Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Winter nights always come early. Before the sky is shrouded in the gradually spreading darkness, the carriages rush out of the city.

Twenty miles is neither far nor short. No matter how hard the carriage tried, it could not outrun the sky and returned to the village under the light of a lantern.

At the entrance of Gujiazhuang village, not only is the workshop brightly lit, but the light in front of the gate is even brighter because of the lanterns hanging.

According to the rules, when you get here, you can only enter the village after stopping for inspection, especially after dark, but there are special exceptions.

The first carriage slowly slowed down. Before the carriage stopped, the guard on duty came out from the gatehouse and quickly exchanged signals with the coachman.

——The second young master is back.

Look, Gu Wenxuan even lifted the curtain to scan his face, confirming that it was the second young master Gu Wenxuan who came back, so there was no need to even look at the carriage behind.

Gu Wenyu, who had not been home for two months, was surprised to see this. When the wheels of the carriage started rolling again, he couldn't help but ask Zhou Changping opposite him.

"When did this place have more houses, more gatekeepers, and patrols?"

Zhou Changping was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "Don't you know there are two more workshops here? That's right, you and Li Ge'er have been out for some time and haven't come back.

It was around the time when you and Li Ge'er went to the academy, when the building construction here just started, right? San Ya moved the oil mill and tofu shop here last month. "

Gu Wenyu subconsciously looked back. Everyone was sitting in the carriage and it was difficult to see outside. He couldn't help but laugh at his own silly behavior.

"It's too dark to see clearly, but I can come here tomorrow when I have time. Not only the village entrance, but also the market at the opposite intersection is very lively now.

Nowadays, the surrounding villages rarely go to the town to attend the market, but even the villages in the west of the town have recently begun to like to buy New Year goods here."

Doesn't that mean that everyone in the village will most likely get their share of the money they raised by the end of the year? Gu Wenyu shook his head in disbelief.

Then he realized that Zhou Changping had just said that San Ya had moved the oil mill and tofu shop there last month, so this was not surprising.

Buying tofu and oil from the workshop won’t be more expensive than buying them from stalls and shops in town, but didn’t Liu Lang’s wife even sell tofu loose before?

Could it be that "the oil and tofu are not profitable, so Sixth Brother's wife simply took these two out and handed them over to some relative to manage like the oil paper processing workshop?"

Zhou Changping didn't know how to respond for a moment. With the ability of his niece San Ya, how could she not make money? It was even more impossible for her not to make money and then hand it over to relatives to manage.

Who do you think San Ya is?

"Not very clear." Zhou Changping thought about it and decided that there were some things that his uncle could not decide, so he decided to let Gu Wenyu go back and find his family to solve the mystery.

His niece has already made great efforts to promote the old Gu family and has done a lot for the village. Isn't that good? Justice is in the hearts of the people, so why should he, as her uncle, say more?

Gu Wenyu didn't know that Zhou Changping mistakenly thought that he thought his niece was a businessman, that businessmen were profit-oriented and had bad character, so he was unwilling to speak.

He was just about to ask again, since Zhou Sanya moved the oil mill and tofu shop there, whether the original soap business was also moved there.

Sudden.

The carriage slowed down again.

At the same time, Gu Wenxuan's voice was heard.

——Tell them not to rush home, since they were already here, and they could go back later without worrying about the bad roads, and invite them to sit at home for a while before going back. It was empty and dark, and even though Gu Wenxuan didn't shout very loudly, he could still hear it clearly, and Gu Wenyu couldn't help but laugh.

"Scream louder. Even Wangbei Village can hear it. No, our family is waiting for us. We'll go back first." Zhou Changping controlled his voice and shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Wenxuan did not bother to be polite with them. He said "see you later" and lowered the curtain without waiting for the other carriage to turn to the right.

crossroads.

Going straight ahead leads to the manor, to the left is the Ma family, and to the right is Qinghe Village. The coachmen are all experienced, so needless to say, they go their separate ways.

Not to mention the carriage going to the right and entering the end of Qinghe Village, the driver first sent Zhou Changping home, and then sent Gu Wenyu, who came down to pay a visit to Mr. Zhou, home.

On a carriage going straight ahead, Gu Wenxuan began to tease Dajiang, "Guess where they are in our family right now, the prize is up to you."

"Who are they referring to? Everyone, or just our two families? You have to explain clearly, for example, where is my third sister now?
I don't need to guess, you're doomed. At this hour, there are guests at home, and my third sister is definitely not in your West Courtyard. Do you want to take a gamble?"

"..." What a mistake. I was actually confused. Why did I beat around the bush? Gu Wenxuan held his forehead and said, "I was too excited. Just pretend I didn't say anything."

Da Jiang couldn't help but nodded, "Okay, I'll just pretend you didn't say anything. Brother-in-law, Wen Yu actually still doesn't understand you. How can you be called thick-skinned?"

It's like a day without seeing you feels like a long time. I haven't seen my third sister for a few autumns, and you are so excited that you can't even speak clearly—"

Gu Wenxuan interrupted quickly, "You bastard, you are making fun of your brother-in-law. Wait until you have a wife, and then you will see if you can keep your mouth shut!"

"We're here." Dajiang quickly changed the subject. He felt embarrassed to keep talking about his wife, "Are we going directly to the outer courtyard by carriage?

Do you want to tell the front which way to go in? If my parents are here at this hour, they will definitely be in the main courtyard, not the west courtyard. "

Gu Wenxuan also thought so. His family usually started eating late, and since there were guests at home, there would definitely be a snack in the afternoon.

At this time, it should not be until six o'clock in the evening, which is almost the time when the family is having dinner, so the dining place naturally cannot be in the East and West Courtyards.

It’s just that my brother-in-law’s skill in changing the subject was too poor. There was no need for him to tell him which way the carriage should enter from. Zhiming ran to the front of the carriage first.

Listen.

Did you hear that?

As soon as he turned into the manor, Zhiming shouted to the guard at the gate.

When Dajiang was patted on the shoulder by Gu Wenxuan, he heard voices from outside. He couldn't help but smile, "Sure enough, it's just as I expected."

"What did you expect?"

"Everyone is in the main courtyard." Dajiang said in a surprised tone, "Can't you hear it? Someone outside said that my parents are here too.

I knew that Third Brother was here. Not to mention Xiao He, my parents wouldn't be here. But Doctor Dong, brother-in-law, why is he so easy to talk to today?"

Indeed, even though his eldest brother is Dr. Dong’s last disciple, nine times out of ten when people come to his house, he won’t eat and will leave, and even his father can’t stop him.

There was obviously a guest at his house tonight, and he was tricked into coming here to check his wife's pulse. With this weird old man's temper, how could he be here since he came in the afternoon? (End of this chapter)
