"It may not be a spy. It is also possible that one of our own has become a traitor." said Nanny Feng.
Shen Heng nodded. In every era, Xing Qi's 500,000 was always much more special.
Sometimes she doesn’t understand, if she doesn’t even love her own country, what else can she love?
At this time, the officers and soldiers knocked on the door next door.
"Official, official!"
"After dark, you must close the door. No matter what noise you make, you must not open the door. Understand?"
"I understand, sir."
Shen Heng felt the voice was familiar, but she didn't have time to think about it. She quickly got down the ladder and put it aside: "Sister-in-law, open the door. The soldiers are coming in to check."
Xia hurriedly opened the door.
Quickly, the officers and soldiers rushed in.
Before they could speak, Shen Hengjing said, "Sir, please search as much as you can, but search carefully."
"Madam Shen?" The leading officer suddenly shouted at her excitedly, "Are you Madam Shen?"
Chen Heng took a closer look and said, "Ouyang En?" Wasn't he the young Ouyang who had aspired to become the Great General of the Nation? He had even said, "If I don't succeed, I'll let my son and grandson take over." The impression was too deep.
Oh my God, this kid has grown taller and stronger, like a bull.
"You are in the imperial capital? Where is Xie Jian?" Ouyang En was very excited. It had been a year since they last met in Yuzhou, and he didn't expect to see them suddenly.
"He hasn't come back yet, go ahead and do your business." Shen Heng didn't want to disturb him.
"It's okay. We came in just to take a look, worried that the people would be held hostage by the thieves. You guys look so relaxed, it's totally out of character." Ouyang En laughed heartily: "Tell Xie Jian that I'll come and have a drink with him when I'm free."
"Tuo."
As soon as Ouyang En and his group arrived, Xia closed the door tightly and then asked about Ouyang En.
Chen Heng recounted how they met and their scientific expedition together.
"This is a young boy. He has been an orphan since childhood and grew up eating food from many families. So he is determined to become a general to protect the country in order to repay his parents." Nanny Feng admired such a young man very much.
"Yeah." Chen Heng also liked this passionate young man. She never expected that he would come to the imperial capital and become a soldier.
As usual, Xie Jian was assigned to the house on time.
Chen Heng was using an abacus under a lit oil lamp, and the sound of her abacus was particularly loud in the room.
Xie Jian stood at the door and quietly watched Ah Heng doing the accounting. She used an abacus in her left hand and wrote in the account book with her right hand. After the calculation, she put some of the change into a small wooden box beside her.
She was still mumbling something about financial freedom. He had heard her mumbling these four words several times in her sleep. He didn't understand at first, but now he understood. If she could say it in relation to money, she probably meant making more money.
"Ajian, you're back?" Shen Heng looked up casually and saw the young man looking at her calmly, his lips slightly raised, and he seemed to be in a good mood: "Why didn't you call me?"
"If you're distracted, won't we have to start over?" Xie Jian walked to the beam, changed into casual clothes and hung them up, then sat down beside her and took the account book to look at it: "Thirty taels are already due now?"
