Chapter 119 Inherent Advantages and Disadvantages

Early the next morning, the evening sun came.

Before Wan Qing finished saying let's go, Li Xiaonan started to ask, "How far is it from here to Linhai Town, and can we make it back before noon? There's not enough time for a quick march, right?"

"I don't know about that." Wan Qing spread her hands.

How can this be something she can manage?She dared not even ask.

"I must be home before noon!" Li Xiaonan said every word.

"It's useless to tell me that, you have to tell our elder son." Wan Qing reminded her sincerely.

"Where is your son? In the tea house?" Li Xiaonan quickened her pace.

"It should be outside the city. I have been ordered to come pick you up. Shi Gun didn't say anything else." Wan Qing followed Li Xiaonan and got into the car at the entrance of the alley.

The car left the city, ran another three or four miles, stopped, Li Xiaonan got out of the car, and saw A Wu and Wang Yuting first.

"You guys?"

"Why are you here!" Ah Wu overwhelmed Li Xiaonan with a surprise.

Li Xiaonan knows that there is no need to ask, these two guys don't know.

Li Xiaonan glanced at A Wu, and looked at Gu Yan who was riding on the horse, shaking his whip boredly.

"I must be home before noon." Li Xiaonan yelled at Gu Yan first.

Gu Yan nodded at her, pointed at the whip, and signaled her to get on the horse.

The horse that Gu Yan pointed to Li Xiaonan was standing next to Gu Yan's horse.

It was a bay red horse. The horse was very beautiful, and the saddle was even more beautiful. Li Xiaonan touched the stirrup, and the stirrup was on her chest, almost reaching her neck.

"Don't move." Gu Yan's voice fell, he bent down and grabbed Li Xiaonan's belt, and lifted her up and put her on the saddle.

Li Xiaonan felt as if she was flying into the air, sitting on the saddle, dizzy for a while.

"Step in." Gu Yan tapped Li Xiaonan's foot with a whip.

Li Xiaonan grabbed the saddle with both hands, looked down and found the stirrup, stepped in and kicked it.

It's just right, it fits.

"Pick up the rein, just hold it, all right, let's go." Gu Yan watched as Li Xiaonan picked up the rein and urged the horse to move forward.

Li Xiaonan's horse immediately followed Gu Yan's horse very sensiblely, and trotted forward.

After running for a while, Li Xiaonan relaxed a little, and turned to look for Wan Qing.

Wan Qing was right behind her, riding a horse with ease and proficiency.

"Don't look around!" Gu Yan's whip hit Li Xiaonan's hand.

Li Xiaonan quickly turned her head and looked ahead.

"Loosen the reins, relax your body, and follow the horse's footsteps, um, not bad." Gu Yan gently urged the horse, and the horse ran faster.

Li Xiaonan only cared about sitting still, but she managed to cope well.

Running wildly, I don't know how far he ran, the horse speed gradually slowed down and stopped.

Gu Yan jumped off the horse, looked at Li Xiaonan, and motioned for her to get down.

Li Xiaonan grabbed the saddle and slid off the horse.

She is familiar with the matter of dismounting, she and Wang Yuting rode out together, and always dismounted by herself.

Gu Yan stared at Li Xiaonan who had rolled off the horse, and laughed out loud.

"Look at you! Get on the horse, I'll show you how to get off the horse." Gu Yan reached out and lifted Li Xiaonan, throwing her onto the horse.

"I'll learn when I can afford a horse." Li Xiaonan lay on the horse's back and rolled down neatly.

Gu Yan slowly took a breath, resisting the urge to hit her with a whip.

"Where is this?" Li Xiaonan pulled up her sleeves and wiped the sweat off her face.

During this horse race, she was extremely nervous and exhausted, with sweat all over her face.

"Your Kunshan County." Gu Yan hung the handkerchief on Li Xiaonan's nose, "Use this, you don't even have a handkerchief?"

Li Xiaonan took the handkerchief to wipe her sweat, but didn't answer Gu Yan's words, "Didn't you mean to go to Linhai Town?"

"You have to rush back before noon, it's too late to go to Linhai Town." Gu Yan walked forward while talking.

Li Xiaonan followed Gu Yan, turned her head and looked around.

One shot ahead, Huang Xianzhou, the county magistrate of Kunshan, was rushing to meet him.

"Take a chance to talk to Huang Xianzhou, and see if you can find out if he has any prejudice against me." Gu Yan suddenly leaned over and whispered to Li Xiaonan.

"Ah?" Li Xiaonan was startled.

"Yin-yang weirdness!" Gu Yan straightened up and said.

"Okay!" Li Xiaonan answered well and blinked.

He didn't intend to go to Linhai Town, did he?He was going to come to Kunshan County, right?

Huang Xianzhou greeted Gu Yan, bowed respectfully and greeted him.

Gu Yan nodded slightly, pointed at Li Xiaonan with the folding fan, and said with a smile: "Your brother is well taken care of by County Magistrate Huang, you should thank him."

"Thank you Huang Xianzun for your guidance." Li Xiaonan thanked solemnly.

"Don't dare to take it." Huang Xianzhou hurriedly cupped his hands to return the gift, and glanced at Li Xiaonan carefully.

What Shizi said was taking care of, what she thanked was guidance.

This little girl is really smart.

"How is the sericulture this year?" Gu Yan went to a mulberry forest ahead.

"Thanks to the blessing of my son, it's still passable." Huang Xianzhou followed Gu Yan.

Li Xiaonan glanced at Huang Xianzhou.The tone of his words is really quite yin and yang.

"This is a silkworm farm." Wan Qing followed Li Xiaonan, with excitement in her lowered voice.

Li Xiaonan let out a low uh.

She is afraid of all soft fleshy insects, including silkworm babies.

"How big is the silkworm now?" Li Xiaonan asked with a suppressed voice.

"It's only April, and the silkworms have just started hatching." Wan Qing looked around with great interest.

"That's good." Li Xiaonan muttered and breathed a sigh of relief.

"come here!"

In front, Gu Yan folded his fan and nodded to Wanqing.

Wan Qing hurried forward with lowered eyebrows and downcast eyes.

Li Xiaonan hesitated, but did not follow.

Wanqing is on errand.

Wan Qing went into the silkworm farm to watch the silkworms. Gu Yan called several silkworm farmers and asked about the silkworms. Huang Xianzhou followed behind. Li Xiaonan took a look and followed Huang Xianzhou. I did, thank you."

"Didn't you thank me just now?" Huang Xianzun also said in a low voice.

"It was Xie Xianzun who pointed out elder brother just now, and now it is Xie Xianzun who pointed out to me." Li Xiaonan laughed.

"Miss Li is too polite."

"I am the best at Gezhi. I taught elder brother's Gezhi. Shizi asked me to teach him arithmetic in his account." After a pause, Li Xiaonan looked at Huang Xianzhou and said in a low voice: "I met Shizi in Hangzhou. , he saw me, I didn't see him."

Huang Xianzhou raised his eyebrows high, then quickly lowered them, looked around, and coughed lightly, "Don't mention Hangzhou or something in the future."

"Well, I didn't dare to mention it, just this time." Li Xiaonan's voice also fell extremely low.

"Your brother is very knowledgeable, and he has made great progress in the past six months."

"Yes! My brother can work hard. He got the first place in the examination last year."

"I know, that Wanqing?" Huang Xianzhou asked in a low voice.

"Just a girl in charge, in charge of Shizi's silk clothes." Li Xiaonan replied in a low voice.

"Oh, no wonder I know sericulture."

"My son is very good." Li Xiaonan looked at Huang Xianzhou.

"Well, I can see it, it's rare."

"Then why did you choke him just now?" Li Xiaonan asked directly.

"Huh? Did I choke him?" Huang Xianzhou's eyes widened.

"Huh? You didn't choke him? You said to ask for the blessing of the eldest son or something."

"Isn't that flattering?" Huang Xianzhou's eyes widened, "Isn't this flattering him?"

Li Xiaonan glared at Huang Xianzhou, Huang Xianzhou blinked a few times, leaning forward slightly, "Do you really think I'm choking him with words?"

"En!" Li Xiaonan hummed with absolute certainty.

"Then son?" Huang Xianzhou pouted his mouth carefully in the direction of Gu Yan.

"Hmm!" Li Xiaonan hummed again in affirmation.

She was very sure that the elder son had just said that Huang Xianzhou had a strange yin and yang.

"Alas!" Huang Xianzhou's shoulders drooped, and he raised his hand to pat his mouth, "I am! Alas! I am clearly! Alas!"

Li Xiaonan looked at Huang Xianzhou sympathetically.

No wonder this Huang Xianzun, who is not bad at learning, has gone from a big county to a middle county, and from a middle county to a small county.
