Chapter 641 Elopement
In the blink of an eye, December has entered.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and Daohua doesn't like to go out. She stays in the yard all day making medicine and dispensing medicine.
Although there is a war in northern Xinjiang, there are still caravans passing by. Sun Changze's family's fleet will make a trip every one or two months, which can help her carry some things to her two brothers.
"Girl, Yan Shouhou is here."
At the end of the year, each store and Zhuangzi began to submit their account books for this year.
Daohua nodded and met Yan Shouhou in the living room.
"Girl, the harvests of each village this year are very good. The village heads asked if they want to sell some grain?"
Daohua carefully looked at the summary of accounts of each village. When he heard this, he was silent for a moment. Thinking of the war in northern Xinjiang, he said: "Keep all the food and don't sell it."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shouhou immediately said no more.
Although he felt that there was a lot of grain stored in Zhuangzi, and it would be better to sell some, he knew better that the girl was a very thoughtful person, and if she said she would not sell it, then it would be best for him not to refute it.
After that, Daohua asked about the personnel situation of each village.
Yan Shouhou cherishes the opportunity to work by Daohua's side, and he doesn't dare to be sloppy in what he explains. He is very clear about the personnel of each village and shop. When Daohua asks, he can answer immediately.
After listening to Yan Shouhou's report, Daohua changed some of the positions of store managers based on what she knew, and then asked Yan Shouhou to step down.
As soon as they left, Wang Maner came over and said, "Girl, I want you to go to the front yard."
Daohua raised her head in surprise: "Brother, are you looking for me?"
Wang Maner nodded.
Daohua felt a little strange, but she quickly put down her account book and walked to the front yard.
As soon as she arrived at Yan Wenxiu's yard, Daohua saw Dong Yuanxuan sitting in the living room with an anxious face, and asked with surprise: "Brother Dong?"
Seeing Daohua coming, Dong Yuanxuan stood up quickly: "Sister Yan!"
Daohua entered the living room, met Dong Yuanxuan, and said with a smile: "Brother Dong, why are you here?"
Yan Wenxiu spoke at this time: "Sister, has Sister Dong exchanged letters with you recently?"
Daohua saw that the two of them had solemn expressions, and Dong Yuanxuan looked even more anxious. He straightened his expression: "Yuan Yao and I wrote through letters at the beginning of last month, but we haven't written anything recently. What happened?"
Yan Wenxiu glanced at Dong Yuanxuan and waved to the servants in the living room to leave.
After everyone left, Dong Yuanxuan said in a deep voice: "Yuan Yao eloped with others."
"What?!"
Daohua suddenly stood up, her face full of shock and disbelief: "Brother Dong, are you mistaken? How could Yuan Yao elope with others?"
In ancient times, elopement was a big deal.
Dong Yuanxuan was angry and hated that iron could not be made into steel. He reached out and slammed the table and said sadly: "I didn't expect Yuan Yao to do such a thing."
Daohua: "No, who did Yuan Yao elope with?"
Dong Yuanxuan looked resentful, gritted his teeth and said: "Sun Changze!"
Daohua's eyelids twitched, Yuan Yao was still trapped!
Dong Yuanxuan looked at Daohua: "Sister Yan, I came here to find you just to ask you, do you know where Yuan Yao might go? My grandmother, father, and mother are all going crazy now."
Daohua shook her head: "When did Yuan Yao leave home?"
Dong Yuanxuan: "The person disappeared the day before yesterday."
Daohua: "Have you sent anyone to look for Sun Changze's house?"
Dong Yuanxuan: "Why didn't you go? But everyone in Caogang said they haven't seen Sun Changze recently. It's related to Yuan Yao's reputation, and we can't find him in a big way, so we haven't got any news yet."
Thinking of his previous experience of going to Caogang, Dong Yuanxuan's face turned ugly. He couldn't figure out how his sister could fall in love with Sun Changze, who could only sell his labor to make a living: "Yuan Yao...she is so lethargic.
We are disappointed."
Daohua couldn't help but defend Dong Yuanyao: "Yuanyao is not a person who would abandon her parents and brothers. Maybe... maybe you are mistaken. She just went out to have fun."
Dong Yuanxuan smiled bitterly: "Actually, in the past month or two, everyone in the family has noticed something is wrong with Yuan Yao. Everyone always thought that she was reluctant to leave Zhongzhou. Who would have thought that she would elope with someone else."
Yan Wenxiu looked at Daohua: "Sister, do you think you can ask the young prince to help find someone?"
Dong Yuanxuan's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Daohua eagerly.
Although he no longer works with the young prince, he knows the young prince's ability. He can guess that the person who everyone in the capital is guessing now, Mr. Xiao, who is specially appointed by the emperor to command the Jinling Guards, is the young prince.
With Jin Lingwei helping to find people, it will definitely be fast, and it won't alarm too many people.
Daohua pondered, feeling a little hesitant in her heart. After a while, she looked at Dong Yuanxuan and asked: "We found Yuan Yao and Sun Changze, what will you do to them?"
Dong Yuanxuan's eyes turned cold instantly: "I am only responsible for bringing Yuan Yao back. As for Sun Changze, get out of here as far away as you can."
Daohua was silent for a while and asked tentatively: "Brother Dong, Yuan Yao can elope with Sun Changze, which shows that she likes Sun Changze very much. Is it possible for you to make it happen for them?"
Dong Yuanxuan said categorically: "It's impossible. My grandmother, father, and mother would not agree." The legitimate daughter of the Hou Mansion is paired with Caobang Caomang. If this news spreads, how will the Hou Mansion see anyone?
Yan Wenxiu looked at Daohua: "Sister, wait until you find someone to talk to about these things."
Daohua also felt that she had to find Dong Yuanyao first, so she nodded: "Okay, I'll send someone to find Xiao Yeyang."
Daohua directly asked Wang Manyer to go to Xiao Yeyang's new house and asked the people there to notify Xiao Yeyang.
An hour later, Xiao Yeyang appeared in Yan Mansion.
Seeing Dong Yuanxuan who looked tired and haggard, Xiao Yeyang patted him on the shoulder: "I have sent people out, don't worry too much." That afternoon, a secret guard came to report that he was on a side of the Grand Canal.
Sun Changze and Dong Yuanyao were found on the tributary.
After talking to Mrs. Li, Daohua and Yan Wenxiu followed Dong Yuanxuan and Xiao Yeyang to find her.
When they arrived, Ambassador Dong had already arrived with his people.
Before he even got close, he heard Dong Yuanyao crying and begging for mercy.
"Father, my daughter is coming back with you. Please let him go."
Ambassador Dong's face was full of anger: "Let him go. He dares to kidnap the daughter-in-law of the Marquis and run away with him. Even if he dies a thousand times or ten thousand times, it won't be enough." After saying that, he looked at being put into a pig cage with a gloomy face.
Sun Changze with his mouth blocked.
"After reincarnation, be a good person and don't trick other people's girls into elopement."
A fierce gleam appeared in the eyes of Governor Dong. He raised his foot and kicked Sun Changze into the river with a 'bang' sound.
"No!"
There were stones in the pig cage, and in the blink of an eye, the cage sank into the river.
When Dong Yuanyao saw it, he screamed in despair. He was so anxious that he fainted.
