The dark waves on Zhuangzi were suppressed, and Xing Xiuyan was finally able to devote all her attention to the construction of the manor, and she forgot about all the matters of the Zhen family and the Jia family.

A steady stream of salted fish meat was distributed to farmers and then bought by merchants, a steady stream of salt was packed and shipped onto ships, and a steady stream of ships came to Jiaozhou Bay to Xing Xiuyan’s village...

Although the locusts hunted and killed by the common people were consumed with money and food, the prosperity of commerce still allowed Xing Xiuyan to accumulate a considerable amount of wealth in his hands.

Although she really wanted to continue to buy land, Xing Xiuyan still understood the truth of not revealing her wealth, not to mention that her Xing family still owed more than 300 million taels of silver.

Xing Xiuyan wrote to ask his father for instructions, and Xing Zhong replied that there was no need to rush to repay the debt, so Xing Xiuyan asked Chen Li to choose a few people to go to the sea merchants with the ship.

There is no way, real money stored in the cellar is no different from stones, and it is only money when it is called out.Instead of letting them accumulate dust in the warehouse, it is better to find a way to make money from this money.Now the warehouses on Zhuangzi are also making money, and the difference between entering and exiting is huge.

Busy and busy, more than half a year has passed like this, and autumn is here in a blink of an eye.

In the first half of July, the weather is still hot, and locusts can be seen covering the sky from time to time, but in August, when the autumn wind blows, the weather turns cooler quickly, and there are fewer grasshoppers.

The whole Xing family can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Only now did Xing Xiuyan have time to ponder the various news in the mansion newspaper.

At this time, it was widely rumored in the officialdom that the female family members of the Zhen family were going to be escorted to Beijing!

When the Zhen family was ransacked for questioning, the emperor made a special decree saying that the Zhen family owed too much to the state treasury, and ordered Ying Tianfu to sell it on the spot.As a result, the world is afraid of the emperor and dare not buy it.The men and women of the Zhen family exhibited on the streets of downtown Jinling for three or four months, but none of them were sold.The emperor had no choice but to issue an edict to escort the daughters of the Zhen family to Beijing, and it is said that they will continue in Beijing.

The officials whispered behind their backs that if they couldn't sell it again, the men, women and children of Zhen's family might be rewarded to their courtiers in the form of official slaves.

Xing Zhong knew that the momentum was not right.

Killing is nothing more than nodding.With the Zhen family in such a state, I'm afraid there is something serious behind the scenes.As the old relatives of the Zhen family, the Jia family might not be able to escape their ties!

Xing Zhong immediately approached Bai Xu and re-discussed the marriage.Bai Xu said that when he thought he could only die in the line of duty, his fiancée never left him, let alone now?The two re-discussed the date of their marriage, and as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, they got married.When Sanchao returned home, the third aunt of the Xing family had a ruddy complexion. Obviously, Bai Xu treated her very well.

In October, news of the Jia family appeared in the mansion newspaper—like the Zhen family, the once mighty Jia family was ransacked and the whole family was imprisoned!

Aunt Xing San, who got the news, panicked at the time and hurried to find her brother and sister-in-law. Xing Zhong asked his wife to bring their daughter to Beijing to take care of the matter as soon as possible.

As the chief envoy of Shandong, Xing Zhong could not leave his post without permission, and he could only let his wife and daughter go this trip.Because of time constraints, Mrs. Xing couldn't wait to clean up the house after she brought her daughter to Beijing, so she went directly to Lin's house.

Hearing that Mrs. Xing and Xing Xiuyan returned to Beijing, Mrs. Cheng was very concerned. Not only did she send her younger brother to guard the pier for several days, but she also opened the side door that day and brought Lin Daiyu and her son to wait behind the gate.

They haven't seen each other for a whole year, and they have a lot to say, but these words were choked in their throats when Xing Xiuyan took off Mili.

Because Xing Xiuyan has become dark and thin, not to mention comparing with Lin Daiyu, even when she left Beijing, she is very different!

Seeing Xing Xiuyan like this, Cheng was dumbfounded: "Here, this is the second girl? How did she become like this? God is so pitiful! It's not as good as raising people in Beijing outside. Let's celebrate the New Year at our house this year, and it's okay. Make up for the second girl. How can you be so thin?!"

Xing's wife said: "It's not because of something outside! I'm afraid my sister doesn't know, it's women acting as men and men acting as animals outside. Isn't it because there are so few people around! Our girl can only take the lead. Can you thin!"

Cheng said: "So that's how it is. It's because my sister has been well educated, and the second girl is all loyal and filial. No wonder there are rumors outside that I will give your master a nobility."

Mrs. Xing shook her head quickly, and said: "Oh! How can this be done? Our master is already a thorn in the eyes of others, if we are promoted again, I am afraid that some people will eat us alive! I would rather use this In exchange for our aunt's being safe and sound, I just don't know what the higher-ups mean."

Cheng quickly said, "Let's go in and talk."

After entering the main hall, Xing Xiuyan, Lin Daiyu, and Lin Geer greeted the two elders again, and after receiving gifts, they sat down.Cheng asked the nanny to carry her son down, and then said:

"Sister, do you want to take your aunt home?"

The so-called returning home means letting Mrs. Xing reconcile with Jia Amnesty, so that the bad debts of the Jia family have nothing to do with Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing is Jia She's continuation, and she has never given birth. The housekeepers in the Rongguo Mansion are Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, her aunt and nephew, and she has nothing to do with her. It is not difficult for her to escape.

"Yes."

Mrs. Cheng thought for a while, and said: "Let our master tell my sister about this matter. I'm afraid that if I don't understand it, it will spoil my sister's business. My sister and Er Yatou must be tired after traveling all the way. Go back to the room first. Rest for a while. I can also hold a banquet to welcome my sister."

When Xing's wife heard about it, she naturally agreed.

Back at her small courtyard in Lin's house, Xing Xiuyan couldn't sleep after freshening up, so she went to the next door to talk to Lin Daiyu.Lin Daiyu had already prepared, and the two sisters sat down in the suite, leaving only Xueyan to wait on them, and then whispered about Jia's affairs, and the first thing they mentioned was Yingchun.

It turned out that Yingchun got engaged at the end of last year and got married at the beginning of spring this year.She was already an old girl when she got engaged, and the time between the engagement and the marriage was very fast, and the interval was not even more than four months, so there was a lot of gossip outside, and people even found out about playing chess.

She was eighteen last year and nineteen this year. It is not uncommon for her to get engaged and get married at this age.But who made the big girl who ransacked the Grand View Garden and Dudu her be kicked out? !Therefore, many people talked a lot, saying that there might be other reasons for her rushing to get married, and they even made fun of Sun Shaozu behind his back for doing a job.

Sun Shaozu is not a good person at all, he has a bad temper, greedy|flower|good|sex, he likes to fight, and now he is being teased and forced to wear a cuckold. , more and more out of control.Not long after she got married, Yingchun suffered from domestic violence. When something happened to the Jia family, Yingchun was strangled to death immediately.

Xing Xiuyan was dumbfounded, and asked others, and Lin Daiyu talked about the Xue family and Miaoyu.Because they all lived in Jia's house, after they were captured together with Jia's house, the Ministry of Criminal Justice began to check their identities.Xue Panxian was found to be a murderer who had been on the run for many years, and his household registration had been cancelled. The Ministry of Criminal Justice simply included him in the list of Qiuhou Wenqiu. He pulled it to Caishikou and chopped off his head.

After the Xia family heard about Xue Pan, they went directly to Jingzhao Mansion to beat the drums, crying and complaining that the Xue family cheated on the marriage. Their family didn't even know that Xue Pan was legally dead long ago. The relevant officials checked and agreed. This statement declared that the marriage between Xia Jingui and Xue Pan was illegal and let her go home directly.

Aunt Xue brought Xue Baochai to the Wang family, but was ridiculed by Wang Ziteng's wife, and finally failed to live in the Wang family, so she had to rent another house to live in.I don't know the details.

And Miao Yu.When something happened to her family and the whole family went to prison, she should have been sold out together with the elders and female relatives of the family. I didn't want her to hide from her since she was a child because she entered a Buddhist monastery to lead a Buddhist practice.This time, Jia's house was ransacked, and she was taken too. Once the Ministry of Criminal Justice verified her identity, how could she be allowed to escape by flying into the sky? !In addition, the case of her family has been closed long ago, even if it is not her family's turn to be enthroned and amnesty, why is it necessary to bother with the Jia family?So as soon as her identity was verified, she was escorted to the teaching workshop.

When Xing Xiuyan heard about it, she was dumbfounded.

Looking at her appearance, Lin Daiyu knew that she still remembered Miaoyu's friendship as a half-teacher, so she whispered to her: "I have asked people to inquire about Miaoyu, she is gone."

Xing Xiuyan did not speak for a long time.

After a long time, Xing Xiuyan said: "Sister, I remember that the Zhen family will be released soon, right?"

"Yes."

"Then why did the Jia family want the three divisions to interrogate?"

If it was someone else, they might say it was because of Jia Yuanchun, but Lin Daiyu is a very smart woman.She pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice: "You mean, there are things the higher-ups want in that mansion?"

Xing Xiuyan nodded silently.

Even if the royal family sent spies to obtain the account books of the Zhen family first, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.But how long before and after the Zhen family was sold by the whole family?From the point of view of taking over and losing money, the Jia family is not as good as the Zhen family, not to mention that the Zhen family is known as the emperor of the earth in the south of the Yangtze River, while the Jia family has been marginalized for a long time in Beijing.

Seeing Xing Xiuyan nodding, Lin Daiyu confirmed her guess more and more.

"This...how can this be done?!"

Xing Xiuyan said: "It looks like, before taking my aunt home, I'm afraid I have to meet my aunt first."
