It should be said that Mei Bei was still a little suspicious of the Du family, but when she saw that the other party actually wanted to hear about Dongfang Tai's failure, Mei Bei suddenly felt that this person could handle it.

However, what happened that day was more serious, so Mei Bei did not tell her what happened on the spot. She only said that if Du Yuan was interested, he could discuss it with her in private for tea.

Meiberry didn't think that everyone present was of the same mind and could allow her to say her shocking words directly.

Anyone who is not blind can see that some of the businessmen present here probably have made too much money and are too rich. For Mei Berry, Yao Fei and the others, their nostrils are turned upward~
After the banquet was over that night, when Meiberry went back and drank some hot vegetable soup before going to bed, she specifically told Yinjiu and the others about this.

“Although this dynasty did not emphasize agriculture and suppress business like the previous dynasty, the policy of suppressing businessmen has not been relaxed.

It's just that the imperial treasury has never been rich in these years of disasters, and sometimes local gentry and wealthy businessmen are needed to help with relief and comfort the victims. It seems a bit unkind to let people contribute money and efforts without receiving any benefits.

In addition, in recent years, most of the imperial court's tax revenue still relies on these merchants, so it always turns a blind eye to the actions of these people. "

"Well, keeping it secret will make them feel that their actions can affect the rise and fall of the court and the rise and fall of the throne."

Mayberry smiled mockingly.

"When a businessman only cares about making profits, but has no recognition of his family and country, no national shame, and only knows how to make profits without a bottom line, they should not exist."

At today's cocktail party, Mei Berry saw the faces of various businessmen.

Some of them are respectful, some are neither humble nor arrogant, and some of them are arrogant.

"I remember the name of the Qin family. He seems to be a big grain merchant from Zhuzhou. His expression is very interesting~"

Meiberry noticed this young man who was sitting there with his nostrils turned upward during the entire banquet.

It seemed that the man also choked with Du Yuan twice in the end.

"Please ask more about the Du family's affairs. I heard Mr. Chu mentioned his family today.

Although they are now as destitute as a lost dog, it seems that they have not collapsed due to their downfall. On the contrary, they are still actively looking for allies and even intending to take revenge. Judging from the gesture, their family has quite a lot of potential. "

Mei Mei drank the vegetable soup, finished her errands, and then sent someone to bring the things Xie Changxu had sent to her.

She planned to continue to find something to do before going to bed.

Such as unboxing.

Xie Changxun still sent a box of items, with letters in a small box alone.

Mei Mei opened it and looked at it. There were not only letters from Xie Changzhu, but also letters from home sent from Yanzhou.

Mayberry was the first to read the letter from home.

What shocked Meiyou the most was that her third aunt actually found her brother who had been drafted into the army and never came back. Meiyou suddenly had a biological uncle!
The letter said that the other party was discharged from the army due to injury some time ago and happened to be moved to Zhuangzi.

Fortunately, it's not a physical disability. It's just that as an archer, the harsh environment over the years and the smoke that accidentally broke his eyes during the battle with the Tatars last autumn have damaged his eyesight.

Now, the other party has become the instructor of the militia team in Zhuangzi, teaching some riding and shooting skills.

It is also a good thing.

Another thing is that Tao Ying brought news about Mei Dahu's family.

Because she was dragged down by Qi Jingyun, Tao Ying was also observed for a while.

However, knowing that the other party was once married to Mei Yang, and was tortured by the old Mei family, and finally destroyed the old Mei family, Wei Meili and Miao were very curious about this former sister-in-law whom they had never met before.

Later, after confirming that Tao Ying had no other bad behavior, Wei Meili and Miao went to contact Tao Ying while they continued to work.

After learning that Mei Yang married her, Mr. Mei and his wife have been living with Mei Yang.

She only said that she had heard Mei Yang mention something about his family members, and it seemed that they had met Mei Dahu's family on the way to escape.

I heard that her uncle Mei Dahu was gone, so Jiang and her son Mei An have been living with her natal family.

At that time, Mei Yang seemed to have asked Mei An to go with them, but according to Tao Ying, Jiang did not agree and even Mei An refused.

For this reason, Old Man Mei became very angry. "The little fat guy actually refused to go back. It's really..."

Mei Bei didn't know the whole story, but she felt vaguely that Mei An, the fat little fat guy who used to bully others, had probably gone through a lot and had grown up.

If conditions didn't allow it, Mei Bei would have to find someone to find out what happened to Mei Dahu.

However, not all the news sent from home is good. Mei You also mentioned that King Wei's army seems to have increased its spying on Yanping Pass recently.

He also said that there was no telling which day Meijiabao would be discovered.

After Meijiapu was exposed, if there was a conflict between Yan Pingguan and the King of Wei, Meijiapu would inevitably be regarded as a soft persimmon and bear the brunt.

"Boy, this Dongfang Tai is really haunted. I can hear him while he's eating, and there's also news in his letters!"

In the end, Mei You actually wanted to go to Langshan. She wanted to capture a group of prisoners and ask the Tatars to send a group of cattle, sheep and war horses.

Use this move to scare other barbarians in the grassland.

Before Mei Mei had time to make any judgment on her sister's behavior, she saw that Mei You finally lamented that when Dacheng stabilized in the future, she would directly apply to have the grassland leveled.

Mei Mei took a breath and silently folded the letter Mei You wrote to herself with a complicated expression.

In the middle, she didn't forget to ask the system if her sister really wanted to sweep across the grassland, and she still had to clock in.

The system didn't give a clear explanation, it just said that we would see when the time comes.

Haha, I’ll see when the time comes.

Meiberry, who said this perfunctorily, had no choice but to open Xie Changxu's letter and let her own bad mood be comforted by Xie Changxu's heart.

Sure enough, after reading Xie Changxun's letter, the corners of Mei Berry's originally downturned mouth slowly turned up again.

Because there are people close to Xie Changshu around her, sometimes people around her will tell her about some serious things that Xie Changshu has done, so when Xie Changshu writes personal letters to Mei Mei, she rarely talks about very serious matters.

These are some interesting things that Xie Changxuan observed while he was busy.

You probably know that Meiberry is a beauty-conscious person. Xie Changzhen’s gift to Meiberry also included a lot of exquisite jewelry. The gems inlaid on it were very extraordinary at first glance.

And at the bottom of those objects, there was a tonic brought by Mr. Xue, who had always been thinking about Mei Berry's body.

Mr. Xue also uniquely stuffed the letter he wrote to Mei Berry under the medicinal materials.

It was as if he was afraid of being seen by Xie Changxun.

Mei Bei finally took out the letter Mr. Xue gave her and read it.

Good guy, Mr. Xue said in the letter that the medicines given to her were all old medicinal materials from Xueyun Mountain in Hanzhou, and some of them were not even available to Xie Changshen.

Let her not tell others that she must not let him down and take medicine well.

But how could she not tell others about being favored by someone like this and not make a fuss about it a little bit?

Ever since, these tonics Meiberry were given to Tian Qi as required, and when Tian Qi was asked to make them according to Mr. Xue's recipe, Tian Qi heard what Meiberry said.

But when Tian Qi finished listening and turned to look at the proud expression on Mei Bei's face, Tian Qi's mind vaguely recalled what his adoptive father said to Gu Beiwang and Xie Changxun last year when they gave them medicine. :

"This is my exclusive secret recipe. For your sake, I have specially added the medicine in it for you, but Gu Beiwang (His Royal Highness) doesn't have it! Give it to me quickly. Don't let me live up to my painstaking efforts!"

Tian Qi, who was involved in cooking the medicine from beginning to end, wanted to say, apart from the different proportions of individual medicinal materials, is there anything that others don't have? !
His adoptive father is deceiving people again!
Mr. Xue, there are two ways to coax people to take medicine:
[-]. Hard tactics of scolding and beating.

[-]. The soft trick of lying to everyone "You are the most special, don't let me down".
