Chapter 636

Yun Qing went out early in the morning and didn't know about Mammy Quan's illness. When I came back in the evening, I heard that Grandma Quan had caught a cold and asked a little strangely: "Why did Grandma catch a cold?" Mammy would say him all the time until he corrected himself. Therefore, he had a strange intuition about the fact that Madam Quan had caught the cold.

Yuxi shook her head, and said about Quan Zhengyu: "Quan Zhengyu was brought up by the nanny, and what he did this time hurt the nanny's heart." Quan Zhengyu's future, said yes The whole nun can't do too much for him. But that's it, he was still scheming against Sister Quan. Mammy is such a fair person, knowing this matter, she is not annoyed.

Yun Qing said with a look of disdain: "This kind of person only has himself in his heart. It's not worth it to be sad for this kind of person." No matter how much you do for him, once something doesn't satisfy him, he will feel resentful, so Yun Qing hates this kind of person very much.

Yuxi agrees with Yun Qing's words: "It's also fortunate that we found out early, otherwise we would have killed the licorice when we really waited for the licorice to marry." At that time, she would regret it.

Hearing this, Yun Qing said: "Instead of looking for people outside who don't know their background, it's better to marry those boys under me. Those boys know their background, and they are not afraid that they will treat these girls badly." There are many guards around him. They're all still bachelors! Licorice and Pomegranate maidservants look good, good-natured, and can read and write, if these boys can be married back, not to mention offering, at least they will hold them in the palm of their hands.

Yunqing's suggestion is good, betrothing Licorice and others to the people around Yunqing, one is reassuring, and the other is also gathering these guards. Yuxi thought for a while and said: "This incident made Licorice a little scared, so let's take it easy. After a while, I will tell her again. If she agrees, then choose carefully."

The family had dinner and then went for a walk in the garden. Looking at the colorful yard, Yun Qing said with a smile, "I've only been away for half a year, and the garden has changed a lot."

Liu'er said: "Father, since A-Ding came, the garden has changed a lot."

Yu Xi explained: "This Ading is a servant sent by Fang, he is very good at taking care of flowers and plants. This garden has been taken care of by him for half a year, and it has become very beautiful." Funds are tight, and Yu Xi doesn't have that much money to come Make a garden. But this Ading used his own brain to take care of the garden properly.

Speaking of Wu Kuo, Yun Qing asked: "Wu Kuo has been doing business in Jiangnan for these years, and he is very familiar with Jiangnan." Since their next target is Jiangnan, it is natural to have a clear understanding of the situation in Jiangnan.

Yu Xi nodded and said: "Although Jiangnan has 800,000 soldiers and horses, as long as they face our cavalry, they have no chance of winning. I believe that the Yu family also knows their weaknesses, and they will definitely form an alliance with Yan Wushuang when the time comes." Cavalry , has always been a nightmare for infantry.

Hearing this, Yunqing turned his head to look at Yuxi and said, "This is the real purpose of Yunshan's smuggling of grain outside the customs in exchange for horses?" salt. Only at the beginning of this year, Yunshan sold a batch of grain outside the customs. However, food can only be exchanged for horses, and nothing else is required. So for this batch of food, Yunshan returned nearly 5,000 good horses, and a small part of them were war horses.

Yuxi nodded and said, "I think it's a good deal to exchange four stones of grain for a good horse." Four stones of grain refers to white rice and noodles, and all the smuggled out this time are rice noodles.

After saying this, Yuxi explained again: "Five thousand good horses are only 20,000 shi of grain, which can't affect the overall situation." Two million jin of grain is just a drop in the bucket for the million-population North captives.

Yun Qing said with a smile: "Don't talk about four shi grains for a horse, 20 shi grains for a horse. Yuxi, if you go into business, you will be rich like an enemy." A good horse is worth a thousand taels of silver,

Selling to Jiangnan and other places has to double. Now Yu Xi only exchanged for four stones of grain. He wished for more such good things, so how could he blame him!

In addition, the best horses can be selected from them for breeding, so this cannot be measured by money at all.

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Yunqing's face: "When Cui Mo first saw this batch of horses, he almost didn't feel happy. Later, he knew that I didn't plan to stay in Yucheng with these horses, so he almost ran to Sichuan to find me. "For people like them, getting a good horse is equivalent to an extra life, so seeing a good horse is naturally a joy.

Thinking about the private letter Yun Shan wrote to him, Yu Xi shook her head and said, "I'm actually taking advantage of people's dangers by doing this." Those who traded war horses for food couldn't survive the day. Only then risked beheading in exchange for food. Of course, Yuxi didn't feel guilty because she was an enemy. I just thought that no matter where I was, the people at the bottom were the most pitiful.

Yun Qing hated the Beiyao people to the bone, and said, "It's a pity that we have no money now, otherwise we would send troops directly. I can also avenge the brothers who died back then."

Yuxi knew that although Yunqing agreed with her opinion, she still had regrets in her heart: "He Rui, I want Yang Duoming to go to Jiangnan, what do you think?"

Yun Qing thought for a while and nodded, "Let Yang Duoming go to Jiangnan and Black Widow to the capital. It just so happens that the information in the capital has not improved, and having the Black Widow to help Falcon should change the status quo." Yan Wushuang will The capital is too tightly controlled, and Falcon is cautious, so the intelligence work has not been going smoothly.

Yu Xi said: "This arrangement is quite good."

Yun Qing walked under the crabapple tree, and said: "Yuxi, I will go to the West Sea in the future." After going to the West Sea, I have to go to Yucheng to have a look.

Yuxi didn't object, and said: "Go early and come back early." Xihai fought so hard at the beginning, Yunqing should also go to visit.

Zao Zao's ears were sharp, and he heard Yun Qing's words immediately. He turned his head and said, "Father, are you going to the West Sea? Can I go with you?"

Yun Qing shook his head and refused, and said: "Father has business to do this time, so it is not appropriate to take you there."

Zao Zao looked disappointed.

Yu Xi weighed it in her heart, and after Zao Zao walked away, she lowered her voice and said: "There is no danger in going to the West Sea this time, and it would be good to bring Zao Zao there so that she can get acquainted with the outside environment more."

Yun Qing was a little surprised, and said: "I thought you would refuse?" There is also a thousand miles from Pick City to Xihai.

Yu Xi looked at Zao Zao and said: "Since Zao Zao decided to go this way, I can't stop it. Let her get acquainted with the life in the army as soon as possible, it will be beneficial to her and not harmful." Although she feels distressed and reluctant, but this is She can't stop Zao Zao from choosing the road she chooses. She can only pave the way for her so that she can avoid some detours.

Yun Qing took Yu Xi's hand and said, "Since you don't object, then I'll take her there." It's naturally good to let Zao Zao see more of the outside world.

Yuxi was a little uncomfortable, and whispered: "What are you doing? The children are still watching!" She felt embarrassed in front of the children.

Knowing that he could go to Xihai with him, Zao Zao was overjoyed. Liu'er was a little upset, but she didn't want to travel long distances, and she didn't pester her to go with her. However, Liu'er also has a request: "Sister, I went to the West Sea, you have to bring me the white swan back."

Hearing the white swans, Yunqing remembered what happened back then and laughed: "Your Uncle Feng sent two white swans, but your elder sister plucked them all. You asked her to bring the white swans back, Be careful and bring back two bald geese for you."

Zao Zao didn't admit it: "Father, when did I pluck the white swan's feathers? You must have made a mistake."

Yun Qing smiled and said: "How can I forget what happened four years ago? Your mother was so angry that she spanked you."

Zao Zao said awkwardly: "Father, isn't this young and ignorant? At that time, how did I know what white swans and black swans are?"

Liu'er sprinkled salt on her wound, and said, "Sister, I heard from Mother Lan that when you were young, you broke a lot of jade and porcelain in the house, so that mother didn't dare to put decorations in the house." After speaking, Liu Er raised her head and asked Yu Xi: "Mother, is this true?" Zao Zao had too many dark histories when she was a child, and she caught a lot of them.

Yu Xi pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Your young lady was a bit naughty." When Zao Zao was young, Yu Xi worried a lot, and she was worried that Zao Zao would become a female bully.

Not to be outdone, Zao Zao also exposed Liu'er's truth: "Don't blame me, you still wet the bed when you are four years old!" Liu'er is not in good health, and she did wet the bed when she was four years old.

Liu Erxu is also seven years old, and already knows how to lose face. Hearing this, he blushed immediately and said, "I don't know how to wet the bed, if you want to pee, you pee."

Zao Zao looked at Liu'er like this, and didn't say anything more, and wanted to continue talking, so that he would drop the golden beans. So, she didn't dare to continue talking.

Yun Qing felt that Liu'er had a bad temper, and said, "You were in poor health when you were young, and bed-wetting is no big deal. Many children still wet the bed at the age of five or six!"

When Liu Er heard this, her eyes immediately turned red.

Yuxi walked over with a smile, touched Liu'er's head and said softly: "What a silly girl, your sister was playing with you, why did you drop golden beans? If this is the case, your sister will not dare to follow Did you speak?"

Liu'er forced back her tears and said, "I didn't cry! It's just that the wind has blown my eyes, and it hurts."

Zao Zao hurriedly said, "Then I'll blow it up for you."

Yu Xi shook her head helplessly, if she didn't know that Zao Zao had a straight temper, she would suspect that she was deliberately mocking Liu Er.

Yun Qing felt that there was nothing wrong with Zao Zao's temper, and it was too tiring to go around too much: "Okay, it's getting dark, let's go back!"

Back in the courtyard, Yun Qing said to Yu Xi: "Liu Er's character is not going to work, she must be corrected."

Yuxi smiled and said: "This girl has the best face. Zaozao said in front of us that she wetted the bed at the age of four, which made her feel ashamed, and that's why she got red-eyed." Liu Erjiao is a little too delicate, but There is no rush to do this, it can only be corrected slowly.

Yun Qing still shook his head and said: "Even if you have a good face, you can't shed tears when you say something that doesn't please you. Then if she does something wrong in the future, if I tell her a few words, why don't you cry to death?" Although it is said that a daughter should be pampered, but You can't raise a porcelain doll that shatters when touched. Comparing jujube and jujube, Liu'er is even more vulnerable.

Yu Xi said with a smile: "Don't worry, Liu'er rarely does this, this time Zao Zao also poked her weakness." Liu'er is a bit delicate, but she doesn't cry when she says a bad word. This time, it is also a special case.

Yun Qing said: "We still have to pay attention to this matter." It's okay at home, brothers and sisters will give way, but it's not appropriate to marry when you grow up.

Yuxi nodded and said: "Well, I plan to let her learn to be a housekeeper after two years. Exercise slowly, and she won't be as thin-skinned as she is now." Liu'er has a very strong temper, she must want to let her be a housekeeper To take care of it, when the time comes, it will naturally lose face.

Yunqing saw that Yuxi was going to succeed, so he didn't say any more.

When Yunqing went to Xihai with Zaozao, the summer harvest had come to an end, and Yuxi was busy again.

The booklet from Shanxi was also delivered. After reading the brochure, Yuxi showed a smile on his face: "Shanxi's yams and wheat are both harvested well." Although many places in Shanxi are exempted from taxes, it is much easier to manage when the harvest is good.

Xu Wu said: "The concubine exempted them from taxes, and this year is another bumper harvest year, and the common people are more convinced of us." With the support of the people, even if the imperial court sends troops to attack, we will not be afraid.

Yuxi was also in a good mood, and said: "If this trend continues, we will be able to recover within three years." The tax exemption this season will not be exempted next time, but the tax they collect is not heavy, and the burden of the common people afford it.

Xu Wu knew that he had regained his vitality and said that he would send troops again, but he didn't ask, but mentioned one thing: "I don't know what the princess has planned for Licorice?"

[UU Reading 00kxs] Yuxi asked with a smile: "What? Do you have a suitable candidate?" Now that you have spoken, there must be someone to choose.

Xu Wu nodded and said: "Zhu Zi knew that the princess wanted to give licorice to others, so she asked me to do so." Zhu Zi has been working with him all the time, he knows who it is, otherwise, he would not have talked to Yu Yu. Xi opened his mouth.

Zhuzi works in the front yard, and often guards the gate of the yard. Yuxi also has some impressions of him: "When did he start thinking about licorice?"

Xu Wu smiled and said: "I don't know about this. Speaking of which, this kid is hiding his thoughts deeply. If he hadn't been impatient this time, he might not have said it." , the maids around the princess have good looks and temperaments, and it's normal for Zhuzi to like them. As long as it's not privately giving and receiving, Xu Wu thinks it's fine.

Yuxi smiled and said: "This time Quanzheng Yu's matter has scared Licorice enough, her marriage has been temporarily postponed. I will mention it to her after a few days." Zhuzi has been working in the mansion for many years, and knows all about it. Yes, don't worry about character issues.

Xu Wu smiled and said: "If the boy knows, he will be so happy that he can't find the north." The fact that the princess can give him a chance proves that half of the success is achieved. As for whether licorice can agree, it depends on Zhuzi's own ability. (to be continued)
