Chapter 472 Come back, come back

There are so many people coming to give gifts.

Even if Zhao Ce did nothing all day long, he would not be able to finish the reception.

In this regard, he could only ask Aunt Chen to guard the door and specifically reject people who came to give gifts.

As for items received previously, they cannot be returned.

Su Cai'er was busy sorting it out and putting it all into storage.

Zhao Ce thought about buying a few more manpower, and asked Xu Fang to go to the dental shop to handle it without having to step in.

When He Jinyin saw Zhao Ce's book boy Xu Fanglai, he smiled even more flatteringly.

Soon he helped Xu Fang get everything done.

Xu Fang brought a total of ten people back.

They are all servant women who are strong or have special skills, and some are their husbands or just mature men alone.

These people knew that their master was Uncle Yong Xibo, who was the most popular man in the city recently, and all of them were extremely happy.

When the people came back, they recognized the way and asked them to go down to wash and rest.

Zhao Ce and Su Cai'er are about to return to the countryside to worship their ancestors.

While packing her things, Su Cai'er said to Zhao Ce, "Husband, I have received a lot of invitations to banquets in the past two days."

The ladies in the city have been sending invitations to Su Cai'er in the past two days, inviting her, the newly promoted Mrs. Yong Xibo, to attend the banquet.

Su Cairen had received some invitations to these gatherings before, but she felt that she didn't know a few words, so she didn't attend.

Now that she is more literate and her husband's status is different, Aunt Chen also suggested that Su Cai'er could attend some banquets that interest her.

It's a pity that Su Cai'er and the others are busy going home and don't have time to go.

Zhao Ce suggested: "If you want to participate, we can leave two days later."

Su Cai'er shook her head decisively: "It's better not to go home. It's more important to go home and worship the ancestors. There will be more opportunities to attend these banquets in the future."

After being out for so long, Su Cai'er also missed the people in the village and their own home.

In addition, this time the husband went home to worship his ancestors because he received a great honor. How could some small banquet stop them from returning home?

Zhao Ce said indifferently: "Okay, then you decide, I don't care."

Su Caier said happily: "I selected a lot of things in the warehouse and took them back. My aunt and sister-in-law can all use them."

"And Wen Li, I specially prepared good rouge and gouache for her. They will definitely be happy when they see it!"

As Su Cai'er spoke, she checked the list she made again.

She had no one to teach her, and by getting along with a limited number of people every day, she gradually figured out her own housekeeping skills.

Zhao Ce saw her talking about the housekeeper's words in detail, and the smile in his eyes became even stronger.

...

Aunt Chen and another couple were left to watch the house in the city.

Zhao Ce hired two more carriages for the rest of the people and took them back to their hometown together.

There will definitely be a lot of things to do after returning home. Taking them back to do things will allow Zhao Ce himself to have some leisure time.

When the two of them set off, when the carriage that Zhao Ce was sitting in arrived at the city gate, he saw that his classmates had come to say goodbye to them.

"Zhao Ce, are you going back to the countryside to worship your ancestors?"

"When you come back, let's have wine together!"

Zhao Ce was in the carriage and smiled and said to everyone: "Thank you all, I will definitely thank you for your help when I come back."

Regarding Liu Ruyu’s previous incident, he also said that he would specifically thank them.

Now that I am busy returning to my hometown, I can only put it down temporarily.

However, Zhao Ce's words actually made them happy.

After all, the people who can drink with Zhao Ce now are all people with good relationships.

Everyone bid farewell to Zhao Ce and his family.

After Zhao Ce lowered the curtain, the carriage started running again.

We chartered two large boats together at the pier and really embarked on the way home.

Watching the boat gradually move away from the dock, Zhao Ce couldn't help but smile and said: "This is a real homecoming..."

Passing by the temple on the way, Su Cai'er specially took him to the main hall to worship while he was resting inside, and also gave him a lot of money for sesame oil.

My husband was able to accomplish this great feat this time, and everything started from here.

Su Cai'er didn't know if it was God's will, but it was always right to be more sincere.

The next day, a group of them arrived at the dock in the county town.

As soon as he got off the boat, Zhao Ce heard a loud shout: "Zhao Ce, sister-in-law, we are finally waiting for you!"

Zhao Ce and Su Caier turned around and saw Wu Xueli and his servants walking quickly towards them.

Zhao Ce was a little surprised and said: "Brother Xueli, what a coincidence, why are you here?"

Wu Xueli said happily: "We have also received news in the city that you have been knighted. My father said that you must come back to worship your ancestors, and asked me to bring someone to pick you up."

"There aren't many carriages here at the dock, so I'm afraid you might have brought too many things."

"I've been staying at the inn here at the pier for a few days, and I'm waiting for you to come back."

Zhao Ce smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you very much."

Wu Xueli said happily: "Thank you for what? Now you are the famous Uncle Yongxi. These are all what I should do."

After saying that, Wu Xueli said regretfully: "It's a pity that I didn't go to Fucheng, otherwise I would definitely have to follow you on the field to kill the enemy, and do a small job to get some praise from the Holy Master."

Now Zhao Ce's identity is completely different, but Wu Xueli doesn't seem to have changed much.

He still treated Zhao Ce with the same attitude as before, which made Zhao Ce feel very comfortable.

After Wu Xueli finished speaking, he looked behind him and said with some regret, "Shu Bai didn't come back."

Zhao Ce also felt a bit pity.

At the banquet hosted by Lun Mingyi that day, Qiu Shubai did not attend because he was from Class B.

This also missed an opportunity to make a contribution.

But if he goes, Mr. Lu will probably be worried.

Zhao Ce smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go back first."

Wu Xueli asked his family to help Zhao Ce carry his luggage.

With more people, moving things is much faster.

By the time everything was moved and a group of people got on the carriage back, only half an hour had passed.

Zhao Ce and Su Cai'er were sitting on the carriage in front, looking at the road getting closer and closer, feeling very excited in their hearts.

This carriage does not need to detour through Fucheng, it goes directly back to Shuiqiao Village.

When we arrived near the village, we could already faintly see a large group of people standing at the entrance of the village.

There were people at the front announcing the letter and shouting: "I'm back, I'm back!"

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the village. Zhao Ce opened the curtain and unexpectedly saw Magistrate Zhang standing in front.

Zhang Xianliang stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle, I hope you are back."

Zhao Ce also smiled and greeted him: "Excuse me, Mr. Zhang."
