Farming and Raising Cubs (III)

Chapter 319: Return to Beijing

　　"Okay." Old man Zhang stood up to see them off.

　　He was just being polite. He felt embarrassed to treat others to such simple meals here.

　　And with Zhang Yingzi around, it's even more inconvenient.

　　When Li Mumu and Gu Shangqing walked out, Zhang Yingzi couldn't help but quietly open the door, leaving a crack, and secretly looked at Gu Shangqing.

　　Gu Shangqing heard the voice, but did not stop. He pretended not to notice and left with Li Mumu without looking back.

　　Old man Zhang sent the two men out of the yard and watched them get on the carriage. He waited until he could no longer see the people in their carriage before he went back.

　　As soon as I entered the house, I saw Zhang Yingzi sitting at the table with tears in her eyes.

　　Although she had not gone out just now, after Gu Shangqing went to the yard, Zhang Yingzi came out of the room, secretly opened the window a little, and watched Gu Shangqing's back as he left the yard.

　　I also saw that even though he was injured, he still protected Li Mumu into the carriage first, and then he was helped in by others.

　　Gu Shangqing entered the carriage without even turning his head once.

　　After getting into the carriage, Zhang Yingzi could no longer see Gu Shangqing.

　　But she couldn't help but keep looking, and she didn't close the window until the carriage disappeared.

　　At this time, Old Man Zhang came back and saw Zhang Yingzi standing by the window as soon as he entered the door.

　　"Yingzi, you just heard what General Gu and Madam Gu said. Don't think about those things that are visible and intangible from high up." Old man Zhang said.

　　"It was Madam Gu who was talking just now. General Gu didn't say anything." Zhang Yingzi still denied it.

　　Old Man Zhang sighed and said, "General Gu has let Madam Gu speak for him. Isn't that a tacit agreement? That means Madam Gu's words are what General Gu means!"

　　"Yingzi, let's not look for things that don't belong to us." Old Man Zhang said, "And don't write to General Gu."

　　After saying this, Old Man Zhang paused, and suddenly remembered that Zhang Yingzi was illiterate.

　　Then Old Man Zhang said, "Madam Gu gave us a lot of money before, and this time she also gave us a house and a shop."

　　"I know that if we stay here forever, it will be like this forever." Old Man Zhang said, "There was no other way before, and I didn't have the ability. We have food, drink and clothes here, and we can live here forever."

　　"But now we have money,

　　The house and the shop in the city." Old man Zhang said, "We don't know how to do business, so I thought we could rent out the shop, and with the money given by Madam Gu, it would be enough."

　　"After we move to the city, I will find a female teacher to teach you how to read and write. We will also learn what the ladies of wealthy families know. I will also be able to find a good husband for you in the future." said Old Man Zhang.

　　Zhang Yingzi's face flushed, and she understood why Old Man Zhang paused after he told her not to write to Gu Shangqing.

　　But what's the use?

　　Those people are not Gu Shangqing.

　　Moreover, Gu Shangqing, Doctor Lu, and Eunuch Pan all came from the capital.
