Chapter 50 First Meeting Grandpa
Bao Taozi lifted the curtain and looked at the man lying on the bed, Zhou Ziyi, the legitimate son of General Weiyuan.
He looks like seventeen and is quite handsome.
There was no need to waste any time, Bao Taozi asked the servant to help Zhou Ziyi up.
He pretended to take out the pills exchanged by the system from his sleeve pocket and stuffed them into the other person's mouth.
The pill melts in your mouth.
He quietly poured him a cup of spiritual spring water, as if to cleanse his bones and marrow. After all, he had been stupid for so many years, and his body must have been torn apart. Since he was being cured, he should be cured once and for all.
After doing all this, he saw that the person on the bed had black dirt oozing out of his body, so he quickly ordered the servant to prepare bath water.
He then retreated.
"It's already been treated. The toxins in the body will be eliminated soon. Just change the water frequently."
Then he glanced at the general and said, "I'm afraid it will hurt a bit. If the general has any plans, it's best to cover the young master's mouth."
The general understood and motioned the servant to go in.
Then he personally brought two chairs and placed them in the yard.
"Miss Bao! Please sit down!"
Bao Taozi didn't act pretentiously. He thanked the man and sat down.
Half an hour later, the door opened.
A young man in a crescent-colored robe walked out of the door, tears in his eyes but clear.
General Weiyuan stood up suddenly!
"My son! My son!"
Zhou Ziyi also rushed into General Weiyuan's arms like a firecracker!
"Dad! Your son misses you so much!"
The mighty general held his son tightly in his arms, and it was a long time before the two separated.
The mighty general pulled Zhou Ziyi to stand in front of Bao Taozi.
"Kneel down quickly in front of Miss Bao! Thank you for saving my life!"
Zhou Ziyi didn't say much, he just lifted his robe and knelt down.
Bao Taozi stopped him.
It is a mutually beneficial thing. I am not saving people out of kindness.
"Mighty General, there is no need to kneel. I cannot bear your kneeling. I saved Young Master Zhou for a purpose. If I kneel, I will not be able to sleep at night." This was ancient times. How could you let a man of higher status than yourself kneel to a little girl like you? If you kneel, the favor you will receive later will be less.
The mighty general stroked his beard and nodded, admiring the peach wrapping.
"Tell me! What do you need me to do?"
Bao Taozi smiled and said, "General, just remember this for now. I'll tell you when the time comes. As for my marriage with Young Master Zhou, I hope you can help me push for it."
When she delivered the message, she said that she would not marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion, but she could use this to squeeze some blood out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and naturally she would force him to pay a dowry and the privileges for a period of time.
The mighty general naturally agreed. Although he admired the other party very much, he could not repay kindness with enmity and insist on marrying her.
......
After finishing the job, the man in black carried Bao Taozi back to the room.
When Pearl saw her young lady climbing out of the window, she hurried to meet her.
"Second Miss! You're finally back! Something big happened in the mansion!"
Bao Taozi asked while changing her clothes, "Oh? What's going on?"
"Auntie Sun has returned to her spirit! She cried tears of blood in the mistress's room! She pointed at the mistress and demanded her life! It was terrifying! Biyu went to see it. We weren't afraid, but even the Prime Minister was so pale that he collapsed on the ground. It was a relief, but he's gone now!"
Bao Taozi raised an eyebrow. He was busy treating the illness at night and forgot to ask Bai Wuchang to send the soul of the original owner's mother up. He didn't expect that he could do it by himself.
"I know. Mother probably came back for revenge. Let's just pretend we know nothing." After saying that, she climbed onto the bed and closed her eyes.
"I'm taking a rest. Put out the candle."
Zhenzhu thought the girl was just sad because she was thinking about her mother, so she didn't say anything more. She turned off the light and went to the outer room to watch.
......
The next day, Bao Taozi asked Biyu to give some water to Xiu Ma, who was still in the toilet. No one came to look for her until now. Perhaps they were so scared by what happened last night that they forgot that there was someone who had not returned.
This Aunt Xiu often bullied the original owner by relying on her title as the mistress, so it is reasonable for me to help her torture others.
Thanks to the chaos last night, Bao Taozi was able to leave the house smoothly today.
After rushing and hurrying, we finally arrived at Ji'an Temple on time.
Zhenzhu supported Bao Taozi and walked slowly to the ancient tree.
Under the tree, a white-haired, hunched figure appeared in front of Bao Taozi.
"Grandpa, I'm here."
Hearing the sound, the old man slowly turned around.
"Is that you? Taotao? My granddaughter..."
It’s not the old man’s fault, the two of them have never met before.
"It's me, Grandpa."
Sun Guowei straightened his back and looked Bao Taozi up and down. It looked like him, really like him.
He asked cautiously, "You're looking for me. Did someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion bully you?"
Bao Taozi saw that the old man was feeling awkward, so he took the initiative to step forward and support him.
"Grandpa, life is tough, but that's not why I came to see you."
The two walked slowly into the temple, and Bao Taozi helped Sun Guowei into the arranged room.
After the two sat down, Sun Guowei sent the servants away.
"Grandpa, I asked you to come this time because I wanted to give credit to our Sun family."
Our Sun family.
Sun Guowei stroked his beard and pondered what his granddaughter meant.
"How do you get credit?"
"Tell me, if we discover a high-yield grain variety and provide dry rations for use during marches and battles, how would the current emperor react?"
"How dare I guess what His Majesty means!" He lowered his voice again.
"But if there really are such grains and dry rations, promotions are essential. Our emperor is a good man. If you have such things, just hand them over. There is no need to be afraid!"
Then he stood up excitedly, turned left and right and asked, "Are you serious about what you said?"
"Really? But I don't want the credit to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. If it benefits the Prime Minister's Mansion, my granddaughter will feel as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a bug." Bao Taozi said seriously.
Sun Guowei laughed heartily.
I like this granddaughter’s personality!
"Can you show me what this high-yield grain is?"
"certainly."
After saying that, he took out a potato and a sweet potato from his sleeve.
"This is a foreign species, and it yields a thousand kilograms per mu."
Sun Guowei jumped up from his seat in shock!
"What did you say! What's the yield per mu?!"
Bao Taozi smiled and helped Sun Guowei sit down. After he settled down, he said, "A thousand catties per mu! No more, no less!"
Oh my God!
This isn't just a matter of promotion! If it were true, the people of Canglan would be saved!
Covering his pounding heart and calming himself down, Sun Guowei looked at his granddaughter seriously.
"If it's true, such a great achievement cannot be taken away by our Sun Mansion. This credit must fall on you!"
Bao Taozi felt relieved, knowing that he had not misjudged the person.
"Granddaughter saves."
Sun Guowei nodded heavily and could no longer sit still.
"We have to plan it carefully! How should we report it..." For the first time, the old man felt that his low-ranking position was causing trouble!
Bao Taozi consoled him, "Grandpa, don't worry. These potatoes won't be planted until March, but I can't wait any longer. I want to show my face to the Emperor as soon as possible, so I want to get some food ready for the soldiers on the border. Grandpa, I'll have to trouble you to submit a memorial on my behalf, saying that the Sun family has found a way to solve the problem of insufficient food and fodder on the border. Ask the Emperor to summon me to the palace. That way, the Prime Minister won't be held responsible. The Emperor is smart and will understand."
Sun Guowei pondered the feasibility and made up his mind to take a gamble even if it was just for the sake of the people!
