Chapter 763: Setting Off
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Opening the gourd, there was a letter inside. There were a few words written briefly: “Wulang is safe. Don’t worry.”
Qin Huai asked Ah Yu to burn the letter and said, “Chi Gou must have a reason to stay there. Since Fifth Brother is fine for the time being, don’t worry.” “Alright, we’re just waiting for news from Second Uncle,” Ah Yu said.
A few days later, w.a.n.g Chuangui also sent back news that they were fine. They had only encountered some local tyrants when they arrived. w.a.n.g Chuangui didn’t pretend to be polite to them. Instead, he attacked them directly. Their relationship became a little stiff, and their lives were almost in danger.
Fortunately, w.a.n.g Chuangui had something left behind by Ah Yu. The couple had trained in Wanning City and were not to be trifled with. Now, the situation was slowly stabilizing.
When Ah Yu and the others received the exact news, they immediately sent someone back to the prefecture capital and Nanhe Town. On one hand, they brought some trendy items for the family and some of the money they had earned. On the other hand, they wanted to check if any unsettling rumors had reached their family. This was to ease their worries and prevent unnecessary concerns.
After the messenger returned, they brought back a large quant.i.ty of local specialties. The products from Hu Family Village were becoming better and better. The villagers weren’t greedy and focused on maintaining their sugarcane and silk workshops. They even handed over the grain trade to the government, maintaining a self-sufficient state. Young people were no longer burdened with carrying large amounts of food around.
The main reason was that they were afraid that if their business grew too big, it would bring disaster to the village.
In times of peace and chaos, while gold and silver treasures were used as currency, food remained a necessity at all times. Stockpiling too much of it could lead to trouble and danger.
Other than the local specialties of Hu Family Village, there was also the news of Madam Zhang’s pregnancy. This also shocked w.a.n.g Liulang and w.a.n.g Qilang. “Father and Mother are giving birth to another Little Brother for us?” This was too good. They no longer had to worry about who had the lowest status in the third branch.
With a Little Brother, of course, Little Brother’s status was the lowest. As Big Brothers, they had to stand tall!
After the news of Jiang Wujing and Madam Zhang’s pregnancy spread, Wei Qianying also announced her pregnancy on New Year’s Eve. The family was extremely happy and even bought a few more carts of fireworks. They only finished setting everything off after four hours and brought the people of Wanning City to watch the show.
Of course, the people from the Fire Bureau of Wanning City were also on duty at night, afraid that they would trigger a fire. They were very busy.
After the new year, Ah Yu went to the Astrology Divination Bureau to have herself and her family re-divined. She discovered that the results of her divination were no longer as accurate as before.
Xie Zhen told her, “Usually, we don’t divine for ourselves and the people around us because the information we know is too comprehensive and will affect our calculation of the results. Commander, I’ve done the divination for you. Your family should be doing relatively smoothly this year. By the way, I did a separate divination for you. As expected, you’ll obtain an unexpected harvest this year.”
Ah Yu: “Thank you for your blessings!”
During the new year, Ah Yu received two wedding invitations. One was from Xie Zhen’s disciple, and the other was from Wen Wen. They would hold their wedding ceremonies on the 18th of January.
That’s right, the two of them were getting married to each other. If not for Ah Yu obtaining the invitation, she really would not have known that their arranged marriage was to each other.
After Ah Yu attended the wedding, she planned on going to Jiangsai officially as she had planned..
