The carriage rattled along, and because there was no lunch break, Geng Xingchen was a little sleepy, leaning on Bai Zhi's shoulder, drowsy.

Although Geng Xingshuang also felt that her eyelids were a bit heavy, Jin Bao's words lifted her spirits.

"Girl, the village we entered just now is called Xiaozao Village, and there will be another Dazao Village in the past, and the village where Zhuangzi in the mansion is located is called Zaoshu Village. of."

"By the way, there is something about the fourth sister, I almost forgot!"

Geng Xingchen, who had already set up the chessboard with Duke Zhou, immediately opened his eyes and sat up straight because of Jin Bao's words.

Jin Bao was stunned for a moment, "Miss Seven, did the servant girl wake you up because of her loud voice?"

Geng Xingchen shook his head, "No, it's just that when I heard you talking about the fourth sister, my mind cleared up."

"Jin Bao, go on and say that Seventh Sister was awakened by her own curiosity."

Geng Xingshuang still doesn't know much about Geng Xingbing's matter, and she has nothing to hide from Geng Xingchen. After discussing with them, they might be able to come up with something.

"That's right, what else did Fourth Sister ask?" Geng Xingchen quickly agreed.

"The fourth girl asked, why is there no one living in the first family in Xiaozao Village? Where are the people now? The aunt said that the family's surname was Tao, and the head of the household was Tao Rong. Years ago, the old lady in the family was sick first, and spent a lot of money but failed to get cured, and finally went. Not long after the old lady went, this lady Tao fell ill again, and she was lingering on the sick bed, and almost died. The doctor passed by and gave her acupuncture to save her life. However, the doctor said that Mrs. Tao’s disease not only needs to be treated with medicine, but also requires acupuncture and moxibustion every few days. The doctor in the hospital couldn’t do anything about Mrs. Tao’s illness, and the Tao family had a child who was studying and needed to find a school, so in the end their family simply locked the door of the old house in the village and moved the family to Ningdu City.”

"Moved to Ningdu? That's not bad? It means that their family still has some family background."

Geng Xingchen said, although she is a young lady of the Bofu, she also knows that it is not easy to live in Ningdu.

Jin Bao said: "That's not true. The Tao family originally had little land, but because the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fell ill one after another, most of the land was sold. The reason why they were able to live in Ningdu was not only because Tao Rong was able to endure hardship. Now they are working as coolies in Ningdu City, carrying big bags. The most important thing is that they have a daughter who once won the favor of a chef in this village who came back from Ningdu City to retire in the village, and taught her the skill of cooking. Miss Tao is now in charge of a restaurant in Ningdu City, earning more money than her father, and because of this, the family has barely settled down in Ningdu."

As soon as Jin Bao said these words, Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen looked at each other, and a name appeared in their minds at the same time.

After a while, Geng Xingchen tentatively said, "Why does this matter sound like Master Tao from Ruyilou? Sixth sister, do you think it's her?"

Geng Xingshuang didn't answer Geng Xingchen immediately, but asked: "Did you tell me the name of that Miss Tao?"

Jin Bao laughed and said, "I didn't say her full name, I just heard that aunt call her Xiaoyu."

The first time Jin Bao heard this conversation, she thought of Master Tao from Ruyilou, but because she was not sure, she first repeated what Geng Xingbing and the peasant woman had said.

"Then it must be Master Xiaotao. The name, experience, and age all match. It turns out that Master Xiaotao is from Xiaozao Village."

Geng Xingchen didn't know what he was happy about. After being excited for a while, he suddenly thought, "It's just why the sixth sister wants to inquire about the Tao family?"

Jin Bao shook his head, "The Fourth Miss didn't say anything, she first exchanged greetings with that aunt, and then it was like casually talking about the Tao family. Then she explained the situation of the Tao family clearly."

Geng Xingshuang recalled Tao Yuyu's appearance in his mind. Although her skin was not too white and she didn't have extra makeup, she could still see that she had a beautiful appearance and beautiful features.

The second aunt Yao's appearance is ordinary, and the second uncle looks good, but Master Xiaoyu doesn't look like the second uncle, nor does he look like the second aunt in any way, let alone anyone in their uncle's house.

Of course, Geng Xingbing is not like his second uncle and aunt, but there are many children who do not look like their parents, so this does not mean anything. The Dows, then...

"Sixth sister, what are you thinking about? So preoccupied?"

Geng Xingshuang came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I just feel that the fourth sister has been a little weird recently."

Geng Xingchen agreed very much, "However, the most strange thing to me is that the fourth sister actually agreed to the marriage of the third room of the Yang family. The fourth master Yang is not the sixth master Yang. From the perspective of the fourth sister, she must have looked down on Yang before. For fourth master, not to mention that fourth master Yang will return to the Deng family in the future, but only in terms of appearance, talent and learning, fourth master Yang will not be in the eyes of fourth sister."

As he said that, Geng Xingchen thought of Geng Cheng who was still lying on the bed, and most likely he would be lying on the bed in the future, and said: "But now that the second uncle is so seriously injured, he will definitely not be able to be an official in the future. It seems that Fourth Master Yang may also be good."

What Geng Xingchen said was very realistic, but it was not unreasonable.

But Geng Xingbing didn't have the ability to predict, so this matter is still very strange.

In another carriage, Geng Xingbing and Geng Xingshui were sitting opposite each other. The atmosphere between the two sisters was a bit strange. Although they occasionally smiled and said a few words, the maids of the two, Ping Shan and Shen Liu, both felt that the two sisters were in the carriage. The atmosphere was so weird and depressing that the two of them were cautious in doing things.

Shen Shan was not afraid of Geng Xingshui at first, not only was he not, but even sarcastically from time to time, but for some reason, after Geng Xingshui recognized his relatives, in just over two months, she gradually lost the humility she had when she was a maid. Cowardly and cautious, but dignified and generous, when looking at these maidservants, the eyes seemed to be contemptuous, Ping Shan looked at it unhappily, and wanted to talk to the fourth girl several times, but the fourth girl was not the same as before, she I opened my mouth several times, but I didn't dare to complain.

When the Bofu group arrived at the foot of Daling Mountain, it was already Shenchu ​​time, and the carriage went directly to the village of Bofu in Zaoshu Village.

Zhuangzi is not big, so many people came all at once, and they are all the masters. The stewards and the stewardesses in the Zhuangzi are very busy. After finally getting settled, it is almost time for dinner.

After dinner, Geng Xingshuang was really tired this day. He was going to walk around, but he felt his back was sore and his legs were weak. The last thing he thought about it was that he might have to walk a lot tomorrow, so he still wanted to save some energy Bar.

Jin Bao was full of energy, and because Geng Xingshuang was protected by Zhan Pei, she went out for a walk with peace of mind. After being tired all day, Geng Xingshuang went to bed early. As for when Jin Bao came back, she had no idea. have no idea.

On the second morning, when he was woken up before dawn, Geng Xingshuang once again affirmed in his heart the practice of going to bed early last night.

Although Mrs. Uncle didn't let them walk up the mountain, but when they reached the halfway up the mountain and the carriage could no longer go up, she only asked the servants to hire three sliders, and she, Yao Shi and Geng Xingbing sat on one each. Geng Shulou is physically strong and has also practiced martial arts, so naturally he doesn't need to use a sliding pole to go up. As for the women and children of the first and third families...
