I turned the cold palace into a paradise

In the evening, everyone sat around the table where they had their birthday dinner in the morning, feeling a little dazed for a moment. In just one afternoon, the village had a new owner.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, especially the women and children, as it was the most satisfying meal they had ever had. Yun Yue said that she would follow this standard for every meal in the future, as she still had a lot of food in her space. Everyone said no, as they also wanted to eat like this every day, but they were afraid that the village would go bankrupt. Young Master Yue was so kind, and they wanted to follow her.

Yunyue said it was okay, as everyone would have the strength to work only after they were full. When the children heard that they could eat the rice every day, they forgot how scared they were of Yunyue and the others in the afternoon, and they all looked at Yunyue with admiration.

Jiang Yilai, who was still hungry, cried and said he was willing to pay 50,000 taels to redeem his life. Yun Yue sent someone to take the token to Jiang's house to get the money.

Afterwards, Yunyue asked everyone to go to bed early and start working tomorrow.

Everyone obediently returned to their own bunk beds.

Yunyue temporarily arranged the women in Xilou to stay in the rooms originally reserved for guests. Yunyue couldn't understand why a bandit's den would have a guest room? Those who could live there were really bold.

Liu Xiaoyong took his wife and children to their residence. His wife Lanhua held a silver ingot in each hand and knocked on the coins loudly.

"Boss, it's silver!" Lanhua smiled foolishly, her eyes never leaving the silver in her hand.

"Mom! Mom! Let me touch it, let me touch it too!" Liu Xiaoyong's son Liu Chengcai pulled Lanhua's sleeve and wanted to extort money from her.

Lanhua raised her arm and said impatiently, "Go away, kid, what are you playing with? What if you drop it?"

Liu Chengcai curled his lips. His mother used to love him the most, but now she only cares about money and doesn’t even look at him anymore.

Liu Xiaoyong picked up his son and put him on his shoulders. He smiled and said to his wife, "You've been saying this all along."

"How can I not be happy? Two taels of silver! You have been in this mountain stronghold for half a year, and the boss didn't even give you two taels." Lanhua curled her lips. He was so stingy and unkind. He should be killed!

Seeing Fang Xiaoyong remained silent, he asked again: "Do you think what Master Yue said is true? Will you get two taels of silver every month in the future?"

"Well, I think it's true. Look, you are holding it now, aren't you?" Liu Xiaoyong thought that it was because he served the dishes made by Master Yue to Fang Tianhu that allowed him to stay in the village. In any case, he had made a contribution, right?

"Dad, Mom, I like Brother Yue, he's a good man. He keeps me fed!" Liu Chengcai shouted while sitting on Fang Xiaoyong's shoulders, causing the people walking in front to nod their heads.

"Yes! Master Yue is a good man! Boss, you have to follow Master Yue and do your job well!"

"Okay! Make more money and buy new clothes for you and your mother!"

"Wow~ new clothes! Dad! I also want to eat candied haws! Mom wants a hair ornament!"

"Okay! Buy it! Buy them all! Hahahahaha!"

……

But there was crying from Yunyue's side.

At this time, Concubine Wang and others had already been picked up.

"Sister Yu, Shushu." Huang Jiaojiao cried and hugged Yu Xiyun. She also reached out and pulled Ouyang Shu over. Princess Dowager Liu Lu and others also surrounded them. Seeing the two people's faces full of injuries, tears welled up in their eyes, and they didn't dare to ask anything. They just carefully checked whether they had other injuries.

Ouyang Shu knew what everyone was worried about. Seeing that everyone was being cautious, she told them what had happened in the past few days to avoid making everyone worry.

Yun Yue had been busy dealing with the people from the mountain village during the day and had no time to ask. But when he heard Yu Xiyun's story, he broke out in a cold sweat and wished he could drag Niu Lao San back and cut him into pieces!

Ouyang Shu smiled and comforted everyone: "We are fine."

"Ayue, thanks to Lingyao, if it weren't for her, we would have..." Yu Xiyun bit her lower lip, and there was still fear in her eyes when she thought of that day.

Huang Jiaojiao hugged Yu Xiyun tightly, as if to give her courage.

"Yes. I will treat her well."

Seeing that everyone was in a better mood, Xiaohua, who had been sitting silently beside them, asked cautiously: "Brother, have you found my mother?"

Seeing her expectant eyes, Yun Yue didn't know how to start, so she took out the hairpin from her bosom and told her the truth cruelly: "Xiao Hua, your mother..."

"My mother is dead, right?" Xiaohua's big eyes were filled with tears.

Seeing Yunyue nod, Xiaohua's tears welled up instantly. She took the flower and covered her chest with it, crying bitterly: "Daddy is gone, mommy is gone too... wuwuwu." She didn't understand. Originally, the family of three went to the town happily to buy things for mommy's birthday, how could it turn out like this...

The Queen Mother hugged her in her arms with a look of heartache. What a sin! What a sin!

Anle looked at Xiaohua with tears streaming down her face and felt a lump in her throat. She thought of her absent elder brother and how she almost lost her mother. She felt the same way and thought Xiaohua was too pitiful. She walked over and held her hand: "Xiaohua, my mother is your mother from now on. I am older than you, so I will be your sister and then you will have a family." Xiaohua also saved two aunts, so her mother should not have any objection if she gave her some of her mother's love. She was already nine years old and she knew what would have happened if Ouyang Shu and the others were not rescued.

Yu Xiyun would make her a fragrant purse, and she would give her a massage when she felt carriage sick. Ouyang Shu would tell her many stories and share some interesting books with her. She liked the happy days they were having together, so she was also grateful to Xiaohua.

Liu Lu was a little surprised, then smiled with satisfaction. Anle had grown up...

Anle was tired of accompanying Xiaohua in crying, so Yunyue asked someone to take them both to rest first.

Only then did Concubine Wang wipe her eyes and asked Yunyue: "Yue'er, Yinyi said that you took over this bandit den and that group of bandits. Isn't this nonsense?"

Banana Cherry asked anxiously, "Miss, aren't we going to the frontier?"

Yunyue signaled everyone not to rush, and asked Siyin, who was holding Fubao, to show the letters to everyone. Siyin reluctantly gave Fubao to Yinyi and took out four letters from her arms. One was from Concubine Wang, one was from Anle, and the remaining two were from Yunyue. Yunyue had already read the letters.

He explained, "This is a letter from Brother Xiao's people, saying that there is a serious civil unrest in Liangzhou and many cities have been controlled by others. So it is not suitable to go to the border now."

"Originally, I took everyone to the border because I wanted us to find a beautiful place with clear water and mountains to build a Nirvana Pavilion. Now we have found it. Don't you think that Tiger Roar Mountain is good in terms of both scenery and geographical location?"

When Concubine Wang and others went up the mountain, it had already darkened. They were so anxious that they didn't pay much attention to the scenery along the way.

Li Wanhua's eyes lit up: "Great! It's really great! It's easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's a place that must be fought for by military strategists!"

Yinyi pinched Fubao's arm and nodded in agreement.

"So I guess we can just stay here for the time being?"

Naturally, everyone had no objection. As long as they could be together, they could go anywhere.

"As for those bandits, they are also civilians who were forced to take up arms due to natural disasters and man-made calamities. It would be too lonely for just a few of us to be in such a large village."

After reading Xiao Yinmo's letter, Concubine Wang nodded and said, "Yue'er is right. This will be our home from now on."

Everyone passed it unanimously.

"By the way, who is Brother Xiao?" Huang Jiaojiao asked with a sly smile.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, you know Brother Xiao. He is the Crown Prince Xiao Yinmo who has been dead for a year." Anyway, the whole world knows about it now, so Yunyue didn't hide it anymore.
