It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 720 Auction
Meng Mingzhou has been busy recently. He leaves early and returns late every day. Today he came back before lunch very rarely. Su Rui asked in surprise, "Why are you back at this time?"

Meng Mingzhou took off his armor, took the handkerchief Su Rui handed him with a smile, and said while wiping his hands, "Didn't the triplets get sick last night? I was worried, so I took leave with King Jing to come back and have a look..."

Su Rui went to the table and poured a cup of tea, and put it in front of him, "It's much better, Zong Yao and Zong Yu are not hot anymore, but Mu Mu's body temperature is still a little hot."

"Although I still have a little fever, I'm still in good spirits. I just ate half a bowl of custard and a small bowl of goat's milk."

"That's good."

Hearing this, Meng Mingzhou was relieved a lot. Since the birth of the triplets, the second and third children are fine, but Mumu is much weaker. She has been carefully raised for fear that she will get sick. Fortunately, she has been one year old since birth. Although I have been sick several times, it has never been serious. After taking a few doses of medicine, I will be fine within two or three days at most.

Seeing Meng Mingzhou drinking a cup of tea, Su Rui continued, "You came back at this hour, you must have not eaten?"

Meng Mingzhou nodded, "I didn't eat."

Su Rui looked at him, "What do you want to eat? I'll let the kitchen do it."

Meng Mingzhou thought for a moment and said, "Sweet and sour pork ribs? I haven't eaten for a long time..."

Su Rui smiled, "You're so lucky, you happened to buy a row this morning."

After lunch, Meng Mingzhou didn't have time to rest, so he put on his armor and left again.

Seeing Meng Mingzhou who left the table in a hurry, Jiang's heart ached, so he said to Meng Tao who was beside him, "Mingzhou is busy recently, you can see that he has lost weight."

Meng Tao stroked his beard and said, "It's okay for a man to be thinner, that's fine, don't worry about it."

After speaking, he stood up, greeted Meng Zhongshan, Su Chenrui, Su Chennan, Meng Mingxu, Meng Zongan and Nan Yu who were sitting beside him and said with a smile, "Come on, I haven't explained the chess game clearly to you this morning. Go back and continue."

Seeing all the men, big and small, Jiang shi left, she said helplessly to Su Wan and Nan Nan who stayed with her, "Shall we go too?"

Su Wan and Nanfang stepped forward to support Jiang, Su Wan said with a smile, "Grandma, this morning, the flower garden shop has already delivered a batch of this year's high-quality autumn chrysanthemums, and it should be almost finished, let's Shall I go and have a look?"

Jiang nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's go and have a look..."

The little guy's fever and cold will be healed within two days. Meng Zong'an still gets up early every day to greet Su Rui and teach his younger siblings how to speak. It's a pity that the three little guys don't have Meng Zong'an's language talent and sports talent. They are already full. At the age of one year, at most he can only stand with his hands on things, but he can't walk or talk.

Of course, it's also possible that Su Rui was pregnant with triplets all at once, which caused the nutrition of the three children in the womb to be less than that of the singleton, right?

At first, Su Rui was worried, so she specially invited the imperial doctor to see it. The imperial doctor said that although the triplets were weaker than singletons, they had no health problems. As for walking and talking sooner or later, it was different from person to person. Some children are more than one year old, and even two-year-olds learn to walk, and three- or four-year-olds learn to speak everywhere.

Su Rui trusted what the maternity and child experts at the Imperial Hospital said. After all, modern fetuses are supplemented with sufficient nutrition in the mother's womb, and there are also children who speak and walk late.

The day before Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu got married, Meng Mingzhou was called into the palace by His Royal Highness King Jing.

King Jing sat behind the table in the government hall, looked at Meng Mingzhou who was standing in the center of the hall, and said after a while, "Mingzhou, I heard that your younger brother and brother-in-law are going to get married tomorrow?"

Meng Mingzhou cupped his fists and saluted, "Yes."

King Jing raised his eyebrows, "You are in a hurry."

Meng Mingzhou twitched the corners of his lips and said honestly, "The day is calculated by the master in Puji Temple. The master said tomorrow, and if there is a suitable day for the two of them to get married, they will have to wait until the end of next year. The last general is also thinking about it." Without delaying Ms. Pei's family and Ms. He, I hurriedly set a date for the two younger brothers."

King Jing joked, "Okay, I'll just ask casually, you really explained so much..."

He didn't blame Meng Mingzhou either. He also knew that after news of his father's poor health spread, many engaged men and women in Yuncheng were rushing to get married recently. They were afraid that the national funeral would delay their children's marriage. It's all justifiable, and there's no need to blame anyone.

Meng Mingzhou pursed his lips and remained silent. He also knew that King Jing asked the question casually, so he explained it that way on purpose.

King Jing raised his chin and motioned, "Stop standing, sit down."

Meng Mingzhou sat down obediently, and continued to look at King Jing.

King Jing nodded to his subordinates, thought for a moment and said, "The officials who participated in the former prince's rebellion this time have been exiled and beheaded, and all the servants in the house have been sold."

Meng Mingzhou didn't know why he looked at King Jing.

King Jing hooked the corners of his lips, "Now there are many shops and houses waiting for sale in Yuncheng..."

Meng Mingzhou blinked and said intentionally, "Will His Highness King Jing reward the last general with a shop and a house?"

King Jing glared at Meng Mingzhou, "You think pretty well..."

Meng Mingzhou laughed, "If it's not for the last general, then what is the meaning of respecting the king?"

King Jing stopped joking, and said sternly, "You know about the chaos among several tribes outside the northeast border?"

Meng Mingzhou also put away his smile, "Yes, the general has heard about it."

King Jing nodded and said worriedly, "Now the national treasury is empty. Although the treasury has received a wave of money after this wave of house raids, if we want to fight a war, the money obtained from the house raids is absolutely not enough... "

Meng Mingzhou was silent for a moment and said, "So His Royal Highness King Jing intends to use the shop, house and Zhuangzi obtained from the confiscation of the house to operate? Does Your Majesty know?"

King Jing nodded slightly, "Well, my father woke up once a few days ago, and then fell into a coma again, but when my father was sober, he has already decreed that this king will take full responsibility during his illness."

Meng Mingzhou asked, "Does His Highness King Jing have any thoughts?"

"I'm thinking about selling most of them. Part of the money sold will be used to prepare food and grass, and part will be stored in the treasury for emergencies."

King Jing rubbed his forehead. He has been living in the government hall recently, and he hasn't been back to King Jing's mansion for more than ten consecutive days to rest. He feels that his thoughts are messed up now.

Meng Mingzhou tentatively said, "Your Majesty, at the end of the day, I will say it bluntly, it is not very cost-effective for the imperial court to sell it directly."

King Jing raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "Oh? Then what's Mingzhou thinking?"

Meng Mingzhou thought for a while and said, "Auction, anyone can buy it, and the one with the highest price wins."
