The girl traveled through another world and forced the prince to take the imperial examination
Chapter 221 New Year’s Eve
This year is very different for Mu Qingcheng, because it is her first New Year after traveling through time and space to this strange world.
Although her longing for her family surged like a tide, she knew that she could never return to that home.
Mu Qingcheng didn't like to dwell on sadness. Since she was little, her parents and brother only wanted her to be happy, so she had to do her best to make herself happy.
She decided to pay for it herself and sent 30 kilograms of rice and 30 kilograms of flour to every household in the village. This food was undoubtedly a timely help for the villagers.
Daxi Village has several workshops this year, and every household is no longer short of money. Unfortunately, Daxing Town and the county seat are both under lockdown, leaving nowhere to buy or sell goods. If they want meat or vegetables, they can only exchange them within the village. However, the village's supplies are limited, and the village chief can only take people to other villages to exchange goods every now and then.
The situation in other villages was even worse.
Mu Qingcheng's generosity really saved the villagers. They were so grateful that they wanted to kowtow to Mu Qingcheng, but Mu Qingcheng told the village chief that she liked the hustle and bustle. Only when everyone is well fed can there be a lively atmosphere, right?
The whole village then became truly lively. The villagers set up their long-dusty gongs and drums. Men, women, young and old all burst into song, venting their inner joy.
The gongs and drums are loud, the singing is loud, and everyone is laughing and having fun. Finally, the New Year is coming.
Mu Qingcheng thought the people here were really cute and she was really touched.
With a wave of her hand, she asked Mo Feng to buy ten sheep and ten pigs to distribute to each household. She hoped that every household could eat dumplings on New Year's Eve.
When the villagers heard about it, gratitude and joy shone in their eyes, and Mu Qingcheng's heart was also satisfied.
Perhaps this is the ultimate purpose of making money! She spent the money worth it.
Mo Yu was secretly worried. Daxing Town and the county were about to run out of food. How would they get through the New Year? And their master was still paying to support so many people. He knew that his master's biggest worry was food.
No matter what, on the morning of New Year's Eve, everyone in Daxi Village had a smile on their face, simply because they had never had such a happy New Year.
Every household was busy, men, women, young and old, sweeping their houses with brooms. Even the big locust tree at the entrance of the village was decorated with new things, its branches full of red ribbons, carrying the wishes of everyone in the village.
In the center of the village stood a massive five-meter-long table. Spread out on it were sheets of red paper and brushes and ink. Six or seven people gathered around the table, writing Spring Festival couplets.
Yun Qing is always the most handsome guy in the village. Those who were asked by him to write Spring Festival couplets include Feng Zhishang, Li Nanxuan, Su Jiyu, and Moyu among the Dragon Shadow Guards. Mofeng's handwriting is okay, and finally even Moxue was asked to write a few words.
The villagers lined up to receive the Spring Festival couplets, and the area was crowded with onlookers.
"Is the young master in the middle the young master of the Mu family?"
"Who else could it be if not him?"
"Didn't he say he was blind? Why doesn't he look like one?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"You forgot that Dr. Feng lives in their house. This must have been cured!"
"Oh! The miracle doctor's medical skills are incredible. Our sheep had a difficult birth, and it was the miracle doctor who saved them. Otherwise, both the big and small sheep would have been lost."
"Look, it's different now that my eyes are healed. I look even more handsome."
"This young master of the Mu family has really good handwriting. He's truly a scholar. Maybe he'll even get the top spot in the imperial examination. I'd love to share in his good fortune. I'll definitely have a copy of his calligraphy."
"Forget it, you! Haven't you seen how long the line is in front of him? If you go there, I'm afraid you won't even get a single "Fu" character. Let's just queue up for Doctor Feng's character!"
Yun Qing and his friends wrote non-stop for the whole morning and finally finished writing the Spring Festival couplets for all the villagers.
Every household excitedly began to post Spring Festival couplets. One person held aloft a red scroll, while another stood on a stool, pasting the brand new scrolls on the front door. The vibrant red color brought life to the bleak winter day, and the entire village was filled with joy.
The Black Armored Army was no longer visible in the village. They had been arranged to set up camp in the Dongling Mountains. Besides the secret guards, a number of others remained in the village, dressed in ordinary villagers' clothes and blending in with the villagers.
The paths in the village were swept clean, a stage was set up in front of the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, and bonfires were lit on both sides of the stage.
There are a few old people in the village who can play some musical instruments and sing. When they were young and had good voices, they performed a piece of opera for everyone. The audience in the audience was also very enthusiastic, and the cheers could be heard for seven miles.
A team of horse-drawn carriages was heading towards Daxi Village. The people in the carriages heard bursts of laughter and couldn't help but stick their heads out of the windows to watch.
"Miss Su, Daxi Village is just ahead. We finally don't have to spend New Year's Eve on the road."
The person who came was Su Qingyan. She was supposed to come back on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, but the shop had too many orders, and the business of the coal stove and coal was too booming.
After finally making all the arrangements and preparing to return to Daxi Village, she received another letter from Mu Qingcheng. In the letter, Mu Qingcheng confessed Yun Qing's identity and said that she wanted to help him. What Yun Qing lacked most was food, and Mu Qingcheng wanted to exchange all the money she had for food.
Su Qingyan had thought that their identities were not simple, but she never expected that their identities would be so complicated.
Su Qingyan did not reveal Yun Qing's identity to anyone. She only told Zhou Da that Mu Qingcheng wanted to do grain business and see if she could raise a batch of grain in a short time.
Zhou Daer said nothing, took the money and went to Anyang. After more than ten days, he only collected 4,000 to 5,000 kilograms of food from Anyang, which was far from enough.
Su Qingyan went to several counties near Jiangzhou to buy grain, but unfortunately the price was too high and they were all coarse grains.
Just when she was at a loss, Ning Haochen came to find her. Su Qingyan then realized that the Ning family had also taken refuge with the prince, and they had become his own family.
Su Qingyan was not pretentious. She directly told Mu Qingcheng what she was planning. Since they were all working for the prince, she had to help.
The Ning family specializes in the grain business; as long as one has money, they can get any amount of grain. Su Qingyan calculated the silver money in her hand and directly purchased 5,000 to 6,000 dan of grain, spending a total of 20,000 taels of silver.
Su Qingyan's heart finally settled down. She loaded the 5,000 kilograms of grain Zhou Da had collected onto the car and prepared to return to Daxi Village.
However, at this moment, Ning Haochen beside her said that he had important matters to report to His Highness, and they could just go together.
After many twists and turns, Su Qingyan finally arrived at Daxi Village in the afternoon of New Year's Eve. Besides the food, Ning Haochen also returned with her.
The news of Su Qingyan's return soon reached Mu Qingcheng. Mu Qingcheng, who was busy at home, was so happy when she heard the news that she immediately pulled Mu Yao and trotted straight to the village entrance to greet her.
Before the carriage approached the village entrance, Su Qingyan, who was sitting in the carriage, saw Mu Qingcheng and Mu Yao standing at the village entrance, looking forward to it.
"Sister Su, you are finally back!" Mu Qingcheng couldn't wait to shout loudly when she saw Su Qingyan, and her voice was filled with irrepressible joy.
"Sister Su, Mu Yao misses you so much! You've been away for such a long time, why did you come back just now?" Then, Mu Yao threw herself into Su Qingyan's arms like a happy little bird, and kept acting coquettishly.
Su Qingyan stroked Mu Yao's head and held Mu Qingcheng's hand. The three little sisters who had not seen each other for a long time couldn't help but smile brightly.
