"Miss, you are finally back!"
As soon as Wei Yunlan's carriage drove into the yard, Ningshuang and Tingxue trotted out to greet them.
"Did you have a smooth journey?"
"It went smoothly." Wei Yunlan nodded slightly, thinking of the row of fenced-off houses he saw beside the carriage before it entered the courtyard, "Outside is..."
"This is the workshop that the eldest young lady had newly renovated and repaired." Ningshuang reported to Wei Yunlan everything that had happened in Lihezhuang in the past two days.
With Gao's help, Cheng Yue'e successfully selected twenty women to serve as embroiderers and receive her guidance.
Now, some of these people who are more skilled have been able to sew a hand warmer independently under the guidance of Cheng Yue'e.
Seeing Wei Yunlan coming back, Cheng Yue'e also hurried over and said, "Yunlan, I have almost finished what you asked me to do. Now the embroiderers in the manor can already sew the patterns I taught them."
Everything is ready, except for the first batch of "raw materials" to be delivered.
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard a commotion outside. Before he could send anyone out to inquire, he saw a black shadow rushing into the yard and heading straight towards Wei Yunlan.
Looking closely, it was not the one she sent to Lishui County where there were dark clouds in the east and west, but who else could it be?
Heiyun has already returned to Lihezhuang, and the brothers Tangchuan and Tanghai, who were transporting the goods, should be arriving soon.
"Sister-in-law, please let everyone rest early today. I'm afraid we will be busy tomorrow."
Cheng Yue'e responded crisply and hurried to the row of workshops outside.
The twenty village women she had found were now sitting in the workshop, practicing how to make hand warmers using the ramie cloth found by Cheng Yue'e and Gao.
Following Cheng Yue'e, Gao also came over.
She was talking about the grain that was transported back from Tianwangzhuang. "It has all been arranged. It will be kept in the warehouse of this villa for the next two days. When the granary on the mountain is completed in two days, 70% of this batch of grain will be stored in that granary."
It is said that if you have food on hand, you will not be worried.
Gao was thinking the same thing now, and her tone of voice was a little more relaxed than usual. "It was a good idea to buy Tianwang Manor and Lihe Manor. Even if Huangzhou encounters a drought this year and the harvest drops sharply, it is enough to support our family and the people living on the farm."
"By the way, Lan'er, there's a letter from your father as well."
As Gao spoke, she took out a wrinkled letter from her bosom.
Wei Yunlan took it and read it. The letter described the situation in Beiguan City in the past two days.
"It turns out that the Liang family has also arrived at Beiguan. Dad has also spoken to Old Madam Bai..."
Counting the days, it will be the deadline set by the court in a few days. As family members of criminal officials, the court's restrictions on them are not that strict, but it is not good to exceed this deadline, so as to give people something to complain about.
"Mom, let's get ready in the next few days, and then we'll set off for Beiguan in three days."
…
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
The people in Lihe Village have been working non-stop for three days, especially Wei Yunlan, who is in charge of all matters. He even wishes he could split himself into three people.
Only after she had left her staff behind, given instructions for the next arrangements, and boarded the carriage to Beiguan did she have the opportunity to rest, relax, and take a short nap.
When people are busy, time passes very quickly.
However, when you have nothing to do, time passes very slowly.
For example, Princess Danning, who is now in a small courtyard in the mountains, looking at the mountain scenery outside the courtyard and feeling the tranquility in the courtyard, feels that every moment is like torture.
Three days!
For three whole days, apart from the men in black who showed up on time for three meals a day, she didn't see any other people.
Song Changke, who had been away for three days, had not sent any news back.
Thinking of the wolf howling she heard that night, she felt extremely regretful and blamed herself for not dissuading Song Changke from going down the mountain alone to get help.
What if that night...
She simply didn't dare to think about it any further!
In secret, two people from the Tianshu Pavilion who were responsible for keeping an eye on the situation in the courtyard saw Princess Daning lying on the stone table and wiping her tears again, and they couldn't help but sigh in unison.
Princess Daning and the couple Song Changke have been moving around on the mountain and under the noses of the people in Tianshu Pavilion these days.
Everyone in Tianshu Pavilion knew exactly what was going on with Song Changke.
As men, they all couldn't stand what Song Changke did...
It turned out that not long after being picked up by the Yao brothers and sisters that day, Song Changke woke up slowly and made up an identity for himself as a young master of a noble family who traveled around the states.
As for the fact that he appeared in the wild forest covered in blood, it was because Fang You accidentally encountered bad guys on the way. His followers were killed, his money was taken away, and he finally escaped alone, but got lost in the wild forest.
He called the Yao brothers and sisters "benefactors" all the time, and even took off his jade ring and gave it to them.
He said that if his benefactor had not rescued him, his life would have been lost in the forest today.
Yao Changshan was reluctant to accept the gift and only told him to rest at home for two days and leave as soon as his injury got better. However, Yao Shuang'er scolded her brother for being so cold and heartless, and took the jade ring...
There were no carvings on the jade ring, and the jade was exceptionally lustrous and transparent. Even people who didn't know much about jade could tell at a glance that it was of great value.
Taking the opportunity to go to the town to buy medicine, Yao Shuang'er went to the pawnshop to inquire, and the pawnshop owner directly offered a high price of five hundred taels of silver!
She was so shocked that she no longer had any doubts about the identity Song Changke fabricated.
In this way, Song Changke stayed in the Yao family. Although he had no servants to serve him, he was cared for by Yao Shuang'er.
But within two or three days, the two people who had just met for the first time had become friends.
Some of the scenes were so disgusting that those people in the Tianshu Pavilion in secret wanted to poke their own eyes out.
Relying on his good looks and a status that he felt was far superior to that of ordinary people, Song Changke did not see anything wrong in harming a girl who was only a few years older than his daughter.
Yao Shuang'er was even more dazzled by the beauty and wealth in front of her. Even though the people from Tianshu Pavilion reminded her many times through the villagers and the peddler, she ignored them completely and was determined to let Song Changke take her away from the village after he recovered from his injuries...
"Good words cannot persuade a dying ghost. It's a pity that Princess Daning is still crying for this shameless pretty boy every day."
The people from Tianshu Pavilion secretly stopped the letter that Song Changke was trying to send out through the Yao brothers and sisters.
Seeing that he was not in any hurry to go up the mountain to rescue Princess Daning except sending a letter to contact old friends in Prince Duan's Mansion, I couldn't help but sigh,
"Princess Denning should really be asked to see him with her own eyes!"
