Chapter 1112 Geng Zi Juan Jia She Xian Bao
“Huh?!” Qingwen was shy, then shocked, then ecstatic, but she was more grateful to Shen Yixiu.
Although she was sold into the Jia family when she was young, Qingwen's origins are not traceable. First of all, Wu Gui, the wine-loving cook in the Rongguo Mansion, who was called Duoguan, was Qingwen's cousin. This is the easiest clue to start looking for.
Moreover, it was Grandma Lai who bought Qingwen. With Grandma Lai's experience, if she didn't know the details, she would never be able to send her to Jia Mu's room.
It's just that Qingwen was sold into the house when she was just a few years old, and her cousin was brought to Rongguo Mansion for Qingwen's sake. As far as Qingwen knew, her cousin only said that her father said that Qingwen's mother was That is to say, my aunt married in a distant place many years ago, probably to Baoding Prefecture.
That year, there was a disaster in Baoding Prefecture and life could no longer go on. That's why Qingwen's mother took Qingwen to the suburbs of Beijing to join her brother. However, life at her uncle's family was also difficult, so she sold Qingwen to the family through connections. The Duke of Rongguo's Mansion was the one who found Grandma Lai's door.
To enter Jia's house, you don't just have to sell yourself, nor can you just rely on Wu Gui's father as a guarantee. You should go to the place where Qingwen's mother married and inquire about it. After confirming that there is no problem, Qingwen can be bought into the house. And Qingwen's mother went back to Baoding after she got the money.
Wu Gui's father has passed away a long time ago, and Wu Gui doesn't know where his aunt married. He only knows that it was in Yizhou, Baoding Prefecture, but the specific location is not clear.
Feng Ziying did not expect that Shen Yixiu would suddenly pose such a problem to herself, and her eyes fell on Qingwen: "Qingwen, do you want to have children for me, or do you want to find your parents?"
Qingwen knelt down in front of Shen Yixiu, "Grandma, slave..."
"Get up, why are you always kneeling down when you have nothing to do?" Shen Yixiu smiled and pulled Qingwen up, "I was just joking, wouldn't it be possible for you to have children for me without this matter?" Why don't you find your parents for you? Xiangling's mother can be found, so naturally your parents can be found, but it just takes some effort. Now Xiangling's mother is living in the house, you follow me, follow me Master, if your parents can't survive, wouldn't it be a filial piety to take care of them?"
Feng Ziying couldn't help but give Shen Yixiu a thumbs up in her heart. No wonder Qingwen followed Shen Yixiu wholeheartedly. With this method, you can't be convinced even if you don't want to.
"Qingwen, what your grandma said is true, but I was a bit negligent." Feng Ziying also nodded, "I remember you have a cousin in Rongguo Mansion. Does he know where your mother was married?"
"I'm afraid I don't know. I asked, but my cousin said he didn't know. Only my uncle knew. But my uncle passed away a few years ago. I didn't even think about looking for him. I was sold to Rongguo Mansion before I could remember. Here, I can't say how much I miss my family..." Qingwen's eyes were red, her voice was choked, and her fingers twisting the sweat towel turned white from excessive exertion, "It's just that sometimes in Rongguo Mansion I saw Yuanyang, Xiren, Jin Chuaner and the others. They are all very lively during the holidays. If they are walking around, it is inevitable that there will be some ties..."
“Then you said you were bought by Aunt Lai, does Aunt Lai know?” Feng Ziying asked again.
Qingwen hesitated for a moment, "My servant also asked Aunt Lai. Aunt Lai said that she asked someone to go to the Yizhou government office in Baoding to ask if there was such a family. She had a foundation, so I didn't ask any more questions, but The people she entrusted were originally from the Wanping County government office, but they are no longer working. They probably went back to their hometowns and couldn't find anyone. Later, the servants stopped asking."
With the communication methods of this era, you can only ask people to ask questions, and if a link is broken, it will be difficult to repair it. This is normal. It was not a big deal in the first place. At the beginning, Grandma Lai was just It’s just to make sure there’s nothing wrong with Qingwen’s background.
Feng Ziying nodded. If this is the case, it is not impossible to ask.
First, I asked Aunt Lai who the person she was entrusting was. This person should be an official in the Wanping County government office. If he stopped working, he would have returned to his hometown. He was still in Wanping County and was nothing more than a rural person outside the city. It’s just Noma, it’s not difficult to find.
Find someone and ask him to recall who he asked to contact Baoding and Yizhou. In this way, he may be able to find out the root cause. Of course, it does not rule out that one of the middle people is gone, so the connection is broken and it is difficult to investigate. .
“Okay, I understand, this matter is on my mind.” Feng Ziying nodded, “Well, Qingwen is also concerned about my matter, do you understand?”
"What's your business? What's your business?" Qingwen raised her red and swollen eyes and asked doubtfully.
“Hey, it’s about giving birth to sons and daughters.” Feng Ziying said confidently: “It’s not polite to come back without reciprocating. I will find your parents for you, and you will give birth to sons and daughters for me. Isn’t this fair?”
Qingwen was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but stamp her feet: "Grandma, look at me, I'm already a fifth-grade master, and you're still bullying people like this?"
Amid Shen Yixiu's laughter and Qingwen's innocent complaints, Feng Ziying went out happily. It was quite fun to tease Qingwen for a while.
But with the concern of welcoming the Spring Festival, it is not easy to be too disrespectful to the other party.
Seeing Feng Ziying come in, Jia She immediately stroked his beard eagerly and laughed, "My dear nephew, I have heard about your reputation everywhere in the city in the past few days, and I am also very proud of my face."
"Uncle Shi Shi, please don't say that. You have watched me grow up since you were a child. You still don't know how capable I am. It's just because of the times that things happen, and some people have exaggerated them."
"Well, you can't say that. Let's not mention the strategy of opening up the sea. The Western Expedition to suppress the rebellion and the Battle of Qian'an are enough to show that you are a general tiger among our martial arts disciples. The people in Jingying are used to being lazy, so why not I thought that fighting the Mongols was as simple and easy as an ordinary exercise every year, and the shame has reached home. Now every family is wearing sackcloth and mourning, crying to the sky and the earth. Yesterday, some family members went to the Fifth Army Camp to cry."
Here comes the drama.
Feng Ziying has been wondering what Jia She wants to do with her since she entered the house.
This guy is not interested in anything except money, so he shouldn't come to your door to borrow money from him, right? He, Jia Rui and Jia Zhen jointly built the Lai family. He himself gained at least ten thousand to twenty thousand silver. At this time, his pocket should be full. Even if he didn't find it too much money, he wouldn't come to ask him to borrow it. Money is the right thing.
When he mentioned Jingying, Feng Ziying had already realized why this guy was here.
Obviously this guy is not stupid, and he has figured out a way to make a fortune from some of the news he heard last time when he talked to the two brothers.
It's not just about selling houses and shops. After all, the investment is not small. It requires money, and the procedures are complicated. It is not easy for well-informed people to be fooled. In contrast, if we can do something like this in redeeming these Beijing soldiers. If you write some articles, it is really an excellent channel to make profits.
Feng Ziying does not reject this point.
Feng Ziying speculated that Emperor Yonglong would not pay the money. Even if Beijing Wang Shuirong went to the Supreme Emperor to put pressure on Emperor Yonglong, Emperor Yonglong could still contend with the opposition from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the ministers in the court. , especially now is a good time to take the opportunity to take back the power of personnel in the Beijing camp. How can we give in easily?
Even if the imperial court really needs to win over this part of the people later, it will have to wait until the dust of the Beijing camp reorganization is settled.
But I also need to give an explanation to the Inner Khalkha people. It is impossible for Zaisai to maintain such a large group of generals for several months without seeing a penny of money or supplies. Then I am afraid that Zaisai If you can't explain it to the five Nei Khalkha tribes and the Horqin people, they will fall out.
There is a lot of room for maneuver here.
"Uncle Pardon, isn't it enough to wear sackcloth and wear filial piety? As far as I know, in the battle of Santun camp, not many soldiers died in the Beijing camp, only more than a thousand people, and the death of generals was even less..." Feng Ziying frowned brow.
Of course, Jia She didn't mean to say this, but used this topic to guide the next step. After being stunned for a moment, he quickly said: "Yes, but so many people have been captured. Now that the imperial court plans to redeem the soldiers first, Come, but those hundreds of generals and officers are said to have been escorted back to the grassland by the Mongols, so what should we do? The grassland is extremely cold. It is said that the north wind is howling in this winter, and the dripping water turns into ice. How can they survive?"
Feng Ziying seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "Uncle Shi Shi has thought carefully about them, but they are prisoners and it is inevitable to suffer some hardships on the grassland. We can't expect the Mongols to treat them like guests, right? Even if they are my nephew It’s not so shameless to let the Mongolians show mercy to them.”
"Hehe, Uncle Fool came here just to ask the wise nephew a question. How does the court and the emperor consider these people? They are all our martial arts disciples. We can't just watch them tortured to death on the grassland. let's go?"
Jia She rubbed his hands with anticipation on his face. It didn't look like he was thinking about those people, but rather like he was sharpening his knife against pigs and sheep.
Feng Ziying glanced at Jia She and said, "Uncle Shi Shi, what do you want to do?"
“Ziying, please answer Yu Bo’s question first.” Jia She said displeasedly.
"Well, the emperor and the court may have the intention, but they are powerless, or some ministers in the court are unwilling. The performance of the Beijing camp is too disappointing. As for what will happen in the end, it may depend on what happens later, but I'm afraid these generals I’m afraid your family won’t want to do this, right?”
Feng Ziying's words attracted a mysterious smile from Jia She, "Ziying, that's not necessarily the case. There are not enough dirty things within a big family? Maybe some people hope that they will die on the grassland and never come back. Of course, if it is them Close relatives, or those with a stable status in the family, still hope that they can be redeemed, so..."
