The news that the king of Yangjun escorted the new county lord back to Dongshan Village to his relatives soon spread to Tanggu Town. Zhao Xianling and many well-known figures in the town rushed over from the town the next day with people to greet the two masters. Although the county lord was born as a peasant girl, the king of Yang County is genuine! Besides, the entire Tanggu and the surrounding areas are all fiefdoms of the county prince. There is no doubt that he is the master.

The county commander Zhao met with the king of Yangjun and the county lord of Jin'an, and exchanged a few words of greeting with Yu Hai, who was equal to his rank. Knowing that the Yu family is the person valued by the king of Yangjun, and there is a county lord with a fifth grade in the family, he naturally does not dare to slack off.

Xiangyang County King reported Tang Gu's recent affairs, and gave the master a year's tax booklet to his master. The port opened this autumn and is bustling with passenger ships. Even the ancient town of Tang is much more prosperous than in the past, with many new shops, and the tax is naturally much higher than in previous years.

King Yangjun affirmed Lord Zhao's merits, rewarded him with some gadgets, and gave him a few words of encouragement. Lord Zhao happily left the Yu family, and was able to show his face in front of King Yangjun, if he could become the person he valued, would he still worry about his future in the future?

There are many people in the town who have heads and faces, although they can't be qualified to show their faces in front of King Yangjun like Lord Zhao, but the people who come to visit the Yu family have never stopped. The Yu family can speak somewhat in front of the King of Yangjun, and when the King of Yangjun came back this time, he did not live in another courtyard at all, but rested in a courtyard of the Yu family. Establish a good relationship with the Yu family, and there is no harm in it.

Since Yu Xiaocao came back, the threshold of the Yu family has been almost flattened. Yu Hai was overwhelmed and hid in the village on the outskirts of the town. is about to leave for the capital, and the matters on Zhuangzi still need to be arranged, right? Yu Hang, the eldest son, lasted at home for two days and followed him to Zhuangzi. For useless entertainment, it's better to serve a few more vegetables!

There was only a group of old and weak women and children left in the Yu family, and they could only close their doors. Those people had no choice but to leave posts and gifts, and returned in vain.

The family finally stopped, and Yu Xiaocao began to give New Year's gifts to his relatives in advance. The grandfather's family sent six boxes of exquisite snacks from Beijing, a large piece of venison given by the emperor, several brightly colored muslins, and some characteristics of Beijing. The people who have a good relationship in the village also gave snacks and competing specialties.

On the side of Xishan Village, Xiaocao's maternal grandfather's family added some valuable items on the basis of the New Year's gift to the grandfather's family. Now the pig farm is in full charge of the aunt, and she takes a few women in the village to take care of the pig farm in an orderly manner.

After giving the New Year's gift, it's almost time to leave for the capital. The Yu family packed up some clothes they had brought with them, got into the carriage, and left the village under the envious eyes of the villagers. Being able to buy a house in Beijing and have the opportunity to go to the capital for the New Year, in addition to the Yu family, there is no second household in Mandongshan Village.

"The younger brother will only have a holiday in ten days, do you want to send someone to pick him up?" Xiao Shi is only ten years old after the New Year, and he is really a little worried about leaving him alone in Tanggu!

King Yangjun was wrapped in a thick coat and said to the little girl who was a little worried in the car window: "Didn't you ask Dean Yuan to take care of him?" Besides, after the holiday, Dean Yuan will also return to the capital. Your little brother is his most proud disciple, and he will take good care of the stone without you saying it! By the way, your stupid roe deer has caught up......"

Yu Xiaocao poked his head out of the car window to see, and sure enough, in the direction where the carriage was coming, a small black dot was desperately chasing. Not only the Yu family, but even the honest girl with Erya, was packed and taken to the capital. The family has asked Liu Xuanzhu's family to help take care of it. In fact, there is nothing to take care of, so I raised a few rabbits in the backyard, a few hens that lay eggs, and a silly roe deer.

When I went out, the courtyard door was locked, and the key gave the daughter-in-law of the tethered post a spare, how did this stupid roe deer slip out of the backyard?

Xiao Bu'er came to their house not long after the Yu family broke up. Because of its small size, it was still a young animal that had not been weaned, and after eating only a few taels of meat, it was raised as a pet for children. It's been four years, and it's still as big as when I just got it back. It's said to be a stupid roe deer, but it's actually a little clever. No, maybe it was because he realized that the big guys had left, and he was "abandoned", so he came out of nowhere and caught up.

Afraid that this guy would be caught and slaughtered and eaten, Yu Xiaocao had to ask people to stop the carriage, and after the little roe deer caught up, he carried it to the carriage. The little roe deer, about the size of a fawn dog, circled around excitedly in the carriage, licked the grass's hand, and obediently lay down at her feet. Follow closely to your master, and you won't be abandoned.

The golden kitten transformed into the little mending stone also jumped in from the window. Although the Heaven Replenishing Stone can now transform into a human form, it is too spiritual power to maintain a human form, but it still likes to appear in the form of a cat. When I was in the capital, it was not good for the small mending stone to appear out of thin air, so I could only nest in the multicolored stone and cultivate boredly. By returning to Dongshan Village this time, it can finally come out to breathe!

"Miss, your pets are so small and cute! This cat, in particular, is golden in color. The slave has never seen such a beautiful cat! "Yingchun is not very old, and it is when he likes small animals, so he stretched out his hand to touch the small mending stone lying on the master's lap.

"Xiao Tangyuan's temper is not very good, he doesn't pay much attention to people, he usually likes to go out into the wild, and he often sees the head and the tail of the dragon. Yingchun, if you like small animals, you can help take care of this little roe deer, it is my little brother's heart! ”

Yingchun happily hugged Xiao Budian on his knees. Maybe she is contaminated with the breath of Yu Xiaocao, and the little silly roe deer doesn't seem to reject her, and honestly nests in the arms of Yingchun as a hand warmer.

"There are wolves! Protect your master!! The guards brought from the new house saw two vigorous and agile figures, one black and one white, not far away, at first they thought they were relatively strong big dogs, but when they got closer to see their true faces, their faces immediately changed, and they clenched the weapons in their hands and protected the carriage in which the Yu family was riding in the middle.

Wutong was frightened by the guard's "wolf" and shrank in the corner of the carriage, and tears were wide in his heart: Sure enough, there is a price to be paid for showing loyalty, isn't this the official way where people come and go? How can there be wolves? I heard the old people in the house talk about the ancients, saying that wolves are infested in packs. I don't know if there are more or fewer wolves encountered this time, and whether the big brothers can withstand it.

Yu Xiaocao reacted calmly from the roe deer, and before he stretched out his head to look, he knew that the wolves in the guards' mouths were Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai. These two are said to have mixed like fish in water in the mountains during her absence. Xiaobai defeated the wolf king of a wolf pack, but he disdained to be the leader of others, and after a round of trouble, he traveled back and forth between Dongshan Village and the depths of Xishan Mountain. It also remembers that before its master left for the capital, he told it to guard the door.

Xiao Hei was in trouble everywhere in the mountains, and I heard that once he didn't know how to annoy a blind bear and was chased very badly. Fortunately, this cargo was clever and led the blind bear to the trap set by Yu Hai in the mountains. Then he led the man of the family to catch turtles in the urn. Bear paws, bear bile and bear skin Yu Hai stayed, and all the bear meat was sold to Zhen Yulou, making a small profit.

Outside was already shouting and preparing to fight, Yu Xiaocao shouted "stop" very loudly in the carriage, startling Wutong and Yingchun, who were nervous.

Seeing that the young lady lifted the curtain and was about to go out, Wutong grabbed her back placket and said tremblingly: "Miss, it's dangerous outside, you stay in the carriage, and the slave goes out to see the situation!" ”

Yu Xiaocao glanced at her in slight surprise, when did this girl change sex? Originally, the selfish and arrogant girl was so scared that she was about to say anything, but she had the courage to think about her...... It seems that the evaluation of a person cannot be seen with inherent eyes.

"It's okay, these two wolves are raised by me since I was a child, and they won't hurt me!" Yu Xiaocao smiled at her, patted her hand holding her shirt tightly, and her voice was a little more intimate than usual.

Yingchun, who was a little bolder, opened his eyes wide and asked, "What?" Can wolves be raised? Won't bite? ”

"Everything has a spirit! As long as you treat each other sincerely, you can get back to sincerity! Yu Xiaocao glanced at the sycamore pointedly, chuckled, and left the admiring Yingchun and the thoughtful sycamore, Shi Shiran got out of the carriage.

The little black and little white who were stopped outside have long since grown into big black and big white. Having been fed with spirit stone water by Xiaocao since childhood, these two wolves are a third larger than normal wolves, and their shoulder height is comparable to that of a half-sized calf. Coupled with the thick fur in winter, the whole looks very strong.

As they approached, the horses tread their hooves restlessly, and the guards on horseback tried to soothe the horses under their crotches while they were on guard.

dismounted with Xiaocao, as well as King Yangjun. He is like a heroic knight, protecting the left and right of the "princess", and he will not leave an inch.

When Xiaocao came to the front of the convoy, he saw Xiaobai with his head down and bared his teeth, scaring a nervous young guard. Blackie stuck his head out to look for something in the convoy.

Seeing Yu Xiaocao's figure, Xiao Hei's eyes lit up, and with a "whoosh-" ground, its sturdy figure had disappeared in front of the guards. One of the guards only swept a black lightning-like shadow out of the corner of his eye, and when he turned back, the black wolf had already broken into the crowd and headed straight for the county lord.

"Be careful!" The guard's voice was stuck in his throat. He rubbed his eyes, oh my! What did he see? I can't believe my eyes! Could it be ...... Could it be that they are all gone, in fact, these two are relatively strong dogs, not ferocious wolves?
