Chapter 1054

....
1054 Chapter 1054-one day apart is like three months
As there were many people present, Gu Nian and her friends had a meeting that night.
She didn’t dare to bother her mother at night now, as her father would definitely dislike her. So, when her mother was pregnant, the other things could be done by the sisters.
She didn’t expect the Emperor to give her so many people. He had directly gathered all the infrastructure teams for her. She didn’t need to wait for fourth uncle to come over, and she didn’t need to borrow the Peng family’s blacksmiths.
She knew about Gu Xin’s plan to build a food street, so she told her directly that the food street would start construction after the public outhouses in the city were completed.
Gu Xin was overjoyed when she heard this. She expressed that she was very free recently. Sister, if you have any instructions, just tell me and I’ll complete them. Sister, you can continue your research and I’ll definitely get it done for you.
Gu Hui and Jing talked to the princess about the maintenance of the city wall, as well as the fact that the Peng family would occasionally bring their troops for a drill to test out the wall that was made of cement.
Of course, the effect was very good. In the era of cold weapons, it was impossible to destroy the city walls. In other words, the protection of kun city had been upgraded, which was beneficial for them to earn money in peace.
Gu Nian immediately assigned work to Gu Xin and Gu si, and Huo Yanyu followed them wherever they needed to go.
Gu Xin waited for Gu Nian to finish speaking before she suggested visiting the place that the fourth Mrs. Peng had mentioned earlier. The weather there was great.
It would only take a day to go back and forth. She was worried that her family would not allow it, so she wanted to ask everyone to go together. When the time came, she would ask her uncle to go over and take a look. If it was really suitable for farming, they might as well open up a large piece of land there. As for the people who would open up the land, she could directly let the fourth lady of the Peng family handle it. There had been no war recently, so it would be fine to transfer a group of the Peng family’s Army.
Her older sisters assured her that this matter was completely doable. When Gu Hui and Princess Jing were on leave, they would just take another day off.
The next time they rested was nine days later, so the sisters agreed on a time.
Nine days was enough time to make arrangements for the people from Qing Province and the people sent by the Emperor.
It was getting late. The servant girl came in and asked the young ladies if they wanted to wash up. The water was already hot.
Seeing that it was almost time, Gu Hui asked the maidservants to prepare.
Huo Yanyu suddenly smacked her head and exclaimed. She looked at Gu Nian and asked, ” “AI, it’s all because you sisters made me miss you so much. I forgot there was one more thing.”
Gu Nian was confused.
Huo Yanyu stood up and said,”wait a moment!” I’m no longer a little fairy for the time being. I’m a little messenger pigeon who was mesmerized by beautiful sisters and forgot my mission. I’ll go get it now!”
After he finished speaking, he got up and went back to his room.
After a short while, she returned with an exquisite silk handkerchief wrapped in something and handed it to Gu Nian.
“Little messenger pigeon, who asked you to deliver a letter?” Gu Nian blinked.
Huo Yanyu smiled and said,”yes, he’s a Langjun who many girls in the capital like. He asked me to bring something to a girl from afar.” I don’t even know if I believe it! I didn’t open it on the way here!”
Princess Jinghe jeered,”little carrier pigeon, is Langjun’s surname Xue?” He’s wearing black all day and has no expression on his face.”
Huo Yanyu nodded and said,”that’s right!” Sister Zhen, you’re so amazing. You even know this.”
The Gu sisters laughed along.
They didn’t dare to make a fuss anymore. The memory of li Muyan’s incident was still fresh in their minds!
The three of them then pulled Huo Yanyu and Princess Jinghe out of Gu Nian’s room.
Gu Nian opened the box and found a book inside. The Book of Songs?
She was a little confused. It must be a gift from Xue qianxun!
However, what was the meaning of a book of the Book of Songs?
She opened it subconsciously and found a Maple Leaf in the middle. She didn’t know how long it had been there, but it looked like the specimen she had made before.
She took down the Maple Leaf and looked at it under the oil lamp. There was nothing special about it!
When she put the Maple Leaf back, she saw the contents of that page.
Qing Qing Zi Gu, my heart. A day without seeing each other was like three months.
Her entire body trembled. The Maple Leaf represented longing.
