Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 666 Shen Ba
Fourth Master Shen also had a group of talented people under him, some were sent by Master Shen to help him, and some were selected by Fourth Master Shen at the beginning and evaluated with Guan Wen before using them.No matter which one it is, they are considered to be acquainted with Guan Wen. After all, Guan Wen and Fourth Master Shen have known each other for a long time, and they basically know the capable subordinates on both sides.

So even if there are so many industries, Fourth Master Shen entrusts Guan Wen to take care of them. Except that Guan Wen was a little confused when he first took over, he also has a clear understanding of the operation of these industries after half a month.

The shop Zhuangzi didn't say anything, it was either given by Mr. Shen to Fourth Master Shen, or it was set up by Fourth Master Shen himself. The members of the Shen family didn't dare to say anything, but the thirty-pronged land was a little offended by Guan Wen. trouble.

Almost all the members of the Shen family depended on Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen to make money to support them. Seeing Fourth Master Shen go away, but a large amount of property did not fall into the hands of the Shen family, those idlers were moved and came to look for him. In the two rounds, it was said that Guan Wen intended to invade the Shen family's property.

Thirty Qingdi is not a small amount, and it should be envied.But Fourth Lord Shen entrusted Guan Wen to take care of the land, and it was not given to Guan Wen. It was said that Guan Wen invaded the Shen family's land. According to Guan Wen's temperament, of course he couldn't just accept it like this.Otherwise, if it gets out, where will Guan Wen's face be put?What about reputation?
So when Shen Ba took the lead to find fault with the door, Guan Wenyang said: "Since you think I invaded your Shen family's land, you go to the yamen and sue me for the crime of occupation! I have a document signed by Shen Siye and me. He entrusted me to take care of the thirty-odd land for him. It was clearly written in black and white. If you want to find trouble, you must give me a dignified reason! Otherwise, if you don’t sue me for embezzlement, I will sue you. You are accused of breaking into a private house and gathering a crowd to make trouble!"

Shen Ba was wilted, and returned to Shen's house angrily.

This matter has been passed on by word of mouth from the public, and right and wrong are right and wrong.

Li Xin has always had some impression of Shen Ba.In the in-laws that I told Axiu at the beginning, Ma Juncai, the most handsome man in the town, had some unclear relationship with Shen Ba.Her mother was still whispering to her at that time, saying that she had seen Shen Ba and Ma Juncai sneaking together, and told her bluntly that Ma Juncai was a rabbit.

This has to be placed in a big family, and there are differences in severity.It's easy, it's just a little "fun" of your son, as long as you don't delay your marriage and childbirth, or your daily work, for this little interest, the parents of the big family will turn a blind eye.If it was serious, it would be a family scandal.

Li Xin expected that Mrs. Shen knew about Shen Ba's affairs, and she didn't know what happened to the "personal relationship" between Shen Ba and Ma Juncai after these two years.

Curious, Li Xin asked Guan Wen about Shen Ba's condition.After all, Li Xin never came forward to make troubles caused by Shen Ba, Guan Wen came out to settle them.

"He..." Guan Wen thought for a while, then snorted, "It's just a soft-legged shrimp. It's the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears to insist."

Li Xin asked further: "I heard that the eighth young master of the Shen family likes to put on makeup and powder on weekdays... a bit sissy."

Guan Wen said with a smile: "There is a little bit of behavior, even if you make trouble in front of my door, you still make noises with a high-pitched voice, which makes people laugh."

"Is he married?"

"Not quite sure."

Guan Wenshun answered, feeling strange, and asked Li Xin, "Why do you ask him these things?"

"Nothing, just heard the gossip, curious to ask."

Guan Wen laughed: "Does it mean that he likes gossip about men and dislikes women?"

Li Xin asked in surprise, "You know that too?"

"Of course I've heard all these things, except when we're having social gatherings. This was only told to me when someone was drunk." Guan Wen smiled and said in a low voice, "The Shen family has strictly sealed the news. Anyone who knows Don’t dare to say it, where did you hear about this secret?”

Li Xin frowned: "This can be considered a secret..."

"Of course." Guan Wen said solemnly: "The Shen family has two officials who are officials in the court. The family reputation is very important, and it is related to their promotion assessment. This is a matter of tarnishing their reputation. The officials know , take a look at the book, and you will have to block the way for those two masters."

Guan Wen was talking about Mrs. Shen's first two sons.

Li Xin nodded and exhaled: "Then you don't care about him when he bullies you like this?"

Guan Wen laughed and said, "I don't have so much free time to argue with him. Don't worry, someone will take care of him."

Sure enough, within two days, news spread that Shen Ba was grounded.It is said that Mrs. Shen was very angry, accused Shen Ba of making trouble out of nothing, tarnishing the reputation of the Shen family, and punished him with a one-year confinement, not allowed to leave the Shen residence.

Li Xin was not surprised when the foot ban was issued, but unexpectedly, the foot ban was issued for a whole year.

There is something about killing a chicken to show a monkey.

So far, no one dared to take Guan Wen's idea.The two heads of the Shen family didn't come to the door to say that it was unreasonable for Guan Wen to take care of the family's property for Fourth Master Shen, and the other soldiers and crab generals had passed through Shen Ba's affairs, so how dare they come to find Guan Wen's bad luck.

What's more, during the autumn harvest, Guan Wen handed over the proportion of the business income to Shen's family, as well as Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen according to the signed document.

Master Shen was naturally pleased with Fourth Master Shen's filial piety, he was in a good mood, and kept Guan Wen for a light meal.

Mrs. Shen seemed a little surprised, but after all, she was a person who had experienced many major events, so she quickly calmed down and treated Guan Wen politely, and asked a few questions about Li Xin's mother and daughter.

After all, another summer has passed in the blink of an eye.

Yoyo already knows how to call people simply, and when she softly calls "Dad" and "Mother", Li Xin's heart is sweetened.At the same time, Mu Chun's body is getting better gradually, although she still looks clumsier than Yoyo, but now this has made Aunt Cui feel satisfied.

Aunt Cui stayed quietly in her room, and she was much less domineering in the past.She also has self-knowledge, knowing that Guan Wen and Li Xin don't want to see her as a "sister-in-law", but they don't miss her in food and clothing.She is also someone who has lived a good life before, knowing that if she has no support, her life will not be good, and she will even be made things difficult and bullied by her servants.But she has lived here for several months, and no servant has ever shown her face to bully her.Every once in a while, the young girl next to Li Xin would come here to take a look, sit and tease Muchun.

She knew that most of this was ordered by her sister-in-law.

In this way, she became even more grateful to Li Xin.

Of course, Aunt Cui didn't know that Li Xin's extra care for her was just to repay the two taels of silver she gave Li Xin at the beginning.

Feng Shui took turns, Aunt Cui did something good unintentionally.She doesn't pose any threat to Li Xin now, and Li Xin doesn't mind helping her within his ability.

I'm afraid Aunt Cui never thought that she once knew Li Xin.

Of course, Li Xin never intended to expose Aunt Cui's identity.

Just keep it a secret.

With the help of Shen Siye's property, Guan Wen has gained another income, which is also of great benefit to his own business.In summer, he aimed at the lychee groves in Hui County, bought them at a low price, and sold them at a low price in the town. When there were merchants from other places, he kept them fresh with ice and sold them at a high price, making a fortune.The remaining lychee Guanwen was handed over to Zhao Changsheng.

Speaking of this matter, Li Xin had to admire Guan Wen's vicious vision.Zhao Changsheng is really a good seed for wine making.

Although he is clumsy in speech, he is very practical in his work. When he was studying with the master brewer, he was quite motivated to study the basic skills. After mastering the basic brewing process, he turned his attention to brewing new varieties. on the wine.

In the past, the owner of the distillery naturally wouldn't let him, a freshly graduated wine-making apprentice, ruin things and let him experiment with new varieties of wine.But Guan Wen is different.

Guan Wen is Zhao Changsheng's cousin, and he appreciates his talent. Zhao Changsheng has a sincere heart, and directly tells Guan Wen what he thinks, and asks Guan Wentong if he agrees.Guan Wen also made a decision immediately, promising him to concentrate on researching the recipe and process of making new varieties of wine, and he would provide a series of things Zhao Changsheng needed, such as venue, personnel, funds, and raw materials.

The wine shop was divided into two pieces.One is made up of master craftsmen brought by Zhao Changsheng to continue brewing traditional wine; the other is led by Zhao Changsheng with some young apprentices to study the brewing of new wine varieties.

Before Guan Wen bought lychee, he once discussed with Zhao Changsheng whether Zhao Changsheng could use lychee to make sweet wine.Zhao Changsheng has taken a big step on the road of brewing fruit wine. Guan Wen thought, lychees are also a kind of fruit, so they can naturally be used as raw materials in the wine making process.

Zhao Changsheng nodded, and Guan Wen boldly purchased the litchi.Even if it can't be sold for a good price in the end, it's good to bring it back to Zhao Changsheng for research.

One morning in autumn, Li Xin suddenly started to vomit again after waking up.

Guan Wenwen was about to go out, but when he saw Li Xin like this, he immediately turned back.Instruct Cao Guanshi to send someone to invite the doctor.

Mama Cao has experience. Seeing that Qingya and Guozi both looked worried, she laughed in a low voice and said, "Seeing Madam like this, I'm afraid I'm happy. The second girl is more than one year old now, so I should give it to the second girl." brother."

Qingya and Guozi glanced at each other, both of them were filled with joy.

After arriving in the town with Li Xin, Qingya and Guozi also grew up rapidly.Qingya has become the number one maid beside Li Xin.Following Li Xin and meeting many wives and wives in the mansion, Qingya began to worry about Li Xin, for fear that Li Xin would not have a son, and Guan Wen would see a younger and more beautiful one in the future and abandon Li Xin.

Even if there is a "eldest son" called by the whole family, that eldest son's surname is not "Guan".

If the lady is really pregnant, that would be great!

Guanshi Cao quickly invited a doctor to come, because of Axiu's relationship, if anyone in the family had any headaches, they would invite the doctor from An Hetang.

This time, it happened that Li Xin was pregnant with Youyou, the husband Da Da who diagnosed her with a happy pulse.

Mrs. Da Da still had a round face, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha.After taking his pulse, Da Dafu cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mrs. Guan, Mrs. Guan, this is a happy pulse. Now, the Guan family is blessed with three blessings!"
