The two of them took Dahuang to the village.
Most of the houses in the village are thatched houses, with a few rammed earth houses occasionally.
The villagers were all dressed in rags. It was so cold, they were wearing thin clothes and no shoes.
Even the children were wearing very little clothes and no shoes or socks. Their little feet were red from the cold as they stepped in the mud.
But they seem to have gotten used to it.
Yu Jinshu had imagined many kinds of tenants living in difficult situations, but she had never expected them to live so miserably.
Wei Youqing watched all this and frowned tightly.
He and Yu Jinshu looked like gods, and the children gathered around them.
Yu Jinshu squatted down and held the hand of a girl. Her hand was frozen like ice. "Little girls, you are wearing so little, aren't you cold?"
Of course she knew they were cold, but she was only saying this for Wei Youqing to hear.
The little girl stared at Yu Jinshu's clothes with envy in her eyes: "Sister, we don't have good clothes to wear."
Wei Youqing also squatted down and looked at the little girl: "Where are your shoes? Why aren't you wearing shoes?"
The little girl looked at the leather boots on Wei Youqing and Yu Jinshu's feet and shook her head: "We don't have shoes to wear. We only wear straw sandals when it snows."
Wei Youqing felt as if his breath was blocked in his heart. He regretted giving Huang Ningxiang ten taels of silver yesterday in order to test her.
If I were to use ten taels of silver to buy them clothes and shoes, I don't know how much I could buy.
Wei Youqing took Yu Jinshu to the tenant's house to see that they were eating porridge soup, and there was no rice in the porridge, let alone meat.
They also asked about things on the farm and learned that the headman had withheld their food, leaving them hungry and naked. Wei Youqing was extremely angry.
After going to the village head's house, he ordered people to arrest the village head.
In the next few days, Wei Youqing did not go to the military camp. He and Yu Jinshu worked together to deal with the affairs of the manor.
Buy clothes, shoes and hats for the tenants, buy bedding, and repair their houses.
Yu Jinshu was worried about building a school.
There are hundreds of children in Zhuangzi, and none of them have ever been to school.
Huang Ningxiang became anxious because she didn't wait for Wei Youqing to come to the incense shop these days.
Just at this time, the eldest brother Huang Xiaoguan came to the store to ask for money.
Huang Ningxiang was in a bad mood: "The general hasn't come to see me for six days. I'm afraid he has forgotten me."
Huang Xiaoguan recalled what happened seven days ago and brought it up: "The last time I came out of the incense shop, I ran into Wei Youqing. He locked me up and asked me how much money I took from you."
Huang Ningxiang was startled when she heard this and stood up suddenly: "Brother, what did you say?"
Huang Xiaoguan said, "Last time, I asked you for a few taels of silver, but you didn't give it to me. So I left, and not long after I got off, I ran into Wei Youqing. He grabbed me by the neck with such force that he almost strangled me to death."
Huang Ningxiang asked anxiously, "What did you just say he asked you?"
Huang Xiaoguan said: "Ask me how much money I got from you."
Huang Ningxiang was so anxious that she jumped up and down: "What did you say?"
Huang Xiaoguan: "I didn't take it! I told him I didn't take it."
Huang Ningxiang slumped down, tears welling up in her eyes. "No wonder the general didn't look for me for six days in a row. It turns out it's because of this."
Huang Xiaoguan didn't understand, so he tilted his head and asked, "Why?"
Huang Ningxiang naturally couldn't tell her elder brother that she had taken ten taels of silver from Wei Youqing, otherwise the ten taels of silver would definitely be lost.
"No, nothing. You don't understand what's going on between the general and me. Go away! I don't have any money to give you."
Huang Xiaoguan's face was filled with disappointment, and he asked again, "What about the tenant?"
Huang Ningxiang said angrily, "Why are you in such a hurry? They just moved in and something happened. Why don't you just tell them it was us who did it?"
Huang Xiaoguan nodded and left without saying anything.
Huang Ningxiang was thinking about how to win back Wei Youqing.
"No, if the general doesn't come, I'll go find him."
She closed the shop and went to wait on the road where Wei Youqing was going to the military camp, but she waited for two days but still couldn't find him.
It seems that I can only wait in front of the general's mansion.
Under the current circumstances, she was even more afraid to go to the general's mansion, but she had no choice as she hadn't seen the general for eight days.
It was not until evening that the carriage from the general's mansion slowly arrived.
Huang Ningxiang was hiding in the alley. She saw Wei Youqing getting off the carriage from afar and immediately rushed over.
"General..."
But at this time, Wei Youqing was helping Yu Jinshu get off the carriage with gentle movements.
Huang Ningxiang was so furious when she saw this scene that she pushed Yu Jinshu in a fit of rage.
Yu Jinshu lost his balance and was about to fall, but he pulled Wei Youqing into his arms.
Huang Ningxiang was furious and cried, "General, you knew me first, you fell in love with me first, how could you hug her? Didn't you say you wanted to divorce her?"
Wei Youqing was worried about alarming his father, so he glanced at Cheng Shu and said, "Escort the young lady into the mansion."
Cheng Shu stood in front of Huang Ningxiang, and Cai Qing supported Yu Jinshu and escorted him into the mansion.
Yu Jinshu saw that Wei Youqing wanted to make peace with Huang Ningxiang.
After seeing Huang Ningxiang's true character, Wei Youqing was able to calm down immediately. It seems that he is not a love-brained person and acts decisively.
After Yu Jinshu entered the gate, Wei Youqing stared at Huang Ningxiang and said coldly, "A Ning, I did love you before. I loved your innocence and kindness, but you disappointed me so much. From now on, we are over. There is no need to have any further contact."
"General, you can't stop loving me. I have nothing but you."
