An Zihao couldn't help but sigh that compared to those superficial stories on the streets, the interpretation of "Journey to the West" was obviously on a higher level.
He was secretly curious about what kind of master Zhang's master was. It was a pity that the master was gone and he could not see him in person.
"Sixth Young Master, how is it? I didn't lie to you!"
The young lady boasted proudly.
“Really wonderful.”
An Zihao responded briefly, then seemed to remember something and turned his gaze to Fan Yunfu: "Master Zhang, is it convenient for us to talk in private?"
"Sixth Young Master, please follow me."
Fan Yunfu respectfully led An Zihao into another more private box.
After the two left, Zhang Ming looked at their backs and said thoughtfully, "It seems that the identity of this Sixth Young Master is definitely not simple. Even County Magistrate Zhang respects him so much."
"No matter who he is, we haven't done anything to offend him, and we even saved his life by the river."
Xiao Youniang took a sip of tea nonchalantly, with a relaxed attitude.
Xu Liyun was a little worried: "But, is it not a good idea to let him wash and peel potatoes with us every day?"
"What's wrong with that? He is penniless now and relies on us for food, drink and shelter. It's only right that we help him a little."
Xiao Youniang refuted with confidence.
Zhang Laoer laughed loudly and said generously: "Why don't we just treat him as an ordinary person? He is still our Xiaowu."
……
Under the cover of night, the story of the teahouse came to a temporary end, but the legend of this small town seemed to have just begun.
"I, Fan Yunfu, am humbled and terrified to meet His Highness the Sixth Prince. I am deeply troubled by the disturbance I caused just now. I hope Your Highness will forgive my unintentional mistake."
After he finished speaking, Fan Yunfu bent his body, knelt on the ground, and put his hands on the ground, showing the most respectful attitude.
In this era when imperial power was supreme, there was a clear hierarchy and when ordinary people met members of the royal family, kneeling down to greet them was an indispensable etiquette. Every action revealed their awe and submission to the imperial power.
"No need to be so polite. We can call each other brothers when we are outside. Just call me Sixth Young Master. Also, I have a favor to ask of you. I hope you can help me contact my mother secretly and tell her that I am fine so that she won't worry."
The Sixth Prince spoke in a friendly tone, trying to reduce the sense of distance between them.
"Yes, Sixth Prince... Sixth Young Master, if that's the case, why don't you move to the county government office to stay for a while. My humble abode happens to have a few quiet side courtyards with a peaceful environment. It's safer and more convenient than living among the common people."
Fan Yunfu made a suggestion with a sincere light in his eyes, hoping to provide better protection for this friend with a special identity.
An Zihao thought for a moment and finally nodded slightly.
Indeed, this is more appropriate. In case of another sneak attack by assassins, the county government's defense force is incomparable to that of the civilian population.
At least his safety can be better guaranteed.
Soon, the two returned to Zhang's private room, but unexpectedly, the Zhang family had quietly left in a light carriage, leaving only a cold room.
An Zihao couldn't help but let out a helpless smile. This family was truly as casual as they were known for. They didn't even wait for him to return with them.
Fan Yunfu looked at the empty room, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face. "Sixth Young Master, if you have forgotten something in the Zhang family that needs to be retrieved, I can send Deshun to take care of it. Now, let's send you back to the county government office to rest."
An Zihao waved his hand slightly, rejecting the proposal: "No need, just send me to Jinxiu Pavilion. I want to go and greet Aunt Liu, and personally express my gratitude to the Zhang family for saving my life and taking good care of me during this period of time."
At the same time, in the Zhang family’s backyard, the three siblings lazily lay on bamboo lounge chairs, enjoying a moment of tranquility.
Little Youniang gently swayed the wooden chair in her hand, smiling: "Mother, the teahouse business is so hot, I think we can earn at least 40 or 50 taels of silver per hour, and we will get 20 taels. Why should we grow potatoes in the future? It is the right way for us to concentrate on writing books."
Zhang Ming immediately agreed, "I agree with Second Sister. You guys are busy washing and peeling potatoes after lunch every day. This takes half a day. If you go out to set up a stall, you can only make two or three taels of silver at most. It's really not worth it."
Zhang Wuya listened to the conversation between the brother and sister while thinking carefully, and suddenly said: "In fact, we can consider selling recipes, such as the unique secret recipe of wolf tooth potatoes. This is well-known in Chengguan County, and there will definitely be many people willing to buy it."
Hearing this, Xu Liyun tidied up the scattered hair around her ears and said in a gentle and tolerant voice: "Well, this is a good idea. Your father and I will go and see if anyone is interested in our formula."
“Although growing potatoes does bring us some income, we don’t have to work so hard now.
Working hard all day long is just to make our family live a comfortable life, isn't it? "
Zhang Laoer looked at Xu Liyun affectionately, his eyes full of tenderness and attachment to his wife and family.
This rare tranquility did not last long. As An Zihao and Fan Yunfu walked into the courtyard, the peaceful atmosphere was instantly broken.
"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, I'm here to say goodbye to everyone."
As soon as An Zihao finished speaking, all the Zhang family members focused their attention on him.
"Sixth Young Master, have you contacted your family yet?"
Everyone's heart was filled with ripples. Why was he leaving so suddenly?
That's good. In this way, the Zhang family no longer has to get involved in the potato business. Although they will lose two capable helpers, they also avoid many risks.
An Zihao clasped his hands together and bowed deeply, saying with all his sincerity: "I sincerely thank you all for your generous help. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, I, An Zihao, will do my best to ensure that you are all safe and sound."
Xiao Youniang stared at the young but determined boy. His sincerity seemed to penetrate everything, making every word he said seem extremely credible.
"Since the Sixth Young Master has found his family, we will not try to keep him here any longer. We just wish you happiness and health in the future, and everything goes well."
Xu Liyun looked at An Zihao in front of her, secretly speculating in her heart that he might have an old connection with the Zhang family, otherwise how could he get in touch with his family so quickly.
"Well-being."
An Zihao responded in a low but powerful voice, and then bowed deeply to the Zhang family. This was the first time he showed such sincere gratitude to anyone other than his father and mother.
In this ordinary family, he felt the extraordinary warmth of family love, a warmth that would never be felt within the high walls of the imperial palace.
Nanny Liu, who was standing by, was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the Zhang family could win such respect from the Sixth Prince.
As An Zihao said goodbye to the Zhang family, night fell quietly.
