Chapter 299
Mo Xiancheng was waiting for news from her in the room, and when he saw her coming in, he hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did you find out clearly?"

Before entering the room, Mrs. Mo looked to both sides, but she didn't see anyone else. After entering, she closed the door, walked to Mo Xiancheng's side, and said in his ear: "Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Luo didn't deny or confirm, but I guess It must be Lord Wei, you can't be wrong."

Long dead gray hair, stern face and dull eyes, who else would there be in the entire Daqing Dynasty besides the powerful minister Wei Que with this kind of appearance?

Mo County Prime Minister was puzzled: "Master Wei is not in Shangjing to guard the capital, what is he doing in Yi County?"

Mrs. Mo gave him a blank look, and said: "You are stupid, isn't Mrs. Luo engaged to him? What's so strange about him taking time to see his wife who has never been married?"

When Mo Xiancheng heard the words, he stared at her and said: "The lady's knowledge is just shallow. Mr. Wei is in charge of the left and right Shenwuwei. Without his approval, how can he go out of Beijing so easily."

Mrs. Mo received a cold reception from Mrs. Fang just now, and she felt a little unhappy, she said: "Yes, I am not a woman with little knowledge, since the master despises my ignorance, I will go to Mr. Luo when I encounter such a thing. The real question is, what do you want me to do to talk to Mrs. Luo?"

The county magistrate Mo was not born in a family, and his family background was quite ordinary. It was only after he won the Juren and married Mrs. Mo, who had a lot of money, that he really prospered. Even the money for the exam was funded by Mrs. Luo. Very kind, seeing Mrs. Mo annoyed at this moment, she hurriedly put down her posture to coax her: "Madam is not knowledgeable, Madam is born with a pair of discerning eyes, if not, how could she be the only husband among so many suitors? "

Madam Mo was coaxed by him and laughed again: "Slick tongue."

Mo Xiancheng said again: "Master Luo has married such a noble family, and the future must be worry-free. Madam may as well go to the inner house from time to time in the future to get close to Madam Luo."

Mrs. Mo's face was full of reluctance. Asking her to put down her figure to curry favor with a country woman like Fang's really made her a little self-deprecating.

Mo Xiancheng knew that her little hypocrisy was committed again, so he coaxed her with good words: "It's also my fault that when I was appointed as an official the year before last, I despised this place for being poor and dilapidated. In the future, it may be difficult for her to make further progress in her official career, I know Madam has been wronged, and for the sake of my husband, Madam bear with it."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Mo was very ashamed: "Where can I blame the master, at that time the master wanted to take up the post, I just blamed my self-willedness, and refused to let the master come, since it is for the master's future, even if I feel wronged, it doesn't matter. of."

Mo Xiancheng loves her such a sensible temper. He hugged her and made out with her, then straightened his clothes and said: "Master Wei has come to the county office. As the county magistrate, I want to see her anyway. You don't have to wait for me for lunch today."

When Mo Xiancheng went out, he happened to bump into Luo Tiandu who was looking for Luo Baisu for dinner.

"Little lady." Mo Xiancheng saluted Luo Tiandu three steps away.

Luo Tian turned his head and said with a smile: "So it's Master Mo, the weather is so hot, Master Mo wants to go out?"

Mo Xiancheng hurriedly said: "It happens that I have something to report to Mr. Luo, but I just went to the lobby and did not see Mr. Luo. I heard someone said that Mr. Luo is coming this way, so I rushed here."

Luo Tiandu said: "It's a coincidence, I happened to be looking for my father on something."

In fact, the meal was ready, and Fang asked her to call Luo Baisu for dinner, but the family members were a little afraid of Wei Que, and would not want to contact him unless it was necessary, and Luo Tian didn't even bother to order others, so he simply came here by himself. It's just that she doesn't like Mo Xiancheng and his wife, and feels that they are too snobbish, so she refuses to say that she actually came to call Luo Baisu for lunch, for fear that Mo Xiancheng will come over for lunch after hearing about it.

Luo Baisu and Mr. Feng were trying out the windmill and the threshing machine. Because there were no ears of rice at home, Luo Baisu only briefly explained the working principle of the threshing machine.

Mr. Feng was overjoyed, and said a few good words: "The people in Daqing have always only used grain barrels to thresh, which is inefficient. When harvesting, they often compete with God for time. With this threshing machine, why not Worrying about the difficulty of harvesting food, Mr. Luo, you have done a great deed that benefits the country and the people."

Luo Baisu's face showed embarrassment, and he didn't dare to take the credit, saying: "It's all Mr. Wu's credit, I don't dare to be self-absorbed."

He was right, the threshing machine windmill had nothing to do with him, it was all thanks to Luo Tiandu and Old Man Wu, but Luo Baisu pushed all the credit to Old Man Wu in order to protect Luo Tiandu, yes Luo Tian didn't even mention half a word.

"Father, Master Mo said that he has something to report." Luo Tiandu interrupted them.

Luo Baisu first glanced at Mr. Feng, who waved his hand and said, "Lord Luo, business is important."

Luo Baisu then said: "Lord Mo, let's go to the study to talk."

Mo Xiancheng just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Wei Que for a few words to build a relationship. If there is any business, he hurriedly said: "It's not something important, just take care of some small things. Since the Lord has guests, I will come back later in the afternoon." report back."

Luo Baisu nodded, and said smoothly: "That's very good. After lunch, you can report back."

Mo Xiancheng's face turned blue and white, and he deeply felt that Luo Baisu was too incapable of being a human being. He deliberately picked this time, hoping that Luo Baisu would invite him to have lunch together, and he would also find an opportunity to talk to Wei Que. , Luo Baisu didn't speak at all.

Luo Tian was very happy when he saw that Mo Xian Cheng ate the turtle, and said crisply and authentically: "Father, lunch is ready, mother asked me to come and fetch you to eat."

Luo Baisu then made a "please" gesture and said: "If you two don't dislike it, you can have some simple tea and light meals at the house." Because outsiders were present, it was difficult for Luo Baisu to address Mr. Feng directly.

Mr. Feng laughed, and said very straightforwardly: "Let's go, even if Lord Luo doesn't invite you, we have to try Mrs. Luo's craftsmanship."

Just now when Luo Baisu led Mr. Feng and Wei Que into the yamen, the county magistrate Mo happened to see him from the second gate, and only saw Wei Que in his eyes. Yi County opened up trade routes, so it is very close to the county government. Since the opening of the market, there are indeed many people of this kind who have come to Yi County. At this moment, when the old gentleman spoke, he felt very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. over average.

He looked up at Mr. Feng secretly, and felt strange again.

Although he was a Jinshi of Shangke and had participated in the imperial examination, he was standing far away at that time, and the emperor was so majestic that he could not allow others to watch at will. Seeing the bright yellow clothes, he didn't see what the emperor looked like.

"Master Luo, these two are..." He summoned up his courage and asked.

Luo Tian looked at him with pity. He had seen an official fan, but he had never seen such an official fan.Luo Baisu left it so clean, but he didn't want to reveal Wei Que's identity. If he was sensible, he wouldn't know what to do, but he insisted on moving forward. He really didn't hit the wall. The heart is not dead.

Wei Que glanced at him with those lifeless eyes, and Mo Xiancheng felt that those eyes were like knives, and they were painful when they fell on the person, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Luo Baisu and Wei Que entered the house, staring anxiously, but now they dare not even mention the plan they had made earlier.

After entering the house, Mr. Feng said, "Who was that just now?"

Luo Baisu replied, "The magistrate of this county."

Mr. Feng let out a "Oh", and said again when he remembered something, "I said, he looks familiar, I remember he got the third class in the Shangke Palace, and he was born as a fellow Jinshi, right?"

Wei Que replied with that indifferent voice: "Yes."

Mr. Feng said again: "There was someone who was appointed the year before last but claimed that he would not be sick. Is he the one?"

Luo Baisu couldn't answer these words, so he kept silent, Wei Que said coldly: "It's him."

Mr. Feng smiled and stopped talking.

For some reason, Luo Tian felt chills all over his body, and felt that Mr. Feng's smile just now was more creepy than Wei Que's sneer.

Sure enough, the people who survived in that imperial city were not simple people. The skill of this hand-stove's pure green smile on the skin but not on the flesh is enough to be admired. Compared with him, even Wei Que, who is covered in coldness, looks like a cuter.

Fang had already set the dinner table, seeing that they had finally come, she hurriedly greeted them to take a seat.

The dishes were fried by Luo Tiandu, because Wei Que likes to eat meat, and he doesn't like meat, so today's lunch is mainly meat dishes, and thinking that Mr. Feng is getting old, it might be too greasy to digest, and another I made a few refreshing and easy-to-digest foods, plus cold and pickled vegetables, and put a dozen of them.

There are outsiders here, and the Luo family has always prepared two tables. Mr. Feng swept the table and saw only three sets of bowls and chopsticks, so he understood, and said: "Lord Luo, we are not outsiders, so don't be so polite, Luo Madame and the two young ladies should also sit at the table together."

Luo Baisu said to Fang Shi: "Since Mr. Feng has already said it, you can use it with the children."

Fang agreed, added four more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and sat down with Luo Tiandu and his siblings.

After Mr. Feng took his seat, he didn't do anything. Luo Tian was amused. Knowing that people of their status are particular and well prepared, he took the plate containing melons and fruits and said, "It's hot weather, Mr. Feng, eat something first." Melons and fruits quench your thirst."

The melons and fruits were cut into pieces and placed neatly on the plate, with a silver stick inserted into the top piece.

Wei Que forked a piece and ate it first, then moved the fruit plate to Mr. Feng, and said, "Mr. Feng, please."

Only then did Mr. Feng pick up the silver pick, forked a piece, put it in his mouth, and said, "It's really fresh."

I picked it from my own garden and hung it in the well to freeze it all morning. Of course it was fresh.

After eating one piece, Mr. Feng saw that everyone in the Luo family was staring at him, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "Everyone is watching what I do, so you eat too."

Only then did Luo Baisu say to Fang Shi, "You guys can eat too."

Halfway through eating, Fang suddenly said: "There is still soup simmering on the stove, Xiaodu, you and I can bring it here."

Luo Tian was baffled, she prepared the dishes and they were all served, so where is the soup?
