After Xu Qinian watched Jiang Jin and his servant's carriage completely disappear, he sighed and said to Xu Shangyi, "Grandfather, you're a little anxious today."

"Hey!"

"I know this, but I'm worried about the future of the Xu family. This time, we're leaving Yudu with our entire family, and the Xu family has been completely removed from Yudu's powerful ranks."

When Xu Shangyi heard what his grandson said, he turned and walked towards the main gate of the yard, speaking worriedly.

"Grandfather, Huaizhi is not the true gentle and upright former Crown Prince. Many of Grandfather's words can influence the former Crown Prince, but they cannot influence the current Prince Jin at all."

Xu Qinian looked at his grandfather's somewhat hunched and thin back. Although he couldn't bear it, he still analyzed it carefully to Xu Shangyi.

The current Prince Jin is not someone they can control; he is a scheming superior.

"But Grandfather, don't worry too much. Huaizhi is a man who values ​​relationships. You can tell from the fact that our family can safely come to Maple Leaf City and have such a place to stay."

Then Xu Qinian comforted Xu Shangyi again, saying that Prince Jin would always remember the friendship of the Xu family in raising Queen Xia.

If Prince Jin can be honored at the ceremony, even if the Xu family cannot regain its former prosperity, its descendants will be able to live in peace and prosperity.

"Chuan'er, do you think Huaizhi can really reach that position? The emperors of all dynasties were all healthy people."

Xu Shangyi stood in the yard, looked up at the cold bright moon, and asked his grandson with a sigh.

Xu Cinian, whose courtesy name is Yuchuan.

"Grandfather, the Crown Prince's cousin's two sons are still alive. Huaizhi will fight for them no matter what."

"Grandfather was mistaken. My grandson sees things clearly!"

Xu Shangyi patted his grandson's shoulder and sighed with relief.

"However, I'm afraid your sister and Aunt Gui's trip will not go smoothly."

Then he thought of his daughter Xu Qingqing, whom he had let go with a blind eye.

He had selfish motives in asking Xu Qingqing to find Jiang Jin. If Xu Qingqing could really marry Jiang Jin, then no matter whether Jiang Jin could win the throne in the future, their Xu family would at least have something to rely on.

"Hey! Grandfather, looking at my cousin Huaizhi's appearance, I'm afraid my sister might be..."

Xu Qinian didn't say the rest of the words because he was afraid that his sister would become disliked.

"Since ancient times, men have had three wives and four concubines. Your sister is not inferior in any way. She is definitely more gentle and soft-spoken than that country woman. Huaizhi will definitely change his mind after seeing her."

After hearing this, Xu Shangyi thought about it and understood his grandson's concerns. Then he said as if to comfort himself.

In his eyes, a vulgar village woman was no match for his granddaughter Xu Qingqing, a noble lady from a wealthy family in Yudu.

But Xu Qinian didn't say anything. Not to mention his own sister, he knew her character very well. Not only was she simple-minded, but she was also domineering.

Only her grandfather thought that his granddaughter was perfect.

"It's getting late, go to bed!"

Xu Shangyi looked at his grandson in silence, then looked at the moonlight and said.

"Well! Grandpa, go to bed early, and your grandson will go and rest."

After the grandfather and grandson finished their conversation, they went to their rooms to rest.

Jiang Jin and his two servants left Xu Shangyi's family's yard and headed towards the Ningyuan Army's camp.

As for Mu Jiaojiao, whom Jiang Jin had been thinking about all the time, after an effortless competition with Xu Qingqing and others, she started to think about her own business plans in the past few days.

That day, Mu Jiaojiao asked Zhao Xiangyi to drive the carriage and take Yu Danping to Hexi Town.

Mu Jiaojiao first went to Jin Yumantang to find Jin Baoer, and handed Yu Danping to him, asking him to take good care of her and treat her well.

Jin Baoer was of course strongly opposed to this. How could Jiaojiao's wife force a stinky man into his arms? Although Yu Danping was not bad looking, both men and women would have a desire to protect him.

But he still likes sweet and soft little beauties, and he feels uncomfortable doing business with a smelly man.

However, the objection was ineffective. After Mu Jiaojiao gave her a look, Jin Baoer automatically shut up. The lackey said that he would definitely teach her a lesson.

He just stole the hot pot recipe from Mu Jiaojiao, and he wanted to add another level to Jin Yumantang's business.

Mu Jiaojiao came out of Jin Yumantang and went to the garrison office. The newly appointed garrison commander was named Zhang, a famous man in his thirties. He was recommended by Song Yang and had a good reputation and was capable.

She went to Zhang Zhenshou and bought several mountains connected to the mountain behind her house, totaling about 1,000 acres.

She also bought a thousand acres of land very close to Hexi Town from Han Junlian, whose property was confiscated after he was imprisoned. Among them, there were 200 acres of high-quality farmland, 500 acres of medium-quality farmland, and 300 acres of low-quality mountain land.

In the end, Mu Jiaojiao made up her mind and bought the empty building of the former Fulai Restaurant.

It cost her a total of 23,000 taels of silver, which made Mu Jiaojiao feel extremely painful.

If Jin Yumantang had not given her another 20,000 taels of silver recently, plus the several thousand taels she had left over from previous miscellaneous payments, she probably would not have been able to pay the money.

But Mu Jiaojiao thought about her future plans and had no choice but to buy it with great reluctance. After spending all this money, she still had about two thousand taels of silver left.

She now has to go back and hire someone to plow the soil and plant flowers.

That's right!

It’s about planting flowers, different kinds of flowers.

She wants to create an industry called "Flowers Blooming in Four Seasons" named after flowers.

When Mu Jiaojiao thought about the future, she felt inexplicably overwhelmed with emotion. Her eyes were never on Lihua Village or Hexi Town, but on the entire territory of Dayu.

After Mu Jiaojiao and others completed all the formalities at the garrison office, they collected the land deeds and house deeds, and asked Zhao Xiangyi to drive the carriage to Tongji Pharmacy to get some medicine.

The pharmacists at Tongji Pharmacy knew that Mu Jiaojiao was already their junior master, so they usually charged the lowest price for the medicine. In fact, they didn't want to charge her, but Mu Jiaojiao didn't allow it.

Meng He would occasionally come back to Tongji Pharmacy for a few days, and it was still operating normally. After all, most people in the town only had minor illnesses and did not need Meng He to be here every day.

Afterwards, Mu Jiaojiao and Zhao Xiangyi went to buy some rice, pork, and other daily necessities.

Zhao Xiangyi was responsible for the hard labor, and Mu Jiaojiao felt much more relaxed.

The people of Dayu were quite open-minded. When Mu Jiaojiao, a woman, brought Zhao Xiangyi, who was like a bodyguard, the people of Hexi Town only looked at them curiously at most.

After all, Zhao Xiangyi used to be a guard in Hexi Town. It was only because his sister was sick that he resigned from the guard position and went home to take care of his sister.

After finishing all the shopping, Mu Jiaojiao got on the carriage, and Zhao Xiangyi naturally drove the carriage to Lihua Village.

"Xiangyi, have you ever thought about joining the army?"

Mu Jiaojiao sat in the carriage, looking at the scenery receding outside the window, and asked in a neither loud nor soft voice.

Zhao Xiangyi was stunned when he heard this. He had never thought that Mu Jiaojiao would ask him this question.

"Master, Xiangyi did think so."

Zhao Xiangyi reacted immediately and answered Mu Jiaojiao truthfully and respectfully.
