After selling the old house and the land, plus the money left by Xiao Laoer before he left, the people in the old house had several hundred taels of silver.
So they rented a few carriages to take them to Beijing.
Early that morning, a horse-drawn carriage from the county town came to Lao Xiao's house to pick someone up.
After Shi Qingluo heard what the man who came to buy tofu said, he pulled Xiao Hanzheng to see him off.
After loading the gifts onto the carriage, everyone in the Xiao family looked at the house reluctantly.
After all, they have lived here for so many years, and if they suddenly have to leave, it won’t be their home when they come back.
Shi Qingluo saw them like this when he arrived.
So he walked forward and said, "Why are you reluctant to leave this shabby place? You are people who are going to do great things."
"Wouldn't it be nice to live in a general's mansion that's dozens or even a hundred times bigger than your old house?"
"Do you want to come back?"
These words immediately broke the reluctance and sadness of the Xiao family's top talents.
This damn girl, what she said makes so much sense.
The General's Mansion is nothing compared to this shabby place. Why should they be reluctant to leave?
They don't want to come back.
Old Lady Xiao glanced at Shi Qingluo and asked, "Why are you here?"
Shi Qingluo said with a smile: "I can't bear to leave you, so I came to see you off."
People from Old Xiao’s family: “…” So fake.
Shi Qingluo added: "Although we have separated and severed our relationship, isn't he more reliable than your son who only cares about his own happiness and leaves you to continue to suffer in your hometown in the countryside?"
People from Old Xiao’s family: “…” It hurts.
This damn girl must have done it on purpose.
Old Mrs. Xiao said unhappily, "You don't have to come and see me off."
Shi Qingluo came closer to her, looking as if they were in a very good relationship.
She said with a wronged look on her face: "Old lady, what you said really hurts my heart. I have always been thinking about you."
Old Mrs. Xiao got goosebumps all over her body. "If you have something to say, just say it."
Shi Qingluo asked in a low voice: "Half a month ago, did Xiao Hu come to our house and instigate you to come and make trouble with my husband?"
Old Mrs. Xiao widened her eyes, "How did you know?"
Then I found myself being tricked.
But it doesn’t matter. The key point is that she really can’t figure out how the dead girl knew it.
Shi Qingluo raised his hand and pointed to the sky, and said to Huyou with a bit of mystery: "My master is an old immortal, what shouldn't I know?"
Old Lady Xiao: "..." Should I believe it or not? But if I don't believe it, the dead girl can't know about it.
Because of this, he became even more wary of Shi Qingluo.
He had originally been thinking that after arriving at the General's Mansion in the capital, he would ask his grandson to do nothing but write a letter to ask the dead girl for help, but he immediately gave up the idea.
She further explained: "We didn't listen to her instigation."
Shi Qingluo gave her a look that said "I understand." "The old lady is a smart person, of course she won't be fooled by her."
She then asked casually, "You took a horse carriage the whole way to the capital, not by water?"
This is the main point of coming here to see you off today.
Old Mrs. Xiao didn’t think much about it and replied truthfully: “Yes, we have a lot of luggage, and it’s troublesome to move it by water.”
Although the old couple had never been on a long ship journey, they had heard that the water could sometimes be very dangerous.
If the boat capsized or they encountered pirates, they would die, so even though it would take less time to travel by water, they still chose to take a carriage all the way.
Shi Qingluo agreed with her, "Yes, if you get seasick, it will be very painful to be on a boat for a long time. You may get sick or even die."
"Old lady, you are so blessed. Of course you should keep your blessings and live in the general's mansion to enjoy life as an old lady."
So don't change your mind about taking the boat.
A smile appeared on the old lady's originally calm face. She liked to hear these words.
The old immortal’s disciples all said that she was very blessed, so she must be.
Shi Qingluo coaxed, "I just like to tell the truth."
The old lady was even happier, "Don't worry, when we gain a foothold in the capital, we will also benefit from your help."
She thought that Shi Qingluo and the others came to see her off in the hope of benefits in the future.
Shi Qingluo knew that she had misunderstood but did not explain. Instead, he followed her words and said, "I like smart people like old lady the most."
I thought she was also thinking about the benefits of her scumbag father's family, so the old lady and others would trust her advice more.
She asked Xiao Dalang again: "Do you remember what we said before?"
Xiao Dalang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, just wait for my letter."
Shi Qingluo gave him a thumbs up and said, "Very good."
Then the people in the old house got on the carriage one after another. Shi Qingluo smiled warmly and said, "Take care on your journey!"
Cherish the first half of the journey, and don’t cry in the second half. If you have to cry, hold it in until you reach the capital.
The people in the Xiao family didn't know what she was thinking, but they were very happy with her attitude and their dislike for her decreased a lot.
Wait until the carriage completely disappears from sight.
Shi Qingluo turned to look at Xiao Hanzheng, "Old Xiao, I'll leave it to you from now on."
She has already gotten the information out of her, so if she wants to find the person who robbed the money, she will have to go with the young husband, whom she is not familiar with.
Xiao Hanzheng chuckled and took her hand, "Don't worry, just leave it to me."
These people deserve to suffer. They suffered great injustice and went to the capital, which made it easier for them to cause trouble.
He added, "I have to go out the day after tomorrow. It may take ten days or half a month for me to come back. I will do this while I am here."
Shi Qingluo recalled what he had said before, "You go to treat illnesses to make money?"
Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Well, I'll earn a favor by the way."
Shi Qingluo asked: "How far is it?"
Otherwise why would it take ten days or half a month to come back?
Xiao Hanzheng replied: "It's not far to the capital city, but it will take some time."
Shi Qingluo didn't know what happened in the prefecture city, so he didn't ask much. "Then come back early after you finish your work. We are waiting for you at home."
She added, “Leave the construction of the house and the home to me.”
Xiao Hanzheng held her hand tightly and said, "Okay, I'll have to trouble you after I leave."
He liked to hear her say that it was nice to have a home waiting for him at home.
Two days later, Xiao Hanzheng left home, taking with him the medicinal herbs he had recently picked and prepared in the mountains.
That night, Shi Qingluo couldn't sleep.
Looking at the half-empty bed, she sighed. Habit is a terrible thing.
Oh, I miss my husband! Xiao Hanzheng, who was staying in the inn on the other side, also suffered from insomnia.
It was only the first day he came out and he began to miss home and his young wife.
Moreover, he had never suffered from insomnia since his rebirth, but now he was having trouble falling asleep again, just like in his previous life.
He really couldn't get used to not having his young wife lying beside him.
In the following time, while supervising the construction of the house, Shi Qingluo went to the county town to buy a few ordinary chrysanthemums, and grafted and cultivated a tricolor chrysanthemum.
She also took Xiao's mother and Erlang with her and planted the bamboo seedlings she had grown in all the empty spaces on the mountain.
They were all watered with spiritual spring water so that they would not die easily.
That day, she had just returned from her new house.
As soon as I got home, I saw Bai Xu sitting in the yard.
When he saw her come in, a look of excitement appeared on his face.
Shi Qingluo raised the corners of his lips, the fat sheep is coming!
