The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm
Chapter 155 Missed a Great Gift
Ye Ningxin didn't want to say that she had indeed forgotten, so she took Gu Yin and Song Ruorou's hands and said with a smile: "Ayin, Ruorou, come, let me introduce you, this is my eldest nephew, Ye Jingyu."
"Nephew?" Gu Yin looked at Ye Ningxin in disbelief, "Your brother's son?"
"Yeah, is there something wrong?" Ye Ningxin looked confused.
Song Ruorou also blinked and looked at Gu Yin, her eyes seemed to be saying, is there anything strange about this?
Gu Yin coughed lightly to cover up, waved her hand and said, "Nothing."
By this time Gu Yin had realized that Ye Ningxin's father was also in his fifties. Considering that people of that dynasty generally got married early, it should not be uncommon for his eldest grandson to be older than his youngest daughter.
No wonder they all felt there was nothing unusual.
After thinking this through, Gu Yin quickly greeted Ye Jingyu enthusiastically.
Ye Jingyu bowed and said, "Greetings to the county lady and Miss Song."
"Hey~ Since you are Ningxin's nephew, don't call me County Princess." They are all acquaintances, calling her County Princess would be too unfamiliar.
Ye Jingyu didn't hesitate and smiled brightly: "Then I will be thick-skinned and call you two sisters."
"Okay, okay." You can't just call her aunt like you do to Ye Ningxin. Gu Yin said she's already used to hearing words like sister.
Song Ruorou just did what Gu Yin said and was only responsible for nodding aside.
Ye Jingyu is tall and is actually only three months older than Ye Ningxin. He looks like a sunny and handsome boy.
After a few more pleasantries, Gu Yin looked at the long line of carriages that had stopped behind them and asked suspiciously:
"They...all came with you?"
"Haha... Yeah..." Speaking of this, Ye Ning felt a little embarrassed and smiled unnaturally, "It was all arranged by my father. He said that if I want to come here, I have to agree to his conditions..."
After saying that, Ye Ningxin glanced at Gu Yin cautiously again.
Gu Yin looked at her little action and said with a smile: "Look at your guilty look, tell me, what did you do behind my back?"
Ye Ningxin put her two index fingers together and looked up at Gu Yin quietly: "When I went back, didn't you say that if my father didn't let me out, I could use it as an excuse to go to Ning County to look for new tools?..."
"That's true..." Song Ruorou nodded. It was she who came up with the idea.
"Then what? It doesn't take so many people to gather information, right?" Gu Yin stood on tiptoe again to take a look at the long convoy, estimating that there were seven or eight carriages.
"Sister Gu, why don't you let me explain this matter?" Ye Jingyu cupped his hands. His aunt and the county lord were good friends. In her eyes, this kind of thing might be a disguised form of blackmailing a friend, but he would not have such concerns.
Gu Yin and the others looked at him, waiting for what to say next.
The expression on Ye Jingyu's face became sincere: "Jingyu once heard that there was a county lady in Ning County who loved the people and always cared for them. Not only did she invent various advanced tools, but she also had a good understanding of planting techniques."
"Jingyu admires this very much and has been looking for opportunities to seek advice from Sister Gu. If he can learn even a little bit, it will give the people of Nanshui County more opportunities to make a living, and Nanshui County will also be able to develop."
"So, after learning that my aunt and Sister Gu have a special relationship, and especially knowing that Sister Gu doesn't mind my aunt revealing information to us, Jingyu shamelessly brought all kinds of skilled craftsmen here, just to ask Sister Gu to give them some pointers."
Ye Jingyu kept a low profile and looked very calm, not even mentioning his grandfather's tough attitude towards Ye Ningxin.
"So... the people in the carriage behind are all the technicians you brought with you?" This really surprised Gu Yin.
"Yes, and some servants and belongings."
"How long do you want them to stay in Ning County?" Gu Yin asked, rolling his eyes.
"What do you think, Sister Gu?" Ye Jingyu kicked the ball back.
Gu Yin glanced at him. He didn't look like a sunny boy at all. He was just a black sesame-filled glutinous rice dumpling.
He was full of flattering words, but as the eldest grandson of the county magistrate, he was able to humble himself in order to achieve his goals.
He is flexible and adaptable at a young age, and Gu Yin has a good impression of him.
"How about lending them to me for two years? During these two years, I can guarantee that they will participate in various projects and teach them everything I know. But how much they can learn depends on their own abilities." In two years, Gu Yin estimated that they would be able to learn most of it in one year, and the remaining year would be considered as the interest she collected.
Moreover, two years later, her father's term of office would expire in just a few months. Based on her father's achievements, promotion was basically a foregone conclusion.
Such an arrangement can not only solve their current talent shortage problem, but also vigorously build Ning County and develop the economy. Isn't it a great idea to kill two birds with one stone?
"Thank you, Sister Gu, for your support!" Ye Jingyu thanked her sincerely and gave her all he knew. Not to mention two years, even another three to five years would not be out of the question.
In this era when everyone is eager to pass down their skills as heirlooms, Gu Yin's ability to pass on his skills to others is even more precious.
"You're welcome. We just take what we need." Various techniques for making farm tools and growing crops will be publicized sooner or later, so Gu Yin doesn't really care.
What can really make her a lot of money are raw materials, such as oil and rapeseed. However, Gu Yin will not easily give them out in the short term.
"Ayin...you are so nice..." Ye Ningxin's eyes were red with emotion. Ayin must have agreed to Jingyu so easily because of her.
Gu Yin pinched her smooth face: "Okay, it has nothing to do with you. Where are you going to stay this time? Do you have any plans?"
"Yes, yes, I have asked the housekeeper to come and buy the house in advance." Ye Ningxin said after sniffing.
"Then let's go, we'll go help you clean up."
"It's not good to trouble you so much..." Ye Ningxin felt embarrassed.
Song Ruorou said directly: "What kind of trouble is it? Is it necessary for us to care about this in our friendship?"
Gu Yin agreed: "That's right!"
After saying that, the two of them carried Ye Ningxin onto their carriage and sent her back together.
Ye Jingyu was looking at them from behind, still a little bit unbelievable. He didn't expect that he had already finished the things his grandfather had asked him to do before he even entered the city gate, and he even didn't take out the things he had prepared in advance...
However, this also indirectly shows that the county princess is a person who values friendship.
However, Ye Ningxin knew nothing about the gift. Only Ye Jingyu and his grandfather knew about it.
If Gu Yin knew that she had missed a great gift, I wonder how she would feel...
