Chapter 152 Before Leaving
The three of them were so engrossed in their research that they didn't notice someone coming to the gate of the hospital until Xiao Yuan coughed lightly.
Jiang Xinyu didn't expect Xiao Yuan to come back so early today. She rushed over in surprise, hugged his neck and kissed him.
He Zhang was used to bowing and calling him "Supervisor", but Ye Xiao was so shocked that he even forgot to call him.
He didn't expect that this woman would be so shameless as to kiss his godfather in public, and he didn't expect that his godfather would look so happy.
Was my stepfather abducted by someone?
In the past, whenever he was a little lively, he would keep a sullen face to make him look calm.
Who is this man with a charming smile and watery eyes? How can he be stable?
Xiao Yuan was in a good mood after being kissed by his wife, but when he turned around and saw his silly adopted son, his face suddenly darkened.
"I'm getting older and older, and I can't even call people."
Ye Xiao's face froze and he quickly bowed and called him godfather.
That’s right, it was still his serious and stern father with turtle hair.
But he only found out today that his adoptive father could smile so brightly and look so doting, but these were not for him.
Damn it, no wonder this woman is so arrogant, being spoiled is different. He lost completely this time.
Seeing that the two lights were still there, Xiao Yuan coughed lightly. He Zhang understood immediately and pushed Ye Xiao away.
I thought the governor would be able to say a few words to Xiao Ye since he hadn't seen him for many days, but it seems that he was overthinking it. When his wife was around, the governor couldn't see anyone else.
Ye Xiao thought so too. After leaving the yard, he looked unhappy and asked He Zhang in a depressed tone whether they had always been getting along like this.
He Zhang chuckled, "If you really want to know how the governor and his wife get along, why ask me? Wouldn't it be faster to ask Xiaodouzi and Miss July?"
You all know each other, so you should trust what they say more."
It was originally a joke, but Ye Xiao actually took it to heart. He specifically asked his maid to call July over when she was free.
He had indeed taken things for granted in the past, always guessing his adoptive father's thoughts based on his own understanding.
After watching the two of them getting along today, he finally felt that if that woman truly loved his stepfather and could make him happy, it would not be impossible for him to acknowledge her as his stepmother.
After the light bulb left, the shameless couple had a good scolding, but this time Xiao Yuan didn't bring any good news.
The flood in Xuzhou has been reported, and the court is discussing the matter today.
He estimated that he would leave in three days at the earliest and five days at the least.
Jiang Xinyu suddenly panicked and held Xiao Xuan's hand tighter.
In this era, the medical level is low and supplies are scarce in the disaster area. Xiao Yuan's risk factor increases sharply when he goes out.
Coupled with the inconvenient transportation and communication barriers, she felt that she would become depressed if she stayed at home.
Jiang Xinyu hesitated for a long time and wanted to ask Xiao Yuan to let her go, but she swallowed the words back.
She knew it was impossible.
She felt sorry for Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yuan felt sorry for her too. The disaster area was not a good place.
If Xiao Yuan knew that she had such thoughts, he would probably be on high alert and even lock her up.
Then we can only change our thinking.
Jiang Xinyu knew when was the best time for Xiao Yuan to talk, so she put on a newly made sexy gauze at night and tried her best to seduce him.
Governor Xiao has never had much self-control in front of his wife, and since he will be away for a long time, he wants to have fun every night before leaving.
Madam has already put herself on the map, so what are you waiting for?
Of course, start eating.
One was deliberately seducing the other wanted to indulge before parting, and their love affair became more intense than ever.
The secret guard had already run out of the yard in shame, and the unbridled joy of the two of them even drowned out the cicadas' chirping outside.
When it rains salted fish in the center of the river, it is really salted fish and it moves very vigorously.
It was just like a camel storing water. All the energy saved from sleeping was used up, and the whole person felt like he was injected with stimulants.
During the day, she studies the emergency manual and packs things with her son and daughter-in-law, and at night she spends the night with Xiao Yuan, enjoying music and dancing. She can be called a model worker.
Governor Xiao had been indulging himself for several days and his legs felt weak when he went to court. It was really painful and pleasurable.
The old emperor was very satisfied with Xiao Yuan's condition.
Seeing that he looked exhausted and had dark circles under his eyes, he thought he was tired from busying himself with disaster relief preparations, so he singled him out as an example and angrily rebuked the court officials.
Look at Mr. Xiao, and then look at you, you are just sitting there doing nothing and don't even know how to share my worries.
I am worried about the people in the disaster-stricken areas and cannot sleep every night. But you all eat well and sleep soundly, and it is obvious that you do not care about the people in the disaster-stricken areas.
A group of ministers led by Zhang Zhongyi were indignant at being scolded, but they felt happy when they thought that Xiao Yuan would soon go to the disaster area.
No matter how many honors and awards you receive, you have to be alive to spend them.
After the flood, there were starving people everywhere and plague was rampant. No matter how smart and skilled you were, Xiao Yuan, you might not be able to escape.
Unless you live in the government office and stay indoors, not providing disaster relief or repairing dikes, but in that case the entire Yushitai will have work to do.
The day of Xiao Yuan's departure was getting closer, and Ye Xiao fell silent knowing that his adoptive father's trip was dangerous.
On the one hand, he secretly hated Jiang Xinyu for injuring his leg and preventing him from following his adoptive father, and on the other hand, he was afraid that his adoptive father would worry about the family, so he did not dare to show disrespect to Jiang Xinyu.
All he could do now was to cooperate with the woman to pack luggage for his godfather, hoping that these strange things could help his godfather.
Xiao Yuan had a particularly comfortable life these days, with a virtuous wife and filial children, and they lived in harmony. It would have been even more perfect if Xu Qinglan hadn't been there, with tears in her eyes as if she was sending him to the execution ground.
The day of departure finally arrived, and Xiao Yuan left the capital, taking with him hundreds of emergency manuals and a cart full of strange and unique items that could help with disaster relief.
In addition, there are ten pieces of calligraphy with imperial seals that Prince An requested from the emperor.
It doesn't matter how the words are written. What matters is that these words written by Yu himself, such as "benevolent, business, righteous, loyal, upright, and wise", are very tempting to anyone.
As long as the government organized an auction when he passed through the wealthy areas of Jiangnan, he believed that those wealthy businessmen and powerful families would definitely donate a large amount of money and food in exchange for a piece of his calligraphy.
The merchants of Dajin were rich but of low status, and they were willing to empty their family fortunes in order to marry into an official family.
If one could obtain a calligraphy piece written by the emperor himself praising his family's kindness, it would be of great benefit to the entire clan.
This thing may not be of much use in the capital, but in places where the emperor is far away, it is equivalent to a golden medal of immunity from death.
A new official has three things to do when he takes office, and every time a local official is replaced, the businessmen will inevitably have to pay a large sum of money.
But even so, it is inevitable that they will be targeted by someone with ulterior motives and their family will be destroyed.
But it would be a big deal if such a calligraphy was hung in the house. The emperor praised my family for being kind. How dare you bully us?
You don't take the emperor seriously!
It can be said that as long as the Jin Dynasty survives, the value of this calligraphy will become higher and higher.
An emperor can deny his own words but he cannot deny what his father or grandfather said.
The praise my ancestors received from Emperor Taizong and Emperor Taizu for their kindness is much more valuable than the praise my family received from the Emperor.
The old emperor was also quite stingy. When Prince An cautiously said that he would not dare to touch the calligraphy and asked for his permission, he immediately thought of the idea of getting something for nothing.
When Xiao Yuan left Beijing this time, he directly stopped the Ministry of Revenue from allocating funds. He wrote these ten words and then sent his disaster relief envoy away.
The words sound high-sounding, but the central idea is just one.
Life is not easy for the emperor to sell his skills. My dear, please see how much I can get from writing these words and use them first.
If it's not enough, think of a solution yourself. I believe in you!
