Upon hearing this, Cui Hongyu knew that there must be a reason. But since the princess didn't say anything, it was inconvenient for me to ask.
"Your Highness, I will arrange for someone to send you some charcoal later. Burning charcoal will keep you warm when the weather gets cold."
Hearing the Lotus Leader nodded, "Yes, you have to burn some charcoal in the house in winter. Princess, don't miss Hong Yu's money."
Princess Zhaoning nodded, "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely give you enough."
"Okay, let's go. I'll have a few words with Hong Yu." The leader of the Lotus Sect waved his hand and drove Princess Zhaoning away.
When the princess walked away, the Lotus Master reached out from his sleeve and took out a silver note, five hundred taels of silver.
"Help Zi Yan and I burn some more paper money for Huang Ying during the holidays."
Cui Hongyu shook his head, "I will do this regardless of the leader's instructions."
However, the leader of Lotus took Cui Hongyu's hand seriously and gave her the banknote, "This is the heart of Zi Yan and I, and you can't replace it!"
Well, now that the Lotus Leader has said this, Cui Hongyu can only nod, "Then I'll accept it."
After accepting it, the Lotus Master nodded again and said, "As for the burial of Junior Sister Huang Ying, if my master has other arrangements in the future, I hope you and Chen Xiaobei will not stop it."
Cui Hongyu hesitated for a moment, "Let's discuss this later. After all, Huang Ying is now considered a member of my Hetou Village."
Cui Hongyu's answer was obviously expected by the Lotus Leader. She nodded, "Okay, then I'm leaving. I'll be looking after you more in the future."
After seeing off the Lotus Cult Master, Cui Hongyu went to Huang Ying's grave to tidy up, then turned and walked home.
When I walked under the big locust tree, I saw my ancestor waiting there tremblingly, "Hongyu, there is something I didn't want to say."
Cui Hongyu quickly bowed and said, "Ancestor, what do you have to say? Just say it."
"It's not a new year or a holiday. I'm going to burn paper for Huang Ying in a big way. I'm afraid it will make her unstable underground."
After hearing this, Cui Hongyu felt helpless for a while. After all, the Lotus Master was Huang Ying's senior sister, so he couldn't help but let people pay homage to him when he came.
"Ancestor, here is Huang Ying's senior sister. I think Huang Ying's spirit in heaven also wants to meet her senior sister."
The ancestor waved his hand, "Okay, that's all I have to say, you can think of the rest."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Cui Hongyu shook his head slightly and turned back to his home.
It got dark in the blink of an eye, and Chen Xiaobei came back with Guo Chuan and the others in the evening.
The return of Chen Xiaobei and others made Hetou Village a little more angry.
Cui Hongyu quickly cooked two dishes to welcome Chen Xiaobei's arrival.
What surprised Cui Hongyu was that Chen Xiaobei came with Guo Chuan and ordered her to add two more dishes.
Cui Hongyu quickly went to fish out a fish from the fish tank, stewed it and ate it.
Chen Xiaobei also took out a jar of wine.
First, he poured a hundred glasses of wine for Guo Chuan and poured a bowl for himself, and then said in a deep voice, "Since Brother Guo is back, let's open up the skylight and speak frankly."
"It's really tight for a thousand people to live on four acres of land, but now you can only live here. There is no better choice. I will make other arrangements for you when Miss Liu comes back."
Guo Chuan nodded, "I understand this. Let's follow the arrangements for what to do after Miss Liu comes back."
At this time, Cui Hongyu, who was standing next to him, interrupted and said, "Husband, Brother Guo, I have something to say. I don't know whether to say it or not."
Chen Xiaobei looked at Cui Hongyu and said nothing. This was his wife, so he couldn't speak too directly. Fortunately, Guo Chuan still knew how to deal with the world, so he immediately clasped his fists and said, "Sister Hongyu, just say whatever you have to say. "
Cui Hongyu nodded, "Her Royal Highness the Princess and Master Lotus are here today. The Princess is now in Centipede Ridge and has settled temporarily."
"Brother Guo, if you think the place is too small, you can go..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Xiaobei quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, how can Brother Guo go to Centipede Ridge?"
"Besides, the princess is worth a thousand pieces of gold. We ordinary people are gone..." Chen Xiaobei was halfway talking. Of course Cui Hongyu understood and immediately kept silent.
Unexpectedly, Guo Chuan smiled indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter. If it's really inconvenient to live there in Four Acres, it's not a big deal to go to Centipede Ridge. As far as I know, bandits were once stationed in Centipede Ridge and there were hundreds or even thousands of people living there." There’s no problem.”
After hearing what Guo Chuan said, Chen Xiaobei suddenly raised his eyebrows and his eyes lit up, "Brother Guo, you are right, this may not be a good idea?"
Guo Chuan looked at Chen Xiaobei in surprise, not understanding what he meant for a while.
Xiaobei then whispered, "Brother Guo, your status is very embarrassing now."
"Even if you return to Wannian City, I'm afraid it won't be easy for the emperor to make arrangements. It's better for you to go to Her Highness the Princess and follow her name, which will save you some trouble in the future."
After hearing Chen Xiaobei's words, Guo Chuan's eyes also lit up.
"Brother Xiaobei, you are right. It is not a problem for me to hide here with my brothers. It would be a good idea if the princess can give us a status."
After hearing his statement, Chen Xiaobei was also very happy. He looked at Cui Hongyu and said with some approval, "Hongyu, thank you. If you hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't know what to do next!"
Cui Hongyu shook her head indifferently, "Husband, this is nothing. Her Royal Highness the Princess came here today, and I promised the Princess to send her some charcoal. You see..."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Charcoal has to be delivered, and the house has to be warmed when it gets cold." After saying that, he put down the pot and put it on, "I think it's better for the two of us to go there together tomorrow and make this clear to the princess. "
After hearing what he said, Guo Chuan also showed great excitement, "Come on, brother Xiaobei, I'll toast you!"
Chen Xiaobei picked up the wine glass, clinked it gently with Guo Chuan, and drank it down in one gulp.
After drinking two more glasses of wine, Guo Chuan stood up and left.
When Guo Chuan walked away, Cui Hongyu turned to Chen Xiaobei and said, "Brother Xiaobei, you won't blame me for talking too much, right?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "How can I blame you? I have to thank you. You are right."
"Thousands of people are squeezed into four acres of land. It is both wronging them and making it difficult for them. If they can go to Centipede Ridge, it will kill two birds with one stone."
After hearing what Chen Xiaobei said, Cui Hongyu seemed very excited, "That's good, that's good, Brother Xiaobei, let's take a rest early."
The next day, just after polishing, Chen Xiaobei got up and quietly walked to the yard.
After feeding all the pheasants, snakes, and dogs, Chen Xiaobei came to the street.
It was already very cold on the street at this time. Although it was early winter, everyone was busy, especially the villagers who were burning charcoal. They were so busy every day that they couldn't even touch the ground.
