Chapter 140 She Scolded Me
Han Mo took out the picture from his pocket: "I asked Dou Yin to draw it. The original picture has been sent back. Take a look." He pointed to a place on the picture, "This is the farm you mentioned. Next to it is the ancestral grave of your Su family."

Su Luo held it in her hand and quickly recognized the location.This should be the boundary map for the division of fields and mountains in each county-owned village. She said, "Is it the most recent map?" Since farmland and mountain areas may face sales, this kind of map will have to be changed every once in a while. new.

"It was replaced at the beginning of the year." Han Mo pointed to the boundary line between the mountain and the land, "From the boundary line, this village has a total of [-] mu, which is shared by several families. It used to belong to the same big family, but a few years ago It was sold out all of a sudden, and it was sold in a hurry, so I didn't have time to wait for someone who is capable of taking over, so I divided it into several pieces and sold it."

"Who is this big family?"

"I don't know." Han Mo shook his head, "The chief said that the real owner never showed up, and that Zhuangzi had been in the hands of this person since before the chief became the chief, and he couldn't find the file.

"As for the person who came out to buy and sell and managed the farm, it was someone else. I heard that he didn't look like an ordinary person. I thought he was the owner at first, but they didn't know about them until they mentioned 'owner' when they sold the farm. It’s also for people to run errands.”

Su Luo was confused: "There are such mysterious landlords. So, are they the ones who want to buy back these scattered fields now?"

"It's not impossible." Han Mo pondered, "If a businessman or official encounters a business failure or is demoted in the middle of the business, so he sells the property, and later the fortune is prosperous, and the east wind returns, and he wants to buy it back. very common.

"But the question is, what is it about this farm that they are entangled with? The guards have been asking for a long time at the entrance of the village. The people in the village have lived there for generations. It stands to reason that they know everything about it, but they have never heard of the farm. Something strange happened."

The ability of the guards around Han Mo to search for clues is unquestionable, that is to say, the farm itself should be nothing special.

The problem can only be with the people related to the farm.

Su Wei thought: "It seems that we still have to find a way to stay with this person who wants to buy the farm, so that we can find the answer."

Han Mo straightened his clothes: "I've told Song Yan to arrange someone to stay there."

Su Luo knew that Song Yan became Han Mo's right-hand man based on his scouting skills. Since he was in charge, he could rest assured.

After taking a sip of tea and planning to leave, I remembered again: "How did you invite Mr. Song for Su Qi?"

This can be regarded as a stab at Han Mo's arrogant tendon, he put his elbows on his bent knees, and said: "I, Han Mo, stand upright, and I will do what I promised, let alone say yes." The Song family, even the imperial court, I can invite them!"

Su Luo squinted at him, seeing that he had done a good job, so she didn't want to pierce his cowhide.

Putting down her tea, she said, "I'm going to continue selling locks with Qin Ye. Have you figured out how to cover me?"

Han Mo said: "Don't run to Nancheng, too. I have a small house in Taiping Hutong behind Guozijian Main Road, which has been vacant all the time. You can go there to make locks. The servants there are reliable. .”

Su Luo thought for a while, but was not polite to him.

There are people coming and going in the sesame oil shop, and anyone can enter, which is really not safe enough.At least few people dared to break into Han Mo's house.

"Then every time I sell a lock, I will give you ten taels of silver as rent money. Is it possible?"

This price is not low, based on the number of locks she sells alone, even if she rents a garden, she can rent it.

"Who do you look down on?" Han Mo squinted, "How much money do I need?"

"No matter how rich you are, I have to be clear with you," Su Wei rolled her eyes, "I'm a big girl, what's the point of taking advantage of a man?"

Han Mo choked and didn't reply for a long time.

Su Luo got up and went out.

Outside the door, there are colorful fallen flowers, the skirts pass over the threshold, and the slim back blends into the rain of flowers, instantly becoming a poem and painting.

……

Ever since Han Mo appeared, Mrs. Lu was no longer in the mood to admire flowers.Of course, she didn't come to enjoy the flowers.She's here to propose marriage.The point is that this proposal of marriage is obviously sloppy. Lu Ling did not get Su Shou's approval, failed to show his excellence in front of others, and did not let the Su family find out that he is a rare son-in-law. awkward.

After walking half a circle with Xu and the others absent-mindedly, she couldn't bear it anymore.Just in time, I saw Lu Ling approaching from a distance, so I said goodbye to Mrs. Xu, saying that there was something else to do.

On the way back, the mother and son rode alone in a car and rode a horse without talking.When she entered the house, she didn't have time to sit down, so she turned around on the threshold of the room: "What on earth does the Su family mean? Don't tell me you're not good enough for that tough young lady of their family? Then Mrs. Su turned away from her as soon as she met her." Put on that pose!"

Lu Ling was thinking all the time, and sighed when she heard this, and sat down listlessly: "Mother, don't pick on Ms. Su, she has always been very polite."

Mrs. Lu was stunned: "You still speak for her?"

"I thought about it, and I think what she said is quite reasonable." Lu Ling looked up at her, "We really want to use the Su family to achieve our goals. Even if the marriage is good for the Su family, it must be done after they succeed in getting father It only counts if you transfer to six parts.

"Doesn't this mean that the Su family has to give benefits to the Lu family before they can get their benefits? Even if the Su family is not losing money, it can't be said to be a profit."

Mrs. Lu was so shocked that her eyes widened: "But with your talent, you will definitely be able to help the Su family in the future. Is this their only vision?"

"Then I don't know." Lu Ling spread her hands and leaned back on the chair back, "Anyway, Miss Su doesn't seem to like me at all. She scolded me just now."

"What?!" Mrs. Lu was really terrified, "She still scolded you?!... Ha!" She sneered angrily, "I said that girl has a bad temper, but now I can see She dared to scold you!... Well, it's better to end it as soon as possible, our Lu family can't afford such a daughter-in-law!"

"Although she scolded me, what she said was not wrong." The Lu family frowned, "I used to think she was beautiful, but today I found that she speaks in an orderly manner, neither humble nor overbearing, and very decisive. Different women, no less than those men I know... So even if I was scolded by her, I didn't feel very humiliated."

Madam Lu stared at him blankly for a while, then suddenly roared and grabbed his arm: "Are you stupid for studying?!..."
