Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!
Chapter 459 "Yaoyao was moved to tears." 2
Yue Yuan thought about it and decided to tell Yaoyao about this.
“Last time you told the Emperor about the drought in the north and how we didn’t receive a single grain of rice, the Emperor has already investigated thoroughly and found out who was involved in embezzling the relief grain.
Now we just lack a smoking gun.”
Yaoyao looked at Yueyuan and blinked. This...
Is the efficiency a bit slow?
She has been in the capital for more than a month, and I am only telling her this now.
His chubby face was full of speechlessness. He put away the seeds, propped up his chin and looked at a big tree in front of him. Then he yawned loudly, and his big round eyes were filled with tears.
"If you don't have evidence, then go find it. What's the point of telling me this?"
Yue Yuan: "There are many people involved in this matter. We arrested one of them and tortured him severely. He revealed that they had an envelope with the names of the participants and a parchment scroll.
But that person didn't know where the envelope and the parchment were hidden, so we didn't dare to act rashly, so this matter has been delayed until now."
Without solid evidence, rashly searching the residences of those officials would only arouse their vigilance and destroy the envelope and parchment scroll.
The emperor did not dare to take this risk and could only secretly observe which official the envelope and parchment were most likely to fall into.
The more Yaoyao listened, the more she felt that the envelope and parchment scroll Yueyuan mentioned were a little familiar, especially when the two came out of Yueyuan's mouth together. She took a sneaky glance at them in the space.
This...can't be such a coincidence, right?
No...right?
It seems that they are really the two things Yue Yuan mentioned.
Then Yaoyao heard something that broke her heart.
"If we can find the list of people on the envelope and return the stolen money from the parchment scroll to the people of the north, this case will be completely closed."
Yaoyao's body stiffened, her eyes wide open, her face full of disbelief.
what?
Does this mean that most of the gold and jewelry in the space must be returned?
Why did she feel like she was poor again overnight?
"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you?" Yue Yuan felt that Yaoyao's face looked a little strange. She looked like she wanted to cry but had no tears. Her eyes were tearful and her brows were red.
Yaoyao suppressed the discomfort in her heart, looked at Yueyuan with red eyes, and asked Yueyuan with a hint of tears in her voice.
"Uncle Yue, what if the stolen money is not found?"
"If we don't find any, then there will be no evidence to arrest those who are corrupt."
“wu...............wawawa!..............”
As Yue Yuan finished speaking, Yaoyao suddenly opened her mouth and burst into tears, which scared him greatly. Looking at Yaoyao crying so hard that his throat could be seen, he couldn't help but...
This.....none of us was crying for no reason and he didn't provoke her, why was she crying so suddenly?
Hearing the noise, Old Lady Liu quickly got up and got off the carriage. She regretted that she ran too slowly. The short distance still felt a bit far for Old Lady Liu.
Rushed to Yaoyao and held her in his arms...
"Oh my, why is my precious granddaughter crying? Tell grandma what's wrong?"
Old Lady Liu held Yaoyao in her arms and rocked her to comfort her. She looked at Yue Yuan who was bewildered beside her, and asked him what was wrong with Yaoyao.
Yue Yuan shook his head innocently, indicating that he didn't know either.
Should I ask Yaoyao about this?
"Yaoyao, please tell grandma what happened?" Seeing that Yueyuan really didn't know what happened, Grandma Liu had to ask Yaoyao.
Yaoyao didn't answer, but just kept crying.
Looking at the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry in the space, it seemed as if I could see them growing wings and flying away.
She feels so sad!
She didn't refuse to return it.
She just couldn't accept having to return the gold, silver and jewelry she had collected with great effort, and she felt very sad.
I feel so sad.
Old Lady Liu carried Yaoyao into the carriage to comfort her.
Leaving behind the messy moon abyss in the wind...
Why does he feel that something is wrong with Yaoyao?
Especially when Yaoyao heard that the stolen money had to be returned, she cried.
Could it be that Yaoyao was crying because she was moved?
That's why you're crying, right?
The more Yue Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was very possible. Yaoyao must have been moved to tears.
He had to urge the emperor to investigate this matter quickly.
Yaoyao was so moved that she burst into tears...
Yaoyao in the carriage had been comforted by a piece of twisted candy from Old Lady Liu. She was eating it while sobbing, tears streaming down her face, her whole face red from crying, which made Old Lady Liu very distressed.
"Yaoyao, grandma wants to ask you, why were you crying just now? Did someone bully you?" Grandma Liu hugged Yaoyao with a distressed look on her face. Seeing that her emotions gradually calmed down, she asked her what happened.
Yaoyao ate and shook her head, "No, I just missed my mother, that's why I cried."
She felt bad that the gold, silver and jewelry had to run away, what could she say?
At the same time, he was thinking about how to hand the parchment scroll and envelope to Yue Yuan.
Alas, the key point is that I have to return the three parchments and the gold, silver and jewelry I took away.
As Yaoyao thought about it, the fried dough twist candy in her hand no longer smelled good...
He threw away the twisted candy in his hand, got down from Old Lady Liu's arms, and lay down beside the sleeping Guoan and Yue'er.
The days of owning gold, silver and jewelry are too short, and she must cherish the days she has.
Thinking of this, Yaoyao in soul state pounced on the mountain of gold and jewels, struggling hard on it.
Woo woo woo....
Old Mrs. Liu looked at Yaoyao who was sleeping soundly and thought that children are just children.
Just go to bed when you say you want to.
The next morning, Yue Yuan took a letter and started reading.
I made a sudden decision to go to the provincial capital.
I discussed the situation with Old Lady Liu and explained it to her. She nodded with understanding.
Now is the day when Yuan Laosi and his friends are taking the exam. Maybe they can meet Yuan Laosi and his friends in the provincial capital.
After breakfast, everyone packed up and started heading towards the provincial capital.
Yaoyao, who was still sleeping soundly, didn't know that they would soon meet Magistrate Jiang.
Magistrate Jiang, who was receiving a distinguished guest from the capital, had no idea that his mansion was about to suffer another disaster.
They chatted and laughed with the nobles in the capital, drank fine wine, and discussed which of the scholars who came to the capital to take the exam would win the title of scholar.
"Hahaha, which student have you chosen this time as the one you want to train?" Prefect Jiang looked at Jiang Youcheng in front of him while drinking.
Jiang Youcheng waved his hand and took a sip of wine, "It's still early."
"What does the higher-ups mean?" Magistrate Jiang couldn't help but ask.
"The higher-ups meant to first observe the provincial students. This time, I'm not the only one here. Others have also been sent to other places by the higher-ups to observe the provincial students." Jiang Youcheng replied.
"This time the commotion is so big, aren't you afraid that the emperor will find out?" After what happened during that period, Magistrate Jiang couldn't help but worry.
Jiang Youcheng smiled, with full confidence on his face.
"The people sent this time were exactly those sent by the Emperor. How could they possibly discover our motives?"
Governor Jiang finally felt relieved...
"Then I congratulate you on finding your ideal candidate this time."
At this time, the two of them were unaware that a great disaster was quietly approaching...
Yaoyao woke up from her sleep and looked out the car window. Her chubby hands were tightly grasping a piece of sweet and soft corn, and her little mouth was stuffed full.
He looked at the scenery outside the window with his big round eyes, scratched his head, and looked at Old Lady Liu with a puzzled look.
"Grandma, this doesn't seem like the way home?"
Old Lady Liu placed the husked corn in Yue'er's hands, raised her head and reached out to brush away the strands of hair that were stuck to Yaoyao's face. She replied, "Young Master Yue told me today that he had something to deal with in the city. I thought your grandfather and the others should be in the city by now, so I wanted to go see them and bring them some delicious food."
Yaoyao looked out the window with her big round eyes. No wonder she felt that this road was becoming more and more familiar. It turned out to be the road to the provincial capital.
A plan suddenly came to my mind.
I just don’t know whether Magistrate Jiang’s warehouse is fully stocked.
Old Lady Liu discussed with Yaoyao quietly, "Yaoyao, can you bring out a few chickens and ducks? There are still several days before the provincial examination. Make them into salted chicken and salted duck. They can be kept for a longer time. Your father and the others can eat them directly when they want, and it can also provide some nutrition."
Reading is the most brain-intensive thing, more tiring than working, and it is really impossible not to eat something nutritious.
"Well, grandma, I still have a lot in my space. I have to find time to release some of them." Yaoyao nodded and released a few chickens and ducks from the space.
Xiao Hei immediately jumped off the carriage and ran towards the chickens and ducks.
Cluck cluck cluck........
Quack quack quack......
Suddenly there was a commotion in the woods, and people were rushing towards the carriage.
Ling'er looked at the chickens and ducks being chased by Xiao Hei with a look of surprise, and said in amazement: "Wow, Xiao Hei is so amazing, look at these chickens and ducks, they are so big, a chicken must weigh five pounds, right? The big ducks can't run fast."
Guoan knew where these chickens and ducks came from, and only Yaoyao had such fat chickens and ducks.
You can tell where the chickens and ducks come from at a glance.
Yueyuan, Ali stopped the carriage and watched the chickens and ducks hit the tree trunks.
They kicked their legs twice and died...
Old Lady Liu pretended to get off the carriage and exclaimed in a surprised tone, "What's going on with these chickens and ducks? Why are they committing suicide together? It's such a pity to see one of them die."
Looking at Ali who was stunned beside him.
"Ah Li, hurry up and pick up these chickens and ducks. I'll go boil some water and pluck their feathers while they're still hot."
What's so surprising? It's not like I haven't encountered this before.
Ali was not shocked. He encountered the same situation the last time he escaped with the Yuan family.
Wild boars, wild sheep, pheasants and wild ducks ran into tree trunks and died.
When he heard Old Lady Liu calling him, he had already run over to pick up pheasants and wild ducks.
Ali looked at the pheasants and wild ducks in his hands and felt that they looked very familiar.
Why do this chicken and duck look so much like the ones I saw last time?
Just like the pheasants and wild ducks that committed mass suicide outside Lihua Village.
Yue Yuan had a smile on his face, and he knew very clearly where these pheasants and ducks came from.
"This chicken and duck is really big. It just looks a little familiar."
Yaoyao ignored him.
Some things are better left unsaid, there is no point in speaking them out loud.
Old Lady Liu took Ling'er and Guoan to collect dry firewood, took out a big pot from under the carriage and started to boil water.
After boiling the water, Ali was responsible for plucking the hair.
While plucking the feathers, he looked at Old Lady Liu and said, "Auntie, how do we cook these chickens and ducks?"
My saliva was almost flowing when I spoke.
Mrs. Liu: "Take a chicken and make spicy chicken, take a duck and make ginger fried duck, and make a bowl of fish soup."
Old Mrs. Liu took a few chickens and ducks, wiped them dry with a cloth, took out a can of salt and began to carefully apply salt evenly on the chickens and ducks.
Then put it in a basket.
The first step of making salted chicken and salted duck is done.
Marinate for two days and it will be tasty.
At noon, everyone had a hearty lunch.
The air was filled with a pungent spicy smell and the sound of Shashasha.
night--
Before midnight, Yaoyao first stuck her head out to look at Yueyuan who was closing his eyes, and deliberately made some noise to attract Yueyuan's attention.
"Brother, I'll take you to a good place." Yaoyao whispered to Guoan.
Yaoyao thought the voice was soft, but in fact, every word she said penetrated Yueyuan's ears.
Yue Yuan's ears twitched.
"What good place?" Guoan asked with a puzzled look on his face, not understanding what was going on.
"Prefect Jiang." Yaoyao looked over like a thief, saw Yueyuan, and whispered close to Guoan's ear: "That's it... There are so many..."
What's there?
Yue Yuan didn't understand.
Thinking about what was said in the letter, Yue Yuan felt that he should go with them.
After they all left, Yue Yuan opened his eyes, took a look at the barrier that Yaoyao had set up in advance, stood up and followed Yaoyao from a distance.
Xiao Hei flew fast and slow. Every time Yue Yuan felt that he was about to lose him, he could see Xiao Hei's snow-white tail.
When they were almost at the provincial capital, Yaoyao, Xiaohei and the others were nowhere to be seen.
At this time, there were two people and three beasts lying on the roof of Magistrate Jiang's house.
Guoan looked at the empty warehouse below and looked at Yaoyao with a puzzled look.
"Sister, this is the good stuff you mentioned, but there's nothing in it?"
"Nothing is the best." Yaoyao covered her mouth and smiled, then filled the empty warehouse below with gold, silver and jewelry.
"Hug Monkey, that's enough." Yaoyao estimated the time and said to Hug Monkey.
Baobaohou felt a little distressed that this warehouse full of gold, silver and jewelry was going to be given away for nothing.
