Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 373 Overkill
The courtyard where the three masters and servants live is not big, but it is indeed a relatively independent and quiet courtyard within a courtyard, which makes her very satisfied.Especially the bedroom she lives in has a light blue tone, simple and elegant, and the materials and workmanship of all items are excellent. It is truly called low-key luxury.

This bedroom also has a small study room. The tables, chairs, and bookshelves that have been prepared in it are all made of rosewood like the furniture in the bedroom.However, although the pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the table were also of high quality, they were rarely prepared. It was obvious that the person who prepared the things was afraid that he would only be there for a short time and would waste them if he did not use them.

Zhiruo nodded secretly, she liked this man's taste and was even more satisfied with his intentions.

The person who takes care of this yard is a fair and honest woman with a warm smile, Aunt Zhong, the daughter-in-law of Uncle Zhong.It is said that Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong have a son and a daughter. The daughter works as an embroiderer in the garment workshop at Nanhai Nichangju headquarters, while the son is only 12 years old and studying in a school specially opened by the Qi family for the children of domestic servants.

Aunt Zhong was very proud when she talked about her son. He had just passed the exam in [-] and had already begun to learn shop management. If he could become the shopkeeper of a shop in the Qi family, he would be much better than their parents.It is a gift from God that official slaves like them can come to the Qi family. They are now proud to be members of the Qi family.

The Qijia Academy is an important link in the talent training system tailored by Zhiruo for Qi Mubai and his huge business group. All children of the Qijia servants, regardless of gender, as long as they are over six years old and under 15 years old, can Entered Qijia School to study.

In the Qijia School, the first two years were the same. Qijia rules, literacy, and arithmetic were the main courses.Starting from the third year, students will be diverted. Those who are not very fond of learning or have talents, and are over [-] years old can go to work as apprentices in shops. The more outstanding ones can choose different specialized courses based on their hobbies and strengths, such as accounting and shop assistants. Management, clothing design, embroidery, and cooking.In addition to these fixed special courses, if you find that you have special interests and strengths in a certain area, you can also report to Uncle Tong through the school steward.

Of course, except for two gentlemen who teach literacy and arithmetic respectively, other special courses are taught by outstanding shopkeepers and managers at the Nanhai headquarters who take turns teaching what they are good at and what they are doing.

Zhiruo Ke doesn’t worry that they don’t have teaching experience and theory. In those “professional courses”, practice is more important than theory. This is how masters lead apprentices in ancient Chinese learning. Qijia’s centralized teaching is already a major innovation that combines ancient and modern times.

In addition, if Na Wenquxing really comes to earth, the Qi family will not mind supporting him to take the imperial examination based on considerations such as his parents and his own temperament and performance.Of course, those who can take this path can also be said to be the best among the slaves of the Qi family. First of all, they cannot be official slaves, because official slaves cannot be released from slavery to participate in the scientific examination; secondly, they must be able to pass the comprehensive examination of the Qi family. The assessment means that not only must one be a prodigy in some sense, but one must also be able to pass the character test.

Looking at the radiant Aunt Zhong, Zhiruo felt a warm sense of accomplishment in her heart. She was glad that she had suddenly thought of formulating such a win-win talent system. Not only the Qi family needed such a training and promotion system, but also the Qi family needed such a training and promotion system. Don’t the entire Qi family members, represented by Uncle Zhong and his son, also need it?Qijia Academy gave them opportunities, hope, and a sense of accomplishment.After all, the Qi family only has one master like Qi Mubai, right?If the Qi family wants to thrive and develop rapidly, it depends on these Qi family members who are "just domestic slaves" in the eyes of outsiders.

After Aunt Zhong was proud of her children, she became reserved. After bringing tea and snacks to Zhiruo and the other three, she left: "Master, please wash up and have a rest first. The hot water in the bathroom is ready. I will prepare dinner now." ." Fortunately, everyone in the shop came back relatively late, so she could prepare dinner for the three young masters first and then cook for everyone.

After Aunt Zhong went out, Zhiruo looked at Luoying: "Besides being unruly, what is Wu Minjun's temperament? What did Luoshuang mean just now? She used to bully her brothers and sisters a lot? Did she bully a concubine?" Most of the legitimate girls from wealthy families are pampered. There are quite a few older women who have unruly temperaments, especially before they leave the government, but this does not affect their good education and character. Many of them have tempered their tempers after getting married.However, if you are overbearing, selfish, and have a bad nature, it will be dangerous. As long as there is enough temptation, there is nothing strange about betraying your parents and relatives.

Luoying shook her head: "I'm really not sure now. In the past many years, I always thought that although she was unruly, she was still very kind. When she insisted on treating Luoshuang, Luoshuang and I came to her I have been with him for less than half a year. However, Miss Wu Si is a gentle, kind and well-educated person. She should not say that about Wu Minjun without any evidence. Master, I am a little confused. Based on my knowledge of Wu Minjun in those years, I I don't dare and don't want to believe that Wu Minjun is so inhumane, but what Uncle Lian said... and Wu Minjun has indeed always liked Wang Monan and always tried to please him, I..."

"What's the but, but?" Luoshuang curled her lips, "Compared with Wu Minjun and the fourth girl, I definitely believe the fourth girl. Besides, if it wasn't like that, he knew full well that he had reported the Wu family at that time, proved that the second master was corrupt, and later One of the people who ransacked the Wu family's ancestral home was the prefect Wang. How could Wu Minjun still be his fifth concubine comfortably? If he couldn't resist, would he die? Didn't you hear Uncle Lian say that even if the incident happened, there would be rumors outside? Yes, she is still living a comfortable life?"

Perhaps it was because Mrs. Wu saved her sisters from the fire pit when she was most desperate when she was young. Luoshuang has always had a special feeling of admiration for Mrs. Wu.However, the kind-hearted Mrs. Wu was killed by her own daughter. How could she not be angry?What's more, because of the trouble in the Wu family, they were slaves and were sold as official slaves. If God hadn't shown mercy and allowed them to be bought by Da Yuanfang and later stayed with their masters, they would probably have fallen into the trap again. That kind of place went.

Luoying couldn't refute her sister's words. However, although she always felt that something was wrong, she couldn't figure it out and could only remain silent.

What she didn't expect was that Zhiruo said to her: "Since you have doubts, it's better to follow your own intuition to verify it. Although you are all sure that Miss Wu is trustworthy, what Miss Wu saw and heard may not be the same." It must be the truth, or it may not be the whole truth. However, you must make absolutely sure that nothing will happen to you before you act, because, as you said yourself, you are now mine, not Wu The maid of the house."

She not only wanted to satisfy Luoying's sincerity towards Mrs. Wu, but also wanted to train Luoying more. Brother Cunren said that these two sisters were very good, especially Luoying, who was a natural spy.In this case, it shouldn't be that difficult for Luoying to find out whether Wu Minjun is innocent and solve the doubts in her heart, right?It's not like she was asked to find out the truth about the whole case.

It's not that she is too conceited, but that Luoying, who is called a secret spy genius by Liang Dashan, has two sharp weapons that other secret forces don't have. One is a hidden weapon that no one else in the world should have, and the other is the medicine made by Zi Su. .The secret spy genius with a pair of wings only went in and out of Liulian Pavilion and the inner courtyard of the prefecture to get some news. If it weren't for Pan Jiaming's people, in Zhiruo's opinion, he would be overqualified.

Luoying's eyes flashed with a different light: "Thank you, master. Don't worry, I know the severity. Luoshuang, when I go out, the master will leave it to you. You can't leave the master's side for a moment." Luoshuang. Zhi nodded: "Don't worry! Sister, if it is really related to Wu Minjun, why don't you kill her directly? It can be regarded as avenging Mrs. Wu for Wu Shen and eliminating harm for the ancestors of the Wu family." This is the only time Zisu did it. The poisons that came out had three or four strange ways to die, and they left no trace. It was just in time to try the effect on Wu Minjun, the troublemaker.

Luoying did not object to Luoshuang this time. If Wu Minjun really colluded with others to murder her parents and relatives, such a scumbag really did not deserve to live in the world and bring shame to the Wu family. She would not mind getting rid of Wu Minjun herself.They are very confident in the medicine made by Zi Su.

Zhiruo was not a kind-hearted person. He smiled and reminded: "Don't underestimate Pan Shizi. He is not the good-for-nothing dude in the rumors, nor is Xiao Feng." The two of them were steamed buns stuffed with black sesame seeds, and they looked at each other. The face is easy to pinch, but the belly is dark.

Luoying nodded: "Yes, I will be cautious and avoid Pan Shizi and his people." The first time she saw Pan Jiaming, she knew that he was definitely not a real dandy. If a dandy is an embroidered pillow, then he is definitely an dandy. Real guys wrapped in embroidered pillowcases, leopards in Persian cat skins.

Only the eldest son of the Pan family and those who only look at appearances and are envious, jealous, and hateful of Pan Jiaming's status would think that he is a playboy who is incompetent in both culture and military affairs. Nothing else, just because that is what they hope in their hearts. Hope Pan Jiaming is as useless as they see.

Therefore, the master often warns them not to have preconceptions about everything, and to view people and things with a preset frame. Otherwise, what you think in your heart will often be what you see, and you will not be able to see the real truth.

So, if she puts aside Miss Wu San in her memory and doesn't think about Miss Wu Fourth, what will be the truth about Wu Minjun?

Not only was Luoying puzzled, but Zhiruo was also curious to know the answer. She didn't know Wu Minjun, but she suddenly thought of herself in the previous life. At that time, many people were scolding her for being willing to become a wife and a concubine; scolding her for not having When she went to her parents' graves to take a look, she didn't care about the lives of her younger brothers and sisters. She only cared about living a "moisturizing" life in the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. Who would have thought that she couldn't live a healthy life despite having such a large dowry that she could never use up in her lifetime? ? …

She associates Wu Minjun with her past life, not that she thinks Wu Minjun is innocent, but feels that even if the truth is that Wu Minjun is related to the letters proving that Wu Shen will collaborate with the enemy and the country, there must be a deeper truth hidden behind the truth.

Not for any reason, just for the most basic human nature.A pampered and pampered fifteen-year-old daughter might harm her brothers and sisters, or she might ignore other clan members, or even her flesh and blood relatives, but it would be impossible for her to murder her parents.Apart from anything else, she doesn't have her husband's family yet. Her parents are at least her only support and support. Even if she wants to get married, her parents must take care of it, and she must have her natal family, right?Moreover, if her parents are gone and the family is gone, can she still be there?
This is different from Yin Hui and Yin Qing, who have already started their own families and started businesses, and have actually separated. They can claim to have severed ties with Yin Zhao without being implicated. Can Wu Minjun?Exile and auction as official slaves were the only two possible outcomes for the female family members of the officials who committed serious crimes.

People come and go in the building. Anyone can enter as long as he has money. No matter how ugly he is, he can be treated as a gentleman. No matter how strange he is, he will not be suspected.That afternoon, a man with dark skin, goldfish eyes and rosacea went to Liulian Pavilion, headed straight for the newly popular greenery, and handed a banknote to the madam like a nouveau riche.

When Lu Yi sent Rosacea downstairs in a daze, Rosacea generously threw another silver ingot to the madam. Her rough voice was very pleasant to the ears of the madam with bright eyes: "I Today is the day for the girl in green, let her have a good rest in the rest of the time, and you must not force her to work out again, otherwise I will ask you to get my money back the next time I come to Changyang."

"No problem, no problem, don't worry, uncle," the old bustard smiled so hard, "Not only do you feel sorry for Lu Yi, but I also feel sorry for my daughters, especially a lovely girl like Lu Yi."

After Rosacea left, the Madam really didn't want anyone to disturb Lu Yi's rest. Seeing Lu Yi's dazed look just now, she knew how ferocious Rosacea was. Lu Yi must have been tortured, and she couldn't really let it go. Lu Yi is very tired, isn’t she?Money needs to be earned over a long period of time.Besides, if Rosacea gives him enough money, he will pick one up, which is no less than the usual few Lu Yi picks up, or even more.

Rosacea left Liulian Pavilion, mounted his horse and went all the way out of the city gate to the western suburbs, where he found Lu'e's grave on a hill.The location of the tomb is very remote and simple. It is just a piece of wood with the words "Ng Clan Min Lin" crookedly engraved on it.As Lu Yi said, Lu E gave her all her savings to Lu Yi before going to Zhenyu Pavilion. She only had one request. It would be best if she could collect her body and bury her. Even if not, she should get her a tomb, and then Her real name must be engraved on the tombstone. She doesn't want to be a green calyx anymore.

Seeing the four words Wu Shi Min Lin, the circles under his rosacea eyes turned red. He bowed silently three times and was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, his sharp eyes spotted the ashes of burned paper in front of the tombstone, and a little further to the side, he found some more.Apparently, someone once paid homage here and burned paper money or something, but they just cleaned it up in an attempt to cover up the traces.

Rosacea looked around in the direction of the wind, and walked towards a pile of low shrubs. Sure enough, in addition to the ash on the branches of the shrubs, there were also a lot of remaining incense heads inside.
