Chapter 1079 Impeachment

??

The food was already on the table, and Yun Qing and Yu Xi just arrived.

Zao Zao saw the two of them and said: "Father, mother, Liu Er and I have been back for a long time, and neither of you know to come and see us, it is really sad." With a smile.

Yun Qing glanced at Zao Zao and said: "What did you say before? You were asked to take care of your mother and Liu Er, but what happened? How did you take care of them?" If Zao Zao hadn't kicked off the quilt, Liu Er wouldn't have caught the cold .

Zaozao was wronged and lowered his head.

Seeing this, Qiyou changed the subject: "Second sister, I'll take you out to eat delicious food in two days."

Brother Xuan nodded quickly after hearing this and said, "Yes, Second Sister, the pig's trotters and crucian carp with sauce in Deyuelou are very delicious. You will definitely want to eat them after you eat them."

Zao Zao said with a smile: "I don't even look at the price. A pig's trotter costs ten taels of silver. If it doesn't taste good, who will buy it?" A pig costs only three or four taels of silver at most.

The food in Deyuelou is delicious, but the problem is that the price is not cheap. Her monthly salary is enough for one meal.

"Fuji Restaurant will open soon." Fuji Restaurant recruited two more chefs. In a place like the capital where rich people are everywhere, there is no need to worry about running out of business.

Qiyou's eyes lit up, and he was very happy: "That's really great." Going to Fuji Restaurant for dinner, they can keep the bill without paying. All his money has been spent in the past few months.

Zao Zao scolded with a smile: "You foodie."

Yuxi said with a smile: "As you are, that monthly fee is not enough for you." People need to be a little interested, so she never talked about Qiyou's delicious food before.

Qiyou said with a bitter face: "Yes! I'm always stretched. Mother, do you think it's time to increase the monthly allowance!" Twenty taels of silver is really not enough! All the lucky money and tips received during the holidays were used up.

Yuxi laughed, and said: "If you double it, it won't be enough for you." The capital is expensive, and forty taels of silver is not enough to have a big meal in Deyuelou.

Qiyou asked with a bitter face: "Then what should I do? If this continues, I will soon be in deficit."

Zao Zao was puzzled: "Deficit?" What does this mean, and why she couldn't understand it.

Qiyou glanced at Zaozao, shook his head and said, "Sister, you should read more books!" It is also a very worrying thing to have an illiterate elder sister.

Liu Er explained softly by Zao Zao's ear.

After hearing this, Zao Zao snorted coldly at Qi You: "I wanted to support you, but now it seems to be fine." She even dared to ridicule her. If her parents were not here, she would definitely beat this brat up. .

Qiyou also didn't count on Zaozao's three melons and two dates: "Mom, I want to do business to make money, do you think it's okay?" In Qiyou's perception, doing business makes money quickly.

Before Yuxi could speak, Yunqing refused: "No, what kind of business do you do as a kid? Your priority now is to learn something."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Yuxi smiled and said: "The dishes are all on the table, let's eat first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Qiyou said obediently: "Okay." His mother has the final say on family affairs, and his mother didn't refuse, which means there is something to be said about it.

The dinner is very rich, and the dishes are also everyone's favorite. Usually Liu'er eats seventy percent full, but just now she was a little full even if she couldn't control herself.

Zao Zao said happily: "Before I said that eating too much dry food and drinking cabbage soup is delicious in the world. You still don't believe it, but now?"

Liu Er smiled and nodded.

Yuxi looked at the two sisters and said, "Let's go for a walk in the imperial garden." By the way, they chatted and talked.

Qiyou hurriedly said: "Mom, what about my business?"

Yuxi said: "I don't object to you wanting to do business, but doing business is not that simple, you have to give mother a charter, right? There is nothing, let mother say what."

After thinking about it, Qiyou really said: "Mom, then I think of a good project, will you give me the principal?"

"No, you have to settle this matter yourself." After a pause,

Yuxi added another sentence: "You can't do business in person, and you can't use your name. How to do it is up to you."

Hearing this, Qiyou suddenly had a bitter face.

When Yun Qing heard that Yuxi had raised so many restrictions, he didn't object any more.

As a result, as soon as the husband and wife arrived at the gate of the garden, Si Bonian came over and said, "My lord, my concubine, please see Mrs. Tan." Something must have happened to ask for an interview at night.

Without any hesitation, the husband and wife returned to the imperial study.

Looking at the backs of the two, Liu'er couldn't help shaking her head: "Father and mother don't even have time for a walk, they're too busy."

Zao Zao said with a smile: "If I want my parents not to be busy, I can only hope that Qihao can grow up quickly." Before this, parents will definitely not be easy.

The garden is very beautiful, but the two sisters were also tired, and went back to sleep after walking around for a while.

On May 30th, Qiu's group arrived in the capital, and it was already night when they arrived in Beijing.

At the gate, everyone got out of the carriage. Qiu pointed at the gate and said with a smile, "It's exactly the same as when I left." The only difference is that the four characters of "Korea Gongfu" have been replaced with "Hanfu".

Thinking of this, Qiu Shi felt a little sad.

At this time, Lu Xiu came out with Brother Shun and the Liu family. Seeing Qiu Shi, Lu Xiu said with a smile all over her face: "Mother, I look forward to your return every day and night, and today I finally look forward to it."

Zhong Minxiu saluted Lu Xiufu: "I've seen Second Aunt."

Lu Xiu pulled Zhong Minxiu and praised: "Mother has good vision and found such a beautiful and capable wife for Brother Chang."

Qiu's face was also full of smiles: "You have a sweet mouth." The daughter-in-law and grandson's daughter-in-law will make her happy in different ways, which is also Qiu's blessing.

After finishing speaking, Qiu Shi pointed to Xiang Zixin and said, "This is your sister-in-law and Brother Ye."

Lu Xiu smiled and called: "Sister-in-law." Xiang's age was about the same as her daughter-in-law Juanjuan, but she was of the same generation as her. Although Lu Xiu had already prepared herself psychologically, she was still a little unnatural at the moment.

After entering the gate, she looked at several small sedan chairs, Qiu shook her head and said, "I don't want to sit in a sedan chair, just walk in." After being away for more than ten years, she wanted to take a good look at the house.

Lu Xiu smiled and said: "Mother, after driving such a long way, I'd better go back to the house to rest, and I will accompany you to take a good look at this house in two days."

Xiang Shi and Zhong Minxiu didn't know what this house was like before, so they couldn't remember the past with Qiu Shi. The only candidate was naturally Lu Xiu.

Zhong Minxiu was also tired from riding in the carriage, and when she heard this, she hurriedly said: "Grandmother, Second Aunt is right, we'd better go back to the house to rest, and we'll take a look at it when we're free." She couldn't bear it, and wanted to go early rest.

Xiang hugged Brother Ye and said nothing. After the water bandit incident, she talked less in front of Qiu Shi.

A group of people went to the upper court first.

Looking at the furnishings in the house, Qiu's eyes were a little red: "It's still the same as when I left." When Lu Xiu arrived, the yard was empty, and the ground was also dug with holes. In order to return to the appearance when they left, Lu Xiu tried her best.

Of course, there are still subtle differences in some places. Like before, the furniture was carved with bat patterns, but now these are carved with crabapple or auspicious cloud patterns.

Lu Xiu said with some regret: "It's a pity that the former cook can't be found, otherwise it would be better." At that time, he left in a hurry, and many servants couldn't take care of them. These people were later scattered all over the place.

Speaking of this, Qiu asked: "It's okay, I brought the cook back from Jiangnan." The cook's surname is Xiao, and Han Jianming took great pains to find it. This chef Xiao cooks vegetarian dishes very well, and also cooks good soup. Over the years, Qiu Shi has been used to eating the meals she cooks, and she is not used to changing people.

Lu Xiu smiled and said, "Then I can rest assured." She was worrying about the cook, but she didn't expect Qiu to solve it by herself.

After saying a few words, Qiu saw Zhong Minxiu and Xiang's tired faces, and said, "You all go back and rest!"

Mrs. Xiang lives in the main courtyard. As for Brother Chang, he lives in the courtyard where Han Jianye and Lu Xiu used to live. Of course, it is impossible for Lu Xiu to bother to restore these two courtyards, and there is no need for that. They may not like what she arranged.

Lu Xiu personally took Mrs. Xiang to the main courtyard: "Sister-in-law, this house has not been lived in for more than ten years, so it has been refurbished. Because the time is too short, many places are not satisfactory. If there is something wrong, please forgive me .”

Mrs. Xiang smiled and said: "How could it be? It's all my fault. It should be my job, but it made my siblings suffer."

Grape frowned.

Lu Xiu also had a lot of things to do, and after sending Xiang Shi to the main courtyard, she turned around and left after saying a few more words.

Except for the bed, there is nothing on the Duobao Pavilion, and there are no other decorations either, making it look very empty. Xiaocao said dissatisfiedly: "Is this too simple?" Xiaocao is the newly picked maidservant of the Xiang family, she is very clever, and her father is the younger brother of Han Gao's son-in-law.

Dafang didn't have anything else in Pick City except Qiu's and Ye's things. Han Jianming gave Lu Xiu a sum of money before, but these were all used to repair the house. Lu Xiu has sons and daughters, how could she give them her own things. It's okay to work hard, it's absolutely impossible to spend money and materials.

Mrs. Xiang also felt that it was too crude, and frowned and said, "Forget it, let's do it ourselves when the things arrive."

Xiaocao said very angrily: "Madam, the master gave the second lady such a large sum of money, and he did it like this. This is too greedy." She felt that it was necessary for Mrs. Xiang to tell the elder said the master.

Fu Tuan just walked in, and when he heard this, he said with a cold face: "How do you know that the second lady is greedy? If the old lady knows this, even the wife will be ruined." Without proof, he dared to say something, What audacity.

Xiaocao shrank her head and dared not make a sound.

Xiang said to Xiaocao: "I'm hungry, go to the kitchen and see if there is anything to eat."

Xiaocao knew that this was to send her out and the two of them wanted to talk, so they ran out in a hurry.

Fu Tuan lowered his voice and said: "Madam, this girl really can't stay with me, or she will cause trouble sooner or later." Dare to say anything, this is to arouse hatred for Madam!

Mrs. Xiang was silent for a while and said: "Let's put it away first, and then look at it." The main reason is that Xiaocao's identity makes her a little reluctant to give up. None of the people she married as a dowry were able to do so, and the news was relatively late. Therefore, she is eager to win over some people to use for her.

Futon nodded and said nothing more.

On the other side, Lotus looked at the empty room and felt very simple.

Zhong Minxiu saw the problem very thoroughly: "All the things accumulated in the Duke's mansion have been looted, and there is nothing left in the manor. What do you want the second lady to bring for us to display?"

He Hua hesitated for a while and said: "I heard that the princess will be rewarded every year and festivals, and besides, the Elder Master also bought a lot of things in Pickaxe City a few years ago, right?"

"If it were you, would you put these things in our house? It's definitely not possible." Put them in their house, and they belong to them. If it was her, she wouldn't want to either. It doesn't matter if you work hard, but it's upside down. Unless it's the Virgin, it's impossible for normal people to do this kind of thing. As for those who are in charge of the rewards, if they don't make some hard work from it, it will be considered a small amount.

Zhong Minxiu's butler also benefited from it, but Zhong Minxiu didn't get much, and she was not conspicuous because of her high skills. Although Xiang's side heard the wind, they couldn't grasp the reason.

After sweeping through the empty room, Zhong Minxiu said: "Actually, this is fine, we can arrange it according to our own wishes." If the second aunt has done it properly, she can't rearrange it if she doesn't like it. If that's the case, I don't think there is any dissatisfaction with the second aunt!

Han Jianming escorted the things behind, so the meeting has not arrived in Beijing yet. However, the case for his impeachment came to the court the next day.

After reading the excerpts, Yuxi smiled and said to Chen Lei, the imperial historian: "Of the eight boats my elder brother brought, six boats were my dowry for Zaozao and Liu'er."

Chen Lei asked suspiciously: "Really?"

Yuxi laughed and said: "I didn't need to lie to you. Besides, my elder brother specially brought these things into Beijing to lure out water bandits."

Some time ago, the imperial court suppressed a group of water bandits who had been entrenched in the Beijing-Hangzhou shipping industry for more than 20 years, and Chen Lei also knew about it.

Although Yuxi explained this way, Chen Lei didn't think it was wrong to impeach Han Jianming. When Han Jianming went to Jiangnan, he was empty-handed, but now he returns to Beijing with two big boats. He is either taking bribes or using power for personal gain. But Yuxi obviously didn't intend to investigate, so he wisely didn't dwell on this matter any longer.

Yun Qing already knew about Han Jianming's details, so he didn't comment on this matter, but he was puzzled by another question: "How can the news of Yushi be so well-informed?" Everything was still on the way, and Chen Lei got the news.

Yuxi said with a smile: "It has been four days since the eldest brother arrived at Tianjin Port, and Chen Lei's speed is considered slow." It took almost a day to unload the eight ships. This number can't help but make people think too much. It is within Yuxi's expectation that Yushi will be impeached when he gets the news.

Yun Qing suddenly thought of one thing: "The three-foot-high red coral that big brother bought in Taobao, will it be for Zao Zao or Liu Er?"

Yuxi smiled and asked, "You can give it to whoever you want?"

Yun Qing meant that no one would give it to anyone: "You often say that you don't worry about the few but the unevenness. I think it's best not to give it to both of them, and it would be good to keep it and put it in the Kunning Palace."

"Zaozao and Liu'er are not such narrow-minded people." Besides, she will not favor one over the other, if the red coral is given to Zaozao, she will definitely compensate Liu'er. But since Yunqing spoke, she didn't veto it: "Then stay here and put it in Kunning Palace." Living in Qianqing Palace is very convenient, and Yuxi doesn't even want to go to Kunning Palace. It's just that the rules are like this, and she has no intention of breaking them.
