Returning to the small courtyard again, Xu Wanning ordered A Yuan, who had been following behind: "Go and help Dr. Jia repack his luggage."
"Hey, little one, let's go right away." A Yuan took Xu Jia's baggage, hugged it and ran towards the house.
Xu Jia saw A Yuan running in with his own eyes, and then asked: "A Ning, what are you going to do next?"
In the empty courtyard, with two loyal maids guarding her, Xu Wanning was not worried that her words would be heard by others.
"Bai Qingqing was injured. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the house. Cui Yunfeng will definitely find a way to take me away."
"How dare he!" Xu Jia almost said these words through gritted teeth, "Did he forget what he promised his adopted father and adopted mother back then?"
Xu Wanning smiled: "Not to mention him, I happened to be going out to do something, and he just gave me the opportunity to leave the house."
Xu Jia knew what she was going to do, "Be careful."
"Don't worry, I will take Chen Wang with me."
"He has the skills, don't worry, brother."
"As for Cui Qingping's prescription, big brother, just prescribe it as hard as you can, and don't save money for the Cui family." All the silver she spent on the Chengyang Marquis Mansion would always make the Marquis Mansion spit out all of it.
"I know, brother is waiting for your information."
On the way back to Ningyuan from the small courtyard, Xu Wanning was stopped by someone from Yannianyuan, saying that Madam was inviting her.
Xu Wanning had expected this. She was just curious about where Du Shi would send her.
"Ah Ning, time flies so fast. The village is about to start planting cotton again. Normally, the village is usually managed by the Marquis, but the Marquis went to Kyoto for business and won't be back for a while. I want Feng'er to go again, but he has grown up in the house since he was a child. He has never seen farming before, and he doesn't understand it. I heard that the Xu family made their fortune by growing cotton. You must have seen it. Have you passed?"
"I've seen it." Xu Wanning nodded: "I grew up in Zhuangzi when I was a child. My family not only planted cotton, but also soybeans and rice. I also planted it myself."
Those memories will never be seen again in this life.
Du covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, hiding the sarcasm and joking at the corner of her mouth, "Yes, you have experience. It's best for you to do this."
If it is really something that cannot be put on the table, is farming something worth showing off?
It is also worth mentioning that fortunately there are no outsiders here. If others heard it, they would have to say that the young lady of Chengyang Marquis Mansion is a country bumpkin.
"Okay, then I'll leave tomorrow." Xu Wanning said.
Du Shi waved her hand: "It will be too late tomorrow. Go back and pack your things. Let's go now. You can stay in Zhuangzi for a few more days. You can come back after all the cotton is planted."
Xu Wanning: "Brother Keping?"
"I'm here, so you can go with peace of mind."
"Brother Ping has his mother to take care of him, so my daughter-in-law will definitely feel relieved. But..." Xu Wanning suddenly frowned.
Du was afraid that she would refuse to leave if something happened: "But what? If you have any difficulties, just tell me and mother will help you solve it."
"When my daughter-in-law goes to Zhuangzi, the servants in the courtyard will definitely follow her. Can I take Chen Wang with me? He knows how to box and kick, so I feel more at ease with his protection."
Bring an escort, of course. She picked Chen Wang because he was her dowry guard before.
Du Shi didn't have the slightest doubt, "Okay, take it with you."
"Thank you, mother. I'll go back and pack my things and leave immediately."
Du Shi smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her teeth.
Let's go, let's go, my son will go crazy over there.
Back at Ningyuan, Xu Wanning ordered the two maids.
"Pack your things, we'll set off in two-quarters of an hour."
The two girls happily packed all the things they wanted to bring.
If the madam said she would stay a few more days, then they must be eager to stay a few more days!
There are not as many rules as the Hou Mansion outside.
Chang'an looked enviously at Hong Mei Qing Xing who was happily packing her things.
"Why don't you pack your things?" Xu Wanning asked, which shocked Chang An.
Not scared, but excited.
"M-Mrs., can I go too?"
Xu Wanning smiled and said, "I will take the whole courtyard with me, and you are one of them, so why can't you go?"
Chang'an jumped up happily, "I'm going to pack my things right now." He was happy, but he didn't dare to forget the etiquette: "Chang'an, thank you, Madam."
"Silly boy." Xu Wanning laughed angrily and touched Chang'an's head.
My heart also felt a little happier.
Jixiang can't leave because Aunt Qiu hasn't come back at home yet.
When a few people came out, Ji Xiang pouted. He was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with baby fat still on his pink face, a baby face, and his eyes were as clear as water, and the next step would be to let the golden beans fall out.
She looked at the bundle in Hongmeiqingxing's hand, and although she didn't say anything, she said everything.
This child...
Xu Wanning sighed silently.
Jixiang will not be staying in Ningyuan for a long time.
She will get married soon, and the person she marries...
Still an acquaintance.
She is still a child, but she is used by her family as a tool to make money. When Ji Xiang got married, she gave him a little extra, but then she gradually forgot about this person.
When Xu Wanning heard the name Jixiang again in her previous life, Jixiang was already dead.
He died in an extremely degrading manner, and there was no one to collect the body.
Her parents' family had long since cut off contact with her, and everyone they met told her that she was a playboy and deserved to die.
Her husband's family also divorced her a long time ago, and she married another woman, and they didn't even want to mention the word auspiciousness.
Xu Wanning thought about the old master-servant relationship and asked Hongmei to collect the body for her.
Hongmei cried a few times when she came back, and her eyes were red for several days.
This child, what did she do wrong? She is just a leaf in the earthly world, and she can float wherever the wind wants her to.
Floating into the small stream, the scenery along the way is beautiful.
If it floats into the smelly ditch, it will only rot and stink.
Xu Wanning planned to give her a hand.
"Jixiang, when we go to Zhuangzi in the next few days, Ningyuan will be left to your custody. Can you keep it safe?"
Not just the yard, but the things in the yard.
This is because the young lady trusts herself.
Ji Xiang nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, young lady, I will guard Ningyuan carefully. Even a leaf will not float outside the wall."
He never mentioned that he wanted to go with him.
Xu Wanning patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, look good. I'll give you a lot of rewards when I come back."
Ji Xiang watched the few people walk away, then wiped his face and forced back the tears that had not yet fallen. His baby face became serious, and his whole person seemed to have changed into a different state.
He did not relax because Xu Wanning left, but became more serious.
The carriage was already waiting at the door, and it was Lao Shuan who was driving it.
Several people got on the carriage and finally left.
Breathing in the air outside, Xu Wanning's whole body relaxed.
Also relaxed was Cui Yunfeng.
Cui Yunfeng almost stayed at Maple Leaf Tower to listen to the concierge's movements.
The carriage was ready and waiting at the door.
Xu Wanning is out.
The carriage has left.
Cui Yunfeng's nervousness was relieved with a huff, and he rushed to Qingfengyuan non-stop as if he had hot wheels on his feet.
Bai Qingqing woke up after being delivered to Qingfengyuan.
She originally thought that Cui Yunfeng would be by her side to guard her, but when she opened her eyes, she was still in her small and cramped servant's room, which only had a kang, a table and a stool.
Let alone Cui Yunfeng, there wasn't even a fly.
No one is with her.
Bai Qingqing cried aggrievedly.
There was no one around to persuade me, and the more I thought about it, the angrier and sadder I became. I didn’t know how long I cried. The pillow was soaked, and I heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
Bai Qingqing looked towards the door excitedly, her eyes full of hope.
She didn't know him, but she was wearing the clothes of a young man. She didn't even knock on the door. She walked straight to the bed and said unhappily, "Why are you still sleeping in? The young master can't find you and is losing his temper. Hurry up." Go and coax him."
Bai Qingqing cried even more sadly.
She still wants to be coaxed!
When the boy saw Bai Qingqing crying and was about to curse, his eyes fell on Bai Qingqing's bright red buttocks. He immediately looked straight and forgot the curse.
