Chapter 311

To go or not to go?

Yundou and her family wanted to leave, Eunuch Chen also wanted to leave, Lord An's family also wanted to leave, but Eunuch Zhang refused to leave. He volunteered to guard the royal tomb.

The child didn't believe that he liked Prince Jia so much.

Eunuch Chen also said: "He is not guarding the royal tomb."

If it wasn't the royal tomb, then it was something else. The only thing the child could think of was the girl surnamed Lu and the vegetable patch in the yard.

But Eunuch Zhang let her go wherever she wanted.

Without her, there would be no one to grow vegetables, so it was obvious that what he was asked to leave behind was not a vegetable field.

"Is that for Aunt Lu?"

The child asked without hesitation, and was even prepared to be beaten.

Zhang Fengci was indeed a little annoyed, but when he looked at the child's increasingly tall stature, he felt that she had grown into a big girl and it was not appropriate to use violence against her.

So he got angry for a moment, then lay back down, sitting in his rocking chair, warming himself by the fire and basking in the sun, closing his eyes and ignoring her.

The child brought a small stool and sat next to him, holding his chin with his hand and looking worried.

Eunuch Zhang had already spoken, and the princess and Prince Qingning, the eldest son, had also agreed. It was too late to change their minds, so no matter what the reason was, it didn't matter anymore.

He won't leave anyway.

Do people become more stubborn as they get older?

This is the case with Master and the others, and also with Eunuch Zhang.

Although Eunuch Chen was too lazy to move, he was still young. Although the new fiefdom was a little small, it was not far from the imperial capital, so he was happy to follow.

Lord An was the Right Chief Clerk, and he shared the same honor and disgrace with his masters, so naturally he had to go with them. Sister An Xi stayed behind, and she continued to work as a constable, doing her job very enthusiastically.

Yundou... Yundou's family all depends on the monthly salary to survive, and the children are the same, but...

"I won't leave either." The child made up his mind.

Zhang Fengci didn't even raise his eyelids and said coldly, "Get out of here right now. I won't support you."

"Who needs you to support me?" The child had already made up his mind. "I'm going to set up a massage parlor while there aren't many strange people here. When I make enough money, I'll open a bathhouse. Lian Li once gave me a book on treating small animals and a recipe book. I'll study while I earn money and use all of it. I'll also plant more delicious and tasty spiritual plants. When more people come here, I'm sure I'll make a fortune. Then I can pay you back and no longer be bossed around by others. I'm sure I'll live a very happy life."

"You're dreaming," Zhang Fengci poured cold water on her without hesitation. "If they really want to make that much money, then shops like that will pop up like mushrooms after rain, with dozens popping up overnight. How could it be your turn?

What about bathhouses? Do you know what spices are used in hot springs? How much do they cost? How many people does a bathhouse need? Forget bathhouses. You might not even be able to run a small stall. If you charge too much, no one will go. If you charge too little, it's still not enough to make a fuss. If a few malicious people cause trouble, you won't even make enough to fight a lawsuit. By then, even if you regret it, it will be useless.

The child didn't like to hear this: "That green part is my intestines too! Besides... I don't know, I can still ask you!"

"I have to go guard the royal mausoleum. I don't have time to care about you."

"It's okay. I can come find you when I'm free. You'll always have time to talk to me, and it's not far away. Aunt Yu and I can rent a small courtyard near the city gate and save some money."

The more the child spoke, the brighter his eyes became.

The more Zhang Fengci listened, the more confused he became. He couldn't help but scold her, "You're like a plaster, sticking on and can't be torn off? Can't you tell the difference between good and bad?"

The child lifted his chin and glanced at him, saying, "I can tell the difference very clearly. It is precisely because I can tell the difference clearly that I know that money is useless."

There are some things that no amount of money can buy back.

"You haven't paid back the money yet, do you have any money?"

Zhang Fengci saw that she was only growing in height but not in brains. Prince Jia was dead and his fiefdom was gone, so no one would make things difficult for the princess and those not-so-bright young men and women. If she followed him, even if she didn't get rich, she could live a stable life. If she stayed, she would just live off her savings.

His little bit of face is of no use.

The kid wouldn't listen to that: "I never wanted money."

The reason she needs money is that the things she encounters require money to do, but she doesn't feel particularly reluctant to spend the money, because once it's gone, it's gone.

So, maybe she could say that this isn't what she wanted?

The child thought uncertainly.

No matter what, she decided to stay.

She also asked Aunt Yu to embroider a beautiful dress for her, and bought some gold flower rouge and gave them to Yundou.

Both of them were a little sad.

Yundou gave her a very beautiful butterfly kite sprinkled with gold powder, just like the one she picked up when she was a child. It cost a lot of money, and her tears were somewhat tinged with heartache.

It's more of a sadness of separation.

"It's going to be windy soon, so remember to fly your kite. It won't look pretty if you leave it out for too long."

The child nodded, and I wanted to tell her that she had to wear clothes too, and the rouge would be useless if it was left on for too long.

But she seemed to need no reminder, she wiped her tears and put on her clothes, applied rouge, and found two hairpins to wear...

By the way, I said: "It would be better if you gave me a pair of shoes, these don't even match."

She cried, and the child's eyes were red: "It's too late. It's too expensive to buy. I can't bear it."

Even if she was willing to give it up, Aunt Yu wouldn't let her. Without work, they couldn't make much money just by washing, sewing and mending, so every penny saved was a penny earned.

If the child hadn't insisted, the clothes and rouge would have been impossible.

Just like Yundou's plan, she originally wanted to sell the house to her children at a lower price. She also gave her some advice, saying that if she didn't have enough money, she could borrow some first, or pawn some things, but never borrow at high interest rates. If she felt embarrassed to ask Mr. Zhang for help, she could also borrow from the monks in the temple. Only with a house could she gain a foothold.

The children are ready to ask.

But her mother sold the house to a relative at a lower price.

They said that if anything happens, it is better to have relatives around when you come back than outsiders.

When Yundou heard what her mother said, she felt uncomfortable all over and had a headache, but there was nothing she could do because the house was not in her name.

Fortunately, the buyer her mother found was not her father's relative, but her mother's maternal relative. He was the kind of relative they had never seen since they were young, even during the holidays. They only knew about this person from occasional chats with their mother, but didn't even know what he looked like. He was also the child of her grandmother's brother.

It was incredible that her mother would think of hiring an ox cart and driving dozens of miles to tell people about such a good thing.

If Yundou knew that her mother could do this, she would rather find a human trafficker to buy it, at least she could make a little more money.

She thought about it belatedly.

It felt like her mother didn't really care about the relatives there, and she did this just to make her unhappy.

Whether it is true or false, there is no point in being too serious.

She waved goodbye to the child, not forgetting to remind him, "You must be more careful in the future. Don't be so naive, and don't let others cheat you. Also... I will send you a letter when I get married. You must come. If you can't come, write me a letter. I can recognize quite a few words now."

"Well, I'll remember that. I'll definitely go when the time comes. Take care of yourself, and... I'm not stupid."

The child stuffed Aunt Yu’s steamed snacks into the cart and also pushed the head into the ox cart.

The face is covered with kidney beans:!

This time she was not sad. She lifted the curtain and was about to curse, but the convoy had already set off, and the people were kneeling on both sides. Yundou could no longer see the child.

Alas... take care!
