Chapter 156 Letter to the Capital
Chapter 156 Letter to the Capital
On the shore of Taiqing Lake in Shangjing City.
"Uncle Hua, please read the letter from the master."
Ling Zhou came to the stable in the yard with the letter in his hand.
At this time, Uncle Hua was combing the horse's hair.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and slowly stood up.
"What? Brother, you said the master sent a letter?" Yun Shu just heard the news when he came in from outside.
When she shouted, Uncle Hua realized that it was really a letter from the master.
He hurried forward, grabbed Ling Zhou's arm and asked, what did the master say in the letter?
"My master asked me to continue the tasks assigned by my master before. As for the shop, I don't need to open it for the time being. My master also asked Uncle Hua to buy some people in Shangjing City, whether they are embroiderers or some skilled craftsmen."
Uncle Hua sucked his teeth with a hiss. Before he could say anything, Yun Shu blinked and furrowed her brows:
"You might be able to come across one or two embroiderers, but it's really hard to find skilled craftsmen in the embroidery industry!"
Ling Zhou also nodded at this time. It was indeed true, but since the master had given the order, he would just try his best to accomplish it.
"Did the master say when he would need her?"
"The master said there's no rush and asked us to search slowly first."
Uncle Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief. If that was the case, it would be easy to handle. He told Lingzhou to go back to the farm first and get them out as soon as possible so that the master could use them sooner.
"I know that. I'll leave the rest to Uncle Hua. I'll go back to the village first."
After Ling Zhou finished speaking, he told his sister to feed the Saker Falcon, and that she and Uncle Hua would also write the reply letter, and let the Saker Falcon go back as soon as it had rested enough.
"Master is truly a remarkable person. This Saker Falcon is incredibly difficult to tame, let alone deliver a message."
After Uncle Hua finished speaking, Yun Shu curiously approached the Saker Falcon and looked at it carefully.
This is the first time she has seen it!
"Uncle Hua, let me reply to the master. What do you want to say?"
She got up and ran towards the house, took out her pen, ink, paper and inkstone and went to the stone table in the yard.
"Uncle Hua fed the Saker Falcon and came to the table. He saw the girl had already written a full sheet of letter."
Uncle Hua shook his head and laughed, then reminded her to just report the important matters to her master.
Yun Shu then realized that she had written a lot and was a bit long-winded. She stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
Uncle Hua asked her to write down a few important things, and these all needed the master's decision.
Soon the letter was finished. Yun Shu folded the letter and turned to look at the Saker Falcon in the yard.
"Uncle Hua, I feel like this Saker Falcon is very intelligent and can understand what we are saying."
After hearing her words, Uncle Hua nodded, and saw that the Saker Falcon actually came in front of them.
"Haha...you're quite a clever little creature. Now that you've rested, return this to the master. You'll have to be careful on the long journey."
Uncle Hua rolled the letter into the bamboo tube as he spoke.
Yun Shu stood aside and watched it flap its wings and fly high, flying along Taiqing Lake towards the outside of Shangjing City.
She muttered that she really wanted to go to Ruyang City to see her master...
"Well, that day will come. Go pack up and come with me to the pawnshops in the city."
"Hey, I'll pack it up right away, Uncle Hua, wait for me!"
Yunshu ran into the house holding the inkstone.
Uncle Hua laughed and shook his head, then picked up the broom and started cleaning the yard.
At this time, Qu Jingyao, who was far away in Lingshui Village, was inspecting the cotton fields with Baiguo.
In the past two days, my brother and the servants in the mansion have been watering the fields. She mixed the water with spiritual spring water so that the cotton can grow faster.
"Master, what exactly is this cotton?"
Baiguo looked at how much importance his master attached to this thing and asked curiously.
Qu Jingyao raised the corner of her lips: "This is cotton! The quilt in my room is soft and warm, right? It's made of cotton, and those cotton cloths are also made of cotton."
Qu Jingyao told her everything, which made Baiguo realize what kind of impact this cotton would have on Yuanshao Country and even other countries in the future!
"Master, this thing is too important." Bai Guo was a little incoherent and didn't know how to say it.
Qu Jingyao nodded silently, raised the corner of her lips and said, "This is why your master, I, fenced off this wasteland and the yard together."
After she finished speaking, she looked into the distance and saw that her brother seemed to be practicing martial arts with Cang Yan in the woods not far away.
Looking at her brother with his bare arms, she smiled. Maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing to leave her brother to Cang Yan.
"Master, someone is coming to the master's house. Madam asked this old servant to call you back."
Butler Tian was running out of breath.
Qu Jingyao was stunned for a moment, then she let out a sigh of relief and began to ask who had come to the house and why her mother had called her back so anxiously?
"This, this is better for the master to go back and look at it himself."
Butler Tian said with some embarrassment.
This made Qu Jingyao and his servant even more confused.
She walked slowly towards the house.
At this time, in the house, Liu's lips trembled as she watched Yue Niang sobbing loudly.
"Yue Niang, please stop crying. This person is still..."
Liu persuaded Yue Niang, and looked out the door from time to time, hoping that Yaoyao would come back soon.
"Husband, madam, the master is still outside in the carriage."
The person who spoke was Qingfeng, Li Jun's subordinate.
"Mom? I'm back." Qu Jingyao heard crying from inside from afar, and walked in quickly in two steps at a time.
When Liu saw her daughter coming back, she felt relieved and explained that the person who came was her uncle's subordinate.
"I have met the eldest lady. The master returned to his hometown to visit relatives a few days ago, but was told that the lady and her son had left their hometown long ago.
The master then worked tirelessly day and night to follow the clues of his wife and returned to Ruyang City, but he was ambushed on the way and fell off a cliff.
Fortunately, there was a river below the cliff, and I was rescued by a kind-hearted person, otherwise I really wouldn’t have waited for my subordinates to come and rescue me…”
Qingfeng's words made Qu Jingyao fall into deep thought. Was she asking about her uncle?
"In the carriage outside the door, the master is still unconscious."
After hearing Qingfeng's words, Qu Jingyao asked again how he found this place and how he knew that his aunt was in Lingshui Village?
"To be honest, Miss, the master used the Li family's connections to find out the whereabouts of not only the lady and the two young masters, but also the eldest master. It's a pity..."
Qu Jingyao was stunned. Is the Li family’s network so powerful?
Qingfeng looked at her puzzled expression and explained anxiously that he would have to wait until the master woke up and then let the master tell the eldest lady.
I guess the eldest lady knows very little about the Li family.
"Baiguo, have Dongqing harness the carriage to fetch Xiaoyang and his brother. Tell Steward Tian to open the gate and have the carriage drive directly into the house to pick up my uncle."
Bai Guo leaned forward and replied, "Yes!"
Qingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu was trying to persuade Yue Niang, and her crying gradually subsided...
