Farming and reading family

Gao E was surprised by Duan Yuping's sudden guilt, but she didn't seem to say anything.

"I bought it, it's my business, I can handle it myself," she said calmly.

Duan Yuping became inexplicably irritated out of guilt. It was indeed her mistake. She refused to let the Chen family help out of face, but she couldn't force those gentry and landlords. To put it bluntly, the Gao family was easy to bully.

But Gao's attitude made her feel ashamed.

Gao E is the person she wants to be, but when such a person stands in front of her, she feels a fear in her heart and is afraid of becoming such a person.

Gao E had no idea of ​​Duan Yuping's complicated psychology at the moment. She only felt that the young girl was arrogant and unstable.

"Then think it over carefully." Duan Yuping's tone softened. "If you don't buy it, I won't bother you."

Gao E didn't know why she suddenly changed her mind: "I'll buy it."

Duan Yuping looked at Gao E in surprise: "Have you thought it through?"

"See you at the yamen tomorrow afternoon." Gao E thought it through.

Why do I feel like I can't keep the little money I have?

Duan Yuping saw Gao E leave and sit there for a long time. She thought that she had been able to read and do business like a man since she was a child, but something was missing.

Lu Hao drove the carriage as fast as he could, regardless of the bumps, fearing that the people behind would catch up with him.

"Slow down." Gao E was shaken and couldn't sit still. "They won't catch up."

Lu Hao slowed down a bit and looked over before he felt relieved: "What does Miss Duan want to do?"

"Nothing." Gao E didn't tell Lu Hao, "You go back today and pack up, and move to He County tomorrow."

"Okay." Lu Hao nodded.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw Chen Ke waiting there, and when they saw the carriage, they immediately came to greet him.

"Mr. Chen." Lu Hao greeted him and stopped the carriage.

Gao E lifted the car curtain and saw Chen Ke with an anxious look on his face: "Are you done with the school stuff?" She said as she got out of the car.

Chen Ke supported her and said, "I thought you would be back after lunch. What took you so long?"

Gao E asked Lu Hao to drive back first: "It's hard to buy things in He County now, and I met an acquaintance on the way, which delayed me for a while."

Chen Ke felt a little sorry: "It's really hard for my wife to take care of these trivial matters."

Gao E smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that Lu Hao is planning to return to Huixian County. I'll go see him off tomorrow and see if he needs anything. I'll leave him some money, after all, he's been in our house for so long."

"It's my duty." Chen Ke nodded.

"By the way, I met Lord He today. I would like to ask him to come and attend the groundbreaking ceremony of our village school and bring a few teachers with him." Gao E thought about this.

Chen Ke looked at Gao E in shock: "Did Lord He agree?"

"Well, Lord He said that your prescription has been of great help, so you should come." Gao E knew that He Tangchun would not expose her.

Chen Ke couldn't hide his excitement: "Then... the groundbreaking ceremony needs to be grand. Didn't we buy too little?"

"I don't understand this either. My husband, if you think you need anything else, I'll buy it for you tomorrow."

Chen Ke thought for a moment and said, "The offerings are fixed, and we can't go beyond the limit. We just have to eat a richer meal."

"Don't worry about this, my husband. We still have the pork from before, and there are plenty of spring sprouts now. I'll discuss it with my sister-in-law and the others, and the banquet will definitely have something special." Gao E promised.

Chen Ke felt relieved after hearing Gao E's promise.

"Also..." Gao E hesitated for a moment. "Should we invite our parents back for such a big matter?"

Hearing that he had to ask his parents for help, Chen Ke's expression froze for a moment: "After all, this is a village matter, not our family's, so there's no need to ask them to make the trip."

"Then I'll go bring them something tomorrow."

Chen Ke was worried that Gao E would let the cat out of the bag. "They don't lack anything there. My wife is already exhausted from buying things, so there's no need to go."

Gao E sighed, "I didn't go to see my parents today. If they find out one day, they'll probably blame me for not visiting their home."

"It's okay." Chen Ke comforted, "My wife is too busy."

Gao E was completely relieved when she heard Chen Ke say this.

There was no need for her to become alienated from Chen Ke because of the two elders of the Chen family. Anyway, let Chen Ke take care of the Chen family's affairs. As long as she didn't rush to the front, she only needed to say some warm words from behind.

When they got home, Lu Hao had already unloaded the things from the carriage and led the horses to the stable to drink water.

When Chen Ke went to see something, Lu Hao winked and asked Gao E to go over.

"What's the matter?" Gao E looked at Lu Hao's humble look.

"I want this horse." Lu Hao pointed to a chestnut horse.

Gao E thought he had picked it up: "Why?"

"Red auspicious." Lu Hao touched the horse's butt.

Gao E didn't know that Lu Hao was so superstitious: "Okay, don't lose weight, or you'll come back running."

"Of course, of course." Lu Hao said with a flattering look on his face.

Lu Hao told Luo Dagang that he wanted to return to Hexian County, but Luo Dagang didn't care much.

"As for...that kid Zheng Xiaoshun, if you really don't like him, just keep him away from Qing'er." Lu Hao reminded in a low voice.

Luo Dagang glanced at Lu Hao.

"I also treat Qing'er as my sister and want her to live a better life." Lu Hao explained hurriedly.

"Be careful when you go back to the city alone." Luo Dagang said this after a long time.

"Okay, I understand." Lu Hao knew that this was already good.

It was dark when Master Xie arrived outside Chen's house pulling a flatbed truck.

There was no need for Gao E to invite him, he came by himself with the things.

He had a lot of stuff, all strange tools, and there were several boxes underneath.

The Chen family came out to help him move things, and Gao E was overwhelmed.

The cave where the man lived was already crowded, and now that so many things were moved in, I'm afraid it might not be able to accommodate everyone.

Xie Laosan was not polite at all and directed Chen Qing and the others on how to move things.

"Master Xie, this... kiln hasn't been opened yet." Gao E thought it would take until after the summer harvest to build a house.

"That also requires planning ahead and laying the foundation. As long as everything is arranged well in advance, I guarantee that all the houses in your village will be built before winter." Xie Laosan promised, patting his chest.

Gao E was speechless. Master Xie had a really weird temper.

After a lot of trouble, I finally arranged everything for Xie Laosan, but it was already late.

Seeing that Gao E didn't know what Xiao Wu was looking at after she coaxed him, Yang walked over hesitantly.

"Your elder brother said he wanted to discuss something with you." Yang said in a low voice.

"Hmm?" Gao E looked up. "Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly."

"There are too many people in their cave now. Your eldest brother wants the second child and the children to come and sleep with you, so that there will be more space over there." Yang said with a smile.

She thought that others would envy the second son and his wife for being able to live together.

Gao E doesn't think this is something to be envied.

Chen Ke and his four children all came over, and life there was indeed more spacious, but she didn't want to live with Chen Ke.
