After I was spurned, the champion husband exploded

Everyone in the family has their own business, and the weather is just right that day. Zhou Yu and Ye'er brought out two large pots of sprouted wheat and chopped it in the yard with a bang.

Maltose is something that almost every household in the villages around Kyoto City makes. It is not a rare thing, but there are not many people who are willing to use wheat to make maltose to sweeten the mouths of their children.

Most people are still willing to spend three or four copper coins to buy some from a village vendor to sweeten the mouths of their children. Three or four copper coins can buy a pound of wheat, but a pound of wheat maltose is cheaper than three or four copper coins. Not much more, mainly because most people don’t want to take the trouble.

Both the master and the servant stomped until their arms were sore, but Ye'er was still the main force in chopping malt. After Zhou Yu chopped it for a few times, Ye'er rushed him aside to rest.

"Girl, your hand is just right. The doctor said you can't use force. It's better to let the slave do it. Just watch from the side."

Hearing what Ye'er said, Zhou Yu didn't force himself and simply watched Ye'er work.

After two large basins of malt were chopped, Zhou Yu took out the glutinous rice that had been steamed earlier, mixed it with the chopped malt, and then placed it in the basin and compacted it.

The master and the servant put a piece of gauze over the basin and put it in the sun. At night, when they felt it was almost done, they used gauze to squeeze out the water in the residue, and put the squeezed water into a large pot for boiling.

More than half an hour later, two large jars of maltose were ready.

Zhou Yu kept one jar for himself, and asked Ye'er to take the rest and share it with the servants at home. Ye'er was so happy that she hugged the boiled jar of maltose, thanked Zhou Yu, and went to the backyard. Where people live.

After a while, the cheers of the servants came from the backyard, mostly women's voices.

Among the people brought by Zhou Yu's family from Kyoto this time, there were many servants and maids. However, these maids did not stay at home to work, but went to work in the fields with the servants.

These maids all had poor family conditions before entering the mansion, and they had previously worked in the fields with their family members.

The most important thing is that if all the servants are brought to the house, it won't be a problem to have a bunch of maids left.

In Zhou Yu's heart, women are not much worse than men.

Next, in Jinjiacun, Zhou Yu's family is preparing for spring plowing.

In Kyoto City, after the kidnapping of Jiahe County Lord, the family moved out of the city to Jinjia Village. Although the Quan family later had an incident where mother and son were almost kidnapped on their way to Shangxiang, the Quan family still felt that the Anping County Prince's Mansion was They were afraid, so the family hid in the countryside.

The family is fine in front of outsiders, but they don't pay that much attention when they are in the house.

The most important thing is that they feel that with the secret guards of the eldest princess's mansion guarding them in the dark, nothing will happen to the Quan family at all.

But what they never expected was that this time the emperor sent out the Hidden Dragon Guards. Although there were not many Hidden Dragon Guards, each of them was a master. Their martial arts were more than one level higher than the secret guards of the Eldest Princess Mansion.

That's why the hidden dragon guards sent by the emperor have been monitoring the Quan family for several days, but the Quan family and the secret guards sent by the eldest princess's mansion have no idea.

The emperor has been able to secure this position for so many years, not to mention how capable he is, but in terms of patience, the emperor is not lacking at all, and he is very patient with the Quan family.

The people from the Hidden Dragon Guard had been monitoring the Quan family for more than a month, and finally discovered something unusual.

The eldest princess seems to be particularly concerned about Quan Xuan, the eldest son of the Quan family. In just over a month, Tian took her eldest son to the eldest princess's mansion several times, and every time the eldest princess would test Quan Xuan's homework. .

When the matter was reported to the emperor, the emperor looked at the secret letter brought by the Hidden Dragon Guard in his hand. Even he thought it was unusual. The eldest princess was born to Concubine Shu when the late emperor was still alive. However, Concubine Shu died of illness when the eldest princess was ten years old. However, the eldest princess was able to gain the favor of the late emperor all these years after her mother died of illness. She is also very talented in her own right. capable.

The eldest princess is very clear-headed, and she is smart and good at using others. It can be said that the eldest princess is indispensable for her success in ascending the throne.

For such a person, in all these years, he has never seen the eldest princess care so much about his sons.

But Princess Pianpian was so interested in the eldest grandson of the Quan family that he had to wonder if there was something he didn't know about?

Once the seeds of doubt were planted and the matter involved the eldest princess, the emperor became less calm.

After that, in addition to letting the Yinlong Guards continue to monitor the Quan Mansion, they also brought the eldest princess' Mansion with them.

There were no major problems in the Quan Mansion, but such surveillance in the Eldest Princess Mansion caused a big problem. The Emperor really didn’t know that there were so many capable people under the Eldest Princess’s command. He had known nothing about it all these years, but he What on earth does this eldest sister want to do?

I'm afraid no one can answer this question now. Only the eldest princess knows it.

But the emperor knew that even calling people to him would be a waste of time, so he simply did not waste that energy and continued to let the Yinlong Guards monitor the eldest princess.

After pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud, in just a few days, the people under the eldest princess's palace were involved in several corruption cases, both large and small.

In the Zhou Dynasty, corrupt officials had always been severely punished. This was also a means to ensure that officials were not corrupt.

Corruption can be big or small, and the amount of money embezzled by the eldest princess's people is not large, and they basically step on his bottom line. Therefore, the emperor intends to turn a blind eye to the corruption of the eldest princess's people. Closing one eye can be regarded as letting go of the eldest princess's previous support for him to become the emperor.

But it has never been the emperor's temperament to do good deeds without leaving a name, so he simply sent Eunuch Mao to the eldest princess's house to talk to the eldest princess about the corruption of her subordinates.

The weather here is really nice today. The eldest princess was strolling in the garden with a lot of maids and wives, and then she saw the gatekeeper running over in a hurry.

"Your Highness Princess, Eunuch Mao is here and has already come this way."

The eldest princess frowned slightly and looked at the boy who came to report the news.

"Do you know why Eunuch Mao came today?"

The boy is just a janitor. He only knows about important matters like this later, so he can't answer them at all.

"I don't know."

Seeing that the eldest princess couldn't find anything, she didn't ask any more questions and waved the boy to leave.

After a while, Eunuch Mao came over under the leadership of the housekeeper.

"This old slave has met Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

"How can Eunuch Mao still be so polite?"

"Your Highness, Princess, this ceremony cannot be revoked. This is a rule set by our ancestors.

The eldest princess also knew a thing or two about Eunuch Mao's temper, so she didn't say anything more after hearing what he said.
