"Father, why haven't those imperial doctors come?" Ma Haoxuan asked in confusion.

According to the schedule, it was time to come, but there was no news for a long time.

"Do you think I really want to hire an imperial physician?" Ma Xingzhi smiled, "Don't worry, let them make a mess first, and then let them go out after they make a mess, wouldn't it be better?"

"Father, human life is at stake! These two people are our acquaintances after all, we can't just ignore death, right?" Ma Haoxuan was at a loss, it turned out that his father did not go to the capital to ask for an imperial physician, that is to say, people in the capital He didn't even know that Marquis Zhongyi was still on Qianjiao Island.

well!Why are there so many things in these ancient people's minds? Even if it is his own father, he still feels a little strange. He directly escorts him to the capital, or sends someone directly to the capital to talk about it and it's over?

Why bother?

As far as he knew, the Marquis of Zhongyi could not be found in the capital, and the pot had already been blown up.

But this father said that he was also sending people to look for Hou Zhongyi...

"Don't worry, as far as I know, the people who have come to look for the Marquis of Zhongyi are both open and secret. It's hard to distinguish friends from enemies. I did this only to protect them." Ma Xingzhi said with a smile on his lips. Looking at him disapprovingly, "Let's keep them here to rest for two more days. This is done as a landlord. It's okay. I'll have something to say in the future."

At this time, a servant came in in a panic and said anxiously: "The master is not good, those two people have disappeared!"

"What?" Ma Xingzhi's face changed drastically, "When did it happen?"

Ma Haoxuan was also taken aback.

"It was still there half an hour ago..." The man said cautiously, "But I went again just now. Only then did I realize that the person is gone!"

"You bastards." Ma Xingzhi said bitterly, and hurried out, Ma Haoxuan followed closely behind him.

In the dark night, a small boat quietly sailed away from the shore and headed for the vast night.

"Master Hou, why has this man been in a coma all this time?" A low voice came from the cabin.

"He was seriously injured, and he took some tranquilizing medicine. That's why he fell asleep all the time, it doesn't matter."

"Then why did Lord Hou not contact us for so long? It made it hard for us to find a way out."

"Because I want to stay and test that person to see what he really wants to do?"

"Who?"

"It's that Ma Xingzhi."

"The subordinate understands. Lord Hou suspects that he is the same person back then."

"That's right. Now, we are in the light and he is in the dark. We must be extra careful in everything."

"But Lord Hou left without saying goodbye today, will it arouse his suspicion?"

"Hitting grass can scare the snake, he should also surface!"

"Well. After so many years, the matter should be settled!"

The night is getting darker.

Qianjiao Island has gradually been shrouded in a cloud of mist at some point.Looking from a distance, it is hazy.

Although Longtan Village and Qianjiao Island are only separated by a piece of sea, the climate is different.

Longtan Village is usually foggy in the morning and dispersed at sunrise.

When Lin Xueman woke up, Yang had already got up and returned to the old house, and she was left alone, sleeping until the sun was high.I've been really sleepy lately.

After getting up and washing, he took out the burden.Carefully check the bank notes and house deeds in the cloth bag that Lin Haisheng gave her.

Her name is all on it, it seems that the house is indeed the dowry that this father has prepared for her long ago.

5000 taels of bank notes, plus a new house, this dowry is really generous for her.

Right now, Fushun said to let her wait, waiting for that Prince Rong to intercede with the emperor, but what if Prince Rong crossed the river and demolished the bridge, no matter what?

Unexpectedly, Lin Haisheng, who had been an official for many years, would end up in such a fate.

As the saying goes, when the general is away, the emperor's order is not acceptable, so even if you receive a secret order from Prince Rong, you should assess the situation and make your own judgment, instead of blindly sticking to the military order.

If Prince Rong doesn't plan to help, then he can only rely on Fushun and Xueyi's grandfather to manage the capital, and all of this needs money, and she can't just sit by and watch, she can't take the dowry and just ignore this father, maybe, When her father was about to leave, the money he gave her was also to leave him a way out...

With complicated emotions, she collected the bank note and house deed, and carefully put them in the hidden compartment, but she didn't feel much joy in her heart. She would rather not have this dowry than her father to do such a thing...

Regarding that Ma Xingzhi, Lin Xueman couldn't figure out the intention of this person for a while, but she didn't think it was as serious as Yang's thought. What's the matter?

Forget it, don't think about it, when the time comes to test and ask Ma Haoxuan, it's over.

Right now, she is most worried about Xiao Chengyu. She hopes that he can come back soon, share the joy of being a first-time parent with her, and wait for the birth of this child together...

She walked out of the yard, looked at the chickens in the coop, and saw that the chickens had grown a lot, picked up the chicken food on the side, and fed the chickens, and then heard Mrs. Yang calling her to eat in the old house.

Last night, Yang said that she was not feeling well recently and asked her to have dinner with them. No matter what time and space, pregnant women will always receive special treatment.

Then she washed her hands, breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't think about anything else. It's the right thing to do right now, to maintain a good mood and raise the baby with peace of mind. She walked into the old house with ease.

After eating, he sat on the kang and chatted with Mrs. Yang for a few words.

Shen Shi and Yu Shixiang walked in.

"Sister and sister, did you see Uncle Wang when you went to the capital this time? He hasn't come for a long time." Chen said with a smile, "Last time he bought dried fish from us, and the price was higher than that in Longtan Town. , we dried some more and planned to let him take it with him when he comes.”

"Exactly!" Yu said with a smile, "We did the math, and the price of drying dried fish is higher, and the storage time is also longer, which is more suitable than selling fresh fish."

"Sister-in-law and sister-in-law, I went to the capital in a hurry this time, and I didn't see Uncle Wang." Lin Xueman smiled at the two of them, "Last time he said, come back in two months, I think it will be soon!"

"Your Uncle Wang now has his own shop in the capital, and you no longer just deliver goods to people, so the number of times you come and go is less." Yang shi looked around at the three daughter-in-laws in front of him while weaving.

"It would be great if he came here often. There are many people in the village who want to dry fish for him to sell in the capital!" Shen stroked her clothes and said, "Right now, although the fish market has returned to its original The price, but there are too many fish sellers, but none of them can sell at a higher price, and each one is lower than the other. In the end, it’s not that I have brought down the price myself.”

"So, we plan to withdraw from the stall from next month, dry the fish at home, and dry the seaweed when it's cold, and let Uncle Wang take it to the capital to sell it, just like our younger brothers and sisters." Mrs. Yu Also hurriedly echoed.

It seems that the two of them came to ask after discussing it.

"Then we have to wait for your Uncle Wang to come, but I don't know why he can come." Yang sighed softly, with a helpless expression, and looked up at Lin Xueman, "It takes two days to get here from the capital, right?"

"Well, it's closer by water." Lin Xueman replied.

Lin Xueman looked at them and sighed helplessly, and his heart moved. Now that he has money in his hand, he should do something for this family. At the beginning, he came to Xiao's family empty-handed. Although there are many Xiao family members and their relationships are complicated, who Nor did he make irresponsible remarks on this matter.

There is also Xiao Chengyu, who is not a child of this family, but grew up carefree at home. Brothers Xiao Chengshan and Xiao Chenghai obviously knew this secret, but they didn't reveal it.

As for Yang Shi and Xiao Jingzhi, they not only brought Xiao Chengyu up through hard work, but they were also his lifesavers.

Right now, she is pregnant and is not a member of the family, but her father-in-law and mother-in-law are still very happy, and they don't treat them as outsiders.

Just, what to do?

"By the way, brother and sister, do you still accept those little yellow croakers? People in the village have been asking these days." Shen asked again.

"Take it, take it the same as before." Lin Xueman thought for a while, and then said, "Sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, how about this, you first bring the dried fish at home to me, and the price will still be the price that Uncle Wang gave last time , I will take it for him first."

"Really? That's great, what about the others?" Yu asked again with a smile on his face.

"Others have to wait first, because my house is limited and I can't keep so many fish." Lin Xueman smiled at them, "They have to wait for Uncle Wang to come."

"Then, thank you brother and sister." The two walked out the door with smiles on their faces.

"Daughter-in-law, what if your Uncle Wang doesn't come if you take those fish?" Yang looked at her worriedly. The son ran away, but his wife was unwilling, saying that he had spent most of his life on the sea all year round, and she did not want to let his son continue to follow his old path."

"Mother, it's okay. Anyway, those fish can be stored for a long time, and the two of them won't be able to dry them much. I'll keep them for Uncle Wang! Besides, I have so many small yellow croakers at home to be canned, and I have to wait for Uncle Wang to pick them up." He went to the capital." Lin Xueman said.

"I see, you want to help them." Yang looked at her meaningfully, "Daughter-in-law, you are overthinking."

"Mom, I just want to do something for this family. Now, I'm not in good condition, so I can't clean up those small fish like before. In a few months, those seaweed will be mined, and I can't continue to go to sea. Picking seaweed, there must be something to do, you can't just sit at home and eat the mountain, as long as you have the goods in hand, you will never be afraid."

The two were talking, when they saw a young man walking in hastily: "Master, it's not good, the Qingyun porridge shop opposite Wutong Academy was smashed." (To be continued.
