lady, please calm down

Chapter 100 Light from the Sky
Yaqian Street.

All the noble ladies looked terrified.

Even Xu Wan'er, who just wanted to rescue the cat, didn't dare to open her mouth.

Although it is shameless for Cai Wei to say "pregnant" in the street, she is not a sister in a brothel or a maid of the Chen family after all.

They are all in the dark, so if they come here to ask for an explanation, who can say anything?

Xu Wan'er had also heard about the rumors about Cai Wei and Chen Chu, and Mrs. Cai's reputation was not good, so she never doubted whether it was true or not.

It's just that Xu Wan'er didn't know what purpose Cai Hua wanted to achieve.

At this time, she came here, could it be to use this to force the palace?

Xu Wan'er glanced at the two of them again, Cai Wei was sitting on a big horse looking down, and Mao'er was standing below with a flushed face.

Only with this momentum, the cat has already lost a lot.

Although Xu Wan'er didn't know Mao'er's family background, but judging by her daily attire, she knew that she was born into a wealthy family.

More importantly, Mao'er has nothing to do with Chen Chu now!

This Cai Wei was pregnant with a child before her. This account became more and more chaotic, and Xu Wan'er couldn't help feeling a headache for Mao'er.

Immediately, Cai Hua looked at everyone's expressions vaguely.

Naturally, there was a complacency in playing with others, and in the end, Meimu fixed her eyes on the cat.
The stubborn Mao'er still raised his head, not only his face was flushed, but also tears welled up in his eye sockets. He was about to fall, but he refused to let it fall.

Little wild cat, cry, cry.

The two confronted each other silently for a while, but Maoer finally held back, and after blinking his eyelids a few times, he gradually wiped away the mist from his eye sockets, lowered his eyelids, and said, "Three"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Mao'er found that his voice was trembling, so he quickly closed his mouth, cleared his throat lightly, and then tried his best to control his voice and calmly said, "Third Lady, what do you want?"

Cai Wei couldn't help being greatly disappointed.
But it's okay to tease Mao'er about this kind of thing, after all, she must make it clear, otherwise when it gets to her father's ears, the old man will be pissed off.

"What do you want?" Cai Wei pretended to think about it, and said, "From now on, your family will send me a load of soybeans, a load of wheat, and a hundred chicken eggs every month until"

Cai Hua paused. The cat below lowered her eyelids and did not look at her. This could be regarded as a subconscious expression of cowardice. Thinking of this, Cai Hua was a little satisfied, and then said: "Until the pony was born. , will be sent every month. Wait for Xiao Hei to give birth to a pony."

"Horse cub???"

The cat suddenly raised its head, staring at Cai Wei with red peach eyes, and repeated, "Cub?"

"Well, what do you think I said? You Xiaohong bullied me, Xiaohei, a few months ago. A few days ago, I found out that it had cubs in its stomach. Chen Dutou said that he would be responsible, so I asked Chen Ma'am, let me ask for an explanation."

Cai Hua calmed down and even winked at the cat.

There was a loud panting sound all around.

Knowing the truth, Mao'er's legs went limp, almost paralyzed, but fortunately Xu Wan'er gave her a hand.

"Miss Cai San, did you do it on purpose just now?" Xu Wan'er, who was also teased, said dissatisfied.

Cai Wei glanced at her charmingly, and said softly: "Miss Zhang, do you still have time to take care of other people's affairs? By the way, go back and send a message to your family official. He doesn't have to pay back the three money he owes me to Caiwei Pavilion. Why don’t you come back? Don’t dare to go to Yingxian Tower and Ji’er Lane because of this.”

"."

Xu Wan'er almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

chiffon
One sentence suppressed Xu Wan'er, and Cai Wei looked at Mao'er with a smile again, "Little wild cat, our two families will be considered in-laws in the future, right, mother-in-law. Hehe."

"Get out!" Mao'er, who had never scolded anyone before, finally couldn't hold back.

Cai Wei didn't care. After looking down at everyone, she lifted the reins lightly, and turned around, until Xiao Hei ran dozens of steps away, and there was another burst of triumphant laughter from far away on Yaqian Street.

Only then did the women surround them.

Mao'er, who was so emotionally ups and downs, finally couldn't hold it anymore, and cried while hugging Xu Wan'er.

She cried, and Xu Wan'er cried even more painfully.

"Cauliflower Snake, I am at odds with you!" One person cried and cursed, and the other also cried and cursed: "Zhang Bao, you have no conscience! My old lady will never end with you!"

That night.

Chen Chu returned to Qifengling, the always sensible and gentle cat, his eyes were swollen from crying, and he only said that the officials can do whatever they want in the future, except that they are not allowed to bring a woman surnamed Cai into the house.

Although no name was called, both of them knew who she was talking about.

That night.

In the county seat, Zhang Bao was interrogated by Xu Wan'er with his ears twisted, how much money he had spent on his sister these years.

Zhang Bao refused to admit it, and was finally driven to the woodshed.

That night.

Zhang Dianshi's house, which is only more than a hundred feet away from Zhang Bao's house, welcomed two guests who came from afar.
"Yuan Heng, this is a poor and remote village in Tongshan County. I've been neglected." In the past, Zhang Dianshi, who had seen the county's honor and was also holding airs, was smiling all over his face and raising his glass with both hands. ' The young man toasted.

Yuan Heng was dressed in an indigo blue robe, and his face was fair, but because of the deep dark circles around his eye sockets, he looked a bit sinister.

"Brother." Yuan Heng called Zhang Dian Shi Biao, looked around for a few simple furnishings in the hall, and said indifferently: "You have worked hard for this Dian Shi, and you are an official thousands of miles away from home. Sister-in-law, there isn't even a single person who is knowledgeable and interesting."

"Hey, Yuan Heng's words are wrong. To serve as a humble official for my brother is to benefit the people of the whole place. I don't care if there are women around me."

Zhang Dianshi Dayi said awe-inspiringly.

But Yuan Heng glanced at Zhang Dianshi, the corners of his mouth turned up, his sarcasm expression was self-evident.

Zhang Dianshi was quite embarrassed, so he had to be more sincere, and sighed: "Yuan Heng doesn't know something, and the situation in Tongshan County is complicated. The county lord is incompetent."

"Ahem, I'm a brother-in-law, don't talk about Shangguan."

"Yes, there are county magistrates who govern with their hands, and subordinate officials who overstep their authority, and even the soap-clothed officials below dare to defy others. Hey, I think back then, when Yuan Heng and I were on the imperial list together, we all lived together in the same year. How high-spirited he was when drinking in Zuixianlou in Tokyo. Now Xia Yuanheng is reused by Mr. Feng, taking on the important task of patrol envoy, inspecting the Quartet. As a brother, he is still trapped in Tongshan County, and his ambitions cannot be fulfilled. Thinking of this incident , it's hard to restrain my love for my brother."

When Zhang Dianshi talked about being emotional, he wiped the corners of his eyes lightly with the sleeve of his robe.

Chen Donglin who was sitting beside him hurriedly handed over the towel.

Li Zhen, another patrol envoy who came with Yuan Heng, couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "The local subordinates are so arrogant?"

"Isn't it?" Seeing that the other party was interested, Zhang Dianshi hurriedly cheered up and said, "Ximen Gong, the prefect of the county, is an official. He controls the seal and ribbon of the punishment room, and his cronies are all over the punishment room. He dares to dispose of daily official documents at will. There is Cai Yuan, the recorder"

Seeing Zhang Dianshi rambling on, Chen Donglin patted Zhang Dianshi's thigh lightly under the table.

Zhang Dianshi paused, Chen Donglin looked at him, and the latter took over the words: "My lords, the worst disaster in the county must be the new capital, Chen Chu."

Yuan Heng drooped his eyelids, as if he lacked interest in these trivial matters in Tongshan County.

But then, Chen Donglin's words aroused his interest.
"Then Chen Dutou has a mouth cream and soap workshop under his name, and his monthly profit is more than ten thousand yuan, but he has never paid a penny in business tax." Of course, Chen Donglin doesn't know how much the workshop earns, but he just talks about it.

"Oh? But that Yurong lip balm and soap?"

Yuan Heng looked up at Chen Donglin.

It seems that he has heard about these two hot products.

"Exactly!"

Seeing that things were developing in the direction he designed, Chen Donglin was shocked, and continued: "Master Zhou, do you know the origin of the word 'Yu Rong'?"

"I don't know." Zhou Yuanheng shook his head, showing some curiosity.

"It originated from a nobleman in the Caiwei Pavilion in the county. This nobleman's name is Yunong, and he gave birth to a beautiful woman, with skin that is as white as snow."

Chen Donglin lowered his voice, stretched out his body, "There are rumors that the white jade is flawless, and the whole body is white. There is a great beauty in it."

Zhou Yuanheng became more and more interested after hearing some nasty words that seduced people's hearts.

Just now, Zhang Dian, Shi Luo, and others are of no use to him.It's the subordinate official in Tongshan County who only covers the sky with his hands, so what has he to do with him?
But the two things Chen Donglin mentioned were within Zhou Yuanheng's scope of authority.

Tax evasion by workshops is one of them. It is recorded in "Qi Xing Tong": Anyone who evades taxes and evades ten guans is one hundred sticks, and more than a hundred guans will be abandoned in the market.
But in actual operation, it is often not as strict as it is implemented.

After all, most of the people who can open workshops are the gentry class. Even if the patrol envoys know about it, they turn a blind eye and close one eye, or pay some symbolic fines.

But Chen Chu is a subordinate official, so naturally he can't compare with the noble gentry, this patrol envoy can really handle him.

More importantly, the monthly profit of the workshop is tens of thousands!It was heartbreaking to hear.
Second, another duty of the Patrol Envoy is to 'seek fragrance'
Chen Donglin not only praised Yunong as rare in the world, but even collected poems published in her name on the headlines.

"Master Zhou, please have a look." Chen Donglin took out a piece of letterhead and handed it over with both hands.

Zhou Yuanheng spent a cup of tea, reading through the poems that were either graceful or majestic, and handed them to Li Zhen who was seated next to him. Finally, he showed the brightest smile tonight, "She is actually a talented woman?"

When the prime minister, Li Bangyan, known as the prime minister of the prodigal son, liked this one the most.
The end of Xu.

Zhang Dianshi sent Chen Donglin out.

Since Zhang Wenhao was unfavorable in his work a few months ago and gained the reputation of "Longyang Zhihao", he was left out by Zhang Dianshi, his close cousin.

Now Zhang Dianshi is often accompanied by Chen Donglin.

"Donglin, why did you prevent me from mentioning Ximen Gong, Cai Yuan and others' unauthorized use of power?"

Zhang Dianshi was slightly dissatisfied, but Chen Donglin bowed and said in a low voice: "My lord, we have made too many enemies, so it is inconvenient for us to use them. This time, we only need to start with the mouth cream and soap workshops, so that the two adults, Zhou and Li, can take the opportunity to eat their fill." , adults can always drink soup along with it.”

Hearing about 'drinking soup', Zhang Dianshi's expression turned pale, but he still said in a dignified way: "I have only public enmity with these subordinates, not personal enmity!"

"Yes yes yes." Chen Donglin, who had already figured out Zhang Dianshi's temperament, felt relieved.

"Hey, it's a pity that Xiao Yunong is gone." Zhang Dianshi sighed regretfully.

Chen Donglin explained patiently: "My lord, let's help the two lords find a beautiful woman. You and Lord Zhou are in the same year. With this kind of favor, it will do no harm to your lord in the future! Wait until your lord is transferred At that time, Lord Wanwang pulled his subordinates, and they also left Tongshan County with them.”

"It's easy to talk about, if you do this well, I will naturally plan something for you."

"Thank you sir!"

Chen Donglin bowed to the bottom.

But my heart is full of contempt. What time is it, and I still think about women!
At this moment, when he thought of Chen Chu and Yunong, he was filled with hatred.

A few months ago, during the conflict between civil servants and Zaoyi in Caiwei Pavilion, Yunong kicked him.

After recuperating at home for a few days, the words seemed harmless, but so far it was inhumane!

For one thing, recently, he has been enduring the resentment and humiliation of his wife day by day, but he has been unable to tell others about it.

But the current Chen Chu is no longer someone he can shake. Yunong is protected by Cai Wei, and now he is clearly following Chen Chu.

It also made him helpless. Just when he was at a loss, the same year of Zhang Dianshi was dispatched from the sky by a patrol envoy.

In Chen Donglin's gloomy world, a ray of light appeared
At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind, to ruin this pair of dogs and men!
　Thanks to Muzi Xingchen, my classmate for the reward~
