Chapter 1143: It's Not About Size, It's About Usab
rious.Mr. Peng kept staring at the books as they entered his study, only then did he let out a sigh of relief.After that, he still had to label, categorize, and go to the storage room for pens and ink..."Princess, Miss, this little eunuch says he was sent by Master Li and wants to see you." 。The guard spoke, and the young eunuch immediately knelt down and kowtowed, his expression full of fear. 。"Your Highness, I did not mean to enter the palace..." 。It is truly Master Li who misses Madam Li, and instructed me to come and inquire. 。The Third Princess waved her hand, then nodded to Jia Yin and went into the house. 。After thanking the guards, Jia Yin then asked the little eunuch a few questions. 。Hearing that Second Uncle and Mr. Wen were doing well and didn't look like they had heatstroke, she also felt relieved. 。Then, she called Caiyun forward and gave her five small bottles. 。"Caiyun, do me a favor and go with this little official. Bring these to my second uncle..." 。" Cai Yun quickly laughed and replied... Li Lao Er and the others had been sunning themselves for most of the morning, and after finally taking a break, they were exhausted. 。Everyone took a bite and, like salted fish that had been out of water for too long, slumped in their chairs, unable to get up. They completely forgot about appearances. 。Caoyun and the little eunuch entered the side hall from outside, walked along the wall to Li Laoer's side, just when Li Laoer was drowsy, seeing the two of them immediately woke up. 。Cai Yun bowed respectfully and spoke in a low voice, "Master, my name is Cai Yun, a maidservant serving the Third Princess. The princess entrusted me to come here and deliver something to you." 。After saying this, she took out several small bottles. 。Li Laer received it, took a careful look, and then asked about his mother and niece's situation. 。...
Caiyun didn't hide anything, she explained it carefully ... 。Li Laoer let out a long sigh of relief and smiled, "Thanks to the Prince and Princess for their special care" 。" Seeing many officials looking over, Caiyun hurried to bid farewell. " 。Li La Er rewarded the eunuch, watching him leave, then opened the small bottle 。Mr. Wen walked over and, catching a whiff of the refreshing scent, chuckled, "Peppermint candy Give me one! It's so hot out today, even walking could make you fall asleep." 。Li Laer gave him a bottle, then went to find Jia An, Liu Zhiheng, and Liu Lao Taiye next door. By the time he returned, Mr. Wen was already holding an empty bottle and on the verge of tears. 。Before Li Lao Er could inquire, more officials surrounded him...It wasn't until the sun set that the officials and mourning women left the palace one after another. 。The carriages and servants who had been waiting at the palace gate all day also became lively. 。There are still six days left until such a day arrives. Everyone is desperate, but they dare not show it at all. 。At the Earl's manor, Chang Momo had already had people prepare the meals and set out the bathwater. 。Everyone quickly bathed and changed into clean clothes, finally escaping the discomfort of being drenched in sweat. 。When the food arrived, everyone ate and talked about what had happened that day. 。Li Laoer sipped the lotus seed soup, smiling and saying to his niece, "Funi'er, tomorrow bring us some more peppermint candy. 。Today's offerings were all snatched up by others, so Mr. Wen and I only got to eat two. 。"
Jia An also looked helpless and proud, echoing, "Me too, even strangers would chat with me for half an hour just for a candy." 。It's better to just give him one directly, so I can save some saliva. 。Jia Yin smiled and said to her grandma as she prepared the cold noodles, "We have some at our shop. Let them all go buy it there, business will definitely get even hotter!" 。"Are you out of your mind" Jia'an laughed and reminded, "Didn't we close the shop" "Oh," Jiayin jumped in surprise and replied, "I completely forgot! I was just talking at the palace about having Zhen Guogong's wife come buy from our shop..." 。"It's nothing, Grandma Li patted her granddaughter's hand and comforted her. "It's so late now, it would be impossible to go buy anything at the Zhen Guogong Mansion." 。"Just bring a few more things to give away tomorrow!"
Jia Yin nodded. The situation was tense right now, it wasn't really appropriate for people to be giving things away.
See you tomorrow, and give me another bottle. 。It wasn't that she wanted to befriend the Duke of Zhen Guo and his family. She just didn't want to break her promise. 。Although they had no appetite, everyone still managed to eat half a meal. 。After dinner, Zheng He also returned, bringing news of the fleet. 。"Master, our boat is sailing smoothly. At noon we had reached two hundred li, and by now it's even farther." 。Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. After saying a few more words, they dispersed to rest. 。It seemed like just as I had closed my eyes, the eastern sky was beginning to faintly lighten, and a new day had begun. 。Every household, countless people complained and cursed in secret, but they still rushed to the palace without a moment's delay... Compared to yesterday, today the Third Princess, taking charge, only had them kneel for a while. She then invited Old Madam Li and Jia Yin to the side hall to continue "copying scriptures." 。The little fox finally had a change of heart and remembered that it had an owner. It came out of nowhere to join the commotion. 。But the weather was too hot, even holding a fluffy little fire stove, everyone couldn't stand it. 。Therefore, the popular little fox fell out of favor for the first time. 。When the prince came over at noon, it decisively jumped into the prince's arms and continued to hug the dragon's thigh. 。The prince didn't mind, he fed it fruit and said a few words to the crowd before leaving. 。The Princess Consort and others outside the door saw this, and immediately became interested... Let's not talk about how hard everyone in the palace was working. Just say that Suijin Beach was much deserted because all the children had left... 。In the river outside the village, which had almost dried up, there were no more boys swimming and splashing around, or fishing with their bare arms. 。There were no more children carrying baskets to cut grass at the foot of the mountain. 。Even in the orchard, there’s no need to worry about children ruining the fruit!At mealtimes, there’s no longer a woman yelling at her children...Everyone felt a little out of sorts. From time to time they would gather under the big tree at the village entrance, staring down the road, wondering what they were waiting for, what they missed… In the past, the village head would definitely say something to comfort them, but he didn't have the time now. 。He took a car and went around various villages with Zhao Shu. 。The host of Jicun naturally received them with enthusiasm. In the end, they gathered at the scene in front of the big locust tree. The villagers' families killed chickens and stewed meat at their homes, sitting opposite each other and drinking. 。While a third of him was drunk, the village chief said, "Old brothers, we're here today not for anything else, but to tell you..." 。Our village is going to be under lockdown for a month. No one can go in or out unless it's absolutely necessary. 。All of you are from the same village, greet each other and please don't move around. 。Everyone in the village was surprised and asked, "What happened Why are we suddenly being quarantined"The village head waved his hand and smiled, "Isn't it because the Empress passed away The master family is all in the city mourning, there's no one in charge here, so they just sealed off the village." 。Even though I usually worry about interrupting the children's studies, now that all the schools in town and countryside have closed for a month, even Mr. Chiang has gone into town to play, so there's no need to worry anymore. 。“ As Jingli and the others nodded in agreement, this reason seemed quite reasonable. ” 。The village head continued, “Speaking of it, after the new year, there have been non-stop events, both within and outside the city. It's truly a bad omen.” 。"My right eyelid has been twitching all day, non-stop." 。I always feel that something big might happen someday. 。" Right then, Jing slapped his thigh and said, "Brother, we're truly alike!" 。I feel uneasy about this. 。No matter how many years one has lived, or how difficult life may have been, nothing seems as hurried and chaotic as it is now. 。" My dears, starting today, the updates will be single ones. Huahua is working hard to build a more exciting plot for the follow-up. " 。HUGS! You got this!ep ourselves stable, and it won't be so easy for outsiders to plot against us." Li Lao Er comforted the crowd.Everyone chimed in, "That's right! No matter who schemes, everyone keeps their money bags...
