Chapter 454 She Believes
"My wife, I will bring some rice from home as well. The rice grown at home tastes better!" After Xiaoqi and Xiaoba finished packaging the gifts, they started to arrange their own meals.
"Ah? I haven't thought about this problem. Just bring some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar as well!" Yiyi had previously thought of bringing some special dried goods from home. They were all homemade, with excellent quality and taste, and they could guarantee food safety. They could be eaten by herself or given as gifts.
"Why not! Take it with you!" Xiao Ba agreed.
"Isn't that too exaggerated? Aren't you afraid that your fourth brother will laugh at you? Your fourth brother's shop must have everything!" Yiyi felt that the two men were just joking and might not take it seriously. However, everyone agreed that the rice grown on her farm was really delicious.
"Yes, of course, we have some things that we like and that we are used to eating. We can take them with us, and they won't take up much space." Xiao Ba was very active in packing up behind Xiao Qi. Yi Yi felt that the space she had cleared would soon be filled up.
I don't intend to persuade them, so just let them be. Isn't life about doing whatever is convenient for you?
After a busy morning, everything that needed to be packed was packed. After a simple lunch, Yiyi took a rest at home while Xiaoqi and Xiaoba pulled the carriage back, loaded the luggage in advance, and checked again to see if there was anything missing. The key step before the trip was to check the horses. Xiaoqi and Xiaoba went to the stables to check, fed the horses enough hay, and personally fetched water for the horses to take a hot spring bath. This honor made the horses breathe, flick their tails, and happily step and turn in circles.
Ling Wuxin and Nanchen had just finished selecting the list of candidates for the cavalry battalion, and they came to the stable to inspect the horses. They had to determine which mares needed to be sent to the stable to foster affection according to the plan. Producing high-quality offspring was a huge project, and it was necessary to select dedicated breeders. The mare's journey from adulthood to affection and then to reproduction needed to be recorded in detail for easy analysis and improvement.
"Why are you two here? My wife is home alone?" Ling Wuxin saw the two silly men having fun with the horses and spoke quickly.
"Brother! My wife and the children are resting at home. We are coming to pick the horses and clean them. Everything at home has been tidied up and we can set off at any time!" Xiao Qi stopped what he was doing and reported to the boss Ling Wuxin.
"These things...just go back after you finish them. I'll be back soon too!" Ling Wuxin originally wanted to let the people below do these things, so there's no need to do them himself. However, after seeing the horses they picked and understanding why they came to choose in person, he stopped blaming them. Xiaoqi and Xiaoba are quite meticulous!
"Okay! Big brother and second brother, you guys go ahead and get busy! We'll be done soon here!" Xiao Ba responded with a smile.
"Yeah!" Ling Wuxin and Nanchen walked around them and continued forward to check on the condition of the horses.
"All matters concerning the horse farm must be assigned to specific people. You select a few breeders from here who must be familiar with the growth habits of horses and transfer them to the horse farm. They must be trained before they can take up their posts. I will leave these matters to you. I will leave the farm and return to the palace as soon as I am ready in the afternoon! Everything else remains the same, and we must keep the information flowing smoothly!" Ling Wuxin confirmed the matters related to the horse farm with Nanchen again, and planned to focus on building social relationships when he returned to the palace.
"Don't worry, big brother. The affairs of the manor will be taken care of by me and the third brother. There will be no trouble. You only need to focus on dealing with external affairs. If you can effectively use external forces, you can naturally save a lot of effort!" Nanchen said in a deep voice. They knew that the boss's trip to the manor was not as easy as a trip. Every decision he made had far-reaching significance. The boss represented their external authority. What kind of image he established would give him corresponding credibility.
"Okay! Then I won't say anything more! Come back before the New Year and get together again in the New Year. Everyone has worked hard during this period, and next year will be much smoother!" Ling Wuxin said no more and handed things over to them, his brothers. He felt relieved!
On a quiet afternoon, Ling Wuxin, Yiyi and their family of six finally set off. There was no big fanfare, just a quiet small convoy traveling. Of course, there were guards who scout the way in front and protect the back to ensure a smooth trip.
They didn't bother anyone to go out and see them off. Yanan, Bailu and Beibei all knew that Yiyi and her family would leave the village today, but they didn't know when. Even Yiyi herself couldn't tell the exact time. She only knew that it would be today, maybe earlier or later, and the departure time would all depend on Ling Wuxin's arrangements.
When Xinxin and Niannian rode in the carriage for the second time, they were very curious at first and their eyes kept moving around. Then they realized that there was nothing special in the carriage except their parents. They looked around but couldn't see anything special. So they calmed down and nestled in their parents' arms, wanting to catch up on some sleep. Not to mention, the shaking carriage made them drowsy.
"Go to sleep! Your parents will call you when it's time!" Yiyi unbuttoned their coats so that they could lie down more comfortably.
"Husband, what are you doing?" Ling Wuxin pulled over a small box beside her, opened it, and took out the half mask that she hadn't worn for a long time. She was a little surprised and asked hurriedly.
"Well, for a long time, this mask has been my identification. As long as there is no need to reveal my face, I will wear it when appearing in front of outsiders. My wives and children will also wear crowns with veils that half cover their faces!" Ling Wuxin said as he took out a large and two small crowns from the small box. The crowns were decorated with jewel ornaments and the face was covered with a translucent veil.
"Well, that's great. I don't want to reveal my true face in front of people!" Yiyi thought to herself. She still had the task of dressing up as a man and walking around the streets. She didn't need to show her true face to anyone. At least for now, Yiyi was quite satisfied with her identity as a princess.
"It won't be too long, and it won't be difficult for my wife." Ling Wuxin planned this in advance. He did not make his wife and children public when he came back this time, but it's better to be prepared!
Yiyi smiled slightly, she believed it!
