Qin Mu didn't respond to that question, but simply nodded, then changed the subject and asked:
"So, sir, you mean to go and inspect the spring?"
"Okay! Let's resolve the issue of the people from Wuning County settling here first, then we'll come back for lunch."
Today is your wedding day, so it wouldn't be right for Madam Chi to host the lunch banquet alone.
After we finish eating and take care of the matters concerning the Xiechi'ao people, we'll head straight into the mountains.
By the way, this afternoon you should call the messenger who was supposed to deliver the message down the mountain.
He would then need to take the list of registered households to the government office for record-keeping.
"Alright! I wonder if you would like to go into the mountains with just the few of us this time, or find a few clever people from Chijia'ao to go with us?"
Fang Shizhong was, after all, a prince, and he valued his own safety very much.
Even though he himself was quite skilled, and had a trustworthy Qin Mu by his side.
But the Northern Lian Mountains are teeming with wild beasts, so he naturally hoped there would be more people around.
Thinking about it, he said, "Bring a few more! By the way, how many days will it take for this round trip?"
"About four days, plus the journey back to the county town, it will take five days!"
Fang Shizhong was satisfied when he heard that he could get the sweet potatoes in five days.
"Alright, go out and prepare. I'll write a letter, and you can have someone send it over later."
"good!"
When Qin Mu came out of Fang Shizhong's room, he saw Shen Kai waiting outside the door.
He immediately said, "Ah Kai, after the adults have tallied the number of people settling in Beishan this afternoon, they want to go into the Beilian Mountains to check the spring."
Go to the old clan chief's house now and talk to him about this.
Tell him to gather a few skilled young men from the clan and go into the mountains with them in the afternoon.
Remember to invite several people.
If those people go out to do something, remember to have someone call them back. We need to ensure the safety of the adults.
By the way, this trip into the mountains will take three or four days round trip; they should explain this to their families.
Having been by Qin Mu's side for a long time, Shen Kai had a vague idea about many things.
He nodded upon hearing this, and before leaving, he handed the basket back to Qin Mu.
As soon as he left, Qin Mu saw Chi Ye going out to move tables and chairs.
"Ah Ye, come here, I have something to tell you!"
Chi Ye anticipated that many people from the clan would come to see his aunt's wedding today, so he didn't ask to borrow tables and chairs from everyone in advance.
Even his own family couldn't withstand it.
After the ceremony was completed and the crowd dispersed, he began to busy himself with these matters.
Upon hearing Qin Mu's words, he strode over and placed his table in the main room.
The first thing he did after arriving was to lightly punch Qin Mu on the shoulder.
"From this day forward, you are truly my uncle-in-law."
You have to treat my aunt well, otherwise we won't be brothers anymore!
When asked about this change in identity, Qin Mu smiled and agreed.
"Of course! We've been brothers for so many years, you know me well."
They either don't get married at all, or once they do, they only recognize one person.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I have something to tell you."
After saying that, he led the person to the vegetable garden in the backyard.
After confirming that no one was around, he whispered:
“Ah Ye, I know your aunt has a celestial being protecting her.”
Here's the thing: your aunt has something to give to the adults, but she can't give it to them right now and needs to wait a few days.
As you heard what the master said last night, he wants to go down the mountain today.
I stalled him, letting him go into the Beilian Mountains to check the water source.
That concerns your aunt and the entire Anping County community in the future.
