After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 173 I'll Let You Live a Little Longer

The matter was of great importance. Even though Qi Siyuan still had some doubts in his heart, he still had to prepare for the upcoming snowstorm.

No matter what the outcome is, as the crown prince, he must consider the people more.

It’s only been a short time since the beginning of winter this year, but the weather is already unusually cold. Maybe, as Miss Xu said, there will really be a once-in-a-century heavy snowfall.

By that time, it will probably be too late to say anything.

Yuxiu had said before that she got the news by chance, so Qi Siyuan did not ask about the source of the news.

He walked around the room twice with a frown on his face. Just when he was about to ask Yuxiu's opinion again, when he looked up again, he found that he was the only one left in the room, and the person who was in front of him just now had left without him knowing when.

"He really comes and goes without a trace..."

He curled the corners of his lips, muttered something, and regardless of the lateness of the night, he hurriedly led his men to the emperor's study.

In fact, Yuxiu had not left the palace yet. She was hiding in the dark and watched him pass through the palace walls and enter a very solemn hall.

She originally wanted to go over there and take a look, but feeling the unusual pressure around her, she had to quickly enter the space to hide.

She now has considerable internal strength, so of course she can feel that the people hiding in the dark are very skilled in martial arts, and there are more than one such masters. Even if she has the cheating artifact of space, she does not want to go looking for this stimulation.

The protection is so strict, it seems that is where the emperor is.

Fortunately, the space can now be used to observe the situation outside. Yuxiu had been freezing outside for a long time. Now she made herself a cup of hot milk tea and sat there drinking it while waiting to see what was happening outside.

No one knew what Qi Siyuan said to the emperor. Before Yuxiu had even finished her cup of milk tea, five or six figures in black tights quickly rushed out of the palace.

It was obvious that these people were not ordinary people. If Yuxiu guessed correctly, they should be secret guards.

In this case, the emperor should have believed that a snowstorm was about to happen, and Yuxiu was relieved.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw an old eunuch with a hunched back coming out of a side hall. Behind him followed two young eunuchs with their heads lowered. They were holding a tray in their hands, which looked like a teapot or something.

The three of them shouted outside the door, and the people inside the palace responded, and then they walked in.

When several people entered the hall, Yuxiu suddenly had an idea in her mind.

She remembered that when they were in Jiaoshan County, the cruel father and son of the Ren family relied on the power of an old eunuch named Eunuch Xing to turn Jiaoshan County into a hell on earth.

"Little system, was that old eunuch just now Eunuch Na Xing?"

Although Yuxiu asked this, she had a strong premonition in her heart that this old eunuch was most likely that bastard.

"The host guessed correctly. This person's name is Ren Dexing, and he is also the one who has served the emperor the longest..."

Sure enough, the small system gave a positive answer and gave a brief account of what had happened to Eunuch Xing over the years.

Although Yuxiu wanted to rush over and chop off the old man's head right now, she decided to wait until next time because of the secret guards hidden around the palace.

Of course, if she really wanted to force her way in, she could hide in the space if there was danger. If she wanted to take Eunuch Xing's head, she could still do it, but there was no need for that.

You bastard, I'll let you live a little longer.

Yuxiu left the palace angrily and circled in the dark for several times. Only after making sure that no one was following her did she return to the Xu family with peace of mind.

Knowing that it was going to snow heavily, Yuxiu did not dare to delay any longer the next morning and found Cui and Xu Qinghe to tell them the news.

Xu Qinghe and his wife were both shocked when they heard this. They thought that Yuxiu got the information from the immortal master and of course believed it unconditionally.

The three of them discussed for a while before they urgently came up with several plans.

The first thing, of course, is to stockpile supplies.

Of course, Yuxiu decided to prepare all the supplies from the space herself, and then told the housekeeper Zhang Wentang to quickly clean up a few warehouses.

Not only do the people in the two houses need supplies, but the people in the two farms also need a lot of things.

Necessities such as rice, flour, grain, oil, firewood and charcoal must be prepared as soon as possible before the snow falls.

Then we sent some other people out to pick up Uncle Cui and his group, so that they would not get lost here and get delayed in the snow again.

There are also things like checking and reinforcing houses, building sheds for livestock on the farm, and preparing fodder, all of which need to be planned out.

Because Cui was pregnant and needed care, and her due date was approaching, Yuxiu bought three women from Qian Da some time ago.

They were sold to human traffickers by their families because of the previous drought. They had helped deliver babies several times in the countryside before and knew a little about childbirth.

Now that she has been learning from Cui for some time, her midwifery skills must be much better than those midwives who have no idea of ​​the details.

Because Yang Laowu had been asked to come back to be the accountant of the Xu family, and his wife Chen was also a capable and straightforward woman, Cui made her the manager of the backyard to help manage the maids and old women in the backyard.

This made Cui feel much more relaxed, and she devoted herself to teaching these women knowledge about childbirth.

Yuxiu and Xu Qinghe no longer have to worry about the family, so the father and daughter can just focus on their own affairs.

Yuxiu exchanged a lot of food in the system mall, and mixed in the food she had collected on the road, preparing to send some to both farms.

In order to cover up her tracks, she decided to ask Qian Da to buy another yard to store supplies so that she could put things there at any time, and then ask Zhang Wentang to bring some people back and say that she had asked someone to buy them.

Xu Qinghe was not idle either. He held a small meeting with Zhang Wentang and Lin Er, saying that the weather was too cold and it would snow soon. He asked them to bring people to check every room again to prevent the roof from collapsing due to too much snow.

Fortunately, they had inspected the two houses when they bought them, so now it’s not a big deal to just do some minor repairs and fix what needs to be fixed.

There was already a batch of pigs on the farm that were ready to be slaughtered. When Yuxiu sent them over, they were already half grown. After being carefully cared for by the people on the farm, they were fed to be fat and plump, and each one weighed about two to three hundred kilograms.
