Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 205 Plan ahead
That's right, the war in the west is the most important matter of the imperial court now. If there is a decree, it can be done whenever it is wanted. There is really no reason to say it!

"Last year's grain harvest was bumper, and the court's granary was full. We may not necessarily need our help in harvesting grain. Huier, you are too worried!" Second Master Yao shook his head.

For some reason, Master Yao couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when he saw that shopkeeper Hao and Accountant Lin attached great importance to Yao Cunhui's words.

That kind of awkwardness is like a grain of sand in a shoe. It's not a serious illness, it won't cause disability, but it's extremely uncomfortable and panicked, so that he has to choke with her before he can rest.

"So it's better to take precautions before they happen!" Yao Cunhui insisted.After a pause, he said again: "There is a lot of rain in spring, so if you can prepare in advance, it's better to prepare in advance!"

Master Yao Er finally couldn't listen anymore, and sneered slightly.There is a lot of rain in spring, but where can it go?Can it continue for another month or two?
What my wife said is right, this girl is full of gossip, she's a big kid!She is full of thoughts about grabbing power and exerting power, even if nothing happens, a few things will happen to make her different!
"Anyway, I don't think it's necessary," Second Master Yao's expression turned cold, and he said bluntly, "But Huier, if you insist, I have nothing to say!"

Since the eldest brother trusts her so much, and let her make troubles, let's see what tricks she can come up with!

"Then it's settled like this. Uncle Hao and Uncle Lin have any objections?" Yao Cunhui simply ignored Master Yao's anger and dissatisfaction, and directly assumed that he agreed, and asked about shopkeeper Hao and accountant Lin.

Shopkeeper Hao and accountant Lin looked at each other, both of them were a little stunned, they didn't expect Yao Cunhui's attitude to be so tough.

"Since that's the case, let's do as Second Miss said!" Shopkeeper Hao pondered for a moment, then nodded.He has always valued Yao Cunhui very much, so it is inevitable that he indulged her a little bit, but when he saw her insistence, he did not object.

However, there are still things to talk to her about.

"Then it's settled!" Yao Cunhui said with a smile, "I'll do the inspection of the warehouse, and quickly transfer the rice grain to Beijing. Please worry about the second uncle and the two uncles!"

"Okay, since my niece arranged it this way, let's do it!" Master Yao Er said coldly, lifted his robe, and got up with a cold face.

Yao Cunhui turned a blind eye, while shopkeeper Hao and accountant Lin looked at each other and smiled wryly.

Shopkeeper Hao winked at Accountant Lin, but Accountant Lin declined because he had something to do, so he got up first and said goodbye.

"Miss Second," Shopkeeper Hao sighed softly when he saw that there was no one in the room, looked at Yao Cunhui and said earnestly, "Forgive me for saying a few words presumptuously in front of Miss Second. The second owner is an elder after all, why should Miss Second fight against him?" Woolen cloth!"

"Uncle Hao," Yao Cunhui said with a wry smile, "Where is my quarrel with Second Uncle? You have also seen that Second Uncle has a prejudice against me, and it is useless for me to humble myself!"

Yao Cunhui knew very well that it was Mao who really had a prejudice against her.She refused to stay in the mansion to take care of Mao's pregnancy, and Mao must have hated her even more.

After a series of events last year, Second Master Yao already had a grudge against her in his heart, and Mao Shi fanned the flames on the sidelines, blowing the cloudy wind by the pillow, and the grudge that had calmed down in Master Yao's heart would easily ferment again , sprout, and then burst out.

That's why Master Yao Er always disliked her no matter what she did, he would always have various ideas.

For the Mao family, Yao Cunhui memorized all the old and new accounts!If the house is to be peaceful, this woman must be knocked out of the dust, and she will never be able to speak again!
It's a pity that she is pregnant again now!
No matter how much Yao Cunhui thought about it, she had to endure it. She couldn't do anything to a pregnant woman.

Shopkeeper Hao smiled wryly, and sighed: "The Second Boss——ah! In fact, I also think you are a little too careful about this matter! What the Second Boss said makes sense."

"It's never wrong to be careful," Yao Cunhui still insisted on his own opinion, and said with a smile: "Too many things have happened to the Yao family's rice business in the past half a year. Who knows if the Lu family will give up so easily? Father, this time going south, at least It takes three or four months to come back, but we must know that the embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed by ant nests, and we can never go wrong if we prevent problems before they happen!"

Shopkeeper Hao was stunned, and said with a smile: "That's true! Don't worry, the second lady, since the lady has said so, we will definitely cooperate with the lady to make things better!"

Although shopkeeper Hao felt that Yao Cunhui was a bit strange for being stubborn, but thinking about what she said was not wrong, it is always good to be careful!

"Thank you, Uncle Hao!" Yao Cunhui smiled sweetly.

Seeing the back of shopkeeper Hao leaving, Yao Cunhui sighed softly, staring blankly at the empty front, lost in thought.

How did shopkeeper Hao know?Yao Cunhui clearly recalled the memory of the previous life from what happened yesterday. In the 23rd year of Delin, the capital area would suffer from a flood that had not happened in a century. It rained continuously for two months.

In her previous life, she huddled in a small building and didn't care about world affairs, but it was raining heavily, so how could she not know.She didn't need to think about the consequences of the continuous heavy rain for two months.

In addition to the business as usual, the rice bank started to transport grain to the warehouse according to Yao Cunhui's plan.Fortunately, there are countless warehouses in the three major grain farms of the Yao Family Rice Company. After a rough calculation, there is no need to build new ones, which is enough.

Yao Cunhui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise, if she proposed to build a new granary at this time, she might have another quarrel with her second uncle.

On the other hand, Yao Cunhui collected a huge amount of dry firewood under various pretexts and stored them in an abandoned warehouse leased outside the city.

With the help of a drizzle, the housekeeper also bought a lot of firewood and briquettes under this psychological hint.

The inspection of the warehouse has been successfully completed, and the first batch of grain delivered to Beijing has been successfully put into the warehouse. Yao Cunhui heaved a sigh of relief, and stopped going out of the city every day, staying in the main store to study with shopkeeper Hao and others.

At noon that day, someone from the mansion came suddenly, saying that it was Fourth Aunt who asked her to go back to the mansion quickly!
Yao Cunhui's heart tightened, and she subconsciously thought of her younger brother, who was about to be three months old, told shopkeeper Hao, and hurried back home.

Before his father left, he told her to take care of his younger brother, but she personally agreed!

Yao Cunhui went back to the mansion and went straight to the Liuhua Mountain House, but the Fourth Aunt didn't want her to stay in the Luomei Courtyard, which happened to be different.Yao Cunhui hurried back from Liuhua Mountain House again.

"Second Miss! Second Miss!" Si Yiniang looked flustered, her face was pale, and she ran up like crazy, holding Yao Cunhui's hand tightly as if grabbing a life-saving straw: "Second Miss, madam, madam put Zhe'er took away! She took Zhe'er away!"

"Auntie!" Yao Cunhui was taken aback, then lightly squeezed Fourth Aunt's hand, and comforted her: "Don't worry, mother is just taking Zhe'er to see, nothing will happen!"

Yao Cunhui couldn't help looking at Fourth Aunt with some pity.

Fourth Yiniang is also very clever, firstly she is afraid of Ma Shi, secondly because she is concerned about her, she is chaotic, she lost her composure to this point.

If Mrs. Ma really wanted to do something, it would definitely be done in secret, and maybe he would play tricks like borrowing a knife to kill people.She took the child away openly and aboveboard, she would never dare to do anything to the child!

Perhaps, this was just a temptation for her.

If Fourth Aunt had no objection and he was willing to give her the child, even if Master Yao came back, he would not be able to say anything.

Therefore, even if it is a temptation, it will not work!Break her mind too!
Fourth Aunt knew it right away, fixed her eyes on Yao Cunhui, nodded her head, and her panicked heart slowly returned to calm.

"Let's talk in the room." Yao Cunhui smiled and gently pulled out her hand.

Seeing a bright red mark on Yao Cunhui's snow-white slender wrist, Fourth Aunt apologized a little apologetically, Yao Cunhui smiled and said it's okay, and the two entered the room.

Apart from what Rong Ma knew, all the maids were secretly shocked by Si Yiniang's trust in Second Young Lady: everyone tried to persuade her for a long time but couldn't persuade Second Young Lady, one word made her calm down.

"What's going on, Auntie, tell me!" Yao Cunhui asked with a smile.

The fourth aunt licked her lips, and said in a shy voice: "After breakfast, Mother Qiao came to the Liuhua Mountain House suddenly, saying that Madam wanted to see Zhe'er, and the servant girl dared not refuse, so she planned to carry Zhe'er with her. Who You know, Mother Qiao doesn't allow it, she said it's good to let the concubine rest in the room, and she will take the nanny.

"Maybe my mother just wants to see Zhe'er, is my aunt being overwhelmed?"

"Second miss," the fourth aunt shook her head, and said urgently, "The nanny has been holding Zhe'er for almost two hours! Madam's housekeeper has always been busy, if she really only wanted to look at Zhe'er, there is absolutely no reason to keep Zhe'er for so long Maid concubine, maid concubine, in her heart—”

"Don't worry, let's go to mother's place to have a look!" Yao Cunhui said, looking at fourth aunt.

She could imagine what kind of torment Fourth Aunt had felt in her heart during the nearly two hours.

"Thank you, Second Miss!" Fourth Aunt was overjoyed, and a smile appeared on her anxious expression.

What Yao Cunhui and Si Yiniang didn't expect was that they saw Mao's presence in the hall of the main courtyard.

Ma Shi held Yao Shizhe in his arms and was teasing him, while talking with Mao Shi while laughing.

"Mother! Second Aunt!" Yao Cunhui stepped forward and bowed her knees.

Fourth Aunt hurriedly stepped forward to see her.

"Didn't Hui'er go to the rice shop to help today? Why come to me now when you have time!" Ma Shi put on a half-smile, and his sharp eyes slashed across Si Yiniang's face like a knife.

Fourth Aunt was shocked and lowered her eyes.

Yao Cunhui smiled, didn't answer her question, and didn't beat around the bush, and said straightforwardly with a smile: "Mother, Zhe'er is still young, and it's time for him to rest. Let the nanny take him back."

"Hui'er is getting more and more capable," Mao giggled weirdly, "You have to take care of everything!"

"What?" Mrs. Ma sneered, patted Yao Shizhe's swaddling baby lightly, and brushed Yao Shizhe's small face with hands with long onion-like nails, "Since you still know how to call me mother, I will Can't you just look at the child a few more times?"

"You go back! The more I look at this child, the more I like it. Zhe'er and the nanny will stay with me for two days!" Mrs. Ma looked at the fourth aunt with a half-smile: "Does the fourth aunt have any objections?"
