C233 Dark Reflection on Mingwei's Follower (Part II)

Cherry looked at the figure in the mirror. In the prime of his life, he was a woman's tender age, but the person in the mirror was in the darkest of twilight, devoid of any life or vigor. How could she not know that her so-called family treated her like a money cow? How was her life in the Fu family? They had never asked, as long as she could get two taels of silver a month. However, if they really did lose their money, Cherry was afraid of dying of old age in the Fu Family's backyard. No one would think that Cherry had ever visited this world before.

Presumably, Xu Mingwei had already seen the movement of her every month as she delivered items to the door, so she had decided to subsidize it this time? Cherry knew that Granny would have to bring all three of them with her, otherwise not only would Madam be unable to justify herself, but even the servants would laugh at her. However, Xu Mingwei had released word that he would only bring her along. The two who received the news would not be able to sit still in the Fu Clan, and even if they were given ten guts, they would not dare to complain in their wife's courtyard.

"There is always a price for asking others to do things. They can't come here to give me presents, they can't just let them off that easily. "

Thinking about what Xu Mingwei had said to her, Cherry couldn't help but curl up the corner of her lips, packed properly and laid on the bed. Outside the open small window, there was a bright moon hanging by its side.

After leaving the capital, he wondered if the moon was still like the one he saw tonight.

Cherry felt a faint excitement in her heart. She lay in bed for a long time, listening to the sound of the door being knocked twice. Then she fell asleep in a daze.

In the next few days, everyone in Fu Heng's room busily packed their luggage. Everything else was easy to take care of, but what made Xu Mingwei worried was how to deal with the dowry. It would have been great if she had just taken a big lock and placed it in the storage room. However, the farmland store was troublesome and she might not even be able to return to the capital for the new year holiday.

Seeing her frown for the whole morning, the Old Lai family member asked a question and then realized it was for this. He smiled happily and said, "Grandmother is really meticulous. Can't we just hand all of these over to someone else to look after?" Our house cannot be empty. We'll need to leave a few people to watch the yard. "

Xu Mingwei taught her to remind him, and internally cursed herself for being so stupid. Wasn't this the same as the three management wives that her mother had given to Lady Helan?

After calling for an audience, she took out a small box of land deeds and explained to them clearly what kind of businesses were used for their businesses and how many bonuses they had received in the past year; which villages in the outskirts of the capital were hers, and how much they had produced in the four seasons … Old woman Jiang and the rest listened attentively, their hands didn't move. They had already made a note of this in their hearts, smiling as they replied, "Grandmother only needs to be at ease in handing it over to this old servant. If there is any news, the Cao Clan will send it over."

The meaning of these words was to pay the bill and send the silver notes.

Xu Mingwei nodded her head, and said, "Then we will hand over all of the big and small businesses in the capital to you guys to take care of. We will tidy up the courtyard a bit later, and after we leave, we will also lock up for three to five days. With just a single sentence, I'll entrust my entire family to you. "Since the money is for your own use, you can discuss it among yourselves. Just let me know later."

These words caused the three wives' hearts to tremble. It was as if a pile of bright silver had been placed in front of them. Those who didn't dare to put their heart into it immediately nodded their heads in joy and didn't mention anything else.

On the surface, one of them still didn't know why the three wives had been so happy. However, one of them was frowning deeply, and only after seeing that there were no outsiders in the room did he speak to Xu Mingwei, "Grandma, the three of them were left in the capital without anyone supervising them, so even if they are greedy, no one would know about it. When we go back and report that our store's business is poor, we will receive very little silver. Since we're far away from the world, how can we possibly know if what they're saying is true or false? "

Xu Mingwei turned around and laughed, "You want horses to run again, and horses to not eat grass? How can such an easy thing exist in this world? How much I can produce every year, I know. Even if my age is not good, I can still compare it to your Young Master's shop, and it would be easy to tell with a single glance if I'm lying. They weren't stupid. They had the ability to teach their wives how to deliver it to them. In their hearts, they had their own teachings, so they didn't want to overdo it. With these words, they will only pay more attention to the manor's shop. The extra will be theirs. "

Wan Rou finally understood her intention and admired her, "Grandmother is still the one who thinks it through carefully."

Although she did not understand, she still had a proud expression on her face when she heard Wan Rou praising her. She said, "Grandma is smarter than us anyway."

Just one sentence was enough to make Lady Mu smile. Her eyes floated outside the window, where Lam's wife was currently holding onto Jiao Jiao and learning to walk, her eyes darkened with joy, and said to Xu Mingwei: "Grandma, I have to mention one thing. Yesterday, I asked the Lam's wife, I'm afraid she is not willing to part with us. "

"I'll ask her again later. It's good if she can keep it for a few more months. If she really can't leave, she should find a place to change it as soon as possible." Xu Mingwei said.

She was quite satisfied with the Lam's wife. As long as she said those words once, she would be able to remember to never do it again. Furthermore, what was rare was that Jiao Jiao liked her too. Suddenly changing a wet nurse wasn't just a problem that a child couldn't get used to, even they had to hone it again. Not to mention that they would have to travel so far in the future. It wouldn't be good if Jiao Jiao encountered any problems.

Lady Mu was also aware of the advantages and disadvantages of this matter, hence she nodded and continued, "If this matter is not successful, we can first talk to Grandma about it, and if it doesn't work, we can even double the amount of money we gave Lam's wife and let her accompany us on this mission. When the new wet nurse is found, we can send someone to send her back to the capital."

Xu Mingwei did not think of this method, and laughed: "This is the best, to save you from having to worry about one thing."

Afterwards, the Lady Mu came to ask the Lam's wife, and they truly could not part with their family, and did not want to follow Fu Heng's family. After thinking about it for a few times, finally, Lam's wife was not willing to part with this windfall. In just a few months, the main house promised to send her back to the capital after a reliable person came along.

In the end, she still went back to the Xu family to report. Not two days later, Lady Helan sent a wet nurse over, but coincidentally, it was also called Lam's wife. For convenience, the first to come was called Dahran's wife, the last to come was called Lady Xiao Lan.

"If only there was another Lam's wife, I would not know what to call her."

Xu Mingwei told the Lady Xiao Lan to follow the Dahran's wife for a while, so there was no need to do anything else. Fortunately, Dahran's wife was clear in his heart. He understood that he wouldn't be able to snatch her job later on, so he did his best to stay here, and he explained in detail Jiao Jiao Jiao's usual habits and things he needed to pay attention to.

Xu Mingwei watched coldly, and when she mentioned this matter to Master Fang later on, she sighed: "When that couple from her family came over to cause trouble, I thought that Lady Mu had misjudged us and made a decision that was not simple. Now, it seems that she is extremely good. She knows her limits and is willing to work hard, but she won't be able to stay long. When her position has settled down, she will send someone back to the capital. "

The Master Fang laughed, "This is what the saying goes, it's been a long time since people have seen each other's heart. Has Fu Heng been appointed? "

Xu Mingwei shook her head and said: "I still don't know where I am. It's not easy to pack my stuff."

Master Fang calculated the date and frowned, "That's strange, I should have heard by now."

The two of them had only talked about it once during the day, but in the evening, Fu Heng had already brought back some news.

"Pinglu County is also a mining site, although it is not as rich as Big Brother, it is still a safe place to go to. After the appointment documents arrive, they will come down, and all the luggage in the house will have been packed, right? " Fu Heng said as he took off his shoes and socks to soak his feet.

Xu Mingwei nodded and replied, "I've done with what I needed to do. How far is the Pinglu County from here? "How many days will it take for the carriage to leave?"

"A thousand li is quite close. With our strength and our delicate features, I'm afraid we'll have to spend more than half a month on the road." Suddenly, he remembered something and laughed, "I almost forgot to tell you. At that time, Little Uncle's family and Yun Ping will be coming with us."

Xu Mingwei asked curiously, "Where are the Little Uncle and Qiu Bai headed to? And who is Yun Ping? "

Fu Heng laughed involuntarily, "Yun Ping is the person I mentioned to you before, the one who roamed the four seas, the one who belonged to the Nanyang Duan Clan. He returned to the capital a few days ago. It was dark and thin outside, and for the first time I almost didn't recognize it. He had nothing to do in the capital and decided to follow us around. Little Uncle is going to bring Cousin Sister back to her parents' place to take a look.

Only then did Xu Mingwei remember who Duan Yunping was, and nodded, "It will be very lively with people as companions on the road."

"I'll introduce him to you on that day in the capital. It's getting late, you might as well rest a bit earlier." Fu Heng pulled up his blanket and lied down, leaving a spot outside.

Xu Mingwei laid down according to her words, and instantly asked the person behind her to hold her waist tightly, the scorching breath gradually wetting the back of her neck.

"We have to hurry on ahead, don't …"

Xu Mingwei's shattered voice was heartlessly devoured by her... The blanket rose up into a bundle, but she gradually walked down …

The night was still long. Fu Heng licked his lips. He had no heart, at least he had taught her to be unable to leave him.
