urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 198 Strict Investigation
Mother Wen's advice to Mu Zhaozhao not to take over the distribution in the near future is also justified.

She has only been in the house for a short time, and she doesn't know what kind of family the Xuanping Hou Mansion is with, socializing and entertaining, so she should get to know it first in the past two years, so that she knows it well.

Internally, you can't just take over and replace all the housekeepers, servants, maids and wives.

Then we must first find out the stewards inside and outside the mansion, how many of them can be won over, and which ones should be guarded against, and then simply throw them on Zhuangzi.

There is also the need to find out what public property the Xuanpinghou Mansion has.

When Mu Zhaozhao heard this, he patted his chest thankfully: "Thanks to the mother reminding me, I almost asked for trouble and asked for trouble."

"I have a field in my dowry, and a shop my husband gave me, which is enough for me to spend whatever I want. Why should I take over this mess?"

"You can't say that." Seeing that she had overcorrected and made her lose her fighting spirit, Sister Wen said again: "When you have children, you have to take over Zhongji."

"Sooner or later, the Xuanpinghou's mansion will belong to the prince, you can't let them fill your pockets."

"Besides, when you have children, you have to let them have a safe home, not like Shi Ziye did when he was a child, he didn't dare to walk around at home, and he didn't dare to eat and drink with peace of mind."

"Only if you take over Zhongfu, whether it's to scare the chickens to warn the monkeys or win people's hearts, you have to build the Xuanping Hou Mansion into a solid wall, so that you can live in peace of mind, right?"

After hearing this, Mu Zhaozhao understood that he really wanted to go left.

She was silent for a while before she spoke: "Fortunately, Mammy reminded me that I really wanted to go left before. When I go back, I will let the maids go out and walk around more, and find out first."

This requires employing people, only to realize that there are too few people available under my hands.

Mu Zhaozhao sighed: "When we go back, beat the people in Shi'anju first."

Looking at Sister Wen expectantly again: "Which one of the few that Sister Wen thinks has been stuffed into our yard is more suitable to be used as an example to others?"

Sister Wen took the opportunity to teach her: "Don't worry, the Concubine Shizi will ask for their deeds of prostitution when she goes back. I'll have a look at that time and I'll know which one is suitable."

She doesn't want to do everything for her master, then she will rely on herself more and more in the future.

But Mother Wen felt that her body was still a little weak, and she still needed more support.

She is also very happy to mention something about the concubine Shizi, but she prefers that the concubine Shizi can draw inferences from one instance, so that she can eat and drink in a mixed way.

It's really hard to take medicine when you are sick. Now that she is old, she feels that a good body is better than anything else.

Now she wants to be a salted fish, until she dies peacefully, so that she can drink the medicine like water.

Mu Zhaozhao also had some regrets: "Marriage is really annoying, it takes a lot of hard work, and I feel like I lost a lot of weight in a few days."

These words are too hard to listen to. Mother Wen is determined not to open her eyes and talk nonsense: "Ahem, Concubine Shizi, you look ruddy now, and you have gained a little weight. You definitely haven't lost a lot of weight."

"How is it possible? I have a big frame, which makes me look rounder." She would never admit that she was fat.

At this time, Yu Wanniang also walked in, and after carefully looking at her daughter from front to back, left and right, she smiled with satisfaction: "It's true that you're not very thin."

It seemed that she was indeed a little fatter, but she dared not say it, for fear that her daughter would make a fuss about losing weight.

Instead, he told her: "You are still growing, so eat more."

Thinking that her daughter is married, Yu Wanniang took it for granted that she should explain more, so she was worried that her daughter would be careless, and she would not know when she would have a child.

The main reason is that they are newly married couples. Don't think that she doesn't know what bad things the young couple did before.

Looking at her daughter's face that looks like a peach blossom, and her sparkling eyes, she knows that the relationship between husband and wife is very harmonious.

Sister Wen also added with a serious face how to get pregnant faster.

Mu Zhaozhao was blushing and wanted to cover his ears when he heard it: "Stop talking, I'm still young, and I'm not in any hurry to have a baby."

Seeing that her daughter was shy, Yu Wanniang could only change the subject: "That's right, you just got married, so there is really no need to worry."

Sister Wen also echoed: "You're right, it's better to clean up the house first, so that you can have children with peace of mind."

Although Mu Zhaozhao was a little embarrassed, it would be interesting for her to think that if she could give birth to a child as cute as her younger brother.

Outside, the mother-in-law next to Mrs. Meng invited their mother and daughter to have dinner together.

When their mother and daughter passed by, they found that Meng Yu and Qin Mu had also returned, talking to Master Meng with a serious face.

Meng Yi and the others listened attentively.

Early this morning, Meng Yu took a few doctors to Xuanpinghou Mansion to help.

After all, all the people in the house fell asleep, even a fool knew that someone must have tampered with it.

After Mu Zhaozhao went up to greet them, he asked curiously, "Father, what did you find?"

Meng Yu didn't hide their intentions either: "The person who did it was very smart. They put ## medicine in the water, and the medicine is very effective. It really paid a lot of money for you."

Qin Mu followed up and said, "I also went to the Criminal Department to ask. The people in the kitchen asked very carefully. The difference is that the people from the second uncle's side sent some mutton over."

"People from the Ministry of Punishment have also checked, but they haven't found anything yet."

"Those who were arrested are now locked up in the Ministry of Punishment. They are people from the rivers and lakes who used people's money to eliminate disasters. They all said that they had never met each other, and they just took money to act."

When Yu Wanniang heard this, she said worriedly: "Then what should we do? If the person behind the scenes is not found out, then you will not feel at ease living in the future."

Qin Mu was afraid of being looked down upon by his mother-in-law, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I have sent people to visit various stores in the capital that sell kerosene, and I should be able to find out who is behind the scenes."

At least, he now suspects the second uncle and the others in his heart.

During the day, Qin An was a toad who wanted to eat swan meat and insult his daughter-in-law. At night, the Xuanping Hou Mansion almost caught fire, making him want to destroy Qin An all the time.

And his intuition told him that there must be something inside that he hadn't noticed before.

Fortunately, this time the matter in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion caused a lot of trouble, and the impact was also very bad. The Holy Majesty asked Yao Anrong to bring the imperial guards to cooperate with him to investigate clearly.

Among them, the Criminal Ministry and Shuntian Mansion will also cooperate with them, and this matter will definitely be investigated.

Master Meng looked at Qin Mu worriedly and said, "Be careful outside, so as not to worry Zhao Zhao."

Mu Zhaozhao, who was watching the maids serving dishes, couldn't help drooling when he saw eight-treasure duck, stir-fried venison, sweet and sour carp, and other meat dishes he liked.

Now that he heard his grandfather mentioning himself, he quickly withdrew his gaze, and said with a cute face: "Cousin, be careful, don't rush ahead when you encounter problems, and make grandparents worry."

Anyway, she dared not admit that she wasn't worried about him.

But now it is obvious that grandfather is worried about him, but she dare not refute it by using her own name.

He said earnestly again: "Father, cousin, you have worked hard, the dishes are already served, shall we have dinner first?"

Really, if the meat dishes are cold, the taste will be worse.

"Okay," Meng Yu glanced sideways at his son, and then looked at his daughter with relief: "It's still my daughter who is caring."

Meng Yi: I feel that if there are too many sons, they are worthless.

...

"Idiots, they are all idiots!" The second old man was walking around anxiously in the study room, but he was afraid of being overheard, so he didn't dare to curse.

But the ugly face looked like he was about to die.

He lifted his foot and kicked his son, and then sat down on the grand teacher's chair panting heavily. After taking a deep breath, his cloudy eyes were filled with hostility, and he asked, "Are you sure there will be no problems with the people locked up in the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Father, don't worry, I didn't show up at all, and the money was also entrusted to someone."

Uncle Qin also had a serious expression on his face: "It's a pity that I spent a lot of money on those medicines, who knew they would be so useless."

After the old man took a deep breath, he said, "Don't pursue this matter any further."

Uncle Qin was very reconciled. He felt that this time he was really stealing money and spending tens of thousands of taels of silver.

However, the medicine the other party took out did not have the effect they boasted at all.

And the dozen or so people sent by the other party are not doing things well, which is too disappointing.

What worries him the most is that Qin Mu was polite to them in the past, but now he looks at them with scrutiny.

He knew in his heart that Qin Mu also had suspicions and defenses against them in his heart, and it might not be easy for him to do anything in the future.

Seeing his son's unwillingness, the old man was afraid that he would act recklessly, so he quickly said: "This is the end of this matter, you must never contact them again."

"Don't think those are pure Jianghu people, I suspect they were all raised by others."

"No way?" Uncle Qin was taken aback when he heard the words: "Who dares to be so bold?"

"Hmph, it's quick to get money like this, and the money is the guts of those people."

The second old man also regretted that he shouldn't have recklessly promised his sister-in-law to let Qin An kill the concubine, so that now they made a wrong step, and now he hopes that those are from the Jianghu, so that there will be no future troubles.

Otherwise, he was worried that those people would use this to threaten them with what to do.

Even if there are confidantes guarding outside now, the second old man didn't dare to talk to his son for too long, and waved him away: "I'll rot this matter in your stomach, go back."

Uncle Qin returned to his yard worried, saw his wife comforting his two crying daughters, and said impatiently: "Why are you crying? What time is it? Why don't you go back and rest."

The eldest wife asked the two daughters to go back to the room first, and then said angrily: "If you don't want to see us, then just go to the aunt and the others to rest, and make some evil fire at us."

If it wasn't for something, he wouldn't go back to the room, and he also prefers the young and charming Tong Fang.

But he did have something to do when he came back, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear what she said to him, so he held back his temper and said, "It's getting late, should you rest?"
