As the two were talking, Song Dahai came in from outside: "Go if you want to. Er Ya and I will wait for you to come back at home."
"Master, you..."
"Now that we know where our mother is, how could we not go back? Don't worry, Er Ya and I will take good care of the house."
Song Ning nodded in agreement: "Mom, don't worry, we'll all be waiting for you to come home."
Liu Yuelan's eyes were slightly red, and she nodded with a smile. Meanwhile, Yunniang outside the courtyard was silently looking at the moon in the sky, with a slight smile on her lips.
With the support of Song Ning and Song Dahai, Liu Yuelan became bolder and soon decided to go to the capital to take a look.
Upon receiving the news, Xu Wenjie and Xu Wenxing immediately packed their belongings and prepared to return to Beijing.
Song Ning prepared a lot of things for Liu Yuelan. It was her first time going back in so many years, and she couldn't go empty-handed. She had to bring some gifts.
However, they were just ordinary people, and the Marquis's mansion had plenty of what they brought. So, Song Ning brought some things from her spatial storage for Liu Yuelan.
Two days later, the Xu family's carriage came to Tianxiang County to pick up the people. This matter could not be kept secret, and many people came to see them off.
As the carriage drove further away, many people looked at Song Ning and Song Dahai differently, some even thinking that the father and daughter were too foolish and should have gone with them, as they would become nobles in the Marquis's mansion in the future.
That was the Marquis's mansion, a place they could never reach in their entire lives, an opportunity that so many people envied.
Zhou Ling'an was also there, standing beside Song Ning, comforting her: "Don't worry, Aunt Yue Niang will definitely come back."
Song Ning smiled and nodded: "My mother will definitely come back."
"Don't worry, Aunt Yue Niang isn't here, I'll stay with you."
Song Ning chuckled: "That's my mother. You can't possibly be my mother!"
Zhou Ling'an lowered his head in embarrassment. Song Ning suddenly remembered what had happened before and guessed that he still didn't know that he had a problem with his body. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't be able to talk to her so frankly.
After the people outside the courtyard dispersed, Song Ning suddenly said to him, "Wait for me a moment, I have something to give you."
After saying that, she ran back into the house. Zhou Ling'an was overjoyed; Er Ya was actually going to give him something.
Song Ning came out and handed him a small bottle: "This is for you."
What is this?
"This is...something good for the brain. Aren't you about to take an exam? Drink this and you'll become smarter."
Zhou Ling'an chuckled: "There are such things in the world?"
"That's right, I had a hard time getting this stuff, you have to drink it all, and I'll give you more after you finish this bottle."
Zhou Ling'an was stunned. Song Ning was actually willing to give him something so important...
Clenching the small bottle tightly, Zhou Ling'an seemed to have made up his mind: "Er Ya, after I finish my exams this time, I have something I want to tell you."
Why can't we say this now? Why do we have to wait until after the exam?
"Okay, do your best on the exam, I'll take you there."
Zhou Ling'an is currently the only scholar in Tianxiang County. If he can pass the exam, Song Ning will be happy for him.
Zhou Ling'an lowered his head shyly, unaware that Xie Linzhou had seen everything they did from a distance.
However, he did not disturb the two of them. In his eyes, Zhou Ling'an was no threat to him at all.
Even so, seeing Song Ning smiling so happily made him feel uncomfortable.
Zhang Ping stood behind, anxiously watching the two people in front of him.
Didn't you notice? That kid Zhou Ling'an also has a crush on Miss Song.
Xie Linzhou walked straight toward Song Ning.
When Zhou Ling'an saw Xie Linzhou approaching, he quickly bowed respectfully and said, "General Xie."
Song Ning told Zhou Ling'an to go back first and then welcomed Xie Linzhou into the house.
Song Dahai was tying firewood in the yard when he saw Xie Linzhou come in, and he quickly got up to greet him.
Xie Linzhou quickly stepped forward: "No need for formalities."
"General Xie, what brings you here today? Please have a seat, I'll make you some tea."
"No need, I'm just passing by. I'll come in, sit for a bit, and then leave."
Zhang Ping curled his lip behind him. What do you mean by passing by? She clearly came specifically to see Miss Song.
Song Ning knew that this person liked her black tea, so she brought some out from inside the house.
"I haven't had a chance to thank the general yet. Thank you for bringing me back."
"If you really want to thank me, show some sincerity. Just saying thank you isn't enough."
Song Ning: ......
"Then I'll cook more meals for the general from now on."
"There's no need for you to cook, so you don't get tired." He'll feel bad if you get tired.
Song Ning ignored him, afraid that he might say something outrageous that her father might overhear.
"I'm going to take a look around the streets. Would the general be interested in coming with me?"
Today, the streets of Tianxiang County are basically complete. During the time she was away, the area has undergone tremendous changes. In addition to the four main streets in the east, west, south, and north, the smaller streets have also taken shape.
The two walked down the street and encountered many people. Some did not recognize Xie Linzhou, but they all recognized Song Ning, and greetings were exchanged continuously along the way.
Xie Linzhou laughed and said, "You are more popular than I am as a general now."
Song Ning pursed his lips: "I dare not compare myself to the general. The general is a hero who leads troops into battle. I just occasionally give the county magistrate some advice."
That being said, Xie Linzhou knew that this place could be built thanks to Song Ning.
After all, the things Song Ning drew are now in his hands. He has studied them, and those things are something that even the Ministry of Works might not be able to produce.
He was really curious about where Song Ning's ideas came from. She couldn't write, yet she could write poetry. They were both refugees from famine, yet she had such wonderful ideas.
