Gu Jiangxing was sitting in the carriage and when he heard the commotion outside, the carriage stopped.

He quickly asked what happened.

At this time, Gu Chun rode two steps forward, came to the side of the carriage, lifted the curtain and walked towards Gu Jiang.

"Dad, he is a villager of Daling Village and Xin'an Village."

Hearing this, Gu Jiangxing got out of the carriage.

People in the carriage came to the front to check the situation.

They saw their daughter riding a horse standing at the front.

It was so lively to be surrounded by villagers, asking for help.

"Dad, what happened to the villagers? They are all crying towards the eldest sister. Did the eldest sister do something?"

Gu Qiu looked at the thick crowd in front of him, feeling a little puzzled.

Gu Jiangxing smiled: "Hey, your sister must have been away for too long, and the villagers missed her."

"Oh, it's not long, it's only a few months."

Gu Xia slapped his younger brother on the head and started teasing him: "Haven't you read a book? It's like not seeing each other for one day is like three autumns apart."

Gu Qiu chuckled: "Second sister, look at what you said. From your tone, you know a lot. You have learned a lot. Do you want to come back as the top female scholar?"

Gu Xia rolled her eyes: "My sister is a princess, not a female general protecting the country."

"My brother-in-law is the biggest official here in Yingzhou, and he is also the prince."

"My father is still the Marquis."

"I have so many backers, why should I take the top female exam?"

"Not to mention, women can't take part in the imperial examination, so what if they can?"

"I have reached the end point that most people dream of. I just need to lie down and enjoy life!"

After speaking, he raised his chin.

Gu Qiu was thoughtful.

Gu Xia reminded again: "But you are a boy. If you don't make contributions, you won't be able to get a wife. Haha, just work hard."

Gu Qiu pretended to snort coldly: "As you just said, if I stay in Yingzhou, I can live a good life, so what else can I do?"

"It's okay to establish a career!"

"I'll look back and think about what I want to do in the future."

Gu Xia didn't take it seriously and asked, "Then you don't plan to take the imperial examination?"

Gu Qiu shook his head: "I am studying, as long as I am literate and sensible, I am not interested in taking the scientific examination."

"Besides, even if you pass the scientific examination, or even become a Jinshi, or become an official, you will most likely be separated from your family and be outside all the time."

"I don't want to leave my parents or you."

What he said was what Gu Xia was thinking.

She nodded slightly and echoed: "I don't like to be separated from you outside either."

"Our family needs to be in order."

After the two of them finished speaking, they saw Gu Xue coming from the front and returning to the carriage.

"Sister, what's wrong? What are the villagers doing here?"

The corners of Gu Xue's lips rose: "They came to pick us up, mainly to pick me up."

"I just asked them to go back first and stop blocking the road. They said they wanted to walk back with us."

"Dad, Mom, I'm afraid we can't ride in the carriage, so let's go together."

The county is not far from the village, so walking is no problem.

What's more, the villagers were so enthusiastic, and she hadn't seen them for more than half a year.

Gu Jiangxing and Cheng Ru naturally agreed.

The carriage followed, and they walked in front, followed by the villagers.

As soon as the convoy arrived in Yingzhou, Xiao Jingyi went to do some errands and would return to Daling Village the next day.

Gu Xue walked in front, asking along the way: "Did anything happen in the village during our absence?"

The villagers clamored to report the situation to Gu Xue.

"Village chief, no, princess, general?"

"What should I call you?"

An aunt was confused, and all the villagers laughed, but it was also what they wanted to ask.

There must be a unified title, although these titles are all Gu Xue.

But when everyone shouts the same thing, it feels right.

Gu Xue was also amused by the aunt.

"Of course you called me village chief."

"Hey, okay, village chief, after you left, people from other villages always wanted to enter our village."

"Don't our village have a city wall and a city gate? They can't come in, so they always guard the city gate."

"Or we can stop people from our village on the only way to the town and ask them to take them into Daling Village."

Gu Xue asked suspiciously: "What do they want to do when they come in?"

"Those visiting relatives can enter. Aren't they coming to the village to visit relatives?"

The aunt slapped her thigh and quickly followed everyone's pace, while continuing to talk.

"No, they wanted to come in earlier, but when they ran out of recruits, they just said they came to the village to find relatives."

"There are so many people in our village, and the villagers can't all know which relatives there are, so we let them in."

"However, we arranged for people to follow us from a distance."

"Who would have thought that those people didn't come here to find relatives at all. They just went inside the cannery when they saw it."

"I stopped him and asked him for a long time. He said he meant no harm and that he just wanted to work in the cannery."

"There are too many people coming to the village, and we certainly can't stop them."

"Thankfully there are escorts. Once they stop there, those people won't dare."

At this time, the villagers of Xin'an Village also said: "There are also many people coming to the village to inquire about the cement factory."

Gu Xue nodded to show that she understood.

When people around them see Daling Village and Xin'an Village, these two villages have become wealthy, they must want to have a stable and profitable job like them.

When the time comes, she will vigorously build Snow City and engage in infrastructure construction.

There must be people employed, and those people are also people from Yingzhou and people under Xiao Jingyi's rule.

When the time comes to recruit workers vigorously, everyone can make money.

The group of people walked all the way in the direction of Daling Village. The people walking in the opposite direction on this road saw them and stared at them curiously.

I thought something had happened, there were so many people.

It was only when the villagers explained from time to time that other pedestrians understood what was going on.

Just when Gu Xue thought that the village was quite stable and there were no conflicts, a man spoke.

"Village chief, that's right, there's something else."

Gu Xue glanced at him and said directly: "Well, just say it directly. Looking at your expression, is it not a good thing?"

The man said quickly: "It's just that someone from Beixi Village made trouble."

"Only your relatives, your uncle and the others were kicked out."

Gu Xue's face changed when she heard this.

"What happened to them?"

"They came to our village and said they were your elders and asked you to be filial to them."

"He also said that since you are not here, I will first ask the people in our village to borrow some money, and when you come back, I will ask you to return it to the villagers."

Gu Xue felt funny in her heart: "Oh, someone in the village lent them money?"

The man became excited again: "That can't be done. Everyone knows what happened to their family before. We also know their character and we won't lend them a penny."

"That's right. They couldn't borrow money, so they just lay at the entrance of our village, shouting and cursing, saying they were unfilial and so on."

"They also want to attract people from other villages to watch the fun and let those people speak for them."

"They also want to throw dirty water on the village chief."

"Guess what, village chief, our village's guards just tied them up, beat them up, and threw them out."

"They also said they wanted to report it to the official, but they didn't go after calling for a few days. Later, someone seemed to go, but the county magistrate didn't care."

"Haha, I made them so angry that I laughed to death."

"By the way, there's one more thing, that..."

"Village chief, your father has given you up."

Gu Xue:......

That vicious grandma was divorced.

She's quite old, isn't she cuckolding her father?

Tsk tsk, she was ready for the show.
