Chapter 248 Return Date
"got it."

Someone interrupted her.

"Okay, if you don't understand anything, just ask me in a day or two." Su Nanzhen ended the topic wisely.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, Li was bringing someone to toast her, Su Nanzhen drank tea instead of wine for a round before giving up.

The man is still drinking and talking.

After muttering for a while, a woman came to ask Su Nanzhen some questions, and she answered them one by one.

There was a lot of joy at the banquet, and there was no intention of dispersing it until the sound of fighting sounded, and everyone woke up like a dream.

"Don't act rashly." Knowing Yao Dan's arrangement, Guan Li stopped the crowd loudly, leaving nearly half of the men to protect the women and children, and the rest followed him back to the village to see what was going on.

Qu Lizheng also made the same arrangement, leading people back to the village to see if there was any shortage of food.

"I haven't even eaten my potatoes yet."

"Haven't you eaten? You are the one who eats the most."

"..."

Su Nanzhen took a friendly look at the noisy people, hugged Eggy, and waited quietly.

Until Li Zheng sent someone to say that the horse thief had been caught, and everyone suddenly boiled.

"What's the fuss, take your belongings home." Mrs. Guan yelled loudly.

The people who were rushing home just now stopped, some returned, some had already started to identify their own things, and after a little fuss, they packed up their things and hurried home.

Mu Furong also went back with a table and two benches.

Su Nanzhen was holding a basket of bowls and chopsticks, and walked ahead holding Dandan's hand.

Ah Wu was the only person in the family, and it seemed that someone had fought here.

"Has the horse thief been here?" Su Nanzhen asked casually, looking at the crooked radishes and Chinese cabbage.

"Master, you are a big family." Ah Wu said solemnly.

In fact, it was horse thieves who marked the outside of several houses. Yao Dan marked them too, because he had to take care of Xiangxi Village and Lindong Village, and the manpower available was limited, so he had to distribute some of the pressure to Ah Wu and the others. .

Su Nanzhen knew about this, but he didn't say anything just to confirm that Tudou was not affected.

Hearing the sound of horse thieves swearing and shouting from a distance, and the excitement of the villagers shouting and killing, she asked Mu Furong to close the door.

Yao Dan got his wish by inviting Jun into the urn, and the people in Lindong Village and Xiangxi Village can also live a peaceful life.

The officers and soldiers escorted the captured horse thief and joined Yao Dan and the others at the place where the banquet was originally held.

Traveling at night is risky, Yao Dan plans to escort the horse thief to the Yamen for trial tomorrow morning.

This time, he was able to successfully catch most of the horse thieves, and he finally fulfilled his mission. He would not have been able to do this without the opportunity provided by Su Nanzhen. Not to mention his own life, he made great contributions one after another.

If it wasn't for his responsibilities, if it wasn't for the night, he really hoped to thank her face to face.

However, at dawn he escorted the thief into the city, and he didn't even have a chance to say goodbye to her, he just hoped that he could go on the same way before she returned to Yanjing.

When the villagers went out, the officers, soldiers and horse thieves had disappeared, but they were still talking about the thrilling capture scene last night and how excited they were to see the lost potatoes.

After this incident, the villagers probably realized that having too many potatoes in their hands would be missed by thieves. Although the horse thieves had been caught, there were still fish that slipped through the net, and there were still petty thieves. Basically, they all agreed to sell the potatoes to the government.

They don't sell all of them, they keep some of them for themselves, and it's up to them to sell the rest, save the seeds, or do something else.

Su Yihuan discussed with the villagers how much they wanted to sell, and discussed with Lizheng when he would come to the East Village again, before going to Su Nanzhen.

She was dealing with the remaining potatoes, and Su Yihuan also went to help.

"Is everything settled?" Seeing him relaxed, Su Nanzhen knew that the matter should be resolved.

"It's settled, I can't hide anything from you." Su Yihuan said happily, "Have you decided when to go back? I want you to bring something back to your mother."

"Tomorrow, let Ah Wu talk to someone from the Escort Bureau today." Su Nanzhen thought about it, and sadly announced the return date.

"It's time to find an escort to accompany you on a trip. From Yanzhou to Yanjing, the journey is long, and there may be thieves making trouble." Su Yihuan felt a lot in his heart when he heard her arrangement.

"Well, uncle, you have to have a meal with me in a while before going back to the Yamen." Su Nanzhen glanced at the sun, it was not time to cook, and he could still prepare well.

"No, no, it's time for me to go back to the Yamen." But Su Yihuan stopped her, there were other things waiting for him to deal with in the Yamen, although he didn't say it couldn't be done without him, but he couldn't do it without his participation.

"Okay, then don't worry about it." Su Nanzhen didn't want to keep him anymore, and asked Mu Furong to fetch some water to wash his hands, urging him to go back early.

Su Yihuan was not polite to her either, and left with only a few words of advice.

Ah Wu didn't come back until after dinner, and brought back Yao Dan's message, as well as the contract signed with the Escort.

After reading the contract, Su Nanzhen found that there was no problem, so he took it away.

One more person helped to pack the remaining potatoes and waited for the escorts to come.

Su Nanzhen took Dandan to see the potato flour made by other villagers. Except for a family whose water was muddied by the skin child at home, everyone else could pour out the water.

The rest of the steps are not difficult. Su Nanzhen smiled and said to Mrs. Guan, "Look, it's not difficult after what I've said, and I don't have anything to teach you. I plan to go home tomorrow."

"So urgent." Mrs. Guan said in surprise.

"I can't help with the spring plowing. The government needs time to bring the potatoes back. I hope that Yanjing can plant them again a year ago."

"Old lady, I know that you are a person who does great things, okay, I know, I will ask the big guy to hold a farewell party for you."

It was Su Nanzhen's good words that made her dispel the idea.

There was a celebration banquet just now, and now there is a farewell banquet, which is a bit of a waste of time and money.

Moreover, the spring plowing has already started, and every household is busy, and she doesn't want to add to the chaos at this time.

After coming out of Lizheng's house, Su Nanzhen went home to tidy up.

Originally, there was nothing, but after coming here, she bought a lot of things. She took everything she could take away, but she couldn't take it away, so she had to give it away.

"Can I bring this?" Eggy asked her while holding a wooden sword.

"Take it if you like it." Su Nanzhen glanced at it and nodded.

"Where's the rabbit?" Eggy asked again.

"Aren't you afraid that it will run away on the road?" Su Nanzhen took a deep breath, and seeing him shaking his head was really reluctant, so he agreed, "Have you packed your things?"

"It's packed." Eggy said proudly as she patted her small box.

Su Nanzhen opened it and checked it, and found a large bag of food from the box, "This can't be put together with clothes and those."

"I want to take it back to Daddy." Eggy begged pitifully.
