Chapter 255: You Are Stupid
When Xiao Caoer heard this, she was slightly stunned, and then her eyes fell on Qi Xingyun's face. She stared at Qi Xingyun for a long time, and saw that the other party still had a smile on his face, looking at her with a gentle and kind smile. In desperation, Xiao Caoer had to pout her pink little mouth, stretched out her little hand to dig in her sleeves for a few times, and soon she took out a pen, ink and a piece of paper, and handed them to Qi Xingyun.
Qi Xingyun took the paper, looked around, and soon found a large, flat and smooth stone not far away. So he walked quickly to the stone, spread out the paper, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink. After a little thought, he began to write with great vigor.
Qi Xingyun quietly waited for the ink on the paper to dry up. During this time, his eyes never left the letter, as if he was thinking about whether there was anything missing. When the ink was completely dry, he did not ask Xiaocao'er if she had an envelope. He directly folded the letter and the paper Xiaocao'er had just given him together, with skillful and neat movements.
Then, he turned around and handed the folded paper to a guard beside him. He pointed to a bag of potatoes on the ground and ordered solemnly: "Send the letter and potatoes back to the palace immediately. Remember, you must hurry! And you can send it directly to the palace."
The guard quickly responded, "Yes!" After that, he reached out to take the item, turned around and was about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Xiaocao'er's crisp voice.
"Wait! Be careful, don't hurt those potatoes. If their skin is scratched, they will easily go bad." Xiao Cao'er warned seriously.
"Yes, young lady." The guard responded and left.
After the guard left, everyone started to clean up the remaining potatoes.
However, a headache arose - even if each person carried a bag, they still couldn't take all the potatoes away at once. At this time, Ermao scratched his head and said, "What should we do? We can't take all of them at once. Why don't we take some down the mountain first and then come back to get more."
Hearing this, Xiao Cao'er at the side couldn't help but rolled his eyes and scolded: "Ermao, you are not happy when I say you are stupid! Can't you use your brain! Look for a rope to tie the bag tightly, and then find a strong stick to use it to carry these bags down the mountain. In this way, can't you take them all at once? If you carry one bag at a time, you will have to run back and forth many times to get them all down the mountain." As he said that, Xiao Cao'er was ready to squat down and carry the backpack beside him.
At this moment, a big hand reached out and took the backpack. It turned out to be Qi Xingyun. He smiled and said, "Let me do it." Then he easily put the backpack on his shoulder. Then, he said to everyone, "Each of us can take some back first, and leave the rest to them. When they are done, they can take them directly back to the county town. However, are there any other special things about these things that need special attention?" The first sentence was said to everyone, and the second sentence was specifically asked to Xiao Cao'er.
Xiao Caoer paused for a moment, curled her lips, reached out her sleeve and took out a piece of paper, and handed it to Qi Xingyun. Qi Xingyun took the paper and looked at it, and almost couldn't help laughing out loud. He quickly raised his hand and touched his nose, trying to hide his expression of wanting to laugh.
As expected, the situation remained the same as before. Each time I asked, I could only get a little bit of information, and I could only get more information by asking more. If I didn't ask any more questions, I would assume that the other party already knew everything.
"Second brother, let's just take these potatoes in the baskets home to eat, and let Brother Xingyun and the others take the rest back. After all, if we move them all back home now, we'll have to send them to Brother Xingyun later. It's really troublesome to go through this back and forth, and it's easy to damage the potatoes by carrying them back and forth." Xiaocao'er said softly.
In fact, Xiao Cao wanted to push the discovery of potatoes onto Qi Xingyun, who would definitely promote their cultivation in the future. Now she could take some home to taste, and then lie that they were sent by Qi Xingyun so that her family could also enjoy the delicious food.
"Okay, no problem. I'll follow your instructions." Ermao nodded without hesitation.
Afterwards, everyone went down the mountain happily and lively. There had been people waiting for a long time at the foot of the mountain. It turned out that they were the people Qi Xingyun had arranged in advance to meet them. After putting down the potatoes, Qi Xingyun returned to the Yang family with Xiao Cao'er and others, carrying only three backpacks. As for how to deal with the potatoes, Qi Xingyun's guards were fully responsible.
