She fell out after crying at the wrong grave

That night, at Wei’s house.

The lights in the room were dim. It was late at night and the servants were all asleep in the outer room leaning against the stove.

Wei Guohui tossed and turned, then finally put on his clothes and paced back and forth.

Wei Guohui was very panicked because he hadn't seen "him" send anyone.

It was actually because of his laziness that such an accident happened. The original plan was for several people to climb up the high mountains outside the city, push all the thick snow on the mountain down the cliff, and then pour water on it to form solid ice.

This artificially created congestion and slippery conditions on the entire official road.

There is little dry soil to prevent slipping on snowy days. According to previous practice, the state government needs to allocate money to buy coarse salt or gravel to spread on the road to ensure smooth passage of vehicles and horses.

The price of coarse salt and gravel is similar, but coarse salt is a bit more expensive. In order to get more money, Wei Guohui always went to a fixed place to buy coarse salt at a low price. The quality was also poor, and it could barely make the road surface non-slip when sprinkled on it.

Originally, the roads in the city were more conspicuous, so Wei Guohui specifically asked Liu Qingming not to clear the snow.

This woman who showed up unexpectedly ruined the three of them!

How could he explain this? Wei Guohui paused and sighed.

There was a knock on the door suddenly.

It was the middle of the night and there were only two faint knocks, but no one was called in.

It can be seen that he is not one of their servants.

Wei Guohui's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he stood there not daring to move.

It rang twice more before he went to open the door with weak hands and feet.

The man came in a gloomy manner, wearing a black robe covering from head to toe and a hood, and walked into the hall without saying a word.

Wei Guohui broke out in a cold sweat and quickly stuck his head out to look outside the door. After confirming that there was no one there, he swallowed and closed the door tightly.

After taking off the hood, Wei Guohui realized that this person was not "him".

Wei Guohui pulled at his collar and breathed heavily as if he had come back to life. He sat down at the table and poured two cups of tea and placed them opposite him.

The man in black did not sit down or drink the tea. He just watched Wei Guohui gulp down his drink.

"After messing up the job, Engineer Wei still has the heart to drink tea?" the man in black said sarcastically.

Wei Guohui was not afraid of this man. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve wildly, and his tone was not very kind. "I didn't do a good thing, but I can't just die of thirst now, right?"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. "I have helped my master accomplish many things in the past, but things are different now! Who knew that Hengzhi was so lucky..."

"It doesn't matter if Wei Gongcao vents his anger on me. I'm just here to pass on a message from my master. I'm not a prominent figure." The man in black said sarcastically, "Construction and repair are all under the charge of Gongcao. After the new year, Wuling Road will expand its martial arts field and move the patrol camp there."

After hearing this, Wei Guohui paused what he was doing.

"Build a patrol camp, and the master will give you another chance. Remember, don't treat this guy as your father. The little wolf may not be that ferocious, but he is much more vigilant than the old wolf. The master has been patient for a long time, and he cannot lose his temper now."

This is half true, and half nonsense.

Although Wei Guohui had never seen "him", he knew from his instructions that this was a greedy person and was good at brainwashing people.

In the past, he was almost tricked into placing a woman next to Heng Qi. Fortunately, he came to his senses for a moment and pulled himself in time.

Although the old wolf loves to play it safe, he is also more ferocious. The young wolf is his son, how can he be easily dealt with?
But this time he was indeed careless.

Whether given a chance or not, who else can “he” find to do the job now besides himself?
Wei Guohui sneered inwardly. As long as he died immediately, Hengzhi would be able to arrange his own people to enter the Gongcao right away.

He was not quite sure how many masters there were in each department of the prefecture, but from now on, the masters would no longer have any influence on construction.

Who isn’t popular? Huh.

"You go back and report to the master, and tell him that I, Old Wei, have taught him a lesson and I will not fail again next time." Wei Guohui waved his hand, wanting to send him away as if he were sending someone else away.

The man in black is used to it.

Although Wei Guohui was a clever man, he was not someone who could be of great use. If his master had not discovered his corruption, Wei Guohui would not have worked for him.

He donated money to get this position and worked in the Cao for more than ten years before he reached his current position as Gong Cao, which was not without bribery and manipulation of people.

The man in black knew that he was a chess piece, but Wei Guohui was not even a chess piece.

The two sides looked down on each other. The man in black bowed slightly and walked out.
-
On the outskirts of the city, patrol camp.

Hengzhi used a trick to escape, leaving "Zhao Hou" in the city, and he gained his freedom.

"What do you mean?" The young marquis was dressed neatly in a black robe with tight sleeves and his long hair tied up high, with Yun Cheng who had sneaked out following behind him.

"Yun Cong has just returned from Shuzhong and is pretending to be you in the room."

Hengzhi broke off half of the pancake and gave it to him. "Well, what else?"

"Last night, the hidden guards squatted on the tree all night and indeed found someone entering Wei Guohui's room. He came out again in less than half an hour. But he was wrapped too tightly, so we couldn't see his face."

They arrived here early in the morning. Hengzhi followed the exercises for the whole morning, and with an empty stomach, he could only eat bread bitterly.

What Yun Cheng said was basically within his range of guesswork.

I had expected it would take at least a month or two to see some ripples on the water, but I didn't expect these people to act so hastily.

But it was just a coincidence that it was A'ao who accidentally interrupted Wei Guohui's good deeds, and saved him a sum of money that he knew would be embezzled.

Her shop started to improve within two or three days. She was afraid that if she installed both sides at once, no one would be interested, so she wisely installed only one side.

But A's snow shoveling tool is really useful.

At the patrol camp, Hengzhi asked people to make a few according to the blueprints, which was faster than digging with a shovel bit by bit.

Not to mention sand, soil and coarse salt, the cost of shoveling snow is negligible compared to these two things.

"If I were to ask your subordinates, this time it's all thanks to my new wife." Yun Cheng smiled with ill intentions, "You're a newlywed, but you're staying in the military camp every day. Why don't you reward me properly...ah!"

It turns out that nothing good comes of being crazy. Hengzhi turned around and saw Yuncheng with one foot stuck in a hole in the ground, standing there watching indifferently.

"Master, please help me, this hole is so deep!" Yun Cheng struggled for a few times, and even his ankle was stuck deeply in it. He looked like he wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Come on, why don't you continue? Aren't you good at making up stories? Who are you going to reward?" Hengzhi acted like a master and mocked Yuncheng from a superior position.

Except for Yunli who was adopted by his mother, Xu, Yuncheng and Yuncong grew up with Hengzhi. Putting aside their identities, they were as close as brothers.

So when joining in the fun, Hengzhi was particularly wicked.

"I was wrong, master. I was too talkative." Yun Cheng admitted his mistake decisively because he suddenly realized that something in the cave was biting his feet.

Hengzhi extended his arm over, and Yuncheng used the force to pull his leg out. He squatted on the ground and looked into the cave in surprise.

"What are you doing?" Hengzhi took a few steps forward, but found that the man was still staring at the hole on the ground.

Yun Cheng reached his hand in, touched a furry ball, and decisively grabbed it out.

It's a litter of little rabbits.

This made the young marquis very happy.

Two white ones and one gray one, all are a little bigger than a palm and very adorable.

Heng Qi leaned over to take a look, and the white rabbit moved its mouth and licked his fingers until they were wet. "Okay, then you can take this litter of rabbits back to your wife."

He thought back to the day when they first met. If Ah'ao hadn't been tied up with a silver lock, it would be no exaggeration to say that with her abilities she could run faster than a rabbit.

I think she would like this little thing.

then--

Ah'ao looked at Yun Cheng who was smiling innocently in front of her, and suddenly she couldn't understand anyone in this house.

These past few days, whenever Aunt Zhao saw her, she always looked like she was worried about something and hesitated to speak, and she wouldn't say anything when asked.

The little girl Yunli would always stare at her and laugh for no reason.

The same is true for Yuncheng today.

Did you ask someone to curse you?
"Is there something wrong?" Ah-yi asked tentatively.

The decorations in the shop were basically finished. In order to make up for the fact that Ah-yi was left alone to take care of the shop that day by sweeping the snow, Mrs. Zhou strongly urged her to go home and write wedding couplets and blessing characters.

It happened to be a warm day, so I wrote in the yard. Seeing Yun Cheng like this, the ink almost fell on the paper.

Rabbits can't make sounds, so A'ao didn't notice it.

Yun Cheng brought three rabbits from behind and brought them in front of her. The new wife opened her red lips slightly without any image, with a look of surprise on her face.

"Where did this rabbit come from?" Ah'ao quickly put down her pen, cleared the red paper and held the rabbit on the table.

Yun Cheng didn't know how to catch rabbits. He kept pulling them by their ears, which made Ah Yi feel very sorry for them. However, the hind legs of the three rabbits were tied with cloth strips, so they wouldn't run away.

"Madam, guess where this came from?"

Seeing that he was presenting a treasure, Ah'ao couldn't help but lower her head and take a closer look at the strip of cloth.

The material of the cloth felt familiar to Ah-yi, and the touch was even more familiar.

The dark pattern on it...

"Hengzhi ran to the frontier just to catch rabbits?" Ah'ao really didn't understand. She frowned and showed a strange expression.

Didn't I just tease him a few words? Why did you leave your house and go outside to catch rabbits?
This question made Yun Cheng scratch his head, not knowing how to explain, "This... the master only said to bring it back to the lady, it doesn't matter whether it is stewed or kept, the other subordinates don't know."

Ah'ao touched the rabbit and let the little thing lick her fingers until they were wet.

Well.

You can't stew it.

With just this little bit, you won’t be able to stew meat even if you use three of them.

"Oh, right." She thought of another thing. "Manager Wu's son is getting married on the Lantern Festival. Your master is looking after my business, isn't he?"

"That's really not true!" Yun Cheng immediately retorted, "The master has only met Shopkeeper Wu a few times and is not familiar with his family affairs."

Oh, A'ao nodded.

So she admitted that she deliberately let Manager Wu sell the shop to her, right?

Yun Cheng saw that his new wife narrowed her eyes slightly, and suddenly realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.

"Tell him to come back tomorrow. I have something to tell him."

It's over. Looking at the new lady's pensive look, it must be nothing good.

Why does he always run into such a hot potato? Yun Cheng wailed helplessly in his heart.

The results turned out to be just as he expected.

Early in the morning of the third day, I had just rushed back from the patrol camp when I heard a commotion in the mansion.

Yun Cheng ran to the inner house in three or two steps. The servants surrounded the master's bedroom and no one dared to step forward.

He pushed through the crowd and tried to go in to take a look, and then he understood why no one came closer.

A porcelain vase was smashed out, and the fragments flew everywhere, and even a piece flew to his feet.

But this is still a long way off.

then--

"Without the Holy Lord's intervention, how could someone as lowly as you be able to enter the Heng family?
