The rain steps turned back. Fu Qiuning and Jianfeng turned around and left first. The servants at the corner gate drove away all the people who were watching the excitement. Just now, peace was restored in front of the magistrate's back yamen Corner Gate.

The woman followed the rain steps to the flower Hall of the back hall. Although she was not wet, she was also a little embarrassed. A little servant girl came over with a suit of clothes and said in a crisp voice, "our grandmother changed clothes in the inner room. She said that the lady was wet and cold. Let's bring this suit to her. Our grandmother said that it was brand new. Looking at the lady's size, she asked her not to be polite."

The woman quickly declined, but the little servant girl insisted. She was really embarrassed when she saw her coarse cloth clothes. Since the Hou Ye's wife was thoughtful, it was inconvenient to go against her kindness, because she went into the inner room and changed it. When she came out, she saw Fu Qiuning sitting in a chair slowly blowing tea.

Hearing the footsteps, Fu Qiuning raised his head and put the tea cup on the table. While standing up and giving up his seat, he asked the servant girl to have hot tea. When the woman sat down, she smiled and asked, "look at your age, I should call you sister. But I don't know your sister's name?"

The woman hurriedly stood up and said, "don't you dare, i... the little woman Bai Zhang, have seen her wife."

"It's Sister Zhang." Fu Qiuning nodded his head, waved his hand and said, "Sister Zhang, you're welcome. Please sit down. I'd like to ask my sister about something today." speaking of this, when I saw the little servant girl's window flower with hot tea and snacks, she gave way again. Where would Bai Zhang really eat and drink? Fortunately, Fu Qiuning has always been approachable, If Jiang WANYING sits here, I'm afraid Bai Zhang's hands don't know where to put them.

From what Fu Qiuning just said, he knew that Bai Zhang's family had a sick child, so he stopped beating around the Bush and opened the door to the mountain path: "Just then, the woman in the west corner gate cried loudly. Although she didn't say a word about our family, she thought that since she chose such a place, it had something to do with our family. There was no secret talk in front of the public. My sister's husband wanted to be an official in the magistrate's Yamen. I'm afraid the noisy woman was also. I asked, but because our family moved here, we let the people in the Yamen All moved out? "

Bai Zhang didn't expect Fu Qiuning to be so direct. For a moment, Fu Qiuning didn't know what to say. Seeing her hesitation, Fu Qiuning solemnly said: "Elder sister, if you are really the family member of a yamen official, you should know our origin clearly. Our family came all the way from the capital. We just arrived yesterday. When we came, the Yamen was clean. At that time, our Lord also wondered if someone did something unqualified to curry favor with us, and said no. I looked at it, although it was not good It's the capital, but Quanzhou is not a small place after all. It should not be easy for someone to coerce officials in order to curry favor with the officials, so they are relieved. But now it seems that it's not the same thing. I wonder if my sister can explain it for me. "

When Bai Zhang heard Fu Qiuning say this, she suddenly jumped in her heart. She was not a fool. After thinking about it, she whispered, "madam is serious. Lord Lijin is your Lord, and he has wronged him in this place..."

Before he finished, Fu Qiuning waved his hand and shook his head "That's not true. Although he is a marquis, now that he is an official here, he naturally needs to pay attention to the rules of being an official. Although I don't go out of the gate in the Yasukuni government, I also know that this folk government office is not a dominant one. Quanzhou used to be a rich place near the sea, but it has hurt a lot because of Japanese pirates these years. Just now the woman Although the trouble is unbearable, there are some meanings in the words. It seems that the officials here are very responsible. Even so, we can't wrong people. Our Marquis has some wealth, but if other adults only rely on their salary, they have to support their families, appease the people and help the poor. I want to know where they are going if they move out of the back yamen again Find a foothold? My sister clearly told me that I have my own reason. Otherwise, if this move makes the government officials cold, our Lord is still in the dark. My sister thinks carefully, who is fair? "

Bai Zhang listened to Fu Qiuning's words, and her heart beat faster. She looked at her intently. Her face was solemn and there was no disdain. After all, the woman was worried about her sick child. At this time, encouraged by these words, she didn't know where she had a trace of courage, so she left her seat and knelt down in front of Fu Qiuning and said: "Madam Mingjian, there were indeed five families living in the back Yamen. Just because the Marquis was going to take office, everyone said that the little Marquis was the most proud person before the imperial court. Now even if he was sent to this place by the crown prince, it will not be long-term. It will still be important after the emperor returns to Beijing. Therefore... Our families thought that the Marquis, his wife and brothers and sisters are all gold bodies. How about it Can live under the same roof with us, so we moved out... "

Before he could finish, he heard a "Dong" sound on the table. It turned out that Fu Qiuning knocked on the table. Bai Zhang was so frightened that he was pale and dared not speak again. However, he saw Fu Qiuning stand up and take a few breaths. Just then he put away his anger, reached out his hand to help her, and said positively: "It's very wrong. There's no such reason. I'll send someone with my sister to the big families, saying that I and my lord invited them to live back in person. My Lord and adults are colleagues, and we should support each other in external affairs. Naturally, we family members should be happy."

"Husband... Madam..."

Bai Zhang was stunned. He didn't expect Fu Qiuning to say such words. For a time, he just felt hot in his heart. He didn't know what to say. Suddenly, Fu Qiuning said again, "rain step, go and get ten Liang silver for Sister Zhang. Since her child is ill, it costs money to ask for medicine. It's pity that the salaries of officials here can't be in the whole family." then she saw Bai Zhang's mouth opening and wanted to speak, so she said sincerely: "It's my sincerity. If you don't, you can really blame me. My sister doesn't have to be embarrassed. Just think about my brother's illness. Can I afford to delay it? I'm also a person with children. Although I'm not my own, I value it as a treasure on weekdays. How can I not understand my sister's embarrassment as a mother? What's more, I just said that our Lord and Lord Bai are colleagues , they support each other outside. Naturally, we should help each other. You have helped me a lot today. Ten liang of silver is not much. It's just to help my sister solve a burning need. If you refuse again, my sister really despises me. "

It's not that Fu Qiuning was stingy and only gave Bai ten Liang silver, but she knew that Bai Zhang should also be a well-educated and reasonable lady. Although her family was in a difficult situation at this time, her demeanor was not an ordinary daughter. Unless her child was ill, she was afraid to advance and retreat more appropriately. Such people are usually a little arrogant. If they give silver With more children, it seems that he is a nouveau riche and smashes people with money. Ten liang of silver is enough for a medium-sized family. It is more than enough to ask for a doctor and take medicine for half a year. It is also a bottom line accepted by Bai Zhang. If he is afraid of more, he will say he won't take it.

Sure enough, Bai Zhang refused again and again. Seeing that Fu Qiuning couldn't beat him, Fang accepted the silver with great gratitude. Here, Fu Qiuning ordered Yujie to go with her to inform the family members of the officials to move back. When people left here, she asked Jian Feng, "how many rooms do we occupy in the back yamen house? If we can't, let feng'er jiao'er go to my house to warm the pavilion."

After calculating, Jianfeng said with a smile, "the Communist Party doesn't occupy much. We only moved here yesterday. Now many boxes and cages occupy two empty rooms and are packed into the two small buildings in grandma's yard. Only grandma Wan occupied a yard before. Now if those people move back, I'm afraid grandma II will move into our yard."

In this regard, Fu Qiuning also feels a little headache. Since Jiang WANYING's identity has been determined, it is impossible to turn over in this family. But now Jin Fengju still keeps her, thinking that she may be a chess piece in the future, so she really can't reveal the clue. She is delicate and precious. Now if she knows how to be wronged, she doesn't know how to make trouble. Fu Qiuning is real I'm too lazy to tell her.

After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "well, those families won't move back tonight. Just wait until tomorrow to see if you can come back and make a theory."

Jianfeng promised to come down and said with a smile, "it's almost dark for this delay. I've asked in the kitchen two or three times. Now it's time to set the meal?" when she saw Fu Qiuning nodding, she went out to make arrangements.

In a moment, after dinner, Fu Qiuning saw Jin Zhenyi, Jin cangjiao and Jin xiunan holding their little milk cat in their arms. Only Jin Cangfeng was empty handed. She couldn't help but be gratified. She secretly said that Feng ER was still stable. Because she briefly talked about today's affairs, she said to Jin Cangfeng, Jin cangjiao: "Since those people want to move back, we have to be aggrieved. Feng'er jiao'er, you will move back to your mother's house, live in the warm Pavilion, and give your house to your brother and sister. The study is still shared. But the rooms where brother Yi and three girls live together with the remaining two are for your two mother. She has always been respected and used to. If she suddenly lives in a crowded house, I'm afraid she's not used to it."

Jin zangfeng and Jin zangjiao naturally have no opinion, but are very happy. They are very willing to live with Qiu Ning. Jin Zhenyi tilted his mouth and hummed: "Aunt, I know you've always been kind, but it's a little too kind. We have so many people. We squeeze these two rooms, but we give so many to ER Niang. That's all. I'm just afraid if you give in to this point, it's hard for others to say you a good word. Wait, there will be some trouble tomorrow." (to be continued.
