The village head nodded repeatedly.
The blue crabs in the field have already grown up.
Moreover, it gave birth to many baby crabs.
This means that if there are still golden apple snails in the rice paddies next year, they will not need to buy them for Uncle Facai anymore.
Moreover, these mud crabs can be sold for money later.
For them, Gu Lili and Uncle Facai's actions were a tremendous help.
Uncle Fa Cai didn't charge for the blue crab seedlings, nor did he take away the baby crabs that hatched from them.
Gu Lili handed over the notification to the village head's grandmother and headed home.
Just as Gu Lili arrived at Master Yuan's house, she heard a loud "boom," which startled her.
They hurriedly looked towards Master Yuan's courtyard and saw that Master Yuan's kitchen had collapsed.
Gu Lili quickly ran to the side. Judging from the appearance, it must have been that the craftsmen who built the girls' school dug the foundation too close, which caused them to knock down Master Yuan's kitchen.
Previously, when Master Yuan was building his house, he did not demolish the kitchen because he cherished the old days; instead, he left it behind.
Before we even got close, we saw several craftsmen dragging a craftsman out of the ruins.
Gu Lili recognized the man immediately; he was Qian Cong, the nephew of the craftsman Qian.
"Is he alright?" Gu Lili asked anxiously.
Building a girls' school is a beneficial thing for the people; if it results in loss of life, then it is a sin.
The injured craftsman was carried to the ground by others. His face was pale, and he was panting heavily. He said, "I'm...I'm fine. My leg was just punctured."
Qian Cong stammered in response; he had been terrified.
The reason he needed to be carried out was because his legs were so weak with fear.
The injury on his leg was not serious.
"Is there anyone still down here?" Gu Lili asked.
Qian Cong quickly shook his head, indicating that he did not.
Fortunately, the kitchen was built in a very simple way; if it were a brick house, something terrible would have happened.
Hearing the commotion, Craftsman Qian jogged over, not even bothering to greet Gu Lili.
He then anxiously checked Qian Cong's injuries, and when he found that there was nothing seriously wrong, he slapped Qian Cong on the head.
"You brat! You better watch your step when you're doing chores. Look what you've done to me!"
Qian Cong covered his head, not daring to utter a sound.
Gu Lili realized that Qian Cong wasn't really to blame for this.
He was digging the foundation, which was still some distance from Master Yuan's kitchen.
Perhaps it's because this kitchen is so old that it's already on the verge of collapse.
In addition, Qian Cong was digging the foundation next to it, which caused the vibration, which led to the collapse of the kitchen.
Actually, this can be considered a good thing.
Qian Cong was young and had good reflexes; he ran to the side as soon as he heard the noise.
If Master Yuan happened to be inside, and the house collapsed, I'm afraid...
The craftsman Qian was still cursing at Qian Cong, and Gu Lili quickly stopped him.
“Craftsman Qian, don’t talk about him. It’s not his fault. Look, the wood is rotten. It’s normal for it to collapse. I’ll talk to Master Yuan later and I’ll help him rebuild a kitchen.”
As Gu Lili spoke, she handed the medicine from her sleeve to Craftsman Qian.
Originally, it was the siblings who lived in Master Yuan's house.
She had intended to rebuild a house for Master Yuan, but Master Yuan refused.
Now that the house has been destroyed by the craftsmen she hired, Master Yuan has no reason to refuse to rebuild it.
The craftsman's expression softened slightly; in truth, he wasn't blaming Qian Cong.
That's right, the thought that if Qian Cong had been trapped inside just now, his heart would have been in his throat, fearing that something might have happened to Qian Cong.
If something really happens, how will he explain it to his older brother and sister-in-law?
"You brat, hurry up and thank the county magistrate for the medicine," Qian the craftsman said to Qian Cong in an annoyed tone.
Qian Cong grinned at Gu Lili and thanked her.
He knew, of course, that his second uncle didn't really mean to hit him; he was just worried about him.
Seeing that this silly boy could still laugh, Craftsman Qian glared at him in annoyance.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness. I'm so sorry to have troubled you," said Craftsman Qian, bowing with his hands clasped.
Gu Lili waved her hand, because Qian Cong's injury was to his leg, and it was not appropriate for her, a woman, to stay there.
After instructing Qian Cong to apply the medicine and then rest well, Gu Lili headed to the Han Family Academy.
Master Yuan is unaware of this matter yet; Gu Lili must go and inform him.
Gu Lili arrived at the academy, and as soon as she reached the gate, she heard the clear and melodious sound of students reading aloud. It seemed that classes had not yet ended, so Gu Lili simply strolled around the Han Family Academy.
This is Gu Lili's second time entering the Han Family Academy.
The first time I came here was when I was sending Gu Yanyu to school for the first time and paying her tuition.
Perfect timing! This time, I'll see how the Han Family Academy was built, so that the girls' school can learn from its best practices.
As she was wandering around, Yuanbao spotted her and ran towards Gu Lili.
"Princess, what brings you here? Are you looking for our young master? He's in class right now. Shall I go and call him for you? He'll be overjoyed if he knows you're here!"
Before Gu Lili could react, Yuanbao started chattering incessantly.
Gu Lili couldn't help but take a small step back, her brows furrowing slightly.
This gold ingot, which I haven't seen for only about a month, has become so fussy.
Actually, you can't blame Yuanbao for this.
Han Mingyue has been sullen lately. After much thought, Yuanbao finally figured out the reason.
It seems that ever since Gu Lili said she was busy and stopped cooking for them, their young master has become unhappy.
Even when he deliberately provoked Han Mingyue, she no longer punished him by making him catch fleas for Dahuang.
This made Yuanbao very anxious.
He knew that his young master's feelings for Gu Lili were quite special.
Although His Highness the Crown Prince appeared later, my young master still had Gu Lili on his mind.
He used to be able to see Gu Lili from afar, but now he's not even allowed to go to the Gu family home for meals. How can he be happy?
That's why Yuanbao reacted so strongly when Gu Lili came today.
He was hoping that his young master would quickly pull himself together and study diligently with Master Yuan.
If they pass the imperial examinations as soon as possible, they can return to the capital sooner.
He had heard from Cuizhu that they would stay in Guzhuang for a maximum of one year before returning to the capital.
He also wanted to return to the capital, after all... after all, the capital is home.
“I’m not looking for Han Mingyue, I’m looking for Master Yuan,” Gu Lili replied calmly.
Upon hearing this, Yuanbao's face immediately fell.
It seems I was happy for nothing. But even if he came to see Master Yuan, my young master would surely be happy to see Gu Lili.
"Princess, is there something you need?"
