"Ahem~ Well, I have something else to do and I'll leave first while you guys chat." Look how considerate she is!
Fu Yunchen looked at her eyebrows and pursed his thin lips slightly, "Going up the mountain to pick tea leaves?"
Mu Run said: "Yes, now is a good time. In a few days they will become ordinary leaves. These are the tea pickers that Sister Cai helped me find. We will go down the mountain in the next half hour."
"It's up to you." Fu Yunchen raised his hand and put the hat on her head, "Don't drop it this time."
"I know." Mu Run didn't resist his hat, and it happened to be necessary. He adjusted the comfort of the hat, and then left with Sister Cai and ten girls. As for Bao Chan, the straight eyes probably
I couldn't see her anymore, so I didn't say hello.
After Mu Run led the people away, Fu Yunchen said to Baochan: "I know you, the courtesan of Liu Yue Tower in Yangzhou City, Mai Jichang spent 30,000 taels of silver to redeem your life."
Baochan's eyebrows were full of charm, "Does the leader of the village dislike my concubine?"
Fu Yunchen smiled and said nothing, his eyes were wandering and light, and it was completely impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Baochan became more and more shy and said: "The owner of Mai Village only redeemed my body. In fact, I have never touched my body. I am still a virgin."
"Oh~" Fu Yunchen said playfully, and he couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.
Manager Yang learned that Fu Yunchen had returned to Yihua Garden and hurriedly came over to wait for orders. However, he happened to see Fu Yunchen talking to Baochan, and he immediately retreated.
Fu Yunchen stopped him, "Lao Yang."
Manager Yang sneaked back and asked, "What are your orders from the village master?"
Fu Yunchen said: "Send a few skilled people to go up the mountain with my wife."
Manager Yang said: "Don't worry, village leader, I have already made arrangements for you."
Fu Yunchen nodded, then turned and left.
Upon seeing this, Baochan hurriedly wanted to call Fu Yunchen, but was stopped by Manager Yang's look.
"What's the matter with Yang Guan?"
"The leader of the village has an unpredictable temperament. Since he has not said anything, Miss Bao should stay calm."
"...Yes, thank you, Manager Yang, for reminding me." Baochan took out a banknote from her sleeve, "I have to ask Manager Yang to take care of me in the future."
"Miss Bao, you're welcome. If you have any questions, just ask me. I'll do my best." Steward Yang did not accept the cashier's check.
Seeing that he refused to accept it, Baochan had no choice but to collect the banknote again.
Manager Yang bowed and left.
Baochan raised her eyes and looked at Zhengxiangyuan, a strange color flashed in her eyes.
…
Hongmi carried a basket of sweet potatoes up Chongyang Mountain.
While climbing the stone steps on the mountain road, I met a young woman carrying a baggage and crying as she came down the mountain.
Hongmi was curious for a moment and stopped her, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Mo Xiaowan's eyes were red and she said aggrievedly: "I was driven down the mountain."
"Ah? You are from the village." Hongmi was surprised, "Why?"
"I want you to be troublesome." Mo Xiaowan suddenly glared at her, then picked up her baggage and continued walking down the mountain.
Hongmi blinked, asking for trouble, "Sister, be careful, the mountain road is steep."
Noila Mo was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Hongmi went up Chongyi Peak to find Guanshi Yang and handed the sweet potatoes to him.
Manager Yang had the sweet potatoes delivered to Zhengxiang Garden, and then rewarded them with a small bunch of red rice and copper coins.
The reason why Manager Yang asked the inn to send sweet potatoes was because Mu Run happened to have a dish of shredded sweet potatoes when she was eating. She ate them all. Manager Yang thought that Mu Run liked to eat them, so she asked the inn to send them again.
Come here.
"Thank you, Manager Yang. If there is anything else I need to send in the future, just ask for it."
"Okay, haha."
"Manager Yang, let me ask, Madam, is...is she okay?" This was Hongmi's main purpose of coming up the mountain, just to know how Mu Run was doing on the mountain.
Manager Yang replied: "Madam is busy making tea now. She took people up the mountain to pick tea leaves early in the morning."
"Picking tea leaves?" Hongmi looked up at the mountain curiously, "Can I go up and have a look?"
"Of course, it hasn't been long since I went up there."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Manager Yang nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said to Hongmi: "Shopkeeper Hong, Mr. Mo's granddaughter Mo Xiaowan is going to the inn these two days to do some work. Please take care of her."
"It's okay to take care of her, but who is she?"
"Mo Lao and the village owner have an old relationship. They seem to be old servants from the past, and now they are taking care of themselves in Chongyang Mountain. Mo Xiaowan is the granddaughter adopted by Mo Lao, but she is as close as a close relative."
"Since you have such a good relationship with the boss, why go to the inn? Isn't it better to stay in the village?" Hongmi hit the point with one sentence.
A trace of surprise flashed in Manager Yang's eyes, but then he smiled more kindly, "To be honest, Miss Xiaowan did something wrong. Originally, the village master wanted to arrange a marriage for her, but Miss Xiaowan was unwilling.
Mr. Mo then begged the village leader to let her stay at the inn for a while."
Hongmi's mind flashed back to the crying woman he met when he went up the mountain...
"I understand, thank you, Manager Yang."
"Don't be so polite. Just like Yang Yang, just call me uncle."
"Okay, Uncle Yang." Hongmi responded with a smile, and then he couldn't wait to go up the mountain to find Mu Run.
Manager Yang happily stroked his beard and looked at Hongmi, who was thin but skinny but had nimble hands and feet and said, "He is a good boy."
*********
The lush Chongyi Peak is surrounded by clouds and fog at the top of the mountain. The trickling water in the forest merges into a quiet stream, twisting and turning among the mountains and peaks.
Mu Run held a handful of clear mountain spring water in both hands and took a sip, cooling it to quench her thirst.
"How can Madam drink raw cold water? This slave has brought cooked water." Mrs. Cai said anxiously, holding the water bag.
Mu Run waved his hand, "It's okay, this water is clean. It's just that when you drink it, it doesn't seem sweeter and more spiritual than what you drank in the cave."
Cai gave the water bag to Mu Run, "Water is not all the same. Where there is any sweetness or charm, it is all colorless and tasteless."
Mu Run shook his head and said, "It's really different. Sister Cai, try the taste of this mountain spring. It's very different from the boiled water you boil."
Cai said: "I know this. When I was a child, I always drank cold water, coveting the cold and refreshing breath. As a result..."
Mu Run looked at her, "What's wrong?"
Mrs. Cai sighed, "After I got married, I couldn't give birth. The doctor said that I had a cold body and couldn't conceive a child. I think it was caused by not paying attention to the cold and heat when I was a child. My husband's family divorced me. If it weren't for Bian Yun
We were taken into the stronghold, but now we don’t know what our slaves have become.”
"Body cold can be cured. And I can't have children. Maybe there's something wrong with the man. Why is Sister Cai the only one to blame?" Mu Run felt sympathy but was not angry on her behalf, "It's so unfair!"
"Sister Run—Sister Run—" Hongmi ran over panting.
Mu Run was very surprised when he saw her at first, "Hongmi? When did you come?" She heard from Fu Yunchen that Hongmi was arranged by him to be the female shopkeeper at the inn at the foot of Chongyang Mountain, and she also took charge of her.
Happy.
