The peasant girl in Space is the group favorite

Chapter 188 The shocked Xu family

When Shopkeeper Hong received the reward secretly sent from his master, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. The two boxes of gold ingots made his eyes dazzle.

This batch of rewards was delivered by Ye Ying, the secret guard next to the master, because he was afraid that the large number of people would arouse others' suspicion.

"Master Shadow, has the master told me anything?" Shopkeeper Hong asked hurriedly.

"Master asked you to take more care of the Xu family."

"I understand, why don't you let me go to Xujia Village with you!" Shopkeeper Hong said.

Ye Ying nodded, and after shopkeeper Hong arranged the affairs of the store, they went to Xujiacun together.

When they came to Xujia Village, they attracted the attention of many working villagers.

"This carriage is really impressive. I wonder whose home you are going to when you come to our Xujia Village?"

Uncle Xu and his three brothers saw that the man driving the carriage seemed familiar. Uncle Xu said, "Isn't this the night shadow next to Jing Chen?"

Uncle Xu took a closer look and it was true.

Ye Ying also saw the Xu family, so he stopped the carriage. Shopkeeper Hong got out of the carriage and said, "Boss, is the old man at home?"

Uncle Xu immediately said: "At home, let's go, I will take you back together."

The three brothers followed the carriage towards the Xu family's house.

The villagers all knew Shopkeeper Hong and thought his arrival was normal, so they started to work.

The old man had just had lunch and was playing chess with Uncle Fu.

Seeing his three sons coming in, he said, "Didn't you just go to work? Why are you back again?"

"Dad, shopkeeper Hong is here, and Mr. Yeying, the secret guard next to Jingchen, is also here." Mr. Xu said.

"Could it be that Jingchen came to Huamen Town? Where is he? Take me there." The old man said.

"We should be at the door by now. I ran back ahead of them." Boss Xu said breathlessly.

When the old man came to the door, he saw Ye Ying parking the carriage in front of his house.

"Hello, old man. I'm here to deliver some things on your orders." Ye Ying jumped out of the carriage and said with fists in his hands.

The old man was a little strange. He didn't know what Jingchen sent him.

The women of the Xu family also heard the noise, so they all came to the door.

Wang called Ye Ying and asked quickly: "Jingchen, didn't he come?"

"Our young master still has things to do in the capital, so he can't get away, so I'm the only one here." Ye Ying said.

"Come in quickly, you must be tired after driving the carriage from the capital for a long time, right?" Wang said.

Shopkeeper Hong also got out of the carriage and said, "There's no rush to rest. It's not too late to move the things out of the carriage and then rest. Otherwise, I won't be at ease."

The Xu family members were also a little confused, but they didn't ask any more questions and called two servants to come over and help.

After moving all the things into the main hall, the old man asked the doubts in his heart: "Brother Yeying, what is in this box? Why should it be sent to our Xu family?"

Yeying said: "Old man, this is a letter written by the young master. You will understand it after reading it." After speaking, he took out the letter from his arms.

The old man took the envelope, opened it and read it. The more he looked, the more surprised and shocked he became.

After reading the letter in his hand, he didn't react for a long time.

Wang asked anxiously: "Old man, what do you say in this letter?" The old man said: "I will tell you later." Then he said to Ye Ying: "Thank you young master for me."

Ye Ying said: "Master said that the Xu family is his benefactor, and he can repay the Xu family's kindness by doing this."

The old man said: "It can't be regarded as any kind of kindness. It's just a small effort. How about Brother Yeying staying for dinner in the evening?"

Ye Ying said: "Thank you for your kindness, old man, but I have to go back quickly. Master can't live without people, and there are still many things for me to do."

The old man said: "In that case, I remember that Jingchen likes our jam, so you can bring more of it back this time as a token of my appreciation."

Qibao didn't speak at the side. He looked at these mahogany boxes, which were covered with a layer of copper rivets. He knew at a glance that the wood was not ordinary wood, and the things inside must be very valuable.

Mrs. Wang asked her maid to bring many boxes of jams of various flavors, as well as some home-made snacks.

The old man said: "There is nothing we can give out at home, only these foods that cannot be bought outside so that your young master can try them."

"Master, the things in your house are all in line with my young master's taste. As the saying goes, it's hard to buy what you like," Ye Ying said.

After loading the things on the carriage, Ye Ying said goodbye, and shopkeeper Tong also went back together.

After everyone left, Mrs. Wang asked: "Old man, everyone has left, what did Jing Chen say in the letter?"

The old man said: "Jing Chen said these are gifts from the emperor to our family, so we must keep them safe."

"What? Your Majesty... Your Majesty? Are you confused? Old man, what is going on here?" When Wang heard the word "Emperor", her legs and feet started to shake.

This is the Nine-Five Master!How could it have anything to do with farmers like them!

"This matter has something to do with Qibao, because last time Qibao contributed a prescription to treat coughs, Jingchen gave the prescription to the emperor, and the emperor was happy to give our family a reward." The old man said.

"How did Jingchen meet the emperor? Who is he?" Wang asked.

"I don't know. I didn't mention it in the letter. I guess I knew someone important in the capital and that's why I sent the prescription to the Holy One," the old man said.

Mrs. Wang was so excited that she hugged Qibao and kissed him several times, saying: "Naughty Qibao is so powerful. If it weren't for your prescription, how could our old Xu family have fallen into the eyes of the emperor? God bless! Qibao is so powerful." This lucky doll was sent to our Xu family, the old lady is very grateful!" After saying this, she bowed to God.

It would be no exaggeration to say that Zhang's sister-in-law and three brothers, Brother Xu, looked dumbfounded.

Your Majesty!Oh my goodness, he is the most noble person in their Dragon Soul Kingdom!They never dreamed that one day they would be rewarded by the emperor.

The old man said: "Jing Chen said in the letter that he was afraid that we would be missed by someone with intentions. For the safety of our family, no one else knows about these rewards."

"Yes, I understand the principle of making a fortune silently, but I don't know what is in this box." Wang said.

Qibao said: "Grandma, won't you know if you open it and take a look?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang reached out and opened the lid of the box...

"Wait a minute! This is a gift from the emperor. Since we can't thank the emperor in person, we can't live without this respect." After the old man finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of the capital.

Seeing this, the rest of the Xu family, except Qibao, all knelt down on the ground, including the serving maids and servants.

After everyone had finished bowing, Xu Erbo rubbed his hands and was about to open the box...

"Pah!" The old man reached out and slapped his son on the back of his hand.

"Dad, why did you hit me?" Uncle Xu touched the back of his hand which was red from being beaten.

"Are there any rules anymore? Shouldn't it be me, the head of the family, who can open it with my own hands to express our Xu family's respect for the emperor?" the old man said.
