A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and the weather in midsummer was getting hotter and hotter. Yun Changsheng almost stayed at home without going out.

Xu Changfeng is very busy these days, and he will only come back when eating, as if commuting according to the time every day, and come back to eat with him when the time comes.

"Si Zhu, let's see if dinner is ready?" Yun Chang lazily leaned on the low couch by the window, looked up to see that the sunset outside was almost in the sky, and guessed that Xu Changfeng would be back soon.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Changfeng came back with an oiled paper bag in his hand, handed it to Si Zhu and said, "Buy a roast duck and come back to add vegetables."

When Yun Changsheng heard Xu Changfeng's words, he smiled slightly and squinted his eyes to enjoy the brief coolness brought by the evening breeze, and said through the window: "I'm back."

"Yeah." Xu Changfeng came in through the door, bypassed the window and sat on the low couch, watching his relaxed and relaxed appearance.

Yun Changsheng likes to eat, but he usually lives a simple life. He is used to the simple life in the mountains, and he also knows that many people in this era are living a precarious life in poverty.

And because he took care of his body when he was a child, his grandfather accompanied him to clear porridge and side dishes, so he never spent extravagantly, only occasionally stealing his mouth to satisfy his craving.

"Huh?" Yun Changsheng half-closed his eyes, and Xu Changfeng didn't say a word after waiting for a long time, he could only hear his inaudible breathing at a close distance.

"What's the matter?" Yun Changsheng opened his eyes, not at all confused, "I haven't settled with Uncle He and the others?"

"It's settled." Xu Changfeng said: "There are three levels of benefits. I am ashamed of holding it, but Uncle He and the others insist."

He was a little helpless, this was not giving money to him in a blatant manner, and trying to help turned into taking advantage of it.

"Oh." Yun Changsheng understood that this was something he had discussed with them, and naturally he would not compromise because of Xu Changfeng's objection.

"You can help Uncle He and the others more." Yun Changsheng sat up and said, "Didn't you send someone to contact the retired soldiers, you can send them to the northern grasslands."

"Let them buy the cattle and sheep, and then transport them to Uncle He's people after passing the checkpoint. This will save them a lot of trouble, and you can quickly cultivate available manpower."

"Yeah." Xu Changfeng thought it made sense, it was much easier to use those people to pass the level, and he didn't need to arrange it himself.

"You're right. They've been at the northern border. It's more convenient to understand the situation there. It's best to let them do this."

With doting eyes, Xu Changfeng said with a smile: "You are still smart and thoughtful about things, and you solved my difficult problem with a few words."

"you

Responsible for buying, Uncle He and the others are responsible for shipping and selling, so that no one takes advantage of the other. "Yun Changsheng laughed.

"Thanks to you." Xu Changfeng said sincerely: "Uncle He and the others are all looking at your face, so it's like giving me money for nothing."

"No way." Yun Changsheng was proud and pretended to be reserved, and said: "Mutual benefit and reciprocity, the money will not flow out, and it can help many people, isn't it a good thing."

"Yeah." Xu Changfeng glanced out of the window, and Si Zhu brought a servant over with food, and said with a smile: "It's time to eat, try the roast duck you bought today, it tastes very good."

"Okay." Yun Changsheng got up, and said happily: "It happens that I'm a bit greedy, and I even asked the kitchen to make braised pork."

Since Xu Changfeng came here, Yun Changsheng has been more extravagant. He has doubled his meal from two courses to four courses. The quality has also improved significantly, and he no longer mainly eats vegetarian food.

The four dishes arranged today are braised pork, steamed fish, spicy cucumber and winter melon with shrimps, and the roast duck bought by Xu Changfeng is even more hearty.

These are rare dishes in rural farmhouses or harsh military camps. Yun Changsheng remembers the way of keeping in good health, and Xu Changfeng is not picky about food.

The two of them were very satisfied after a meal, and there was only one duck leg and one piece of duck breast left, which Xu Changfeng specially left for Yun Changsheng as supper.

"Uh." Yun Changsheng hiccupped, glanced at Xu Changfeng, saw that he was still digging watermelon flesh for himself with his head down, and exhaled: No embarrassment.

"Put the watermelon first." Xu Changfeng put the watermelon flesh in the ice basin, seemingly unintentionally said: "It will be cool outside, let's go for a walk, and the watermelon will be frozen when we get back."

"Yeah." Yun Changsheng still wanted to sit for a while before going out for a walk, but now Xu Changfeng suggested that he get up and said, "The coolness of the ice basin is far less refreshing than the coolness brought by the night wind, from now on we will go out for a walk more sooner or later. "

"Okay." Xu Changfeng said with a smile.

He likes the current life very much, there are not too many people involved, just him and Yun Changsheng, quiet, simple and at ease, without right and wrong.

But in life, wishful thinking only accounts for one or two, and the remaining eight or nine are either other people's business or self-seeking troubles. Xu Changfeng happens to be mostly other people's business.

"Major General." Ning Shan came in a hurry, "The house is in chaos, the Duke almost fainted from anger, you should go back and have a look."

"What's the matter?" Xu Changfeng frowned, turned to Yun Changsheng and said, "I'll go and have a look, I might be back late at night, you should go to bed early."

"I'll go too." Yun Changsheng said immediately, "I haven't seen Xu for a long time.

Duke, just go over to have a look today. "

Seeing Xu Changfeng's frowning and worried look, he couldn't bear that he was always suppressing himself, and wanted to go over to see what was going on, but he was so angry that he was able to faint.

When people get together, there are many things. If they love each other as a family, it’s okay, but if they are just tied together for the benefit or some other things.

Then don't expect to have a rest, everyone has their own minds, some small tricks or tricks come one after another, and this is the case in Yun Changsheng's previous life's home.

Xu Changfeng didn't refuse, and he didn't worry about keeping Yun Changsheng, afraid that he would worry about him, "Okay, let's go together."

The night was bright, Xu Changfeng's face was serious, he ordered the horse to come over, and led Yun Changsheng to a corner of the side door, "Let's go through the side door, don't disturb the front yard."

Yun Changsheng had no objection, and followed Xu Changfeng, listening to him ask about Ningshan's situation, and felt moved and annoyed by Xu Changfeng after listening.

It really has everything, it is indeed a common problem of big families, greed for ink, harsh treatment of concubine children, abuse of aunts, all kinds of methods have not been left behind.

If it weren't for the fact that the Duke's mansion has no property at all, and all the money is held by Duke Xu, these things would not have been exposed today.

It turned out that a store in the mansion came to ask for the bill today, and it has been owed money for several months. If it is not paid in full, it will no longer be able to provide the daily needs of the mansion.

These shops have been supplying the Duke's Mansion for many years, and they always pay their bills once a month. Occasionally, there are things that are owed for several months, and they are not in a hurry to settle the bills.

During this period of time, because of the incidents in the Duke's Mansion, they owed debts and sold inventory, so they were anxious and embarrassed to ask for debts immediately.

But it has been quiet for so many days, and the Duke's Mansion still allows them to provide daily needs, but no one has mentioned the matter of settlement.

Some stores are small businesses and can't afford not to settle for such a long time, so they bite the bullet and ask for a part of the account to be settled, and a big problem suddenly happened.

The money has been paid out long ago, but they have not paid the bills to these stores, whether it is because they are greedy or not, or there is some reason, now Xu Guozheng is investigating.

Except for the wives of the concubines who couldn't touch the power of the housekeeper, Mrs. Qian of the first room, Mrs. Xu of the second room, and even the old lady Yang, none of them had clean hands and feet.

During the investigation, Xu Guogong found out that they had treated the concubine's children and concubines harshly, and all the little tricks that never surfaced were made public.

"Are you here?" Xu Guogong was sitting in the main hall of the Duke's mansion, with an inexplicable expression of joy and anger on his face.

Yun Changsheng and Xu

Changfeng saw the ceremony, sat aside and didn't ask about what happened in the mansion, waiting to see what Xu Guogong called these people to do.

All the big and small masters of the house were there, even the old lady Yang and the wife of the big house Qian who had been imprisoned in the ancestral hall were also released.

This is a big event, Yun Changsheng glanced at Xu Changfeng, and found that his face was calm, but his eyes were darker than before, and it seemed that he was not as indifferent as he appeared on the surface.

"Now all the houses in the mansion have arrived." Xu Guogong said: "Let's talk about the unspeakable things in the mansion."

He smiled self-deprecatingly, "For a lifetime as a soldier, I entrusted the Duke's Mansion to you people who stayed in the mansion to take care of it. I didn't expect you to really open my eyes."

"Excessive extravagance, with eyes full of money and interests, for his own shameful little thoughts, he dares to do anything."

Xu Guogong's eyes fell on Mrs. Yang, Mrs. Qian, and Mrs. Xu, his disappointment seemed to be clear, and he said: "Return all the money you have earned in the mansion these years, and wipe away the illegal things you did outside. otherwise."

"We are also for the mansion." The old lady Yang raised her head sharply. She heard Xu Guogong's words were not kind, and hurriedly defended: "The mansion is prosperous, and the expenses are huge..."

"Enough." Xu Guogong sneered, and he really didn't give any kindness, "For the sake of the mansion? There are still few people in the mansion who have been corrupted by you all these years, and if you do illegal things outside, do you have any money?"

Xu Guogong looked at the hall with his head down, the children of concubines and some aunts who were next to each other, their eyes were even colder.

"It's a show of magnanimity in the open, but it's secretly deducting the daily needs of the concubine's children and aunts, and there's not a room with clean hands and feet."

These words even brought up the concubine's rooms, which made the ladies of those rooms change their faces. Unexpectedly, Xu Guogong even checked the affairs of their rooms clearly.

At this time, everyone was terrified, unable to ask their master for help in such a matter, they could only lower their heads and wait nervously for Xu Guogong to deal with it.

Yun Changsheng listened silently, these things had nothing to do with him, he came here only for Xu Changfeng.

Which of these noble mansions is free from dirty things, if someone stands up and pats his chest to promise, Yun Changsheng will definitely give him a "pooh" face.

Not to mention the distance between having more children, it is impossible for a large family to be together without friction, even concubines, aunts and concubine children are destined not to be peaceful and harmonious in the back house.

The more Xu Guogong talked, the more angry he became, his chest heaved and fluctuated, it seemed that he was very angry, his eyes were scarlet like a tiger that wanted to eat people.

"Give me all

When I enter the ancestral hall, I cannot come out without my permission, and I repent every day on a vegetarian diet. "

He couldn't keep them watching, and when he heard the people below report what he had found, he didn't even violate the strict prohibition of mutilating heirs.

"Huh?" Yun Changsheng heard, if this is done, the mansion will become more and more chaotic, and if it is spread, it will make people laugh.

He rolled his eyes, quietly approached Xu Changfeng and whispered something in Xu Changfeng's ear, meeting Xu Changfeng's surprised eyes, Yun Changsheng smiled shyly.

Mouthing to him, said silently: "Don't be mad at Xu Guogong."
