Chapter 539

When the new emperor came to power, all the people celebrated the tax exemption for one year, which was a great happy event for the people, but the officials held their faces one by one.

They had no way to get money from the common people's land. The emperor also changed his way to take the silver from them and use it as the Treasury.

Rong Jin is gentle in character and means, but she doesn't procrastinate. In private, she asks people to send all the money that corrupt officials are greedy for. He just needs to wait for those corrupt officials to spend money to buy peace.

Hearing that Rong Jin was doing this, the emperor couldn't help thinking that the new emperor had chosen the right one.

In the past, emperors were willing to retire only when they died, and let a few princes toss about casually. Whoever had the ability would be the emperor, but the supreme Emperor didn't think so. He thought that the emperor had a kind heart, which would win the hearts of the people, so that the country could be prosperous and strong.

In the twinkling of an eye, spring is coming.

This year, Lin Guyu asked people to plant all the corn. There were too many fields. There were not enough corn seeds, so they planted others.

Chi hang sat in front of his desk, looking at the account book in his hand and calculating carefully. Then he looked up at Lin Guyu, "there is no war in the north, and all the grain of the army comes from the imperial court. Our family finally has money."

Lin Guyu put the tea cup in his hand next to Chi hang, and raised a faint radian at the corner of his mouth. He said slowly, "now Xiaoxue is seven months pregnant, and Xiaohua has been pregnant for three months. I don't have any available hands. I want to choose two suitable servant girls."

Chi hang put the account book aside, with a faint smile on his face, "it's true that they got married. It's more or less inconvenient. It's just that it's OK today. Let's go and have a look there."

"Good." Lin Guyu wanted to buy servant girls at the door earlier. The servant girls who take care of the children at home are all good. They are all promoted to first-class servant girls by her, but there are no suitable ones around her. She doesn't need to consider the rest of the servant girls in the house.

Lin Guyu wrapped tightly, followed Chi hang, and walked toward the teeth of the people in the west of the city.

Seeing Chi hang and Lin Guyu enter her yard, Mrs. Xu's face is even more smiling. She helps all the little girls to cheer up. Her handkerchief shakes slightly and walks to them with a smile.

"Mr. Chi and Mrs. Chi, are you going to buy people?" Xu's mother-in-law gave a salute first and then asked with a smile.

The servant girls in the yard stood up and looked at Lin Guyu and Chi hang.

The name of Chi Guogong has been spread all over the world for a long time. The Chi family is well treated. All the servant girls want to go in one by one, but the Chi family doesn't want anyone.

Hearing Xu's words, Lin Guyu's face was lightly smiling and nodded, "well, I'm going to buy two servant girls."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly led Lin Guyu to the yard, looked back at the neat ten servant girls, and said solemnly, "all of them stand honestly for me. Now it's time for you to be chosen. You will not be wronged in my small place in the future."

It's not necessary for Mrs. Xu to say that the servant girls all know that as long as they can work in Chi's house, they don't have to worry about food and clothing.

With this thought, the servant girls stood more upright and energetic.

Lin Guyu's eyes looked at the servant girls. Seeing that they were all good-looking, he raised his feet and walked towards them. He looked at them carefully one by one.

There is no smell on the body, even the fingers are clean.

Chi hang stood aside and glanced at the servant girls. Then all his eyes fell on Lin Guyu, who would never leave.

Lin Guyu walked again and thought that these servant girls were good, but she only needed two big servant girls around her.

The brow lightly wring, Lin Gu Yu helplessly sighed a breath, still really don't know to choose what kind of good.

Hesitating to Chi Hang's side, Lin Guyu lowered his voice, "brother Chi hang, what kind of land do you think we should choose?"

"Choose one who can read." Chi hang said faintly, "you can't be busy with the medical school. You can ask the maid to help."

Lin Guyu smiles, holding a handkerchief and covering his lips lightly, "if you don't say I forgot, just choose according to the appearance of Xiaoxue and Xiaohua."

"Yes." Chi Hang knows that Lin Guyu is reluctant to give up small paintings and snow.

When Xiaohua got married, Lin Guyu gave away a house, a few acres of thin farmland, and a lot of valuable gifts, which was better than Xiaoxue.

Lin Guyu's eyes fell on Mrs. Xu and said with a smile, "steward, do these servant girls know how to read and write?"

On hearing Lin Guyu's words, Mrs. Xu pulled out the girl in the green dress who was standing at the back with a smile, "this girl's family has committed a crime, and she is just an official. That's why she was sent here. Her name is Zhao Yue."

Lin Guyu's eyes looked at Zhao Yue's body and saw that she bowed her head respectfully. Seeing that she didn't like to talk, she nodded slightly, "well, that's her."

Zhao Yue suddenly raises her eyes, kneels on the ground and kowtows to Lin Guyu.

"Get up, there's no need to do such a big ceremony." Lin Guyu said, stretching out her hand to pull Zhao Yue up, with a faint smile on her lips, and slowly said, "in the future, as long as you do what I tell you."

If the maid in the whole capital is the happiest, it's the Chi family. As long as she can climb to the big maid, she doesn't have to worry about the rest of her life. Originally, Zhao Yue thought that her life would be over, but she didn't want to meet Lin Guyu. She secretly thought that she must serve Lin Guyu well.

Lin Guyu picked another two girls who looked honest, and another one who was clever. There were four girls in total. After paying the money, he took them out with him.

The rest of the servant girls stood pitifully in the same place, but they tried to get into Chi's house.

Just as they got back to Chi's house, they saw a luxurious carriage parked outside the government house.

Is there a guest?

Chi hang and Lin Guyu take a look at each other. Generally, people who come to the door will give the invitation in advance. It seems that no one will come today.

As soon as he entered the mansion, the housekeeper welcomed him.

"Master and madam, here comes Huo Qishan, the young master of Huo's villa." The housekeeper said respectfully, "I'm waiting for you in the side hall."

Huo's villa, Chi hang remembers that this villa is a force in the river and the lake, and has never been involved with the people in the court hall. How did you come here today?

Lin Guyu looked back at the servant girls behind him, then looked at the housekeeper in front of him with a smile, and said with a smile, "housekeeper, these four servant girls are new to me. I'll remember to take them to clean them up and send them to Xiaoxue."

"Yes." The housekeeper found a small servant girl and sent all the four to the backyard.

Chi hang and Lin Guyu walk towards the side hall. From a distance, they see a young man in his early twenties sitting on a chair drinking tea.

When the man saw Chi hang and Lin Guyu coming in, he stood up and saluted them respectfully, "Mr. Chi, how are you, madam Chi? I'm Huo Qishan."

Chi Hang's eyes looked at Huo Qishan's face for a while, and his brows twisted slightly. Looking at those eyes, he was inexplicably familiar.

"Sit down, please." Chi hang said, calmly entertaining.

Huo Qishan sat quietly, glancing at Chi hang and Lin Guyu's face. Then he looked at Chi hang and said frankly, "Duke Chi, Huo Qishan is from the river. I'm here just for two people. I want to redeem those two people."

When Chi hang heard what Huo Qishan said, he couldn't help but remind himself that when he came to the capital for such a long time and talked with others, he would always keep one more thought, for fear that he would be cheated by others.

But Huo Qishan is different. He goes straight to Chi Hang's taste.

"Who does Mr. Huo want? I don't know if there are these two people in the mansion. If there are, we won't object as long as those two people don't object." Chi hang looks at Huo Qishan with a smile and says slowly.

"Well, my younger brother and my younger sister are lost. Today, I'm here to redeem my younger brother and sister." Huo Qishan has a faint smile on his lips.

Huo?

Listening to this surname, Lin Guyu feels a little familiar, and suddenly remembers that he saved Huo Qiming and Huo Yaner a long time ago.

Is Huo Qishan's younger brother and sister Huo Qiming and Huo Yaner?

Lin Guyu now pretends to know nothing. He reaches for the tea cup and takes a sip. Then he puts the cup on the table.

"Well," Chi hang said, looking at Huo Qishan with a smile, "I'll let the housekeeper come in and help you find out if there are the two people you said."

After saying that, Chi hang yelled to the outside, "housekeeper!"

The housekeeper was waiting outside all the time. Hearing Chi Hang's voice, he ran in in a hurry and looked at Chi hang with a smile. "Master, you call me?"

"Do we have..." Chi hang said, his voice suddenly stuck in his throat, and looked aside at Chi Huo Qishan. "What's your brother's and sister's name, Mr. Huo?"

"Huo Qiming, Huo Yaner." Huo Qishan said respectfully to Chi hang, "please bother Chi Guogong."

The housekeeper got the order and went out in a hurry.

After a while, the housekeeper led Huo Qiming and Huo Yaner to come in from the outside.

When Huo Qishan saw the two of them, his eyes brightened slightly, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help lifting up. He walked forward with a smile, "Qiming, Yan'er?"

When Huo Qiming heard Huo Qishan's voice, he gently twisted his brows, stretched out his hand to pull Huo Yan'er behind him, and looked at Huo Qishan coldly.

Huo Yan'er was timid. He pitifully hid behind Huo Qiming, peeped out a small head and looked at Huo Qishan curiously.

"Master Shan." Huo Qiming frowned and his voice was cold.
