The Farmer‘s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 44 - 44: Departure



Nie Cong took out a copper coin. There was a hole in the copper coin, so it could not be used. Was this a good thing?

Gu Yundong examined the copper coin for a long time but could not figure it out. Her puzzled gaze landed on Nie Cong.

“Alright, stop keeping us in suspense.” Aunt Ke glared at him.

Nie Cong coughed lightly and said, “When I was looking for Constable Jiang to write a letter, His Excellency happened to pass by. After knowing your situation, he asked me to go over and gave me this copper coin. The magistrate of Fengkai County was promoted by our Excellency. If you have any trouble in the future, you can give this copper coin to the county magistrate. He will help you.”

“Your lord… is really a good person. I wish him a peaceful life.” Gu Yundong did not know that the dignified magistrate was so free that he would pay attention to a small fry like her.

The corner of Nie Cong’s mouth twitched. Other than saying that the lord was a good person and would live a peaceful life, did she have any other description?

But Gu Yundong was right. How could the magistrate be so free? The reason why he remembered her was entirely because Nie Cong had mentioned it several times. Most importantly, it was the portrait of the person she had drawn.

Because of that character painting, the government office caught the bandit leader in just three days. Coincidentally, the new emperor had just ascended the throne and was paying attention to the disaster rebellion. The magistrate was the first to make a contribution, and it was a great merit. It also confirmed the rumors that the new emperor had been favored by the heavens and showed his face in front of the new emperor.

At this time, the new emperor was about to promote talents and boldly reorganize the officialdom to plant his own power. With this, the prefect magistrate became a person on the new emperor’s list. His position here expired, so it was basically no problem for him to be promoted to the capital.

Wasn’t it Gu Yundong who had helped him so much? And she was a girl. Didn’t that leave a deep impression on the magistrate?

Gu Yundong accepted the copper coin. She would not reject such a good thing.

In this day and age, money was not enough. She also needed power. Otherwise, no matter how much money she had, she would not be able to keep it. It would be best if she would not need this copper coin and letter. If she could use them, she would naturally not let them go for nothing.

Gu Yundong thanked him and put away the letter and the copper coin.

The next morning, just as the city gate opened, Gu Yundong left Fish Rice Alley with her family.

Aunt Ke did not go out to see them off. She was not in a good mood and had been staying in the room. When there was no sound outside the courtyard, she sighed and slowly walked out.

It was as if there was no one in the empty house at all. The children’s voices that had been chattering two days ago had disappeared.

Aunt Ke walked to the kitchen and seemed to be able to smell a faint fragrance.

Although they had not been together for long, Aunt Ke did like those two children. Even the ignorant Madam Yang made her pity her. She admired Gu Yundong, who had brought her mother and siblings all the way to Xuanhe Prefecture safely.

If this little girl was not a girl, her future achievements would be high.

What a pity.

Aunt Ke returned to the central room and saw a piece of paper on the table. She picked it up and realized that it was a recipe. On it were five or six dishes that she had liked to eat recently.

“This girl…” Aunt Ke laughed.

At this moment, Gu Yundong had already left the city gate and was riding a carriage to Yongfu Village.

The carriage was rented. Now that he had money, Gu Yundong would definitely not mistreat herself. It would take three days to walk from the prefectural city to Yongfu Village. If he rode a fast horse, it would only take one day..
