Mrs. Xu insisted that the child in Gu Tao's belly was the grandson of her dreams, and she would not allow Gu Tao to do menial work anymore. She cooked lunch herself, which was not satisfactory compared with the food cooked by Gu Tao.
The messenger had a meal at Xu's house and left with the reply.
Gu Litian and Gu Daliang also came to visit their daughter. Fan Shiqing took the opportunity to say to them: "Xu Ling said in his letter that it would take at least two months for him to come back from his trip to Yazhou. He was afraid that it would delay the spring plowing and cost us more money." Thoughts, help urge."
The weather has been good recently, and brothers Chen Sheng and Chen Ze have not been idle. They visited the land several times and selected a place to build a house. Gu Litian was still responsible for finding people to build the house, and the task of reclaiming the wasteland fell to the Chen family. On the head of the second brother.
In addition, if Fan Shiqing can make the decision about anything at home, he will ask him to discuss it with Gu Litian.
Although Mrs. Xu and Gu Tao were reluctant to tell Xu Ling the happy event for fear of delaying his official business, Fan Shiqing still wrote the matter in the letter.
"Xu Ling knows what he does. If we don't tell him, he will blame us. Thinking of his family, he can act more safely."
Gu Litian also agreed with Fan Shiqing's point of view.
Several people discussed and arranged everything they could think of at home. At least they didn't have to worry about Xu Ling when he went out. This was the only thing they could do for Xu Ling.
After Xu Ling received the invitation from the scalded man, he went to the Xiang Family Martial Arts School again, but unfortunately the person who sent the letter had not returned yet.
Back at the medicine hall, Taoxian, a woman rescued from a heartless businessman, was able to go to the ground. She asked to see Xu Ling and begged him to take her out of Lingbao Town.
"The slave family heard from Dr. Chai that you are going to take them to Yazhou. The slave family has nowhere to go. They are willing to stay with you and be a steward."
Taoxian said that when she was in the land of fireworks, she was taught how to read and write. When Lin Lisheng doted on her, he also taught her how to settle accounts. She could also cook and sew, so she was not considered useless.
"The slave family just wants to stay away from the sad place, and would rather end this life in a place where no one knows the slave family."
After Xu Ling understood her strengths, he felt that she was really underestimating herself. These skills were already amazing, so why bother worrying about love? Isn't it good to have a career?
"Then I will take you to Yazhou as you wish, but you have to think about it carefully. Yazhou is a barren land and life is not as easy as here," Xu Ling looked at Tao Xian who looked a little scared and said with relief. : "But don't worry, I can guarantee your personal safety. They are all my men. I will not let you idle just because you are a woman. Their men are clearing wasteland and farming, and you have a lot of work to do."
Although Taoxian was not liked by Lin Lisheng for resale, Xu Ling saw that the clothes she wore were not bad and her hands were white and tender. She probably had not done much hard work and she would not cry after arriving in Yazhou, so she still wanted to say something ugly. Go to the front.
However, Xu Ling really underestimated the self-pity of the betrayed woman. She would rather go to Yazhou and suffer a hundred kinds of hardships than stay in this sad place.
Xu Ling thought she had listened to his words and planned to slap the scumbag on his own, but he didn't expect that she was still addicted to the pain of broken love.
How should I put it? It is much more difficult to change a person's thinking than to change a person's habits.
It doesn't matter what the purpose is, as long as the result is the same, it doesn't matter.
Xu Ling added: "Your name is Taoxian, and you have been the concubine of the Lin family for seven or eight years. He called you by your nickname when you were still a land of fireworks. I don't like this name. What was your previous name? Give yourself a different name. .”
Taoxian was a little surprised. She used to think that she had become a good person, and she asked Lin Lisheng to change her name, but Lin Lisheng coaxed her: "Just call me Taoxian, how nice it sounds!"
She obeyed his words and still used her former flower name.
Taoxian thought that she had become a concubine of the Lin family and would have a family from now on. But it wasn't until she was sold that she realized that she had the same name as Taoxian, and she had always carried the brand of the Land of Flowers and Willows on her body, making people look down upon her.
Unexpectedly, it was the man in front of her who was kind enough to rescue her, and asked her to change her name.
Seeing her dumbfounded and confused, Xu Ling didn't want to waste time and asked, "What's your maiden name?"
Taoxian shook her head. She was only three years old when she was sold, and she had long forgotten what her mother looked like.
"Then follow my surname of Xu and call her Xu Chunmei."
Taoxian nodded, "Thank you, Master, for the name. From now on, my family will be called Chunmei."
Xu Ling shook his head helplessly, "Just call me boss, just call me me. There aren't that many rules."
He also knew that his name was not pleasant, and he was afraid that Taoxian would not be able to adapt to the difference, so he said thoughtfully: "If you don't like this name, just change it yourself if you think of a better one another day."
Taoxian said quickly: "Slave... I like it, that's what I'll call it!"
It just sounds good, as if she has become a different person.
The scalded man kept urging Xu Ling to leave Lingbao Town for Quanzhou, but Xu Ling kept delaying.
Xu Ling was waiting for an opportunity.
Wei Wuxia's first attack on the Jiang bandits failed, and he had been reorganizing and waiting for the next opportunity. This time, he summoned two ships to attack the Scalded Man.
Xu Ling was waiting for the opportunity on the eve of the war.
That evening, a carriage slowly drove up in front of the Wei Mansion. The doorman saw the carriage stop and a man step out of it.
Nie Peng put down the footstool for Xu Ling to get out of the car. Behind him was Chunmei, who had changed her clothes. Chunmei was holding a wooden box in her hand. He said: "My master's surname is Xu. I would like to see Master Wei. Please let me know."
"What do you want from my master?"
Xu Ling looked over and Chunmei handed the wooden box to the doorman.
"Just show your master this wooden box and he will understand."
The doorman doubtfully held the wooden box and went in. In less than half a cup of tea, a familiar person hurried out of the house and shouted: "Where is that person? Call him in quickly!"
Xu Ling recognized Wei Shiqing at a glance. Wasn't this the same person who bought his pears when he was selling them at the foot of Lingbao Temple last year?
Unexpectedly, he was the head of the Wei family!
No wonder people are stupid and have a lot of money!
Xu Ling recognized Wei Shiqing, but Wei Shiqing did not recognize him. He respectfully invited Xu Ling to come to the mansion and hurriedly asked him where the spices in the wooden box came from.
That's right, Xu Ling asked to see Wei Shiqing and gave him a whole box of spices.
The spices in the box are divided into four small boxes, namely agarwood, sandalwood, ambergris and musk.
Either way, they were extremely expensive and rare spices, but Wei Shiqing was not so interested in Xu Ling because of the value of the spices.
But the three wooden boxes of spices he lost were exactly these four top-quality spices!
Wei Shiqing spent all his family property to buy these spices at a high price, originally intending to send them to his family in Hangzhou to seek an official career for him. Everything was done secretly, but who would have expected that Jiang bandits would take it away at the doorstep!
All this should have been unknown to outsiders.
Wei Shiqing hesitated: "Who are you? How do you know?"
