Chapter 135.2
Struggle in Ancient Times
âAh? The county magistrate and his wife, why are you out shopping so early today?â said a relatively generous woman selling vegetables.@@novelbin@@
âItâs Aunt Ni. I donât have much business today, so I can finish it quickly. I have nothing to do, so I go out with my wife for a walk,â Liao Tingyu replied with a smile.
âOh, thatâs it. Itâs time to go out for a walk. Your mother was talking while shopping for groceries this morning. She said you stayed in the county office all day long and didnât go out for a walk. You must be bored,â Aunt Ni said.
âReally?â Liao Tingyu was a little embarrassed. He was obviously busy with official duties all day long, so how could he hang out in the county government office.
âBy the way, I still have a handful of good vegetables here. Would the county magistrate want to take them back and cook them?â
âForget it, our family already has my mother shopping for vegetables. She has already bought a lot today. I wonât be able to finish the food even if I buy it back!â
âWell, you go slowly, I wonât delay you anymore.â Aunt Ni was not angry because, before Liao Tingyu even left, someone came to buy the vegetables.
This county magistrate was a lucky charm.
.
Along the way, they would always meet those who were generous and came over to say hello to them. As for the introverted ones, just nodded to them.
Liao Tingyu and Huang Zilan walked slowly with a piece of pastry each and two bunches of candied haws.
This pastry was left over from someone elseâs sale, and Liao Tingyu wanted to buy the candied haws.
After all, when people went out for a walk, they also went to shopping and eat at the same time.
The two of them were strolling slowly down the street, but when they looked at Route 6 from a distance, they saw the person who looked exactly like the portrait. He was indeed not an ordinary person.
There were four guards beside that person, and although these guards were dressed simply, the knife and the saber were very rare to see.
And the man surrounded like the stars and the moon was indeed a member of aristocratic family, and the ring on his hand was a symbol of power.
Liao Tingyu glanced at the faces of several guards and saw a familiar person.
âLetâs go, letâs keep moving forward,â Liao Tingyu said softly.
Huang Zilan followed him calmly, and waited until they were far away before saying, âIt seems that what Yue Peng said is true, but why is that person there?â
âItâs indeed a question, but it doesnât have much to do with us. Letâs go. Letâs identify the person and make it clear. Itâs much easier to deal than someone in the dark.â
âI just hope they are friends and not enemies.â
Liao Tingyu shook his head after listening to what he said. Milk powder and wool products in Linxian County were not a simple business now, including horses. Their business was like a piece of pie everyone wanted to taste, it was difficult!
.
On the other side, Liao Ming and the village chief finally got the kang. It was exactly what Liao Ming said. Once he got up, he didnât want to get out of bed again.
As soon as this thing came out, it was welcomed by the whole village. Liao Ming also handed it over to the villagers without any reservation. Then prepared to take his sonâs gift to the Huang Mansion.
As a result, Huang Hao saw him before he even reached the Huang Mansion.
âIsnât this Uncle Liao? Didnât you follow Tingyu to Lin County? Why are you back? Is Tingyu back?â Huang Hao spotted this familiar person with his sharp eyes and hurriedly pulled him over.
Liao Ming thought he had bumped into someone else, but turned around and saw that it was his sonâs friend.
âTingyu canât come now, so Iâll come back and take a look. Are you Huang Hao? Youâve changed a lot over the years. You used to be chubby, why are you so thin now?â Liao Ming looked at Huang Hao and spoke.
âSo, he hasnât come back!â Huang Hao suddenly lost his energy, âItâs not all because of the marriage. My wife is in charge of not letting me eat this or that. She says Iâm too fat, so she wonât let me eat much. This way, how could I not lose weight?â
âYou will feel much better now. By the way, Tingyu brought you a gift. I will get it for you later,â Liao Ming said politely.
âI knew this kid hadnât forgotten me. What did he bring me, uncle?â Huang Hao said curiously.
âI donât know about that. Anyway, itâs a box of stuff.â After saying that, he got into the carriage and rummaged around, then took out a box and handed it to Huang Hao.
âThis box is quite heavy. I donât know whatâs in it, you, young people are very weird!â
Huang Hao took it, and it was indeed quite heavy. He completely ignored etiquette and opened the gift directly on the roadside.
He only saw a few novels inside, and then some small things.
Huang Hao was very happy because these novels were written by Liao Tingyu.
Teacher Lan Huiâs novels were very popular, and many people imitated them. Unfortunately, due to the limitation of vision, no matter how good the writing was, they were not as wonderful as Teacher Lan Huiâs (Liao Tingyuâs penname) novels.
Without this spiritual food, he had no choice but to look at imitations, but none of them caught his eye.
He originally wanted to write it myself, but he couldnât get started.
He was much worse than those imitators!
