Shen Jinyao didn't expect that Shen Tingyao was so thoughtful.

She asked back, "What's the matter?"

Shen Tingyao: "It's about you going to the county town tomorrow. Are you not planning to take me with you?"

Shen Jinyao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she had finally become smart.

She quipped, "How do you know?"

Shen Tingyao said dissatisfiedly: "I don't care, I'll go wherever you go tomorrow."

Shen Jinyao smiled and didn't care.

It's a bit crowded when sleeping at night.

But it was only in the corner, where Shen Jinyao and Shen Tingyao were squeezed.

……

The next day, Shen Jinyao decided to set off as soon as she returned from the county town.

At dawn, Shen Jinyao said she wanted to go into the city without eating in order to save time.

As usual, several children from the Shen family went with them.

When leaving the village, Shen Jinyao saw Gou Wa again.

He glanced at her first, then waved to Le Yao.

Le Yao told him, "We are going to the county town. Come see me tomorrow."

Shen Jinyao listened carefully and actually heard Gou Wa say yes.

No matter what Gou Wa's purpose was in following them, it would be better to be cautious.

Shen Jinyao’s main task today is to find a reliable doctor.

Secondly, she had to buy the books that her younger brothers and sisters wanted.

Last night, she asked Zhixue to make a list of books, and she said that she wanted to buy the books according to the list.

Actually, it just means taking out the books in the space.

As for the things she needed on the road, they were actually all in the space.

She went out today mainly to buy everything the Shen family needed.

When it comes to purchasing, once you have experience you will know what to do.

They finished their shopping quickly, and Shen Jinyao found another female doctor.

When she found out she was pregnant, it would be better for her to see a female doctor.

At least the female doctor last time was very patient and empathetic.

After the doctor took the old lady's pulse and prescribed medicine, Shen Jinyao went to take the old lady away.

Old lady: "Okay, they are all out, what's the hurry?"

Shen Jinyao said, "Grandma, do you remember the Dingcheng Escort Agency we met last time?"

Old Lady: "I remember you told me they might be transporting ore."

"Yes, it should be ore."

"There's a place nearby called Baoyun Ridge. There's ore produced there, and I want to go and take a look."

The old lady fell into deep thought after hearing this, and then she asked: "Why go to such a dangerous place?"

Shen Jinyao was puzzled. She asked, "Does grandma know something?"

The old lady recalled what she had heard before and said, "I just heard that there were two wealthy businessmen in the capital who had a big fight over a mineral resource."

"But I don't know about Baoyun Ridge."

Shen Jinyao said, "Grandma, have you ever thought about what our Shen family will do when we arrive in Quzhou?"

The old lady sighed and said, "To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet."

"All I can think about is these children and returning to the path of official career."

Shen Jinyao said, "But...we have to find a way to live and make money."

Old lady: "What do you mean?"

"Grandma, I went to Baoyun Ridge just to see what the situation is like there. If we can take the opportunity to rent a piece of land and find someone to dig..."

"As long as there are minerals, whether you sell them to others or process them yourself, it's a good business."

The old lady was stunned after hearing this. She didn't expect that her granddaughter had a business acumen.

Shen Jinyao continued, "It would be fine if Baoyun Ridge was farther away from us, but now it's nearby. Wouldn't it be a shame not to go and see it?"

The old lady thought for a long time, and finally said: "Then let the brothers of the Zong family accompany you."

Shen Jinyao refused without a second thought, "They can't go with me. I'm worried about leaving you here. They need to stay and protect you."

The old lady continued, "Then let Zhiyong and the others go with you. Although they are not capable enough, they can still be a help."

Shen Jinyao: "They still have their own things to do. I bought them some books, and they also have to learn some kung fu from the brothers of the Zong family."

In fact, Shen Jinyao did not say what she really thought.

She was worried about Gou Wa.

These kids are at home, so we can keep an eye on them.

Old Madam: "Then let Zhang Er follow, or..."

Shen Jinyao smiled and said, "Let them follow me. I don't know who will protect whom."

I don’t know if it’s a problem of physical fitness or talent.

Dali, Zhang Er and the other two haven't learned kung fu as well as Shen Zhiyong.

"Grandma, don't worry. I promise I will come back safe and sound and won't get hurt."

"It would only take about half a month to go back and forth. If we can establish a relationship with a reliable person, this will be our escape route when we get to Quzhou."

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, the old lady didn't say anything, and the two of them just sat there.

She did not urge the old lady. After all, an old lady from a traditional and conservative family would not let her granddaughter go out and do whatever she wanted.

It’s said to be doing business, but how many women can do business?

What's more, she knew that she had some skills and had the space at hand, so nothing would go wrong.

But the old lady didn't know.

In the old lady's eyes, Shen Jinyao in front of her was her granddaughter who had just recovered from a serious illness.

Because the family is young and the elders are old, the granddaughter became the head of the family.

The old lady felt that she owed Shen Jinyao.

If she were asked to take risks at this time, she would definitely be unwilling to do so.

but……

What Shen Jinyao said made a lot of sense.

……

Shen Jinyao noticed the old lady's dilemma and asked, "Grandma, let me ask you, if I were Zhizheng or Zhiyong, and they were doing this..."

She looked into the old lady's eyes and asked, "Are you still so hesitant?"

The old lady's eyes lit up, and she smiled and said, "Ah, you are really eloquent. It's a pity that I didn't raise a son like you, and I don't see any grandsons as adventurous as you..."

"Go ahead, Grandma only wants you to come back safely..."

At this point, the old lady began to cry, "Grandma, don't be like this. Have you forgotten what the doctor told you just now? Don't overwork yourself, get more rest, and exercise properly..."

In fact, the doctor had something else to say, and she could understand it.

The old lady’s illness is actually a knot in her heart.

She overthinks and worries too much.

"By the way, Grandma, I've been away for a while, so I need you to keep it a secret from my mother..."

"And Zhiyong and the others, I've assigned them all study tasks, can you help me keep an eye on them..."

"Also, I bought some seeds. Have Dongmei and the others plant one of each. They should be able to grow some vegetables in a month."

"And Dongmei and the others. I wanted to make more clothes and shoes for the family, so I bought a lot of cloth..."

The old lady held her forehead and said, "Hey, little girl, you don't care about the family anymore and want to throw the burden to me."

Shen Jinyao laughed, which was a good way to divert her grandmother's attention.

"Grandma, I'll leave first. It will be hard to travel in the dark."

Old Lady: Huh???
