Chapter 136: Transporting Food
Chapter 136: Transporting Food
After dinner, Gu Lingyue gave the extra antidote she had made to Tang Minghan, asking him to feed it to the people who needed it most first. She then asked for paper and pen, wrote down all the herbs needed, and gave them to Tang Minghan.
Tang Minghan handed the thing to Tang Wenqing and asked him to do it.
When the women saw that the men had something to do, they said goodbye and left.
"Third brother, take some people with me to transport food later." Gu Lingyue said.
"Is there really food?" Tang Minghan exclaimed.
"Of course, there are quite a few." Gu Lingyue nodded with a smile.
"Okay, Third Brother will go and recruit the troops right away."
Having said that, Tang Wenqi walked outside.
Gu Lingyue quickly said, "Fourth brother, we'll wait for you at the city gate."
"understood."
After Gu Lingyue and Long Shang said goodbye to Tang Zhenhong and Tang Minghan and left the main hall, they drove out of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
In the car, Gu Lingyue moved Tang Wenle out of the space. At this time, Tang Wenle was still holding a fork in one hand and a box of instant noodles in the other and eating.
He was surprised when he saw himself appear outside.
Seeing Tang Wenle's happy expression at this moment, Gu Lingyue laughed out loud.
Tang Wenle chuckled, "I was really hungry, so I found some food..."
As he spoke, he slurped a mouthful of noodles and said, "But this thing is so delicious. I have never eaten noodles so delicious."
While driving, Long Shang turned his head and looked at him with a look of contempt.
"A grown man is actually crying out for food in the face of so much food. He deserves to die of starvation."
Tang Wenle wanted to retort, but when he thought about the food that Long Shang had cooked in the space, he decided to shut up.
"Fourth brother, do you know where to store food nearby? I can move all the food out of the space and then let third brother take it."
After hearing this, Tang Wenle started to think seriously.
"There's a run-down inn not far from Youzhou City. It used to be a black market shop, but after the owner was arrested, the house became empty. Although it's a bit run-down, it's still okay for a short while."
"Okay, let's go there."
Just as Gu Lingyue asked for the route, she heard the sound of horse hooves and wheels coming from behind.
She knew without looking that it was Tang Wenqi who brought people here.
"Fourth brother, go into the space and hide first." As he said that, he sent the man into the space.
Tang Wenqi dismounted and came over. "Yue'er, where are we going to move the food?"
His eyes kept looking into Gu Lingyue's car, and the meaning was self-evident.
But how could Gu Lingyue let him ride in the car? If he sat in the car, how could she move the food out?
"Third brother, do you know there's an inn up ahead?"
"I know. It was me who led the team to eradicate that shady shop."
"The food is right there, let's go over there."
After saying that, she didn't even wait for Tang Wenqi to speak and asked Long Shang to drive the car towards the black shop that Tang Wenle mentioned.
Tang Wenqi: ...
Is it so difficult for him to take a car?
At this time, in Zhong Wanqian's room in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
Zhong Wanyi came to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to accompany Zhong Wanqian because Tang Wenqing was not at home.
Although Tang Wenqing came back today, he was busy and not at home, so Zhong Wanyi stayed with Zhong Wanqian in her room.
"Yier!"
"Well, what happened?"
Zhong Wanyi was thinking about something when she was suddenly called by Zhong Wanqian. She looked up at her in confusion.
"I asked my mother to find out about having children. Did you find out?" Zhong Wanqian said with a worried look on her face.
She and the second son's wife were married into the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion one after another. At this time, the second son's wife was already four months pregnant, but there was no movement in her belly. How could she not be anxious?
Zhong Wanyi shook her head. "I haven't heard mother mention it. I guess she hasn't found out."
"Oh, I see." Zhong Wanqian looked disappointed.
At this moment, Zhong Wanyi suddenly thought of something and said, "Sister, does Prince Jing have a concubine?"
Hearing this, Zhong Wanqian suddenly looked up at Zhong Wanyi.
"Are you interested in the prince?"
Zhong Wanyi lowered her head, blushing slightly as she spoke, "I know I can't compare to the princess, but Daddy is also the governor of Youzhou. With my status, being a concubine shouldn't be an option, right?"
"Silly sister." Zhong Wanqian patted Zhong Wanyi's shoulder and said helplessly, "Let's not talk about whether you can become the prince's concubine. You have seen that the prince treats Yue'er very well. If you marry him, you may not be doted on."
Hearing this, Zhong Wanyi frowned, and after a moment, she said firmly: "How can I know that the prince doesn't like me if I don't try?
"Sister, when I first saw the prince today, I fell in love with him. No matter what the outcome, as long as I've tried, it's better than doing nothing. More importantly, if I marry the prince, our family will be royal relatives. Doesn't father want to be an official in the capital? When the time comes, it won't be a big deal if I ask the prince to smooth things over for me."
Seeing her sister's stubbornness, Zhong Wanqian sighed deeply, "Then I'll talk to your brother-in-law and ask him to help ask around. If that doesn't work out, you can find someone to marry into."
"Thank you, sister." Zhong Wanyi happily hugged Zhong Wanqian, but her eyes showed a determination to win.
The two sisters started whispering to each other again on the bed.
At this time, Gu Lingyue didn't know that the woman who fell in love with her man was already thinking about marrying her man.
She and Long Shang had already parked their car in front of the abandoned inn, and Gu Lingyue brought Tang Wenle out.
"Fourth brother, is this the place?"
"Yes, it's here. But why is it so dilapidated?" Tang Wenle muttered as he got out of the car.
Gu Lingyue raised her eyes, took a look, and then got out of the car.
The houses here have collapsed, and a lot of the walls have collapsed, but the yard is big enough, so there is no problem storing the grain.
It doesn't matter even if there are problems. All she wants is an excuse. As for what others think, that's their business.
At this time, Long Shang also got out of the car.
The three of them directly crossed the broken wall and entered the yard. They searched everywhere and found that there was no one. Then Gu Lingyue came to the middle of the yard and moved out all the food stored in the space.
After waiting for another half an incense stick of time, Tang Wenqi finally arrived with his convoy.
As they arrived, they saw the dilapidated yard filled with sacks.
"So many!" the soldiers exclaimed in surprise when they saw it.
"How can the food rations for an army of 300,000 be insufficient?" Tang Wenle raised his chin proudly.
Long Shang said indifferently, "I'll leave this to you two."
After saying that, without waiting for Tang Wenqi and his brother to say anything, he took Gu Lingyue's hand and walked towards the car.
Tang Wenle quickly shouted, "Wait for me, I want to go back too."
But at this time, Long Shang had already driven away.
