Chapter 253 Preparing to Go Out

"Then let's go to the farm first, and then go to the county town to book an official ship." Aunt Jiang quickly decided, "I just want to go to the county town to see Xia Zhi."

Jiang Hongyu didn't say anything more. He turned around and went to find Uncle Yan.

He knew that his mother had a good relationship with the wet nurse, and they didn't have many relatives here, so he felt most at ease letting his mother go to the farm to keep the wet nurse company.

After hearing what Jiang Hongyu said, Uncle Yan agreed without any hesitation and promised to bring them back safely.

With Uncle Yan's guarantee, Jiang Hongyu finally felt relieved.

His kung fu was taught by Uncle Yan. Ordinary villains would definitely not be able to beat Uncle Yan.

"Uncle Yan, Mingzhu and the others will take the official ship to the provincial capital. After arriving in the provincial capital, everything will be left to Uncle Yan." Jiang Hongyu bowed deeply to Uncle Yan.

Since he was a child, he has troubled Uncle Yan too many times.

Uncle Yan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Before Jiang Hongyu could say anything else, Lao Hu came in and reported that Ye Lang had arrived.

Jiang Hongyu said nothing more and took Ye Lang to see the things he had bought. They also went to the street to buy a lot of cooked food and rented a carriage to return to Yuanshan Village.

Before leaving, Jiang Hongyu told Ye Mingzhu to be careful when going out, and he would definitely come back from the island before the New Year.

Ye Mingzhu felt a little uncomfortable after sending Jiang Hongyu away, and Aunt Jiang gave Yunniang a look.

"Mingzhu, let's go buy some fabric. You're going to the capital, so you'll need to make some new clothes. Let's buy some ready-made clothes and have Yunniang make two for you."

Yunniang also smiled and said, "I promise to use my best skills to dress the young lady like a fairy."

Ye Mingzhu looked at Yunniang's exaggerated expression and laughed: "With my looks, I'm far from being a fairy."

"Who said that? You look very dignified and elegant. Not to mention the provincial capital, even in the capital, you can be ranked among the best." Aunt Jiang disagreed with Ye Mingzhu's statement.

Ye Mingzhu smiled and shook her head. She still had self-awareness. Even with the nourishment of the space, her appearance would not change.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Aunt Jiang didn't say anything else. After all, Ye Mingzhu was already her daughter-in-law, so her appearance was fine as long as the Jiang family liked her.

What Ye Mingzhu didn't know was that since the pearl was placed in her body, her health had been slowly improving. It wasn't noticeable in a day or two, but after several months, there were changes.

Her skin was obviously much whiter and smoother than before, and with the change in temperament and clothes, people would believe she was a lady from a wealthy family.

After this incident, Ye Mingzhu felt much better. She simply took her whole family to Jinxiufang to buy ready-made clothes and fabrics.

Even Lao Hu and Yunniang got one.

Yunniang refused to accept it at first, saying that they had already made two new sets of clothes when they first arrived and could not make new ones. However, Ye Mingzhu forced the fabric on her.

"I've already paid, so I can't return it. But let's make a deal first, you have to do it for me first."

"I will definitely do it for the young lady and the lady first, and I guarantee it will be done quickly and well." Yunniang put away the smile on her face and said as if swearing.

"No need to emphasize this." Ye Mingzhu smiled, "I know you work seriously."

This time at Jinxiufang, Ye Mingzhu and Ye Yun'an each bought two sets of clothes. Aunt Jiang bought one set and two sets for Uncle Yan. They also bought a lot of cloth and made a new set of clothes for each of them.

Aunt Jiang didn't want to buy it at first, but Ye Mingzhu said that everyone had one and she had to pick one too, so she picked one.

After returning home, Yunniang spent all her time making clothes for them except for cooking. Even if Ye Mingzhu said there was no rush, she would not listen.

In just five or six days, three sets of clothes were made. Ye Mingzhu's set was particularly exquisite, with a lot of embroidery on it. Judging from the style, it was also the first popular one in the town.

She also made a cloak for Ye Mingzhu using bright red fabric, which looked very festive.

"Young Madam, this is your first year of marriage. This bright red fabric complements your skin tone very well. It's cold in the mornings and evenings now, so you can wear it just right."

Aunt Jiang also agreed. Ye Mingzhu took it and tried it on. Everyone agreed that the dress was very good in both color and style.

Ye Mingzhu put the clothes away and rewarded Yunniang with a pearl ring.

Yunniang fell in love with it at first sight, and put it on immediately after getting it.

"This ring is perfect for Yunniang. It was given to her by Sister Lin last time."

Yunniang knew that Ye Mingzhu drew jewelry designs for Linglong Pavilion, and that Mr. Lin would often give her some small gifts.

"Thank you, boss." Yunniang said this sincerely. Although she was a child bride, she was spoiled since she was a child and had never suffered any grievances. The days in the pawnshop were the darkest time in her life. After arriving at the Jiang family, although she was sold as a slave, as long as she did her job well, the Jiang family did not care much about them.

During this period, she clearly felt that her health had improved, and she had hope in her heart that maybe she could also give birth to a child for the Hu family.

She was sincerely grateful to the Jiang family.

"We are leaving the day after tomorrow, and I will leave the house to you two." Ye Mingzhu did not give any further instructions. There were no valuables in the house anyway. All the valuables in the house were in her space, and it was safer to carry them with her than in any secret room.

Yunniang thought Ye Mingzhu believed them, so she promised to take good care of the family.

Ye Mingzhu went to deliver the news to Lin Dongjia again, telling her that she would be away for two months. Lin Dongjia asked someone to send some supplements and also brought a message.

It would be better to let Ye Mingzhu draw more pictures before leaving.

The wet nurse who came to deliver the message was a little helpless, but her young lady's personality changed three times a day since she became pregnant. She didn't want to control her too much, so she could only let Ye Mingzhu down.

Ye Mingzhu didn't care. After all, she would get a share of all the jewelry made from the drawings. But she was not stupid enough to take out all the drawings. She went back to the house, took out five drawings, put them in a box and gave it to the wet nurse.

"Nanny, please take these drawings to Sister Lin. I'll deal with the rest when I get back."

The nanny happily took the box back, and Ye Mingzhu went to pack the things she was going to take with her.

The more she packed, the more frustrated she became. There were simply too many things she needed to pack: clothes, shoes, socks, even the corresponding handkerchiefs and jewelry, as well as her usual toiletries.

Aunt Jiang asked her to bring the toilet with her, but she shook her head. They only planned to rent a carriage, so forget it.

In the end, everyone packed up a big box. Ye Mingzhu decided that if anything was missing, she could just go to the capital to buy it. Anyway, she still had a lot of silver, money and jewelry in her space, so she could just deal with it in the capital.
