After clearing Xiaomeng

Chapter 488 Madam Kong

The arsenal that Yinzhen set up in the village outside the city resettled all the villagers there into the city.

Those villagers moved happily, and it can be said that they have "urban household registration" all of a sudden, which is quite amazing!
The whole village was emptied, and Yinzhen put the gunpowder he got into the villagers' homes. The quantity was a bit huge, but as long as you didn't light it on purpose, there was basically no problem.

After the spring of next year, Yinzhen will start investing in a large-scale construction of a factory, and Yinhu will be in charge.

Yinhu looked at the gunpowder brought in and asked, "Fourth Brother, if these explode, the entire capital will tremble."

"Who wants to click it because they have nothing to do and don't want to live?" Yinzhen said angrily.

"Uh... will the prince play tricks?"

"Probably not. What we are doing is a major event that benefits the country and the people. The prince should support it." Yinzhen still had a glimmer of hope for Yinfeng, believing that he would not be so brainless.

Yinhu was still worried about the prince: "Fourth brother, I'll send someone to be on guard, there can't be any accidents with so much gunpowder."

"Okay." Seeing that the new year is coming, Yinzhen also hopes to have a quiet year, besides, few outsiders here know that they are all brothers of his own family, and no accidents can happen at all.

Yinzhen didn't hide from anyone about building a weapons factory. If any of the brothers had a good idea, he would naturally listen to it with an open mind.

Seeing that the New Year is coming soon, according to the rules, Xiao Jiu has to celebrate the New Year at her in-law's house, and if she doesn't have her husband's house, she has to spend the New Year at home alone with Kong Xiuming.

Su Wanchun felt that it was very unfair, but there were many sayings in ancient times, such as saying that married girls are not allowed to look at their natal lamps, do not prepare sacrifices, etc. It is very troublesome anyway.

Xiao Jiu had no choice but to buy New Year's goods with Kong Xiuming, and the whole family would celebrate the New Year together, which would be lively.

Kong Xiuming has no father and no mother, so he cannot be sure that he is a descendant of the Kong family just by using a token.

Besides, Kong Xiuming didn't want to look for him either. Based on his remaining memories, his parents left him behind, that is, they abandoned him.

Xiaojiu bought the New Year's goods on the street, took Lamei and others back to the house, and just arrived at the door, and saw a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman standing at the door.

Lamei walked up to the middle-aged woman, and asked politely, "My lady, I wonder what you are doing standing in front of the princess mansion?"

"Excuse me, I'm Kong Xiuming's mother."

When Xiao Jiu heard this, her face tightened: "I am Princess Wen Xian, what evidence do you have to say that you are the mother-in-law of the forehead?" Don't admit it sooner or later, but she came here after I got married with Xiu Ming, she must not What a good intention, regardless of whether it is true or not, I will treat each other with courtesy for the time being, and I will talk about the rest.

"I once left a sign for my son. That sign was passed down from our ancestors, which can prove that I am Xiu Ming's mother."

"Then why did you leave Xiuming behind?" Xiao Jiu asked.

"That's because I have unspeakable difficulties." When the middle-aged woman said this, tears fell, and she looked very pitiful.

Xiao Jiu is a person who has traveled all over the rivers and lakes, and tears have no effect on her at all.

"Really?" Xiao Jiu didn't believe it. If it was her, even if she really couldn't survive, she wouldn't just throw her child on the street as a beggar!

At this time, Kong Xiuming came out from the gate, saw that Xiao Jiu was a little upset, and quickly asked, "Who made you unhappy, I'll beat him!"

"She said it was your mother." Xiao Jiu said.

Kong Xiuming looked at the middle-aged woman in surprise, and reached out to touch his face: "Put it down, I don't look like her, do I?"

"You are like your father." The middle-aged woman said excitedly.

Kong Xiuming twitched his lips and said disdainfully: "First of all, I don't know what my parents look like. They threw me on the street when I was two or three years old, and I was a beggar for several years. Do you think that even if you are my mother, I will recognize you?"

"Mother is wrong, give mother a chance!" said the middle-aged woman, stretching out her hand to pull Kong Xiuming.

Kong Xiuming avoided it: "Don't come here, you must have heard about my life experience, so you want to pretend to be my mother?"

"No, no, mother has money, so I don't need you to do anything!" The middle-aged woman hurriedly explained.

Kong Xiuming took Xiao Jiu's hand, turned around and walked into the yard: "Whether you are or not, it has nothing to do with me. I don't care at all. When you left me, the relationship between us was already over. Broken, so you die this heart."

"One hundred acts of filial piety, no matter how much I have done wrong before, you should forgive mother!"

"Pull it down, forgive yourself!" I'm not a filial person, besides, I'm my mother just by saying a few words to you?

Xiao Jiu stopped in her tracks and asked the middle-aged woman, "What's your surname?"

"Everyone calls me Mrs. Kong. Xiu Ming's father has passed away, and now I am alone. When I heard that the forehead is Xiu Ming, I was quite surprised until I secretly saw him. Only when he looks like my husband, can he be sure that he is my son." Madam Kong said.

Xiao Jiu smiled: "Is it true? I will send someone to check it out. You should go to the inn first."

"Can……"

"Madam, please." Xiao Jiu had almost finished speaking, and she didn't want to talk nonsense with her.

Mrs. Kong was unwilling to leave, but seeing Kong Xiuming dragging Xiao Jiu into the door, she could only leave sadly.

Xiao Jiu saw Mrs. Kong leaving through the crack of the door, and turned to Kong Xiuming, "Do you think she is not your mother? But she said something about the sign."

"If it's true, the Kong family is the descendant of Jin Yiwei from the former dynasty. Judging by her clothes, she should be very rich. Even if they have earned it over the years, they have the capital to allow them to develop, right? So, when you threw me , there must be another purpose." Kong Xiuming is not stupid, he just doesn't want to play tricks with his own people.

"Do you think they want to use your status as a son-in-law to achieve ulterior secrets?"

"If there's anything you can't tell others, let's go against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty!" Kong Xiuming saw it clearly.

Xiao Jiu sighed: "I'd still send someone to check her details carefully. If it's really your biological mother, if you don't admit it, other people's saliva can drown you."

"Her eyes told me she wasn't a nice person."

"..." Xiao Jiu.

Lamei came over and asked cautiously: "Princess, who will you send to investigate?"

"My fourth brother is the best at checking up on a person's affairs. Xiu Ming and I are going to find fourth brother now." Xiao Jiu said.

"Aren't you coming back for dinner tonight?" Lamei asked.

"I'm not coming back." Now that I've gone, I don't plan to come back on an empty stomach!

Lamei smiled helplessly. Even if the princess is married, she still behaves like a child!

Kong Xiuming nodded: "I listen to you, let's go."

"Yeah." Xiao Jiu took Kong Xiuming's hand, and the two went out.

Lamei thought about Mrs. Kong just now, and felt that she was not a good person. If she was really the mother-in-law of the forehead, then her own princess would have a mother-in-law. What if there were quarrels in the future?

Thinking of this, Lamei began to worry again.
