Going to ancient times with a sign-in system: Stepmothers are not to be trifled with

Chapter 13 It's All Foxes
"Master, will those people last night..."

Wu Tangchi responded with a worried face: "I don't know, but I heard that there are refugees in several villages. What's going on, I will know when the second child comes back."

After Wu Tangchi finished speaking, Guo Xiaoxiao expressed his intention, "Uncle, Auntie, I am a woman who doesn't know how to farm land, and I want to rent out the two acres of land at home. Pull the strings."

"You want to rent out the land?"

Looking at Guo Xiaoxiao and nodding yes, Wu Tang thoughtfully said: It's fine to rent it out, how does this lady from the official family know how to farm the land.

Qin Yulan looked at Guo Xiaoxiao with bright eyes, "Daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, do you really want to rent out those two acres of land?"

"Auntie, to tell you the truth, I don't know how to farm. I want the children in my family to study, so I want to rent out the land. If there is someone I know who wants to rent, as long as the rent is suitable, I should gone."

Hearing this, Qin Yulan turned to look at her husband, "Master, can we rent this place?"

Wu Tangchi glared at his impatient lady, pretended to cough, then looked at Guo Xiaoxiao and asked, "Daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, what is your rent?"

"Thirty percent, three percent of the harvest will go, one sign a year."

"Thirty percent, not high. Cheng, uncle has made a note of this matter, and I will tell you after greetings."

"Hey, thank you uncle, thank you aunt. I'll go home first."

"Hey, wait a little longer, come and chat at home when you have time."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie."

"Head of the family, let's rent the two acres of Xiao's land. Although our family has a few acres of land, there are quite a lot of people. After a year of chewing and using it, we can't save much."

After Guo Xiaoxiao walked out of the yard, Qin Yulan started talking to Wu Tangchi.

"The third child is not too young. If you like this look, you have to prepare a dowry and afford a few rooms..."

Listening to Qin Yulan's rambling, Wu Tangchi also made up his mind.

After a while, he nodded and replied, "Sure, let's rent it. Talk to the three brothers at night, the rent is % which is the lowest nowadays, and we have to be human. Let's see what they mean."

Saying that, she turned to look at her daughter-in-law, "Take care of the two of you at home, don't blah blah blah, you're going to be bald all the time."

"Leader, I'll save it. That's the deal, you have to hurry up, and the two acres of land can still be planted this year."

"I know I know..."

After returning home, Guo Xiaoxiao went to the backyard with a hoe, ready to turn over the soil in the backyard again, and then plant some beans, radishes and loofahs.

Xiao Ziqing followed closely behind with Xiaosi, and asked crisply: "Stepmother, Ziqing is here to help."

"Yeah, sister helps mother, mother is not tired."

Hearing the little girl's milky voice, Guo Xiaoxiao smiled, "No need, mother can do it by herself. Ziqing, the sun is a little bit hot, just take Xiao Si to play in a cool place."

"stepmother,"

"Go, stepmother will be fine soon."

Xiao Ziqing stared at Guo Xiaoxiao for a while, nodded her head and said "yes", then took the little girl to sit down in a cool place, watching Guo Xiaoxiao turn the ground.

"My lord, Mr. Qi from Qin County next door is here."

"Qin County? Master Qi? Please hurry up." Although he didn't know why the master from the next county came here, Guo Haifeng went out to greet him quickly.

"Master Qi is good,"

"Qi Mou has met Mr. Guo."

"Please sit down and watch tea."

After the servant put the tea on the table and left, Guo Haifeng asked, "I don't know why Master Qi came to Lin County."

"Master Guo, Qi's visit this time is not for official business. The thing is like this..."

"The clerk came back to talk about this matter, and our district lord sent Qi to come to the lord to say something. The bandit has been caught, and Miss Guo is fine."

At this time, Guo Haifeng remembered what he had forgotten recently, raised his hand and patted his head, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Master Qi, for telling me about this. It's good that my daughter is fine. My son-in-law is not in the village?"

"No, I heard from people in the village that they left home the day after they got married. There are four children in the family, the oldest is twelve, and the youngest is four years old."

Hearing this, Guo Haifeng couldn't believe it.

This marriage was pointed out by the magistrate, how could it be like this?
Moreover, the magistrate's wife and Xiaoxiao's mother are still acquaintances, how could...

In the blink of an eye, several doubts flashed in Guo Haifeng's mind. Although he didn't know what was going on, he had to do the superficial things and not make people chew his tongue.

When Qi Mou left, Guo Haifeng had someone prepare some food for chewing, and sent them to Wuming Village in Qin County to hand over to Guo Xiaoxiao.

After entering the boundary of Qin County, Qi Mou pointed the direction to the young servant of the Guo family, and then headed towards the county government...

Qin County.

County government.

"Master Qi, how are you?"

"My lord, I'm sure it's Lord Guo's daughter. It's Miss Guo Er, who went from a concubine to a concubine."

"That makes sense. It's just that Guo Haifeng probably lost the watermelon and picked up sesame seeds."

Seeing Ou Fu's inscrutable appearance, Qi Mou's eyes flickered, and he said with some doubts: "I heard that this marriage was appointed by the magistrate, so it must not be bad."

"I just don't understand why this is the case. I can see clearly that even the county magistrate Guo doesn't know the situation of the Xiao family."

"Master, we don't care if Guo Haifeng knows it or not, but for Miss Guo Er, you just need to remember one sentence."

"Sir, please speak."

"Miss Guo Er is not a simple person, it's best to get along well."

"My lord, why did you say that?"

"Miss Guo's mother, when she was still in the boudoir, was comparable to the magistrate's wife and sister. When Guo Haifeng married a newcomer, he could calmly invite him to go down. Do you think he is a simple person?"

He said with a cold snort, "Master Zhifu's pointing out the marriage is probably because he wants to protect Miss Guo, or there is some arrangement."

Qi Mou thought about it carefully for a while, then nodded his head and replied: "Well, there is a great possibility. Then the Xiao family can skip us and directly settle in Wuming Village. If there is no one behind this matter, I don't believe it."

"It's good to know." After finishing speaking, he thought in his heart, what is the plan of the magistrate, this old fox, how could he bring people to his border of Qin County for no reason...

He had someone check this matter, and the information on the five members of the Xiao family was complete, so complete that he thought it was fake for a moment, because it was too complete.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the Guo family member appeared in Wuming Village...

I have to say that the magistrate of Qin county is really smart enough to guess this.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, in a courtyard in Qingyang Mansion, a middle-aged man was sighing, "Oh, if I hadn't thought carefully at the time, I wouldn't have let Qianmeizi's daughter marry like that."

"Since Xiao Yifeng left, the whole family rested on the shoulders of my niece. Ma'am, I didn't make any arrangements for this matter. I will ask someone to look at it some other day..."
