Farming and reading family

It’s not that he looks down on women, but in such a rural place, their knowledge is limited and it’s difficult for them to have great talents.

It has been getting hot these days. Gao E felt an itchy nose tip before she woke up in the morning. She sneezed reflexively and turned around to see Zheng Yue standing by the bed holding a bunch of mugwort and laughing.

"Mom, Uncle Song said this is mugwort and it smells very good." Chen Zhengyue said as he held it up in front of his mother again.

Only then did Gao E remember that tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival.

Life used to be very tight, and she didn't pay much attention to rituals. For ordinary festivals, she would either let others prepare for them or she wouldn't celebrate them at all.

In fact, people in the village still pay more attention to these festivals, which are their few hopes.

Gao E noticed that Zheng Yue seemed very interested in flowers and plants: "Pick some more and pick some mint. We can make some mosquito repellent cream later."

"Okay." Chen Zhengyue left happily.

Gao E was no longer sleepy. Moving and entertaining guests were very tiring. Fortunately, there were many people in her family now, so she didn't have to take care of it herself.

After getting dressed and coming out of the house, I felt very happy looking at the spacious yard.

The efforts of the past two years have been very fruitful.

"Boss Gao is up." Xing Jia had been waiting in the yard for a while.

"Uncle Xing." Gao E walked over with a smile.

"I'm out of some medicinal ingredients for the medicinal bath. I have to go to Qinzhou City." Xing Jia said directly.

"Then let's see how much it will cost. Thank you, Uncle Xing, for the trouble you made." Gao E hasn't asked about this matter recently.

Xing Jia nodded: "I'm going with Xiao Chuyun. He wants to buy some seeds."

"Okay." Gao E agreed.

Gao E never asked about Xiao Chuyun. She would show his writings to her elder brother and they would discuss it among themselves.

Xing Jia and Gao E left after they finished talking. Gao E suddenly wondered if the doctor Yan Congfang mentioned would not come?

If the doctor hadn't come soon, the sequelae Yan Zheng is now left with would probably be difficult to cure.

And Cao Geng was really patient. As long as the prince didn't reply, he kept Liu Wenyan locked up.

I just thought about it for a moment and didn't spend too much time on it. It's all a matter of building bridges when there's water, and I can't decide on my own.

After breakfast, Gao E wanted to go to Tao Meiyu's yard to take a look.

If no one maintains this yard after it is built, it will be in ruins again in a few years.

She wanted to write to Tao Meiyu and ask her whether she should send someone to maintain it herself or let her handle it.

As soon as I went out, I saw several people dismounting and knocking on the door.

"Mrs. Chen." Bai Hao saluted.

"Have you changed your employer?" Gao E looked at the people behind Bai Hao and found that she didn't recognize them.

One of them was obviously the master, with the aura of a superior.

Gao E subconsciously thought it was Prince Qing, but she didn't know why Prince Qing came to see her.

Prince Qing also took a look at Gao E. Although she was graceful and elegant, there was nothing particularly special about her.

"My master asked me to accompany Young Master Wang here." Bai Hao said with a smile.

Prince?

Another prince?

"Please come in." Gao E made way.

Bai Hao also stepped aside, and Prince Qing walked to the front.

"What do you want to talk to me about, Young Master Wang?" Gao E asked directly.

Prince Qing handed Gao E the letter written by Xu Boyan and said, "Madam Chen, please read the letter first."

Gao E walked over and opened the letter. There were only four words written on it: Tell me everything you know.

Gao E smiled and looked at Prince Qing: "Prince, do you have something to ask me?"

Prince Qing had not expected Xu Boyan's letter to Gao to be so simple: "Lord Xu said that listening to both sides will lead to a clear understanding. There are some things we can discuss."

Gao E brought Prince Qing into the main hall. Even Bai Hao was guarding the door and did not come in.

"Prince Qing wants to talk to me?" Gao E looked surprised.

Prince Qing then turned to Gao E and asked, "Did Xu Boyan tell you my identity?"

Gao E bowed and let Prince Qing take the main seat: "I heard that Prince Qing wants to investigate the Zhiwei Tower in Tanzhou City and brought Bai Hao with him. Only His Royal Highness Prince Qing can do this."

Prince Qing smiled and said, "Since you have guessed my identity and are still so calm, no wonder Xu Boyan looks at you differently."

Gao E also sat down: "Your Highness did not set up any ceremonial guards, naturally he did not want to scare this common woman."

Seeing Gao E like this, Prince Qing felt that even if he set up a ceremonial procession, she would not be afraid. "I came here to ask for something."

"Your Majesty, please give your orders."

"I heard that you have gunpowder that can be installed with mechanisms and is extremely powerful." Prince Qing said directly.

Gao E suddenly realized that Prince Qing was coming for the gunpowder.

It is estimated that Xu Boyan has been eyeing it for a long time, but he just didn't dare to speak up, so he asked Prince Qing to come.

It was difficult for him to refuse since Prince Qing had spoken.

"Lord Xu said it's extremely powerful?" Gao E didn't avoid the question.

"Yeah." Prince Qing nodded slightly.

"Could it be that Prince Qing wants it?" Gao E looked at Prince Qing.

Prince Qing sighed slightly: "In the current war between Dachang and Shuoxi, Dachang is at a disadvantage, so the peace faction has the upper hand in the court..."

Gao E smiled unconsciously when she heard this.

"Madam Chen, do you have any other opinions?" Prince Qing saw Gao laughing.

"I don't understand the affairs of the court. I just think that what a person advocates is most likely to be beneficial to him, rather than what the external conditions are." Gao E said slowly.

"Dachang is at a disadvantage and cannot win, so it has to advocate peace. If Dachang is in a strong position, they will still say that we are a country of etiquette and peace is the most precious thing." Gao E spread her hands.

Prince Qing thought about it and said, "What does Madam Chen think?"

"Just destroy it and make this problem completely non-existent." Gao E said simply.

Prince Qing didn't expect that these words came from the mouth of a common woman. She was so ignorant of the world.

On second thought, he laughed. Wasn't this the reason why he came to ask Gao for gunpowder?

"That makes sense." Prince Qing nodded.

Gao E thought it was no wonder that Xu Boyan followed Prince Qing, and was easy to talk to: "I can give the gunpowder to the prince, but I have a request."

"what?"

"To vindicate the Jin and Wei families." Gao E said directly.

Prince Qing thought Gao E would seek some benefits for him, but he didn't expect that she would actually redress someone else's grievances.

"If these two families were wronged, the court should redress their grievances. This is not a condition." Prince Qing said seriously.

Gao E was a little surprised: "Your Highness Prince Qing is wise."

"How can you be considered wise if you don't do what you should do?" Prince Qing shook his head in shame.

This made Gao E feel much better about Prince Qing: "Master Xu asked the prince to come here not just for this matter, right?"

Prince Qing nodded. He had only brought this up on the spur of the moment. "Lord Xu mentioned that you contributed to both the Qinzhou City and Zhiwei Tower incidents. Now that these two matters are about to be resolved, what do you think is the best outcome?"

"Of course it's a happy ending for everyone." Gao E spread her hands.

Prince Qing frowned. He was hoping to gain a mention in his father's eyes with these two things. How could everyone be happy?

But these two things brought him too much benefit, which made him feel uneasy.

"Your Highness will think about this matter, and he should be a little hesitant. So why not think about who you want to show this to in the end?" Gao E said directly, "You can't do everything. The number of Dayan is also to escape one and use it. If you do everything, it will be a failure."
