Lan Zhen smiled, "Mother, I heard it. How about you help me find out where there is a suitable courtyard in the town, which is closer to our house and the academy. If there is, I will wait for Fugui to come back." Tell him about moving!"

"Go, go, what house do you want, go to the brokerage, don't expect me to help you, if you don't have any money, ask Ayi to go!"

"How can I ask A Yi to ask for it? If Mother has it, Mother will give it to me!"

"owe you!"

The house in the town is not expensive, at least not in Lan Mu's eyes.

Compared with the capital's every inch of land and every inch of gold, it's really nothing.

Lan's mother pointed casually and asked Lan Zhen to get the banknote by herself.

Lan Zhen took the silver ticket and went out.

Even if she goes out alone, Mother Lan can rest assured that Lan Zhen's martial arts are not weak, on the contrary they are very good.

It is said that knowing a child is better than a mother, Lan Zhen's thoughts, Lan's mother knows, why didn't she think about it in the early years, if it can be done, the main concubine dare not think about it, but with her affection for the grandma Xun Muyang, the side concubine can always fishing.

Although the side concubine is not as good as the main concubine, she is also a royal jade butterfly. Once Xun Muyang's affairs are accomplished, not to mention the empress, imperial concubine, noble concubine, the four concubines will be indispensable.

But Xun Muyang never looked directly at Lan Zhen, as long as he showed a little thought, it would be done.

Poor Lan Zhen, a sincere heart, but Xun Muyang turned a blind eye. In the end, in order to dispel Xun Muyang's suspicion, he married a farmer casually. Not to mention Lan Zhen was unwilling, even a mother like her was also unwilling.

Fortunately, although Zhu Fugui was born in a farming family, he really had nothing to say to Lan Zhen. For many years, Lan Zhen's life in Zhu's family was smooth, and she could do whatever she wanted, and no one dared to say a word.

Compared with the intrigue around Xun Muyang, Lan's mother gradually let go of her past thoughts, hoping that Lan Zhen can live a good life now.

Thinking of this, Mother Lan got up and went to see her grandson and granddaughter.

Lan Zhen left the Lan Mansion, went to the Broker's House first, then followed the manager of the Broker's House to look at the courtyard, looked at several times in a row, and then bought something and returned to Lan Mansion.

The itinerary looks fine.

At least Lan Yi sent someone to follow her, and when they came back to report, Lan Yi didn't see anything.

"Why did she come to the town?" Lan Yi couldn't figure it out.

But Lan Zhen didn't do anything, so Lan Yi didn't care about it, and turned around to calculate the profit made from the sparrow dish.

I really don’t know, but I’m shocked. I don’t know what Ayang will think when he sees this amount. After all, the income in the second half of last year is twice or three times higher than the previous year’s income.

"Huh, I really don't know. I'm looking forward to what good dishes that little girl can prepare this year!"

On the way to Yuelin County.

In Tianyu, there is no saying that the people follow the civilian way and the officials follow the official way, but there are also avenues and small avenues. The avenues are open and flat, and there are many people walking.

There are also many roadside stalls, teahouses, wine and food, as long as you have money, you really have everything you need.

Zhu Erlang used to take the trails, which are not so easy to walk near the county town, and there are not so many tricks on the roadside.

Sitting in the driver's seat at this moment, I am really dazzled by seeing it, and I feel like my eyes are wide open.

There are also women and girls on the road, walking or riding in ox carts, each has its own destination and its own way back, and no one will say hello to anyone unless they know each other.

Zhu Mantang was also very surprised, talking with Zhu Erlang in a low voice.

"Next time, I'll bring my wife to see it too!"

Zhu Erlang laughed.

I also thought in my heart that if I have the opportunity to take my three children to see, this road is really prosperous.

At least in his eyes, it is like this.

The three casually ate a bowl of shredded pork noodles on the side of the road, ordered three meat buns, and continued on their way after eating.

When we arrived at the county seat, it was still dark.

Arrived at Jiguxuan according to the address given by Shi Yi, and found the shopkeeper.

Give the letter and the burden to the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Fang looked at the three of them, all of them were honest people, "Come with me!"

He took the three of them into the inner courtyard.

Jiguxuan is located in Yuelin County, which is also the best antique store. It not only sells antiques, but also buys jewelry. The shop is large and the backyard is even bigger.

When we got to the backyard, the shopkeeper asked, "Are you going to stay in the county town at night, or go back overnight?"

"Let's not live anymore, we will go back overnight!" Zhu Fugui said.

He missed his family, and if he could leave, he would definitely not want to live.

The same goes for Zhu Mantang, he knows that Mu's complexion is not very good recently, maybe he is pregnant, and he is also worried about it.

Zhu Erlang is not.

When he came out in the morning, he was always flustered, feeling that something was going to happen, and he wanted to go back anxiously.

The shopkeeper Fang watched, "Then you have something to eat, and I will personally send you out of the city!"

"Okay, thank you, Shopkeeper Fang!" Zhu Fugui said hastily.

The three of them had dinner and left Yuelin County before it was dark.

But they didn't want to, since they entered the city, they were seen by others, and they arranged for backup.

Those who go back don't have to be as careful as when they came here, for fear of breaking things in the luggage.

Zhu Fugui drove the carriage very fast, hoping to catch up more before dark.

The three returned home like an arrow.

Zhu Mantang didn't have the heart to talk to Zhu Erlang, his heart was full of his daughter-in-law, and so was Zhu Erlang, who missed the child.

"drive!"

Zhu Fugui was driving the carriage, flicking his whip from time to time to urge the horse to run faster.

There is a mountain depression between Yuelin County and Feihe Town. It is said that there are bandits in this mountain depression. Zhu Fugui doesn't know if there are really any bandits, but when passing by this area, he still slows down the carriage and walks quietly.

But sometimes, I'm really afraid of something.

When the carriage was stopped, Zhu Fugui broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing the dozen or so people holding torches in front, he quickly got out of the carriage, cupped his fists and said, "Good fellows, I want to go home in a hurry. offer!"

To say that ordinary bandits are all for money rather than life.

If people say so, most of them are making an exception, and it's good to get money, so there's no need for human life.

But these bandits got orders from their superiors to wait for the three of them, and when their identities are known, they will all be killed.

The leader glanced at Zhu Fugui, raised his eyebrows and looked towards the carriage.

Zhu Erlang and Zhu Mantang got off the carriage immediately.

Quickly took out all the money on his body.

Zhu Erlang had more than 20 taels of silver on him, while Zhu Mantang only had a few hundred wen. He had Zhu Fugui to take care of food when he went out, and he didn't need to bring extra money.

Put them all in Zhu Erlang's hands, and huddled beside the carriage, not daring to move.

After all, Zhu Erlang worked under Hei San, and he used to be a coward, but after being tortured by Hei San for a few months, he gained courage. In Erlang's hands.

Zhu Erlang continued to move forward, Zhu Fugui pulled him, "Brother Erlang!"

"I come!"

Of the three, he was the oldest, and Zhu Fugui and Zhu Mantang were already trembling with fright, and he was the only one who could not provoke trouble.

Holding the money, he took a few steps forward, calmed down his emotions, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, our money is here, and please raise your hands so that the three of us can go home. You are so kind and virtuous, we The three brothers will definitely not talk nonsense outside!"
