Mrs. Fan was happy to run errands for Lord Kangde, and she also told Mrs. Wang that from now on everyone can just call her Sister-in-law Fan.
Although Sister-in-law Fan is not very efficient at her work, she has a clear eye for work, and Grandma Wang is quite satisfied.
Mrs. Wang automatically made a distinction between the names of the two mothers named Wang. She was younger than Grandma Wang, so she called herself Er Niang Wang, and everyone called her Mother Wang Er; Grandma Wang called herself Aunt Wang, and everyone called her Aunt Wang.
The work of demolishing the wall on the west side has already begun.
Uncle Ma is the main force, Uncle Hai helps, and Erniang Wang serves tea and water, and from time to time goes to the kitchen to make medicine.
When Qin Xiangxiang woke up, the wall was almost demolished. Uncle Ma is doing the final touches.
Wang Erniang soon got a new job. She took Fan Xiang'er around next door and came back and told Qin Xiangxiang: "The west courtyard is quite good, but it is a little worn out, but there are two main rooms and four side rooms." , the yard is quite big, and there are two crabapples planted there. There is also a small garden in the back. It may have been neglected for many years, and a lot of weeds have grown."
Wang Erniang was worthy of seeing the world, and she quickly organized the two houses into an east courtyard and a west courtyard.
Qin Xiangxiang listened to her words and wished that there would be a south courtyard and a north courtyard soon.
Qin Xiangxiang said: "While the weather is fine, hurry up and clean out the west courtyard, and then ask Lord Kangde to live there. She is not in good health, so she has to move there to recuperate."
Wang Erniang was very sympathetic to Lord Kangde. After hearing this, she said: "My eldest lady is really kind-hearted."
She added: "Cleaning the main house is quick, but the back garden will take a few days."
She planned that after the back garden was finished, she could move Si Ping and Yang Dagui out to bask in the sun.
Oops, I’m so busy.
Erniang Wang enthusiastically led Fan Xiang'er, Uncle Ma and Uncle Hai to continue working in the west courtyard.
The four of them worked hard and got all the houses in order before dark.
When Sister-in-law Fan went to ask Mr. Kande to move into the main house in the west courtyard, Mr. Kande was surprised and waved his hands repeatedly: "How can this be done? I can just live here with this broken old bone."
Sister-in-law Fan said softly: "This is what the eldest lady ordered. She said that there is no room for us to live here. From now on, this side room will be reserved for others to live in."
This side room can only accommodate a small bed, which cannot accommodate two people. What's more, Lord Kangde is still a patient.
Aunt Wang also advised Lord Kangde: "Mrs. Qin is kind-hearted, so Lord please move here."
After all the hard work, Lord Kangde finally agreed.
I only saw the west courtyard. Everything had been washed and cleaned. Although it was old, it was well kept. There was even carpet on the floor tiles in the main room. The tent covers, curtains, and window screens in the house are all new.
There is even a pot of flowers on the flower table in the southwest corner.
Although it is not as good as Wenchang Hou Mansion, Kangde Junjun is very satisfied.
As soon as Lord Kangde sat down on the cushioned rose chair, Sister-in-law Fan brought hot tea and asked her: "Do you like softer noodles, or chewier noodles?"
"Just eat softer soup noodles." Lord Kande said.
Aunt Wang thought of the noodle soup she had for lunch and couldn't help but swallow her saliva: "I like to eat chewy noodles."
No wonder the Qin family restaurant is doing well, it turns out the food they make is really good.
Lord Kangde has been in low spirits and has poor appetite since he was poisoned. He usually only eats two mouthfuls of food. Unexpectedly, he actually ate less than half a bowl at lunch today.
Lord Kangde also said: "The food here tastes somewhat similar to that of Fan Lou."
Aunt Wang hurriedly said: "Mrs. Qin once competed with Chen Xiaodong's family in Fan Building in Tiansheng Tower. Even Tianxiang Tower lost to Mrs. Qin."
Lord Kangde sighed: "I never thought that Mrs. Qin would be a treasure. I once heard that Qin Guanlan had two daughters. The eldest daughter was born to his deceased wife and is unknown. Qin Wanwan is quite famous."
She became silent as she spoke.
She knew her son better than her mother, so she knew a thing or two about how sincere Song Mingjie was towards Qin Wanwan. When Qin Guanlan's accident happened, she was still a little gloating.
Now that Qin Xiangxiang had taken her in regardless of past suspicions, she was actually very ashamed.
"Jie'er owes the Qin family, I will help Mrs. Qin get it back." Lord Kangde said.
…
When Mu Ting and his party arrived at Dali Temple, Ma Sizhi came out to greet them: "Prince Mu."
Ma Sizhi's face was filled with a smile: "I have never thanked Prince Mu for the peach blossom cake. The children in the family like it very much."
Mu Ting's eyes fell on his face: "As long as you like it. By the way, Ma Sizhi, I wonder who will replace Liao Pingshi?"
Ma Sizhi said earnestly: "It's Shi Xi Shi Pingshi. Shi Pingshi comes from a poor family, and he hates evil the most."
He took the word "hatred of evil" very seriously.
The corners of Mu Ting's lips were slightly raised, noncommittal.
Someone soon passed the news, and Shi Xi quickly came out to greet him.
Shi Xi was born well, with handsome features and a tall figure.
Yao Erlang muttered from behind: "All the judges in Dali Temple have a good appearance."
This is true.
When Shi Xi greeted Mu Ting, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.
Mu Ting got straight to the point: "Where is Tuge now?"
Shi Xi was stunned: "Tuge is the envoy of the Di Kingdom, and the officials of Honglu Temple picked him up last night."
Mu Ting's eyes burned: "Who on earth said that Tuge was the envoy of the Di Kingdom?"
Shi Xi glanced at Ma Sizhi and said hesitantly, "It's Yuan Kuo, the young minister of Honglu Temple."
Mu Ting asked again: "Are you free now to comment on the current situation?"
"It's time." Shi Xi said.
"Then please excuse me and go with my son to Honglu Temple."
"I obey your orders."
The group of people left as quickly as they arrived.
Ma Si stood aside, and Mu Ting didn't even call him.
Da Xu said angrily: "Obviously Sizhi is also responsible for this case..."
Ma Sizhi raised his hand slightly, and Da Xu shut up angrily.
Honglu Temple is not far from Dali Temple, but it occupies a large area. At first glance, it looks like a very lucrative lawsuit.
Even the guards guarding the place were tall, mighty and brightly dressed.
Hearing that Mu Ting and his entourage came because of Tuge, the guard said, "Envoy Tuge is in the Concierge Courtyard, and Yuan Shaoqing is entertaining the foreign envoys. Do you have anything important to do?"
Yao Erlang almost burst into tears: the people in Honglu Temple are so blind that they treat scum as distinguished guests!
Mu Ting asked: "How is Tuge's injury now?"
The guard said: "Messenger Tuge was seriously injured by Liao Pingshi. Yuan Shaoqing was furious because of this. He invited several doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to jointly diagnose the pulse and prescribe prescriptions. He said that Messenger Tuge's injury was controllable, and Yuan Shaoqing felt relieved. "
Mu Ting raised his eyebrows: "He's not dead? What a pity."
The guard looked at Mu Ting in shock.
Mu Ting could only hear Mu Ting casually say: "Who said Tuge was injured by Liao Pingshi? What kind of ability does Liao Pingshi have? It was obviously my son who passed by Xiao Qin Tower, drew his sword to help, and kicked the guy. Tsk, This prince’s kick was too gentle.”
Shi Xi was stunned.
