Chapter 1270 Going to Hangzhou
Two days passed in a blink of an eye. Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan spent a night together and said goodbye reluctantly.
Qiao Xuan actually enjoys the current relationship between her and Shao Yunduan. They are together and apart, more together than apart. They each have their own things to do, and while they love each other, they also support each other. Only such a relationship will become stronger over time and go further.
Well, after saying so much, she actually just wanted to comfort herself and let go of her feelings so that the days after separation would not be so sad!
There are still many things to be done in Yangzhou, such as relocating Zheng's grave, taking care of the 100,000 mulberry gardens, and developing tea plantations on the 50,000 mu of mountain land.
Qiao Xuan simply asked Zhao Shu not to go to Hangzhou, and let him and Uncle Qing stay in Yangzhou, and also helped to settle her two farms.
Aren't Aunt Qing and the others in Hangzhou? It would be the same if Qiao Xuan went there with Aunt Qing.
Zhao Shu thought about it and decided not to go with them, so he apologized repeatedly.
In his heart, he knew it clearly. The most important reason was to avoid suspicion! Mr. Shao was still in Yangzhou on business. It was not appropriate for him to accompany Mrs. Shao.
Although Madam Shao and Lord Shao were deeply in love and there was absolutely no way they could have anything to do with him, but in matters like this one, gossip is scary. There could always be people with ill intentions talking nonsense and spreading rumors. When other people heard about this kind of thing, they would just say there is no smoke without fire and there is no smoke without fire. There is no way to explain it at all.
It's just as well that he doesn't go.
Shao Yunduan didn't just stay in Yangzhou, he also had to travel to several cities in Jiangnan. As soon as Qiao Xuan left, his personal affairs were settled, and he focused on his work and no longer cared about other people's affairs.
Zhao Shu was originally still hesitant, discussing with Uncle Qing how to manage the two farms and the mulberry garden, the progress, etc. and whether he should report to Lord Shao.
How could you not understand this? Lord Shao doesn't care about these things.
They should remember this and report it to Mrs. Shao when they see her again.
So Zhao Shu went back to his work with a relaxed mood.
By the way, take a look at the Zhao family's excitement, eat some melons, and complain. Life is really enjoyable.
Besides, Zhao Mu lost such a huge amount of wealth in an instant, and it was more or less impossible for him to let it go all of a sudden.
Zhao Ye and Zhao Zhai were both very tactful and did not dare to get close to him for fear of making him angry.
Zhao Mu was only thinking about meeting Qiao Xuan and signing the silk purchase transaction contract first.
Zhao Mu felt that he and Madam Shao had become more or less close friends after taking away such a large fortune from him. Madam Shao herself had said that she would pay according to the market price, so she didn't expect her to change her mind.
But he would feel uneasy if the contract was not signed earlier.
Once the weaving workshop starts, the silk cannot be interrupted, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
It is too late this year, but he will buy land and plant mulberry trees. Although he will still need to buy silk next year, the year after, and beyond, at least he will not be as passive as this year.
Zhao Mu went to look for someone, only to find out that Mrs. Shao had something to do and had already left Yangzhou City. As for when she would come back? He didn't know, maybe she wouldn't come back.
All matters here are left to the manager.
Zhao Mu was speechless.
The important matter that he regarded as more important than the sky seemed to be insignificant in the eyes of Mrs. Shao. She didn't even look at it, and just left the 100,000 acres of mulberry fields to the manager without any hesitation.
