Chapter 142: News after the Dragon Boat Festival
After becoming a disciple, Mo Shougui's attitude softened. He greeted Wen Daozhi and told Yu Sanlang that he would stay for a while and would ask his junior fellow apprentice to send gifts over later.
Yu Sanlang readily agreed and secretly decided to take part in a class while he was not busy these few days.
When he was learning to set traps from Master Wu, Master Wu once said that traps belong to the field of engineering, and that this field was first mentioned by Lu Ban and Mohist school.
The banquet started, and Master Shang saw the fruits and crabs on the table, and he was envious and jealous. "Brother Wen, you are very generous. It seems that your brother has a good way to make money and you two have a deep brotherly love."
Shang Shi's family had only one son for five generations. The only son preferred martial arts to literature, so he secretly went through the Tan family's connections and went to join the army in the northwest. He was not good at making a living, so he closed up his business and lived by collecting rent.
"Alas, I am not as good as your family, Brother Shang, who owns half of the city's rent. I can only live on your charity." Wen Daozhi retorted sarcastically. Who are you being sarcastic about? Your Shang family owns tens of thousands of acres of land in half of the city, and you have the nerve to say that.
Tens of thousands of acres of land?! Yu Hongdou took a breath, and looked at Master Shang with a different look.
Mo Shougui looked at his newly accepted disciple, whose eyes were rolling around, and felt like laughing.
He discovered that this child was really clever and mischievous. No wonder his junior fellow apprentice had lured him here again and again. He probably wanted to let him be influenced by this lively character. Now he really wanted to ridicule the two opposite him.
"Hongdou, Master is not as good as your teacher Wen's brothers who make money, nor is he as good as your uncle Shang's family who owns tens of thousands of acres of land. He also has a few shops. When you get married, Master will give them all to you."
Mo Shougui seemed to be explaining his family background to his young apprentice in a serious manner, but the look in his eyes when he glanced at the person opposite him was full of contempt.
Monk Wen Daozhi said "Puh" at the same time, picked up the wine glass and put aside their past grudges.
Yu Hongdou was amused by the three old naughty boys and she did not forget to brag about her filial piety: "Hey, teacher, Uncle Shang, just wait and see. In the future, I will build a large farm with tens of thousands of acres of land for you to live in when you retire."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table laughed. Mo Shougui shook his head, but raised his glass to toast his junior brother.
The meal was a great success. Xu and Aunt Qian from the backyard hurriedly cleaned up the guest room next to Wen Daozhi. She was secretly thankful that she had bought cotton quilts and other things when she went to the city last time, otherwise it would be impolite.
Even so, the yard was still empty. Xu made a list in her mind, thinking that she would have to go to the city tomorrow, so it would be best to buy some ready-made bedding, curtains, etc., and also the furniture...
Just thinking about it, Xu felt like the burden was heavy. The money was spent so quickly. If her husband hadn't given her some money when he came back this time, the family's savings would have been depleted.
Yet she also felt happy, after all, few women could escape the joy of shopping.
Because there were too many shrimps and crabs, which were cold and could not be eaten too much at one time, Yu Hongdou made the decision on behalf of her parents. She gave half a basket to Duan Zhuangtou and the servants, and kept a few for Aunt Qian and Qian Sanmei and Qian Simei.
As for the remaining crabs, Aunt Qian helped to remove the meat and yellow, boiled them with lard, and put them into a jar and hung it in the well to be used as filling for making dumplings early the next morning.
As for the shrimps, the third and fourth sisters were asked to dry them in the oven and then hang them up to be used for cooking noodles and porridge later.
The rest are dried scallops, dried shrimps, dried sea cucumbers, dried abalone, and half a truck of dried kelp.
All of these can be kept, but they need to be soaked before eating. Yu Hongdou asked someone to pick out a few and prepared to send them back to her grandparents, uncle and others.
"Aunt Qian, soak this hay-like kelp in water for a while, cut it into strips and blanch it until soft, then marinate it with sweet and sour soy sauce and salt, along with garlic slices overnight, and eat it as a side dish tomorrow morning."
Yu Hongdou gave Aunt Qian the final order, and when she saw that everything had been dealt with, she made some apricot honey tea and sent it to the two teachers' courtyards.
Mo Shougui's servant didn't come with him for the time being, so Yu Hongdou asked Cai Fu's younger brother Cai Gui to look after him, in case the teacher woke up at night and couldn't find anyone.
After everything was arranged, Yu Hongdou wiped the sweat from her forehead and ran back to the backyard.
"Oh, our Hongdou has worked so hard." Yu Song felt distressed and sad. His sister had grown up and was very good at taking care of others, but the person being taken care of was not him.
"Thank you for your hard work, brother. I haven't seen you for a long time." Yu Hongdou came over and sat next to her brother. She looked Yu Song up and down. Seeing that his eyes were dark but his face was still good, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm fine, I just haven't slept enough lately because I've been keeping a close eye on people." Yu Song said this not only to comfort his sister, but also to his parents.
"Then what did Liu Jiaoniang say?" This was the first time that Yu Sanlang had spoken to his son since Hongdou was rescued. He hated Liu Jiaoniang, the culprit, so much.
"She was a little crazy after she woke up, but she finally found out the answer." Yu Song looked outside the door out of habit, and when he saw the yard, he remembered that he was on his own farm.
"After Liu Jiaoniang was arrested, we spread the word to Huang Jincheng and Hua, saying that Liu Jiaoniang and her men disappeared in the mountains." Yu Song couldn't help but frown when he mentioned Huang Jincheng.
"The people behind the Golden City are not simple. According to analysis by my teacher and senior brother, there is a high possibility that there is foreign support behind it."
“The reason why Huangjincheng and Hua family value Liu Jiaoniang is because she is the last royal family member of Xiangsai country.
According to Liu Jiaoniang, the first king of Xiangsai came from the Buddhist country and carried with him a mustard seed filled with magical flower seeds and flower dew. So as soon as the flower seeds landed on the ground, they would take root and spread, and the flower dew would immediately revive dying plants. "
When Yu Song said this, his face was full of doubt, but he continued:
"It is said that only the blood of the direct descendants of the Hua family can enter the Buddhist country, so Huang Jincheng and the Hua family guarded Liu Jiaoniang so closely."
When they heard the word Buddhist country, Yu Sanlang and his daughter looked at each other.
Yu Song felt the gazes of his father and sister and couldn't help but cast a question mark over them.
Yu Sanlang then told his son about the secret of Xiangsai Kingdom as mentioned in the letter of the royal family member found in the mountains, and that the place where Cao Yun, the ancestor of the Cao family, and Xu Maoling conducted alchemy experiments was suspected to be a Sumeru mustard seed.
Yu Songyu was speechless for a long time, looking at his father in disbelief to confirm again. When his father nodded seriously, he said doubtfully: "It's really true?"
He looked at his father, then looked outside the door, and muttered quietly, "I stared at my aunt, Tian Manman, twice before, and found that she disappeared and reappeared again. At that time, I thought I was dazzled."
"!!" The exclamation mark in Yu Hongdou's eyes was about to pop out.
Having read the original novel and the TV series, she is now unsure if what she is reading is the authentic version. When did the author arrange a cheat code for the heroine? !
Could it be that because there are too many people traveling through time, God is afraid that the protagonist's halo will be annihilated, so he gives compensation?
