There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 491 Give Mother a Surprise (Revised)
Zhao Cong said, "Mother is hard at making soup, so eat an extra piece."

The corners of Luo Cheng's mouth twitched, as if he didn't care about Li Jiaoniang usually.

Bastard child!

eccentric!

Holding the hot soup bowl, Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Little Cong'er is the best."

Luo Cheng ate cakes and drank soup in a muffled voice.

Wang Ba's son doesn't like him, so he will give birth to a son himself!
When Li Jiaoniang turned her head and saw Luo Cheng with a serious face, she couldn't help laughing.

……

Sure enough, as Li Jiaoniang estimated, it was already evening when they arrived at Zhuangzi.

Their vehicles were walking on the country road, and they could see from a long distance, the smoke rising from the roofs of the farmers' houses in front of them.

The adults shouted the names of their children loudly.

Like a shepherd calling his lambs to the fold.

It was cold, but sunny.

The gorgeous sunset glow spreads across the western sky.

Li Jiaoniang lifted the curtain, pointed at Wanxia and said to Luo Cheng and Zhao Cong with a smile, "Look, Wanxia. The farming proverb says that if Zhaoxia does not go out, Wanxia travels thousands of miles. It seems that God has helped us, knowing that we will I have traveled far, and specially arranged for good weather. There is a sunset today, and it will be fine weather for several days in a row."

Luo Cheng said, "From this point of view, we can reach Lin'an in half a day, and we don't have to find a place to rest overnight on the road."

Li Jiaoniang thought of Lin'an City, and then thought of the real estate bought by the elder of the Li family.

That was left to her.

When she goes back in the future and passes through Longquan County, she must go to offer incense to the cheap father who died young.

He gave her a large inheritance, and she had to pay homage to him.

Li Jiaoniang said, "It's just right, I'm going to see the house that my own father left me, the small house at the second entrance is enough for us to live in."

Luo Cheng said, "If you haven't been there for a long time, I don't know who lives in that house."

Li Jiaoniang sneered, "Who else can it be? The left and right are just the second roommates of the Li family. The deed is in my hands, so I have the final say."

If it wasn't for Luo Cheng's luck to find those house deeds, she and Luo Cheng would have to rent a house when they went to Lin'an this time.

Although there is Zhao Cong as an adopted son, but without the approval of Emperor Gaozong, and there is a Queen Mother Wei who has a bad temper, she and Luo Cheng live in Zhao Cong's house, which will only arouse the dissatisfaction and anger of the ministers of Lin'an. Impeachment, and Empress Dowager Wei's accusations.

That was causing trouble for Zhao Cong.

Zhao Cong frowned, and said with dark eyes, "Mother, if someone occupies Mother's house and refuses to give it up, Cong'er will help Mother drive those people away."

Li Jiaoniang smiled gratifiedly, "I am very happy with your words. However, this kind of trivial matter will not trouble me, so you don't have to take action."

Zhao Cong said, "But I am willing to help my mother with things."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "I know you are sensible, but this is really just a trivial matter. When you return to Lin'an, you still have a lot of things to deal with, so we don't have to worry about our affairs."

Luo Cheng also said, "Cong'er, when we arrive in Lin'an, we will come to you if we have troubles that we can't solve. You should take care of your own affairs first, and don't think about us all the time. We are from the village of Yunhe County. How many things have you never seen when you came all the way to Yuezhou City? Do you still need to worry about it, little doll?"

As he spoke, he smiled and patted Zhao Cong on the shoulder.

Zhao Cong smiled slightly, "Alright."

……

While talking, the carriage had already entered the village, and it didn't take long before it arrived in front of Zhuangzi.

It was still dark, and in the evening, people came back to Zhuangzi at the gate of Zhuangzi one after another.

Some people came back from reclaiming wasteland in the mountains, and some came back from releasing horses.

Someone recognized Juan who was driving the car, and laughed loudly, "Fifth son, but the boss and Mrs. Li are here?"

Wuzi is Juan's nickname in the village. Most of the people in this village are from the Hu family village, and they work here temporarily.

There is no one in Hujia Village who does not recognize Juan who grew up eating hundreds of meals.

Juan replied with a smile, "Yes, the master wants to live in the village for a while, so go and inform my Seventh Uncle and the others."

"Okay." Someone hurried into the village with a hoe on his shoulder.

The gatekeeper opened the gate of Zhuangzi, and let the carriage and ox cart drive into the Zhuangzi together.

The main road in Zhuangli is flat, and horses and horses can walk directly to their small courtyard.

Juan parked the carriage in front of the courtyard where Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng lived, and Hu Laoqi, Asheng, the two Zhuangzi's stewards, came with a few people in charge of affairs.

Zhuangzi is big and has many things to do.

When she first took over Zhuangzi, Li Jiaoniang divided the tasks in the village.

Those who take care of the lotus ponds, those who play the orchard in Lizhuang, and those who feed the horses.Responsible for reclaiming the barren hills outside the village, and managing a few acres of farmland inside the village.

Therefore, each management area has a small steward.

Everyone gathered around the carriage, talking and laughing.

Li Jiaoniang got off the carriage first, followed by Luo Cheng, and finally Zhao Cong.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's go into the room and talk." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

After Juan parked the carriage, he swiftly ran forward and opened the main door.

Then, he was busy running back and forth to carry the luggage.

Luo Cheng led everyone into the room, Zhao Cong walked quietly beside Li Jiaoniang, without saying a word.

When he came here before, he was also very reticent. When everyone met each other, they called out to Luo Cheng to talk to him.

After all, he talked about the affairs of the village, such as how to dig ditches, how to collect mud for lotus root ponds, and how to treat horses.

Zhao Cong didn't understand a single question, so he sat quietly.

The same is true today.

Zhao Cong sat and listened to the conversation for a while, then went to watch Juan pack his luggage.

He put Zhao Cong's luggage in Zhao Cong's room.

Put the luggage of Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng in the main house in the east wing.

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng usually don't come to live in the manor, but there are women from the manor who often come to the house to clean the furniture, and the house is still clean and fresh.

When Ximei heard that Li Jiaoniang was coming, she brought two women with a brazier and put one in the main room, one in Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng's room on the east side, and the other in the room. In Zhao Cong's room on the west side.

Ximei is a brothel girl, she planned to live a good life with others, but she met Luo Fucai, a liar, and tricked Ximei to come to Yuezhou City.

If she hadn't met Li Jiaoniang and the others, Ximei would have been sold by Luo Fucai.

Li Jiaoniang arranged for Ximei to cook in the village. Ximei, who had never done farm work, became diligent in order to survive.

She smiled at Zhao Cong, "Young master, is the fire in the brazier strong enough?"

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng were busy talking to the stewards of the village, but Ximei couldn't get in the way, so she came to ask Zhao Cong.

Zhao Cong nodded, "Shang Ke." After thinking for a while, he said, "If Mrs. Mei is not busy tomorrow morning, please help me with something. Of course, you will not be short of errand expenses."

After Zhao Cong paid [-] of the [-] guan that Qin Xing paid to Zhao Cong, he kept the remaining [-].

Originally, he wanted to give it all to Li Jiaoniang, but he thought again, Li Jiaoniang must have invested all the money in the village and refused to spend it on himself.

Then he should stay.

When he has money, he can buy delicious and useful things for Li Jiaoniang.

Ximei only has more than 1000 points of monthly money in January, and she is thinking of ways to make more money every day.

Hearing that Zhao Cong gave tips for running errands, she immediately smiled and said, "Let's talk about it, young master, I will definitely help with it."

Zhao Cong glanced at the main room, and said, "Tomorrow is my mother's birthday, I want to make preparations to surprise her. Her room will be decorated with new, festive ones." After thinking for a while, he said, "Do it Cheng Xifang is the best."

It turned out to be just a little thing.

Ximei immediately nodded, "It's easy, it's not difficult, I'll get up early tomorrow and go to the market to buy."

"Here is twenty pennies to buy items. After finishing the work, I will give you the reward money. Remember, if you want to do it well, don't save me money. If you don't have enough, come and get it."

"Understood, young master." Ximei happily accepted the heavy purse.

Zhao Cong said again, "I'll call someone to help you, and you go in a carriage." He called out to Juan who was coming, "Juan!"

Hu An happily walked over, "Young master, what's the matter?"

Zhao Cong said, "Tomorrow morning, Mrs. Mei is going to the market to buy things. You drive the carriage to send her off, and run errands with her. If things are done, I will also be rewarded."

Juan smiled and said, "Okay!"

After arranging things, Zhao Cong left his west wing and walked towards the east wing.

Under the eaves of the corridor, he met the belated Ximen Fei.

Ximen Fei was wearing a half-worn cotton cloak and a black felt hat.

The brows were slightly raised, and the chin was slightly raised.

It is still the same as in the past, undisciplined and proud.

"Mr. Ximen." Zhao Cong waited for him to approach, and bowed his hands.

Ximen Fei was an inch shorter than him, so he wanted to look up at him.

But Ximen Fei looked down on this chaotic young man with amnesia.

He was unwilling to look up at Zhao Cong, so he stood on tiptoe, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly, "It turns out that the young master is here, and the young master is waiting here, what can I teach you?"

Zhao Cong is not confused now, he understands why Ximen Fei has such a proud expression.

He decided to kill Ximen Fei's vigor.

"I have heard for a long time that Mr. Ximen has excellent eyesight and is a sharpshooter. How about we have a competition?" Zhao Cong said with a smile.

Ximen Fei narrowed his eyes, what?
This fool dares to compete with him?

Ouch, is this a slap in the face?
Let's go, let's help you.

Ximen Fei nodded, "It's still early for dinner, so why don't you compare? What are you competing for?"

Zhao Cong tilted his head and thought for a while, "I don't know what kind of place in Zhuangzi is suitable for competitions. Sir is familiar with this place, so please make rules and find a venue."
