When attacked and worn as a farmer's daughter-in-law

"Father-in-law, I'm sorry to trouble you." Wu Shuanglin wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a look of gratitude that he finally caught up.He was so anxious before, the fields and houses had to be sold, the cattle had to be bought, and the little money owed had to be paid off. From last night to now, he was as busy as a spinning top.He sent his eldest son's family to guard the intersection early in the morning, for fear of missing time.

Father Shen waved his hand: "Don't delay, you get in the car and have a rest first, we'll talk on the way."

The convoy set off again.

Wu Bin's words spread quickly, and everyone in the group had sticks in their hands, looking vigilant.

Fang Tianlin drove the bullock cart to open the way ahead, and Zhaocaijinbao followed on both sides.

Seeing that the carriage was moving again, the cloth curtain was pulled open, revealing three little heads, who shouted in unison, "Daddy, Father."

"Why did you come out? Get in quickly, it's cold outside." Shen Jiahe turned around and stuffed the three little guys back into the carriage.

Fang Tianlin turned his head to the side, smiled at Shen Jiahe and said, "Go in and accompany them, I reckon they will have their mouths puckered."

"Okay, I'll replace you later." Shen Jiahe lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

Fang Tianlin gathered his clothes, looked back and saw the people walking with the car, and sighed in his heart, it is very good that everyone in the Shen family has a car, but most people in the other families have to walk on their feet, and they can only get in the car when they are tired.

It was really cold this day, Fang Tianlin was wearing a thick rabbit fur coat, and the car seat was also padded with a cotton mattress, it still felt chilly, Zhaocai followed up Bao's two hounds were very vigilant, barking non-stop when there was any disturbance, People dare to approach without reason.

There was no twists and turns along the way, and the group entered Fuyang County at noon.

On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Shen Jiahu had already informed Xue Guanglin that they would come today.No, Xue Guanglin was waiting in the cloth shop in advance.The shop of his family has already been sold out. Because Fang Tianlin and the others had to rest here today, the time was deliberately postponed, and the buyer will officially accept it after tomorrow.

As the vehicles drove into the courtyard, Fang Tianlin got out of the car and stomped his feet. It took him a while to feel his body warm up.He took Shen Bi and Shen Zhang from Shen Jiahe, and carried them towards the main room.

The triplets were very excited, even Shen Bi, who was always lazy, looked around and saw that everything was new.

The yard was noisy, Fang Tianlin didn't let the children go to the ground, he didn't put them down until he entered the main room.

The brazier was quickly raised, and the temperature in the main room began to rise continuously.

The little ones were dressed thickly, and Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe helped the children take off their hats, gloves and outer shirts when they came together at room temperature.Before, they were wrapped up like little bears, and the triplets wobbled when they walked, but now that they are free of these burdens, they can run very quickly.

The main room was soon full of people, and those who couldn't sit down went into their assigned rooms.

Fearing that his children would be accidentally stepped on by adults running around, Shen Jiahe went back to the carriage and brought some small toys.Most of them were made by himself and Fang Tianlin when they were free. They may not look good, but at least they are smooth and not sticky at all.

Shen Jiahe picked out three jigsaw puzzles and handed them to his sons.

As soon as the triplets got this familiar toy, they immediately calmed down, sat on Fang Tianlin's thick cushion on the floor, and started playing with all their heart and soul.

The children's imagination is very rich, some graphics even Fang Tianlin did not think of.He sincerely lamented that this thing is indeed an enlightenment toy!The triplets are already smart, but after playing this game often, they become more creative, and they are almost out of seven boards.

"Father, father, look." Shen Zhang excitedly ran to the side of the mat and shouted loudly.

Fang Tianlin turned his head and saw another pattern that he hadn't seen before. No wonder the second son was so happy to present treasures to him and his wife. He smiled and patted the second son's head a few times.

After receiving the praise, Shen Zhang moved his feet and rubbed the top of his head against Shen Jiahe's palm, then ran back contentedly, and continued to fight against the jigsaw puzzle.

Shen Bi and Shen Huang were much quieter, patterns were formed on their hands.Most of them have been done before, and a small part is still being tried.Some failed, and they couldn't see what it was. Both of them were very patient, and they were not discouraged when the experiment was unsuccessful, and they continued to fight.

Seeing his interest, Shen Jiahe simply took out a pair of building blocks from the toy box, and called his daughter-in-law along, and the couple had a great time playing on the mat.

"Third brother and sister, Dad is looking for you, and I need you to do something." Shen Jiahai scratched his head, feeling a little sorry for disturbing the third brother's family having fun.

How could Fang Tianlin care about this?He stood up without saying a word, and followed Shen Jiahai into the room next to the main room.

"Third daughter-in-law, sit down. That's how it is. Your elder sister and the others decided to go with us temporarily. There is no way to guide us. The road may be inconvenient. There is still some time. Can you see it?"

"No problem, I'll go right away. But I just asked Zhou Yi for help a few days ago, and it's not easy to do it. This time, I need to increase the etiquette, so that Zhou Yi and Zhang Ting can take care of it." Fang Tianlin readily agreed. .

"Success, I'll ask someone to prepare it right away." Father Shen took out an account card and handed it to Fang Tianlin.

There are several types of Lu Yin, and the one run by the Shen family is the most complicated. It is a big family and everyone has a share.Fang Tianlin's handling is much simpler this time. One household registration only needs a guide, and the name in the guide is the same as the household post, including all the members of the Wu family.

This time, Zhang Ting was the one to handle the road guide. He stuffed the household registration officer with a few pieces of silver, and the matter was finalized.

"Has the destination been finalized this time?" Zhou Yi asked again, not wanting to lose contact with Fang Tianlin.

"Tentatively decide on Yunzhou, the specific location depends on the situation. Otherwise, I will send a letter when I arrive at the place." Fang Tianlin felt that the two yamen servants were fine. Although their hands and feet were not clean, their hearts were not yet. Hei Tou, he is more measured in doing things, at least he will not bully the people at will, and he can make friends.

"I want to leave too, but after I leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter any yamen in the future. I finally made a name for myself in the county yamen, and my family doesn't agree with me leaving." Zhang Ting sighed.

They are more informed than ordinary people, the situation outside is getting more and more serious, Fuyang County is not peaceful here, the number of robberies is much higher than before, and the yamen arrests are almost overwhelmed, as long as there is no murder case, they are very Less dispatches, the main energy is on the county side.

Fang Tianlin collected the account post and Lu Yin, and clasped his fists: "Farewell."

"Take care of yourself!"

"Take care!" Fang Tianlin smiled, "Maybe we can continue to cooperate. There are a lot of good things in the south, and the profit is not low if you sell them here."

"hope so!"

Looking at the back of Fang Tianlin striding away, Zhou Yi said to Zhang Ting: "How likely do you think what he said is possible?"

"I don't know." Zhang Ting gave him a blank look.

"Hey, we have made a lot of money by cooperating with him for one year. As long as our luck is not too bad, we won't fall into the same situation as the disaster victims outside." Zhou Yi sighed, "It's a pity, the cooperation time is too little, The Shen family's brand has not been fully launched, and we only made a small amount of money."

"Okay, don't think so much, hurry up and get to work, there are more and more things recently, just after the Lantern Festival, and there is no rest." Zhang Ting rubbed his forehead.

The two immediately immersed themselves in their respective affairs.

"Father, there are still many things to do at home. You can do whatever you want, and I won't accompany you. I will see you at the Nancheng Gate at the beginning of tomorrow." Xue Guanglin made the arrangements and said goodbye to Father Shen.

"Okay, I see, you hurry up and do your work." Father Shen waved his hand with a smile.

As soon as he entered the house, Xue Guanglin was called into the study by his father Xue Changfu.

"Guanglin, I didn't agree with your proposal at the beginning. Well, you said it was your Yue family, and I didn't object, but now look, they brought a lot of people over, and the bodyguards in the team are just like that. Duo, if something happens on the road, can you protect me?" Xue Changfu cast a sidelong glance at his second son.

"Father, the Shen family is my father-in-law's family. It's right to help them. But you don't have to worry about this. Father-in-law and the others don't mean to let us take care of them. They can take care of themselves. I just help a little, not Trouble." Xue Guanglin said this, but what he was thinking in his heart was, you have all the relatives in the family, why can't I bring the Shen family?At least they won't take advantage of it and talk about me behind my back.

Xue Changfu obviously didn't think so, Shen's family is a foreign family, and their Xue family is their own family, can the two be the same?He said with a sullen face: "This is the end of the matter, I won't say anything, but remember to be careful, and don't always go to the Shen family on the way. You also know that our family is a new business in Fuyang County, and its foundation is not stable. The right to speak in the team is average. Most of the relatives of other businessmen are in the same family as theirs, and the gap will not be very big. There are poor relatives, but they are far away from each other, and this time they will not be brought along at all.”

Xue Changfu took a breath, and then said: "Only our family is in a special situation. Although your uncles rely on my family to start a small business, they are far behind, and they are completely out of the sight of these businesses. Your uncles are all like this, the Shen family They are still digging food in the mud, I guess they don't even bother to give them a look."

Xue Guanglin lowered his head, didn't say a word, and let his father speak at length.Merchants are all chasing profit, and now they form an alliance, it’s good for you and me, but once you get to the place, don’t you just do what you want?If there is no conflict of interest, you can still rely on the friendship of this fellowship to help each other a little bit. Once it involves yourself, especially your colleagues, it will be a fight between you and me. It is far less reliable than the Shen family. At least they will not On the surface, he was friendly, but secretly stabbed a knife in his back.

"Okay, you go down." Xue Changfu closed his eyes slightly, leaned on the back of the chair, and let out a long sigh. This second son is getting more and more difficult to manage.

The next morning, Fang Tianlin woke up, together with Shen Jiahe, they packed up their sons and carried them into the carriage.In the bullock cart he was in, besides his family, there were three members of Shen Jiaxi's family.But when Shen Jiaxi was on the way, he was in another car, and two nephews came over instead.

Soon, everyone packed up, and a group of people headed towards the south gate.

When they arrived, it was still early for the appointed time, and there were only a dozen or so carriages parked scatteredly on the side of the city gate.

As the sun gradually rises, more and more cars are parked, and until the departure, it is impossible to see the end.Most of them are horse-drawn carts, and there are only a few ox carts except for them and their party.These people are very brightly dressed, the women's heads are covered with emerald jewels, and the men's waists are decorated with jade and boots.If it weren't for the bond of Xue Guanglin, the Shen family and them would be people from two different worlds, and it would be impossible for them to have any intersection at all.

Fang Tianlin held Shen Jiahe's hand and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, second brother-in-law, don't you often see him? Are you just an ordinary person? They are just businessmen, and their status is not as high as ours."

There is nothing wrong with the literal meaning of this statement, but it cannot be further studied.Otherwise, how could farmers wear commoner clothes and merchants wear silk?

After coming to Jingchao for nearly three years, Fang Tianlin also got a general understanding of some situations.Although the Jing Dynasty was based on agriculture, the handicraft industry was already very prosperous, and commerce was faintly showing signs of surpassing agriculture.This is very similar to what he knew about the situation in the late Ming Dynasty, maybe he can develop in this direction.

After hearing Fang Tianlin's words, Shen Jiahe smiled at his daughter-in-law with the corners of his mouth open, and his heart gradually calmed down.

The line was lined up one by one, with the Shen family at the end, and the owners of the other bullock carts in front.Fang Tianlin no longer opened the way, and became the queen of the palace, where wealth and treasure were nestled on both sides of the chariot shaft.

There is a person in charge of the convoy, and he arranges all matters on the road.The bodyguards kept cruising back and forth on both sides of the team, which seemed to be the case.

Seeing that everyone was ready, the person in charge gave an order, and the convoy moved forward slowly.

This time, thanks to the many servants brought by the merchants, otherwise the Shen family and his party would not be able to catch up with the speed of the carriage, and it would be impossible to go together.

After the official departure, Shen Jiahe and Liu Cheng took turns driving, while Fang Tianlin sat on one side, holding a hunting bow he made using a biological force field to guard against.

The law and order in Fuyang County is not bad. Even if someone robs in broad daylight, the number of people is small. No one dares to move such a huge convoy like Fang Tianlin and the others.

Even so, the team is not calm.Of course, the commotion came from within the convoy.

The bigger the team, the slower the action.If it's just a family and there is no burden, they can arrange food and accommodation for the whole trip. As long as they don't go into the barren mountains and wild forests, they can always find a place to stay.

Now many people in the convoy rely on their feet to walk, and their speed cannot increase, so it is natural for them to sleep in the wild.No, just on the third day of departure, the sky is on the ground.

Fortunately, this was within the plan and not an accident.Everyone in the team has been prepared for a long time, and the water has been replenished at the previous stop, so there will be no embarrassment of not having enough water.

It's just that this has already made those spoiled young masters and ladies unbearable.They have to travel during the day, so they can't ask for too much, and they can't eat a good meal or sleep well at night, which makes them feel very depressed, and it is inevitable to vent their temper.

Everyone is of the same status, and no one is more noble than the other. During the day, they sit in their own compartments without interfering with each other. When they get close at night, they inevitably rub against each other.

Originally, under the influence of their elders, the children of merchants are generally better at being human, and they will not fight at every turn. There are dudes, but they are a minority after all, otherwise the family will go downhill.But this is under normal circumstances. Now they are irritable, and their words are more gunpowder, and they will stab a few words if they don't like it. In the end, the elders have to separate the younger generation who made troubles. Now it is quiet.

Fang Tianlin's hearing is good, and he also heard a few words about what happened earlier.Of course, this was only the case when camping. There was a long queue of convoys on the road. No matter how strong his hearing was, it was impossible for him to hear the conversation in front of him from a long distance away.

After driving for three days, I still haven't walked out of this yellow land.This place is similar to that in Fuyang County. The smaller rivers have all dried up. If you want to see the river, you can only wait until the spring snow melts.

There is no shortage of food in the convoy, it should be said that it is very abundant. In addition, many businessmen gather together, and the wealth has reached a considerable amount, which is simply a shining target.If there were bandits and bandits, who would we not rob them of?

Fang Tianlin was not overly worried. Rich people would spare their lives. In addition to hiring a lot of bodyguards, there are also a large number of guards, but they can only protect the master. If others are in trouble, they may help them. They are far away will not interfere.

The Shen family prepared well, and brought as many things as possible in as little space as possible. All kinds of food were basically ground into powder, and most of the vegetables were dried.For convenience, before departure, a lot of noodle cakes were spread out, which can be eaten with a little heating and various side dishes.

The Shen family brought a stove, and Mrs. Yao was busy cooking mutton soup, and the aroma wafted far away.If it wasn't for this thing's ability to dispel the cold, the Shen family wouldn't have done it. It's really a bit of a hit among these people nearby.As for the rich merchants on the other side, they brought a lot of good things, and there were all kinds of meat, and it was just mutton, which they didn't like at all.

The younger children of the Shen family circled around the pot, including the triplets.A little farther away, there were some children who were sucking their mouths, obviously greedy.

"Father, Wan." Shen Huang leaned against the foot of Shenjiahe, raised his head and said a few words.

Shen Jiahe bent down and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

"En." Shen Huang nodded.

"Okay, let's go get the bowl." Shen Jiahe picked up his youngest son, turned his head to Fang Tianlin and said, "Daughter-in-law, look at the eldest son."

"Go, I'm here." Fang Tianlin glanced at the two people who were going away, and continued to focus on the eldest son and the second son.

You don't have to keep staring at your children at home. When you're outside, you can't let them out of sight for a moment. If someone takes one of them away, there's nowhere to cry.

Soon, Shen Jiahe and Shen Huang appeared in Fang Tianlin's sight again.Shen Jiahe hugged Shen Huang, and Shen Huang was smiling at him while holding a bunch of wooden bowls.

As soon as it landed, Shen Huang staggered and ran forward, and distributed a wooden bowl to each of the two elder brothers.

Aunt Yao looked at the triplets holding wooden bowls and begging her for food with a grin, her eyes full of helplessness, and she could only give a spoonful to each of them.The child was still young, so she helped carry it over.

Fang Tianlin looked at his sons' deeds, lying on the neck of the Shen family river, laughing so that his shoulders trembled.The children are so talented. When they blink three pairs of black eyes and show a mouthful of small white teeth and smile at people, it is really hard to refuse. At least the Shen family who can stop their offensive has not yet appeared. .

Enough laughing, Fang Tianlin straightened up, walked to the small table, picked up the bowl and began to feed the three children.

The triplets can already eat by themselves, but the conditions are limited now, and the clothes are dirty and difficult to wash, so Fang Tianlin and Shen Jiahe are still feeding them.

Halfway through the two feedings, a voice rang out: "Our boss bought this soup, take it with me and follow me."

Aunt Yao was stunned for a moment, had she ever seen such a scene?

Hearing the movement, the rest of the Shen family all moved closer to this side.

Fang Tianlin stood up: "Jiahe, look at the children, I'll take care of this matter."

After regaining her senses, Mrs. Yao was a little at a loss, thought for a while, and replied, "I can't make the decision."

"Then call the master to come over."

Fang Tianlin looked at the people in front of him. They were well dressed and looked like they should be first-class butlers. There was no look of contempt on his face, but he didn't take them seriously. His words carried a sense of superiority.

"How much did you pay for it?"

"You can be the master?" Chen Guanshi's eyes swept over Fang Tianlin. He was too young to look like the head of the family.However, he didn't dare to underestimate the person in front of him. Although this person was only wearing a gray rabbit fur coat that was worthless, his figure and standing posture didn't look like what a farmer should have.

"Ah."

"..." Chen Guanshi squeezed the broken silver in his hand, put it back into his bosom again, replaced it with a bigger one, and spread his palms, "Is this enough?"

Fang Tianlin glanced over, pondered for a moment, and agreed: "We still have to cook soup, you go and ask someone to come over and bring the pot."

Chen Guanshi was stunned, and then glanced at it without any trace, and decided to follow Fang Tianlin's words after a while.

"Father, you put this away." Fang Tianlin turned his head and handed the piece of silver to Father Shen.

There were many people watching around, but Father Shen hesitated to speak, and quickly collected the money.

Seeing that the mutton soup that was about to be ordered flew away just like that, Shen He looked frustrated.

Fang Tianlin patted him on the head and comforted him: "You will not be missing, and I will cook another pot later."

Shen He was overjoyed at first, then pursed his lips, and quickly left this sad place.It takes a long time to cook the soup, and when the next pot is ready, he will finish his meal!Staying here again, smelling the smell of meat but not being able to eat it, is simply torture.

Looking at his nephew who ran away, Fang Tianlin shook his head with a smile, and returned to the small table.After such a delay, the little guys also drank almost the same soup.He couldn't help sighing that his sons were lucky to fill three bowls of the soup before someone bought it.

"Dongzi, go get a big soup pot and follow me." Steward Chen ordered to go down as soon as he arrived at his residence.

Dong Qing hurriedly agreed, and trotted to the temporary kitchen to ask for something.

Not long after, Chen Guanshi brought Dong Qing to the Shen family again.

The two parties quickly completed the transaction.

Dong Qing held a large pot of mutton soup and asked inexplicably: "Guard Chen, master and the others haven't eaten any good things, why did they fall in love with this mutton soup?"
