"I know that you are worried about Li Yunniang and Yuanbao." Xi Yalan grabbed Xia Qianqian's hand and added: "Don't worry."

"I'll take them with me."

"The capital is prosperous. Your mother has never traveled far, so she can just go for a stroll. If she likes it, she can also settle down."

"The Marquis has no shortage of places to live in the capital. If she is not used to living there, there are farms near the capital. She can also live in the farm. Anyway, I will arrange for her to go wherever she likes."

"As for Yuanbao, I will find the best academy and the best teacher for him."

"Your three brothers are in the capital. Let them take care of Yuanbao. No one will dare to bully him."

Xi Yalan reached out and touched the side of Xia Qianqian's face, "You don't have to say anything. Mom has owed you a lot before. This time when I go back, I will make up for it one by one."

"You are not young anymore. If you want to choose a husband, you must find a good one."

In just a short encounter, acquaintance, and acquaintance, she seemed to have figured out and paved the road ahead for her.

Xi Yalan, her love for her son moved Xia Qianqian.

She nodded, but then shook her head, "I can't leave yet."

She explained: "The cotton seedlings at the foot of the green mountain will be pulled out of cotton bales in two months and the cotton will be picked. That is the colored cotton that I planted under the entrustment of His Highness the King. It is still in the first season.

I and the rest of us don’t know how to cultivate.”

"There are still ten cows at home in Fu'an Village. We urgently need to relocate and relocate, otherwise they will get sick from the heat."

"In Jiangcheng, the hot and sour noodle shop is undergoing preliminary cleaning and purchasing supplies. I plan to open it in two months after I have mung beans."

"My mother runs the 'Jia Da Fa' shop. Although the income is small, it is her livelihood. She has been looking forward to it for half her life and finally has a serious job to do. She will not give up easily. Besides..."

She changed her tone and said, "She has been waiting for Xia Chi. She believes that she will definitely come back, and she definitely doesn't want to go to the capital."

"What about you?" The light of hope in Xi Yalan's eyes extinguished little by little.

"You can't live without me here."

Xia Qianqian closed her eyes and thought about it, then said: "Besides, among the capital masters, the Marquis is still biased against me. Anyone who has an extra daughter for no reason will be wary. I don't blame him."

Xi Yalan's light of hope was completely extinguished, "Is it possible that I have found you and lost you again."

"You have not lost me!" Xia Qianqian said earnestly: "I have always been here."

"Mom, if you miss me, you can come here to see me." She comforted: "If I miss you, I will also go to the capital to see you.",

"Are you really going to come to the capital?" Xi Yalan had another hope.

"The capital is prosperous and things are going well here. I also want to go to the capital to have a look."

"I'm waiting for you!"

"When will you leave?"

"Tomorrow!"

"So urgent?"

"I'm afraid that if I stay for a long time, I won't want to leave. Your eldest brother has a girl he likes."

When Xi Yalan mentioned her son, there was a smile on her face, "If he proposes marriage, as a mother, I will always be in the house to take care of everything for him."

Xia Qianqian was surprised.

She was not married when she was eighteen years old, and her eldest brother has not yet gotten married. "My eldest brother is Gui Geng this year, why did he get married so late?"

"He is twenty-five years old this year."

When mentioning this son, Xi Yalan's face softened a bit, "He was obsessed with reading and doing knowledge. At one time, I thought he was going to marry a book wife."

"Hehehe... you are saying that the eldest brother is a nerd." Xia Qianqian laughed out loud.

Xi Yalan was also amused, "If he is not stupid, he is crazy."

This time, Xia Qianqian laughed even louder.

Xi Yalan is really a mother who protects her cubs.

Compared with dementia, it is a further step, but it sounds a little nicer.

Xia Qianqian chatted with her for a while, and before leaving, she told her, "I'll see you off tomorrow."

Lunch was eaten under the window of the back room of "Jiafa".

Li Yunniang saw Xia Qianqian's uneasy look and asked, "The cow matter has been resolved. What else are you unhappy about?"

"Dean Xi is going back to the capital!" Xia Qianqian put down the dishes and chopsticks, "She has always taken good care of me, and I want to give her a gift tomorrow."

"So fast!" Li Yunniang said in surprise: "I thought she would stay here for a while. She treats me well, let's see her off together."

Thinking of this, Li Yunniang suggested: "Qianqian, let's close up early today, go home and make some delicious food for her to take with her on the road."

"Okay!"

"Mom, there is one more thing I want to discuss with my mother!" Xia Qianqian glanced at Hua Zhu'er beside her, "I want her to go to the academy too."

Hua Zhuer was so shocked that she almost dropped the chopsticks in her hand.

Yesterday, on the way to Fu'an Village, the girl once mentioned it, but she didn't expect that she would still think about it.

"But she..." Li Yunniang looked at Hua Zhu'er, gritted her teeth and said, "Go ahead. I have never regarded her as a maid. When she enters our Xia family, she is my child."

When Hua Zhuer heard this, her eyes turned red and she choked with sobs: "Madam, I..."

"Go to school and go to school!" Li Yunniang warned: "When you grow up, I will help you find a good marriage and marry into a good family."

"Hua Zhuer doesn't marry, Hua Zhuer spends her whole life serving the wife and the girl."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Yunniang said openly: "We are all hard-working women. Now that conditions are better and we can help each other, let's help each other."

Yuan Bao, who had been eating silently on the side, looked at everyone and said in shock: "Mom, don't worry. I will marry Sister Zhu'er when I grow up."

"You stinky boy!" Xia Qianqian slapped him on the head, "You haven't grown up yet, and you want to get a wife."

"I have grown up!" Yuan Bao was unconvinced, "Next year I will be as tall as Sister Zhuer's shoulders and head, and in the next year I will be as tall as her."

"If you are of average height, can you marry her?" Xia Qianqian teased.

"You're average, why can't you marry me?" Yuan Bao said vehemently.

"You want to marry, do you know if Sister Zhuer wants to marry you?"

"Sister Zhu'er..." Yuan Bao grabbed Zhu'er's sleeve, looking pitiful.

Everyone's eyes fell on Pearl.

Hua Zhuer's face turned red with embarrassment, she lowered her head and pouted, "Madam, girl, you know how to make fun of me."

"Haha..." Li Yunniang covered her mouth and smiled.

Xia Qianqian smiled even more happily.

Only Aunt Gui added a piece of chicken leg to the bowl she gave Yuan Bao, "Today's chicken drumstick is particularly delicious, try it quickly."

"Let me have a taste!" Yuan Bao excitedly picked up the chicken legs with chopsticks, took a hard bite, and nodded excitedly,

“It’s so delicious.”

In the afternoon, there is a self-study class.

As soon as Xia Qianqian arrived at the school, she was afraid that others would catch her asking questions again, so she simply took out a piece of white paper and scrawled and corrected it.

She is analyzing the terrain of various places in Fu'an Village and looking for suitable places.

Before I knew it, get out of class was over.

Xia Qianqian randomly folded the paper on the table, stuffed it into her bag, and ran out.

At the corner outside the academy, a carriage with a green tent has been waiting for a long time.
