The weather outside is getting hotter and cooler day by day, and the rice in the fields has grown new seedlings, and the peppers have been harvested.
Although Xianyun Pavilion's business is not as good as expected, many people come occasionally, and Yun Miaomiao earns a lot of money every month.
As farming was busy these days, Yun Miaomiao closed the Xianyun Pavilion and asked them to come back in the autumn.
In the past few days, Yun Miaomiao took Yunya and the others to pick peppers in the fields. After picking them, they took them back to Aunt Liu to wash, and then took them to the yard to dry.
At night, Yun Miaomiao put the dried peppers into the pickle jar prepared in advance. After loading, Yunya and Liu Erzhu carried them to the backyard together.
The backyard was originally a spacious flat space left by Yun Miaomiao, but now it is filled with pickle jars. When the wind blows, the hot and sour taste in the air becomes even more tempting.
Aunt Liu has been working at Yun Miaomiao's house for a while. She knows that the kimchi is delicious and she can handle it neatly. Shopkeeper Xiaoyun is so kind to them. Not only does she lead them to eat white rice every day, but she also
Her son has grown into a big fat boy, how could she not be satisfied?
Lu Yang brought Lu Huahua to give Yun Miaomiao an account, and happened to encounter a group of people speeding past on the street.
Lu Huahua hid behind Lu Yang and looked at the direction the people were leaving, "Brother, what are they doing?"
Lu Yang glanced at the backs of the group of people. This direction could only lead to the academy, or to Yun Miaomiao's Xianyun Pavilion.
Xianyun Pavilion does not accept guests, so these people probably went to the academy.
"I don't know. I guess I went to the academy to find someone." Lu Yang glanced at the sky and saw that it was getting late. "Let's quickly go to Sister Yun to make an inventory. I heard from Yun Ya that they have been collecting money from the fields these days.
Chili Pepper and Sister Yun are both tanned a lot, and we are used to doing heavy work, so we went over to see if we could help."
Lu Huahua nodded. Sister Yun is such a good-looking person, so she should be kept in the house, but not exposed to the sun outside.
The pace of the two of them was also much faster, and they reached Xianyun Pavilion in a short time.
Lu Yang and Lu Huahua walked to the door and saw several horses standing at the door. The styles of the saddles were exactly the same as those they met on the street.
"Isn't this the group of people we met just now?" Lu Huahua pointed at the horses grazing, "Are they here to see Sister Yun?"
Lu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he handed the account book to Lu Huahua, "Get your things and follow me. Don't go anywhere. Let's go in and take a look."
This was the first time Lu Huahua heard her brother's nervous tone. She hummed, followed him obediently, and walked in lightly.
As soon as the two of them entered, they saw Yun Miaomiao and the group of people facing each other face to face. He glanced at the hoe beside him, picked it up without thinking, and then rushed directly to Yun Miaomiao to unite the front.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Yun Miaomiao was startled, and when she saw clearly the appearance of the person coming, she immediately laughed.
"Lu Yang, what are you doing?"
When Lu Yang saw Yun Miaomiao smiling, he glanced at the big men opposite him. They looked at him as if they were watching a joke. The courage he had just ignited was instantly poured with cold water.
"Sister Yun, my brother saw that these people were fierce and fearful that they would bully you, so he did this." Lu Huahua noticed something unusual and explained quickly.
Yun Miaomiao smiled, reached out and took the hoe from Lu Yang's hand, "They are looking for me again. You go to the fields to help Yun Ya, he is already going crazy with his work."
Lu Yang saw that she didn't seem to be joking, so he followed her line of sight and looked into the ground. He saw Yunya bent over, with a bamboo basket on his right side, a bamboo hat on his head, and a intact chili pepper wherever he passed.
All that's left of the tree is its bare poles.
Lu Yang, "..."
Lu Huahua, "..."
In order for Yunya not to continue to plant pepper trees in the field, Lu Yang and Lu Huahua put down their things and went to the field.
After the two left, Yun Miaomiao put down the hoe in her hand.
"He asked you to come?"
"After Madam returned, she threatened her with death. The young master refused to agree to the marriage with the Su family, life or death. Together with Madam, she told the Su family's legitimate daughter about your stay here. On the surface, Su Wanqing is from a dignified and skillful family.
The eldest lady is actually an arrogant and domineering ruthless person behind the scenes. The young master is afraid that something might happen to you, so he asked us to protect you."
Qingyang paused and said hesitantly, "Moreover, there are many people in the capital who are the master's enemies. The master also told the people in the academy not to let the people in the capital know, otherwise it will cause a catastrophe, so I
Stay here to protect you, girl, they are going up the mountain."
Yun Miaomiao knew that Gu Fengqing was afraid that he would be really cruel this time. The person who framed him for trouble last time has not been found yet, and now he has more burdens.
If you fall out with the Su family, you will have another enemy.
"The people on the mountain are important. You must protect them well. The mountains are high here and the emperor is far away, but there might as well be people who are caring." Yun Miaomiao knew what Gu Fengqing meant, "But fortunately, the people on the mountain are from the second generation of aristocratic families.
Ancestor, most of them have never seen the true face of the noble man. It is difficult for people at the bottom of the mountain to go up the mountain. As long as the noble man does not come down from the mountain, everything will be easy."
Qingyang nodded, "Young Master means the same thing. We will prevent noble people from going down the mountain. There are dangers everywhere at the bottom of the mountain, but it is safer on the mountain. We came all the way from the capital. The more we go to Ruizhou, the more people fleeing the famine."
The more people there are, the more refugees will be robbing their homes, so we are rushing all the way non-stop, for fear that if you have some mishaps, we will not be able to explain it to the young master."
Yun Miaomiao was funny. Seeing that it was getting late, he and Qingyang sent the people to the foot of the mountain. "This is my handwritten letter. You can give it to the master guarding the gate. They will give this to the dean. The dean will tell you
I have arranged identities for you, and the protection in the open is far less than the protection in the dark. If it is not absolutely necessary, you don’t need to interfere in the affairs of the nobles, just let them be ordinary people."
Several people nodded, they were all smart people, and they immediately understood what Yun Miaomiao meant.
"We know that it is easy to hide from an open gun and hard to guard against a hidden arrow. Don't worry, girl, we will definitely protect the noble man and the young master."
Yun Miaomiao nodded, waved goodbye, and walked back with Qingyang.
The sky has gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun is still a little bright, shining on the ground to form a bright path.
"Is he okay?" Yun Miaomiao asked.
Qingyang pursed his lower lip and did not answer immediately. The young master said that as long as it was something Miss Yun wanted to know, she must let him know everything.
He thought for a moment and then said, "Young Master is not very good."
"Huh?" Yun Miaomiao stopped and turned to look at him, "Isn't he the most favored person in the Gu family? How could he have a bad life?"
Gu Fengqing is the most distinguished eldest son of the Gu family, but the back house has never been stable, let alone the Gu family, the first aristocratic family.
Gu Fengqing's father, Mr. Gu, has three sons, which means that Gu Fengqing is the eldest. He also has two younger brothers and countless younger sisters. Originally, after Gu Fengqing died, the two younger brothers had the opportunity to become the next generation.
As the head of the Gu family, who would know that Gu Fengqing has returned after disappearing for more than half a year?
Not to mention the Gu family, there is also a surging undercurrent in the court. Gu Fengqing used to have good relations with the prince's faction, but now the prince...the prince's faction has naturally suffered a blow. With the emperor's favoritism, those people are more cautious in doing things.
Being so unscrupulous, Gu Fengqing naturally received a lot of repercussions.
Qingyang thought for a while, "The Gu family is complicated, and there is pressure from the wife. Naturally, I am very upset. There are constant disputes in the court. In order to have a smooth spring next year, the young master has touched the interests of many people, and many people have already moved against the young master.
Before I left the capital, someone lured the young master out of the city to assassinate him. If the young master had not been injured, he would have come here to see you, Miss Yun, this time."
"What?" Yun Miaomiao's heart trembled and she took a breath of air, "He is injured? Is it serious?"
Qingyang shook his head, "The injury is not serious, but the plan has been disrupted. However, the young master has reorganized the situation. Even if they are jumping around, they will not dare to cause trouble before spring. Don't worry, girl."
"It's okay." Yun Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief slowly before taking another step and walking back.
As for the horses left at the door, Yun Miaomiao took them back to the stables and raised them as ordinary horses.
