However, Mrs. Zhang also hated her daughter for being so short-sighted that she could see something in her eyes and ask for it. But her daughter was her own, so if she wanted to blame others, she would naturally blame others. She kept these words in her heart and did not say it.

Said to Miss Yang Liu,

"In this matter of marriage, no one is good and the other is not good. It's just a matter of affinity. I'll say the ugly things first. You can decide what to do. I will also write to your parents and tell them about this matter.

Make it clear!"

After you have made it clear, if you still jump into the pit, that is your own business!

Miss Yang Liu nodded and curtsied.

"Thank you cousin for taking such trouble for Zheng'er!"

Letters came and went, and the Yang family was very happy to hear this. They sent Miss Yang Liu's eldest brother to arrange the marriage. Seeing that the family was obsessed with power, Mrs. Zhang couldn't stop her any more, so she simply dumped her.

Don't worry about it!

The Yang family is really rich. Miss Yang's eldest brother came to the capital and spent a huge amount of money to buy a house in the capital. While asking around for land, he set a wedding date with the Mou family and went through the ceremony according to the rules.

, during this time, the eldest son of the Yang family also went to the Mou Mansion to ask for an audience with Mou Bin. Mou Bin thought of his third son and met with him. He accepted a generous gift from the eldest son of the Yang family, but without even raising an eyebrow, he sent the guests away.

.

When the eldest son of the Yang family came out, the people around him said,

"My lord, that is worth fifty thousand taels of silver. I should treat you to a dinner, right?"

So what if you are a third-rank official? You can even get this money into the Shangshu Mansion. This air is too big!

The eldest son of the Yang family didn't take it seriously but was very happy.

"What do you know? A third-grade official still has real power. This is an official who can be heard by the heavens. You think you are a local official in our state capital. You can get in if you have money?"

Believe it or not, if it weren’t for this marriage, I wouldn’t be able to open the door of Mou Mansion even with one hundred thousand taels of silver!

"But... these are all relatives, why should we be polite and save them for a meal?"

The eldest son of the Yang family shook his head and said,

"It doesn't matter, what makes you happy once is familiar again, if he wants to let me have a meal for the sake of 50,000 taels of silver..."

He didn't say the rest,

The face of the commander of the Imperial Guard is too cheap!

He is a businessman and knows that good goods are not cheap, and good goods are not cheap!

No matter what the Yang family thought, the marriage was still handled according to the procedures. Moreover, the Yang family heard that their sister lived in a remote old courtyard after marrying into her husband's family, so they found an excuse to give away five thousand taels of silver.

To Mou Gong, he borrowed the name of the Third Young Master to renovate the new courtyard, so Silian suffered a disaster.

Qingjing Yuan and Wenlan Yuan are separated by a wall. There are constant banging sounds from the next door all day long. Si Lian and his family's courtyard can no longer be quiet. When Wang's mother is practicing in her room, she can't help but frown when she hears the sounds next door.

Unable to sit still any longer, I went out and opened the door, and saw four girls embroidering and talking on the porch.

"Have you ever asked next door how long it will take for the carpenter to do it?"

Mou Gong took the money and handed the errand to his aunt. The aunt immediately hired a craftsman, claiming that he was just repainting the courtyard. In fact, the craftsman started chipping away at the wall on the first day of admission and changed the entire layout inside.

Ms. Liu knew about this, and she had no intention of caring about her aunt and her son at this time. She turned a blind eye and said nothing. Madam did not say anything, and others in the house did not say much. Only Si Lian and the others were close to each other.

In the first two days, the house was also filled with dust. When she woke up in the morning, there was a layer of dust on the table. Si Lian couldn't stay at home, so she simply went out to stay with her sisters for two days.

Now the masons have left, and the carpenters have come in again, knocking, planing and peeling, noisily and noisily, the girls said,

"I asked about it, and they said that all the furniture in the yard needs to be replaced. I'm afraid it will take about half a month, and then it needs to be painted and left to dry, and then the walls will be repainted..."

Wang’s mother’s brows tightened after hearing this.

"With all the commotion going on all day long, how can other people live their lives?"

By the time it was time to paint, the smell would be so strong that I might not even be able to stay in the yard!

So he turned around and went to see Si Lian. Si Lian was also disturbed and couldn't take a nap. She was practicing calligraphy in the study. When Wang's mother came in, she knew that she was also disturbed from practicing.

"There's something wrong with mom..."

Mama Wang said,

"Young madam, there will be trouble next door for another month or two!"

I don’t know when Mr. Ba will come back. I wrote a letter earlier and said that he was in Kaifeng for business. Calculating the days, he must have been there for more than a month. It seems that the weather is getting colder and the waterways will be difficult to navigate by then. If he doesn’t come back, I’m afraid he will

I won’t be able to come back for the New Year!

Si Lian thought for a while and said,

"It really can't go on like this..."

After thinking for a while he said,

"Why don't we stay away for a few days?"

Wang's mother's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"Young lady, do you want to go to Zhuangzi outside the city?"

Si Lian nodded, thought for a while and said,

"Eighth Master lives in Zhuangzi outside the city, next to the river. It's okay to live there in the summer, but it's a bit cold in the winter..."

After a pause he said,

"My father-in-law gave me a village. I haven't had time to visit it since I got married. I heard that there is a small hot spring next to Xiaotang Mountain..."

The good village in Xiaotangshan has long been occupied by the royal family and other dignitaries. Mou Bin also has a large village nearby, which was given by the emperor. However, it is rarely used due to busy official duties. The Liu family does not like it every winter.

Move, only occasionally

The children took their friends over to have some fun, and the Xiaozhuangzi given to Silian was given by someone else in the early years. At that time, he had just gained power in Jinyiwei, so he went there a few times, and then left it alone, and never looked back.

When Biao got married, he gave it to Silian.

"There is also a hot spring there, but it is very small and the smell is a bit strong... The soup water needs to be taken out and filtered before it can be used..."

Although there are some flaws, Zhuangzi has a hot spring in Xiaotangshan. Among Mou Mansion, Silian is the only one. Moubin told Zhuangzi that the young couple should not show it to the outside world, so although Silian said

I have this Zhuangzi in my hand, but I have never seen it. Now that I can no longer live in this house, I might as well go outside the city and soak in warm soup for a few days.

Wang's mother laughed after hearing this and said,

"Then it's good to be in love, it's good to have somewhere to go, and you won't be disturbed by others at home!"

After sitting down and talking, Si Lian immediately changed her clothes and went to Mrs. Liu's side, leaving Mama Wang to lead the girls to pack things at home. Mrs. Liu heard about Si Lian's intention, thought about it and asked,

"Is it safe for you to leave the house at this time?"

Hearing her words, Si Lian knew that her mother-in-law knew what was going on outside. She thought about it and said,

"The matter has been calm in the past few days. My father-in-law also sent two capable girls to my daughter-in-law..."

It was clear that Lady Liu's matter was a gang fight, and the Jinyi Guards showed no action. Also, the Qiu family was vigilant and knew that Lady Liu had fallen into the hands of the government, so they cleared the dungeon in the village outside the city that day.

Everything was clean. Mou Bin sent spies behind to check. The entire dungeon was empty. Except for the black ground that could be seen on the ground that had been soaked with blood for a long time, there was nothing else.

So Mou Bin kept silent and secretly pursued it, but he was also careful not to reveal his fault. Therefore, no matter how turbulent things were inside, everyone seemed to be non-offensive and everything was calm. Si Lian thought for a while and replied,

"Don't worry, mother-in-law. They didn't know my daughter-in-law's identity before, so they dared to act without mercy. Now that they know her daughter-in-law's identity, they won't mess with her easily!"

At least on the surface they will not provoke Jin Yiwei. As long as Qiu still wants to make a fortune in the capital, she will not touch her!

Mrs. Liu agrees with this point. In her opinion, Mrs. Qiu is just a temptress with some medical skills who is making money by cheating in the capital. Naturally, the Mou family is not afraid of such a person. What Mrs. Liu is afraid of is that she will be involved behind the scenes. people.

He nodded and said,

"There is indeed a lot of commotion next door to you. You might as well go out for a while. You can stay in Beijing for two months and then come back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. I think Lao Ba will be back by then too!"

"Yes, thank you mother-in-law!"

Mrs. Liu nodded, and Si Lian went back to her yard and packed her things. Only one housekeeper was left at home, and the rest were taken to the hot spring village outside the city.

Because of the noise, she simply didn't delay at all and left the city that day. When she arrived at Zhuangzi outside the city, it was already dark.

This hot spring village is really small, with only three entrances from the front and back. There is only one active spring inside. The pool for bathing is in the middle of the yard. It is surrounded by flowers and plants and separated by fences. The water in the pool is introduced into the pool made of smooth and smooth blue marble using bamboo poles. Here, the scenery is extremely simple and wild, which makes Si Lian very happy.

There is also a wooden corridor surrounding the entire pool. The corridor is paved with soft couches. After the owner takes a bath in the pool, he can go directly to the top to rest. The formal inner room is separated by wooden doors further inside. Just the usual arrangement!

Si Lian left suddenly. The manager in this village was well-trained. When the host arrived, he was not surprised at all. He welcomed her in respectfully, and immediately ordered dinner to be arranged. A soft and warm bed was laid out in the inner room. , just waiting for Silian to move in.

Because there is a small hot spring in this village, a small greenhouse was built, and geothermal heat was introduced into it to grow flowers, vegetables, fruits, etc. That night, Si Lian had a meal of freshly picked vegetables, and waited until she was in the hot spring pool. The old lady actually brought me a plate of melon.

Silian was a little surprised,

"You can actually eat melons in this weather. Are they grown in the greenhouse in our village?"

The woman replied,

"Back to Mrs. Eighth Young Master, our gardener's skills in the village are not very good. He can only grow some green leafy vegetables. He hasn't learned the art of melons yet. The Wulangzhong family next door heard that you were here, so they specially asked him to do it. Someone sent it!"

"Wu Langzhong?"

Si Lian looked at Mama Wang aside. Mama Wang thought for a while and said,

"He is a warrior in the Ministry of War, a chariot driver and a police official. He has some friendship with our master..."
