After riding horses for half an hour, a few people arrived at the large wasteland at the foot of the mountain outside the West City and a shallow mountain full of peach trees.

After a cursory look, he went back to the yamen to apply for the land deed again, then returned to the yamen, handed the land deed to Li Yu, and reported: "Madam, that man pawned five hundred taels of silver, plus the interest and deed tax, the total is It cost seven hundred and fifty taels. The wasteland is very large and there are two hills. The hills are full of peach trees. The person who accompanied me to see the land said that the peaches produced by the peach trees are all sour peaches. tasty."

The peach trees all over the mountain bear sour peaches! Don’t be afraid, as long as you find a good variety that can be grafted! Check it out later.

Li Yu opened the land deed and saw that there were more than 900 acres of wasteland and more than 1,000 acres of barren mountains. He sighed and said, "We got a big advantage. We spent so little money on such a large piece of land."

Ruyi smiled and said: "I also told shopkeeper Chu that the same thing, but the shopkeeper said that the bank has taken a lot of advantage by cooperating with you. Selling this land to others only costs a few hundred taels more. If you give it to them, they will make more!"

Li Yu smiled and said: "You take the kind words I said seriously! The land has been bought now, and it will be March soon. If you hurry up, you can still plant some rice and corn for a season. Hurry and go outside the city to have a look. , Hire more people at the city gate and take them to the wasteland to start work."

Ruyi smiled and said: "Madam, after hiring the manpower, we still need to build the Zhuangzi. Madam, you have to go and see how to build it?"

"Okay, when Jixiang comes back, let him hire craftsmen to build the house."

Ruyi bowed and walked out of the city. Wang Zhong came out of the teahouse diagonally opposite the government office and followed Ruyi quietly to the outside of the city. He hid aside and waited for Ruyi to hire someone, then followed him quietly. When we arrived at the foot of the mountain outside the west city, we watched for a while before turning back to the city.

Li Yu put the land deed into the space, went to the front yard, and said to Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Yun: "You guys clean up, and later go to the foot of the mountain outside the west city with Jixiang to cook for those who are clearing up wasteland."

"Yes, ma'am." The two agreed and packed up.

Li Yu went back to the backyard and asked Mrs. Liu to ask the grain store to deliver a few bags of rice before going to Xiaoyu's yard.

"Madam, you're here!" Xiaoyu pointed to the room with a smile and whispered: "The two of them danced hahaha for a long time. They were so sweaty that they followed Gu Yu back. They took a shower and dried their hair. Fell asleep."

Li Yu went into the house and took a look at Yangyang who was lying with Qijin. He came out and told Xiaoyu about buying the wasteland, and said with a smile: "Awei and Mr. have been to the free clinic for so many days, but I don't know if I can find the right one." There is no wasteland, but we bought suitable wasteland at home. Spring sowing is coming soon. We have to work hard to open some and we can grow rice for another season."

Xiaoyu did the math and said, "Yes! It's already more than half of February, so we need to hurry up, otherwise it will be too late to plant." Xiaoyu suddenly thought that all the grain seeds had been given to Sihai Bank in Qingchuan, "Madam, there are still some at home. Grain seeds?”

There are a lot of grain seeds, wheat seeds, wild rice, and corn seeds stored in Li Yu's space, but he can't tell them!

"Don't worry about the grain seeds. Shopkeeper Chu and the others will also bring the grain seeds. I have already made a decision."

The two talked for a while, and Mrs. Liu came to report that the grain store had delivered the rice. Li Yu asked Ma Qiang to drive the grain and the two women out of the city.

Jixiang sent a letter and said to Li Yu: "Madam, Ruyi has hired some day laborers to go to the wasteland in Xicheng. A total of more than forty day laborers have been hired. I will buy pots and pans and hire some craftsmen along the way."

Li Yu smiled and said: "Okay, I don't need to tell you that you have already thought of it. Then you can buy some fat meat, pig intestines, cabbage and radish by the way. I will drive over and have a look first."

Li Yu made arrangements to go back and have something to eat, then went to the front yard to drive the mule cart out.
