The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 160 Secret Letter
Who is it? Zhao Wensheng, who has been away for a year, finally came back, but this Mr. Pianpian turned out to be a different person, his fair skin turned into a healthy wheat color. He used to look fragile, but now Look a lot healthier.

"No, it's too far away, and it will take some time to come back." Zhao Wensheng said with a smile. If it wasn't because he had been out for too long and was afraid of being discovered by the Zhao family, he really didn't want to come back. He hasn't seen enough.

Yao Yu was rather curious, "You have been away for so long, what have you gained?"

"It's a great harvest." Zhao Wensheng excitedly talked about his experiences along the way. Xie Zhimo listened with gusto and wished that he could travel with him immediately. Yao Yu sat aside and occasionally answered a few words.

Until it got dark, Zhao Wensheng didn't seem to have finished talking about his experience. Looking at Yao Yu's calm face, he asked curiously, "Why aren't you surprised at all?" Even Xie Zhimo showed shock several times If it weren't for Yao Yu's occasional answers, Zhao Wensheng might have thought that Yao Yu wasn't listening to him at all.

Yao Yu didn't answer, but said, "Have you ever thought about going overseas?"

"Overseas?" Zhao Wensheng knew that besides Dayuan, there are many small countries around him, but what does it mean?
Yao Yu said, "It's not the surrounding countries, but the farther places. If I say that the place we live in is a round sphere, you will be shocked."

Xie Zhimo knew that Yao Yu came from thousands of years later, but he still couldn't believe it when he heard the news, but Zhao Wensheng was stunned and said, "You mean?"

"The people overseas look different from us, and they speak differently." Yao Yu explained after finishing speaking, "It's not just that the accent is different, but the entire language system is different, not to mention the customs."

Zhao Wensheng didn't know how to imagine such a place, and he didn't know where to start when he wanted to say something. In the past, he would never have believed Yao Yu's words. However, after walking around Dayuan, he saw it. Too many different customs and customs, too many impossible things, made him seem to want to believe Yao Yu's words all of a sudden.

Zhao Wensheng and Yao Yu's boutique shop did not open, but after Zhao Wensheng found out that Yao Yu opened the checkered shop, he happily moved all his collections here, "Actually, this is very good. If we open a boutique shop, we will have to wait five or five years." In this case, most of the money earned will still be mine.”

Yao Yu laughed, and Zhao Wensheng's mood seemed to have changed a lot, but Zhao Wensheng left another letter and left before staying for three days. When Shopkeeper Nie found Yao Yu, he couldn't laugh or cry.

Yao Yu knew that Zhao Wensheng would set off again, but she didn't expect to leave so early. She also believed that this time when Zhao Wensheng came back, there would be a special wave in Dayuan.

The good news didn’t stop. The news about Zhuzi being admitted to Tongsheng soon spread, but Zhuzi said that he would come to Nuo’er after he was admitted as a scholar. Then they will all be able to come to the capital."

Yao Yu looked at Nuo'er. After all, Nuo'er was still young and needed playmates, "Well, they will all be able to come to the capital next year."

Nuo'er had expectations in her heart, and many people were happy. Xie Zhimo's ticket office finally opened another one in the surrounding area, and she was very happy every day. Because of the ticket number, Xie Zhimo was reused by the emperor, and was once again He was promoted to be the general manager of the Sixth Rank Sect.Although Xie Zhimo and his son did not have high ranks in the imperial court, there were very few of them who had been promoted to several ranks within a few years, and everyone's minds became active again.

And Yao Yu's grid shop is getting more and more prosperous. Although it is not expensive to charge one percent of the rent, there are thousands of grids in the grid shop, and the monthly rent has long exceeded that of hot pot restaurants and roast ducks. This year, Yao Yu's family of three can be said to be proud of the income from the store.

"The snow is getting bigger and bigger." Si Zhu opened the door curtain and came in, adding some charcoal fire into the room.

Xiaoyuzi huddled beside Yao Yu, the weather was too cold, the children were reluctant to go out, even Xie Rui ran in after playing with the snow for a while, really couldn't stand the cold weather, Yao Yu glanced out the window and saw If things go on like this, many places are bound to suffer from snow disasters.

The door curtain was pulled open again, Xie Zhimo walked in, bringing a burst of air-conditioning, Xiaoyouzi got closer to Yao Yu.Xie Zhimo quickly took off the outer cloak, and Si Zhu stepped forward to take the cloak and hang it on the side.

Xie Zhimo rubbed his hands, and walked over after the cold air on his body dissipated.

"What do you want to eat tonight?" Yao Yu asked.

Xie Zhimo said, "Let's go for the hot pot." The weather is getting colder and colder, and the business of many restaurants has cooled down. Only Yao Yu and Zhao Wensheng's hot pot restaurants are different, and they are extremely popular every day, precisely because the hot pot has peppers. Perfect people are hot all over, so they are very hot every day.

The pepper powder has already been transported to northern Xinjiang, and it is said that the soldiers there like it very much.

When Sizhu heard about it, she went down to prepare. Now under the training of Aunt Jiang, Sizhu can also cook some dishes, plus the hot pot is simple, and there are hot pot ingredients left by Yao Yu in the house, so there are many people in Hongyunxuan will do.

"I guess I will go out in a few days." Seeing Si Zhu going out, Xie Zhimo continued.

Yao Yu was a little puzzled, "It's almost the end of the year." Early this morning, Xie Zhimo was recruited into the palace. It was originally an honor to be summoned by the emperor, but Yao Yu's eyes kept jumping, and he always felt that there was something wrong. Things were about to happen, and sure enough, Xie Zhimo said he wanted to go out as soon as he came back.

"En." Xie Zhimo frowned, "There is something wrong in the palace." Recently, there have been reports of disasters in many places, and the emperor is in a particularly bad mood. Under such circumstances, it is especially necessary to appease the masses, but it is more important to send relief supplies there. It's just that although there are many people in the court, no one dares to take this task, because many places are covered by heavy snow, if they go out, they may never return.

Xie Zhimo hadn't planned to take this task, but someone who advised the emperor said that Xie Zhimo had lived in the village before and would be able to accept this task, so the emperor recruited Xie Zhimo to the palace, which was equivalent to Xie Zhimo being forced to accept this task .

"Do you know who came up with the plan?" Yao Yu asked.

Xie Zhimo shook his head, "I can't figure it out either." He is a junior official of the sixth rank, no one can get along with him, and besides, he doesn't offend anyone on weekdays.

"Then are you going?" Yao Yu continued to ask.

Xie Zhi silently replied, "Go."

Yes, the emperor opened his mouth, there is no reason for him to refuse, Yao Yu understood this, and asked whether he would go or not just to find comfort in his heart, "Do you need me to prepare something for you?" Yao Yu asked, going again at this time It seems unnecessary to worry about who came up with the idea, the most important thing right now is to let Xie Zhimo come back safely.

"No need." Xie Zhimo said, "That person is right, even if the mountain is blocked by heavy snow, I can do it."

Yao Yu suddenly remembered that in Shuangshui Village, Xie Zhimo could indeed walk around when the snow was heavy, "Maybe when will we start?"

"It's only been two days." Xie Zhimo said in a voice audible to the two of them, "In addition to delivering supplies, I will also go to Northern Xinjiang to deliver a secret letter to General Yuan."

Yao Yu was taken aback for a moment, then realized that this letter was the key point, "Wait until you come back."

On the day Xie Zhimo left, the snow in the capital had already reached people's knees. Yao Yu looked worriedly at the direction Xie Zhimo left. Even Xie Yuanwu frowned a little sadly. Mrs. Du sighed, "It's almost the end of the new year." , why didn't you talk to the emperor."

Xie Yuanwu shook his head, "I said so." However, it didn't work. Sending capital is a tricky task. Those old guys in the imperial court would shirk it a lot. I don't know why this task suddenly fell on Xie Zhimo.

"Zhimo will come back." Yao Yu said firmly.

Xie Nuo also said from the side, "Yes, Dad will be back."

A month later, the news of Xie Zhimo came to the capital, and the relief supplies were sent to the destination one by one. But what made Yao Yu happy was that Xie Zhimo did a lot of things during this trip, such as the lotus town The person who had testified for Yao Yu's family and was dealt with by Feng Zhixian was now reused, and now he is a teacher under Dong Xin.In addition, Master Li was also transferred to Jiangzhou. After knowing that Master Li was Nuoer's teacher, the big guys respected Master Li very much.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xie Zhimo finally opened a Yuzhi ticket office in Jiangzhou. For Yao Yu, this is much more convenient, and all the money for joining Roast Duck back then has been remitted.

Afterwards, the news about Xie Zhimo was cut off, and Yao Yu knew that it was because Xie Zhimo secretly went to Beijiang to find General Yuan, but Xie Yuanwu and Mrs. Du didn't know it, and they were in a hurry at home every day.

Looking at Mrs. Du's graying hair, Yao Yu wanted to tell Xie Zhimo's whereabouts several times, but finally held back, "Grandmother, don't worry, Zhimo is very familiar with Xuelu."

"But it's been a long time since Zhimo has walked the snowy road." Mrs. Du said, "Plus it's been a few days, and there is no information at all. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, how can I not be in a hurry."

Yao Yu, who was supposed to comfort others, suddenly became nervous. Xie Zhimo hadn't heard from him for a long time. Although he knew what Xie Zhimo was going to do, but in case there was an accident on the road, thinking of this, Yao Yu also became anxious.

Xie Nuo looked at Yao Yu anxiously, and also began to feel uneasy. Little Yuzi and Xie Rui saw the worry on the adults' brows, and then became anxious. Just like that, the entire Xie Mansion was immersed in a state of anxiety.

This anxious state lasted until the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. The news of Xie Zhimo did not come, but the news of the war at the border reached the capital.

This time, Yao Yu was shocked and couldn't sit still anymore.
