People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

Chapter 167 Chapter 167: Arriving home and changes in the city

It is easy to deceive oneself but difficult to deceive others by covering one's ears and stealing other people's bells.

Cai Xiaolan's statement that she ignored her buttocks obviously couldn't convince others.Everyone fell asleep with deep doubts.And she herself was filled with doubts, but Leng Ji's way of life prevented her from asking Li Wei for clarification.

The night passed peacefully.

Fortunately, the days and nights that followed were Christmas Eve.Except for once he ran the wrong way, twice he fell into a ditch, three times the wheel ran away, four times the horse bucked, five times...

"Look!" Xu Xiaoqin, who was sitting on the shaft of the car, suddenly screamed.

Everyone who was taking a nap in the back was startled and shook, "What's going on?"

Xu Yinlian opened the door curtain and looked at her daughter anxiously.But she saw her finger pointing to a tall branch in front of her.

There is a faded and broken flag on the branch, fluttering in the wind.

The six characters "relieve summer heat", "rest" and "meal" are vaguely visible.

Xu Yinlian, who couldn't read, recognized these six characters at a glance, "Xiaolan——"

Before she could finish her words, she choked up.

"what happened?"

"Got home!"

"Ok?"

"Heavenly blessing gathers wealth to live in!"

"ah!"

Cai Xiaolan opened the door and looked up, overjoyed for a moment, "Hahaha——"

"We're home!"

After talking about the Tianfu Jucai Residence for a long time, when they arrived in front of them, one can imagine how everyone felt.As soon as the whip was whipped down, the sound of horse hooves became much louder.

Compared with the long journey, the last two miles that can be seen are really difficult to walk.Everyone was eager to get to the entrance of the archway immediately.

……

"Hey, look, how come it's so clean, not even a weed?" Jiang Lihua's sharp eyes could spot something unusual at a glance.

Everyone else also saw a problem. Xu Yinlian took out the key, ran a few steps, and poked the key in the butt, but failed to get it in several times.

"The locks have been changed!" she exclaimed.

Toyokura frowned, rushed to the side, asked for the key, but didn't push it in.He picked up the lock, fumbled it up and down, and sighed.

"It doesn't look like it has been replaced, it must be rusty!"

"How come the courtyard is so clean, as if someone lives there regularly?" Jiang Lihua didn't turn around. Since the lock hadn't been picked, how did that person get in?
The mixed bamboo and wood courtyard walls of Tianfu Jucai Residence are enough to protect gentlemen, let alone thieves.

Fengcang took a stone and broke the door lock.Everyone drove the carriage inside. Once inside the house, they could see more clearly.

Cai Xiaolan got off the carriage and touched around inside and outside the house.It's hard to say it's spotless, but it definitely doesn't look like it has been empty for a month or two.

There was no big dust in the corners, but there was a layer of floating dust on the stove top.

Xu Yinlian pushed the door of the side room.Cover it up and don't push it away.

Seeing this scene, her old enemy Jiang Lihua couldn't help but sneered, "You said you were so weak that you couldn't even open the door!"

He walked quickly to the front and kicked the door, which opened with a sound.

The smell of dust and musty was overwhelming.Jiang Lihua, who was at the front, took a mouthful of ashes.

"What's going on in this house?"

"There must be kind-hearted people helping us take care of the things around us. There is nothing outside, so it is easy for people to move around. As for the inside of the house, it is difficult to clean. And if you haven't looked carefully, they even helped plant vegetables in the backyard. !”

Cai Xiaolan explained in time, fearing that it would cause another "shocking war".

Everyone stopped complaining and tidied up together.On the first day, it was getting late and it was inconvenient to clean in depth, so everyone spent the night in the lobby.

At dawn, they took out everything inside and outside and dried it in the sun.

Cai Xiaolan drove into the city alone.

There is no food in the house, so I have to buy some.And she had to go see what happened in the city during the three years she left.

The speed of the carriage was several times that of the donkey carriage, and it galloped all the way to the south gate.The south gate has long since returned to its pre-flood appearance.There was an endless flow of people coming and going, and carriages of all colors and sizes.

It is in line with the half-quel: the southeast is beautiful, the three Wu cities, Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times, with willow-painted bridges, wind curtains and green curtains, and 10 homes.Clouds and trees surround the dike and sand, raging waves roll up frost and snow, and the sky is boundless.The city is lined with pearls, the households are full of luxury, and the luxury is high.

After three years of separation, Cai Xiaolan suddenly felt a little strange about Yangzhou.

"How about going to Ximen to take a look?" An idea came to her mind.The original settlement area for disaster victims was of great use. If she were a politician, she would not give up so much labor.

Sure enough, Ximen’s life is very full of flavor.

The house, which was used to house residents three years ago, was neat and serious when it was built.Later it fell into disrepair.But now, it has been renovated again. Although it is not as tidy as before, it is better than having a strong sense of life.

Smoke rises from every house.

"I really guessed it!" Cai Xiaolan laughed from the bottom of her heart and rode forward.

There are also changes in the city.Businesses everywhere are much more organized.

"It seems that Yangzhou City has welcomed a good official who knows how to benefit the people!" Cai Xiaolan secretly admired.

The tofu shop is still there, but its name has been changed.All the way in, Babao Zhai is still there.Judging from the endless flow of people at the door, the new boss is definitely a capable person.

Seeing this, Cai Xiaolan shouted to the horse to go back to the west gate, and went straight to the west gate branch of Shengshi Food Store.

"Pick Xiaolan?" Jing Guangli looked in disbelief.I don't know whether he was unsure about the rapid passage of time or the changes in the appearance of the people in front of him.

"Jing Shaodong's house, why don't you just ask me to stand at the door!" Cai Xiaolan seemed to have returned to three years ago.

"Quick, come inside! You look so bright!" Jing Guangli gave a thumbs up.

When he arrived at the parlor inside the grain store, he quickly served hot tea and said, "Three years of Lingnan Road, you must have worked hard. Tell me, what things have you encountered?"

"This is all a trivial matter. I will talk about it slowly when I have the opportunity in the future. Please also tell me about what happened in Yangzhou City."

Jing Guangli couldn't hide anything in front of Cai Xiaolan, so he recounted the major events that had happened in Yangzhou City in the past three years one by one.

After all, he is a businessman and is very articulate.In just a moment, Cai Xiaolan understood the current situation in Yangzhou City.

The tofu industry is developing very well, but it has not formed a large-scale industry and is all small workshops.However, Li Qishi passed the examination and was transferred to the capital to serve as an official.The new governor, whose surname is Lu, is open-minded and a good official.

"You don't know, Babaozhai is just like a golden chicken that lays eggs. The person who took over-" Jing Guangli was talking happily, but was suddenly interrupted by the voice outside the room.

A woman in a bright red skirt broke into the living room and shouted to Jing Guangli who was sitting at the head of the table, "Jing Guangli, you--"

"Miao'er, don't do anything yet. This is the hero among women I told you - Cai Xiaolan!"
