That little fly

As Shui Qingqian said, as long as he can still keep in touch with his friends and go to Grandpa Zhong's place to play, whether to move or not is never the focus of the problem.So, in the end they moved. The house they moved to was bigger and better. It was located on the other side of Laiyi Academy. It was a bit detoured from the pumpkin alley in Su’s house, but it was very convenient for him to go to school by the gate on the other side of the academy. .Going to the same academy, Su Ping and Shui Qingqian didn't feel any difference, and they lived as usual.

However, the owner of the water village is getting more and more busy. Apart from being busy fighting against a certain evil force, now he has to add one more thing: making money to raise a baby, and laying the foundation for the future permanent residence in the imperial capital.

When the water owner decided to take care of his son's emotions, it was only a matter of time before they revealed their identities.Uh, maybe, after they left Water Yin Manor, or insisted on coming to the capital to look for their father, this ending was settled.Maybe the imperial court will find a breakthrough from Shi Ke; maybe they will follow the vines from Shuiyinzhuang. The farmers in the Zhuangzi are all small farmers who have never seen the world. net.Therefore, the other party came to the door, sooner or later.

If the ending is doomed, the owner of Shui Zhuang doesn't want his family to become meat on the chopping board when that day comes.The official will probably put on a posture of seeking talents - the owner of Shui Zhuang can imagine the posture of the court.Anyway, Ning Renhou, the master of benevolence, is not good at governing the country, and he won't grab the pit of a certain radish. Why don't the radishes be generous?What's more, Mr. Renshu's gold finger will probably make many carrots flock to him.Don't forget, Princess Ningguo is Mr. Renshu's partner, and she has raised a lot of money over the years, and she probably has a lot of jealousy.Under such a premise, there should be no blind people who offend Mr. Renshu.Even so, it is obviously not in line with Fei Tian'er's philosophy of life to put one's own dignity, status, and safety on the other party's reason, magnanimity, and gentleness.

So, start early!

Oh no, it's called planning for a rainy day.

Let the water owner have to accumulate strength to strengthen himself, and there is another factor that cannot be ignored, those Feitian'er families.

According to the real concept of Fei Tian'er, these families have already belonged to impostors selling dog meat.But you can't deny that their secular influence is so huge that they can't be ignored. You can imagine how tyrannical these Heavenly Mansions are just because they have not been wiped out from the upper class of the imperial capital after a hundred years of inheritance.When it comes to conflicts of interest, these are the ones that bear the brunt.

Shui Zhuangzhu squinted his eyes and rubbed his fingers, nestled in the small dark room and pondered for several days, then shook his hair and walked out of the mansion with the steps of a bobcat.

Shui Qingqian is now playing like a fish in water in Laiyi Academy. As Master Zhong's admitted disciple, he can not only receive personal tutoring from Master Zhong, but also take classes in the academy and go to the library to read books. The key is that Shui Qingqian I like Grandpa Zhong very much. He thinks that Grandpa Zhong knows a lot. If he asks anything he encounters, Grandpa can speak clearly and clearly, and it is also lively and interesting. It is like listening to a story, which is very good.

On this day, Shui Qingqian was discussing Jiuge with Mr. Zhong with a book in hand.The old man got excited, and sang a paragraph against the fou. Shui Qingqian was learning each sentence. Mr. Zhong's head came in from the outside with Guizhou, and behind him was a servant boy in soap clothes. Both of them looked bad. Obviously something is wrong.Before Shui Qingqian had time to get up and avoid it, the boy in soap clothes plopped, knelt down beside the old gentleman, and whispered something in a low voice.

pat!

Master Zhong dropped the book in his hand, and his complexion became sallow, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.

"Grandpa Zhong!" Shui Qingqian helped him quickly with his eyes and hands, only to be out of danger.

Mr. Zhong himself didn't care about being in a trance at all. He grabbed Guizhou and walked towards the door, saying repeatedly, "Help the old man into the palace, quick, quick..." When he was about to walk to the door, he remembered that there was a little disciple behind him .

"Grandpa Zhong, I won't run around. After Su Ping finishes class later, I'll go find him, and I'll go home with him." Shui Qingqian promised.

"Well, good, good! That's good." After settling in the clear water, Mr. Zhong was obviously out of shape, and went out with the soap-clothed boy in a somewhat erratic manner.

At this time, Shui Qingqian didn't know what happened, anyway, it had nothing to do with him.But when he was looking for Su Xiaopang, the little fat man gave Shui Qingqian a big gift as soon as they met, which made him jump. "What did you do to apologize to me?"

"No." The little fat man waved his hands dumbfounded, "You don't know yet, do you?"

"what?"

The little fat man looked around them mysteriously, making sure that no one would speak, "Uncle Shui gave my family a big business, my mother told me, I can't thank you enough."

Shui Qingqian thought for a while, and probably understood, maybe his father was throwing money around again, waiting for the little fat family to earn money and then eat the bonus.

"What is it?" He asked casually.

"It seems to be a recipe for wine making." Su Ping didn't quite understand either.

To be precise, it is the manufacturing process of distilled alcohol.Dongzhou's current winemaking is still in the fermented grain, and the alcohol content is very low. Even though there are thousands of fine wines, the alcohol is just that.But the distillation process can produce high-purity liquor. Madam Shui originally used this method to purify alcohol for experimentation, but this thing has great commercial prospects.High-alcohol wine has an unimaginable charm for bitter cold places, especially for the people in Mobei who are good at wine.After dipping in high-concentration wine and then drinking rice wine brewed on weekdays, it will taste as light as water.Scarce, a necessity in a bitterly cold place, addictive, and consumes a lot of food... If this kind of monopoly technology is well controlled, it is not impossible to rise to the level of national strategy.

From technology to planning, this business was almost completely given to the Su family by the owner of the water. It was different from the kind of investment that was usually thrown around. That's why the Su family was so moved.With this unique skill, it is not impossible for the Su family to rank among the top business circles in the future.Of course, the choice of the Su family as a helper is also because the Su family is kind.

But the Su family is just one of the many arrangements of the water owner.Master Shui's plans are blooming everywhere, and the stall is not small, so there is not much time left for him to arrange it.The imperial court is currently investigating Shike, which is already known, but the owner of the water village is not sure whether they are also investigating the water Yinzhuang at the same time. The origin is almost unavoidable, and another girl was foolishly told by the Jinwu Guard to sell the old lair of the water owner.The imperial court really sent people to investigate, and they went straight to the gate of Shuiyinzhuang without getting lost.Counting the round-trip distance, turning around and heading back to the pumpkin alley in the imperial capital, you don't have to wait for the New Year to see the smiling faces of officials from the Ministry of Rites at the gate of their house.

When Shui Qingqian and Su Xiaopang were picked up by the steward of the Su family and returned home from school, the owner of the Shui village over there had a secret conversation with others, his face was gloomy, his fingers were clasped on the table and he tapped repeatedly, the sound of beeping was quiet Listening to it in the small room makes people flustered.

"Are you sure it's them?" Master Shui's tone indicated that he had already confirmed it.

"Uncle, this kind of thing comes quickly." The person who answered had a scar on his forehead, and he obviously had a quack aura.

"Ha, it's conceivable." Shui Zhuangzhu sneered, the noble status of the upper class in the imperial capital will definitely be linked to the power of the court, once they leave the center of power, the family will decline in less than ten or twenty years.Fei Tian'er has not been born in Tianren Mansion for a long time, so why is he still in the upper class?If you want to be a master, how can you survive if you don't make money.

The scarred man said angrily, "If you do such a wicked thing, how can you have the face to see your ancestors in the future!" Even if they were water bandits, they would not do such a heartless thing, they are simply inferior to animals.

Master Shui took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and calmed down. This time, the layout must be deep and extensive, the arrangements must be careful, and the actions must be traceless. Interest, the portal must be cleaned!No matter what they have done, the reputation of Tianren Mansion is linked to Fei Tian'er. Others don't know that they are peddling dog meat. If the scandal breaks out, it will be the fault of Fei Tian'er collectively. Their reputation accumulated over hundreds of years will be destroyed. The court is completely destroyed.

"Brother Tie, I'm afraid I have more manpower to trouble you..."

"Do not worry."

"The things in the secret door don't need to pay attention to factual evidence, don't care who is wronged, we don't come to the yamen to try the case, one counts as one..."

The two of them were talking about bloody things when suddenly a bell sounded from outside, which was low and wide. The two of them were stunned at the same time and looked outside.The sound of the bell came from far away from the imperial palace, and it almost spread throughout the city, one after another, slowly, solemnly and sadly.

"Huh? Where did the bell come from?" Shui Qingqian also heard it, and looked around.He and Su Xiaopang have already arrived home. In Su's residence, he is teaching the little fat man boxing and kicking kung fu.It was the gymnastics that Master Shui had taught him half a year ago but was disliked for not being domineering at all.After being kidnapped, Shui Qingqian finally started to pay attention, doing two sets every day.

Su Ping, who is independent of the golden rooster, "..."

"Legs are so sore, is it okay?"

"Why isn't it alright? I'm going to die."

"Hurry up and stop, hey, Qingqian!!!"

……

The heavy bell rang for a long time, ten or twenty rings. Of course the children didn't understand it, but the adults knew it was the sound of a great funeral. The owner of Shui Zhuang, who was worried that he didn't have enough time, had a complex expression for a moment.There is a funeral in the royal family, and it is known by the sound of the bell that the person who went is a big man.Regardless of whether the dead are important or not, for a big funeral, the court must be busy for a while. The dignitaries and dignitaries have been guarding for 27 days. Now it is almost cold dew. The imperial court seals the pen... one after another is waiting, the imperial court absolutely does not have the energy to investigate the illusory trace of Fei Tian'er.In the spring of the next year, whether these dignitaries will pick up this matter again is a question. Even if they pick it up and check it again, when they really find the head of Shui Zhuang, what kind of cultivation will this person have to do? level?It has long been a disaster.

Things turned out to be more serious than Master Shui's estimate.

The next day, the specific imperial decree was promulgated, stipulating that officials were honored for three months and civilians were banned from banquets for [-] days, and marriages were banned for [-] days. The one who died was the eldest son of the emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

What, the imperial prince is gone?

His Highness is in his prime, probably about the same age as the owner of Shui Zhuang, and he never thought that he would be caught by a moderate wind and cold.No one expected this, but the impact on the emperor, the empire, and the court can be imagined. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a turbulent sea. It is not impossible to bleed and drift.For a time, the whole world felt a sense of oppression that the rain was about to come.

"Is grandpa okay?" Shui Qingqian hugged Yuan Bao, and went to the study to ask his father.He didn't understand, seeing that everyone in the Su family was a bit cautious, this was still a business that couldn't compete with the court, and his grandfather was a high official in the court.

Master Shui raised his eyebrows, the eldest son of the emperor passed away, and the seat of the crown prince was now vacant, all kinds of sorrows were present, but after a while, the few living highnesses are not like excited black-eyed chickens?Shi Ke is one of the three princes of the imperial court who hold great power, and there must be many people who want to worship him in this temple.

"It's okay, your grandpa is fine."

The proprietor Shui was given ample time by accident, and the revenge plan continued to advance more and more orderly, but no matter how lengthy the funeral, there will be an end one day, and when Shui Qingqian saw his two grandfathers again, he had already changed into autumn and winter woolen clothes, Ready to go to the hot spring Zhuangzi Maodong.

Grandfather Shi Ke is fine, but Mr. Zhong looks a lot older, especially when the two of them appear together, it looks more like a grandfather than an uncle, but the husband is really a grandfather.Shui Qingqian only found out later that Grandpa Zhong was the teacher of His Highness the Crown Prince. He had taught him for more than 20 years, but he did not expect that the student died overnight. This must have been a great blow to Grandpa Zhong.

Shui Qingqian just saw them from a distance and didn't go forward.Today is the birthday of Princess Ningguo. As a powerful figure of the highest generation in the royal family, the old lady's birthday banquet was held grandly and decently, sweeping away the desolate and cold atmosphere of the mourning period.Once the nobles and the royal family start to return to social activities, it means that the death and grief of His Royal Highness the Prince has been completely turned.The rest is to see who has the ability to occupy the radish pit left by the prince.

According to the origin, when Princess Ningguo celebrates her birthday, the owner of Shui Village and his family are also eligible to be invited.With a prescription from Mr. Renshu, Princess Ningguo turned from a second-rate clan in-law, Xianyu, to a prosperous family today. Mr. Renshu has made great contributions.But the owner of Shui Zhuang didn't intend to reveal his identity, but he really gave a congratulatory gift.It is marked with medicinal materials. There are twelve thin-necked blue-glazed porcelain bottles in two rows. They are packed in top-grade but not expensive sandalwood boxes, and a letter is also inserted.Looks like the weight of any insignificant poor relative who comes door-to-door begging for a hug.

The receiving clerk writes down the gifts one by one, and then asks, "May I ask your name?"

"Benevolence students."

The clerk wrote "Ren Shusheng" on the gift list as soon as he picked up his pen.The water owner didn't correct him, gave a gift, and then left with his son.
