MTL - The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor-Chapter 1118 Foreshadowing, the death of Master Crossing Tribulation

Chapter 1118: Premonition, Death of the Master of Tribulation

The bearded man didn't take it seriously and sneered: "So what if we have beasts to protect us? No matter how powerful the beasts are, they can't defeat us? Maybe that person said that on purpose, just to get more benefits! Let's take action when the others arrive. The girl is tied up, I don’t believe that so many people can’t even deal with a girl, it’s best to capture that whole family, so that we have a greater chance of success.”

The woman was not so optimistic. She was worried that she would make a mistake and reminded her again: "It's better to be more cautious. We will wait for the others to arrive and think about it in the long term. There must be no mistakes..."

"Okay, Weiya, you're just too timid, and it's not fun to do things at all." The bearded man waved his hand impatiently, interrupting Weiya: "I know what I'm saying, and I won't ruin the big thing! Martial law is under martial law in Chujing right now. , let’s try to see if we can get in touch with that person first. Without his help, even if we successfully tie up the female doll, we may not be able to rescue Weir and the others.”

When the woman called Via heard the man mention her brother Weir, her original dissatisfaction was instantly suppressed, and she nodded in agreement with the suggestion of growing a beard.

Mo Yan bought honey candies and asked the old man selling them to break them into small pieces. She was delayed for a while. When she returned and passed through the alley again, there was no one inside.

She shook her head and didn't understand why she was so concerned about two strangers. She attributed everything to the fact that these two people were too special among the crowd. After laughing at myself, I came to the teahouse holding the honey candies wrapped in oil paper.

The family sat in the teahouse for a while, and after learning in detail about the sights available near Taohua Town with the waiter in the teahouse, they roughly determined the next place to go. After taking a short rest, they spent five days. Qian Yinzi hired a local uncle to take them to their destination.

In the next few days, the family continued to visit several famous towns near the capital. They visited almost all the interesting places and ate all the local specialties. Everyone was so happy that they couldn't wait to continue playing.

Unfortunately, Mo Qingze's wedding leave was only ten days, and he only had five days of full time for fun. No matter how unhappy the mother and daughter are, they still have to go home. Besides, the eldest grandson's full moon ceremony will be held in two days. The Mo family's father and daughter will definitely be there to congratulate them, and they have to prepare the gifts.

"Mom, this is the body-building medicinal material I prepared for you and dad. You have Aunt Sun do it every three days. The method is also very simple. I have written it on paper. When the time comes, you can read it to Aunt Sun. After a few times, she knows how to do it.”

After dinner that night, Mo Yan knocked on her parents' door with two big boxes in her arms. The boxes contained tonics that nourished yin and yang. They were made into medicated meals and were good for the body.

"You are such a considerate child." Cui Qingrou took the box with emotion. After this trip, she finally realized that compared to her husband's family, she was indeed in poor health, and she could accept medicinal foods that she didn't like. "Let your father take away your father's son tomorrow, and don't use mine."

"Why not?" Mo Yan thought Cui Qingrou didn't want to eat it, so she persuaded: "I specially prepared this according to my mother's body. After my mother eats it, some of her old problems will be cured. Even if you don't like it, you can You have to think about your own body.”

Hearing this, Cui Qingrou knew that her daughter had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "It's not that I don't want to eat, it's just that I'm at home, so there's no need to take this to the No. 1 Scholar's Palace."

When Mo Yan heard this, she became even more surprised: "Mom, don't you go to the Number One Scholar's Mansion with your father? Why?"

Cui Qingrou also had a strange look on her face and said without thinking: "This is our home. My mother is your mother now. Naturally, she has to stay at home to take care of you. What would it be like to leave you and follow your father to the Number One Scholar's Palace? What does it look like?”

When Mo Yan heard this, she immediately couldn't laugh or cry: "You and dad are husband and wife, why can't you go to live in the Number One Scholar's Mansion? Besides, my two sisters and I are not baby babies who need to be watched over by adults, so you can go with dad without worries, daughter I also hope that Mom can keep an eye on Dad and not let him read endlessly and even forget to eat and sleep."

At this time, Mo Qingze, who had finished packing his things, walked out of the study. When he heard his daughter arranging him in front of his wife, he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "You talk a lot."

Mo Yan rolled her eyes: "If I don't say much, will you leave my mother at home alone?"

Hearing this, Mo Qingze's aura suddenly dropped: "Your mother can't let you go, and she's worried about being accused. Your father has been trying to persuade her for a long time, but she just doesn't listen."

 After speaking, he looked at his eldest daughter with hope, hoping that the eldest daughter could persuade his wife to let her live in the city with him. After finally marrying the wife he wanted, he never wanted to experience the feeling of being alone and unable to sleep.

 Cui Qingrou wanted to cover her face at her husband's straightforward words and eyes. This man was so old that he really dared to say anything in front of his daughter.

Mo Yan was defeated by her father's helpless and pitiful appearance. She originally wanted to ask him to agree to some requests before persuading her, but after thinking about it, she couldn't think of anything that she couldn't do and needed help from her father. , and had no choice but to persuade her mother, who blushed with embarrassment.

"Mom, you and dad are newly married. How can we live apart in less than three months? You don't have to worry about what outsiders will say. What do their thoughts have to do with us? As long as our family is harmonious, they will naturally Will keep his mouth shut.”

This world is too harsh on women. If the husband is away from home all year round, the wife has to stay at home to take care of the elderly and children. If she dares to leave the elderly and children behind, she will definitely be scolded for being unfilial and unkind. But the man who should bear all this is not only You will not be criticized by anyone, but you will also be sympathized with. Who makes people work outside to make the family live a good life!

Unexpectedly, some men who have achieved some success outside have kept concubines who are as beautiful as flowers. When he returns home that day, he brings his concubine and a bunch of children born to him, kowtows to the first wife who does housework and takes care of the family, and offers a cup of tea as a sign of respect to the first wife -

 Look, I have asked my beloved concubine and son to kowtow to you, what else do you want?

At this time, can a woman throw the tea cup and drive away her concubine? cannot!

Even though she knew that her father was not such a person, she could not guarantee that her mother would have random thoughts at home, and Mo Yan hated such things deeply and could not do anything to separate her parents. With a well-informed mother watching from the sidelines, when my father encounters problems, he can discuss them personally and avoid detours.

Cui Qingrou naturally didn't want to separate from her husband. Now that her daughter agreed with her to go, her already unsteady heart became even more shaken. However, she had her concerns and hesitated for a moment and said, "This is still inappropriate. Some people accuse my mother of being wrong." , Mom just ignored it, but you sisters are getting older day by day, and maybe next year you will have to go out. If Mom doesn’t act like educating you, I’m afraid someone will make trouble for you sisters in the future."

If this is true, it will affect Xin'er and Sheng'er's engagement in the future. Cui Qingrou did not say this directly.

 Mo Yan heard the hidden meaning in Cui Qingrou's words, which she really didn't expect. The family is getting better and better now. Even if the two younger sisters marry at a lower age, they will not be much lower in the future. If someone takes this as an issue, it will indeed have an impact.

However, this is not a problem, Mo Yan suggested: "Let's let Xin'er and Sheng'er take care of themselves and go to the Number One Scholar's Mansion together tomorrow. They really need mother's guidance!"

Mo Qingze and Cui Qingrou looked at each other and said in unison: "Just do what you say."

Mo Yan looked at her parents, who had a perfect understanding of each other, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously. At this time, she did not know that it was this decision that would allow her mother and two younger sisters to successfully escape disaster soon after.

The matter was settled in this way. Mo Yan said good night to his parents, then came to the two sisters' residence, told them respectively about the temporarily settled matter, and asked them if they were willing.

Xin'er and Sheng'er didn't really want to go. It wasn't that they didn't like living with their parents. It was just that they were used to living in Liuyang Village and everything here was good, so they didn't want to move.

However, after Mo Yan explained the pros and cons, the two of them didn't have too much entanglement and quickly agreed.

 Mo Yan helped them pack their things overnight. In fact, the Zhuangyuan Mansion had everything. If not, you could buy it on the street. The big bundles packed were mostly clothes, shoes, socks, jewelry and other items. When you arrive in the capital, you can’t be too casual about what you wear.

Sent away my father, mother and sister, along with the four maids I bought, the house seemed to be mostly empty. Mo Yan was a little uncomfortable at first, but gradually there were more things at home, and she no longer had time to miss her two sisters.

On this day, Mo Yan was calculating the accounts of recent expenses. Yuan Yue knocked on the door and came in and said: "Girl, there is a master outside the gate who claims to be from Baohua Temple. He said he has something important to ask you. Do you want to meet him?"

"Baohua Temple?" Mo Yan put down her pen, feeling a little puzzled. "Invite people into the main hall, and I will come soon."

"Yes!" Yuanyue responded, turned around and went out.

Mo Yan stood up, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with her clothes, she went to the main hall and asked another girl, Emei, to make tea and snacks.

After a while, Yuanyue led a monk in gray robes and walked in. The monk looks quite young, in his forties.

As soon as he entered the door, he clasped his hands and saluted Mo Yan, and then took out a small wooden box from the small bundle on his back.

The shape and material of the small wooden box are very similar to the one that Master Dujie gave to Mo Yan that day. When Mo Yan saw this box, his eyelids jumped fiercely, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

 Sure enough, the middle-aged monk’s next words confirmed Mo Yan’s guess!

"Donor Mo, my great uncle passed away a few days ago. Master followed my uncle's orders and asked the young monk to give this gift to Donor Mo." The middle-aged monk held back the tears in his eyes and placed the small wooden box on the table.

Mo Yan stared blankly at the small wooden box, unable to believe the facts he heard. Mingming saw Master Crossing Tribulation that day. He looked younger than Master Kong Kong. He obviously didn't look like a dying person. He had only been a few days. Day, why did you go suddenly?

"Birth, aging, sickness and death are the laws of heaven and earth and the nature of all things. Uncle Taizu has put his regrets behind him. Now that his merits are complete, it is his old wish to serve the Buddha. I hope the benefactor will not show mercy!" The middle-aged monk couldn't help but persuade him. Mo Yan didn't respond. He let out a sigh, turned around and walked out of the main hall slowly.

Mo Yan was grateful for Master Dujie's kindness in gifting the relics, and she suddenly couldn't accept the news of his death. It took a long time for her to come back to her senses.

Looking at the inconspicuous little wooden box on the table, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, and she held it up with slightly trembling hands. After holding the small wooden box for a long time, I put it into the space.

In the space, Xue Tuanzi silently took the wooden box and placed it together with the wooden box previously given by Master Crossing Tribulation. For the first time, a glimmer of water appeared in the snail's eyes...

The death of Master Dujie made Mo Yan depressed for several days. It wasn't until more and more things at home piled up that she had to deal with them that she managed to cheer up.

At present, the house for another group of retired soldiers has been built in the orchard, and a small courtyard has also been built in the medicine garden. After a while, the moisture in the house will dissipate, and Mu Bo will move in. Previously, he came from Jinxiu Textile The rescued children will also be picked up, live there, study with Mu Bo, and take care of the medicine garden together.

 The second batch of retired soldiers was about to arrive. Mo Yan handed the matter over to Uncle Huang and asked him to make arrangements. There are a thousand retired soldiers in this group. In addition to arranging 300 people to take care of the winery, 200 people are added to the orchards, and the remaining 500 people are all assigned to the farm. In the future, they will be responsible for the thousand acres of land on the farm. .

After Uncle Huang went down, Li Zhong came in carrying two large bamboo baskets with dozens of small porcelain bottles in them. He put the bamboo basket on the table, took out a bottle and put it in front of Mo Yan: "Girl Yan, this is the wine I picked out from the wine tank. You can see how it goes and see if it can be packed."

Hearing this, Mo Yan picked up a small porcelain bottle and uncorked it, and immediately smelled the smell of wine mixed with the aroma of apples. Her eyes lit up, she took a small sip, closed her eyes and tasted it carefully, then opened her eyes and said with a smile: "This vat of cider is of the highest quality. Grandpa Li can arrange for it to be divided into bottles."

 Packaging is to put qualified wine into special bottles. It looks like a cider jar, shaped like an apple, which looks novel and exquisite.

This batch of wine is the first batch. No one knows better than Mo Yan how to distinguish the quality of the wine, so she acted as a quality inspector, inspecting the quality of these wines, and divided them into three batches: upper, middle and lower. The price of the high-quality batches is naturally different from the price of the medium-quality batches. The low-quality batches are unqualified and can only be thrown away in the end.

 The first bottle was rated as top quality, which greatly enhanced Li Zhong's self-confidence. He took the small porcelain bottle that was rated as top quality and put it in a separate place, waiting for Mo Yan to continue testing the next bottle. These small porcelain bottles and wine jars have corresponding labels, so even if they are piled together, they will not be confused.

The second bottle Mo Yan opened was peach wine. Peach wine is very suitable for women to drink. A higher proportion of sugar is added during brewing. She took a sip and frowned slightly. Under Li Zhong's nervous gaze, she shook her head: "It's not sealed properly. It's a little sour. Pour it away."

Without hesitation, Li Zhong took out his writing brush and drew a red cross on the label of the small porcelain bottle.

Mo Yan nodded appreciatively, secretly thinking that letting Li Zhong take care of the winery was the right decision. He has the foresight and vision to make the right decisions.

It is very painful to throw away a tank of wine that is only slightly sour but still drinkable, but if you want to make the winery famous in one shot, you can't make any mistakes. Even if this vat of peach wine is drinkable, it just doesn't taste good, so it can't be put on the market.

There are too many samples. Even if Mo Yan is not drunk, his tongue will lose its normal judgment because of the too many and complicated samples. After tasting ten samples, she stopped and waited for half an hour before continuing.

Out of the ten samples I tasted, except for one vat of sour peach wine and one vat of somewhat spoiled wine, there were no problems with the others. Among them, there were six portions of the superior portions and two portions of the medium portions, which were considered very good and far exceeded Mo Yan's expectations.

But Li Zhong couldn't let go. The problem of sourness and corruption was caused by the improper sealing. This was entirely his fault.

Mo Yan saw it, and after comforting Li Zhong, she asked him to take the good samples to package them, and she would finish the rest slowly.

In the next few days, apart from dealing with some more urgent matters, Mo Yan stayed in the study and tasted wine. Li Zhong also moved very quickly. The wine was almost finished and packaged.

In addition to leaving a batch of wine as a collector's edition to be sold at a high price in the future, the remaining wine was taken away one after another by people sent by Yan Junyu. Yan Junyu's industry is widely distributed. This batch of wine seems to be a lot. Some are shipped to each place and then disappear. If it is sold out, it will have to wait until next year to replenish it.

Both Mo Yan and Yan Junyu were very confident in this batch of fruit wine, and a free tasting event held next to Mipu sold out all two hundred bottles of fruit wine in two hours, which was a success. First shot.

As October approaches, the full moon ceremony of the eldest grandson of Da Chu finally arrives. As the legitimate son of the crown prince, and deeply loved by the king of the country, if there is no accident, the eldest grandson of the legitimate emperor will be the next crown prince of Da Chu.

On the second day of the lunar new year, almost all the people with some connections are trying their best to get an invitation to the Prince's Mansion. Even if they can't see Emperor Hui'an and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who are going to the Prince's Mansion to observe the ceremony, this is still a good opportunity to make friends. .

 In fact, the Prince's Mansion does not need invitations at all to hold weddings. However, the foreign spy who escaped from the Ministry of Justice has not yet been arrested and brought to justice. It is inevitable that some spy will sneak in, so the Prince's Mansion sent out hundreds of invitations.

Only the person holding the invitation can enter the Prince's Mansion to celebrate the eldest grandson of the emperor. Therefore, this thin invitation is extremely precious. If you can get the invitation, it means that you have caught the eye of His Highness and have a bright future!
