Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

There are several lines in it, and Li Haitang has a clear idea. First, Master Ma transferred the family wealth, and found that something was wrong with Master He, so he decided to plan, promised to give food and grass, and took the opportunity to borrow another two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Afterwards, the grain depot at Daying in the north of the city was burned down, and Mr. He took away the grain and grass, which disappeared.

Later, Master He hooked up and introduced Li Tianshi to Master Ma, asking for food and money.

"Uncle, do you mean that the He family colluded with the barbarians?"

Before and after the snow disaster, it was already very difficult to transport a large amount of grain out of the city. Furthermore, even before the snow disaster, there were records of caravans or convoys entering and leaving Lucheng in the snow and ice.

When wars broke out in the border towns, food and grass usually could only come in and out. If Master He had shipped the food out, someone would have sent the news.

However, the large amount of food and grass disappeared without a trace. Li Haitang only thought of the barbarians.

"The He family is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf who has been coveting the Ma family's wealth. I once mentioned it to Bihe's mother, but she didn't believe it. She always thought that she was deeply in love with the little Zhou sisters."

Master Ma sighed, he couldn't afford to offend, but he could hide. The border town has been fighting for years, business is getting worse and worse, and the shop is worthless at all. He has long wanted to move out with his family.

I plan to go to the south, find a place with good water and soil to recuperate, and when the time comes, I will trick my family to go there, and once I leave, I will not come back.

Unexpectedly, the most worrying thing happened. Although the family suffered a little loss, it was not a big loss. The rest of the property was mortgaged to the He family in exchange for an IOU of 200,000 taels.

As for whether the He family colluded with the barbarians, it's hard to say, but Master He is timid, and although the Little Zhou family is more vicious, they have no courage to collude with the enemy and treason.

"But, he has a son-in-law who is a small boss in Daying in the north of the city. If that person is a nail, it's hard to say."

Li Haitang reminded that He Yuexiu's man served in the camp in the north of the city, and his subordinates managed at least tens of thousands of people.

After Master Ma said this, he was exhausted, frowned, and couldn't say a word.

Xiao Lingchuan didn't press every step of the way, he didn't trust anyone except his own wife, the truth of these words still needs to be verified.

Li Haitang stepped forward to feel his pulse, and found that Master Ma's pulse condition was disordered, and his body was very weak. Even if he took good care of him, he would not survive this year.

There is blood congestion in his brain, and there are many, these blood congestion can hardly be absorbed, unless there is a second craniotomy, but there is no condition for a second operation here.

As soon as Li Haitang went out, she saw Zhou Shi and Ma Bihe with anxious faces. Zhou Shi had no ideas all his life, and he regarded his husband as his god. Seeing his master sober, he was ecstatic, and his hand holding the handkerchief was trembling all the time.

"Master Ma woke up, very good, you gather all the servants of the mansion together to announce the good news to the Ministry."

Seeing Ma Bihe's hesitation, Li Haitang said, "This is a good opportunity."

"Haitang, what if the He family finds out and makes trouble again, and your uncle is so emotional that he passes out again, what should we do?"

Mrs. Zhou wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ma Bihe, "Mother, think about it, is there anything strange about the connection of these incidents? I always feel that the He family is the first when it comes to our family. someone knows."

In other words, there are people from the He family at home.

The two houses are relatives, and the He family even buried their eyeliner in their own house, which is too deceiving!

"In the evening, that person must sneak out to deliver a letter to the He family. Let's catch him first."

In this way, if the He family can't get any news, they can still find out this villain hiding inside!

After a few people have discussed it properly, they will arrest people at night.

At night, Majia Village was silent.

Surrounded by mountains, the air at night is humid. In order to save lamp oil, the Ma family only hung a lantern at the gate.

In the darkness, someone sneakily opened the corner door, rolled up a bundle, and left in a hurry.

Ma Bihe was about to go forward to arrest someone, but was stopped by Li Haitang, who made a silent gesture.

There is only one way to leave the village. Xiao Lingchuan is already waiting on the dirt road out of the village.

"How could it be her?"

Ma Bihe was devastated and couldn't believe it, that was her nanny, who cared for her since she was a child, how could it be possible?

"There is nothing impossible, calm down first, and ask later."

The two of them planned to follow after the nanny walked away, and before they could move the place, another sneaky girl came at the corner door, that girl also looked around, didn't hold anything in her hand, and saw that there was no one around, so she hurried ran out.

"Who is this?"

There were hundreds of servants in the Ma family before, and Li Haitang seemed to have never seen the girl who went out in her teens.

"Hongxing and her grandma stayed behind to clean the ancestral house. Later, her grandma disappeared, and she was left alone."

Ma Bihe wondered, could Hong Xing also be a spy of the He family? The number of people seems a bit much.

This time she was patient, stayed where she was, and tightened the cloak around her body. Sure enough, after a quarter of an hour, another woman came out.

There were not many people who followed the mansion, most of them were homeless, the emaciated camels were bigger than the horses, and the Ma family still had the ancestral house and fields, so they would not go hungry.

Moreover, the Ma family has always been generous to their servants, and they pay a lot of wages, so they seldom beat and scold their servants.

Except for Xiao Lingchuan who was waiting at the entrance of the village, there were other subordinates. Ma Bihe and Li Haitang didn't go out until dawn.

Unless the spy is particularly calm, there should be no doubt about the three of them.

After not sleeping all night, Li Haitang was in a trance. She yawned, ate a bowl of tofu flower and a pancake, and hurriedly went to listen to the interrogation.

All three of them were locked in the woodshed in the backyard, their mouths were gagged, their bodies were tied tightly with ropes, and they sat in the corner.

Zhou Shi and Ma Bihe appeared, and the three of them immediately struggled hard, swallowing the cloth in their mouths, wanting to shout.

Xiao Lingchuan put the teacup on the table and made a crisp sound. Hearing the sound, the three of them immediately became honest. When they met someone in the middle of the night, they thought it was Black and White Wuchang who came to pick him up. They were so scared that they almost peed their pants, and now they couldn't react. Come.

Master Ma was not sober, because of his reputation, there were not many men left in the family, except for the lame old man who guarded the door, the rest were maids and wives.

Li Haitang glanced at his husband, Xiao Lingchuan was expressionless, even though he was sitting silently, it made the room extraordinarily cool.

Some people, whose aura is too big to be ignored, are unconsciously short in front of him.

"Red apricot comes first."

Ma Bihe glanced around below, and was most curious about Hongxing. After all, Hongxing had always been in the old house and rarely went to the border town.

"Miss, I kowtow to you!" The rag was removed from Hong Xing's mouth, she wanted to kneel and kowtow, but the rope was tied too tightly, she couldn't move for a while, so she could only kneel on the spot in embarrassment.
