That night, Margaret and the rest visited Byron's family.
Seeing that Margaret had come to visit, Glis didn't even know where to put her hands. She wiped the tables and stools in the house again and again, afraid that Margaret would get a speck of dust.
"Glis, don't be so busy."
Margaret couldn't help but laugh when she saw the girl's expression.
"I'm here to see Gru tonight. Please call him out.”
"Yes."
Glis hurried into the room and pulled Gru out of the porridge.
"Goddess?"
Seeing Margaret standing in front of him, Gru was stunned and immediately knelt down.
"I'm not a goddess, I'm just a warrior who happened to save you.”
Margaret dodged Gru's kneeling.
"I came here to ask you something.”
Seeing that the goddess refused to admit her identity, Gru knelt on the ground, not knowing what to do.
Suddenly, Gru noticed that someone was tugging at his clothes. He turned around and saw Glis looking at him with a blaming gaze.
"That's right. The goddess can't casually reveal her identity. Otherwise, if she's recognized, no matter who it is, they'll come and beg her. No matter the big or small matters, the goddess will have to help solve them.”
Gru hurriedly stood up and stood to the side with his hands down.
"Gru, I went to visit Mr. Edgar this morning.”
Seeing that Gru obviously didn't believe that she wasn't a goddess, Margaret couldn't be bothered to argue and said directly.
"Mr. Edgar thinks highly of you, and you're quite talented. I want to thank him for taking care of the people here for so many years, and I want to give him something in return.”
Gru was stunned when he heard that the goddess was willing to take him away.
"Of course, you can bring Glis with you.”
Margaret thought Gru couldn't bear to part with Grissy, so she quickly added.
Gru's heart could not help but heat up when he thought about how he would bring Glis to serve the goddess in the future, travel the world with her, and save the world.
But thinking of his grandfather who lived alone here, Gru suppressed the excitement in his heart and bowed to Margaret.
"Thank you for your guidance, miss, but Ge Lu has already made up his mind and will not leave this place.”
"Ah?"
Hearing Gru's answer, Glis couldn't help but cry out.
"Why?"
"Young Lady must know that Grandfather doesn't have much time left.”
Gru said sadly.
"In the village, only I know some medical skills. If anything happens to Grandpa in the future, I can always take care of him. Besides, my grandfather came here to treat the sick and save people. Although I am stupid, I seem to have some experience in learning medicine. As my grandfather's unworthy successor, I naturally have to inherit my grandfather's wishes and never leave this place. I hope Miss can forgive me.”
Gru raised his head to look at Margaret, ready to bear the wrath of the goddess, but he saw a look of admiration.
"Indeed, like teacher, like disciple.”
said Margaret.
"If you're filial, wouldn't I be perfect? I won't bring up the matter of leaving this place again. I hope that you will study your medical skills well and not forget what you said today.”
"Please rest assured, Miss. Ge Lu will remember Miss's advice.”
Gru was a little disappointed, but he still answered firmly.
The next day, Gru and Grissy saw off Margaret and the others in the morning sun. Margaret returned to the Adventurer's Association, sent a package to the Imperial Capital, and wrote a few letters. After that, she found Wendt and left the town.
**************************************************************
Half a month later, Wendt received a package. It was a set of mithril armor. With the equipment, Wendt was like a tiger with wings. He quickly cleared all the missions that had been piled up for a long time.
After another half a month, a fast horse rushed into Fara Village.
"Who's Gru?"
A young man who looked very arrogant asked the people gathered in the square.
"I am."
Gru hurriedly stood up and answered.
The young man didn't say anything more. He jumped off his horse and punched Ge Lu.
Ge Lu was shocked and immediately retreated. He was about to dodge this punch.
But for some reason, Ge Lu suddenly felt his heart tighten, and he hurriedly rolled backwards. The youth's arm seemed to have suddenly grown longer, and he hit the spot where Ge Lu was just now.
"Not bad indeed."
The young man laughed and stopped chasing.
"My name is York. I owe Margaret a favor. She asked me to teach you. I'll only teach you for a month. How much you can learn will depend on your ability.”
Hearing the young man's words, Gru knew that the goddess had not abandoned him. Tears blurred his eyes and he nodded firmly.
"What the hell."
York looked at the young man in front of him and couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
"Does that girl know magic? Why is everyone who has seen her so loyal to her? Fortunately, she was not a member of the Wang family. Otherwise, the next king would definitely be the queen.”
***************************************************************
Two months later, the kingdom sent a group of technicians from the Ministry of Agriculture to live in Wukan Town. They carved out a large piece of land around the town and began to plant a strange plant. By the second year, the plant was covered with dense seeds. The commoners who were helping with the harvesting said that seeing the good harvest of the plants, the adults from the capital were so happy that they were incoherent and drunk that night.
The next year, the kingdom issued an order to plant a plant called oil hemp in the red soil area around Wukan. They also sent a group of technicians to teach the local people how to extract oil and promised that if the oil could not be sold, the country would buy it all.
In the same year, the Palace of the Earl issued a rotation order. It stipulated that those who planted medicinal herbs in the swamp area could only stay there for five years at most, and the purchase price of medicinal herbs would be doubled.
Finally, the poor and silent Wukan area welcomed a vibrant life with the planting of hemp and the exchange of merchants.
***************************************************************
Six years after Margaret left, in a house in Wukan Town, a young woman was happily busy in the kitchen and occasionally reprimanded the little girl who ran around in the yard.
"Glis, I'm back."
A hearty voice sounded in the living room.
"Welcome back, Gru."
Glis hurriedly washed her hands and ran out of the kitchen to take the herbs from her husband.
"Where's Grandpa?"
"He couldn't stay idle and ran out to treat someone. He'll be back in a while.”
"Grandpa is really too much. It wasn't easy for him to move out of the village, but he's still unwilling to enjoy life.”
Gru said unhappily, reaching out to his daughter.
"Come, baby, let daddy hug you.”
The little girl giggled in her father's arms, twisting her head to avoid his beard.
The setting sun shone on the family in the courtyard, as if it had plated them with a golden light.
"It's been six years."
Glis suddenly said.
"Yeah, six years have passed in the blink of an eye.”
Gru looked at the setting sun in the sky and answered with emotion.
"Daddy, I want to hear a story."
After dinner, Edgar went to the town to chat with his acquaintances. Gru's family was enjoying the cool in the yard when the little girl suddenly said.
"Alright, Daddy will tell Baby a story today.”
Gru hugged his daughter tightly.
"Legend has it that in the depths of the swamp, there lives a goddess called Golden Magnolia. When kind people encounter difficulties, she will descend to the world and bring hope to them…"
"Is this story true?"
After listening to her father's story, the little girl blinked her big eyes and asked curiously.
"It's true."
Glis said to her child gently.
"Because my parents have seen that goddess with their own eyes.”
The sky gradually darkened. In the quiet night sky, the stars kept twinkling, and the moon gently shone on the earth. There were many people on the ground telling such legends to their children.
Legend had it that in the depths of the swamp, there lived a goddess called Golden Magnolia. When kind people encountered difficulties, she would descend to the world and bring hope to them...
