Chapter 396 Let the children follow

Lu Tong pounded the table excitedly, "What a good idea! I heard that the Zhu family sells some grain on the ice sheet. I didn't expect you to have a way. If I had known this, I wouldn't have to deal with the Zhu family all the time."


The reason why he was willing to associate with Mr. Zhu was because he saw Mr. Zhu's money-making channels, but the other party was cunning and cunning, and he didn't let go for so long. His patience was almost exhausted, and he never expected that he would not be able to find a way out of his iron shoes. No effort required.

Shen Yi smiled and said, "If Mr. Lu decides, I can personally take people on another trip to the ice field."

"Then I'll trouble Mr. Shen."

Lu Tong solved a problem on his mind and was in a good mood, so he ordered two more hard dishes.

After the two of them finished eating, they went to Hangzhou.

The manager of Yaxing obviously recognized Lu Tong and came to entertain him immediately.

Lu Tong introduced: "This is the newly appointed County Chief Shen of Zhaohua County. Please bring all the houses for sale and rent in the city to show us."

The steward came over with a lot of brochures, and Shen Yi felt dizzy when he saw it, "I only want a house near the county government office. It's best to have a spacious house with a garden, but it can't have a pool."

"Why is this?" Lu Tong was a little confused.

There is a pool in the courtyard, which is called gathering wealth. Very few people do not want a yard with a pool.

Shen Yi smiled helplessly and said: "My twins are very sturdy. If there is a pool at home, I'm afraid something will happen sooner or later."

The steward quickly said: "Sir, this is easy to do. We can fill up the pond. It only takes a day or two. If you agree, there are a few places you can see."

After listening to the steward's description, Shen Yi immediately decided to choose a large house with three entrances, just next to the county government office and just a few steps away.

There is indeed a large pond in the garden. No one has taken care of it over the years. The water is half dry and the water plants are lush. It will take some time to clean it up.

The county government official volunteered to help Shen Yi and cleared out a lot of messy things piled aside. Judging from the progress, it would take three or four days to finish.

Shen Yide was busy with the county government affairs and could not take care of the yard, so he had to send a message to Su Tai asking her to come and help for a few days.

Su Tai was watching the twins writing at home. Shen Yuezhang and Shen Congrong were sitting in the courtyard each holding a book and reading with gusto. There was a bowl of double skin milk, a plate of flower cakes and a pot of tea beside them.

It's pleasant to look at.

After writing for two-quarters of an hour, the twins raised their heads to look at their brother and sister. Feeling aggrieved, they secretly glanced at Su Tai, who was sitting calmly beside them, and swallowed the words that came to their lips.

Tears secretly fell down without daring to make a sound.

Shen Congrong saw it from the corner of his eye, rolled his eyes, and said slowly, "Mom, did you pass by your aunt's house when you went to Qiongzi? Isn't the ice field fun?"

Shen Yuezhang put down the tea cup and looked at Su Tai with interest, "I heard that the ice fields are bitterly cold and the herders there live in no fixed places. Is this true?"

"Ahem, cough, cough," Su Tai choked on her saliva and looked at the two children in confusion, "Who did you listen to?"

The two of them looked in the direction of the workshop.

"Not only Mr. Chu, but also my uncle told us this before. He said that because of our help, not all herdsmen can earn so much money." Shen calmly answered seriously.

Su Tai opened her mouth, deeply aware of the horror of inherent knowledge, and thought about how to explain it to the two children.

At this moment, the wooden stake rang.

She hurried over and opened the door.

As soon as the officer saw Su Tai, he immediately clasped his fists and bowed, "Mrs. Shen, Mr. Shen bought a house in the county. He is going to the ice field in the next few days. He has no time to take care of it. I specially asked the young man to come over and tell you that you can go to the county for a few days. .”

"He is going to the ice field again? Do you know why?"

The government official smiled and shook his head, "Young ones don't know." Su Tai thanked the government official and turned back to ask the four children to pack their luggage. "We are going to stay in the county for a few days. You can bring the things you need. Don't bring anything you don't need." ”

Shen Yuezhang was overjoyed, "Mom, you are finally willing to take us out."

The corner of Su Tai's mouth twitched slightly, and she said with a smile: "It's not that I'm willing to take you out, but if I don't take you, I'm afraid those two demon kings will really tear down the house if I turn around!"

Since we are going on a long journey, we must entrust the livestock at home.

Qi Yan and Wei Daya are the most suitable candidates. They are currently helping in the Guokui Workshop. Just give them a shout.

After arranging things, the family of five got on the carriage and rushed to the county seat.

The yamen sent the person all the way to the county yamen and handed him over to Shen Yi himself.

Su Tai gratefully gave him a tael of silver and waited until the official left before asking about the situation here.

Shen Yi thought about the yard and his face turned a little dark, "Daughter-in-law, I thought that the pool in that yard had been abandoned for a long time and was more difficult to clean up. It shouldn't be a difficult task. Who knew that the more we clean up in the past two days, the bigger the problem will become. The pool is simply It just smells so bad that I feel sick when I get close to it

People next door came to inquire, saying that our family was piling manure in the yard! I couldn't explain clearly. Mr. Lu suggested that I just fill it with soil, but I felt bad just thinking about the stench below the house we live in.

I heard that the owner of the house in front of him sold the house after losing money in business. Do you think it will be unlucky for the house? ”

Ever since he learned about Su Tai's ability, he had no doubts about the strange power and chaos.

Su Tai raised her eyebrows and asked in a lowered voice: "How much money did you spend on it?"

"Three hundred taels."

Su Tai frowned, "Three hundred taels is not too much, it's still acceptable. I'll go over and see what's going on later. The officer said you're going to the ice field?"

Shen Yi nodded, "That's what happened."

Then he told Su Tai everything about the situation.

Shen Yuezhang and Shen Congrong stared at Shen Yi expectantly from the side, and Shen Yi couldn't ignore the burning gaze.

He sighed secretly, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Shen Yuezhang hurriedly stepped forward to please Shen Yi, pinched his shoulders and beat his back. Shen Congrong squatted down and beat his legs.

Shen Yi's body tensed up, as if he were facing a formidable enemy, "You're just trying to be courteous for nothing, you're either committing adultery or stealing, what are your intentions?"

The two siblings looked at each other and smiled, and shouted loudly, "We also want to go to the ice field!"

"No!" Shen Yi stood up without thinking, shaking his head and waving his hands, "There are many jackals, tigers and leopards on the ice field. Your mother and I were attacked by a leopard. It's too dangerous to take you with us."

"I'm not afraid, I can protect myself." Shen Congrong clenched his fists.

Shen Yi's face darkened, "I won't do it if I say no. Dad is here to do serious things, not for fun."

Shen Yuezhang was about to cry, and her tears were like broken pearls, falling as soon as she said it.

Shen Yi was angry and helpless, so she had to ask Su Tai for help, "Daughter-in-law, please tell me, why can't these two children understand Haolai!"

Su Taiqian smiled and said: "Actually, I also support them."

She shrank her neck guiltily.

Shen Yi: "."
