For several days in a row, Mullin and the others did not come to the ferry again. After all, the follow-up of the case is still very troublesome, especially a lot of evidence needs to be collected.Yu Kun killed two people in a row, kidnapped Sun Maozhe, pretended to be Li Liangji and tried to seize the Ge family's property, and deliberately set fires. Even though Mu Qingyan was not so clear about the criminal laws of the current dynasty, he knew that Yu Kun was definitely sentenced to death.Right now, it depends on whether it is to be executed or executed, and then it has to be reported for approval. After all, it will not live until next year.

The inn next door was slowly built up, and as expected at first, there was a single courtyard at the back, and a small door was left to connect with the inn in front.

After finishing the work in the shop in the morning, Mu Qingyan calculated the money in his hand, and always felt that buying land and building a house was still a bit tight.His purpose is not to find work for his family, but to make Mu Wan a landlady and live a more comfortable life, so it is better to buy a few more acres of land.

Just as he was thinking about it, a carriage came in front of the shop, followed by a fully loaded cart.

Ge family!

Sure enough, the person who got out of the carriage was the master of the Ge family, Ge Dafu.

Ge Dafu has a wide body and a fat body, adhering to the principle of doing business harmoniously to make money, and always has a smile on his face.However, recent incidents happened in the family, and both father and daughter almost lost their lives. They went to the Yamen to hear the trial, appeased the servants to repair the house, and took care of the business. In addition, he was hit on the head before. After a few days, I became quite haggard.

But Ge Dafu had traveled far and wide in the end, and he quickly cheered up. Looking back on this matter, he felt that if he survived a catastrophe, he would have a blessing in the future.

Think about it, Li Liangji was dropped out, if he didn't find out, and became the son-in-law of the Ge family in the future, I'm afraid he would take the Ge family's property with all his heart and soul before a hundred years later, what would the Ge family's father and daughter have? Good end?

"Mu shopkeeper, it's thanks to you that my father and daughter of the Ge family escaped and ascended to heaven this time." Ge Dafu's face was full of gratitude, and his voice was sincere, without the airs of a rich man at all.

"Master Ge is serious. I'm just entrusted by the yamen." Mu Qingyan asked someone to sit down, and Mu Wenzhi brought tea with a wink.

"No matter what, I, Ge Dafu, will always keep your kindness in mind. I'm an ordinary person, so I don't have anything else to thank. These things are just a token of my heart. Shopkeeper Mu must not refuse."

While speaking, the butler had ordered his servants to bring in all the things on the cart.The car is full of regular thank you gifts, a few jars of wine, boxes of pastries, brightly colored linen, silk yarn, and a dozen pieces of silk.There is also a basket of red bayberries and a basket of pink peaches. Red bayberries are rarely seen in Fenglin County, so they should have been transported by water from the south.

Afterwards, the butler brought three more boxes, opened them and placed them on the table, two of them contained a set of gold and jade jewelry, and by looking at the patterns, one could tell that they were for Mu Wanmu's embroidery.Inside the other, there are ten small silver ingots neatly arranged, totaling 100 taels.

This little thing is worth nothing to Ge Dafu, but it is a huge sum of money to ordinary people.

Ge Dafu said again: "From now on, shopkeeper Mu has something to do, just go to me, as long as I can help, I will never refuse."

Ge Dafu is grateful to Mu Qingyan for his kindness, but also, he is also quite discerning. From Li Liangji's case, he can see that Mu Qingyan is by no means a mediocre person. The future is unpredictable, so he is naturally willing to get closer.Actually, according to the Ge family's financial strength, it would not be a big deal to double the gift, but he knew that too much was too late.

Mu Qingyan naturally saw that it was not his nature to seek favor and repay, but there was no harm in communicating with each other.

Send Ge Dafu away, call Mu Wenmu Wu to move things into the house.

Yangmei and peaches are all fresh fruits. The weather is hot, they are not durable, and there are too many to eat.After finishing lunch, Mu Qingyan called Mu Wenmu to close the shop, rented a car, only a few fruits were left, and all the fabric and cakes were loaded into the car, planning to go back to the village.

All the way home, I saw that the courtyard door was ajar, and there was no one at home.

There was a lock on the door of the main room, and Mu Qingyan had the key. The three brothers moved all their things into the house, and then Mu Qingyan sent them to find Mu Wan.According to Mu Wan's habits, she might still be busy in the field right now.

"It's Qingyan who's back." Aunt Zhao shouted through the courtyard door, and came in with a smile on her face.

"Aunt Zhao, come in and sit down." Mu Qingyan had already noticed that Aunt Zhao was coming, but what was surprising was that she lingered outside for a while before coming in.

Mu Qingyan washed the red bayberry on a plate and served it to the guests.

"Hey, this is a rare item. It's still early in the season, so it's on the market?" Aunt Zhao was quite surprised, and she also felt emotional in her heart. She is willing to eat such an expensive fruit, and the Mu family is really different from the past.It's just that she has something on her mind right now, so she doesn't want to eat fruit.

Mu Qingyan didn't take the initiative to ask, the two just sat quietly.

After all, Aunt Zhao couldn't bear it anymore: "Qingyan, I have something to ask, is your elder sister looking for a marriage?"

Mu Qingyan was a little surprised: "Who did Aunt Zhao hear?"

"Your brother Zhao Shan said that it was Da Linzi who raised a word with him."

Mu Qingyan had an idea in his mind, nodded and said: "That should be right. Eldest brother told me that he would only take care of elder sister's affairs after this time. Eldest sister's age is not easy to delay. Eldest brother also said that he would invite Zhao Auntie is helping."

Aunt Zhao smiled unnaturally: "Don't worry, my aunt will definitely help. I watched Xiao Wan grow up. Your family has no elders. I'll be a big one to help Xiao Wan."

Aunt Zhao was worried, she left after sitting down.If she wanted to go home and write a letter quickly, she had to urge Zhao He to come back quickly, otherwise her daughter-in-law would be gone.

Mu Wan came back with a lot of effort.

"Second Brother, Aunt Zhao came just now?" Mu Wan took a look from a distance.

"Well, Aunt Zhao happened to be passing by, so she came in and sat down." Mu Qingyan asked, "There are so many red bayberries and peaches that I can't finish them at home. Do you want to send some to someone else?"

Mu Wan wiped her hands and went into the main room, saw two big bamboo baskets on the side, and said with a surprised smile: "There are so many. Our family can't eat it. It's a good idea to give some to each family, so as not to waste it in vain."

They have no relatives, and usually take the other eleven families as relatives, but they are also close to each other.The gift to Zhao's family was of course first class, and a copy was prepared for Zhao Shan's family in the county, and the rest were a few peaches with a dozen red bayberries.

"With so much fabric, I can wear it all in one day." As she said this, the smile on Mu Wan's face never stopped.The materials that Ge’s family sent were better and more expensive than the ones he bought before, and Mu Wan couldn’t put them down: “Second brother, I’ll pick up yours for the clothes I made before, and I’ve made three sets of them. You can try them later. Save these materials for autumn. Cut your clothes."

"Big sister, do it slowly, don't rush, if you can't finish, please ask Aunt Zhao for help, and don't tire yourself."

"I know everything, you don't need to tell me." Mu Wan packed up the things he brought back without resting, saying that she had something to do with Aunt Zhao, and hurried out.

"Second Brother, someone has offended Eldest Sister." Mu Xiu was always quiet, a little shy.Mu Wen unpacked a box of cakes for her, and she ate them quietly at the table, laughing at people from time to time with two little dimples, not to mention how cute they are.

Mu Xiu's words made him wonder, Mu Wan was in the field before, did she have an argument with someone?

"Second brother, it's Wang's sister-in-law. It seems that the Yu family has come to talk about eldest brother's marriage." Mu Wen and Mu Wu went looking for Mu Wan together, and they just ran into each other.

Mu Qingyan frowned: "What's going on?"

Mu Wen shook his head: "I don't know, I asked Eldest Sister, but Eldest Sister didn't tell me."

Not long after, Mu Wan came back, and he asked again.

Mu Wan frowned, and her tone was displeased: "Then the Yu family! Today, Mrs. Wang went to the field to find me, saying that the Yu family was willing to take a step back in the bride price, and wanted to pick a date for a formal meeting between the two families. What do you say? Isn't it ridiculous? His family refused to give a dowry before, so it's fine if they can't agree, so I entrusted Mrs. Wang to settle the matter, and each family will find another marriage. After all these days, his family is fine. It seems like you want to bring up the old things again, and treat everyone else as fools?"

Mu Wan also felt that the Yu family's behavior was weird, but luckily Sister-in-law Wang had talked to her thoroughly.

It turned out that Mu Lin went to Dayu Village two days ago to investigate the case. He was dressed in a police uniform, with a big knife in his hand, and rode a fast horse with a heroic appearance.The villagers in the village are leading people to entertain them in person. Many people are inquiring when they see Mu Lin, especially when the Li Liangji case spreads. They all know that it is Mu Lin's second brother who solved the case. Tempted, want to marry Mu Lin.

The Yu family was naturally also tempted.

In many cases, the advantages and disadvantages are compared, and seeing is believing.Under the coercion of outsiders, and seeing Mu Lin being honored as a guest of honour, the Yu family really couldn't bear to miss this marriage, so they found Mrs. Wang again, and invited them to make peace, and said that the betrothal gift was easy to discuss.

Speaking of which, the girl from the Yu family is indeed nice, and there is nothing wrong with the Yu family, but the conversation between the two families was not pleasant, not only did Mu Lin let go, but Mu Wan also felt uncomfortable.If there is an elderly elder in the family, maybe this kind of relationship can still be made, but the Mu family only has a few brothers and sisters, and I just feel that my heart is already stinging.

Therefore, just now Mu Wan went to tell Aunt Zhao about this matter.

Although she had expressed her opinion to Sister-in-law Wang before, it was related to her eldest brother's life. Mu Wan was afraid that there would be some gossip from the Yu family, so she greeted Aunt Zhao and helped to be careful in the future.
