Chapter 235 Clan relatives’ decision

The stall owner said, "As soon as they left, the business of the restaurants in the city was not very good, and they didn't need so much meat. But I killed the pig early in the morning and sent it over. I found out that they didn't want it, so I had to set up a stall here to eat a little bit." Sell ​​slowly."

"But our ordinary people's lives are not very good, and few of us are willing to cut a few kilograms of meat to eat. Now that food is expensive, we all save money to buy food."

The stall owner pointed to a group of people gathered not far away and said, "Madam, look over there. That shop is a dental shop. There are people guarding the shop every day these past two days. They all belong to rich families who have run away." The housekeepers are all chasing the Yahang stewards to try to sell their master’s house and shop and Zhuangjun’s land.”

"Those wealthy households are in a hurry to sell their land in exchange for money and go elsewhere, but we ordinary people don't care. Anyway, people just look down on the crooked melons and cracked jujubes at home."

"Besides, in my opinion, this rebel army even takes care of the refugees and will definitely not rob our people's things, so we people don't need to panic at all."

The stall owner said, "On the contrary, I like the new owner of Zhuang County. If it hadn't been for the new owner, I wouldn't have dared to set up a stall here to sell pork. Many people from the yamen would have left in vain."

"That's it." Ke Muqing wasn't surprised when he thought about it.

Yang Erzhu still has no time to deal with these wealthy households who are colluding with the government. Seeing that the government offices have been replaced, these wealthy households are naturally afraid of being settled by Qiu Hou, so of course they run away as soon as possible while they can.

"I want all the pork you have left. Could you please help me deliver it to Sanxi Inn." Ke Muqing paid the deposit. "You can get the rest of the money at the inn from my daughter-in-law."

The stall owner was so happy that his eyebrows were trembling. What a good luck. He thought that the remaining half of the pork was going to be smashed into his hands, but he didn't expect to meet a big customer.

"Starting from tomorrow, you will send two pieces of pork to the inn every day. The pork will be delivered to you in cash." Ke Muqing said, "If there are chickens, ducks, fish or eggs, you can also send them to me. We will There are many people there, no matter how many you have, they are not too many for me.”

After saying that, Ke Muqing went to the dental shop in front to join in the fun.

Ke Muqing was not badly dressed, and given her age, as soon as she passed by, everyone thought she was someone's housekeeper.

When the person in charge of the dental shop saw Ke Muqing, he asked, "Auntie, you are also here under the order of the master's family? Is your family selling a house or a shop? Or is it selling a shop?"

Before Ke Muqing could speak, the person in charge said, "You have also seen that there are so many people here. You have to go back and talk to your master first. If you are in a hurry to sell, you have to be mentally prepared for the price. I'm afraid it will be too high." not tall."

Ke Muqing waved his hand quickly, "I'm not in charge of anyone else's affairs. I'm the head of my own family. I just came here to take a look."

When the person in charge of the dental shop heard this, he realized that he was not here to sell anything. If he could get it here, he must be here to buy something!
"Ouch! My old eyesight is so dim that I saw the wrong old lady." The person in charge of the dental shop hurriedly asked, "Old madam, do you want to buy a house, a shop, or land?"

"I want to buy a house." Ke Muqing estimated the number of children in the group down the mountain and added, "Don't make the house too small. There are many children at home."

As soon as Ke Muqing finished speaking, the stewards who were sitting guarding him quickly gathered around Ke Muqing.

"The old lady wants to buy a house! What a coincidence. Why don't you come over to my house and take a look? My master's house is huge! The house is big and beautiful! You must like it!"

"Old madam, how big is he? The most magnificent house in the city is our Li family! Our master said that as long as someone wants it, we will sell it cheaply!"

Before these two people could finish speaking, they were squeezed away by several other housekeepers, and some even held blueprints in front of Ke Muqing. "Old madam, they are talking nonsense. Look at me. I have brought all the pictures of our master's house. Follow me to the side and take a look!"

The person in charge of the dental shop was so anxious that he said, "Oh! Don't crowd around my distinguished guests! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! If you keep doing this, I'm going to kick people out! Where can I find someone like you who is so unreasonable?" Follow the rules!"

Ke Muqing was so squeezed that he was finally rescued from the center of the storm by the person in charge of the dental clinic.

The person in charge of the dental shop quickly took Ke Muqing to the private room behind to talk.

"It makes the old lady laugh. These housekeepers outside are here on errands, so they are all a little anxious." The person in charge of the tooth shop said, "It is the right time for the old lady to buy a house now. They are all anxious to sell it. As long as I If you are interested, I will negotiate the price for you."

Ke Muqing told the person in charge of the dental shop about his request, but it was getting late today, so the two agreed that Ke Muqing would come back tomorrow. The person in charge of the dental shop selected the houses that met Ke Muqing's requirements and took Ke Muqing to the site tomorrow.

When Ke Muqing returned to the inn, the pork had already been delivered. When the stall owner took the money and went out, he met Ke Muqing at the door and greeted him with a smile.

Some people who had taken a bath had already come here to chat. Ke Muqing walked in without seeing the child, so he asked, "Where are those monkeys? Where did they go?"

"I'm going to the back kitchen to watch Madam Jiye cook." Yang Lizheng responded with a smile.

"Then the kitchen roof will be blown off?" Ke Muqing joked.

This sentence successfully made everyone laugh.

Ke Muqing sat down and took a sip of tea before asking, "Uncle, my aunt is..."

"My mother is old and not in good health. She didn't make it through just after leaving Yan County." Yang Lizheng sighed, "But she didn't endure hardship either. She fell asleep at night. We found her in Liang County Mountain. She was buried in a pretty place with pretty scenery. If there is a chance in the future, she will definitely go back to pick her up and reunite with us.”

"There was another aunt in the clan who went with us that day. She was also older. My mother went with her at the same time. They were buried next to each other. They also had company, so they could have someone to talk to on the way to Huangquan."

Ke Muqing nodded. Today she discovered that there were almost no elderly members of the clan.

This journey is really tiring, and the old man who is not in good health will not be able to bear it at first.

"Uncle, you have arrived in Zhuang County now. If it were before, I would not have asked you if you wanted to stay in Zhuang County. But Zhuang County is very different now, so I want to ask you about your plans."

"Our family is still not sure whether we will continue to go south to Linzhou. What about you, uncle? Do you still want to go south with us? Or stay in Zhuang County?"

The climate in Zhuang County is not bad, with four distinct seasons, no drought, and no waterlogging. The current Queen Mother will naturally find a good place for her brother as a fiefdom.

And Ke Muqing thought that with her here, there was no reason why Yang Erzhu and the others would be defeated.

Therefore, Zhuang County, as the first place Yang Erzhu captured, should be considered Yang Erzhu's home base in the future.
