"It's not that I have to stay in Miaozhou, I just feel that it's too far away. Since you said so, after I recover from giving birth, I may move to another place."

Gao Yao didn't feel relieved when she heard this. Instead, she became more worried: "How many months have you been pregnant? Even after giving birth, it will take several months to recover. Doesn't that mean you have to live in Miaozhou for at least half a year? There are too many variables. I always feel unsafe."

The person behind him suddenly said, "Actually, as long as Miss Gao doesn't tell anyone, we'll be fine for now."

Gao Yao frowned and looked back sideways. How could the lover that Miss Xu found be of such a character? He didn't look like a good person.

"So even Xueyan can't be told?"

Xu Yixing smiled and said, "It's not that I don't believe her, but his father and brother should all be in Miaozhou. If the Wu family finds out, it will cause unnecessary trouble."

Gao Yao agreed with this statement. She and Wu Xueyan had lived together for a long time. Until now, Xueyan had not lived with his parents. There must be a gap in her heart. "Well, I won't ask you where you live. Anyway, you know where my home address is. If you have any problems, you can send someone to find me."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Gao Yao put on the curtain and opened the handkerchief in her hand. There were some copper coins inside. It seemed that she planned to say that the money was left at home in case she made a mistake. "Then I will leave. If there is any news about Master Xu, I will find a way to tell you."

"it is good."

After Gao Yao left, Xu Yixing also left quickly. This place was very weird and who knew who he would meet next.

Although the small courtyard that Yingwu rented was remote, it was not desolate. There was a small medical clinic not far from the courtyard, which was very convenient. Moreover, the courtyard was very neat, with a large main room with two side rooms, a kitchen and an east toilet, all of which looked freshly cleaned. No wonder the dental clinic charged a high price.

"Ying Wu, do you think Xu Yiwen has been caught now?" After entering the main room, Xu Yixing sat down and moistened his throat before carefully thinking about the news he had just received.

"Probably not. Besides, Master Xu doesn't know what happened to you. Even if he is caught by the Emperor, he won't be able to say anything."

"Tsk, he's such a fool. He insisted on running back! It's a headache..." This time it was a real headache. She pressed her temple hard, with a look of disappointment. "Ying Wu, after the sealing plan you mentioned is launched, will everyone be unable to find each other?"

Ying Wu was delighted when she mentioned the sealing plan. If he had not left in a hurry and misjudged the situation, he would not be so isolated and helpless now. "If the master wants to gather everyone, there is naturally a way. Do you think we can all come to Miaozhou?"

For a moment, Xu Yixing really wanted to get all the shadow guards around him, but wouldn’t that go against his original intention?

So she hesitated for a while, and finally shook her head: "Forget it, Lu Anyuan probably doesn't have a good face for me now. If something happens in the future, you will still be implicated by me. It's better to wait until I give birth to a child. If I decide to leave Daxia, it will be better to take you all away at that time."

"Leave... Daxia?" Ying Wu paused. Is the master so ruthless that he can't even gain a foothold in Miaozhou, and he's already thinking about running to other countries? I have to sigh that the master is a person who has never experienced any hardship. If it were someone else, he wouldn't be able to run away when he was about to ascend the throne.

However, these thoughts were not spoken out. Yingwu stuffed the newly bought bedding into the house and moved to the side room. At the moment, it seemed that the master was still short of a little maid. However, it was not easy to find a maid with a clean background who did not need to be taught the rules and who had to keep her mouth shut.

Xu Yixing didn't think about these things at all. She did it herself because she didn't have a maid. Fortunately, she still had money and was not too poor. It's not that she doesn't know how to make money. On the contrary, she has a good business mind. It's just that she doesn't have so much capital to squander now. She should wait until the child is born before she can think about those things.

Moreover, in Xu Yixing's imagination, she wanted to travel all over the country and become the most extraordinary woman in Daxia. Now, such a small predicament could not stop her.

As time went by, the weather in Miaozhou became colder after August. Gao Yao kept her word, and no one had disturbed Xu Yixing during these days. Yingwu went out every day to prepare the things needed for production, and spent five taels of silver to buy a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl with a straw tag on her head from the roadside to do some personal work for her master.

The red charcoal used for heating alone filled up an entire woodshed, and animal skins, cotton and other things to keep warm were also prepared early. Xu Yixing looked at the piles that filled half the yard and joked that he was worrying too much and was too nervous.

The little girl's name was Junhe, a name that even Xu Yixing thought was very elegant, so he didn't change it. Now she was at the age of being greedy, and she was very similar to Siqin when she was a child, that is, she didn't like to talk much, but just listened to orders and did things blindly, which was very worry-free.

Facts proved that Yingwu's preparations were not superfluous. Just in September, Miaozhou actually had heavy snowfall, and the weather suddenly became extremely cold. Xu Yixing was getting older. He used to be able to hold Junhe's hand and walk around the yard every day at noon, but now he couldn't do that anymore and could only lie in bed every day.

Looking at the sky outside, which was darker than the bottom of a pot, I felt uneasy. "Junhe, is this the weather in Miaozhou? Doesn't it mean that everyone can't even see the sun in winter?"

"Yes, in the twelfth lunar month, the wind sounds like a wolf howling, and some flimsy houses will be blown down directly."

"This..." Xu Yixing began to regret the place she chose. No wonder her father had tried so hard to climb up the Bai family's high branch just to be transferred to the capital. Miaozhou was indeed too hard. "I remember that many houses outside the west of the city were thatched houses. If that's the case, wouldn't those people have nowhere to go?"

Jun He did not identify with those people. While adding charcoal to the charcoal basin, he said indifferently: "Those people are all sinners. Who cares whether they live or die?"

"You can't say that. Many of them were implicated by their families."

"Even if it is true, they used to live a good life. Who wants their family to make mistakes? They deserve it."

Xu Yixing turned his head away. This girl's family was so poor that they had to sell her to feed the others. She must not understand why those powerful people would make mistakes, so even if they suffered, it was their own fault. Hey? Why do I feel like this is talking about me?
