Chapter 1028 Letter from Donghai Prefecture
They had never seen so much money at one time, even in the Imperial Doctor's Mansion.
After all, Liu Jiahuai was helping with her family's business, so she wasn't very surprised by the amount of money, but she still sighed: "Aran, you are so courageous that you actually cheated his grandson in Hou Ye's house. Such a large sum of money."
Murong Lingran smiled and said, "Isn't this opportunity brought to the door, I don't need it for nothing, I'll just sell the ginseng, the money from these merchants' families is really lucrative. …”
People: "…"
Murong Zhe said: "That's not what you mean by Brother Jiahuai, what he means is that the Marquis of Ning'an is very jealous of evil, and you used his birthday banquet to cheat his grandson to make money. If it was in the past, he would definitely find us when he knew After all, our family will be miserable by then."
Liu Jiahuai nodded: "Yes, that's what I meant."
Murong Lingran didn't take it seriously and said, "But aren't we all right? Don't worry, the Hou of Ning'an loves the people like a son, I have high-yield grain in hand, this alone is enough for him to treat our family differently, even if he wants to touch us. , It depends on whether His Majesty the Emperor agrees or not, it will be alright."
When everyone saw her saying this, it was hard to say anything, and what she said did make some sense.
According to the old rules, Murong Lingran would give everyone pocket money every once in a while. This time, the more money was obtained at one time, and Murong Zong had someone he liked again, and there were more places to spend the money, so she was generous again. So she gave 500 taels to each of the three brothers, and 1,000 taels to the mother, so that they could buy whatever they wanted.
At this time in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, Ning'an Marquis frowned involuntarily as he looked at the letter in his hand.
Princess said: "Master Hou, is it the news that you sent back to Donghai Mansion?"
Ning Anhou nodded and handed the letter to his wife.
After reading it, the eldest princess frowned and said, "I have also read the letters from the other day. Baoshan Village, Murong Zhe's hometown, is a large village with a population of over 1,000 people. Neither Murong Liang nor Liu Shi are only sons and daughters, so why not? Do people remember that they left the village when Liu was pregnant?"
Ning'an Hou said: "Actually, this is normal. Most people can't remember everything in their own homes. How can they remember where others went more than 30 years ago."
The eldest princess said: "Don't Murongliang and Liu have brothers and sisters? Go directly to their brothers and sisters. If they have traveled far, they must know the best, don't they remember?"
The Hou of Ning'an said, "You know Liu's temper from the last letter. Although Baoshan Village is only one village, the village is very large. It is divided into east and west by a river. Liu lived in the east before getting married. , Murongliang lives in the west, and after Liu's marriage to Murongliang, she cut off contact with her parents' family. Because of the river, it is normal for the villagers of the two villages to avoid seeing each other for a month. of."
"As for the brothers and sisters in Murongliang's family, one sister was married far away and might only come home once a year. His younger brother and sister were young at that time, and they had a hard time when they were young, and they didn't remember much."
"When Murong Zhe was a child, Baoshan Village experienced an overturning of the earth, and many people died. Later, Murong Liang's parents also died. As a result, there are many fewer people who know what happened when Liu was in his teens."
