On this day, Xiao Nuan woke up and felt a little cold, she wrapped herself in a quilt and listened to the rustling of leaves outside the window, and before she knew it, it was August again, and the weather was getting colder.

Hearing movement in the house, Qiu Yue came in softly and the princess woke up, so she picked up the bed veil and helped Xiao Nuan sit up.

Chunhua immediately handed over a glass of water at just the right temperature, and waited for Xiao Nuan to drink it. The two neatly helped her change her clothes and comb her hair.

Xiao Nuan squinted her eyes comfortably, this kind of enjoyment can only be enjoyed when the third master is not in the village. If the third master is here, Chunhua Qiuyue will not even dare to enter the bedroom.

After breakfast, Shuang Cheng and Wang Quantong stood neatly in front of Xiao Nuan, each holding a booklet in their hands, reporting the affairs of the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard of the Fuzhong and Zhuangzili. Xiao Nuan needs to sign and approve in person, and there are only a dozen of them, and Xiao Nuan has processed them one by one, and it only took less than half an hour.

Watching the two of them withdraw together, Xiao Nuan sighed, "It's too condescending." ”

Hearing the princess's idea of beating the princess and Aunt Shuangcheng again, Chunhua Qiuyue pursed her lips and Xuan Wu chuckled.

Shuang Cheng and Wang Quantong were the right-hand men of the third master, and after being taught by the princess herself, their skills have improved a lot, and it is more than enough to take care of a house and a village. If it weren't for the fact that these two people were indispensable in the palace, the princess would have sent them to the shop to take care of things.

Xiao Nuan sighed, and asked energetically, "Didn't you say yesterday that there was a batch of goods arriving at the dock today, what time is it?" ”

Qiu Yue replied, "It's true, because there are several big merchants who are staring at this batch of goods, so the second girl and Rhubarb went to the dock early in the morning, and the second girl must grab the best." ”

My sister has the ability, but after all, she is still young and has little experience, Xiao Nuan is a little worried, "Which businesses have gone?" ”

Xuan Wu understood what the princess was asking, and replied, "If the Cheng family doesn't go, the Luo family and the He family in the west of the city will compete with us for goods. ”

Hearing that Zhao Shuyan was there, Xiao Nuan was immediately relieved, with his help to watch it, Xiaocao would not be able to suffer a big loss.

Qin San, Uncle Cabinet and Zhanfu are not in Beijing, and the people who can hold down the position here are not there, Xiao Nuan wants to keep an eye on this batch of goods in person, but her mother and the third master don't let her go out, so she can only send Xiaocao out.

Now is the season of cotton harvesting, the cotton in her dozens of granges, as well as the cotton in the hands of the cotton farmers who signed a contract with her this spring to take cotton seeds for free after the autumn, must be collected as soon as possible, this is the shop's reliance for the next year, and Xiao Nuan's subordinates are almost all running for this matter.

Her personal maid green butterfly went directly to Xuzhou from Nanshan Pass, Wang Hanhao, who was running around for the cotton field, came back a few days ago, and Sister Ping, who was already one and a half years old, couldn't recognize him and refused to call her father.

Xiao Nuan touched her still flat belly, just looking forward to three months soon, and she would be able to leave the council in three months.

At this moment, Xuan Cheng, who was sent to sentry, walked in quickly, "Princess, Anren is out of the village." ”

Xiao Nuan was waiting for this moment, she immediately stood up and took the carriage to the fourth village. After Jinzhuang, she didn't go back to the main courtyard, got out of the car and walked straight south along the one-foot-wide ridge road.

Xuan Wu felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "If the princess wants to eat melons and fruits, go down and pick them for you, be careful of slippery roads." ”

In this season, how can there be melons that can be eaten raw in the field, and Xiao Nuan's footsteps keep going south. Seeing her like this, Tian Shouyi, who came back to get things, hurriedly followed, and persuaded in a low voice, "Is the little aunt going to Lijiazhuang, by all means." ”

"No, I'm going to check if the walls of the new base are strong." Xiao Nuan was serious for a while.

All......

When he arrived at the south wall of one and a half people, Xiao Nuan looked at the wall, turned his head to Xuan Wu and said, "You take me up to have a look." ”

"The subordinates don't dare." Xuan Wu refused, the princess was pregnant, what could happen if she was injured.

Xiao Nuan's face sank, "When the third master sent you to me, how did he tell you?" This is the fourth village, I just want to climb the wall to see what Lijiazhuang burns into, can't I? ”

This one...... Xuan Wu was still a little hesitant.

Xiao Nuan said coldly, "Shouyi, wait for me to go up." ”

"The walls are pointed, and there is nowhere to stay. The little aunt waited for a while, and went to get a ladder. Tian Shouyi put the blanket on his shoulder on the ground, turned around and went to get the ladder.

Tian Shouyi, the four senior brothers, only listened to the princess's words. Xuan Wu saw that she couldn't stop it, so she had to step forward and hold Xiao Nuan's arm, "Princess, you can't see anything when you go up to the wall." ”

"Let's see, if it doesn't work, let's talk about it." Xiao Nuan said eagerly, if she didn't hurry up, she wouldn't be able to see anything when her mother came back.

After moving the ladder, Xuan Wu protected Xiao Nuan to climb up, half of his body was above the wall, and looked out.

The fire-blackened courtyard was surrounded by dark green, like a large piece of dog skin plaster falling into the grass, so obscure that people wanted to remove it immediately. Xiao Nuan searched inch by inch with her eyes, and then climbed up the ladder for four steps.

Seeing that the princess's feet were already higher than the wall, the guards were terrified, the ladder and the wall were strong enough, but if the third master knew that the princess had climbed so high, they would be punished inevitablely.

Climb high and look far away. The fire in Lijiazhuang burned very thoroughly, and the roofs of many houses were burned off. She stood on the ladder for a long time before slowly descending, her eyes lowering and not knowing what she was thinking.

Seeing that the princess landed safely, all the guards and long-term workers breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess, Anren will enter the village soon!" Xuan Cheng walked over quickly and reminded in a low voice.

Xiao Nuan immediately came back to her senses, "Quickly put the ladder down and hide it, and Xuan Wu plucked a wild grape for me!" ”

Everyone moved in response, and Xiao Nuan had just walked a dozen steps with the wild grape vines in when the Qin family came in from outside the village, carrying a lotus leaf bag in his hand.

Seeing Xiao Nuan, Qin handed over the lotus leaf bag to He Feng and walked over quickly.

Xiao Nuan was extremely glad that the courtyard wall was replaced with bricks, otherwise now her mother would not have laughed, but scolded. She raised her little face and raised the wild grape tree in her hand, "Mother, you see, this one is a lot darker......"

Halfway through speaking, Xiao Nuan found that most of the wild grapes in his hand were still green, and he was distressed. This is a good thing that she and Xiaocao deliberately left behind and waited for it to get dark in the autumn before eating, which is more in line with her appetite than Fanwaigong fruit.

Qin took the grape vine and helped her to walk towards the yard, "If you want to eat, let Xuan Wu and them help you pick it, and keep an eye on what this boss is running in the sun." My mother bought a few catties of good tenderloin, what do you want to eat? ”

"I want sweet and sour tenderloin." Xiao Nuan said immediately.

Hearing that her daughter wanted to eat sour, Qin's face blossomed, "Okay, good, my mother will make it for you, what else do you want to eat?" ”

"Stir-fried cucumber shreds in vinegar." Xiao Nuan walked forward with her mother, reporting the names of the dishes one after another to attract her mother's attention, for fear that she would turn around and find the ladder.

It's sour again, Qin's is even happier, sour and spicy girl, the girl hasn't left, she must be a big fat boy.

After going back to the house and talking to Xiao Nuan for a while, Qin went to the kitchen to get busy. Xiao Nuan couldn't smell the smell of raw meat now, so she stood under the window and stared at the shadows of the trees on the ground, looking focused and serious.

According to Xuan Wu's description, when Mrs. Li returned to the Li Mansion, she checked the salute in the same way, and it was impossible for the female scorpion to be brought into the Li Mansion. After they left, Senior Brother and Li Zhong led people to search Zhuangzi back and forth twice, but they found nothing.

If she was the one who hid the scorpion, where would she hide it? Spinning in his mind the houses and courtyards of Lijiazhuang that he had just seen, Xiao Nuan pondered carefully.
