"It's Lord Wen? Second uncle, you don't know this, do you?" This time it was Mousse's turn to be surprised.
"Shu'er, are you talking about Wen Ye? Second Uncle is not convinced. How can he compare with Second Uncle?" Mousse thought it was Wen Ye so he felt that he must be inferior to himself.
"No, I'm talking about Prime Minister Wen and the master of the Wen family." After saying this, Murong Shu took another bite of the side dish. This kind of life is wonderful.
After Murong Shu finished speaking, everyone looked at Wen Jing, wanting to get the real answer from him. They thought that Murong Shu must have heard it wrongly from others.
"Why are you all looking at me? Henpeckedness is an inherited trait in the Wen family. It's nothing strange that my father and elder brother are henpecked." Wen Jing said it so naturally that it had an even greater impact. The others forgot to react for a moment, especially Liu Zhi.
He knew that his sister and brother-in-law had a good relationship, but what Miss Mu said about Mr. Wen being henpecked had to be confirmed by the Third Young Master. Liu Zhi now wondered if henpeckedness had been popular in the capital for a long time, but he was too busy to know.
"Being henpecked is not a bad thing. I think only two people who love each other will tolerate each other and care about each other. Rather than being henpecked, it would be more appropriate to say that he dotes on his wife. There is no real fear, it's just that he loves her too much. I think the King of Zhenshan is also a well-known figure in the capital."
"Shu'er, you are absolutely right. I also think my father dotes on my mother and concubine. But there is another person you may have forgotten. The emperor is the one who is truly henpecked. When I was a child, I saw the emperor making the imperial aunt angry, and then he hugged the imperial aunt's legs and cried and begged her not to be angry."
Jun Mingyue's words made Liu Zhi want to cover his ears. This was the emperor's secret. If the princess told everyone, would the emperor take revenge on her?
"Hahaha, so the emperor is such an emperor! Let's not fight over it, let's give the title of first place to the emperor." Mousse was very happy after hearing the gossip about the emperor.
"This gossip is a bit dangerous. If the emperor knew that we knew his gossip, would he find trouble with us?" At this moment, Liu Zhi really had no desire to live.
"Are you planning on telling on someone?" Mousse asked Liu Zhi with a smile, which confused Liu Zhi.
"Sir Mu, when did I ever say I would go over and inform on others? You can't falsely accuse me." Liu Zhi became anxious.
"If you don't go and tell the emperor, how would the emperor know? Look at this table, who will tell the emperor?" Mousse pointed at the people at the table and showed them to Liu Zhi. After seeing this, Liu Zhi was stunned. It seemed that if he didn't go and tell the emperor, no one would go back. What a sin! Why did he come to have breakfast? Why did he say so much?
"Everyone, don't worry. Liu will definitely not go." Liu Zhi was almost about to raise his hand and swear. His action made everyone laugh.
"Okay, let's have breakfast quickly. We have to go to the beach again today to see if we can find any new kinds of seafood." Seeing that everyone had almost finished playing, Murong Shu urged everyone to have breakfast quickly.
Finish breakfast.
A group of people went directly to the beach. Since they had been there yesterday, they didn't need a guide today. When they arrived, they were stunned to find that in just one morning, the location of the workshop had been determined and a lot of preparatory work had begun.
In addition to the workers brought by the Zheng family, many villagers came to help voluntarily. When they learned that the Zheng family would not only buy their seafood at a high price, but would also build a workshop at the entrance of the village and ask people from their village to process these seafood, everyone was excited and they all volunteered to come and help.
The head of the village heard that the Zheng family would build a road for their village so that the seafood they processed could be sold smoothly to the capital. So early in the morning almost the whole family came out to help, even the older children came.
After listening to what Zheng Yuanhe and the head of the village said, Murong Shu was deeply moved. These people are simple and kind. As long as you are nice to them, they will repay you with their utmost sincerity.
"Uncle Zheng, head of the village, we can slowly build the road. Don't let the villagers work for nothing. All villagers who have time to help will be credited. I'll trouble the head of the village to supervise and credit the workers. We'll pay them every day. No matter if you're helping with the road construction or the workshop, both men and women will be credited."
"Your Excellency, please do not do that. It is a great favor that you are willing to accept our seafood. We are willing to help build workshops and repair roads. We country people are used to doing hard work and have plenty of strength."
When the head of the village heard that Murong Shu wanted to pay them wages, he immediately panicked. They were already very grateful for accepting their seafood, so why should he ask for wages again?
"Village head, please accept it for everyone. Life is not easy for everyone. Let's build the workshop and repair the road as soon as possible. We can hire women to work in the workshop. They are more meticulous." Murong Shu was afraid that the people here were feudal and would only hire men to work.
"Don't worry, my lord. Master Zheng has already made all the arrangements. The men will mainly go out to sea to fish, and the women will be responsible for the work in the workshop. If there is heavy work, we will arrange for the men to help. It's our own women who will do the work. Just let us know when the time comes."
The village head was afraid that Murong Shu would not be satisfied with their arrangement, and that his village would not be given such a good opportunity. If the opportunity he had waited so hard for was lost, he would become the sinner of the whole village.
"Thank you for your hard work, village head. Tell everyone not to be busy repairing the road in the next two days. Instead, catch more seafood. We will go back to Beijing in the next two days and bring some back." Murong Shu did not plan to stay here for long. He wanted to stock up on some seafood before leaving.
"Don't worry, sir. Our people have already gone out to sea and will be back soon. Please wait for a moment and we can go and see if there is anything we can use and take them away." The village chief was very grateful that he arranged for them to continue fishing today, otherwise you would be disappointed.
"That's great. You and Uncle Zheng are busy there, so let's take a look around." Murong Shu wanted to continue to visit the beach, so the group left first.
"Master Zheng, is this noble gentleman really from the capital?" The highest official the village head had ever seen was the county magistrate. Now, looking at this group of people who were either rich or noble, but had such a good attitude and were not at all arrogant, he found it hard to believe that they were from the capital.
"If the county magistrate knew they were coming, they would have to pay themselves a visit. We must serve him well and discipline the villagers. We must not cause trouble for him. But we don't have to be afraid of trouble, because we have him backing us up." Zheng Yuan explained to the head of the village again. He himself attached great importance to this matter, so he would not allow any mistakes to occur.
The fishermen came back at noon, and Murong Shu and his group were happily looking at today's seafood and discussing what to eat for lunch.
A man came running over from a distance and shouted anxiously, "Agui, go home and see your wife. She is dying from a difficult labor."
