After crossing, I want to be with you every day

Chapter 288 Letter from the Capital
The County Magistrate Li distributed twenty carts of grain, but Lu Daxiong was not at a disadvantage, he was given all the silver that should have been given, and even praised him in the county government, praising him for his ability and thoughtfulness.

Lu Daxiong saw that the money that had been spent with great difficulty came back, and he was quite upset in his heart.

Fortunately, County Magistrate Li didn't just stare at him, but arranged for people to go to the southern country, and wrote a letter to the family to see if he could use the power of the family to help the people of Gaoyang County.

To be honest, County Magistrate Li couldn't get used to those sons of aristocratic families who held a lot of food but refused to sell it.

Food is the paramount necessity of the people, and you actually disregarded the lives and deaths of those common people in order to get rich. This really makes him disagree.

Lu Daxiong arranged for people to secretly transport [-] carts of grain from Liguo, but it took a lot of effort.

Of course, there was no lack of bribes to those little bosses at the border.

Although people don't want much, they can't hold back the amount of food they want to buy.

And those small bosses can't just get benefits for themselves, they have to flatter their superiors and then take care of their subordinates, so if they come and go again, the money will be spent more.

As much as possible, as long as you can buy cheap food, Lu Daxiong also recognizes it.

After all, there was no severe drought in Liguo, but there was a severe drought in their Dongping Mansion.

In the blink of an eye, it was October, and Liangzi arranged for people to bring back a lot of food in various ways.

It is no exaggeration to say that the food in the hands of the Lu family can fully support all the people in Qingshui Town for a year.

Of course, most of these grains are coarse grains. After all, coarse grains are cheap, while fine grains are too expensive.

In October, this food is not easy to buy.

Ordinary people will not sell food outside in winter, unless it is really a matter of life or death, otherwise they will stay for the winter.

Lu Daxiong arranged most of the food in Jingyuan, while a small part was hidden in Lujia Village.

There are two underground kilns in the house they built themselves, so storing food is naturally not a troublesome thing.

Lu Laohan sat on the porch, looking at a fallen leaf floating down in mid-air, feeling emotional in his heart.

"If there is a heavy snowfall this winter, the wheat should grow well after the spring of next year, and there will be hope for the summer harvest by then."

"Don't worry, it will."

Whether it will snow heavily or it will be very cold in the sky, they really can't say such things.

Anyway, they have already stored enough food now, and Jingyuan has started to store firewood as early as August, and even deliberately got down dead trees from the mountain. Up to now, several large firewood houses in Jingyuan are filled with firewood. There are piles of firewood, and the ordinary tenants who live here also have a lot of firewood in their homes.

Chen Xingyan remembered the pair of master and servant only after receiving news from Jingyuan that day.

Three months have passed in a flash, and she really forgot about those two.

When Chen Xinglou came over during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she heard her mention the matter of the master and servant of the Fu family. After a while of recollection, he thought of the Duke of Wei's mansion in the capital.

The surname Fu is not uncommon, but as my sister said, it is estimated that there are only one in the Duke of Wei's family who is surrounded by masters.

After learning about the origins of the pair of master and servant, Chen Xingyan treated them as usual, without paying special attention to them, and of course he did not treat them harshly.

The main reason why I went to see them in Jingyuan today is because Fu Yan's leg injury has healed.

It's just that Chen Xingyan was about to go out, so he received a letter from the capital first.

Chen Xingyan looked at the handwriting on the envelope and recognized it as Chen Xinglou's.

"Remember to tell your husband that I will be staying in Jingyuan today, and I won't be coming back."

"Yes, ma'am."

Generally speaking, as long as the wife is there, Inspector Lu must follow her there.

After Chen Xingyan got into the carriage, he opened the letter and read it.

Looking at it, Chen Xingyan felt that he had gotten into a big trouble!

If I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have saved them in the first place.

Tsk, so annoying!

Fu Yan punched a set in the yard, reconfirmed that he was all right now, and wanted to escort the young master back to Beijing.

Although Fu Chengan also missed his family, but when he thought about his current situation, he was still afraid.

"Young master, is there a letter from the eldest son?"

Fu Chengan shook his head and said, "It's been twenty days since my brother sent me a letter last time. I've told my brother everything I saw and heard, but my brother is only the eldest son now and has not inherited the Duke's mansion, and now my father is I love that new lady so much, I am afraid that even my elder brother can do nothing."

A cold light flashed in Fu Yan's eyes. If it wasn't for that stepwife, how could their mistress die suddenly?
"Young master, don't worry, even if the strength in the hand of the son is insufficient, there is still the uncle."

Fu Chengan sighed, he is just a child now, it is a blessing to be able to survive now, if he returns to Beijing, I am afraid that his step-wife will not spare him.

"Master Fu, our wife has arrived, and now we are waiting for you at the Sifang Pavilion in the Wind and Rain Corridor."

"Okay, it's work."

The master and servant looked at each other, then tidied up a bit and went to see the savior.

Fu Yan explained her purpose of coming, mainly to escort the young master back to the capital. Even if he didn't go back to the Duke of Wei's mansion, he could still send the young master to his uncle first. He couldn't be allowed to live in the countryside all the time. decent.

"Don't think about it anymore. Fu Shizi wrote to me, saying that the situation in the capital is unstable, so you two should stay here with peace of mind."

Fu Yan's complexion changed slightly: "What do you mean Ma'am?"

Chen Xingyan also had no intention of concealing it, and directly handed the letter to Fu Yan.

The letter was indeed sent by someone from Chen Xinglou, but in addition to a page of letter paper from Chen Xinglou, it also contained a letter from Fu Chengxu, the son of Duke Wei.

From what Chen Xingyan wrote in the letter, he could probably guess that Fu Chengxu was so careful to protect the little one in front of him.

Fu Yan read the letter quickly, and said with concern on her face, "Is that all? Then my family's eldest son brought someone to pass the message?"

Chen Xingyan shook his head: "Your family's son dare not disclose the matter of the two of you here, this letter was sent in my brother's family letter. You have also read the letter, and you should know that I have no need to lie to you. At this time, Duke Wei's mansion is fighting fiercely. If you go back now, you are afraid that you will distract the prince, and you will have to free up your hands to protect the young prince. It is better to live here, so that he can concentrate on dealing with the enemy. "

Fu Yan was silent.

Thinking about it carefully, Mrs. Lu's words are true.

On the other hand, Fu Chengan opened his eyes wide and said: "I always listen to my brother. Mother said, let me listen to my brother and not cause trouble for him."
