sturdy landlady

Chapter 17
Seeing that her daughter was not in a hurry and looked confident, Mrs. Ye felt relieved.

Although Gu Xiaoxiao desperately wanted to get the Suzaku fruit, she couldn't wait because it was still a long time. She recalled the huge abandoned mine that she saw when she, Yuanxiang and Miaozhu were in the suburbs of Beijing not long ago. , she decided to find some time to go again.

At that place, when they passed by, the Phoenix Dimension reacted a little bit, proving that there was something needed for the space in the waste mine, and it might be very precious ore.

She has already inquired that the people of the Dafeng Dynasty mine gold, silver, copper and iron. They hardly know the rest, and they don't know how to use it. They don't care at all. When many ores are mined, there are other associated mines. , The ancients didn't know it, and she, Gu Xiaoxiao, was not a professional, so naturally she didn't know it, but her own space was spiritual, and it was enough to be able to distinguish what was useful to it.

Moreover, the spirit world space is also a top-quality product. If it doesn't meet something good it likes, it won't react.

For example, the jade ornaments that I come into contact with every day will not change in my own space. When I "stealed" the top-quality jade bracelet and jade pendant from the old lady that day, my chest was slightly hot. It can be seen that there are things that the spirit world needs in the waste mine.

"Yuan Xiang, make some preparations. Let's go out tomorrow and go to the suburbs of Beijing. It's almost early summer, and the weather outside is very good. We can't stay in the house all day." Gu Xiaoxiao smiled at Yuan Xiang road.

Yuan Xiang looked at her lady in surprise when she heard the words. During this period of time, the only time Miss and Madam went out of the mansion was to pay homage to the grave of the late Duke, and to pray for the Lord in the temple, hoping that the spirit of the old man in heaven would be able to Bless them all the best, now that the young lady is actually going out of the house, it can be seen that she is in a much better mood.

"Yes, I'll arrange it now, servant girl!" Yuan Xiang replied with a smile, and went down immediately.

Early the next morning, Gu Xiaoxiao took Yuanxiang and Miaozhu out of the house. At the request of her mother, she also brought a female guard by her mother's side, named Yang Jinniang.

Yang Jinniang was ordered by Gu Weixun to protect Mrs. Ye together with Wang Yueji. It has been five or six years now, and the two are also 21 or [-] years old. Because they practice martial arts all the year round, they look younger than ordinary people, and Mrs. Ye has never Treat them like slaves.

When Gu Xiaoxiao was imprisoned in the mourning hall by the Gu family, Yang Jinniang and Wang Yueji were also very anxious. They both wanted to rush in to save people regardless. It was Ye's dowry nanny who persuaded them. Now that Gu Xiaoxiao is leaving the house, Yang Jinniang was ordered to protect her, so she naturally did her best, sitting on the side of the coachman outside the carriage, looking around, fearing that something might be wrong.

"Sister Jinniang, the sun is out and it's getting hot outside, come in and rest!" Gu Xiaoxiao opened the curtain of the carriage and said to Yang Jinniang outside.

"Thank you, miss, the servants should sit outside so that they can see more clearly." Jinniang turned her head and smiled, she was deeply afraid that the Gu family would plot against her young lady, so naturally she had to be on guard.

"Put on the light gauze hat!" Gu Xiaoxiao personally handed her light gauze hat to Yang Jinniang.

Yang Jinniang didn't refuse this time. Although the women of the Dafeng Dynasty didn't mind showing their faces, she also loved beauty, and she was still very annoyed by being tanned.

"Miss, are you going to Donglingpo in the suburbs of Beijing?" Yang Jinniang asked softly.

"Well, on the way back from the last time I went to worship incense in the temple with my mother, I found that the scenery there was beautiful, so I wanted to see it again." Gu Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

After hearing this, Yang Jinniang had a look of surprise on her face, as did Yuanxiang and Miaozhu in the carriage, because they had never found any good scenery in Donglingpo.

Except for some pine trees, cypress trees, and some wild flowers and weeds, there is nothing to see on the road, and there is an abandoned mine on the other side of Dongling Slope, which is so big that it occupies a large area of ​​Dongling Slope. Extending to the side, the abandoned mine can be seen for a long way.

Because the waste mine is full of stones and almost no grass grows, the dust is a bit big when the wind blows, not only can make people squint their eyes, but sometimes their mouths are full of dust. Many people avoid it, and few people go to the capital. Those who live there, unless they go to Yunlai Temple to offer incense, their master is really different from others, he actually thinks the scenery in that place is good.

However, since it was Gu Xiaoxiao's decision, of course they had no objections and followed obediently.

Donglingpo discovered a large iron mine more than 100 years ago, and it has been mined within a few miles. Long ago, this was the largest iron mine in the Dafeng Dynasty. The court obtained a lot of pig iron from here. It was used to smelt weapons. After several decades of mining, the mine was abandoned. There were some waste stones all around, and nothing could be grown, so it was just abandoned. If people in the capital don’t go to Yunlai Temple will come here.

Gu Xiaoxiao likes that there are few people. When they arrived, there were almost no people on the nearby official roads. After Gu Xiaoxiao asked the driver to park the carriage in a relatively hidden place on a side road, he took Yang Jinniang and Yuan Xiang with them. Into the abandoned mine.

Although the imperial court would not buy or sell abandoned mines, it would not bother to send people to guard them, especially for such mines that had been abandoned for decades and were very close to the capital, no one cared about them at all.

"Miss..." Yang Jinniang couldn't help shouting when she saw that Gu Xiaoxiao had led them into the abandoned mine and kept walking inside.

"You just follow me!" Gu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, but her heart was very uneasy, because the phoenix pattern on her chest gradually warmed up, which is enough to prove that there are people in the mine that the phoenix spirit world needs. Things, in the dark, it seems that there is an invisible force guiding her to go forward, so she completely follows her own feeling to move forward in this big mine.

After walking for almost two quarters of an hour, Gu Xiaoxiao stopped suddenly, staring straight at some waste stones piled up not far away, and the Phoenix Spirit World on his chest clearly conveyed a thought to himself, These waste stones are good things for the spirit world, very, very good things.

"Jinniang, I think this place is nice, clean and comfortable, and I want to be alone for a while, so go back to the carriage and wait for me!" Gu Xiaoxiao turned her head and told Yang Jinniang.

"Miss... you have to stay here for a while!" Yang Jinniang really didn't know what to say, what is there to do here, and her own lady said it was quiet and comfortable, she was lying with her eyes open.

"Well, Jinniang, everyone has their own little secret, you go back and wait for me, don't come here without my order!" Gu Xiaoxiao whispered, with a smile on her face, but her tone was undeniable of.
