Chapter 1501 Send Someone Back
Ding Xiang laughed, thought for a moment and said, "I suddenly don't want to go back again, but we should send a few people back, at least to let those people know that we are still alive!"
"good!"
Meng Wanfu thought without hesitation.
Ding Xiang laughed, "It's settled then!"
Dingxiang quickly gave instructions to Zhou Chong, Qingyun and Qinglan, and took twelve personal guards with her. Carrying a handful of banknotes and a long list she had made, as well as some fine wolf skins, fox skins, several beautiful jade carvings, and a box of gems, they headed straight for Yuzhang in a light carriage.
After discussing it, the couple changed their minds. Ding Xiang only sent someone back to see her parents and show off her power to the Ding family in Shaoding Village, but she would not go to the Meng family.
The Mengjiawan clan was of the same clan, with a large population and complicated circumstances. The people who tried to harm Meng Wanfu were only from their branch, not the entire clan. It was impossible for Meng Wanfu to break with the entire clan.
To cut oneself off from one's clan is to be rootless and will also make people wary and prejudiced against you. It is definitely not the best choice.
However, to teach a lesson to the two families who committed the crime, outsiders do not know the details of the past and it is difficult to confront them. They also do not understand the internal situation of the Meng family, so it is better to let Meng Wanfu deal with it himself in the future.
It feels better to slap someone in the face!
Therefore, the people sent back by Dingxiang would not only not go to Mengjia Bay, but would not even mention a word about Meng Wanfu.
Zhou Chong, Qingyun and their entourage traveled light and hurried along the way. Half a month later, they arrived at the provincial capital of Yuzhang.
At this time, it was already the end of September.
Yuzhang was still very warm at the end of September, unlike Hu Ning City, where the wind was already cold and there was frost in the morning and evening, which could make people shiver.
This season is the best season in Yuzhang, and the joy of harvest is everywhere.
The group found an inn in the provincial capital and booked a courtyard to stay there for two days.
These two days I happened to be shopping according to the long list my wife gave me.
Since Ding Xiang sent them back to give someone a slap in the face, the slap must be loud and clear, with a big ceremony and grand presentation.
The various gifts are too far to bring from Hu Ning City, so it would be more appropriate to buy them in the provincial capital.
Everyone acted separately and bought fifty or sixty rolls of various fine silks and satins, thirty-six pieces of porcelain, jade and other ornaments, two sets of large 16-page embroidered screens with frames made of precious wood, and countless other things such as jewelry, spices, tea, bird's nests, donkey-hide gelatin, fish maw, abalone, etc. It took five horse-drawn carriages to hire in the provincial capital to load all the things.
Early that morning, everyone set out from the provincial capital and arrived in Heshan County. They stayed in an inn in the county for one night, and set off early the next morning, deliberately heading for Shaoding Village.
When we arrived at Shaoding Village, it was the time when every household was preparing to cook and eat breakfast. Smoke was rising from every household, chickens were crowing and dogs were barking, and the place was bustling with people.
It’s better to be lively, with more people!
Everyone was a gossipy person. They exchanged glances with each other and then started laughing.
A dozen strangers, dressed in bright clothes and riding horses, led several large carriages into the village. With such a grand scene and pomp, they were the most handsome guys in the village as soon as they appeared, attracting the attention of all the villagers who spotted them.
"Wow, this must be a trip to the Shao family's main house. With so many carriages, how many good things must he bring back?"
