Chapter 1555: They Believe
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
If he wanted to know if the heavy taxes here were related to the Emperor of Da Chen, making a trip to the capital was the only viable option.
However, they had never even been there. At most, they had only been to Stone Village twice. They still lacked understanding of this world…
Therefore, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not sure whether they should go to the capital. At this moment, they did not tell Tao Zhen that they had plans to go to the capital one day.
They could afford to let Tao Zhen go alone, but Tao Zhen did not have any skills or background. If he went to the Imperial Capital alone, something might happen to him, so they did not mention it.
They felt that the best way to find out about this whole thing was to personally investigate it.
Many people were helping to clean the house. The house and the outside were only that big, and Tao Zhen did not need to help. This small thatched cottage courtyard was quickly cleaned up.
Even the woodshed was filled with fresh firewood.
Only then did everyone ask Jiang Yue and Xue Yan. “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, besides the missing person notice, do you have any other bags? Do you want us to bring some bedding and other things from our house?”
They had other bags, such as blankets, pillows, sleeping mats, and such… But they were all in the space. It was just that it was not appropriate to take them out in front of everyone now.
Jiang Yue thanked everyone for their kindness before saying, “My husband and I will send a missing person notice box over. We will also send our bags.”
“Oh, that’s good, that’s good.” Everyone said. Even though they had yet to meet their benefactor’s subordinates. Perhaps they might not see each other again in the future.
Since their benefactor said so, then so be it.
Tao Zhen and everyone else believed it without any doubt.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not st*pid. They could see that everyone trusted them.
Since they had already cleaned up and there was nothing else they needed help with, everyone planned to go back. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan sent everyone to the entrance of the courtyard.
Everyone else had gone back, but Tao Zhen, Zhang Dazhu, and Zhang Shoushou were not in a hurry to leave.
Zhang Dazhu said happily, “Shoushou and I live next door. If you need anything, you can call us. You can pick the vegetables in our courtyard and eat them. If it weren’t for the seeds you gave us, we wouldn’t have been able to grow such good vegetables. Last time, I went to sell vegetables with Shuanzi and the others. I only sold a basket of vegetables and got nearly ten coins. The vegetables in the market weren’t as fresh as the vegetables sold in our village. Later, more people came by to buy them, but we sold them out and couldn’t sell them anymore. In two days, Shuanzi and the villagers will go to sell vegetables again. I will also pick some cabbage to sell to earn some money.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both thanked him.
Then, Xue Yan asked the three of them, “My wife and I plan to make a trip to town. Are there any ox carts nearby? My wife needs all the help she can get. The town is too far away. It’ll be impossible for us to walk to town. We don’t know how to get to the town, so we need someone to lead the way. If there’s an ox cart, we can ask the ox cart driver to lead the way.”
Stone Village was a poor village, so the probability of them owning an ox cart was low. Still, they wanted to ask just in case,
Liu and the others would probably play cards until midnight, and the others in the house would still be awake. If they left the room now, they would be seen. Otherwise, they could go to the stable at home to get a carriage and put it into the space. Then, they could bring it to Stone Village.
