The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn - Chapter 345
Chapter 345 Gift
Editor:
It seemed that Great Qi was already prepared. Li Yu sighed and sat on the chair, missing Zhou Jia a little. Only things that could be recorded in writing were recorded here. She had to ask Zhou Jia about the secret. Li Yu thought that there were only a few days left until the beginning of September, so she could only leave according to her plan.
In Yunzhou’s garrison office, Shen Shuo sent a letter of danger to Yunzhou and sent another team to Mount Spindle.
After discussing with a few subordinates, they began to gather their men. After dark, they followed the route Li Yu had mentioned and advanced towards Mount Spindle.
Ruyi, Ah Wei, and Da Shui drove the ox cart and carriage back to the government office with the food. Everyone placed the food in the cellar. Ruyi said to Ah Wei, “Ah Wei, bring Uncle Shui and the others back to bring the food over. I’ll go to the shop to buy something.”
“Got it, Brother Ruyi.” Ah Wei nodded and led them to the manor.
Ruyi went to a few grocery stores and medicinal herbs to buy a cart of saltpeter and sulfur. He even ordered a few hundred catties of rapeseed oil. The grocery store owner smiled and teased, “Steward Zhou, is your old master going to change professions and refine pills?”
Ruyi laughed loudly and said, “If Old Master orders it, we’ll buy it. We can’t make him unhappy!”
“That’s true! Your Old Master is capable.” The shopkeeper helped Ruyi move the things to the car and instructed, “Tell your Old Master to be careful when refining pills. It’ll be troublesome if the house is burned down.”
“Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper.” Ruyi cupped his hands at the shopkeeper and drove the cart to the backyard door of the government office. The waiter who delivered the oil drove the cart behind him and returned to the government office. Ruyi stored the saltpeter and sulfur in the back wing and the rapeseed oil in the kitchen.
Old Madam Liu looked at the so much rapeseed oil and smiled. “Brother Ruyi, are we selling food?”
Ruyi smiled. “It’s not that Madam wants to sell food. Old Master brought a letter back and said that he is learning how to refine pills from a Taoist priest. He wanted these things.”
Old Madam Liu laughed when she heard that. “Those taoists like to refine pills for immortality!”
Ruyi came out of the back office and went to the winery to buy two hundred catties of strong wine before going to the blacksmith shop. He ran through the blacksmith shops in Yunzhou City and paid a high price to order small arrows for crossbows, bows, and other things before returning to the back office to put the strong wine in the cellar. Ruyi did not know that someone had followed him all the way. When he saw Ruyi return to the back office, he turned around and went to the Four Seas Bank.
Yangyang knew that he was going back to the city and sat there unhappily. Li Yu touched his little face and carried him to sit on her knee. “Son, think about it. It’s about to get cold. Father wakes up two hours early to return to the government office to work. Let’s return to the government office to stay so that Father can sleep a little longer. Don’t you think so?”
Yangyang nodded. “It’s very difficult for Father to earn money. Let’s go back and stay! Mother, can I bring the puppy back?”
Li Yu looked at the four-eyed black dog sleeping soundly in the small wicker basket and nodded with a smile. “Sure. Tell your companions not to be sad. We’ll come to the farm in June next year.”
Seven Pounds stood outside the door and stuck his head out to look at Li Yu and Yangyang. He said to Li Yu, “Madam, my mother said that our luggage is already packed.”
Yangyang got off Li Yu and ran to the door. He pulled Seven Pounds in. Li Yu looked at him and smiled. “Brat, why are you hiding at the door?”
Seven Pounds glanced at the four-eyed black dog in the wicker basket. “I want a puppy too, ma’am. My mother won’t let me.”
“Did you bring one back too?” Li Yu squatted down and looked at him.
Seven Pounds nodded. “Yes! Mine are just black dots.”
“Alright, your mother has a baby. Don’t keep the puppy at home. Take it back and put it in the backyard. We’ll build a small house for the two of them to live in. ”
“Oh, oh, we can build a small house for the puppies!” The two of them jumped up happily.
Ruyi returned to the manor to haul the food. Halfway there, he saw Chu Feng’s carriage driving over. Chu Feng lifted the curtain and smiled at Ruyi. “Steward Zhou, come to my carriage to take a look.”
“Sure! Shopkeeper Chu, what treasure are you hiding in the carriage?” Ruyi joked as he got into Chu Feng’s car and saw a wooden box in it.
Chu Feng watched Ruyi open the box and saw a few shiny black crossbows and other arrows inside. Chu Feng picked one up and handed it to Ruyi with a smile. “Look, how does this compare to the ones you ordered?”
Ruyi took the crossbow and realized that it was much heavier. The small arrow was also dark and heavy in his hand. “Not bad. These things are good. They’re more than twice as good as the ones I ordered.”
Chu Feng smiled and asked Ruyi, “Steward Zhou, how fast is Madam Li at shooting arrows? How many targets does she hit in one shot?”
Ruyi paused for a moment and said, “She can shoot seven to eight arrows in ten breaths. ”
Chu Feng thought to himself that this speed was not bad, but there were fewer targets.
Ruyi looked at him and smiled. “Shopkeeper Chu, where are you going?”
“You already know the answer.” Chu Feng smiled. “Send this to your Madam. Don’t go to the blacksmith. If you need anything in the future, come to the bank to look for me.”
“Thank you, Shopkeeper Chu.” Only then did Ruyi know that he was being followed.
“It’s nothing compared to what your Master and Madam helped me with!” Chu Feng smiled in embarrassment. “It’s an emergency. Investigate more closely. I won’t delay your return to the city.”
“Everyone, be careful.” He cupped his hands at Chu Feng. “See you, Shopkeeper Chu.”
The two of them went in opposite directions. Chu Feng arrived at the foot of the mountain and stuck his head out to look at the leisure villa that was still under construction. He sighed and thought to himself, “General Shen should have set off, right?”
Li Yu looked at the wooden box that Chu Feng and the coachman had carried in. Seeing Chu Feng standing there panting, she smiled and said, “Shopkeeper Chu, what treasure did you send me?”
Chu Feng smiled and pointed at the wooden box. “A little something you can
use. ”
“Oh!” Li Yu raised her eyebrows and glanced at Chu Feng. She saw him bend down and open the wooden box. “Madam Li, do you like it?”
Li Yu looked at the crossbows in the wooden box in surprise. She picked one up and flipped through it. Then, she picked up a small arrow and nodded with satisfaction. “Not bad. This thing is good. I like it very much.”
Chu Feng bowed and smiled happily. “As long as you like it. You and Brother
Zhou have helped me so much. I’ve never known how to thank you and Brother
Zhou. Since you like weapons, I’ll help you keep an eye out in the future.”
“Thank you, Shopkeeper Chu. I won’t stand on ceremony,” Li Yu said with a smile..
