Chapter 281: The Past Becomes the Wind
Chapter 281: The Past Becomes the Wind
Silver Fox's grandfather was the head of the Imperial Medical Service. He was affected by the harem struggles and the emperor ordered his entire family to be confiscated and exiled.
After his grandfather got the news, he entrusted his children and grandchildren to Manager Hua and asked him to take them out of the capital.
He was thrown into prison and beheaded in public the next day.
Silver Fox's father fled to Youzhou City with his family.
When Prince Rong's mother had a difficult labor giving birth to him, it was Silver Fox's grandfather who saved the lives of mother and son.
And in the harem that followed, Silver Fox's grandfather rescued the mother and son many times.
Therefore, Prince Rong and his mother have always regarded Silver Fox's grandfather as their benefactor.
The year their family encountered trouble, Prince Rong got married, so the old emperor granted him the fief of Youzhou City.
Silver Fox's grandfather told them to flee to Youzhou City and find King Rong.
Silver Fox's father took his whole family to Youzhou.
But how could the imperial court possibly let this family off?
The emperor kept sending assassins to hunt him down.
There was no other way, so Yinhe's father asked Manager Hua to take his two children and leave first.
He and many other people stayed behind and slowly walked towards Youzhou City to attract the killers.
As for what happened to Silver Fox's father, they still don't know.
After Manager Hua brought them to Youzhou City, he quietly entered Prince Rong's Mansion.
The day they went to Prince Rong's Mansion, there happened to be a grand banquet being held there to entertain guests from all over Youzhou City.
On that day, there were many children in the Rong Palace, so the Silver Fox siblings were left in the courtyard of Princess Rong's Palace.
To others, they were simply told that they were two children of distant relatives from her mother’s side.
Princess Rong’s younger brother, Su Cankun, also lives in the Prince Rong’s Mansion, and the three children grew up together in the Prince Rong’s Mansion.
Later, Silver Fox's sister Hua Baizhi married Princess Rong's younger brother Su Cankun when she was 16 years old.
They didn't dare to use the surname "Hua" anymore, so they took their mother's surname "Bai". The silver fox was named Bai Xuanshen and the sister was named Bai Zhi.
Later, Li Lanzhen learned about the subsequent development of the story.
"Aunt, after discussing with Uncle Hua, I will find a time and ask you to take me to find my father."
"Okay, it doesn't matter. Tell me when you've discussed it, and I'll take you there."
When Silver Fox and Li Lanzhen returned to Peach Blossom Spring, it was already dark.
There were still torches lit in the dining room, and the two of them went to the dining room. Except for the children, all the adults were still sitting there, waiting for them.
I saw the two of them enter the dining room.
Li Erhan and Ye quickly grabbed Li Lanzhen's hands.
"My girl, is everything alright? Why did you come back so late?"
As he said this, he looked her up and down.
Li Lanzhen pulled them to sit at the table and said.
"Dad and Mom, don't worry. Nothing happened. Silver Fox is following us, so don't worry."
The two old men hurried to see Silver Fox again, "Child, you are okay too, are you feeling well? Look at you, your injuries should not be fully healed yet? You haven't been home all day."
Silver Fox really enjoyed their concern and said with a chuckle.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
Li Lanzhen did not tell them about the Hulu Medicine Valley.
They would not tell them that the discovery of a cave there was related to Silver Fox's family background.
"Have you found the herbs to detoxify that young master?"
Han Shunde asked anxiously.
Because this was the official reason for them to leave and look for medicinal herbs.
That day, when Silver Fox and the Prince were found in the reed marsh along the river, everyone knew that the Prince had been poisoned.
It's just that they don't know the identity of the prince.
Silver Fox said, "I have collected all the herbs for his detoxification. Once I prepare the mixture, I will boil the medicine for him. He will be detoxified after taking a few doses."
Mrs. Wu also nodded. "After the poison is removed, you have to take good care of yourself. It will take at least a year or half a year to recover."
Li Lanzhen quickly changed the subject and asked them about the progress of building the greenhouse in Taohuayuan today.
When Zhang Deshui heard this, he asked about the construction of the greenhouse.
He laughed and said, "It's very fast. We have built four greenhouses today.
But the roof has not been laid yet."
Han Zhaoxiong continued, "Aunt, we thought that we should build up the walls of the greenhouse first while the land is still fresh.
As for the roof, it won’t be too late to build it later.”
Li Lanzhen agreed and said, "Yes, if we arrange it this way, we can build all the walls first, and then we can build the roof faster."
Zhang Deshui sighed again, "We still have too few people here. If there were more people, we would be able to build more than a dozen greenhouses in a day."
After hearing this, Li Lanzhen started thinking about what Silver Fox had asked her to buy some servants.
It is not impossible to sell some servants. Otherwise, I will follow Silver Fox to Youzhou City tomorrow to have a look. If I meet the right one, I will buy it and bring it back to Taohuayuan.
At that time, she was thinking of buying a group of servants from Hulu Valley to manage the medicinal materials. Now it seems that Li Lanzhen doesn't have to worry about Hulu Valley anymore.
As long as Silver Fox finds his uncle's family, those servants who grow medicinal herbs can also be found.
Li Lanzhen said, "Leave the sweet potato and potato seedling cultivation to me. I have many large rooms in my yard, so you don't have to worry about it. I can provide as many sweet potato vines and potato seedlings as you can build."
Everyone nodded after hearing this and no one objected to Lan Zhen's proposal.
They had a vague idea in their hearts that Li Lanzhen had some tricks up her sleeve.
But what exactly is it? They don't want to find out, because Li Lanzhen always brings them benefits and many things they have never seen before.
Anyway, Li Lanzhen would not harm them, they completely trusted her!
At this time, Xue Nizi and a few others came in carrying food boxes.
"Mom, why did you come back so late in the day? Are you starving? Come and eat, brother Silver Fox, come and eat with my mom."
Li Lanzhen looked at the dinner and found that it was tomato dumpling soup, wild vegetable pancakes, and pickled cabbage made from sweet potato vines.
Li Lanzhen likes to eat this, it’s sour, refreshing and delicious.
Xue Nizi and a few others gave each of the other people a bowl.
Han Shunde laughed and said, "Why? You guys prepared some midnight snacks for us. Well, let's take advantage of Lan Zhen and have a bowl of it to gain some weight."
I had a bowl of hot and sour dumpling soup.
No one left yet. Xue Nizi and the others cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.
They sat at the table and continued chatting.
Zhang Deshui was the most excited. As long as he was asked to farm and build greenhouses, he would be extremely happy.
This morning, I got up early and went to the area with eleven trees and selected a large piece of land.
He suggested that everyone plan the land neatly.
Even if the spring is warm next year, we can still grow grains and vegetables here.
Han Dazhong said, "Let's build another greenhouse and grow some vegetables in it."
Zhang Deshui was unwilling when he heard it.
"No, we have to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes, and send these grains to the border!
Vegetables are not enough to satisfy hunger. Besides, how can we transport them from such a long distance?"
Li Lanzhen knew that Han Dazhong had already seen the profit to be made from off-season sales of greenhouse vegetables.
So it is not impossible for him to grow vegetables, but he just does not have enough manpower.
Han Shunde said, "Let's focus on growing sweet potatoes and potatoes first.
Now, we are still growing vegetables in these five greenhouses, one crop after another, and we sell them to Sifang Restaurant, and we continue to make money."
Just when everyone was talking excitedly about growing grains or vegetables in greenhouses.
Xue Bao rushed in!
"Village chief, someone is coming! They are coming by boat!"
