Space-time SWAT

Chapter 21 Induction

Soon, things will be done.

Su Dongchen wrote an IOU of 15 taels of silver, and Mrs. Hui Ningbo and Hu Sheng signed it and stamped it with their seals.With this IOU, Su Dongchen is holding the lifeblood of Huining Bo's Mansion. Not paying back the money is another matter, at least they dare not abuse Su Huilan at will.

The dowry that was originally placed in Mrs. Huiningbo's private treasury was all moved to Su Huilan's yard, the treasury was re-locked, and the key was handed over to Su Huilan.Li Quan led people to search the whole mansion, and took back antiques, ornaments, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings that belonged to Su Huilan's dowry from many rooms, and sent them to Su Huilan's private treasury.

Xiao's mother stayed to help for a month, teaching Su Huilan how to preside over the donation and manage the property and dowry of the uncle's house.According to Su Dongchen's order, the maids and women specially arranged by Wei's mother also came to kowtow to Su Huilan to recognize the Lord, and they will serve by her side from now on.Li Quan picked a few companions from Anguo Gong's mansion, and brought them along this time, and Mother Xiao will arrange errands for them when the time comes.

All the dowries arranged by the Hu family before were dragged out, pressed to the ground, and each person was hit with [-] boards, and then they were imprisoned in the Zhuangzi under the name of Su Dongchen, and they have been confined to work since then.

So many people were beaten at the same time, and the screams and pleadings were so loud that half the Earl's Mansion could hear them.Mrs. Huiningbo couldn't bear it, and finally passed out.Hu Sheng was also half-conscious from fright, but was woken up by Su Dongchen's men splashing cold water on him.Su Dongchen asked the people who served the mother and son to find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, without the slightest feeling that he was overstepping the mark.

After all the people who should be taken away were pulled out, and the people left behind were in place, Su Dongchen walked slowly to Su Huilan's yard.After looking inside and out, he confirmed that everything that needed to be prepared was done, so he smiled and asked Su Huilan to open the private treasury and go in to check her dowry.

There are not many good things left, but they are still worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. Then I want to bring back the three rich big villages that I married as dowry and the five shops in the downtown area of ​​the city. , the annual income is at least 3 to [-] taels of silver, which is enough for them to have enough food and clothing.

"Now that you have become the head of the family, you have to take care of the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the whole family. You don't have to be stingy with what you should give, and you can be generous with holiday rewards, so that you can win people's hearts. However, if you want to go out and drink, or in the The family is extravagant, but you must not tolerate it." Su Dongchen told Su Huilan, "You are meek, if you marry a good family, you can naturally do nothing, but now you are in this muddy pond, you can only work hard to drain the sewage. clean, plant flowers and trees, and make it a good place to live in. In short, you must remember that since no one in this mansion can be trusted, you must firmly guard your dowry, and manage it well to provide for your children. Leave a family property. I have sent someone to investigate Hu Sheng. Although he is messy, he is still healthy. You take care of him and take care of him. He will have a few children. The husband is unreliable. It is also good for children to help you."

Su Huilan was so moved that her eyes filled with tears, she nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I always listen to my elder brother."

While talking, they walked into the warehouse.Su Dongchen looked around, and suddenly felt something in his heart, as if he had sensed something, so he walked forward slowly, judging where the thing he wanted was.

Every space-time special policeman has extraordinary perception, which is mysterious and unpredictable, and neither scientists nor metaphysicians can explain it.When the special police perform their missions and go to different time and space to correct the historical process, they must find the key nodes related to the mission.Generally speaking, when the special police arrive in a world, they can vaguely perceive the general location of this node in about ten days. Once they find it, they can find a breakthrough, otherwise they don't know how long it will take to get a clue.

Su Dongchen was delayed for more than half a month on the way back to Beijing, and only felt that the mission node had nothing to do with the military, but had something to do with the palace and house fights.After returning to Beijing, he entered the Anguo Mansion, and his feeling became clearer, the node was related to the Anguo Mansion.After seeing Su Huilan and Hu Sheng, the feeling became clearer, and the node was related to these two people.After a little speculation, he thought that node must be an item in the dowry.Therefore, he was in a hurry to go to Huiningbo Mansion to support Su Huilan, and by the way, use this as an excuse to seize the power from the Hu family and completely control the Anguo Mansion.

Mrs. Hu is scheming and able to go all out. For example, she took the risk of ruining her reputation to seduce An Guogong, and finally succeeded in becoming the Duke's wife.But she grew up in the run-down Huiningbo Mansion, after all, the structure is too small, and all she sees are the petty profits, not enough success, more than failure, so he must detain her in the mansion, and can no longer let her be a This home is gone.

An Guogong's mansion cannot be destroyed in her hands.

While thinking about his thoughts, he followed the induction and finally saw a sandalwood box.He took it over by hand, opened it to look at it, and was sure it was this thing, so he handed it to Li Quan who was following behind, "Hold it first, I'll settle it later."

In order to avoid suspicion and confuse others, he took some gems and jades rich in aura, bronzes with mysterious power, and woods full of vitality that are most needed in the portable space.Most of these things are treasures, while some look rather ordinary.Even if someone checks him and knows what he took, they still can't guess his intentions.

There are more than a hundred items to be taken away. According to the market value, Su Dongchen sent Su Huilan ten sets of exquisite head jewelry, dozens of top-quality silk and satin, and a box of large round pearls, all brought from the south. , is exactly what she urgently needs right now. In addition, there is a set of three-entry houses in the capital. It was like sending charcoal in a timely manner, solving her urgent needs.

They wrote part of the dowry replacement documents according to the rules, signed them with seals, and sent them to the government for filing. Everything was done seamlessly.

Half of the companions Su Dongchen arranged to come to Huiningbo Mansion were retired veterans and their families. They were loyal, able to endure hardships, and willing to work. Although they had been retired for many years, their skills were much better than ordinary servants. Sit on the bench in Anguo Gong's mansion, and let those families that Hu doesn't like have children.Anguo Gong's mansion has been passed down for 300 years. There are more and more servants in the mansion, fathers and sons, sons and grandchildren, and more and more can be distributed, and the burden can be reduced. Those servants also have a way to go.

The two housekeepers brought out by Mother Xiao and the two stewards of the outer courtyard chosen by Li Quan are both smart and capable, and the stewards of the inner and outer courtyards arranged by Mrs. Hui Ningbo are also relatively easy to bribe, basically there is no future trouble.Two of the four big maids who followed Su Huilan were military maids, and three or five strong men couldn't get close to them. The other two knew medicine, could settle accounts, were good at cooking, and could help her a lot.

These people all knew that with the respect that the son of the Duke's Mansion attached to the third aunt, once the third aunt gave birth to a son, he would be the son and would definitely inherit the earl's mansion in the future.Don't look at this uncle's mansion is now impoverished and the younger generations are not up to date, as long as there is the support of the future An Guogong, prosperity and prosperity are just around the corner.At that time, those of them who are devoted to the third aunt in difficult times will have a bright future.

Su Dongchen saw that the people who brought him settled down to their duties and gradually became organized, so he said to the fearful Hu Sheng: "Whether you want to be a mud that can't support the wall or a real man, you choose yourself. I will talk to you today." Put it here, when my sister gives birth to a son, you can become Ning Bo's son."

"Really?" Hu Sheng immediately cheered up, and said repeatedly, "Don't worry, brother, I will change my past and live a good life with Huilan. She takes good care of her body, and we will have a son."

It is not so smooth for a noble family to inherit the title. First of all, it must be born, and then it must take part in the assessment. If you pass, you can get the position of the eldest son. After that, you will have to take another test when you inherit the title. Only after passing the test can you get the title passed down by your ancestors. However, it can only be downgraded and even seized.Hui Ningbo had tried several times to make Hu Sheng his son, but he was too far behind in the assessment, and had already been reprimanded by the emperor several times.Uncle Huining didn't dare to go any further, for fear that the emperor would take away their titles in a fit of anger.

Now with Su Dongchen's guarantee, Hu Sheng's worries were all gone, and he felt refreshed.Based on his many years of experience as a dandy, Su Dongchen has a very thick golden thigh that must be hugged without hesitation.From then on, he devoted himself to ingratiating himself to his wife, and even his doting mother retreated. Although stealing was still unavoidable, he never dared to be as reckless as before.

As for those concubines, concubines, and restless maids who were taken away from Huining Bo's mansion, they would be allocated to the old and weak soldiers and widowers who had retired from Su Dongchen's army.Due to their poor conditions, these soldiers are not easy to find women from good families as wives. Although these women who came out of the Ningbo Mansion are already remnants and slaves, after all, they are young and beautiful, and they are just right for them.They go to be concubines first, and if they behave well and are sincerely willing to live with their husbands, they can get rid of slavery and become wives.

He had done this many times in the south before, and most of them were very happy.In ancient times, women's status was low and their ability to earn a living was relatively weak. Therefore, once many women lived with a man, even if they were a little dissatisfied, they would probably endure it. If they gave birth to a son and a half, they would be completely at ease.Besides, most of the veterans who can be discharged from the battlefield alive cherish the stable life and are very considerate to their wives.Over time, the couple became one mind.

Of course, it's not that there are no escaped wives, but Su Dongchen will notify the government that he is wanted. When he is caught, he will be beaten up first, and then he will be given a letter of divorce and sent to the farm to do rough work.Although not as ruthless as other big families who would sell escaped slaves to brothels, mining areas or the army as prostitutes, being confined to work in remote farms to death is not a good place to go.

Su Dongchen was never afraid that these women would be restless in the room and wronged his soldiers. If he couldn't even cure a few weak women, he would be called the Su Family Army in vain.

Everything was in order, and after seeing that everything was in order, Su Dongchen explained to Su Huilan again, telling her that if she had any difficulties, even if she sent someone back to her natal home to deliver the letter, there must be someone to support her.

Su Huilan was so excited that she wiped her tears all the time, and insisted on sending Su Dongchen out of the house, watching him get into the carriage and leave in a mighty way.

Hu Sheng graciously helped her back home, and kept saying "Ma'am", and his attitude towards her changed dramatically.

In one day, her life was turned upside down, as if she came from hell to heaven.She is very grateful to this big brother, and if she is needed for anything in the future, she will go through fire and water and die.
