    Fang Jinshi let go of her hand, sat down again and said, "Although the official position will not cost me my life, his family will not give up easily."

    Qiao Ling'er asked: "Are they here?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "He also has a sister. After he died, his sister was all alone. She no longer has any relatives in the world. It is very pitiful."

    Qiao Ling'er couldn't help but sigh and said: "Yes." She must have thought of herself. To a certain extent, she had the same fate, and she could empathize with it.

    Fang Jinshi observed her expression and continued: "It's her brother who is bad, not her. Should I ignore the past grudges, take care of her, and help her get through the difficulties, right?"

    Qiao Ling'er nodded without answering. Fang Jinshi said: "So I took her into the room and asked her to come home and be company with everyone. If there are more people and liveliness, she won't feel lonely and helpless."

    Hearing this, Qiao Ling'er looked up at him, then slowly lowered her head, with a very strange look on her face. Fang Jinshi continued, "You won't object, right?"

    Qiao Ling'er lowered her head and said: "II havewhat's the pointagainst my identity." She had not stuttered for a long time, and now she stuttered again. Fang Jinshi said: "You are  The people around me, the people who treat me best, of course have their reasons. If you don¡¯t like what I do, then don¡¯t let her in.¡±

    Qiao Ling'er said: "II didn't say noI don't like it anymore." She felt extremely uncomfortable, but what Fang Jinshi said felt sweet. Fang Jinshi said, "Just agree, in a few days  When she comes, if possible, talk to her more, care about her, and make her think more openly."

    Qiao Ling'er said: "II'm afraid I can't do it."

    Fang Jinshi said: "Don't be afraid. Just pay more attention to her and see if she does anything too much. Then tell me later that she still blames us for killing her brother and always wants to take revenge.  She won¡¯t harm me, but I¡¯m afraid she¡¯ll have bad intentions for other people in the family.¡±

    Only then did Qiao Ling'er understand what Fang Jinshi meant, she lowered her head and said, "II will do my best."

    Seeing that his goal was achieved, Fang Jinshi gave her the cloth he brought, and gave her half of the snacks, and then said: "What you do makes me most at ease. I'm leaving, and you have a good rest."

    Qiao Ling'er said: "Do you still want to wash clothes?"

    Fang Jinshi didn't want to trouble her at first, but he wanted to ask for something from her and please Qiao Ling'er, so he agreed. Qiao Ling'er found his clothes and Fang Jinshi took a look and it turned out to be one from the last time they went to Bianliang together.  He thought the clothes were old and asked her to throw them away, but he didn't expect that she still kept them.

    Fang Jinshi changed his clothes and carried the remaining snacks and fruits to Huang Jinmian's residence. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Huang Jinmian watering the trees with a wooden bucket. After not seeing him for the past few days, he planted a few seedlings in the yard.  Tree.

    Fang Jinshi rushed over and said loudly and exaggeratedly: "Who told you to move around? I will do it."

    He took the bucket, watered the saplings, put down the bucket and said to Huang Jinmian, "Didn't I tell you not to do anything and just take a good rest? Why are you so disobedient?"

    "It's not that serious," Huang Jinmian said. "It's not a heavy job."

    Fang Jinshi said: "That won't work either."

    Jin Mian looked at him and said, "Wherever I have been these past few days, I haven't seen you."

    Fang Jinshi approached her and said, "Do you miss me?"

    "I don't think about it," Huang Jinmian said.

    Fang Jinshi chuckled and said, "I've been a little busy with business recently and I've been out of town."

    Huang Jinmian said: "Where have you gone?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "It's all about business. You don't understand even if I tell you." He was afraid that Jin Mianduo would ask any more questions, so he knelt down to look at the seedlings and said, "What kind of trees are these?"

    Jin Mian replied: "Peach tree."

    Fang Jinshi asked: "Peach tree? Can you plant peach trees at this time?"

    Huang Jinmian asked back: "Can't the seeds survive at this time?"

    Fang Jinshi didn't know this either. He just felt that the season was not right, so he had to say: "I don't know, I planted it no matter what it was. Why did you plant a peach tree all of a sudden?"

    Huang Jinmian said: "I was reading Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Spring" a few days ago. Tao Gong wrote about the beauty of peach blossoms, saying, 'The grass is delicious and the fallen flowers are colorful.'  Let¡¯s try planting some peach trees.¡±

    Fang Jinshi said: "I think you are just greedy for peaches, but if you want to eat the peaches from such small saplings, you will have to wait for several years."

      Huang Jinmian said: "No matter how beautiful things are, once they come into your mouth, they will be so vulgar and boring."

    Fang Jinshi laughed loudly and said: "I am a businessman who smells like copper. Naturally, the first thing that comes to my mind is that I planted a tree. When will it bear fruit for me?"

    Huang Jinmian said: "Yes, my whole body stinks, please stay away from me."

    Instead, Fang Jinshi approached her, put his arm around her waist and said, "We are renting here. I'm afraid we will move out before the peach blossoms bloom."

    Huang Jinmian said: "You are so rich, you can just buy this place."

    Fang Jinshi said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, not only did I buy this place, I also had people shovel out all the other trees, flowers and plants here and plant them into peach trees. I planted all the free areas and turned this place into a peach garden.  OK?"

    Huang Jinmian said: "The book "Ten Continents in the Sea" says that there is a blue sea thousands of miles away from the shore of the East China Sea. The water is sweet and there is an island in the middle. The island is covered with peach trees and the scenery is pleasant. Think about spring when the flowers are blooming.  , the peach blossoms on the island are blooming, and the fallen flowers are colorful. It would be great if we could listen to the piano and make tea under the peach blossom trees and watch the blue sea grow." She nestled her body against his chest, as if she had been swimming in the peach forest.  among.

    Fang Jinshi said: "Is this your biggest dream? Okay, I promise you, I will make it come true for you."

    Huang Jinmian said: "Really?"

    Fang Jinshi reached into her clothes, pressed her belly and said, "In front of our son, I promise you."

    "How are you sure it's a son? What if it's a daughter?" Huang Jinmian said.

    Fang Jinshi said: "If it is a son, I will let him inherit the family business. If it is a daughter, I will buy an island like this and plant it full of peach blossoms as a dowry."

    Huang Jinmian chuckled and said, "My father-in-law, Taishan, is so generous."

    Fang Jinshi also said: "What a stingy mother-in-law."

    The two laughed for a while, and Huang Jinmian said, "Let's go back."

    Fang Jinshi said, "I'll carry you back to the house. It won't be good if you're tired from walking." He bent down and picked up Huang Jinmian, weighed the weight and said, "Our child has gained at least another ten kilograms."

    Huang Jinmian hugged his neck and said, "It's not that exaggerated."

    Fang Jinshi said: "That means you have gained weight."

    Huang Jinmian smiled lowly and said, "You're talking nonsense again." She was already smiling, and she couldn't help herself with her happiness.

    Fang Jinshi carried her into the house, chatting and laughing with her as he ate the snacks and fruits he had brought. When he turned around, he saw some needlework red cloth lying on the bedside, so he picked it up and said, "You don't want to play the piano or write now?"  Did you learn to make clothes instead?"

    Huang Jinmian said: "As soon as a child is born, he needs to wear clothes. If I don't learn this, why should you learn it? How can being a parent be so easy?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "How about I find someone to teach you how to do this? I'll come and serve you by the way."

    Huang Jinmian said: "Who is it?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "You will know in a few days."

    Huang Jinmian said: "It's probably the romantic debt you incurred outside. I couldn't shirk it, so I had to take over the house and become a concubine. But I deliberately said it nice, saying that I wanted someone to take care of me. I don't need someone to take care of me."  , just let her serve Mr. Liang, she is the main wife, and it is natural to serve her. Let one concubine serve another concubine, you can¡¯t think of it"

    After scolding her for a while, Fang Jinshi said speechlessly: "Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."

    Huang Jinmian said: "You have obviously said it, why do you pretend you haven't said it? There is no woman around you every day, can't you survive this day?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "Well, it's my fault. This time I was forced to do nothing. I will never do it again. As long as you have plenty, please let me go."

    Huang Jinmian said: "I am a concubine myself. How dare I say let go? Just go away. I don't want to see you."

    Fang Jinshi said: "I promised to discuss something with Mrs. Liang, but she will definitely scold me tonight. I can't be scolded twice a day. I will stay with you to sleep tonight."

    He tried to coax her for a long time, but Huang Jinmian had no choice but to compromise.

    The next morning, Fang Jinshi went to the bank to inspect. Shi Hao brought Wang Gui over. Fang Jinshi greeted them and asked Wang Gui about the whereabouts of Li Jiupo from the Pai Gang.

    Wang Guidao: "I have already inquired about it. Li Jiupo's mother has been ill recently. He must visit her every day. We will go to his house and wait, and we will definitely be able to stop him."

    Fang Jinshi hurriedly said: "In this case, what are we waiting for?"

    He took Shi Hao with him andFang Gui went to Li Jiupo's house together. On the way, Fang Jinshi also went to buy a lot of gifts. Li Jiupo's platoon gang controlled a large amount of water transportation, so Fang Jinshi felt that it was absolutely necessary to have a good relationship with this person.

    This is Li Jiupo's home, which is located on the bank of Sishui River. It has a tall gatehouse built almost like a government office.

    Fang Jinshi and the three of them presented greeting cards according to the rules. The welcoming servants welcomed them into the hall, served them tea and then went in to report.

    Fang Jinshi and the other three waited for a long time before the servant came out and replied: "My master is not at home at the moment. Please go back, you three. I will inform you when the master comes back."

    Shi Hao asked: "I wonder when your master will come back?"

    The servant said: "Thisit's hard to say. Maybe he will come back soon, or maybe he won't come back today if he has something to do."

    Shi Hao said: "Since we are here, just wait a little longer and take a look."

    The servant bowed and went out, and served tea again. The three of them waited for a long time, but seeing no hope, they had to give up and leave.

    On the way back, Shi Hao said: "This Li Jiupo is probably at home. Otherwise, why did it take so long for the servant to go in for the first time?"

    Wang Guidao: "If he really avoids seeing him, we can't rush in to find him."

    Shi Hao said: "Then let's come back tomorrow and gather more people to guard the front and back doors of his house. Let's see if he can stay at home all day long."

    Fang Jinshi said: "He cooperates well with Mr. Meng Da, and he knows our intention. Even if we block him, there will be no results."

    Shi Hao said: "Then what should we do?"

    Fang Jinshi said: "You can't do things in a straight way. The cooperation between Li Jiupo's Pai Gang and Mr. Meng Da is ultimately about interests. Do you know what he is most afraid of?"

    Shi Hao said: "What are you afraid of?"

    Fang Jinshi pursed his lips and said for a long time: "Afraid of being punished by others. Some people, the nicer you are to him and the more you flatter him, the more he will look down on you. The more you hit him and make him afraid of you, the more loyal he will be to you.  You don¡¯t see the official servants in the yamen. The more they suppress some traders, the more these traders fawn over them. Some people the official servants don¡¯t want to pay attention to, the less they take the official servants seriously.¡±
