Everyone Pampers the Small Blessing Who Has a Spatial Pocket! Chapter 261

261 Did Little Ah Yu Miss Me

“You and I have seen Ruan Ruan’s appearance when she was young. Why should I lie to you?” Ye Yuncang punched his leg, not caring about his previous image as an eminent monk. “Stop causing trouble here and return to the capital. I believe he’ll be very happy to know this news.”

Ouyang Pei did not move. “You actually saw that child. Did you see Ruan Ruan?”

“That child was abandoned and raised by another family,” Ye Yuncang said. “Her fate first declined and then rose sharply. There’s no mistake about that. However, the capital is not a good place to raise a child. Let her grow there. You can investigate the rest later.”

At this point, a smile flashed across Ye Yuncang’s face. “However, if you declare war on the Great Chang Nation today, you might not be able to see that child in the future. The Great Chang Nation will definitely not let you come and go as you please.”

Now was the time when the two countries were on friendly terms. They stationed their troops outside and posed a huge threat to the Great Chang Nation. If they fought, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The friends.h.i.+p that the two countries had maintained for decades might collapse.

Where could they go to find a child in a war-torn country?

Ouyang Pei: “Then I should just leave? I’m a General who led an army here. The mission I received was to station here. What can I do?!”

Ye Yuncang said, “Don’t be anxious. Let’s send a letter first by dove. Forget it, send an eagle. Hurry up. We’ll wait for a reply from the capital first.”

Ouyang Pei would rather believe it than not. He listened to Ye Yuncang’s suggestion and first retreated 30 li before sending a letter to the capital with an eagle.

The capital of the West Wind Kingdom was 3,000 li away from the border, closer than the Great Chang Nation.

Hence, the soldiers of the Great Chang Nation only saw the garrison of the West Wind Nation retreat 30 li for no reason.

Moreover, there were no more frequent training activities. It was obvious that they were here for a vacation.

Most importantly, within a few days, they began to chant Buddhist scriptures.

At night, it was as if they were exorcizing souls.

It made the soldiers of the Great Chang Nation tremble, afraid that they would see something they shouldn’t.

But in the end, they still did not dare to let their guard down.

Later on, the West Wind Nation suddenly ordered a full withdrawal. Then, a monk and a general came to the Great Chang Nation to drink with their general.

The few of them chatted and laughed. They even became sworn brothers.

Until the West Wind Nation completely retreated, they still did not know what had happened.

For a moment, the soldiers of both countries were stunned.

Were they nervous for nothing?

However, that was for later.

At this moment, Qin Huai, who was in Wanning City, sat in front of Duke Yong.

There were a handful of rice grains on the table, still covered in rice husk.

In addition, there was a basket beside it that contained the rice grains that had already been prepared.

When Duke Yong saw the two items, his eyes were filled with confusion. “Is this what you said was nurtured from high-quality grains?”

Qin Huai nodded. “Yes, I saw this in the Hu Family Village. The other one is from the An family. The differences between the two are relatively obvious.”

Duke Yong: “Then you mean that you want me to recommend the products produced by the Hu Family Village to His Majesty?”

“No, it’s the opposite,” Qin Huai said. “The terrain in the Hu Family Village is narrow and belongs to the valley area. It’s more suitable for planting rice. However, it’s not necessarily suitable in other areas. If we use the rice seeds produced by the Hu Family Village, we won’t be able to grow such rice elsewhere. Instead, it won’t be good.”

Duke Yong looked at Qin Huai with a faint smile. “Kid, just say what you want to say. There’s no need to beat around the bush here. Do you want me to step forward and suppress the matter of the rice produced in Hu Family Village and not let others know?”

Qin Huai pursed his lips and finally nodded with a red face.

Originally, Qin Huai did not want the seeds of the Hu Family Village to be known by others.

Not only did the rice produced in Hu Family Village look different, but the other grains were also different.

Although Qin Huai had never stayed in the farmlands before, he knew the approximate yield.

Chi Ding and the others had told him about the recent production of the Hu Family Village.

Everyone knew that a man’s wealth was his own ruin.

However, someone suddenly sold the rice grains produced by the Hu Family Village outside.

It was transported from a relatively far place. It took him a long time to trace it back to the Hu Family Village.

The person who bought it even wanted to offer it to the Emperor as a tribute.

By chance, Qin Huai discovered him halfway and stopped him.

After Qin Huai checked, he realized that the villagers of the Hu Village had planted too much grain, so they wanted to sell it for some money.

Later on, some merchants found out about it and blew the matter up.

Qin Huai realized at that time that he had to deal with this matter.

Compared to the entire Great Chang Nation, the Hu Family Village was too weak. If these rice grains were discovered by other aristocratic families or large clans, the Hu Family Village would definitely face a huge disaster.

The two women from the Duke An Manor had a powerful Duke supporting them. It was very easy for them to stand up for themselves through the Duke An Manor.

Whether it was in the name of the Duke An Manor or directly giving this glory to the Duke An Manor, they were less threatened.

Therefore, their actions were very smart. However, at the same time, they would also be controlled by the Duke An Manor.

Qin Huai would never want Little Ah Yu to be controlled. She should be a carefree little girl.

“Kid, I’m afraid you were bribed by those people from the Hu Family Village, right?” Duke Yong glanced at Qin Huai.

However, at the thought that Qin Huai had treated his illness there, and even the divine doctor had said that he could live to a hundred years old in the future.

Duke Yong thought that since it was just grain seeds, their family did not lack this bit of food, nor did they lack the money to buy food.

So what if he sold the child a favor?

Duke Yong said, “I understand. I’ll handle this matter. Study and practice martial arts in peace. Then, you’ll be the top scholar of our Duke’s Estate. It can be considered as bringing honor to our ancestors.”

Qin Huai originally did not want to agree, but when he thought about how his maternal ancestor had already promised him, if he continued to be shy, he would seem a little ungrateful.

Hence, he nodded. “Got it. I’ll work hard.”

Not only did he have to work hard for the Duke Yong Manor, but he also had to work hard for Little Ah Yu.

He had already planned to marry Little Ah Yu when he grew up.

This way, Ah Yu could become the top scholar’s wife and others would envy her.

At the thought of Little Ah Yu’s smug gaze after becoming the wife of the top scholar, Qin Huai could not help but laugh.

Perhaps they would not be able to see each other for the next few years, so Qin Huai could only rely on this imagination to comfort his slightly boring life of studying.

“I wonder if she misses me now. Perhaps she misses me so much that she’s crying because she hasn’t seen me recently?” Qin Huai thought to himself.

However, Little Ah Yu, who was being missed by Qin Huai, was playing happily.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Little Ah Yu had received many gifts. Now, she brought these gifts around every day and went to the streets to receive praise from others.

At night, Little Ah Yu lay on the bed obediently and entered the spatial pocket again.

Now, she was about to get used to living without the elf and could handle the matters in the spatial pocket herself.

At this moment, Little Ah Yu suddenly felt a warm light s.h.i.+ning on her face.

[Kid!]

Then, she looked ahead in surprise and discovered a figure she had been thinking about all day.
