Yu Jiao nodded, "The court will soon send officials to the north to provide disaster relief."
Yu Zhizhou immediately understood what Yu Jiao meant, "The grain store business won't last long?"
"We don't have much food left." Yu Jiao said, "Brother San should go out for a walk instead of staying in the grain store."
These words were exactly what Yu Zhizhou wanted. He had long wanted to travel around and see what the outside world was like.
Yu Jiao was willing to let him do this because she trusted him.
Yu Zhizhou said solemnly, "You are right. I will definitely live up to your trust and get the job done. When will I leave?"
Yu Jiao gathered the hair around her ears and said, "Don't worry. There is a grain store in Danzhou, which is managed by Manager Zhou. I will send someone to Danzhou to deliver a letter tomorrow. If Manager Zhou can come back, you two can go to Xuanzhou and Jiangnan together. Manager Zhou is a capable person, and you should be able to learn a lot from him."
Yu Zhizhou was originally a little nervous. If he went to Xuanzhou and Jiangnan alone, he would inevitably be at a loss. After hearing Yu Jiao's careful consideration, he no longer had anything to worry about.
At the same time, he was secretly amazed in his heart that Yu Jiao actually opened a grain shop in Danzhou. Danzhou was the worst hit by the disaster, and selling grain in Danzhou would probably not be a very good business.
Yu Fuling brought the food into the room and saw the two chatting animatedly. She smiled and asked, "Eat first. We can talk after dinner if you have anything to say."
"Okay." Yu Jiao stood up and went outside with a smile. After getting some water to wash her hands, she went to the kitchen to help Yu Fuling serve the food and delivered it to the waiter in the front yard.
The three of them had dinner in the hall in the backyard. Yu Zhizhou didn't stay any longer. "It's getting late. I'm going to the front yard to rest first. Sister Yu Jiao, Fuling, we'll talk tomorrow."
Yu Fuling sent Yu Zhizhou to the front yard. The servant had already cleaned up the room for him. Yu Fuling did not follow him into the room. She said outside the door, "Third brother, if there is anything missing in the room, please let me know tomorrow."
Yu Zhizhou responded. This room was much more spacious than his home and was very tidy. As a grown man, he didn't care about many things. As long as the bed was warm, it was enough.
"Sister Fuling, you should also rest early." Yu Zhizhou turned around and said.
Yu Fuling smiled and responded. She returned to the backyard and saw Yu Jiao washing pots and bowls in the kitchen. She stepped forward and said, "You just came back, just take a rest. I'll do these things."
Yu Jiao didn't let her get involved. "I'm not tired from sitting in the carriage all the way. You've been working hard these days."
Yu Fuling was also busy. She added a bucket of water to another pot and went to the stove to light the fire. "What are your plans for calling my third brother here?"
Yu Jiao told her about the paper mill in detail. Yu Fuling sighed and said, "It's a pity that you and I are not men, otherwise we can do these things."
Yu Jiao laughed and teased, "If you were a man, what would your brother-in-law do?"
After being teased by Yu Jiao for a long time, Yu Fuling was no longer shy when she mentioned Zhao Yu, and said, "It would be great if Zhao Yu had also studied, so that he could help you with more things."
"Everyone has his own destiny. I think my brother-in-law is an ambitious man. Who knows, he may become a big shot in the future." Yu Jiao suddenly remembered that she had not yet told Yu Fuling about Yu Qizhe's trip to the capital, so she mentioned it casually.
"Qi Zhe went to the capital? It's a pity that I couldn't see him off. Fortunately, you rushed back." Yu Fuling added a handful of firewood to the stove and said, "He went to the capital alone, which makes people a little worried."
Yu Jiao wiped the water stains on her hands, and came to the stove, squatting beside Yu Fuling, and said, "After we are done with this, let's go to the capital to see him. We can't let him spend the New Year alone in the capital."
