"How were everything arranged in the end?" Ning Jiayin asked.
"The medicinal materials and arrows were directly transported away by the soldiers who came. Half of the food was transported, and the other half was placed in one place with others. It would be too obvious to say that they transported them all, just in case. Of course, they did These were all done quietly at night, and we don’t know what they said about the origins of these things when they went back.”
"It was also at night when we evacuated, and we were scattered. We bought carriages according to needs when we went to one place. When we came back, we sold them one after another according to the girl's instructions. There were only four left that were big enough for us people. ." Nie Weidong really admired the girl. Except for the bandits he met on the road, everything else was just as the girl thought. Moreover, the girl was thoughtful and told them not to reveal their whereabouts even if they were not discovered and retreated after they were done, and neither could the carriage carrying things. Sold out in one place, such a target is too big and easy to leave traces. When they said that these things were explained to the girl when she was at home, the rest of the people who had never seen the girl found it unbelievable. A little girl who had never been out. How do you know this? Obviously only experienced people in the world know this.
"Does the third uncle have anything to say to his brother?" Seeing that Nie Weidong had almost finished speaking, Ning Jiayin asked.
''The third master only asked us to tell the old lady that everything was fine with them, and asked the old lady not to worry about her. He also asked the old lady to take care of herself and not to think too much. Nothing else was said. "
Ning Jiayin, the old lady and Aunt Wen looked at each other in the air, saying nothing.
The old lady asked a few more questions in her mind, and Nie Weidong went back.
Ning Jiayin followed behind and wanted to leave. The old lady's face was stern and her voice was deep: "Sit down!"
Ning Jiayin turned around dejectedly and sat down slowly, shouting in a longer voice: "Grandmother"
Chun Xing and Aunt Liu both tried their best to hold back their laughter, seeing the girl being taken care of for the first time.
The old lady felt indescribably proud when she looked at her granddaughter who was as courageous as the sky. How many men had failed to do it, or her granddaughter had done things that men couldn't even imagine! The third son was right. If this granddaughter were a man, he would be a general and prime minister.
But now she was obviously very happy but she had to endure it with all her strength. She couldn't encourage her momentum. Her granddaughter was capable, but there were some dangers that she couldn't bear alone.
"Do you know you were wrong?"
Ning Jiayin looked at her aunt and saw that she turned away as if she didn't recognize her. She had no choice but to make another sincere review.
"A granddaughter shouldn't hide something from her grandmother."
"You should have informed me from the beginning, so that if there is any danger, I can take care of it for you."
Zheng Jiayin felt warm in her heart. Her grandmother only saw her as young, but she didn't know that there was a modern soul of nearly thirty years old living inside her.
She walked up to her grandmother, knelt down and held her knees with her hands: "Grandma, don't worry, I have thought about it in every possible way. If there is any danger, I have also told them how to escape. I will not put the Ning family at risk." Bringing them into danger, and their lives are also their own, and most of them have elderly and children to support."
The old lady sighed, it was hard for her to say anything with her granddaughter like this.
Then I remembered what I forgot to ask last night: "You need a lot of money to do these things. Where does this money come from?"
Grandma changed the subject. Ning Jiayin breathed a sigh of relief: "Has Grandma ever tried the loquat cough syrup I gave her?"
The old lady didn't know what the connection was between this cough syrup and her question, so she answered her question: "I've been taking some of it recently for Guifen's cough, and the effect is pretty good. I even praised you a few days ago."
Aunt Liu also answered the conversation next to her: "This syrup made by the girl is not only sweet in the mouth, but also very effective. My throat felt itchy, and the old lady asked me to drink it. It only took two days to get better. What if I have recovered from the onset of illness in the past?" It will take seven or eight days, and the soup will taste bitter."
Listening to what Aunt Liu was talking about, the smile in Ning Jiayin's eyes got bigger and bigger. When Aunt Liu finished speaking, Ning Jiayin said: "I sold this recipe to Baicaotang, and all the money was spent on it. On things.”
"It must be a lot?" The old lady wondered, after buying so many things.
After hearing this, Ning Jiayin slowly stretched out ten fingers: "Grandma and aunt, guess what?"
The old lady looked at her granddaughter's hands with all ten fingers stretched out and wondered what they meant. She didn't answer immediately. She thought about it and guessed a number that she couldn't believe: "One hundred thousand?"
When I saw my granddaughter, she immediately smiled like a flower and said in a dog-legged manner: "Grandma really knows things like a god!"
The old lady's eyes widened instantly, it was really a hundred thousand! I just guessed if it was bigger or bigger.
In the blink of an eye, I realized that if I had less money, the food I bought would not be worth sending to the front line.
She pointed at her granddaughter's forehead in vain: "I used to stay in my yard all day long, but now I can't find anyone bolder than you."
After he finished speaking, he straightened his face and said sincerely: "You are a little girl, and it is enough for you to have everyone blame you for food and clothing. No matter what the reason is, your father went to the front line, and their future is It is up to them to work hard on their own, there is no need for you to think about them, otherwise they will become men in vain. Your own safety is the most important thing when you go out."
Her little granddaughter hasn't even gotten hairpin yet.
Ning Jiayin listened to her grandmother's words and rested her head on her lap. Her grandmother thought that she was sending things to the front line for her father and the others, but she didn't know that she just wanted to send them. She had seen war scenes on TV in her previous life, and the school organized them After seeing the Nanjing Massacre, she didn't want to become a slave of a foreign race. That was not a life for human beings.
But she was so lucky to meet such a good grandmother. The ancients valued offspring, and many people would sacrifice their daughters to protect their sons if something went wrong in their families. But her grandmother said this to her. Just for such a grandmother, her efforts were worth it.
Early the next morning, Ning Jiayin planned to go to the new house to check on her and arrange work, but the Duke's Mansion sent a message saying that the old lady missed her and asked her to go there. After receiving the letter, she asked Chunxing to send a message to the housekeeper yesterday. The visitor has a day off today, and she has her own arrangements tomorrow.
Then he changed his clothes and took Chunni on the carriage to the Duke's Mansion.
When they got off the carriage at the Duke's residence, the boy at the door saw her and called her "girl" respectfully. The grandmother next to the old lady was waiting there again. When she saw Ning Jiayin getting off the carriage, her eyes flashed. I saw the fourth girl wearing a lavender gauze-covered long dress embroidered with light pink gardenia flowers. Her black hair was not decorated with pearls and only had a pink hairpin stuck in it. Her skin was smooth, petite and lovely. The childishness on his face has not faded, and his demeanor is calm, as if he saw the old lady in his youth.
