Chapter 653 Borrowing a Horse
Inviting a lot of people?
What do you think?
Liang Jiange grasped the key point in an instant.
It felt like Gao E was threatening him.
He heard from Du Weiqing that all the people who came would be famous scholars. If the news of him being hit on the buttocks by a woman with his sword became known to everyone, he would simply go to the deep mountains and forests and never see anyone again.
If he were there, these people might not be too embarrassed to say anything to his face, and even if they did, he would know how they said it.
If I weren't here, I don't know what people would say.
"In that case, we'd better obey your orders and wait for Mr. Du and the others." Liang Jiange said with a smile.
Anyway, there is still some time before they come back, so I have to find a way to convince those who know about this matter and prevent it from escalating further.
Tang Song looked at Liang Jiange and knew that he was unreliable and changed his mind so quickly.
"Right, Brother Tang?" Liang Jiange pulled Tang Song along.
"Yes." It was not easy for Tang Song to walk alone.
"You haven't had lunch yet, right? Go back and eat something first." Gao E called out.
Although it was past dinner time, everything in the kitchen was ready. Gao E asked Lianxin to call her mother back because the food cooked by Hao was delicious.
Chen Qing was about to get off the ground when he saw Yang looking out through the crack in the door: "If you want to go out, go out."
When Yang heard Chen Qing say this, she immediately pulled Chen Qing aside and said, "Two more men have come to my second brother's house."
Chen Qing frowned and looked at his wife: "If you want to say hello, go over and say hello."
Yang said that this was not what she meant. "My second brother is not at home now. We already have so many farmhands at home, and the magistrate comes here every few days. Now two more men have come. How are we going to explain this to my second brother when he comes back?"
"We all know what kind of people our second brother's wife is like. Besides, there are so many people in his family, and it's not like he's meeting a man alone. There's no need to worry." Chen Qing reminded Yang.
"This is what we see, but what about what we can't see?" Yang said with a serious expression.
Chen Qing felt that Yang was just too idle now.
When people are idle, they create trouble.
"Then you should visit your second brother's wife more often and take a closer look," Chen Qing suggested.
Yang has been busy with Han Yue's marriage recently. She has been picky about rejecting all the matchmakers and has no time to go next door.
Besides, even if she had time, she wouldn't want to go. She is the eldest sister-in-law and is pregnant, so her second brother's wife should come to see her.
"I'm not feeling well." Yang made an excuse.
Chen Qing didn't want to talk about this with Yang: "Then just rest at home and don't stand at the door. Be careful not to hit you when the door opens." After he said that, he opened the door and went out.
Yang increasingly felt that her husband was not on her side. Look at the third couple, one has a good job and the other's shop is doing very well.
There are plenty of fruits and vegetables at this time of year, so Gao E asked Hao to make a simple bowl of tomato noodles, add some kimchi as an appetizer, and a portion of ready-made braised tofu.
Liang Jiange and Tang Song had never seen the red noodle soup before, but it smelled good. Thinking that Gao would not poison them in her house, they tried a bite.
After taking a bite, both of them looked at each other in surprise. The taste was simply amazing, especially when it was hot and stuffy and their appetite was poor.
Gao E looked at their expressions and thought they liked the taste better: "Eat more, there's more in the pot."
The two people thought that it was not elegant to eat from such a big bowl, but now they didn't care about being elegant anymore and just focused on eating noodles with ketchup.
Jin Ruyi also ate two bowls. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she always felt that Gao'e's food was better than Yueyuan's.
Seeing that Jin Ruyi could eat two bowls, Liang Jiange and Tang Song felt at ease to eat three bowls, as they were worried that any more would be disliked.
After lunch, Gao E saw them off and would pick them up after Tian's yard was ready.
The two of them were already looking forward to it.
After seeing off Jin Ruyi and the others, Gao E wanted to wait for Liang Jiange and Tang Song to come, as she might not have much time left, so she planned to go see the forest that Xu Boyan told her about tomorrow.
But that place is quite far away. Even if you ride a horse, it will take a whole day to go there and back.
So she got up early for the first time and took Lu Qingluo and Luo Dagang with her.
There are many fertile fields on the Dou Shui side of He County, while there are many slopes and forests on the side close to Qinzhou City.
Gao E and his companions took the official road to Tanzhou City and turned back when they arrived.
This road is quite long, but fortunately they are riding horses, so this detour is not a big deal because they are not familiar with the other roads.
Although he got up early, it was almost noon when he arrived at the forest that Xu Boyan mentioned. Luo Dagang dismounted and searched for a long time before he found the boundary marker.
Comparing the boundary markers and the map, it was no wonder that Xu Boyan recommended this place to her. It turned out to be a dirt hill, or to be more precise, a steeper dirt slope.
After riding around for a while, we found that there was a river in the middle, which had carved out a flat area in the valley.
This piece of flat land is also included in the mountain forest area.
Close to the water source, the crops are growing well.
Luo Dagang dismounted and searched for a long time but couldn't find the boundary marker, so the three of them had to move forward again.
There are only weeds and sparse shrubs growing on the barren hill in front. Although the weather is good this year, even the weeds have a hard time growing on it.
But this barren mountain was very large, and it took the three men a long time to reach the end. Luo Dagang also found the boundary stake there.
"This mountain doesn't produce anything. What would the Zhao family buy it for?" Lu Qingluo said with disgust.
Gao E did not dismount and climb the mountain: "Maybe it was a gift."
This barren mountain now seems to be of no use at all.
After looking at the mountain, the three of them found a place to eat some dry food they brought with them. As the sun was setting, they rode back together.
Not long after they got on the official road, they were stopped by someone.
Ning Zhiyuan clasped his fists and said hello: "Could you three sell us a horse? We will pay a high price."
Gao E looked at the carriage on the side. The carriage was luxurious and emitted a faint fragrance.
"Our horses' hooves were pierced by sharp objects and they can't pull the cart," Ning Zhiyuan explained.
"Are you going to He County?" Gao E asked.
"Yes." Ning Zhiyuan nodded.
"I'll lend you a horse. After you arrive in He County, you can send it to Yueyuan and say it's the horse of the Gao family in Baotou Village." Gao E said as she got off the horse.
Prince Bin lifted the carriage curtain and looked at Gao E: "Aren't you afraid that we won't return your horse?"
Gao E heard the voice and looked over: "This master is a wealthy man, he would never do such a thing."
Prince Bin laughed and said, "You don't look well off, so why are you willing to lend your horse to a stranger?"
"Everyone encounters difficulties." Gao E handed the reins to Ning Zhiyuan.
It was the first time that Prince Bin met such a generous person: "Okay, my name is Wang Bin, you can come to me if you have any problems in the future."
Gao E didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a person she met on the side of the road: "I don't want to encounter anything I can't solve myself."
Gao E got a headache when she thought about the things she couldn't solve.
Prince Bin thought this woman was quite interesting. "Send it to Yue Garden, right? I've made a note of it."
