Chapter 136
Seeing Xuezhu coming, the lord of the house put away the pony and put it in the snakeskin bag. The four of them left silently again and headed to the farm in the suburbs.
This is Ji Yunxi's farm.
Before the round-faced steward left, Wu Weian asked her where to put the people. She used the method of ordering soldiers to point to whoever is who, and pointed to this place in the shop, field and house in her hand. The steward of this farmhouse has been under Ji Yunxi's hands for a long time, and he is also a talent from Ji's residence, which is credible.
Ji Yunxi had already said hello, and the steward vacated a small courtyard that was the most remote in the village and no one would go to, and let Xuezhu lock people in.
Xuezhu put the old man and the old woman on the bed.
At this time, they were in a safe place and had plenty of time, so Xuezhu was very patient. He placed the two of them evenly on the bed and fine-tuned the position of their limbs.
The round-faced steward, the poisonous lady, and the lord of the house were waiting beside him.
The poisonous lady chatted with the round-faced steward: "I heard that the madam gave the son two thousand taels! Yuan steward, do we have a share of the money?"
Yuan Guanshi put his hands behind his back and looked at the poisonous lady: "Yes."
"What is it? We all have a share? Is it true??!" The poisonous lady's voice suddenly became louder, she was very shocked and surprised. She just asked casually, because it was impossible. Who is that, that is their son! A gentleman who can give one penny and never give two!
The Lord of the House sat on his pony, with his hands down and his head down, not participating in the discussion.
Of course, he kept listening. But he felt that the little girl, Ah Du, was afraid that she was too happy.
Sure enough, Yuan Guan Shi tugged at his wrinkled face: "Young Master took out a thousand taels, let me first report the money that everyone was anxious to report some time ago, and the rest will be shared equally among the brothers who contributed this time."
The poisonous lady rubbed her hands together and was very excited: "How much can each person get?"
Yuan Guanshi: "I'll do the math. There are hundreds of brothers in the capital, and each of them will eventually get seven cents."
She has been raised by her family's wife, and she eats ice cubes every day (yes, now everyone in the family eats ice cubes, whether it's the old lady in the yard or their servants), Baofu From time to time, my sister also gives a few taels of silver to the poisonous lady who said her cooking skills are really good: "..."
The smile on her face disappeared instantly.
The master of the house said quietly: "Following the young master these years, when did he ever give money to him? It's good, Qiwen is a lot more than I thought."
At the other end, Xuezhu adjusted the most standard sleeping position for the old man and the old woman, then pulled up the quilt and neatly spread over their bodies and covered their heads.
Everything is perfect.
Xuezhu got up and the four of them went home.
The poisonous lady glanced over there: "Xuezhu, your quilt is the same as covering the dead, are you sure they are still alive?"
Xuezhu replied earnestly, "That's how I sleep. I'm still alive."
The steward of the farmhouse waited for the four to leave, then hurriedly entered the room and pulled the quilt down a little.
These two people are still useful to the third girl, and it will be bad if they are suffocated.

It was already dark, and the candles were still lit in Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian's rooms.
Wanxiang knocked on the door and hurried in after getting the order.
Wu Weian sat at the table with his legs crossed, leaning idly on the back of the chair.
Holding a topographic map of a certain place in his hand, he lowered his head slightly, wondering what he was thinking.
Ji Yunxi huddled in the beauty's couch with miscellaneous books in her hand, but she didn't turn a page. She raised her head and looked at Wanxiang's expression: "What's wrong?"
Wanxiang was blessed: "Miss, the flying pigeons in Xiangping are passing books. It's summer and the weather is hot. The warehouses of our four pawnshops accidentally caught fire."
Ji Yunxi's eyes narrowed, and she straightened up from the couch: "How is the fire? Are there casualties?"
Wanxiang: "The fire has been put out, but a lot of things were damaged, and a few guys were injured. But life is safe."
"That's good." Xiangping is in a hot and dry place, the temperature is high in summer, and it is easy to catch fire, which happens every year. Every year, we have to take precautions in advance, but in the end, accidents happen every year, Ji Yunxi said on his behalf, "The injured man must be settled, and the damaged things must be counted. If there is insufficient money in the pawnshop, it must be made up as quickly as possible. Go on. By the way, please let me know and let all shops in various places pay attention. In summer, it is easy to catch fire. Do not bring candles in places that are easy to catch fire. As for the shops around Xiangping, please do not light fires at night, and use night pearls. replace."
"Yes, miss." Wanxiang led the way.
Wu Weian and the round-faced butler outside the window looked at each other for a while. After Wanxiang left, he turned his head and said to her, "They're back, and someone grabbed it."
Ji Yunxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't reveal anything on her face: "That's fine, I'll be there early tomorrow."
After working in shopping malls for many years, she has not been able to learn the superb acting skills like Wu Weian, but she can still do it without showing her emotions.
Wu Weian put down the topographic map in his hand, got up and closed the window, and resisted the poisonous lady who stood outside looking at him for a long time, but dared not speak.
This poisonous lady is also a lover of money, so she is afraid to know that she can only make seven pennies for this trip.
Seven cents is not enough?
Wu Weian stretched, walked to the side of the room, leaned comfortably, took a miscellaneous book, and planned to turn a few pages and fall asleep.
