Chapter 264: Undisguised

Lily agreed, and then heard Mrs. Zeng ask, "Qinglu hasn't come back yet?" This kid, it's just a matter of going to join in the excitement, why did he go for so long? ā€

As soon as the words fell, I heard the little girl outside the door say, "The young master is back." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Then Jiang Qinglu walked in with a fan, and when he saw the white fungus soup, he smiled and said, "Mother doesn't want to drink it?" That's just cheap for me, and it's like a fire outside, it's really hot. ā€

Madame Zeng smiled and pushed the bowl to him, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the weather is hot, otherwise you would have to watch the waterwheel with those tenants until evening?" Really, the bigger it is, the more it doesn't work, and you don't want to think about it, it's your own identity that falls. ā€

"How so?" Jiang Qinglu smiled indifferently: "This is a major event related to people's livelihood." I went to see it, don't say it, Su Ri you all said that Zexian was not doing his job, and he didn't even want to see this son with the Marquis of Zhenning, but this time, he really did a great thing for the people of the world. With this waterwheel, in the event of a drought in the future, the farmland near the river can finally be saved. ā€

"Is it really that good? If that's the case, then it's a great merit. It's just that I've never heard of this kind of waterwheel before, so it's hard to know how the kid from the Jing family came up with it. ā€

"I asked my friends, in fact, there are waterwheels in Lingnan, but they are very simple, very small, and have limited functions. This time, Zexian listened to the people from Lingnan talk about the waterwheel, so he had such an idea, and sure enough, after his processing and improvement, this big waterwheel can be promoted in various places in the future, and it will have a great effect. ā€

Madame Zeng nodded slowly, she was not really interested in these things, she was concerned about another matter.

This time, the Baoguo Mansion and the Zhenning Marquis Mansion came to the Grange with great fanfare, which greatly violated the daily low-key style of the two mansions, in order to dissipate the increasingly fierce rumors.

This was Fang Caiwei's idea, she and Mrs. Chang came to the door in person, saying that "it is better to be blocked"; He also said that the more rumors are rampant, the more important it is to put on an upright attitude; It is also said that this kind of rumor is just an after-dinner conversation, and that if it is well guided, the people will soon forget about it and move on to a topic they are more concerned about, and in this regard, the waterwheel is undoubtedly much more important than the Champion Lang and the Lady of the Prince.

Mrs. Zeng, who persuaded her like this, was moved, especially after her husband and son came back, she agreed with Fang Caiwei's theory. That's why there is a huge joint travel between the two governments; There was a purposeful and directional discussion in the crowd of those who started to cheer. Even if this is the case, the Baoguo Mansion is equivalent to advertising the waterwheel of the Zhenning Hou Mansion, but as long as this annoying rumor stops, Mrs. Zeng will not care.

Because he asked Jiang Qinglu: "Can you inquire about the situation in the capital?" What do people say? ā€

Jiang Qinglu drank the white fungus soup in one go, then put down the bowl to wipe his mouth, nodded and said: "The effect is very good, and now the streets and alleys are talking about this waterwheel." Today, after the waterwheel was tried out in person, it was almost a success, and it could be mass-produced and put into use with a little more modifications, and I expected that the news would soon spread back to the capital, and by that time, the rumors would probably have dissipated. ā€

Mrs. Zeng sighed and said softly: "Maybe I'm a little greedy, what I want is not just dissipation, what I want is that the rumors are self-defeating." ā€

Jiang Qinglu said with a smile: "Actually, no one talks about this anymore, and the rumors are tantamount to self-defeating." Could it be that my mother still expects those people who have spread rumors to come to our house, kneel down and apologize that they were wrong, so that they can only know that they were deceived and ruined the reputation of me and Mrs. Fang? Hehe! People are dying to save face, how many people are willing to do this? Even if you know in your heart that you are wrong, you will never say it. Otherwise, how could there be such a saying that a dead duck has a hard mouth. Even if this situation is the best now, everyone knows in their hearts that Mrs. Fang and I are innocent, we can't send people out, and if we catch one, we will make people admit our mistakes, right? Mrs. Fang is right, if she really does this, she is afraid that the person with that good face will be aroused, but she will insist on it, just like Daddy arrested people and put them in prison before, which will be inferior......"

"Okay, okay, I'll just say a word, and that's all you say. I don't know what is so powerful about that Fang clan, listening to what you say, I admire her very much. How do you say that he is also the champion of the new department, and in the future, he will be an official residence or even go to the pavilion to worship the prime minister, and he respects a woman like this, like words? ā€

"What's not like that? It's not that I don't know the temperament of my son, and I appreciate and admire talented and virtuous people. Although Mrs. Fang is a woman, she is a strange woman who does not let her eyebrows, and Ze Ming has a good relationship with her son, what is wrong with this? ā€

Mrs. Zeng snorted coldly and said: "Zeming young man went out on the expedition, and now I heard that he has won two more battles in Mobei, if you admire and admire him, what else do I have to say?" It's just anything else, you won the champion that day, why did you say hello to Fang's? It's not that you are reckless, and there will be this period of turmoil later? ā€

Jiang Qinglu shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, and said with a smile: "My son is a genius, he doesn't have a little profligateness, how can he be embarrassed to call a genius......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Mrs. Zeng pick up the soft pillow beside her, this guy is very experienced, and immediately stood up and said, "My son remembered that there is still something to do." Then he smeared oil on the soles of his feet and fled.

Here Mrs. Zeng heard him ask the girl where the sorbet was outside, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then frowned again, and secretly said that this child is older, and now he has a reputation again, and he is doing editing in the Hanlin Academy. Everyone is married and started a business, we are good, the industry has been established, the family has not yet been completed, it is time to find him a good girl to marry, but his eyes are above the top, this is not to look at that and he is not to be seen, he has a powerful mouth, but whenever he mentions a personal family, he is criticized for nothing, should he not die The boy has some wrong thoughts in his heart, right? No, after going back this time, you can't let his temperament come again, and you must set up a family affair for him.

"You have been in the cold palace for three years, but the craftsmanship of this kung fu tea has not fallen at all."

In the Fengyi Palace, Concubine Jing and the emperor sat opposite each other, the gentle beauty in front of the meeting was light, the clear tea was poured into the delicate teacup in the hot air, the action was elegant and skillful, this situation was really pleasing to the eye, and the emperor couldn't help but praise it.

Concubine Jing smiled lightly and said lightly: "The concubine has liked to cook tea since she was sensible, and over the years, I don't know how many times I have cooked, this skill has been carved into the bones, and the things carved into the bones, where is it so easy to wear off?" ā€
