Our Mommy is the Best Investigator! Chapter 500

Chapter 500 donation

Chu Nanzhi led Zhao Taigong to go in, while looking at the large and small boxes in the hands of the group of servants behind him from time to time.

Zhao Guangyuan noticed the strangeness in her eyes, knew that she was unwilling to take over the Zhao family business, and said with a light smile: "The shopkeeper is really very cautious, you know what you are thinking, this time I will thank you and King Ning for the old man." I have brought down Wu Enrong and found out Yan'er's background, I am very grateful."

After a pause, he changed the topic: "However, this old man treats the shopkeeper as his own, and he will not be polite to you anymore. I don't plan to pay the remaining ten thousand taels of silver note to the big shopkeeper. For such a small gift, the treasurer doesn't need to worry about it.”

After speaking here, he suddenly fell silent.

Chu Nanzhi felt that the old man was suddenly very strange. Although he said before that he would take another 10,000 taels of silver after finding out Zhao Yan's background, it was just talking.

Mr. Zhao treated her well, so she naturally wouldn't argue with him about the money.

Instead, Qin Xiaoniang told the past in public, and Chu Nanzhi felt a little guilty.

"That day when Mrs. Qin was asked to identify Wu Enrong in public, I didn't expect that she would arrest Wu Enrong on the spot"

Unexpectedly, before Chu Nanzhi finished speaking, Zhao Guangyuan immediately interrupted her with a wave of his hand: "I can't blame the shopkeeper for this matter. I just thought that Wu Enrong deliberately concealed something, but he never thought that he would do something just to conceal Wu's matter." Such a horrific thing is really frenzied."

Hearing him keep calling her the big shopkeeper, Chu Nanzhi always felt a little uncomfortable, and said carefully, "I have hired Sang Kun as the big shopkeeper of this restaurant. Help out with ideas, just an idler."

"This gentleman is indeed someone who can entrust important matters."

Zhao Guangyuan smiled warmly at her: "I don't want to see Mrs. Chu anymore. This big shopkeeper's call is not easy to say, but I don't respect Mrs. Chu as a princess. If Mrs. Chu doesn't mind, I would be willing to call you a princess." Call Nanzhi girl."

"In the heart of the slave family, the slave family also regards the grandpa as an elder, and the grandpa does not need to see outsiders."

Chu Nanzhi readily agreed.

Although the old man was indeed annoying when he first saw him.

But after thinking about it, his temperament has always been like this, even the dignitaries in the palace respect him, but it doesn't matter if he has a bit of domineering aura, it's better than the Qi family's utterly devoid of conscience. many.

And what he has done these days is really touching.

In her heart, she has gradually regarded this old man as a serious elder.

Mr. Zhao loves her more and more. Now that he is the wife of the governor and heir to Princess Pingning, he is still so approachable. He has never met such a woman who makes people want to feel pity from the bottom of his heart.

Nodding contentedly, the two continued to walk into the garden.

In the gazebo, Chang Lao and Nie Lao had already taken the quadruplets to teach homework in the private room cleaned up in the courtyard, only Lin Jinxiao, his old father-in-law Chu Wenbi, Liu Shuyang, Weng and his son-in-law were left in the pavilion with Xiao Muci Sip tea and talk.

Seeing Chu Nanzhi leading Taigong Zhao in, Chu Wenbi and Liu Shuyang got up first, and saluted him: "Old lady, Ankang."

Lin Jinxiao didn't have much affection for Zhao Guangyuan at first, but these days he took the lead in responding to the government's rent reduction policy, and now he is giving the land rent-free to the common people. Although it is for the sake of his wife, he is still helping himself. No small trouble.

also stood up politely and bowed his hands to the old man, and gestured to the old man, "Old man, please take a seat."

Zhao Guangyuan got straight to the point, and asked the boys to bring up all the boxes in their hands, put them in the center of the pavilion, and explained solemnly in a low tone:

"This time I have troubled His Royal Highness King Pingning and Princess Wang to uphold justice for the old man. His Royal Highness will soon seal it up. Pingning Prefecture has suffered from drought again this year, so the old man has specially prepared a small gift."

As he spoke, he signaled everyone to open the boxes one by one: "This is one million taels of silver, and I would like to donate it to the state capital for free, so that His Royal Highness can use it to build the state capital."

Looking at the white banknotes in the box, everyone was dumbfounded.

Chu Nanzhi said in astonishment: "How does this happen?"

Zhao Guangyuan waved his hands resolutely without blinking his eyes: "Your Highness and the princess have just taken over Pingning Prefecture, and they encountered drought and the relocation of the state capital, not to mention the fact that there are foreign enemies eyeing them. Yes, the only thing I can do is to add some money and do my best."

After finishing speaking, he added solemnly: "Your Highness, please don't refuse."

Lin Jinxiao was very moved. He had heard that he wanted to entrust the Zhao family's family business to his wife, but his wife was a person who didn't want to take advantage of others.

He donated such a large sum of money today to solve the urgent need of the state capital again.

It's also not that you don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

In the past, I only thought that Luyan Port was rich, but after being appointed governor of Pingning Prefecture, I discovered that the salaries of many county officials had been in arrears for nearly a year.

It is no wonder that the imperial court issued a policy order to support business.

This is the case in Pingning Prefecture, let alone other counties.

All are disasters caused by party struggle.

"Grandfather Gao Yi, this king has thanked the grandfather on behalf of the people of Pingning Prefecture."

Lin Jinxiao did not evade any excuses, and asked someone to come over and pack up the box, and let Mr. Zhao take a seat. Chu Nanzhi personally brewed a cup of tea for him.

Zhao Guangyuan said in detail while drinking tea: "The current situation in the imperial court is difficult, and it is not easy to spend money to build the king's mansion and the state capital. Yangang is the important place where the north and the south meet, the end of the Jinglu Canal, foreign envoys must stop here when they enter the court, this is the facade of our Dahe Empire, and it is also the granary of the empire, so it cannot be sloppy."

"What Taigong said is very true."

Lin Jinxiao didn't know the reason behind it, which is one of the reasons why the imperial court moved the state capital of Pingning Prefecture to this place.

Thinking about Zhao Yan, I wanted to comfort him a few words, but it can be seen that there is no abnormality on his face. The best way to comfort this kind of thing is to never mention it.

Anyway, now that his wish has been fulfilled, as for those face-saving matters, at his age, he must not be too **** it.

After everyone drank a few sips of tea, Lin Jinxiao deliberately changed the topic: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival, Mr. Chang and Mr. Nie are here, and when the restaurant of the grandpa and his wife opens, why don't you just stay in the garden and enjoy the scenery? Shall we have dinner together tonight?"

Chu Nanzhi was grateful to the old man, and hadn't formally invited him to a meal for so long.

Since Lin Jinxiao had opened her mouth, she also echoed the situation: "It's rare for everyone to gather together. Tonight, my family will prepare some small dishes by myself, and my grandfather will stay to taste the cooking skills of my family."

"I've heard that the princess is a good cooker, so I'm welcome to have such a blessing today."

In the past, Zhao Guangyuan had never taken Lin Jinxiao seriously, but after all, he was a student of Chang Lao and Nie Lao, and also Chu Nanzhi's husband. Now he is only in his twenties, and he is the governor of a state and named king. It is indeed not a simple person.

Since taking office, all the things he has done are worthy of the title of virtuous minister. At this time, he respects this young gentleman from the bottom of his heart.
