The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 54 Cry loudly
Xie Shaobai waited until dark, but Guyu didn't come back.
She has always served him wholeheartedly and won his heart more than anyone else. Xie Shaobai told himself that she must have been delayed by something, just like last time. He must not be anxious and cannot blame Guyu without knowing the situation.
As the night deepened, the only sounds inside and outside the village were the chirping of insects. Xie Shaobai waited until he dozed off when he heard footsteps outside.
He thought it was Grain Rain and went to open the door himself, but he found that the people standing outside were men doing farm work on the farm.
"What are you doing here?" Xie Shaobai frowned, looking very disgusted.
"It was Miss Guyu who asked me to come. She asked me to tell the eldest young master that the palace still wants osmanthus this year. Although the emperor wants to fill the city with chrysanthemums to celebrate the empress dowager's birthday, the empress dowager likes osmanthus. No one in the palace or anywhere else in Daqi is buying chrysanthemums."
The farmer continued, "Miss Guyu knew she couldn't face the young master, so she refused to return to the farm. She also said that the young master's injury had almost healed and he no longer needed her. She hoped that the young master could live a good life in the future. If you blame her, she has no complaints."
Xie Shaobai stood there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time. He seemed to hear the sound of his beautiful dream being shattered.
Just like that... it shattered with a loud crash.
He was completely defenseless.
"Master, are you okay? If you are, I will go back and rest." The farmer pretended to leave.
Xie Shaobai grabbed his arm very hard, and the farmer frowned in pain.
"Go to Xie's house and invite my second uncle to come and see me in person. This is a reward for you. Go now."
Xie Shaobai gave him a hundred bucks, and after the man took it, he nodded and said, "I will go and invite the second master to come for the eldest master now."
Not to mention that Xie Shaobai wanted to find Xie Zhun, even Xie Zhun wanted to find Xie Shaobai. So, when the farmer came to his door, Xie Zhun didn't say anything and went to the farm to see Xie Shaobai overnight.
Seeing Xie Zhun's expression, Xie Shaobai knew that the farmer's information was accurate.
"Compensation?" Xie Shaobai asked.
"This time we have to pay for everything." Xie Zhun was about to cry: "We did this without the knowledge of the master, and now it has become like this, what do you think we should do? How about we go out and hide for a while, and come back when this is over?"
He then said, "Your injury is almost healed, right? You should be able to travel far now? I brought 10,000 taels of silver with me before I left. We should spend it sparingly during this period and wait until winter before returning home!"
"By then, my mother and my third brother had calmed down, and the matter was completely over. By the way, I came here in a carriage, but now I can leave directly."
Xie Zhun asked his servant to pack the luggage quickly.
Xie Shaobai sat on the stool and didn't move for a long time.
He was thinking that all the money he invested was borrowed, and now that the situation has changed, he definitely has no money to pay it back.
Staying in Shengjing City is not a solution. I can only go out and avoid the limelight as my second uncle said.
Since the people from the money house can't find them, they will definitely go to the Xie family. The Xie family will help them pay back the money and they can come back after the storm has passed.
It can only be this way.
After the uncle and nephew had agreed, Xie Shaobai asked the servant to take the luggage, and they went out of the manor together.
The carriage was parked outside. There was no moon tonight and it was pitch dark.
As the peasants walked with torches, Xie Shaobai felt infinite pain in his heart. The wealth and status he had imagined had not come; the girl he relied on so much had also left him; and he still had to find a place to stay in the middle of the night...
Xie Shaobai's tears started to fall without him noticing. The carriage was right in front of him, and he couldn't move anymore, so he squatted down and cried.
"Hey, nephew, what's there to cry about? Your uncle will pay us back for that little bit of money. Let's go out for a stroll, visit the sights, eat and drink well, and we can come back when winter comes!"
Xie Zhun pulled Xie Shaobai up from the ground.
But suddenly he saw a bright light in front of him, and Xie Zhun was so scared that his legs trembled.
It was Wangshan who came with his men.
"It's too late, we are still one step too late!" Xie Zhun said with a sad face: "How did Third Brother know so quickly that we spent so much money? How did he know that we were going to run away?"
Wangshan didn't say much, and the uncle and nephew knew that he was here to catch them. Although they were reluctant, they knew they couldn't escape, so they could only follow Wangshan back to Xie Mansion.
When we returned to Xie's house, it was already the middle of the night.
Uncle Xie Zhun and his nephew were in fear all the way, thinking that Xie Lin was waiting at home to interrogate them, but when they returned home, they were told that Xie Lin had already gone to bed.
Wang Shan said, "Second Master and Young Master, please stay in your own yard and don't run around. There are guards guarding your yards to protect your safety day and night."
Protection! Uncle Xie and his nephew's eyebrows jumped. This is not protection, but surveillance! To prevent them from sneaking out!
After sending them back to their respective courtyards, Wangshan went back to report the matter to Xie Lin: "Third Master is very good at predicting things. When I went over, I happened to see Second Master was about to take the eldest young master away, and they had already prepared the carriage."
Xie Lin said "hmm" lightly, his expression calm.
There are only five days left until the Queen Mother's birthday.
Osmanthus flowers and a small amount of chrysanthemums can be seen everywhere in the imperial palace, the entire Shengjing City, and even in the various cities under the Daqi Kingdom.
Chu Runxue has been observing the changes in the situation.
Now she felt she could close the net.
"The Xie family needs to provide five million pots of osmanthus to the imperial palace and other places. You should ask someone to tell the head of the Xie family that we have enough osmanthus." Chu Runxue smiled.
"Yes, Miss!" The person who answered was a girl with Guyu's face.
Since her mission with Xie Shaobai had been completed, there was naturally no need for her to stay any longer.
At noon the next day, Guyu, wearing a veil to cover his face, brought people and pulled a carriage to the gate of Xie's house and found the housekeeper of Xie's house.
"I brought the finest osmanthus flowers and would like to meet your master. Please inform him." Guyu lifted the curtain of the carriage and let the housekeeper see the finest osmanthus flowers in the carriage.
The pots of osmanthus were trimmed well, each branch was very beautiful, the flowers were in full bloom, and a rich osmanthus fragrance wafted out.
"That's the carriage of my master. He just came back from the farm. I will go and tell the master about the girl's request now."
Xie Lin's carriage stopped at the gate. The butler stepped forward and told him what had happened. Wangshan lifted the curtain and helped Xie Lin get out of the carriage.
Guyu walked forward slowly and said, "Greetings to Mr. Xie Sanye."
Xie Lin said calmly: "You have osmanthus flowers in your hand? Top grade?"
"That's right. I brought a few pots here specially to show Master Xie. I wonder if they will please Master San."
Xie Lin looked towards the carriage and asked, "How many are there and how much do they cost?"
Guyu said with a hint of pride: "We have the quantity that Third Master Xie wants. These are top-quality products, 500 coins per pot."
