Gu Qingqing nodded, "If you plan to study, we will buy a house in town. It will be convenient for you to go back and forth to study, and I can also do some small business. If you don't plan to study, we will buy land and build a house in the village. Our mountain is not suitable for growing food, but we can transplant the bamboo forest over there. When there are more bamboos, I plan to make paper. If it is successful, I will sell it to the bookstores in town. If not, I will sell it to the villagers as toilet paper. In the future, we can also go to the mountains to find a few wild fruit trees and transplant them back. Come in spring to enjoy the flowers and eat the fruits in autumn. Plant flowers outside the fence and let the morning glory grow around the fence. It will be very beautiful."

Gu Qingqing was daydreaming about her home, but Wen Wuyan's eyes widened after hearing this. He asked in disbelief, "Qingqing, can you make writing paper? I heard that there is only one company in Shangyang County that makes paper!"

Gu Qingqing cried out in her heart, is it too late for her to change her mind now?

Gu Qingqing was stunned. Just when she wanted to say that a hero should not be asked about his origin, Wen Wuyan asked suspiciously, "Qingqing, how do you know how to make paper? Not to mention Taohua Town, there is no one in the nearby towns. As for the one in Shangyang County..."

Wen Wuyan didn't finish her words, but her meaning was very clear: she had no place to learn these things.

Before, Gu Qingqing just said that she had some new memories, so Wen Wuyan thought that she was recalling her mother at home.

After Gu Qingqing thought about it, she realized that she had gotten away with it last time, so this time she planned to have a good talk with Wen Wuyan.

Then, she raised her hand and pointed at her head. "Last time, I just told you that I recovered some memories, but that's not the case. Instead, I have a lot of unfamiliar memories. I don't know how they appeared in my mind. I didn't dare to tell you more at first because I was afraid that you would think I was a monster and then abandon me."

Gu Qingqing chose to talk about herself as a outsider from the original owner’s perspective.

It turned out that Wen Wuyan's focus was not on what she said at all.

Instead, Wen Wuyan smiled, his smile was gentle and kind. He stretched out his hand and grasped Gu Qingqing's equally rough hand in his palm, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my wife, living and dead! Although I don't know why it is like this, I know and believe that you, Gu Qingqing, will always be my wife, and have never been a monster! Also, from the beginning, you didn't want a burden like me, how could I dislike you at all!"

"Ah! Is that so? When did it happen?" Gu Qingqing muttered quickly.

Wen Wuyan's doting eyes almost turned into reality, and he complained, "You forgot, when I just came back and was lying on the kang, you asked me to write a letter of reconciliation or divorce!"

Gu Qingqing was startled when she heard this, then laughed and said, "Ah! Tsk, is that true? Why don't I remember it?"

Her tail was pulled and her eyes were darting around.

"So, it has information about how to make paper?"

"Well, there are some clips about making paper from bamboo in these pictures, and there are others, but some of the pictures are clear and some are blurry."

Gu Qingqing did not lie about this. She had simply watched too many short videos before, so what she could remember was limited.

Wen Wuyan seemed to have made up his mind. He squeezed Gu Qingqing's hand and said, "Qingqing, I've made up my mind. I want to go to school!"

When Gu Qingqing heard him say that he wanted to go to school, she nodded, "Okay, since you want to go to school, let's go to town and buy a house!"

But Wen Wuyan smiled and shook his head, "We won't buy a house in town, we'll buy land."

"Buy land? Why? Don't you want to study?" Gu Qingqing was surprised.

"If I tell you that I study for you, will you believe it?" Wen Wuyan said.

"for me?"

"Yes, for you. Qingqing wants to be a businessman. Merchants don't have a good status in Daliang. Scholars, farmers, merchants, and workers in workshops are all one level higher than merchants. Although we make paper, which is a subsidiary of elegance, we can't escape the name of merchants in the future when we become big."

"You don't like the title of businessman?" Gu Qingqing asked.

Wen Wuyan smiled as brightly as the rising sun and shook his head slowly. "If there is no one to back us up, our industry will be taken away by someone with ulterior motives when we start to make progress. If I can pass the examination to become a scholar, someone who wants to covet our industry will have to think twice. If I can pass the examination to become a juren, they will have to think twice. By then, Qingqing can do whatever she wants. Although I dare not say that I can preserve our industry, at least I can stop some people from taking action against us easily."

After hearing Wen Wuyan's words, Gu Qingqing suddenly understood.

Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he looked him up and down and said, "Wen Wuyan, I didn't realize that you think longer-term than I do."

The most she thought of was to keep some of the paper for herself and sell some to bookstores in the town. Little did she know that Wen Wuyan had paved the way for her afterwards, allowing her to do her job without any worries!

Wen Wuyan accepted the compliment, but smiled at her.

"Let's buy the land. Do you think your second brother or your mother will come to make trouble if we buy the land?" Gu Qingqing asked curiously.

Wen Wuyan thought for a moment and said, "The land is the dowry we bought for Dahua. They won't lower their face to covet it."

Not to mention places far away, this is the case in Taohua Town. As long as parents specifically state in public that something is a dowry for their child, no matter how greedy someone in the family is, they will not be able to bring themselves to covet it.

Of course, if someone is really shameless and makes a scene, it would be a laughing stock.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Gu Qingqing replied, then stood up and waved to the dental broker who had been in their sight.

Both of them are decisive people. Once they make a decision, they take action immediately.

After Dahua came back, Gu Qingqing first glanced at Xiao Chenan.

Xiao Chenan felt uncomfortable being stared at, and rolled his eyes, "Aunt, why are you looking at me like this?"

Gu Qingqing raised her finger and pointed at him, "Wait for me to come back."

Then she asked Dahua to look after the house while she and Wen Wuyan followed the broker to look at the land. After all, it would cost more than sixty taels of silver, so they couldn't just do it without even looking.

Because Wen Wuyan had difficulty walking, the pawnbroker simply let him ride on a donkey while he and Gu Qingqing walked over.

As a result, they met Niu Yuzhu as soon as they got on the road.

"Brother Wuyan, you got a donkey? But did you buy it? Where are you going?"

Wen Wuyan looked around and said, "This donkey belongs to this young man. He took us to see a field in Shangyang Village. If it's suitable, your sister-in-law and I are ready to buy it."

When Niu Yuzhu heard that they wanted to buy land, he was happy for them and expressed his willingness to go along.

Wen Wuyan naturally wished this would happen, it would be nice if more people could take a look.
