Crossing the road to riches

Chapter 91
When the elder sister sent a letter from the border and came back, Wen Hao couldn't restrain his emotions.

The army had food and won a big victory. The Rong people who were fighting retreated three hundred miles. The eldest sister made great military achievements and said that if it goes well, she will be canonized as a general after the end.

But she didn't want to stay in the imperial capital or the border, and when she returned to the court, she would talk to the general and tell him to transfer him to the Xizhaofu district, so that he would be closer to his family.

If the Rong people come to attack her again, she will still be obliged to go to the battlefield.

The whole family wept with joy when they read the letter, even more excited than the last letter.

Mrs. Zhao: "That's great, that's great. Finally, we don't have to fight anymore, but our people have been tortured to death, and your eldest sister can come back safely. It's great."

Aman red-eyed, he also misses his wife, she has been away for a long time, it's good not to fight, he is from the Rong people but the people of the Rong people don't want to fight, but what can the superiors do to fight them.

Fufu is also happy, although he will still be a little embarrassed when facing the eldest sister, but the country can stop fighting, there is nothing happier than this.

"Wife owner, that's great. Will there be no more tax increases in the future, and I won't come to pick up the big guns again."

He was afraid that if the fight continued, if the court came to pick up soldiers again, it would be the wife's turn next, and he didn't want the wife to go.

Wen Hao was also touched.

Her family didn't feel much of the negative impact of the war on the people, but the people at the bottom who made a living by farming suffered a lot.

It's good to have peace, and Baixin lives and works in peace and contentment.

The second batch of potatoes she supplied to the army has also begun to grow, and she is expanding her territory one after another. In two years, she will not only be able to supply the army but also lower the price of food.

Hope it ends soon.

Time flies quickly, and half a year is just a blink of an eye.

The middle-aged Qiaoqiao in Hu County's backyard has completely changed.

In the past six months, Qiaoqiao has never stepped out of the house, and the daily diet has made her whole body swollen, her waist fat and her face round, and she has become what she hates the most.

Bo Xue and Nian Qiaoqiao had always been at odds, and he was on Zhu's side. In previous years, Qiaoqiao had placed a big copper mirror in her room, which could be described as murderous.

At this time, Nian Qiaoqiao was lying on the bed with dull eyes, who knows what he has experienced in the past six months.

Hu County never went to see it.

This summer night is still quiet, but the backyard of Hu County is busy, Zhu's did not neglect at all, everything that should be prepared is available.

After tossing and tossing until dawn, there was no movement, presumably someone died.

But after a while, there was a whole body crying.

Then came the Annunciation, a girl.

When Hu County broke his belly to take a son, Zhu was terrified when he found out, and even the hairs on Boxue's body stood on end.

Nian Qiaoqiao was buried hastily without anyone knowing.

Hu County raised the child under Zhu's name, which can be regarded as making up for his guilt towards Zhu.

Mrs. Zhu didn't refuse, so she raised her as long as she could, and it would be nice to have someone to take care of her in the future.

It's just that after having Bo Xue, Hu County seldom came to Zhu Shi's place, but Zhu Shi felt quite clean, and now he didn't want to see Hu Ergou for a moment, and felt his eyes were dirty.

But Bo Xue often comes.

"My lord, Madam asked you to name this child, what would you choose?".

Mrs. Zhu didn't care much about the child's name, so she thought about it casually while drinking tea.

"Let's call him Hu Zheng. If you have a father like that, just don't go astray in the future."

Bo Xue teased the child without talking to Mrs. Zhu.

He regards the Zhu family as his master, and Hu County as his master, and he is just here to make a living.

It won't be long before he will go to other places to seek a living with him, but it doesn't make much difference to him, he is just duckweed.

Three months later, a new county magistrate came in, and Hu County was in charge of handing over matters. She was really reluctant to leave suddenly after having been appointed here for so many years.

Before leaving, he took the newly appointed county magistrate and Wen Hao to have a meal. Naturally, the newly appointed county magistrate would not be so stupid as to offend Wen Hao, and even had a hint of flattery.

"Mrs. Wen, you can be regarded as one of Hu's few friends here. I really don't want to leave now. I will write to you when I get to the new place. Don't cut off contact."

Wen Hao took a sip of the glass of wine, accepting the kindness.

"That's natural. I wish Hu County a smooth promotion and a smooth journey."

The next year Wen Hao moved into the Fu district, and because of his relationship with Cheng District, he directly lived in the alley behind the Fu Ya.

This time they brought Mrs. Zhao and Wen Fugui, but Mrs. Zhao and Wen Fugui couldn't let go of the business in the town now.

Being made lively by Mrs. Zhao, she finally adapted to the life in the town and was uncomfortable living in the prefecture. After a month, she quietly packed her luggage by herself and rented a carriage to go back.

Both Wen Hao and Fu Fu couldn't laugh or cry, and even Wen Hao's grandma didn't want to come.

"Good baby, grandma knows you are a filial person, but grandma has been used to being with the fields all her life, and she can't do without them. Now I just look at these fields to feel at ease. Don't worry, I have the cauliflower lady with me, and there are others to take care of me. I, I am very happy, if you really bring me here, I can't bear it."

Wen Hao didn't force it, since he didn't want to, let it go, but he often wrote back.

Wen Hao doesn't want to work alone to death, he has cultivated many capable go-getters, and has a reserve talent pool. If there is nothing to do, he will go back every two months to see his parents and grandma.

Jinmei would like to come to such a prosperous place, and Zhongzi Embroidery Workshop now has a branch size, and he still wants to make it bigger.

At the same time, I tried again in the direction of rouge and gouache, and Wen Hao gave me a lot of suggestions in this regard.

It is also selling hot.

The houses in the prefectural district are also two-entry. In the main courtyard there is a big tree with two swings hanging, as well as pavilions, fish ponds, and vegetable gardens. It continues the style of the county town, but it is more refined.

Baozi and Dashan also followed.

Wen Mao tuned to his side.

Wen Mao has been getting a little tricky with Dashan recently, and from time to time brings food back to Dashan from outside.

This is not here again today.

In front of Fufu, Dashan called out. Dashan knew that it was his God of Cookery calling him, swallowed, looked at Fufu, and waited for Fufu's permission.

Now that Fufu has been here, how can he not know what's going on.

"Go to Dashan, stay with Wen Maomei for a while, I don't need you as a door god for now."

Baozi muttered to the side.

"It's Wen Mao, the steward, who brought you food again? You have to pay back everything you eat. You just pay her back yourself."

Baozi smirked a few times: "Hey hey, she is really a good person."

Immediately afterwards, he stood beside the lord and chatted.

"My lord, do you think this means that stupid people have stupid blessings? How can someone so powerful in managing things like Wen Mao fall in love with Dashan, a fool who can't figure out anything except to eat. You said what to do if you are bullied in the future."

While talking here, someone is poking around outside the house again.

It's Han Fengnuo.

Fufu dialed the aromatherapy and said.

"Yeah~ Isn't it true that stupid people have stupid blessings? What if our Baozi is bullied in the future?"

Da Shan blushed and said coquettishly.

"My lord, what are you talking about, I won't be bullied, Sister Han is very reliable."

Before Fufu let go and married the two of them off, he turned his elbows away. I'm afraid he really couldn't keep them.

"I still want to stay for two more years to serve you by my side, now everyone will be settled."

When Baozi heard this, he was unhappy, even if he got married in the future, he would follow the lord by his side, and he would not go anywhere.

"If the master fails, don't think about not wanting me and Dashan. Even if we get married in the future, we will follow you. You can take the two of us as hostages. If they are unfaithful, you can threaten her two with us."

This really moved Fufu deeply.

Afterwards, he also let the steamed stuffed bun go out to drink, and Han Fengnuo went to be alone.

Wen Mao came over with a big bag of snacks.

"Dashan, try these. This is a newly opened dim sum shop. I took some of each. You can try which one you like best. I will bring it to you when I have time."

Dashan didn't know how to be polite, so he wiped his hand on his clothes and reached out to take it, but Wen Mao took two steps back in a tricky manner.

"You ate so much of me for nothing, you have to give me something, otherwise I'm at a disadvantage."

Dashan's stomach growled a few times smelling the fragrance, and he was greedy looking at the things in Wen Mao's arms.

"Good man, what do you want? I can give you whatever I have."

Dashan didn't remember Wen Mao's name very much so far, so he simply called her a good person.

In the eyes of Wen Mao, such a stupid appearance is cute and silly.

"I want you, how about you marry me?".

Dashan was stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer, but he also wanted the pastry in Wen Mao's hand, and he was the master's man, and he couldn't be the master.

"You can ask the lord, if the lord says you can marry, you can marry."

Doesn't this mean that he succeeded?

Han Fengnuo's side is not so easy to fool around.

Going shopping with Baozi, Baozi hugged his arms on his chest, counting soldiers.

"I want this, this, this, that, and that".

Han Fengnuo couldn't hold it anymore.

"Baozi, did you use so many things? I almost couldn't hold it all. I didn't bring much money out, so save some money."

Baozi stopped and looked back at Han Fengnuo.

"What's the matter? You feel sorry for me for spending such a small amount of money? Don't worry, I won't take advantage of it. I will give you the money and labor expenses when I go to Wenfu later."

Han Fengnuo was dumb, didn't she just say a word.

"No, that's not what I meant. I really don't need so much. It's a waste of money to buy...".

Baozi is quite capricious, he has to try it out, it's no good not giving money to a woman.

"I do".

But Maple Leaf Hall is famous in the prefectural district.

From the original more than 30 people to more than 100 people today.

Lin Wanfeng bought the land directly, spending almost all of his money.

But the old woman's willingness to sell was enough to make her happy.

Originally, the old woman wanted to move out, but Wan Feng stayed behind, and set up a small yard for her and her two granddaughters.

The old woman didn't live in vain, she wandered around with a broom every day, she was very self-conscious when it was time to eat, she went to cook with a bowl, and wandered around the outside of the school at night.

Now Wan Feng can't take care of more than 100 students alone, and also hired teachers, all of them are men.

Fufu and Wen Jinmei didn't expect them to be among them.

"Wan Feng, are you kidding? What can I teach? I'm a half-baked guy, and I can only understand the words written by me."

Wen Jinmei didn't dare either.

"Yeah, let alone, even though I can recognize all the characters, I may not be able to write them all. I am not misleading my son."

Wan Feng remained calm and calm as always, as if everything was under her control.

"Everyone has their own strengths. You can't just see your own shortcomings. Just like the second brother's ability to taste embroidery, there are few men who can match it. Embroidery is also superb. It is more than enough to teach them."

Take the written course schedule to Jinmei and hand it to Fufu. It has already been arranged, and there is no need to run.

"Fufu, you are good at cooking, and it is enough to teach them a little bit."

Anyway, none of the two ran away.

Fufu and Jinmei are just one of them. Wan Feng also invited someone to teach skills, settle accounts, and even a housekeeper...etc.

Men's teaching is different from women's teaching. They come here to find a satisfactory family in the future, so naturally they have to teach according to their aptitude.

After Lin Wanfeng learned that Wen Hao had come, the familiar throbbing that was so hard to suppress followed.

He also went to Wen's mansion to have a meal with Fufu and Jinmei, and Wen Hao was also there, but he can hide it better now.

Even Cheng Rou thought that the original guess was just his illusion.

After just one time, he seldom stepped into the gate of Wen's mansion, don't think about things that shouldn't be his.

This time Wen Rong is also here. This year Wen Rong is a dark horse in the official examination. Even Wen Hao did not expect that the scum in the past would one day overcome all obstacles and get the No.1 in the district examination. .

Three months later, I will go to the Tianzi Palace for an interview. If I do well in the exam, I may directly accept my fate as a court official.

Even if they do not do well in the exam, they will be appointed as magistrates in various places.

Wen Hao once asked.

"Wen Rong, didn't you cheat? You know every question?".

At that time, Wen Rong knew that she was quite proud of her grades, but she didn't expect that she was so lucky.

"The ones that come out happen to be the ones that I know, and the ones that I don't know are all right. Tell me it's a coincidence."

Wen Hao is really envious, Wen Rong's fortune has always been extremely good, in Wen's village, the wife's liver hurts all day long, unexpectedly she was really accepted by her.

The master didn't expect that such a student would be born under her own hands, and she had persuaded her many times not to go to the Palace of the Son of Heaven, because she was afraid that her remarks would be pulled out and beheaded.

Wen Rong can be regarded as respecting teachers.

"Master, don't worry, if I am going to be beheaded, I will definitely not tell others that I am your student. You taught me these things."

Wen Hao recently opened a new Wen's Juewei store in a selected location, and also bought a store selling yams.

Food has never been worried about lack of marketability. Poor people regard yams as a staple food, and rich people turn them into snacks.

Spike potatoes and French fries are extremely popular. Because Wenhao potatoes are of good quality and the price is favorable, many people buy them directly from Wenhao. Although there are some minor problems, they are all harmless.
