Chapter 182 Suspicious clouds in Dongshanzhuang (16)

The other servants in the village had prepared breakfast, but Liu Zhiyuan asked the servant to arrange breakfast at the place where Li Yunniang and Sun Qiniang stayed. Chen Bing praised him for being intent. The two went to the west wing together and used breakfast together. During this period, Chen Bing briefly talked about what happened. Both of them sighed after hearing this. Li Yunniang was timid by nature, and she felt even more scared when she heard it. Fortunately, Chen Bing comforted her for a few words and finally ate some Laba porridge and meat soup cooked cakes.

Chen Bing did not sleep all night, and in the case of hard work, although he had breakfast, the feeling of fatigue surged up quickly. She and Liu Zhiyuan didn't say much, so she slowly snuggled into his arms and fell asleep deeply. Although Liu Zhiyuan was also sleepy, fortunately, after he had deep internal strength, the feeling of fatigue was driven away without a trace. He was afraid that if he moved, he would wake up Chen Bing in his arms, so he asked Sun Qiniang to add a quilt on Chen Bing, and he kept holding the person he was thinking about.

After about an hour and a half, Chen Bing rubbed his eyes and woke up slowly. After waking up, he saw that he had been sleeping in Liu Zhiyuan's arms. Although he was a little shy, he felt sweet but a little guilty. He straightened up generously and said playfully: "If you let me sleep like this, aren't you afraid of your arms being sore? "

Liu Zhiyuan smiled faintly and said, "You haven't been asleep all night, so you must be sleepy and tired. I'm afraid that moving will disturb you, so I let you fall asleep all the time."

Chen Bing said with a little distressed feeling: "But you haven't closed your eyes all night."

Liu Zhiyuan still smiled faintly and said, "For more than an hour, I have been reciprocating my luck. This fatigue has long been driven away. I am fine."

At this time, Fan Youshou's quite respectful voice came from outside the door: "Officer Liu, Mrs. Chen, the ship is ready, and you can set off and return to Huzhou."

The two looked at each other and left the house. They first went to the mourning hall of Fan Deguang and the other three, and gave a brief sacrifice. The mourning hall was also extremely simple and even more hidden. Chen Bing sighed in his heart, thinking that to avoid Fan Decheng's knowledge, this would be a helpless move.

After the worship, Fan Youshou led Chen Bing and four others to the prepared boat together with Wu Xinggong.

Everyone returned to Huzhou Wharf, Fan Youshou gave the ceremony and returned to Dongshan Villa. Liu San had already been waiting by car, but Chen Bing looked back at the boat that was gradually moving away, sighed in his heart, and said to Liu Zhiyuan: "Knowledge and Action, it only took more than a dozen hours to go back and forth, but why do I feel like I have passed so many dozens of days, it really seems like a different life."

Liu Zhiyuan also looked back and sneered in his heart, saying, "Fan Luming, Fan Luming, you have been calculating since you were a child, but you didn't expect to have calculating now, but you lost your life. Humph, you are really confused. But you can rest assured that since I promised you, you will definitely do it, and you and I will leave forever." He thought about it in his heart, and then ignored it, turned around, hugged Chen Bing, and said, "Let's go."

The four of them followed Wu Xinggong back to his yard, which was not very big as Wu Xinggong said when he was in Dongshan Villa. Fortunately, although the sparrow was small and had all the internal organs. In addition to the Dongqin that had not been used for a long time, it was a bit deserted and dilapidated. The main house and the wing room were quite neat and clean. The most important thing was that Chen Bing, the two stores, was very favored, and the store was just facing the street, and the street was very lively. If you open a self-made fire shop, the transaction would be very easy to do.

Chen Bing was very satisfied with the yard, and Liu Zhiyuan looked at it and felt good. He especially the jujube tree in the yard. He laughed and said that it was autumn next year, so he came here to pick dates and eat jujubes. Fortunately, when he was in the village, Liu Zhiyuan had negotiated with Wu Xinggong for the price. Now Wu Xinggong has found the Yaman Middle School Guardian, signed a document, and handed over the money, the yard was truly in the hands of Chen Bing.

By the time all this was done, it was already noon. Today, the weather was very good and the climate was much warmer than the previous few days. There was no snow in the city, so it was no longer necessary to come back. After seeing Wu Xinggong off, Liu Zhiyuan suggested that it would be better to wait in Huzhou City and find a restaurant to have a good meal before going back.

Chen Bing didn't think so. After locking the yard, she said, "Since I'm still rich, I think this is the case. Why don't you and I go to the 1,800 acres of land at the foot of Bianshan first to take a look. Although it's winter now, things will still have to happen next year.

Prepare in advance, and after going to see it, you will have confidence in your heart. How should you arrange it, and you will also have a clear idea in your heart. What do you think of knowing and doing?”

Liu Zhiyuan thought that it was still early, so he nodded and agreed. Then he hurriedly found a shop himself and carefully selected some snacks and pastries to put them in the car to make it easier to satisfy hunger when he was hungry on the road. After Chen Bing and the other three got on the carriage, Liu Zhiyuan also rode his own horse and left Huzhou City with Liu San.

Today, the official road is no longer as muddy and difficult as yesterday, and it is much easier to walk. The horse ran happily, spreading its hooves and running happily.

After about half an hour, Liu Zhiyuan and Liu San had already arrived at the foot of Bianshan. Liu Zhiyuan asked several people according to the land deed, and went around and took another half an hour, but he still had not found the 1,800 acres of land.

Liu Zhiyuan held the horse, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious. Chen Bing had already got off the carriage and was with Liu Zhiyuan. Liu Zhiyuan looked at the land deed in his hand repeatedly, then looked around, and said to Chen Bing: "As shown in the land deed, as those people said just now, it should be here, but the father-in-law just said that there was a small stone bridge, but there was no bridge here. Could it be that he pointed the wrong direction?"

Chen Bing had never thought about this, and he had no other choice but to advise Liu Zhiyuan not to be anxious. As the two were talking, a man carrying a load came towards him. Although the man's face was dark, he looked quite energetic. Liu Zhiyuan stepped forward and bowed slightly and asked, "Please stay, do you know that the land at the foot of Benshan is recorded as the Fan family?"

The man put down the pick on his shoulder and asked, "What do you ask the Fan family?" As he said, he looked at the people in front of him with his eyes flashing slightly, and his tone seemed to be full of alert.

Liu Zhiyuan and Chen Bing looked at each other, knowing that there was a door, but Liu Zhiyuan was dissatisfied with the man's alert face. He endured the unhappiness in his heart. He took out the land deed and the essay, and said coldly: "This is the land deed and the essay. Now the Fan family has been sold to me. If the young man knows it, I hope to inform you."

The man seemed to recognize a few words. He turned his head and looked at the words in Liu Zhiyuan's hand, pointed at the foot, and said, "Yes, this is indeed the seal of the Fan family. This official, with this official road as the boundary, the land to the west of the official road is all belonged to the Fan family."

Liu Zhiyuan turned his head and looked at it a few times, but he still didn't see any little stone bridge. He thought he had been deceived by his father-in-law just now, and he couldn't help but feel angry at this moment. He said with a slightly ugly expression: "Do you know who is in charge of this place now? If it's convenient, please take me to wait."

The man said repeatedly, "It's Fan Sheng who is in charge. I'll take you to his house now."

Chen Bing asked, "Brother, shouldn't there be a small stone bridge here?"

The man carried the load and said as he walked, "Oh, I think it's something. You must have heard of something and passed a small stone bridge, which is the Fan family's land. When I found it, I didn't see any stone bridge, and I felt suspicious."

Chen Bing smiled and nodded, and the man said, "You little lady, don't know anything. More than 40 years ago, this official road was originally a small river, and there was a small stone bridge on the river. Therefore, the villagers here often call this place by the small stone bridge. However, the world has changed. Over time, the river has dried up and gradually filled with the surrounding soil. A few years ago, the government built an official road here to facilitate the entry and exit of the villagers here. The name of Xiaoshiqiao has continued to this day and has not changed."

Although Liu Zhiyuan felt relieved after hearing this, he still felt that the father-in-law was deliberately making things difficult for him. Fortunately, the anger in his heart came quickly and disappeared quickly.

After about two incense sticks, everyone arrived at the gate of the courtyard surrounded by a low earth wall. Perhaps the short wall was disrepaired and there were unknown weeds on it, and the door panel was mottled, as if it had not been repaired for a long time.

The man stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, a man who was about 34 or 5 years old opened the gate of the courtyard. When he saw everyone at the door, he was stunned at first, but saw that the man was also among them. He asked him, "Wang Er, what do you want to do with these strangers in front of my house?"

Chen Bing stepped forward, and after a great blessing, he told the story of the thousand-eight-hundred-acre land. The man's expression changed slightly after hearing this, and seemed to be a little unbelievable. After seeing the land deeds and the documents,

He sighed slightly and said, "So that's it. Oh, little lady, I am Fan Sheng. I was just a servant of the Fan family. After the master bought this land, he sent me to stay here to take care of this place." Then he said to Wang Er, "Wang Er, hurry up and call everyone to me and meet the new master."

Fan Sheng really wanted to know what happened to the Fan family. He had to sell 1,800 acres of land to others. However, he just thought about it, but he didn't dare to say it. He hurriedly let everyone enter the yard, called out his wife and children, and gave them tea to everyone. After a lot of trouble, Fan Sheng bowed to everyone and said nervously: "I don't know what the official and the wife are going to come today?"

Chen Bing said, "Don't be nervous. Today I'm just passing by here. I suggest you come and have a look, so that you can get to know everyone."

Fan Sheng was a little broad-minded, but he still cared about the Fan family, so he seemed a little cramped.

It is winter now, and there is no other thing to do except fermenting the fields. In just half a cup of tea, Wang Er found many villagers. Everyone gathered in front of Fan Sheng's yard in groups. Some were whispering and some were looking in with their toes, all of whom wanted to see the new owner's appearance.
