Chapter 506 Jiangling City Big Buddha Temple
"It's just a matter of dealing with the military in the county town. It's not a big deal."
Old Master Xu looked at Fubao with a smile, "Why, do you miss your elder brother and the others?"
Fubao blinked and said, "Yeah, my second brother also said he would take me to play around!"
"It's okay, when the time comes, Dad will take you out to play!"
"real?"
Mr. Xu said without hesitation, "Of course!"
Buying grain was indeed important, but it wasn't a big deal. After all, Xiangyi Prefecture was short of grain, but Jiangnan was not. As long as one had money, one could have as much grain as one wanted.
Even if he just raised the flag, there would be people delivering food to his door.
If it was before, Mr. Xu really didn't want to make too much of a fuss about this matter, but now, he is ready to make a bigger fuss.
Originally, Emperor Yongping was suspicious of their family. Who told them to have the surname Xu?
Under such circumstances, no matter what their family did, once it reached the ears of Emperor Yongping, he would inevitably be suspicious. In this case, it would be better to lay everything out in the open.
Prince Yan is also in the capital now. Under normal circumstances, Prince Yan would help him explain a few things.
However, based on Mr. Xu's understanding of Emperor Yongping, this almighty emperor may not take Prince Yan's words seriously.
The so-called brotherhood is nothing in the face of imperial power.
Old Master Xu could see all this clearly, but it was hard to say whether Prince Yan could see it clearly. After all, there is a saying that goes, those who are involved are confused, while those who are on the sidelines can see clearly.
"But aren't we going to buy food?"
Fubao laughed, his big, shining eyes blinking. "Dad, do you have time to take me out to play?"
"Don't worry, there's still time."
"Really?"
Fubao had already confirmed one thing after a conversation with her father: her father had left her three brothers in Kun County to cause trouble. Of course, Fubao couldn't guess what it was, but the only thing she was sure of was that it was definitely not a small matter. After all, her father was too easy to talk to this time.
Generally speaking, this person has something in his heart that he doesn't want others to know, so he will not bargain at all when others ask him to.
Right now, this is what Mr. Xu is like.
However, although he guessed that his father was hiding something, Fubao cleverly chose to keep it secret.
"You little bastard!"
When Mr. Xu saw the change in his daughter's eyes, he quickly realized that he had been exposed.
However, the old man was a seasoned veteran after all. He raised his hand and gently scratched Fubao's nose, whispering, "Don't tell your mother. This is our little secret, okay?"
“Okay!”
Of course, Fubao couldn't tell his mother about this. After all, if his mother knew about it, she would definitely think too much about it.
If my mother thinks too much, she will definitely be in a bad mood.
Fubao is still very filial. He doesn't want his mother to worry about all kinds of things every day. It's purely groundless worry.
She is a blessing, and her family, influenced by her, will definitely not encounter any major disasters in this life. So, why think about those trivial things?
Just be happy in this life!
…
The passenger ship was moving downstream at a very fast speed.
After passing Jiangzhou Prefecture, it is Jiangcheng Prefecture, and once the boat passes Jiangcheng Prefecture, it enters the territory of Jiangnan.
In fact, Jiangnan is a general term that covers the four prefectures of the Tang Dynasty.
Jiangcheng Prefecture, Jinling Prefecture, Haizhou Prefecture and Yiling Prefecture.
During this trip to the south of the Yangtze River, Fubao confirmed one thing, that is, the planet where the Tang Dynasty was located was not the Earth where she once lived.
This is truly a different time and space.
It was a completely unfamiliar geographical environment, with only some place names that had some similarities.
However, Fubao didn't dwell on this too much. After all, she just wanted to confirm where she was. Once she was sure, it was confirmed. It was like a wish had been fulfilled.
Apart from that, nothing else matters.
Of course, because this is not the Jiangnan she is familiar with, Fubao is less interested in traveling.
However, delicious food cannot be missed.
When Mr. Xu revealed his identity in Jiangling City, he immediately became a busy man.
Fubao lost interest in sightseeing, so he started to taste the food.
Although his biological father could not accompany him, Fubao still went out for a stroll with his biological mother, Old Lady Xu, his adoptive aunt, Princess Yuyan, and her three sisters-in-law, leading a group of people.
When people come to Jiangling City, one place they must visit is the Big Buddha Temple.
The Big Buddha Temple is the most popular temple in Jiangling City, and the vegetarian food here is also unique.
In order to establish a relationship with Mr. Xu, a first-rank marquis, Jiangling City's county magistrate Lin Dong is now directly practicing the diplomacy of the ladies.
The most coincidental thing is that Lin Dong's wife is from the Changshan Shen family, and is a distant relative of Shen Wansheng, the prefect of Xiangyi Prefecture.
So, Shen became the guide for Old Lady Xu and her group as they strolled around Jiangling City.
In the past, Old Lady Xu would never have dared to think of having the wife of a county magistrate act as a guide. But now, she is used to it.
After all, Old Madam Xu is now a first-rank imperial concubine, and Old Second Xu's wife, Li, is also an imperial concubine. There is also Princess Yuyan who is traveling with her, and Fubao is also a county lady.
Considering this, it was a bit of a stretch for Shen, the wife of the county magistrate, to be their guide.
However, Old Mrs. Xu didn't think about these things.
In her life, she was born into a wealthy family, but later her family fell into poverty. She suffered a lot with Old Man Xu. Now that she has become rich again, Old Lady Xu has become more open-minded.
In addition to Shen Wansheng's relationship, Mrs. Xu was really close to Shen, and the two of them became like sisters.
In this way, both Fubao and her three sisters-in-law became juniors.
Lin Dong has been married to Shen for many years and has a son and a daughter. Of course, neither the son nor the daughter is around at the moment.
My son is studying abroad and my daughter has been married for a long time, so I only see her a few times a year.
When Shen and Old Lady Xu got together and talked about their daughter's marriage, she immediately started nagging and told Old Lady Xu that in the future, their daughter must not marry far away, otherwise, she would be so worried!
After hearing what Shen said, Old Mrs. Xu agreed with it deeply.
She and Old Master Xu had a daughter in their old age. Not to mention that Fubao was already a blessing in their family, even if she was just an ordinary girl, they would have treasured her very much.
Thinking about her daughter marrying far away in the future, Old Mrs. Xu felt very anxious.
"Bao, did you hear what your aunt said?"
Old Mrs. Xu looked at Fubao who was strolling nearby and greeted him.
"Mom, what did you say to Auntie?"
Fubao really didn't pay attention to what her mother said to Shen. She was staring at the Buddha statue in the Big Buddha Temple.
To be exact, just now, she suddenly noticed that the eyes of the largest Buddha statue in the Great Buddha Temple seemed to blink. The Buddha statue was carved from stone, so how could its eyes blink?
Oh my god, my daughter had a fever again this afternoon. It keeps coming back, it drives me crazy!
