Silly couple dote on their wives

Chapter 275
"Oh? What's going on here?" Meng Ruoqing raised her head, looked at Mrs. Chen, raised her eyebrows calmly, and asked while biting her chopsticks.

"Who knows what's going on?" Mrs. Chen shook her head, and told Meng Ruoqing what she heard from customers when she was selling tofu: "It is said that he offended a master in Taoism, and that person sneaked into Liu Yuanwai's house in the middle of the night and tied him up." Go and kill him. It is also said that the concubine kidnapped Yuanwai Liu in order to embezzle Liu’s family property. In short, there are all kinds of things, which one is true and which one is false. How can we ordinary people know!”

"No matter what, this kind of thing has nothing to do with us. By the way, sister-in-law, I'm going to open a wine shop in the town, can you help me?" Meng Ruoqing didn't hear any valuable news. I don't intend to ask any more questions.

Chen originally wanted to chat with Meng Ruoqing about the robbing of military rations, but when she heard Meng Ruoqing's words, she froze there and opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say: "Here, I, you , I don’t know how to do this, I can’t help you with anything.”

"Didn't I still have to teach you? Look at that time, you can't know spiced tofu, after two days of learning." Meng Ruoqing finally finished her meal, she put down her chopsticks, and said.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Chen felt that this method is feasible, so she nodded: "Success, I will do as you said."

Having settled on this matter, Meng Ruoqing stopped being entangled in this matter, and started talking about other topics. The two of them, for some reason, chatted and chatted, and then they talked about the topic of military rations.

Mrs. Chen looked at Meng Ruoqing mysteriously: "Ruoqing, have you heard? The military rations that were supposed to be sent to Tongguan were snatched by bandits."

"And this?" Meng Ruoqing was a little surprised. She thought that this matter hadn't spread to Taohua Town so quickly. It seemed that the fourth prince was really angry, but she was curious how the fourth prince would deal with it in the end. something.

"That's right, the notice was posted just this morning, saying that we have to notify the government immediately when we see someone suspicious!" Mrs. Chen nodded, "He came from the capital just yesterday morning. This group of people said they would stay in Taohua Town for a long time until they caught those bandits."

Meng Ruoqing's eyes shrank, and the movement of pouring tea also paused for a moment, she put down the teacup in her hand: "Is there any movement at the county government?"

"Not really, and I don't know what our master thinks." Mrs. Chen shook her head. She didn't go to see it with her own eyes, but she heard what people who came to buy tofu said.

"These things are the affairs of the government. We are all ordinary people. We can just do our own things well, and we don't need to be like soldiers." Meng Ruoqing lowered her eyes, and finally decided not to care about these things.

The food, grass and supplies had already been shipped out on the same day, even if they were not sent to Tongguan, they would not be easily found out by the fourth prince, so she had nothing to worry about.

"It's true, as long as we are careful, those bandits can't do anything to us!" Mrs. Chen nodded in agreement, muttered to herself, and went to busy with her own affairs.

Meng Ruoqing touched her nose in embarrassment. If Chen Shi knew that she would be the gangster she said, would she be shocked and then keep her at a respectful distance?
"It's been a long time since I went out for a walk, let's go out for a stroll too." Meng Ruoqing stood up, took the cloak beside her and put it on her body, and then walked out slowly.

It's already February now, but the weather is hot and cold from time to time. Although the sun is good today, it can't help but make people shiver when it hangs down on people.

Mu Jin waited on her carefully. After what happened last time, Mu Jin became more careful, for fear that Meng Ruoqing would be hurt again because of her own negligence.

Meng Ruoqing was a little helpless. At that time, she was recruited entirely because of her pregnancy reaction. Why did she need to be so cautious?

But even so, Meng Ruoqing didn't say much, after all, this was Mu Jin's wish, and she just accepted it.

However, after a few months of not taking a good tour of Peach Blossom Town, Meng Ruoqing discovered that several places had changed owners, and even the old workshops deep in the alleys were now closed several times.

"Sister, can you do me a favor and write me the money." Meng Ruoqing was about to enter the Juxian Building when a little boy ran over from not far away. He blinked his beautiful big eyes and looked at Meng Ruoqing innocently and pitifully. .

"Where do you come from?" Meng Ruoqing frowned subconsciously as she looked at the child's unusually bright eyes. If it wasn't for the fact that this man's clothes were too shabby, she couldn't believe that he was a beggar.

"It's from Huzhou. It's raining heavily over there. We have no home. Sister, please, my sister and I haven't eaten for several days." When he mentioned his hometown, the little boy's eyes were gloomy. down.

Thinking of his younger sister who was also hungry, and a child with courage, he raised his head and looked at Meng Ruoqing, his words were full of pleading.

Huzhou flood?Meng Ruoqing frowned even tighter, why didn't she know about this matter?
"Is there anyone else in the family? Is it just you and your sister?" Meng Ruoqing bent down, holding the little boy's hand and asked.

"My father and mother died to save my sister and me." Upon hearing the news of his relatives at home, the little boy couldn't hold back any longer and began to cry. His small shoulders suffered pain that shouldn't be endured at this age. He forgot I lost my parents, but when others mentioned it, the memory of my parents began to sprout in my heart.

"Don't cry." Meng Ruoqing wiped away the tears from the little boy's face, and told Mu Jin, "Go and buy some buns."

"Yes." Mu Jin wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then quickly ran away. She bought a few big buns from a steamed bun stand not far away, packed them and handed them to the laughing boy: "Hurry up and take them."

"Thank you sister, sister, you are a good person, you will live a long life!" The little boy took the meat bun and ran away quickly.

Meng Ruoqing looked at the child until he disappeared from sight, then turned around and stepped into Juxian Building.

The shopkeeper, Old Qiao, immediately greeted Meng Ruoqing, "Miss Meng, why are you free today? But looking for our young master? He's in the backyard!"

"Uncle Qiao, you should be busy. I'll leave after talking to Zhu Wenyuan." Meng Ruoqing smiled at Old Qiao, and walked to the backyard with ease.

Zhu Wenyuan was doing accounts in the backyard. When he saw Meng Ruoqing coming in, he parted his lips and smiled: "What a rare visitor! Why are you here?"

"I want to tell you something!" Meng Ruoqing sat down beside Zhu Wenyuan and said.
