Ming Jia has been busy since arriving in Dianzhou, and she never noticed that Uncle Shen Qi hadn't arrived yet this year.

"Uncle Liu, you came all the way from Xuzhou, have you heard about any major events in the capital?"

Mingjia's thoughts are now in the backyard and Mr. Ye. She doesn't pay attention to things outside Dianzhou at all, and she doesn't have many channels for news.

"It's a problem that the news is so limited! When I get rich, I will open Shiqulou in every city in Daliang!"

Mingjia drew a pie for herself in her mind. She didn't care whether she could finish it or not, but she set the flag first.

Da Liu thought about it for a long time, but he didn't hear anything big happened, so he had no choice but to shake his head.

No one knows whether the person Li Hansheng sent to Dianzhou this year will be Shen Qi, and it is impossible to know which route the person will take to Dianzhou.

"Uncle Liu, you go ahead and do your work first! I'll write a letter to Uncle Li to ask! Judging from the current situation, we can't go and greet the people!"

"Okay! If the young master needs me for something, just ask someone to pass the message to the back alley."

On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, I neither received a reply from Master Chuanzhou nor waited for the New Year gift sent by Li Hansheng from the capital.

Today was the day when Ye Liangsheng came to check Dong's pulse. Mingjia didn't leave after breakfast and accompanied Dong to wait for Mr. Ye's arrival.

"Judging from Mrs. Xiao's pulse, she won't give birth in the next two days, but we still need to be more careful and don't leave anyone."

After hearing what Mr. Ye said, Mingjia breathed a sigh of relief. The closer it got to Dong's due date, the more nervous Mingjia became.

Dong's mood was a little complicated, a little disappointed, but also a little lucky.

"Mom, don't worry! Everything at home is ready!"

Dong looked at her daughter, who was even more nervous than herself, and stretched out her hand to gently pull Mingjia to her side.

"You take good care of your family, and you prepared the delivery room and midwife in advance. I have nothing to worry about."

"Your birthday will be in two days. I had thought before that I might have the same birthday as you."

"It's almost the Chinese New Year, but your dad is already busy! It's all up to you to take care of all these things at home. If I start two days later, maybe your dad can finish it!"

Mingjia felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She couldn't tell her mother that it was her father's plan that her father was so busy recently.

"Mom, I can handle these things very easily~! It's okay, just relax and raise the baby!"

Mingjia deliberately said it very casually. For the Xiao family, Dong and the child in her belly are the biggest.

Mingjia personally escorted Ye Liangsheng out of the government office, and Mr. Ye's carriage was parked in the alley next to him.

"Chuanwu just learned to drive from Uncle Cheng some time ago, and now he can work as a driver for Mr. Ye!"

Mingjia said in surprise when she saw Chuanwu waiting beside the carriage dressed as a coachman.

Chuanwu didn't expect to see Master Mingjia again, so he unconsciously bowed to Mingjia and saluted, which was a etiquette he secretly learned.

"Chuanwu has met the young master, and I would like to thank Mr. Ye for trusting me!"

Mingjia did not respond to Chuan Wu's words, but held Ye Liangsheng's arm and sent Ye Liangsheng to the carriage.

As soon as Ye Liangsheng entered the carriage, Mingjia turned to look at Chuanwu with a cold face.

"Come here, I have something to tell you!"

Mingjia took Chuanwu to a place farther away from the carriage. Mingjia stopped and turned to look at Chuanwu.

Chuanwu was a little panicked. He could feel Master Mingjia's anger, so did he offend Master Mingjia?

"Chuanwu, I put a lot of effort into helping you escape from slavery, sending you to study, literacy, and medical skills. I have many hopes for the future of you guys!"

Chuan Wu was stunned on the spot. He knew that he was not a slave, but...

"You are learning medical skills from Mr. Ye. Even if Mr. Ye doesn't accept you as his disciple, you still have a half-teacher relationship. There is nothing wrong with you serving Mr. Ye when traveling!"

"But you are not a servant of my Xiao family. You don't need to call me young master, nor do you need to treat me with the courtesy of a servant."

"You are one year older than me. If I call you by name, you can also call me by my name!"

"I don't want to see such courtesy from you!"

"Chuanwu, tell them when you go back. Just try your best to learn your skills. I hope you can all become famous doctors!"

"Of course, a master of growing medicinal herbs can also do it!"

When Mingjia said this, his tone was very serious, but the last sentence was a little more playful.

Chuanwu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. Chuanwu suddenly raised his head and looked at Mingjia, his eyes bright and alert.

"Mingjia?"

"Ok!"

"Mingjia, do you have many expectations for my future?"

"Of course! I don't have the talent to study medicine. In terms of hobbies, I am only interested in drugs. My identity is destined not to take this path."

When Mingjia mentioned this, she still felt a little regretful. After all, Mr. Ye had asked her if she wanted to study medicine.

Of course, even if Mingjia doesn't have this status, Mingjia is not someone who can calm down and study medical skills.

Chuanwu has experienced many hardships since he was a child, and his mind is far more mature than his peers, otherwise Mingjia would not tell Chuanwu this.

"So, I can call you Mingjia, or I can call you Master Mingjia like everyone else, but I can't call you Master like the servants of the Xiao family, right?"

"what?"

Ming Jia was suddenly confused by Chuanwu's words. After thinking for a while, he nodded hesitantly.

"Okay! Mingjia. I don't have any talent in medical skills, but Mr. Ye said that I still have some understanding of poisons, and I will study hard."

"Can Mingjia find a gentleman for us? In addition to reading and literacy, we also need to learn some etiquette."

"Fang Hai, Kong Qing, and Tian Dong all learned medical skills well, and Long Ya and Agarwood are already good at growing medicinal herbs!"

"What Mingjia said today, I will tell them when I get back!"

Mingjia nodded, and his thoughts stopped on choosing a gentleman for the Sichuan and Wuhan people.

When Mingjia came to his senses, Chuanwu had already returned to the carriage, jumped on the carriage and was about to drive away with a whip.

"After the new year, a gentleman will come over to teach!"

Mingjia said to Chuan Wu in a deep voice.

Chuanwu would give Mingjia a big smile and then drive away.

Mingjia went out alone to see Mr. Ye off. If Mrs. Yan followed, she might have noticed that Chuanwu changed a bit strangely after Mingjia and Chuanwu talked.

When Mingjia returned to the main courtyard, she saw her mother and Mrs. Shui chatting. It seemed that Mrs. Shui was trying to dissuade her mother from doing something.

"Mom, I'm back. What are you talking about?"

When Mrs. Dong saw Mingjia coming back, she quickly stopped talking and turned to look at Mingjia.

"We didn't talk about anything, it was just small talk!"

"Master, my wife said she won't give birth in the next few days. Your birthday will be in two days, and she wants to make a table for you."

In this matter, Mrs. Shui clearly chose to betray her master.

Mingjia... I really can't bear it anymore and I must ask!
