sturdy landlady

Chapter 78

"Your Highness..." Seeing that he was silent, Gu Liyan couldn't help but gently shook his arm.

"What did you just say?" the prince asked suddenly.

"A woman in black slapped me in the face..." Gu Liyan said hastily.

"No... You said that Gu Xiaoxiao cast a demon?" The prince frowned.

Gu Liyan was startled when she heard the words, she didn't know why the prince would care about this, but she still whispered: "Yes, the wasteland can't grow anything, but now it has become a fertile field, full of rice, isn't it?" What is the enchantment?"

The prince was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then said loudly: "Stop."

"I don't know what orders does Your Highness have?" Tu Yuan, who was riding outside the carriage, immediately signaled the driver to stop the carriage, and quickly dismounted to the front, asking respectfully.

"Tuyuan, you send people to watch that abandoned Zhuangzi, and find out how Gu Lisheng and the others grew things on that wasteland." The prince ordered with a serious face.

"Yes!" Tu Yuan nodded hastily.

"Your Highness, why should you care about this?" Gu Liyan was very upset when she saw that the prince didn't care about her being beaten, but cared about other things.

"You don't understand." The prince said coldly.

Gu Liyan wanted to say something else, but the prince waved his hand impatiently and said, "Don't talk, let Gu be quiet."

Gu Liyan was startled when she heard the words, she wanted to act like a baby, but the prince closed her eyes, she was speechless for a while, so she had to shut up.

The prince's heart is not at peace.

He had seen that piece of wasteland with his own eyes. It was devoid of aura and nothing could be grown. Why did Gu Xiaoxiao turn that piece of wasteland into fertile land after he went there?
Could it be that the dead Gu Weixun had some secrets that he didn't know, and did Gu Xiaoxiao happen to know this secret?
If this is the case, then Gu Xiaoxiao is still somewhat useful, it seems that he should be paid more attention to.

After staying on the mountain overnight, Gu Xiaoxiao sent Jinniang and Yueji down the mountain to investigate the situation, but she was a little surprised by the result.

"It doesn't matter if the house burns down. Anyway, we can get people to build it. It's just that we have to eat and sleep in the open during this period. Fortunately, our crops are still there, and the five little ponies have also been found." After listening to the two girls' reports, Mrs. Ye smiled. Said.

"In order to prevent fraud, let's stay on the mountain for two more days, and go back after I'm sure they've really left and no one is watching us." Gu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"Okay!" Ye Shi nodded with a smile.

"Miss, I'm afraid you don't have to hide in the cave anymore. Since the house was burned down, the slave will go down the mountain and enter the county town to buy some materials for building the house and hire some people. When the lady is sure that there is no danger here, slave Take someone to rest Zhuangzi well." Tian Butler said with a smile.

"Okay!" Gu Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile, took out a bank note and handed it to Butler Tian.

"One... 1 taels of silver..." Tian Butler looked at the bank note in his hand, feeling his heart beating too fast.

"Well, take 1 taels first, and I will give you another 1 taels later, or even more. There are more and more strange beasts on this mountain. It is still very dangerous for us to live at the foot of the mountain. This time you To build Zhuangzi, you must focus on strength, especially the outer wall, you must buy the best bricks and stones, and build it tall and strong." Gu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

"Yes, miss, please don't worry, miss!" Tian Butler nodded quickly.

"Xiao Xiao, where did you get so many banknotes?" Mrs. Ye looked at her daughter and asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, mother, it wasn't stolen or robbed anyway." Gu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

The four girls, including Jinniang and Yueji, have already guessed it, because there were five Suzaku fruits on the plate yesterday morning, they ate four, and the young lady took away the remaining one, and the young lady probably sold it. , That's why they are so "rich and powerful" now!

After two days of investigation, Gu Xiaoxiao was sure that the prince and others had left the northwest, and even the spies left by the prince were picked out by her and thrown into Fengshan to feed the strange beasts.

Feng Tianze had sent people to protect Gu Xiaoxiao secretly before, but now he didn't let those people stay anymore, because he knew that Gu Xiaoxiao was very skilled in martial arts, and it was useless to keep those people by himself, but only kept two Live in the county to inquire about the news, so if there is any situation with Gu Xiaoxiao, you can send him a letter.

On the fourth day, Gu Xiaoxiao took Ye Shi and others down the mountain. They temporarily lived in a simple house. As for Tian Steward, he had already led his people to start building a new Zhuangzi in full swing.

"This house is too simple, so it's not a problem to live in this way. Mother, let's go to the county town to buy a yard. Anyway, the county town and Zhuangzi are close, so it's convenient to go back and forth. Mother likes to grow her own vegetables, so it's okay." Gu Xiao Said with a small smile.

"Okay!" Mrs. Ye did not refuse. She was born as a lady, and she has been a pampered lady of the country for so many years. In fact, she has never suffered such hardships and suffered such crimes before. Since she can live better, Why do you all have to be miserable?

In the afternoon, Gu Xiaoxiao took everyone to Weiyang County to choose a yard, and finally bought a larger yard with 1 taels of silver, and even got the five snow-winged ponies into the newly bought yard.

……

"Little guy, eat it!" Gu Xiaoxiao took out a spiritual fruit from the spirit world and fed it to the little yellow dog in his arms.

"Even if you never open your eyes and really can't see, I won't abandon you. I will raise you for the rest of your life. Don't worry." Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the little yellow dog who still had his eyes closed, and gently touched his eyes. Looking at its head, he said with a loving face.

It has been 20 days since this little guy was born, but his eyes still haven’t been opened, and he still looks weak. Even though his appetite has increased dramatically, he has to drink a lot of spiritual spring water and eat several spiritual fruits every day. He is still the same as before. There is no difference, and it seems that it has not grown up, and it is still the same size as when it was born.

Gu Xiaoxiao doesn't know what the problem is, but she has been holding it in her arms for 20 days and has developed a relationship. Although the little guy eats so much every day, she feels heartbroken, but she can't bear to have it. It can only be kept like this for a lifetime.

So... She feels the pressure now, and must accumulate resources well.

It's a pity, this is just a thought, the sapling of the first-grade spiritual fruit Jiuxiangguo in her space is slowly growing up, it consumes a lot of water from her spiritual spring every day, and the spiritual energy of the surrounding spiritual fields is also slowly absorbed by it .

Gu Xiaoxiao seriously suspects that before long, the entire spiritual field will turn white, completely losing its spirituality, and it must be fertilized!
But now that she has money, she can't buy good ore. Steward Tian has already gone to inquire, and it will take a long time and a lot of effort to get through the relationship.
