Childbirth System: Become the Goddess of Mercy who grants children to the male protagonist!
Chapter 79 The Little Eunuch Thrown into the Mass Grave 4
The next morning, Xu Fu hurriedly brought Xiao Hua to the escort agency.
Fortunately, they paid a considerable sum, and the escort agency specially reserved a carriage for the two children.
Although the space inside isn't large, there's plenty of room for two children to lie down side by side...
After Xu Fu laid out the quilt, he let Xiao Hua get into the carriage.
It was Xiaohua's first time riding in a carriage, but she didn't get carsick; she kept peeking out the window...
But in less than half a day, she wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
The carriage swayed and rocked, often bouncing people up and down.
Even Xiaohua's great enthusiasm couldn't overcome her physical exhaustion.
Xu Fu piled their clothes together to make a pillow, and then let Xiao Hua lie down on it.
"You should lie down and rest; that will make you more comfortable—"
"I'll call you after we stop to rest."
Xiao Hua didn't refuse and obediently lay down, and soon she was snoring!
"Being able to eat and sleep well is a blessing!" Xu Fu sighed lazily.
But he also needs to keep a close eye on the team's movements—
In case anyone in the caravan tries to harm the two children, Xu Fu can fight back in advance...
Fortunately, this escort agency was trustworthy; after two days, they showed no intention of harming Xu Fu and his companion.
However, they didn't treat the two well, regarding them merely as objects...
Xiaohua had been rocking in the carriage for three days and had already gotten used to the bumpy ride.
Every day, he and Xu Fu were stuck in a cramped space, staring at each other, and the days became increasingly boring.
"How about I teach you to read?" Xu Fu spent one point to buy a copy of the *Three Character Classic* from the system.
He waved to the little flower.
Xiao Hua's eyes lit up, and she immediately moved closer to Xu Fu.
"Brother, you can even teach me to read?! That's amazing—"
Xu Fu accepted the praise, opened the book, pointed to the words, and had Xiao Hua read them aloud.
The journey took more than half a month, and Xu Fu finished teaching the entire Three Character Classic on the last day.
Fortunately, Xiaohua, as the female lead, possesses a degree of intelligence.
Aside from not being able to write, she could still memorize the entire book perfectly.
Furthermore, the meanings of the annotations that Xu Fu gave her were easy for her to understand.
"Little Flower is so clever!" Xu Fu patted her head and praised her sincerely.
"Once we've settled down, I'll have a female tutor come and teach you—"
"Then you'll be able to speak and write."
"Thank you, brother!" This time, Xiaohua truly admired him from the bottom of her heart.
Previously, Xiaohua still harbored some doubts about the life of wealth and luxury that Xu Fu described.
After spending more than half a month together, all my doubts have completely disappeared!
Moreover, the little girl's clear and melodious reading voice often earned praise from the bodyguards.
My former timidity has disappeared, and I've become more cheerful.
After arriving in Jinling City, Xu Fu settled the fees with the bodyguards before taking Xiao Hua to an inn to stay.
"Brother, what are we going to do in the next two days?"
Having arrived in unfamiliar territory, Xiaohua felt somewhat uneasy.
Moreover, while Jinling City was indeed beautiful, Xu Fu spent money like water.
Xiaohua is afraid that one day they will be reduced to begging again...
Xu Fu saw through the other party's intentions at a glance, but he did not rush to show his abilities.
He patted the other person's head and said, "Let's get some rest these next couple of days."
"You've been stuck in the carriage for almost half a month, aren't you tired?"
"Let's talk about it after we've rested."
Xu Fu kept his word and stayed at the inn with Xiao Hua for two whole days.
Only then did he lead his people out to wander the streets and alleys.
Seven more days passed, and just as Xiaohua couldn't help but jump up and down in frustration...
Xu Fu finally made up his mind, "I want to experience what the ancient imperial examination system is like—"
During the time Xu Fu and Xiao Hua strolled around, they discovered the city of Jinling.
The market for traveling merchants has reached saturation, and there are wealthy people everywhere.
Xu Fu and Xiao Hua are newcomers; getting a share of the spoils from them would be as difficult as climbing to heaven...
Instead of blindly rushing into ancient commercial districts, it's better to strengthen oneself.
Otherwise, if Xu Fu were to use those modern techniques, his health bar would probably drop significantly...
Since ancient times, the common people have never fought against officials. Rather than live in fear, Xu Fu would rather climb up himself.
Once he made a name for himself in the entire city of Jinling, the second-generation elites of other families dared not provoke him.
Xu Fu, having identified his target, immediately sought out brokers, intending to locate the school near the private academy.
I bought a house, intending to settle down here.
Upon hearing that a two-courtyard house cost 500 taels, Xiaohua immediately shook her head vigorously.
"It's a bit expensive, but students at this age need to consider their reputation."
"Living around here is relatively safe," Xu Fu reassured the other person.
With a wave of his hand, he added another 300 taels of silver, exchanging it for a large three-courtyard house.
He directly registered the property deed in his own name and then had someone hang the Xu family's plaque on the main gate.
"Brother, it's just the two of us, we don't need to live in such a big house, do we?"
Xiaohua looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.
Xu Fu chuckled, then looked at Xiao Hua with a hint of pity.
"You'll find out later—" Xu Fu replied meaningfully.
When there are more people in the future, there will be enough room for everyone, and it will also be very convenient to go to school...
Isn't this just a modern-day school district property?!
Moreover, there was a famous academy nearby, which Xu Fu would attend after he left the private school.
If you change direction and walk for less than half an hour, you will reach your destination.
Moreover, Xu Fu planned not to move to another place until he became a successful candidate in the imperial examinations.
To avoid serving two masters, Xu Fu bought another group of servants from the brokerage firm.
There were ten guards who also did some manual labor.
Ten cleaning ladies were assigned to sweep and sweep, and also to guard the inner quarters.
Five maids attended to Xu Fu and Xiao Hua's needs for food, clothing, and shelter...
As for the housekeeper, Xu Fu specifically chose a family of six with elderly and young members.
The housekeeper looked to be around 40 years old, and he was raising two young parents, a wife, and a son and a daughter to make a living.
The broker said that the master family had fallen on hard times, which was why they were being sold off.
Xu Fu didn't entirely trust them either; as soon as he got their indentures, he sent them directly into his spatial dimension.
The steward was in charge of the entire Xu residence, and also oversaw the front yard and ten guards.
If they harbored any ill intentions, Xu Fu could have easily dealt with them even without the steward's warning...
As for the housekeeper's weaknesses, aren't they his parents and his two children?!
The butler's father was in charge of guarding the main gate, and the butler's mother was in charge of the kitchen.
The housekeeper's wife was in charge of all the affairs in the backyard.
As for the housekeeper's children, the woman served Xiaohua closely.
The boy became Xu Fu's page and went to the academy with him.
Xu Fuhua arranged everything in three days, even having the housekeeper hire a female tutor for Xiaohua.
The female tutor should train Xiaohua to be a well-bred young lady.
Only then did he take his page and go to the private school to study.
