It's really hard to just farm peacefully.

The guest house of the Rongcheng County Magistrate's official residence.

Yesterday, Fu Weixin received an urgent letter from her aunt in the prefecture. Instructing Governor Fang, who was very dissatisfied with her prolonged stay in Rongcheng County, she was ordered to return home immediately. She was very unhappy.

But we are no longer in the capital, so it is relatively easy to do things. If we are unhappy, we naturally have to do things that make us happy.

After Huanyan "forced" the girl to leave today from Mrs. Yang's mouth, she had been pestering the girl all day, and this morning she stayed by her side, wanting to go with her.

After Fu Weixin leisurely finished his breakfast, he changed his cold and indifferent attitude from the past few days and asked Huanyan in a gentle voice, "This is your last chance to change your mind. Do you really want to go?"

Huanyan was proud of the girl's compromise with her again and nodded repeatedly, "I will go with you."

"Yile, do you want to join us?" Fu Weixin looked at the person who had been standing on the right and remained silent.

Yile was a little flustered. She wasn't sure what the girl meant by "the last time." After a few breaths of deliberation, her voice tightened, "Reporting to the girl, we are short of manpower for this trip. I would like to stay in the courtyard to look after the family and cannot accompany you."

"Then just guard it well and don't move around." Fu Weixin looked away.

"Here."

……

After leaving the county, Fu Weixin drove Huanyan out of the carriage and asked her to follow on foot.

In the afternoon, Dongshan Village once again welcomed Fu Nulang's convoy. Compared to the last time, County Magistrate Wu was not present, and the number of guards was reduced by half. However, there was a young maidservant beside the carriage, her cheeks flushed, sweating profusely, and looking disheveled.

Jiang Xing, Jiang Wang and others hurried to the village entrance to welcome the people into the village.

Fu Weixin had no interest in the internal appearance of Dongshan Village, nor did he call the villagers to give him a lecture.

She got off the carriage and casually asked Jiang Wang, "Who was it that stood up and refuted me last time?"

"My lord, she is busy working in the fields and it is not convenient for her to come over and answer you right now." Jiang Wang bowed slightly and answered carefully.

Before Fu Weixin could say anything, Huanyan, who had been holding back her anger on the way here, burst out and scolded him: "How dare you! Who told you to refuse? Hurry and call them over!"

They were all servants, and it wasn't Miss Fu who spoke, so Jiang Wang just lowered his head and pretended to be a quail.

Fu Weixin originally felt that Jiang Wang, though obedient in his actions, was not willing to call him master, and wanted to prevent himself from causing trouble in advance, so he was not very obedient and was unpleasant...

However, his disregard for Huanyan made her feel much more relaxed. Recalling the previous similar resistance of the people in Dongshan Village, she became more determined.

"Call her over. I heard you found a cave and lived in it for a long time during the flood. Let her show me around."

The words were clear, and Jiang Wang couldn't refuse this time.

When Jiang Yan was called away from the field, he only had time to give the little sisters a reassuring smile and quickly rushed to Fu Weishen, his face, hands and coat still covered in sweat and mud.

When Huanyan saw this, she curled her lips and covered her nose in disgust, but Fu Weixin remained expressionless.

Jiang Yan lowered her eyes: ...Rarely seen, a maid is raised even more delicately than a young lady...

……

Fu Weixin rarely exercised, and hadn't walked much on mountain roads, so his strength wasn't much better than Jiang Yan's when he had just recovered. Before he'd even covered a third of the way, he was already panting with exhaustion, relying only on Mrs. Yang to keep him going.

Huanyan had almost exhausted all her energy walking from the county town to Dongshan Village. She was panting heavily with every step, and her legs were struggling. Now she no longer cared about Jiang Yan's slovenliness and asked her to carry her up the mountain.

Jiang Yan ignored him and asked Fu Weixin, "We still have two-thirds of the mountain road to go. At our current pace, it will be dark by the time we reach the cave. It's not safe to go down the mountain at night. Do you want to continue up or return to the village?"

"Keep going." Fu Weixin insisted, gritting his teeth. Now that he was here, he had to finish the job.
