Wei and Jin cooks

Chapter 75 Ji Yuan

"Wait a minute, Zhao Ji is ignorant, but Zhao Zhongyu is not stupid. Let's see if anyone comes to the clan. If there is, I will naturally have the confidence to ask them and his son. If not, I will have the confidence to ask them and his son. He sighed and said: "Stop this matter and don't spread it around the clan. The clan leader is now Zhao Zhongyu. His reputation will be damaged and it will not be a good thing for the family."

Zhao Changyu's family connections, money, tribes, etc. were all handed over to Zhao Zhongyu. If the clan fell out with him, not only Zhao Zhongyu would be hit, but the clan would also be harmed. This was a lose-lose situation.

Since Zhao Hanzhang is willing to take a step back, he will naturally not hold on tightly, but he still has to do what needs to be done and the lessons that need to be given.

Otherwise, if the clan leader does whatever he wants regardless of the interests of the clan in the future, it will be his clansmen who will suffer.

Thinking of the Fu Tinghan he met during the day and Zhao Hanzhang's forbearance and generosity, Zhao Song felt his heart aching, "God forbid me, Mrs. Zhao, how could Sanniang be born a girl with such a heart and character?"

Zhao Ming said: "This shows that the Wang family is not stupid and blessed. Father, you have all misunderstood me."

Zhao Song's face darkened, "What is the misunderstanding? The eminent monk said it himself. Her horoscope and Zhi Zhi are not compatible. Otherwise, how could Zhi Zhi, such a smart person, give birth to a stupid son?"

Zhao Ming objected, "Didn't the uncle read the horoscopes for the two families before they got married? At that time, he didn't say there was a problem with the horoscopes. Why did she just give birth to Erlang? Here she happened to meet a traveling monk, and she was separated by the old man. Erlang, who figured out that she was sleeping with Cai Sheng, was a fool?"

"Then do you think the monk made a mistake in his calculation? All eminent monks have said that a person's luck will change. Maybe she was suitable at the time, but not suitable later?" Zhao Song sighed, "If she had been willing to listen to the advice at the time, If I left her early, maybe there would be no disaster later, and just a cold wind would take her away."

If Zhao Zhi were alive, how could the Zhao family be in the same hidden dangers now?

Zhao Zhongyu refused, but Zhao Song felt heartbroken when he thought that Zhao Zhongyu would hand over the Zhao family to Zhao Ji in a few years.

He also became increasingly dissatisfied with Wang.

Zhao Ming was different. He felt that his father and the others were just venting their anger. He did not hide his opinion and whispered: "Then Sanniang was also born to the Wang family. How can she be so smart and sensitive?"

He said: "It can be seen that everyone has his own destiny. This is Erlang's destiny. Even if it is related to his parents, it is the father who puts it in front. How can it all depend on the Wang family?"

Zhao Song didn't agree with him for a while, pointed at him and cursed: "I won't listen to your nonsense, get out."

When Zhao Ming heard this, he put down his father's half-rubbed feet and left.

The foot he had just wiped fell into the basin again, soaking his trousers. Zhao Song was so angry that he grabbed the footcloth and threw it away. Zhao Ming seemed to have eyes on the back of his head and ran out in two quick steps. The door disappeared in a flash.

Zhao Hanzhang was in the study and had a headache when he saw the food consumption report reported by Uncle Cheng. The relatives who came today ate up all the remaining carts of food.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Zhuangtou who was waiting on the side, "Zhao Tong, how much food is there in Zhuangzi now?"

Zhao Tong lowered his head and whispered: "There are not many left. There are only a dozen bags left in the warehouse, but the tenants should have some food stored at home. Last year, there was a drought. The landlord reduced the rent by 20% and gave another 20% of the rent." It will be kept until this year, so it would be reasonable for Sanniang to collect rent at this time.”

Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and asked, "What is the price of food in the city now?"

"The price of millet is twelve cents per dou, and the price of wheat is fourteen cents per dou."

Zhao Hanzhang frowned slightly, "It's so expensive..."

She knocked on the table, she was really short of money, "Let's get the food from the warehouse and use it first. We can't let the guests go hungry."

Although she planned to borrow money from her clan and was willing to cry about poverty, it didn't mean that she wanted people to see her in such embarrassment.

Not to mention robbing the sharecroppers of their food. Now is the time when there is a shortage of food. Who is not tightening their belts to get by?

Fu Tinghan waited for them to leave, then took out the jade pendant and handed it to her, "Take it and use it."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him.

Fu Tinghan smiled at her and said, "This is a dead thing. We can redeem it again in the future."

Zhao Hanzhang reached out and took it, holding it in his hand, "Okay."

With this jade pendant, Zhao Hanzhang's burden was instantly lighter. She handed the jade pendant to Zhao Ju and asked him to take it to the city to pawn it early tomorrow morning. "Remember, it is a living pawn. You can use your identity to retaliate." My name is fine, too. I’ll go and ask around. Is there a big caravan coming from somewhere recently?”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Mr. Ji can't be silent with so many people and property. He set off earlier than us, and he also walked through the west gate. He just escaped the chaos and should have arrived in Runan earlier than us. That’s it.”

But Runan is very big. In addition to Xiping and Shangcai, there are five counties. No one knows where he went.

But she felt that with Mr. Ji's intelligence, he would not be too far away from Xiping and Shangcai. Xiping had Wubao and Shangcai had her largest dowry.

If he hadn't come to her door after Zhao Changyu was buried, then she would have to consider the outcome of the accident.

Ji Ping's family and children are all in the hands of Mr. Ji. If Mr. Ji cannot be found, the people under her will be upset.

While Zhao Hanzhang was struggling to make ends meet by pawning his fiancé's jade pendant, Mr. Ji was intoxicated with others in the Chu Pavilion.

After getting the merchant who was pestering him drunk, Mr. Ji also took the wine bottle and shook it out. When he entered the room reserved by his chief, he put away the drunkenness on his face and put the wine bottle on the table next to him. , sat down cross-legged, "Is there any news?"

"The news about Shangcai hasn't come back yet, but someone from Xiping came back today and said that the family members of the Zhao family went to Shangcai early this morning. I heard that they were going to welcome Master Lang's coffin."

Mr. Ji couldn't help but sit up straight, "People have arrived in Shangcai? Then why can't we receive any news in Aoyang?"

He frowned, "Whether we are going to Xiping or Shangcai, we have to pass through Aoyang. I asked you to guard the intersection. Didn't you find anyone?"

Bu Qu hesitated and said, "Maybe they didn't leave from Aoyang?"

Instead of coming from Aoyang, how about going around a big bend and entering from behind?

But thinking about the current war in Luoyang and the scattered troops, Mr. Ji hesitated. It was not impossible. After all, if chaos broke out, it was possible to run anywhere to avoid the pursuing soldiers.

"First send someone to Shangcai to inquire. If there is any news, report immediately."

"yes."

"Is there any news about the rebels and the Huns?"

"Only the refugees who fled brought some information. I heard that they were still robbing things in Luoyang City."

Mr. Ji couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. Luoyang was going to be in trouble. Fortunately, they had taken a step early, and fortunately Sanniang and the others escaped smoothly.
