As soon as the first day of the new year is over, the temperature becomes warmer day by day.
The snow has melted and the roads are clear. I didn’t have time to send all the New Year’s gifts to Gongsun Wubao in the car, so I plan to send them back.
Even if he didn't make up for the new year's gift, Gongsun Wubao still had to go there.
Because Gongsun Yan's issue regarding the successor has reached a high-pressure situation where he has to stand up.
No, before the snow had melted, Gongsun Yan sent someone over to deliver a message to Xu Da, hoping that he would meet him immediately.
Xu Da was not in a hurry. He waited for the snow to melt for three days and another sunny day to harden the muddy roads. Then he calmly led Xu Yue, who was going to take Wubao to spread the pigs to the tenants, and Xu Erniang to prepare.
The two large ox carts returned the favor and drove towards Gongsun Wubao.
As soon as the snow melts, the plants hidden in the soil emerge from the ground one after another, revealing a little bit of tender green buds, which looks particularly gratifying.
Seeing that his daughter was still holding the book "Postpartum Care of Sows", Xu Da reached out to take the book away from her arms and lifted the car curtain to let her take a closer look at the scenery outside.
"You three, mother and daughter, are really obsessed. You watch it while you're eating, sleeping, and even in the car. It's just your mother-in-law. You two sisters are growing up. What should you do if your eyes are damaged?"
Xu Da lectured angrily.
Xu Yue, who was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, suddenly pulled away from it. She was still a little unable to react. She looked at her father blankly for a while, then she woke up and smiled helplessly.
"My mother-in-law and my sister are working so hard. I am afraid that I will be left behind by them, so I have to work harder."
Xu Da suddenly raised his eyebrows and said in disapproval: "Don't imitate them. Let's take a look at the scenery outside and relax."
Xu Yue was indeed tired of watching, so she nodded and responded obediently: "Okay."
Xu Da then breathed a sigh of relief and felt his heart became clearer.
It was okay to get involved at home, but he didn't want to get involved again when he went out.
Living in this world and enjoying yourself in time is the best way!
Xu Yue looked at her father's stressed appearance, snickered, and looked out the window at the scenery.
The north land is so wide that it seems endless at first glance. Under the trees on both sides of the road, a little green emerges, and sleepy eyes are immediately baptized.
It can be said that the past few months have been a bit too fulfilling. She is engaged in textiles, building an arsenal, and studying in classes from morning to night. Xu Yue is so busy that she can't even attend to her daily morning exercises.
She originally didn't want to be busy with so many things. Now that her basic life is guaranteed, she can just stay at home and make small inventions to improve her family's life.
However, every time she saw her mother who was so busy that her feet never touched the floor, she would feel a sense of shame even though she wanted to lie down.
It seems that if I don’t do something, I will be sorry for my time-traveling identity.
That's why the current situation of emergency is out of control.
However, Xu Yue also understood what balance of work and rest meant, and many things could not be realized immediately as thought, so she followed her father's wishes and gave herself two days off.
It's not far from my new home to Gongsun Wubao. It only takes half an hour to walk a few miles.
After arriving in Wubao, Xu Yue and her father first visited Gongsun Yan's home and his aunt's home, and then the father and daughter separated.
Xu Da went to talk about business, and Xu Yue came to Tofu Fang to check the accounts and so on.
By the time I had some time to deal with these things, it was already evening.
The tenants had received the news early and were waiting for Xu Yue to come over and teach them how to weed pigs.
Now that she had some free time, Xu Yue took out her knife and rushed to the entrance of the village where the tenant farmers were gathered to start teaching.
She had no idea of hiding her skills, and the tenants were both surprised and a little scared.
I am happy that Xu Yue has devoted all his money to teach me and does not charge tuition fees.
I am afraid of the bloody craftsmanship and dare not try it on real pigs.
By the time Xu Yue's teaching came to an end, there were only a few brave farmers left.
But because exquisite knives are rare, there is only one person left who is truly qualified to learn the art of pig farming—Yu San.
How arrogant this guy was when the plague first broke out, Xu Yue had a deep prejudice against him.
Although she is now a loyal defender of her mother-in-law with a playful smile, Xu Yue always feels that this person is cunning because of her preconceptions.
If she had no other choice, she wouldn't want to teach him how to behead a pig.
Yu San also felt that Xu Yue couldn't stand him, so he chuckled and didn't say much. He only asked questions about the pig, learned what he was doing, bowed to Xu Yue, and then left sensibly.
Winter had just passed and it was getting dark quickly. Around 5:30 in the afternoon, my aunt's family sent someone over to call Xu Yue back after she had been busy at the farm all day.
Xu Yue thought her father was still at Gongsun Yan's house, but she didn't expect that he had already returned to her aunt's house.
Mrs. Liu took her two children back to her parents' home for a short stay. Only Gongsun Yu, his wife and Gongsun An were there, plus Xu Yue's father and daughter, there were only five people.
There were few people in the main hall, which seemed empty. It was brightly illuminated by rows of oil lamps. In front of the small desk, several people sat around, discussing what to do tomorrow.
Xu Yue nestled among a few adults and listened to their conversation.
Gongsun Yu and his wife knew that she was precocious, so they did not let the servants carry her down and let her listen.
A few people were talking about the heir to the second bedroom.
Xu Da has already inquired clearly from Gongsun Yan, and Gongsun Yan now has two candidates.
One is Dafang's third son, and the other is Gongsun An.
What's rare is that Gongsun Yan proposed this on his own initiative. For this reason, he specially invited Xu Da to his house to test his tone.
At this point, Xu Da also revealed some of his true thoughts. When Gongsun Yan heard this, he immediately showed a tangled look.
In fact, he himself, because of the prosperity of Xu Yue's family and the behavior of Gongsun Yu's family after his son's death, did have the idea of adopting Gongsun An.
But as soon as he expressed this idea, the second wife Yan immediately threw the bowl and expressed her resistance like crazy.
Behind Yan's family there is also the power of her mother's family. Their Yan family has a great Confucian who is quite famous.
Even the ancestry of the Gongsun family was built together with the Yan family.
Once he offended the Yan family, it would be equivalent to ending the future of the descendants of the Gongsun family. Gongsun Yan had to care about their attitude towards his stepson.
The attitude of the second wife also represents the attitude of the entire Yan family in disguise.
Seeing his wife's reaction at that time, Gongsun Yan never dared to mention the adoption of Gongsun An again.
When they met in the daytime, Xu Da immediately asked Gongsun Yan: "Does the second lady agree to let the third young master of the first house come over?"
If this is the case, Xu Dadu feels doubtful whether Gongsun An can ascend to the throne.
Fortunately, the second lady is not just targeting Gongsun An, but everyone who wants to take her son's place.
This wave of outbursts is an indiscriminate group attack.
But the real Yan family is more inclined to the third young master of the Dafang family.
