Tea Merchants of the Song Dynasty

Jiang Sanniang lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment, then said decisively: "They went to find Madam Feng."

Looking for Mrs. Feng?

The people in the old house didn't know that Aunt Feng had forgiven her, but they still went to find Aunt Feng. That meant that they trusted Aunt Feng more.

Jiang Yin felt somewhat relieved but also a little upset. After all, she had been protected too well in the past, so she was not the first person they thought of when these things happened.

"Okay, I got it." She sighed, then turned and walked out the door, "I'll go to the old house to make arrangements, and you guys can come find me one by one later."

When she reached the door, she paused, turned around and glanced at the people at the five tables, and said, "Everyone must come, not one less."

Since she had said that someone would be arranged to pick her up, she should go back and make the arrangements. She just hoped that she could make it in time.

In the past, matters at the old house were handled by her parents, so she asked everyone to come and talk to her.

In addition to understanding them better, I also want to get some useful information from them.

Jiang Yin was the new head of the Jiang family, and most likely the new clan leader. Therefore, no one refuted her.

Only Jiang Xiaoya followed her with Xiaoli in her arms, insisting on escorting her back to the old house.

She simply followed his wishes and did not refuse.

On the way, Jiang Xiaoya tilted her head and said, "Sister Yin, are you angry?"

Jiang Yin raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Aren't you angry about eating vegetarian food every day?"

The half-grown kid is eating me up, and the little sprout is still in the growth stage. Eating only vegetarian food will definitely not make you full.

The children can’t even get enough to eat, let alone the others who have to work.

This matter will not only make everyone feel resentful, but if it gets out, it will probably become a laughing stock.

"I'm not angry." Jiang Xiaoya smiled with narrowed eyes, "My parents will cook meat for me when I go back."

He thought for a moment and continued, "Sister Yin, don't be angry. It's not just my family. Others will cook meat when they go back home. I can smell it. It's the same at my great grandfather's and third grandfather's homes."

He treats eating vegetarian food as a daily activity, which he can eat or not.

But thinking that eating vegetarian food was for the purpose of mourning, he quickly added: "Sister Yin, I don't have any other intentions, I just think that mourning can be changed in a different way. Let's manage the tea mountain well and live up to the expectations of the head of the family."

Jiang Yin raised her hand and patted his head and said, "You are right, Sister Yin, I think so too."

Those who are alive must move on, not to mention that there are so many clansmen behind the Jiang family to support, and so many people outside are coveting her, how can she remain depressed?

She asked why no one resisted since they had to go through this every day, and it turned out that they were all doing it in private.

So, who came up with this form of vegetarianism?

"Third uncle said so." Jiang Xiaoya said without hesitation, "Third grandfather also agreed."

Jiang Yin's heart sank slightly, but he remained calm and said with a smile: "You are a clever little ghost."

The former head of the Jiang family was her mother, so, in her eyes, Jiang Sanniang was a relative on her mother's side, called Sanniang, and Wansheng was called uncle.

But to Jiang Xiaoya, he still addressed them as aunt and uncle in the usual way.

They all call each other by their own name and do not interfere with each other. This is quite common in the Jiang family, which is different from other families outside.

However, Jiang Yin couldn't understand why Third Grandpa, as the second-in-command of the tea mountain, would agree to such a thing.

But we have to wait and see. Jiang Xiaoya is just a child and doesn’t know much.

After returning to the old house, Jiang Yin asked Aunt Fu to prepare a meal and asked her to take Jiang Xiaoya to eat first, while he arranged for someone to go to the provincial capital to pick them up.

Of course, she did not send any secret guards, but only ordinary guards.

After all, my great grandfather and third grandfather in my previous life made it to Tokyo alive, which meant that they were not in danger of death along the way.

But no matter what little thoughts they have now, they were not successful in their previous lives, and they did not get out of this vortex.

Even the families of the eldest aunt, the second aunt, the third aunt, and the fourth aunt are the same.

Therefore, Jiang Yin’s main concern and suspicion now is not about these families, but about other more distant collateral relatives and small workers.

But she couldn't be completely relieved. After all, this life had changed a lot because of her rebirth. Maybe other people or things would also change.

Before the truth of the tea mountain incident in the previous life came to light, the two tea mountains of the Jiang family were completely divided up. Therefore, who was the murderer behind the scenes remained to be verified.

She had just looked at the tea mountain, and for the rest of the day, she would wait at home for people to come over and chat.

There wouldn't be much danger if she didn't go out, so, taking advantage of the right time, Jiang Yin asked Wang Heng to do what she said.

Not long after Wang Heng left, the aunt brought her uncle to the old house first.

Jiang Yin poured two cups of freshly brewed Mengding Huangya tea for them, and then said slowly: "Why is cousin Rou not here? Is she not at home?"

Cousin Rou is the daughter of the aunt and her husband, named Jiang Rou, who is three years younger than her.

She didn't see Jiang Rou in the house just now.

Aunt Jiang picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said softly, "The child went to Yazhou. He said he would stay in the city for a few more days and would come back when the tea picking season came."

"Oh?" Jiang Yin fiddled with the lid of the teapot and said casually, "Cousin Rou is in Yazhou City. Did Auntie and Uncle know that the teahouse in the city has been closed for several days?"

Yazhou City is so close to the old house, she didn’t believe that they really didn’t know.

Furthermore, my uncle Fang Xianshan's family lived in the city, the teahouse was closed, and Manager Cao was missing. It was impossible for them not to know about such a big thing.

She raised her eyes to glance at the old lady's somewhat weak face, and then stopped her gaze on Fang Xianshan.

Among the four uncles, the eldest uncle Fang Xianshan is the oldest and also the most stable.

He pondered for a moment and said, "We do know about this matter. Your great grandfather and third grandfather went to the capital for this reason. Don't blame us for not informing you in time. How would you, a young lady who just came of age, deal with it?"

Besides, the Zhang family is still living in the Yazhou mansion. News never comes back, and I don’t know if it will reach you.”

"You went but never came back?" Jiang Yin narrowed his eyes and asked, "Uncle, do you mean that you sent the message to the Jiang Mansion in Yazhou?"

She knew that Zhang's father and son often stayed at the house in Yazhou, but as far as she knew, Zhang Yang had only been there in the past three days.

If what my uncle said is true, then the news was delivered within the past three days.

The timing also doesn't match the time when Manager Cao disappeared.

However, the old lady asked in confusion: "Ayin, maybe you remembered it wrongly? When I sent Arou to the city a few days ago, I saw Young Master Zhang in the city."

She looked embarrassed and continued, "Arou left ten days ago."
