Chapter 266 The Woman Running Late at Night
"Grandpa Gu, from now on you should call me Yao Yatou instead of Crown Princess. I will send a few black-armored guards to escort you back!"
"As for signing up for work, just ask one person from each family to sign up. Not everyone can come. We have to start planting sweet potatoes in mid-April, and this is a top priority!"
Xie Yiyao guessed that Gu Yulang was probably already busy with the composting process, and Gujia Village couldn't let this important event be delayed!
Gu Dechang was surprised when he heard this. Can sweet potatoes be grown in such cold weather?
"Of course! Even if the weather gets cold, there are still four seasons throughout the year. Winter does end late now, but I estimate it will be over in April. Although the temperature this year will be colder than in previous years, it is still possible to grow sweet potatoes."
After April, Gujia Village must seize the time to plant sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes have a short planting time and can grow by the time winter comes.
Xie Yiyao explained to Gu Dechang very seriously with her little hands that according to the system's calculations, the weather should enter the long winter again in September.
If Gujia Village did not plant sweet potatoes in April, there would be no chance to grow food that year.
Fortunately, she can get cotton seeds from the system mall. Then she can not only grow cotton in Yanjing City, but she will also ask her uncle to arrange cotton planting all over the country.
In this way, poor people at least have clothes to keep warm in winter.
Alas, Xie Yiyao sighed in her heart. She could only do this much due to her limited ability, but she believed that things would get better and better in the future.
As long as the people here are willing to work hard, they will be able to have enough food and clothing!
Gu Dechang was so moved that he burst into tears. He did not bother Xie Yiyao any more. He had watched this girl grow up and naturally understood her personality.
This girl usually looks carefree, catching chickens and fighting dogs. All the kids in the village who can be named have been beaten and cried by her, but no one would have thought that she has such a delicate mind.
Knowing that they were a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people with food insecurity, they still sent people to escort them back to Gujia Village!
Gu Dechang instantly felt that Xie Yiyao had really grown up and was no longer the baby who drank from the bottle all day long!
Time flies so fast!
The little baby has grown up, and he has reached old age...
Today was another busy day for Xie Yiyao, and it was not until dark that she had treated all the patients.
Shi Nie has also finished distributing the food!
Xie Yiyao rubbed his almost disabled hands and cheered in his heart, damn it, it’s finally done!
"Tomorrow I will buy a shop in the city and open the Divine Medical Clinic. If the common people get sick again in the future, they can go there to get medicine, but they have to pay. A dose of medicine for cold is 10 copper coins, and a dose of medicine for fever is 20 copper coins. If there are other symptoms, you can ask them to queue up. I will go there once every three days."
Xie Yiyao rubbed her hands and gave instructions to Bao Da Ting.
Bao Da Ting's eyes widened after hearing what Xie Yiyao said:
"Master, a dose of cold medicine costs two taels of silver in the capital! Medicine for fever costs at least four or five taels of silver. Are we selling it too cheaply?"
Xie Yiyao listened and explained patiently:
"Now the price of Dadeng's medicine is too high. When ordinary people get sick, they either have to endure it or die. If we set the price at two taels of silver, these ordinary people who have nothing to eat will have no choice but to wait for death."
Bao Da Ting looked a little ashamed after hearing what Xie Yiyao said.
He himself came from a poor family, so he naturally understood that what Xie Yiyao said was true.
If he hadn't earned 100 taels of silver from selling houses for the Gu family, his daughter Yunniang would have had to wait for death!
Bao Da Ting was the one who took Xie Yiyao's loyalty pill, so naturally he knew Xie Yiyao's secret.
Therefore, he was not worried at all that his master's medicinal materials would run out, and he did not say anything else.
However, there was always a feeling of pride spreading in the gossiper's heart. He really followed the right master!
"Er Gouzi, if we sneak into the city like this and get caught by the soldiers, it will be too embarrassing! We are now considered people with some dignity. Wouldn't it be a loss of status if we were caught?"
Gu Yu'an walked on the dark street with a surreptitious look, looking left and right vigilantly from time to time.
"What are you afraid of! Even if we are caught, who would dare to lock us up? Who are we? We are the uncles of the Crown Princess! Even the Crown Prince would have to call us uncles respectfully when he sees us!"
Gu Yubai glared and said sternly!
In fact, he felt a little guilty. He and Gu Yu'an ran away secretly this time. He was so annoyed. His parents asked him to find a wife all day long!
He had promised Gu Yu'an that he would never get married in this life!
How nice it is that he earns money and spends it by himself, and he doesn't have to be controlled by a woman!
The bloodline of their Gu family will be continued by his eldest brother!
He still knows what he is, so there is no need to pass on his bloodline.
So as to avoid bringing harm to the world!
"Hey? Er Gouzi! Look, is there a ghost over there?"
Gu Yu'an suddenly had an idea and grabbed Gu Yubai's arm tightly, pointing at a woman with disheveled hair who was stumbling in front of him and said.
The woman seemed to be holding something in her arms, and she was wearing only inner clothes. Strangely, she was also wearing a fox fur coat that looked very valuable.
"What are you looking at? That's just a woman. She looks like she's holding a child in her arms."
Gu Yu'an said unhappily.
Gu Yubai's voice was still trembling:
"In the dead of night, who knows if it's a woman or a ghost?"
"Bullshit! Where do ghosts come from in this world? Have you ever seen one?"
Gu Yubai seemed to think that Gu Yuan's words made some sense, but he was still a little unconvinced:
"I'm going to tell mom that you said she farted!"
Gu Yu'an suddenly got goose bumps all over his body!
He has been beaten with a feather duster by Old Lady Yin a lot recently. What if that bastard Gu Yubai instigates him in front of his mother?
Mother is so angry now that she is going to skin him alive!
"You bastard! I didn't forget to take you with me when I fled, and this is how you repay me! I'll beat you to a pulp!"
Gu Yu'an was so angry that he was about to beat Gu Yubai!
Gu Yubai is not stupid, how could he let his hand run away!
So the two martial arts masters started a game of chase and escape on the dark street, neither of them could escape even if they had wings!
"what!"
A shrill woman's scream frightened Gu Yubai so much that he trembled!
Looking at the woman he accidentally knocked down, there was an old lady behind her who was staring at Gu Yubai in panic!
The woman had picturesque features, her eyebrows were dark blue, and tears glistened under her long eyelashes. At this moment, she was looking at Gu Yubai with anger on her face.
"You bastards, you only know how to bully women! The street is so wide, but you insisted on bumping into me! Wuuwuwu~"
The woman hugged the little girl tightly in her arms and cried so miserably!
