Chapter 42 The Old Lady

In a luxurious carriage, a delicate and handsome girl stepped down, and the girl turned around and helped an old lady get off the carriage.

One old and one young stood in front of the carriage and looked at Kapok with a smile, and Kapok ran over happily: "Old lady."

It was Mrs. Cai, Mrs. Chen and her maid, Qiao'er, who came here.

When I saw the old lady in the backyard of the magistrate's yamen before, the old lady was wearing cotton clothes of ordinary people, no different from ordinary people, but today she was wearing a dark red Shu brocade narrow-sleeved gown, with beads and emerald emeralds on her head. I bought several golden hairpins, so rich.

Qiao'er was also dressed very grandly, and those who didn't know thought it was a rich lady.

And behind them, there were six government servants with knives, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the old lady was of extraordinary status.

"Girl, the old lady is here to see you." Mrs. Chen opened her arms and supported the kapok who was rushing over, "Let the old lady take a look. Well, your complexion is getting better, and your skin seems to be much whiter. Is your height growing too?" Is it? Oh, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I'm going to be a big girl with a lot of water."

So many people were looking at this, and the old lady was still boasting so loudly that she was ashamed to praise Kapok.

"Old lady, you are not in good health. Why did you travel so far to see the village? Ask Qiaoer to bring a message, and I will go to see you."

Mrs. Chen shook her head. She only found out from her son in the past few days that it was not Zhiyan who helped Mu Mian before, but Mu Mian who gave Zhi Yan advice to deal with that hateful Liu Xiancheng.

Now that she knew about it, how could she sit idly by?
Be grateful.

She thought for a long time, and asked Qiaoer to inquire about the situation of Mu Mian's house, and she knew about her family's affairs. But she was covered by her old lady.

So, she and Qiao'er thought about making such a big scene.

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, she straightened her clothes, put on the air of the county magistrate, and said to Qiao'er: "Go, take the gift that your magistrate prepared for Kapok."

Qiaoer bowed and said yes.

Over there, Wu Lizheng, who followed the old lady all the way, also greeted him, and said to Mu Mian: "Kapian, please don't treat the distinguished guest slowly, tell grandpa if there is anything that is missing at home, and go to grandpa's house to get it."

Kapok said: "Grandpa Wu, you and the old lady can go to my house and have a sit down."

Wu Lizheng had this intention at first, he pointed to Zhou Goudan and Liu Shi who were lying on the ground not far away, and said, "What's going on with them?"

Kapok then said the matter.

Wu Lizheng secretly hated himself for talking too much. Isn't this embarrassing the village in front of the old lady?
Thinking of a sharp knife flying towards Zhou Goudan.

Wu Li was quite prestigious in the village, but Zhou Goudan was a fool, but he was also afraid that Wu Li would show his power, so he shrank his neck and dared not speak.

The old lady on the side was also very angry when she heard this, and ordered someone to beat Zhou Goudan and the others.

Now that County Magistrate Cai has established his prestige in the yamen, the yamen servants who came with him will not be obedient and obedient, and they will immediately drag Zhou Goudan and the others down to beat the board.

Kapok didn't want to make it too embarrassing, so he persuaded the old lady to come down and let Zhou Goudan and the others go.

Then, kapok helped the old lady into the house.

The people in the village outside the house were still in a daze. The old lady of the county magistrate actually came to Kapok's house as a guest?Is kapok's face that big?
Who are they looking for to lose face today?
Everyone looked at Zhou Goudan, it was really embarrassing to be naked and twirling around.

Inside the house, Sanwu and Li Changyuan also saw and heard what happened outside the house.

Li Changyuan didn't react much, after all, he had seen Mu Mian's clean-up back then, and he could see that she was good at martial arts, but now he couldn't feel her power at all, so he wasn't surprised at all. idea.

Sanwu is not as calm as Li Changyuan, is this really a farm girl?The aura around her is stronger than those noble ladies in the capital, right?
He felt a little palpitated just now.

Sanwu accepted some contempt for kapok, but in his heart he still felt that kapok was not good enough for his master. In his heart, his master was a good boy who had no place in the world, and it would not be too much to match a fairy .

Kapok, who was disliked by Sanwu, was chatting with the old lady in the house, but most of the time it was Wu Li who was talking, talking about the customs, customs, geography and products of Daluo Village.

In order to save face for Mumian, Mrs. Chen listened carefully to what Wu Lizheng said, and promised him to let her county magistrate's son come to the village to have a look.

This is a great thing, and the atmosphere in the room is very good for a while.

Taking advantage of the excitement, Mu Mian told her that he wanted to build a house. Wu Lizheng was very surprised, and Gu Yueniang and Feng Dashan were also very surprised, but now that the family is all headed by Mu Mian, they didn't say anything.

Only the old lady said: "Your house is really small, and now the few of us can't sit down. It should be bigger."

As soon as Wu Lizheng heard this, he immediately agreed: "The houses next to your house are empty houses that no one lives in, so you can demolish the houses on the right and rebuild them. Although there are not many empty foundations in the village, they are not bad. One of yours." The last time when Mrs. Yu drugged him, he still felt that he owed Kapok, and he agreed so happily to make up for it. Of course, it was also because Kapok had a good relationship with the county magistrate.

Mu Mian was surprised to hear this. Several empty houses on the right were demolished, and the entire foundation was not small.She heard from Aunt Li that some boys in the village have already married and are applying for approval of foundations, but there are few foundations in the village, but they have not yet been approved.

Kapok is also a knowledgeable person, so he immediately said, "Grandpa Wu, thank you very much. But there is one more thing I would like to ask you to help with."

Wu Li was taking a puff of dry cigarette and said calmly: "Let's listen to it."

Kapok said: "Building a house requires a lot of labor. I am too young to understand these things. I will have to trouble my grandfather to find some reliable uncles in the village. Don't worry, I will pay more than the price in the city." Thirty percent."

Wu Lizheng was still thinking about how he would refuse if Mu Mian made any exorbitant demands, but now he laughed out loud: "Okay, okay, this is up to Grandpa Wu." There are quite a lot of workers who need to build this house , bricklayers, carpenters, painters, and small workers all add up to a lot of manpower and financial resources. If they all find people in the village to work, this is a good thing to sell favors, and it can also reduce so many gossips. .

Wu Li was nodding his head, he knew that this girl would be up to something.

When the old lady left, Wu Lizheng sat for a while and his son also left.

Seeing the two carriages driving out of Daluo Village, the news that the county magistrate was behind the kapok was spread all over Daluo village. Some people didn't believe it. Who of them didn't know the nature of kapok?Lazy and selfish, how could the county magistrate befriend someone like Mu Yaomian?

This incident naturally reached the ears of Mrs. Cai.

Mrs. Cai didn't expect that kapok would be able to make friends with the new county magistrate Cai.During this period of time, she recruited many beauties and wanted to send them to Cai County Magistrate's residence, but this Cai County Magistrate was cold-faced and ruthless, and she was beaten up several times.

She already knew that Kapok made money selling goji berries, but she knew that this goji berry was a longevity medicine that the nobles could afford. If Kapok planted goji berries in large quantities, it would be even more difficult for her to get her.

Today, Mrs. Liu and Zhou Goudan were sent by her. She wanted to make Mu Mian fall into trouble, and then let her help her to appreciate her kindness, but this little girl is really difficult to deal with.

But the harder it is to deal with, the more she wants to get it. Once she holds it, it will be a great opportunity for her.

Mrs. Cai summoned her confidant maid: "Go, call the uncle back, and tell him that I have something to tell him."

The servant girl said: "Ma'am, uncle, because a cargo ship sank on the Grand Canal a few days ago, a batch of cargo was lost, and now he is still in the capital."

Mrs. Cai nodded: "I forgot about it. Then call his subordinate Qian Er."
