The guard walked gently to Xu Yue, who was watching the twins taking a nap, and reported in a low voice.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the whole family dispersed and went to other states and counties for condolences and inspections. Only Xu Yue stayed in Hejian with her twins.
Upon hearing the guard's report, Xu Yue put down the letter Zhuge Liang sent from Liangzhou, nodded lightly, and motioned to the guard to take the person to the hall.
After watching the guards leave, I glanced at my nephew who was sleeping soundly, asked someone to come over and watch, got up and walked towards the hall.
Sun Shangxiang and his wife had already arrived. Seeing Xu Yue come in, the couple who had just sat down were about to get up.
"Sit down." Xu Yue smiled faintly at the two of them, indicating that they didn't need to be so polite.
The couple looked at each other and continued to sit down.
Sun Shangxiang mentioned the fresh fruits on the table and said with a smile: "A batch of fresh fruits have just been sent from the south. They are big and sweet. They are given to the chiefs and the sons of gods to try."
"Thank you." Xu Yue asked the guard to take down the fruit, wash it and bring it to the table. The three of them ate and talked.
"You two are coming here now to tell me about returning to Yangzhou, right?" Xu Yue took a bite of the freshly washed pear, which was sour, sweet and juicy. She took another bite and said, "You guys can eat it too."
The couple held the pears but did not move them. Yuan Er spoke and expressed that he wanted to take some members of the Yuan clan back to Yangzhou with Sun Shangxiang.
Xu Yue knew clearly in her heart that the couple was preparing to return to Yangzhou for a big fight.
"The Yuan clan is free. They can go wherever they want. You don't have to ask me, Yuan Er." Xu Yue said with a generous smile.
She was confident about her control over the Yuan family, and letting a group of people follow Yuan Er away would not have much impact.
Even if they have many ideas, Xu Mei and the others are still here in Yangzhou. As long as Yuan Er is not a fool, they will know what he should and should not do.
What's more, the main power of the Yuan clan is still in the hands of Yuan Song. The only two brothers Yuan and Yuan can control are those from the collateral clan.
When Yuan Er heard Xu Yue's words, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want to use the power of his wife's family to revive the Yuan family, he just wanted to bring in more people to help his wife gain a foothold in the Sun family.
After two years away from home, Sun Shangxiang is a woman again, and I am afraid that she has no voice in the family.
But she had made up her mind not to go back to Yangzhou. As long as she went back, she would break out of the world!
She is the legitimate daughter of the Sun family, and she should have a share of Nuo's large family property no matter what!
Of course, Sun Shangxiang did not want to rebel against her brother, she just wanted to recreate the freedom of women that she felt with Xu Jiajun in Yangzhou.
Seeing that Xu Yue was so easy to talk to, Sun Shangxiang thought for a while, stood up and begged boldly:
"I wonder if the leader can give me two people?"
"As a gift?" Xu Yue paused while chewing a pear and asked curiously: "Who do you like?"
There is hope! Sun Shangxiang suppressed his excitement and said as calmly as possible: "Liang Han and Gongsun Yi."
Xu Yue put down the half-eaten pear, raised her eyes to see the trace of anxiety under Sun Shangxiang's calm face, and said softly: "You are good at picking people."
Liang Han was a member of the Liang family in Youzhou and one of the first generation of trench gentry to join the Xu family army.
Her brother is Boya, who was classmates with Xu Yue.
Now Boya and other former classmates, as well as the teacher's descendants of the Yan family, have become one of the core forces of the Xu family army.
They did a lot for the Xu Jiajun. The trench gentry like the Liang family were the vanguard of the Xu Jiajun in revitalizing the commercial economy.
Old aristocrats from a scholarly family like the Yan family, because of the existence of Xu Yue's master Yan Daru, have also taken on the task of educating the people of the Xu family army. Over the years, I don't know how much fresh blood has been imported into the Xu family army.
As for Gongsun Yi, this kid is even more incredible now.
Xu Yue remembered that the last time she heard her little cousin's name was at the outstanding official selection meeting last month.
My cousin Gongsun An is mainly responsible for the national grain production issues and the cultivation of hybrid rice.
After my cousin Gongsun Yi was admitted to the civil service system and became a grassroots official, he worked as a grassroots official in the Grain Department for two years. He was half an agricultural expert.
This year, under his leadership, several counties in Jizhou ushered in a bumper harvest with the promotion of new varieties of sweet potatoes. In the minds of the people of Jizhou, he is like Shennong.
That's why Xu Yuecai said that Sun Shangxiang is also very good at asking for people.
One is engaged in economics and the other is engaged in agriculture. They are both leaders in their respective industries. Xu Yueguang felt so painful that he wanted to gasp just thinking about sending these two people away.
Sun Shangxiang's heart skipped a beat when she saw that Xu Yue didn't respond and didn't eat the pears.
However, if she gives up without fighting for it, she will regret it for the rest of her life!
Sun Shangxiang took the initiative and said: "Chief, Yangzhou seems to be wealthy, but in fact, compared with Jizhou and Youzhou, it is far behind."
"Especially in recent years, under the construction of the Xu Jiajun, the commerce in Hebei, You and other prefectures and counties has developed rapidly, and agriculture has also achieved staged successes. The people live in peace and contentment. From not having enough food and clothing to being warm, they can now have enough food.
Dress warmly, I felt really sad when I saw it."
"Because the people in my hometown still don't have enough to eat, and countless people freeze to death and starve to death every year. It's really difficult for a region to become strong without money or food."
Sun Shangxiang's eyes turned red when he mentioned his hometown.
The two years since she came to Xu Jiajun can be said to be the happiest two years of her life.
But just because she was so happy, she felt guilty every time she thought of the local people who were still suffering.
How much she hopes that the people in Yangzhou can live as good a life as the people in Jizhou?
At least, no more people will die from hunger and cold.
Sun Shangxiang said sincerely: "The Xu family army and the people of Yangzhou all hope that the world will be unified as soon as possible and stay away from war. Chief, I believe we can achieve our common goal!"
After hearing what Sun Shangxiang said, Xu Yue finally heard what she wanted to hear.
As the saying goes, if you don't want to give up your children, you can't catch the wolf. She can still afford to borrow two talents.
"Borrow?" Sun Shangxiang frowned slightly, what she just said was as a gift.
However, he also knew that the possibility of Xu Yue giving such a talent to him was almost zero, so Sun Shangxiang smiled and thanked him without mentioning the word gift again.
"When do you plan to leave? If you are not busy then, I will see you off." Xu Yue stood up, came to the couple, and asked with a smile.
Sun Shangxiang and Yuan Er looked at each other, overjoyed.
"In mid-September, when Master Gongsun Hao's ship arrives, we will take the ship home." Yuan Er replied.
Xu Yue nodded and said that she understood, and she would definitely come when she had time. She asked the couple to go home to prepare first, and she had to go to those two people before she could tell them.
There is a high probability that the other party will refuse.
"But don't worry, I will convince them." Xu Yue looked like I was trying my best.
