The Prince of Rebirth

Aunt Zhang's family is also considered to be rich and well-off, just because the merchants are not valued by the nobles.Earlier, when they were in their boudoir, the two elders of the Zhang family never thought of sending their daughter to be a concubine in the Hou's mansion. Marrying a businessman's wife and being a regular wife is better than going to the Hou's family to be a young man. Looking for a baby relative, but due to some reasons, Zhang's reputation was damaged when he was not out of the cabinet, so he went around and carried him into the second room to become an aunt.

She didn't tell the Zhang family what happened to the Zhang family back then, so not many people in the Xia family knew about it.The Zhang family felt sorry for their daughter and finally felt that they had treated the Zhang family badly. When they brought them in, they lost three well-located shops and made jewelry. Everyone valued Mrs. Zhang.

For many years, the Zhang family and the Zhang family have often walked around, because Xia Jin, who is not a serious relative, is inconvenient to see each other. Therefore, although the Zhang family comes frequently, only the Zhang family is there to gossip and gossip, and even the second master Xia has never been there. Showed up.

Once the word "concubine" is deducted, unless it is in Tian's family, even in the back houses of princes and generals, they will be as cheap as dust.

"In this way, the family only knows that my aunt has three shops, but they don't know the name?"

"No, even the master never asked."

Xia Jin looked down at the piece of paper in her hand again, and after thinking for a while, she moved the thing to the candlestick and burned it. There was no sign of worry on her face, and she only told Xie Yuer to settle the matter after he left early in the morning. Inform Mrs. Lee.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Jin was about to get into the car after packing up early, but saw Xia Pei leading the book boy Fang Ding hurriedly to this side.Xia Yu and Xia Huan took the carriage one step earlier, and now there are only these two ready-made carriages in the house. If Xia Pei wants to go to school, she must ride with him, so Xia Jin is no longer in a hurry to get in the carriage. Stand where you are and wait for Xia Pei to rush over.

"Thanks for catching up. If I miss Brother Seven's car, I won't be able to go to school until when."

Xia Jin lifted the curtain with one hand to signal Xia Pei to go up, but Xia Pei didn't hesitate, she flipped onto the car two or three times before she could sit down, and hurriedly turned back to call Seventh Brother, Xia Jin followed her, and quickly pulled the thick car curtain Put down to block the cold wind and the two book boys shivering in the wind.

Lang Shun: ...

Hey, this is Jiasaner, Hong Guoguo is grabbing the seat by virtue of his relationship, hey!

"Why don't you take a rest for a few more days before you get better from the cold? These days are the coldest time, and you have to go back and lie down for a while after blowing the cool breeze carefully."

"I'm not as weak as Brother Seven said. I'm already in good shape. It's just that my mother is worried and has to hold me back for a few more days. Brother, I had a hard time yesterday and asked her to let go. I can't miss today. .”

Xia Pei took the two books out of her bosom and handed them to Xia Jin with both hands. The hands were warm, as if they had been in her bosom for a while.

"Thanks to Seventh Brother's comments these past few days, even though I didn't go to the school, I still know something about the situation. Mother said thank you so much."

"You and my brothers with the same surname don't pay attention to what to thank or not. Just study hard. Your father worked very hard outside. If a son can study well and get a job, he can share some of his troubles."

Mr. Xia has already decided to go back to the Northwest camp with King Dingyuan after next year. The old Hou Ye beat and scolded him, but it didn't work. The father and son are still in the cold war stage, and there is no sign of easing up. , I can see that there is no one in the whole house who is not worried.

"By the way, Lin Hang went to the school yesterday, and they are all in the Songxiang Academy. You should be able to see him today."

"Brother Shi Zi went to school!"

Xia Peiming got used to it for a while and couldn't change his words, but the surprise on his face was so obvious that people ignored his slip of the tongue, which shows how powerful Lin Hang's going to school had been on him.

"He doesn't know a single word, how did he get into school?"

This... Xia Jin doesn't comment.

Xia Pei also felt that she had overreacted, she stretched out her claws and scratched her head in embarrassment, and said after a while,

"The most impatient thing in the world is reading, so I was so surprised when I heard that he went to the Pine Fragrance Academy."

Xia Jin didn't care about this. In comparison, it was obvious that another matter attracted his attention more than why Lin Hang went to the Pine Fragrance Academy.

"King Dingyuan has a noble status, even if it's inconvenient to teach in the army, Lin Hang, as a prince, can't be illiterate. How could he make such a joke?"

Xia Pei scratched her head, trying to find a grand reason to save Lin Hang some face, but after all, she couldn't think of any reasonable reason, so she had to say the most unreliable one but the closest to the truth.

"Since he was a child, he was often laughed at because of male and female appearance, so he always wanted to become a burly and strong man. He always said that holding a book was too feminine, because of this man who refused to touch paper and pen no matter how much the prince forced him. Unexpectedly, after entering the capital, I restrained my temper in the army and entered the school."

Xia Jin thought back to someone who ran faster than a rabbit after school yesterday, and this was really far from the norm.

"Ma'am, Xie Yu is here, waiting outside."

Mrs. Li just got up to pack up, and was about to go to Fushou Garden after tidying up, but Xie Yu happened to come over at this moment to block the way, really didn't understand the rules.Chun Equinox was not happy, but Li thought that Xie Yu would not do such absurd things on weekdays, and it must be something urgent, so he didn't dare to delay and let Chun Equinox call him in.

"I have seen Mrs."

"Don't stick to these vain etiquette, just tell me that you have something important to come to me in such a hurry, but what's wrong with my brother?"

Xie Yu looked left and right, and after the Spring Equinox Society agreed with Li Shi's nod, he went out with a few little maids who were waiting for the grooming. Seeing this, Xie Yu approached Li Shi and said in a low voice:

"Last night, the Orchid and Bamboo Garden sent someone to deliver something to my brother. There was a piece of paper in the middle. My brother took a look at it with the servant, and said that he came to tell you early this morning. The servant did not dare to delay. That's why I came here in a hurry."

"What about things?"

"My brother has already burned it."

"That's good. Seeing how Mrs. Zhang did it, this thing shouldn't be able to stay overnight. What's written on it?"

Xie Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, moved closer, lowered his voice to the point where only the two of them could hear, and then slowly spit out two words.

"Buddha food."

"pat-"

The comb in Mrs. Li's hand fell to the ground, but she was too frightened to pick it up. She took Xie Yu's hand and asked in a low voice:

"Where is the Buddha food!"

Xie Yu also knew that the matter was serious, he waited all night yesterday and didn't sleep well, this morning he watched Xia Jin leave before he ran to Jinxiu Garden without touching the ground to let Mrs. Li make up her mind.

"The ones from the Sanfo Temple outside the city, the lady used some means to divide them into several places and sold them to several larger rice merchants in central Beijing. Aunt Zhang also got some from the dowry shop, and the price is a few cents lower than ordinary rice. Money, but the appearance is good, and the portion is sufficient, so several rice merchants are regular purchases."

Mrs. Li was so frightened that sweat broke out on her back, but she still didn't believe it, and continued to ask:

"How did the Zhang family know it belonged to the big house, and how did they know it was Buddha's food? But it's nonsense!"

Selling Buddha's food privately requires beheading. Although Mrs. Wang has a strong temper, she is not a confused person. How could she do such a thing.It doesn't matter if she dies alone, but at this critical moment of renewing the title, if it is revealed by someone, the Yongning Hou Mansion will definitely have no hope of renewing the title this time, and then there is nothing for the two of them to fight for!

"In the beginning, the flower came early and chatted with me for a while, and I thought it was just something unimportant. I never thought that there was paper in the cloth bag. Now that the flower was here, what I said to me before is not true. This is the cause of the Buddha's food incident - it is said that relatives who often come and walk around saw acquaintances in the shop and recognized them as the elders. Although they did not recognize each other, they gave some benefits and did good deeds. The rice smells like Buddha!"

Li Shi's face turned pale, since Zhang Shi told her about this through Xia Jin, it meant that Zhang Shi could not use this matter to frighten her, so it seems that it is true in all likelihood.It must be that people under Wang's subordinates were recognized by Zhang's relatives when they went to sell Buddhist grains. The Buddhist grains were alms given by pilgrims, and they were often smoked with incense on weekdays. There is nothing strange about selling them together, but the people who buy them can smell them before they are mixed. Thinking about it this way-there are more than one or two people who know about this matter, so if something happens, how can they be suppressed.

"Has the master gone to court?"

"It's been a while."

Mrs. Li was so anxious, she was not a person with ideas, and she was capable of fighting with Mrs. Wang in the inner courtyard on weekdays, but if it involved the big issue of the whole family's life and death, it would be irrelevant. How will not deal with it.

"Ma'am, don't worry, maybe Aunt Zhang is playing tricks, everything will be discussed after the master comes back."

"How do you know the key point of this? This matter can be big or small. It would be considered trivial if the person above him insists on cutting Jue. Now the Hou's Mansion has nothing to do with the Dingyuan Palace because of the matter of the third house. If you let that person know about the Buddha food again, there is no reason to be lenient!"

Mrs. Li was so frightened that she had no choice but to swear at others to vent her impatience. Xie Yu was used to serving by her side in the past, so she couldn't tell. I was so scared that I didn't close my eyes all night. This matter is indeed too serious, and only a child like my brother who doesn't understand interests can take it lightly. Tell the master, it's better than tossing a few women and Taoists for a long time and can't come up with an idea.

The two masters and servants on this side were terrified by the matter of the Buddha's food, while Comrade Xia Jin, who had no idea what to do on the other side, led Xia Pei to the school to find the culprit.

Damn, where was there such a thing as Buddha food in the previous life, bastard!

In his previous life, the Marquis of Yongning lived smoothly until his death, and the renewal of the title was a one-off. Xia Jin believed that even in his previous life, there was such a thing as Buddha food. If it was too much trouble, at most it would be a few curses and fined some money, but now that Dingyuan Palace is involved, it is not certain whether the emperor can still support the Yongninghou Palace as he did in his previous life.

The grave eggs are all moths tossed out by that shit stick, how many troubles do they have to make before they are reconciled!
