Since the Banpingshan incident was over, you can turn around immediately.

Xiaoshan did not want to stay here for a long time, so he ordered his servants to clean up their clothes and return to Xiao's mansion.

But Yuzhu was worried about whether Doctor Tao was willing to treat Wang Lang. When she was about to set off, she finally waited for a handwritten letter from Doctor Tao. Following the letter, there was also a small cloth bag.

Yuzhu opened the letter and saw the font on the letter, which read: "It's just a clumsy skill, not as good as my father. Since you are an old friend, why bother so merciless? Who can I do? Just say it."

Yuzhu read it and then unbuttoned the cloth bag. It turned out to be the jade box she had given to the old man before. But now the jade box has been broken into several pieces, no longer as exquisite and round as before.

Yuzhu's face changed slightly. Jue'er, who was beside him, couldn't help but exclaim: "If the old man is not happy, just send it back! Why do you have to smash the good things into pieces?"

However, when Yuzhu picked up a piece of fragment with her slender hands and focused her attention, her cheeks suddenly turned red with shame.

The jade box she carved, looking at the jade craftsmen in the northwest, can be said to be a skill that is superior to all the good people. However, Mr. Tao has seen her father, Master Yuan, who carved. With comparison, the old man can naturally notice the flaws she is eager to cover up. When he sees the jade box at a quick glance, he has a perfect workmanship, but if he looks at the hollowed-out layer at the bottom through the carving, he will find some small and unaware roughness.

Now the old man smashed the jade box, and the frizz that was originally hidden behind the hollow carving suddenly disappeared. It suddenly made people find their shortcomings.

The old man's words "smart" seem mean, but in fact it also reminded her that she is far different from her father's superb carving work!

I don’t know who Dr. Tao heard from whom she was the descendant of Master Yuan, but this tone really reminded me that her path to ingenuity is still far away.

Yuzhu pursed her lips and wrote back. In addition to writing down Jingtang's home illness, she also solemnly added a few words: "Yuzhu has only one thank you for being taught."

So after sending the letter away, the person got on the carriage and prepared to turn around. Along the way, she just lowered her head and pondered, and was silent for a while.

Upon hearing the news of Xiao Shan's return, the fifth lady Xiao Zhen'er was the most excited. She pulled her fourth brother to the outside of the mansion early to wait. When she saw the carriage coming, she just pulled her Luoshang and ran straight for her.

If it were usual, she would naturally pester her elder brother to ask for a souvenir to return from home, but today, she took Liumei Yuzhu's hand first and pulled her back to her room first.

Without waiting for Yuzhu to untie the outer cloak, he asked anxiously: "Have you seen General Wen?"

Yuzhu smiled and unbuttoned while unbuttoning, saying, "But I roasted sweet potatoes in a small stove? It smelled strange fragrance."

The fifth girl was a little anxious: "Why are you more and more like my elder brother? You are just talking about it and keeping your heart and lungs open. Good sister, tell me quickly and peel a big sweet flesh for you to eat later!"

After Yuzhu teased the fifth girl, she smiled and said, "It was just that I met next to the post station. I had a rash on my face, which was inconvenient to see people. I just greeted him a few words and there was nothing next to me. If you want to ask about the general's deeds, I'm afraid you have to find the elder brother to explain in detail."

Although Xiao Zhen'er did not ask any details, she did not ask anything wrong. She felt that her heart that had been hanging for a few days could be properly put back into her stomach. Instead, she got up and went to the small stove in the outer room, wrapped her handkerchief with copper chopsticks and took out a soft and glutinous sweet potato from the stove, wrapped it in straw paper and removed the skin, and handed it to Yuzhu for food.

When it comes to these brothers and sisters in the Xiao family, besides marrying from the second sister from the capital, Yuzhu is still willing to get along with Xiao Zhen. Although this sister is not as smart and agile as her second sister, she is not very good at looking at her eyes, and often speaks incorrectly, but her joys and angers are all on her face, and she forgets the hatred overnight in a blink of an eye, and she is always easier and more comfortable than getting along with someone who is cautious everywhere.

So she drank two cups of date tea with the hot sweet potatoes, and then ate two pieces of sweet potatoes. The fifth girl was a little straight. Although Xiao Zhen'er was dull, she grew up with Yuzhu. Seeing her bite after bite, she said, "But I feel unhappy, how can I eat it like this?"

Yuzhu smiled and said, "I'm not a child anymore. Why did I eat a few pieces of potatoes for you? I feel sorry for you?" Xiao Zhen'er smiled and said, "It's just a few pieces of potatoes. As long as I don't rob General Wen, I will follow you!"

When Yuzhu heard this, she shook her head slightly and sighed. However, Xiao Zhen'er was just scrambling to grab the food, but she didn't notice it.

However, after such a greed, I was full of food for a while and didn't go to the front hall to have a meal.

But I can’t eat lunch, and I always have to greet my grandmother when I go home.

Afterwards, Yuzhu heard from Jue'er that his elder brother had sold Liu Ma, and she couldn't help feeling a little sad. The elder brother was the eldest son of the Xiao family since he was a child. Although he had a steady and proficient way of doing things, the eldest son of the rich family was inevitably a bit of a problem. Just because of this self-righteousness and not considering others, it can be considered a matter of it.

Then Liu's mother said a few words, which was actually insignificant to her, but after such a sale, she caused a big deal. In this way, wouldn't the old lady's anger be vented on her?

But since things have happened, it is useless to say too much. Just look at how the old lady said.

When she went to the old lady's Buddhist temple to pay tribute, she found that her elder brother Xiao Shan was also there.

However, unlike her expected grandmother's face of shock and anger, at this time, Old Lady Xiao was talking to Changsun with a friendly face. Seeing Yuzhu in, she waved her hand and called her over, and said with pity: "I worked hard all the way, but why did I look at it but lose weight after not seeing her for a few days?"

Yuzhu smiled: "The journey is outside, so naturally there is no stability at home."

Mrs. Xiao nodded and said, "Tomorrow I will ask the housekeeper to go to the warehouse to get some old ginseng to nourish you. It can be considered that I will accompany you on behalf of Liu Mama."

The old lady suddenly mentioned Liu Ma, Xiao Shan couldn't help but brow and said coldly: "Why should grandmother give her a favor if she is not a master, why should she be a shameful compensation for her?"

The old lady shook her head slightly and said, "You must not forget the essence of being a human being. This is suitable for Mother Liu, and it is also suitable for you. Don't forget that you were playful when you were young and almost fell into the water. Mother Liu jumped into the pool in time and took you out of the water regardless of the stones. When someone came up, the blood was dyed red half of the pond. Just this way, you should also receive this life-saving grace. Although she was confused and disrespectful for a while, she would not sell her to the south. I had heard the letter and sent someone to stop the boat at the pier. As for Mother Liu, she also asked someone to reprimand her and gave her money to go home to take care of her old age."

After hearing this, Xiao Shan frowned again, and an unknown dark fire immediately rose in his heart. He had just sent a mama Liu to his mother, but his grandmother knew about it and sent someone to stop him in time. This was the shaking tiger across the mountain, and he raised himself. She, the ancestor of the Xiao Mansion, was staring at him all the time.

At this time, Xiao Shan understood why most of the emperors of the previous dynasty were so depressed that they died early when the empress dowager ruled behind the curtain. If this continues, how can people let go?

However, he was indeed a little in the matter and it was not easy to get into trouble. But the next thing was to remove grandmother's eyeliner from his side.

Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and said, "It's still my ancestors who thought carefully. I have remembered your teachings."

Yes, the sentence that cannot be forgotten is not just a mention of her, Xiao Yuzhu, don’t forget the favor of the Xiao family?

However, an old servant was naturally not the focus of the old lady's concern. Next, she focused on asking General Wen about when he would come to Xiao's mansion.

Xiao Shan naturally understood the intention of his ancestors this time, and said a little coldly: "General Wen is just a polite moment. People like him who have a lot of trouble have no time to visit our merchant home."

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Xiao retorted without any reason. She just closed her eyes, picked up the small wooden gavel on the table and knocked on the wooden fish, and then said, "Since there is nothing wrong, you two will retreat."

The two left the room and walked for a while. Xiao Shan called Yuzhu, looked at her clear face and took a deep breath, and said, "Although my grandmother refused to delegate power, I have the final say in the big things in the family. Please wait patiently, I want you to become the hostess of this Xiao Mansion."

After hearing this, Yuzhu finally raised her thin eyebrows a little higher and said softly: "Brother has always felt sorry for Yuzhu. He should know that Yuzhu's greatest wish is to leave the Xiao Mansion and live a peaceful and comfortable life. What you said is not my wish, but it will also make the whole family uneasy. I hope my brother will forget these meaningless words." After that, he quickly turned around and left. He only kept Xiao Shan clenched his fists behind Qianying.

Yuzhu quickly returned to her room. When she remembered what Xiao Shan said just now, she frowned again. She didn't know what she had done wrong since childhood, so she made her elder brother think like this, but she never expected that he had already started a family and her thoughts were still cut off!

If she stayed in the mansion again, some trouble might occur in the future. Grandmother's meaning was easy to understand. She would probably wait for General Wen to come and ask him to ask General Wen to take him as his concubine, which would also ruin the elder brother's mind.

Unfortunately, she had no intention of marrying someone again, and even if she was kind, she would find it difficult to surrender to this matter. Now that the dilemma of the Xiao family has been resolved, she should not stay in the Xiao family anymore. Jingtang and her land and house are her best way to retreat.

Thinking of this, she turned around the house, took out the land deed, and took advantage of the time when Jue'er went to get the ginseng soup, and put it in a small bag of necessary items she wanted to bring and placed it at the bottom of the wardrobe. As for the bag of jade materials given by the second young master Yao, Yuzhu had only now had a loophole to look at it, and then she found that these jade materials were all rare treasures. The jade quality was very transparent and excellent.

Yuzhu couldn't tell the meaning of the second young master Yao. Since he knew his unspeakable shortcomings, he gave these excellent jade materials a good way to gag. However, since he said that he wanted to make a souvenir for his mother to return to Beijing, he would try his best to carve out a decent one. As for whether it was his second young master.

After thinking about this, the bag of jade materials was packed and taken away.

On the second day, Yuzhu didn't even say hello, but told Jue'er to go out to buy needles and thread, put two small bags on her arm, put on a cloak outside, and took Jue'er out.

When she got to the street, she went to the intersection to hire a carriage and went straight to the neighboring county that Jingtang said.

Jue'er realized that the lady was about to leave Xiao's mansion and was shocked and said, "Miss Six, how could she leave like this? The old lady and the old master didn't say anything!"

Yuzhu said calmly: "If you say something, you won't be able to leave. I left a letter to the old lady in the room. The letter said that the second young master Yao recognized me as the descendant of the Yuan family, and was very unhappy. In order to avoid another disaster in the Xiao family, I would like to get rid of the Xiao family and leave the Xiao family. I have arrangements for my daily life, so I don't need to worry about it."

The old lady is a sensible person. When she clicked here, the old lady should know the pros and cons of choosing. Her appearance is insignificant compared to the well-being of the Xiao Mansion. Instead of letting the elder brother obstruct him in every way when he said goodbye, it would be better to leave like this.

However, she was so confident that she had to thank her ex-husband Jing Tang for her careful arrangements, otherwise she would not have a place to settle down. In a slightly wild border county like the northwest, the consequences would be unimaginable.

When I arrived at the place, I thought it was just a thin thatched cottage, but after getting off the carriage, Yuzhu was shocked again. Although the fields were in the countryside, the houses were independent houses in the county town, far away from the chaos in the county.

The square courtyard is not big, but the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs. The master's room is as short as the side room where the servant lives. It is very decent. An old woman who was commanding two old servants to repair the roof saw Yuzhu bringing her maid in. She was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked, "May I ask, but Miss Yuan?"

Yuzhu nodded and was about to take out the land deed, but the old lady smiled and said, "It's considered that she's waiting for the lady, she's even more beautiful than the ones painted by the princess! I'm Ma Zhao. The girl sees what's missing in the house, just open her mouth.

There is no shortage of anything? As careful as Wang Lang, they all think carefully. The fields in the suburbs of the county have been rented to tenant farmers, and the rent is not much every month, but it is enough to support the living in the courtyard.

Yuzhu was completely her master in this courtyard, and she felt that she had never been so relaxed and comfortable in her life.

He just asked the servant to clean up a side room with piles of miscellaneous items, nailed the shelves and tables to make a carving workshop. He was determined to carve a piece of utensil to thank Mr. Tao for his help in treating Jingtang.

She had previously worried that her elder brother would come, but after half a month, the Xiao family was silent. She also breathed a sigh of relief.

But on this day, there was a messy sound of people and horses chirping at the door. Yuzhu's heart sank, and someone knocked on the door and said aloud: "Miss Six, can you live here temporarily?"

An old servant opened the door, but was shook his eyes by the guards in fine clothes standing at the door, and stared blankly at the gorgeous carriages outside."
