Chapter 113: Embark on the road
Lu Yunqian, who was walking in front, didn't see the look of the little maid behind her, but just instructed as she walked: "Xiaocui, you don't have to wait tonight, hurry back and pack your luggage, we will leave early tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes, Grandma Grandma. Xiao Cuiwei blessed her body, said goodbye to Lu Yunqian, and went back to her room.
After Lu Yunqian returned to the room, he rediscovered the jade pendant she had thrown under the pillow that day, and carefully examined it with the help of the light.
"I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon, the slap in the face was so fast. Lu Yunqian held his chin with one hand and the jade pendant with the other, and sat on the stool and pursed the corners of his lips helplessly.
"Tut-tut, host, does your face still hurt, do you need me to rub it for you?" System 1203 said to her, pretending to be innocent.
"......" alas.
"Who is to blame for this, I said let Zhou Lang go, you didn't have that experience to tempt me, let me go to Jinju to complete the task. How do I feel that the trip to Jinju is not easy. Lu Yunqian frowned, and found that something was wrong.
"How do I feel that you dug a trap for me to jump into?" she asked, raising a slender eyebrow.
"Ahem!" System 1203 immediately coughed twice in fright after listening to her slightly confused question, to ease the horror in its heart.
"Of course not, the host thinks too much. I still have time to see a doctor. It said.
"See a doctor?"
"Persecution paranoia. System 1203 whispered.
"You're looking for death. Lu Yunqian gritted his teeth and looked over.
"Don't hit someone, don't hit your face!" it hurriedly covered its face.
At night, one person was playing around like this for a while, and Lu Yunqian thought that he would have to hurry the next day, so he let it go and rested early.
Good enough to nourish the spirit.
Early the next morning, Zhou's mother took care of the carriage for her early, and after breakfast, she sent Lu Yunqian to the door.
Tightly pulled Lu Yunqian's hand, commanded over and over again, and instructed for a long time, but still didn't let go of her hand.
Lu Yun listened to them one by one with a smile, and nodded with a smile, seeing that the sun was gradually rising, she said to Zhou's mother:
"Mother, don't worry, don't worry, this journey is not far, take a carriage, you can arrive tomorrow, and I will write to you when I arrive in Jinju." ”
Mother Zhou looked at the sun and knew that she couldn't delay any longer, so she also nodded: "Let's go early, and write a letter back in the evening when we arrive at the post station where we rest." ”
Lu Yunqian said yes, then said goodbye to Zhou's mother, and took Xiaocui into the carriage.
"Come back early when you're done, and don't stay too long. Mother Zhou saw the carriage set off, and stood under the carriage uncomfortably and said again.
"Okay, got it. Mother, go back. Lu Yunqian lifted the curtain of the car and said with a smile.
Lu Yunqian watched Zhou's mother stand at the door of Zhou's mansion for a long time, and knew that she couldn't see it, so she went home.
"Alas. She lowered the curtain and sighed softly.
"It's only five days on the way back and forth, plus errands, at most ten days, how can this week's old mother be like marrying a daughter, and I can't wait to send it to the ten-mile long pavilion. System 1203 sighed twice at this point.
"Who knows, maybe I really pity Li Xianglan and treat her as my own child. ”
Her gaze was still at the curtain, vaguely remembering an evening some time ago. Ivy
As soon as she and Zhou's mother finished dinner that day, they went for a walk in the small courtyard of Zhou's house to eliminate food, and heard Zhou's mother say: "Son, we women can't help ourselves all our lives, and we can only be trapped in the inner house. ”
As he spoke, he patted her hands:
"My child, you are also a miserable person. My eldest man was arrested on the day he got married, leaving only our mother and daughter at home to rely on each other. Now I can't control Erlang, let him go high and wide, and it is better to make a career outside than to follow his brother's path. ”
"Xiaohuan'er is too young, I'm too old to be useful. In the future, she will also want your sister-in-law to take care of her. ”
Lu Yunqian felt bad after hearing this, and hurriedly stopped him with a frown: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, now that we are all here, my mother is full of children and grandchildren, and she will definitely be a blessed person in the future." ”
As he spoke, he patted her hand gently: "You, you are a blessed person, and you will keep your blessings and longevity in the future. ”
Mother Zhou shook her head after listening to her comforting words, smiled but did not speak.
After a long time, Lu Yunqian heard Zhou's mother sigh softly: "I'm old, I can't do it anymore." ”
She wanted to speak quickly, but Zhou's mother waved her hand and stopped her.
Lu Yunqian looked at the woman who was not very old, but was already full of frosty white temples and fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and felt a little uneasy in her heart.
It was even more Zhou's mother's desolate look that scared her.
"Mother, let's go back to the house early and rest. She said.
Mother Zhou nodded, and when Lu Yunqian was about to follow, Mother Zhou waved her hand and went back to the house by herself.
Seeing Zhou's mother send her off like this this time, she was even more uneasy.
"Grandma, grandma?"
was pondering, and suddenly was alarmed by a gentle and crisp female voice.
Lu Yunqian came back to her senses, looking at Xiao Cui, who was ruddy-faced, as if she was calling her, she responded: "What's wrong?"
"The coachman said it looked like it was going to rain outside, and I just looked and it was getting overcast outside. Xiao Cui bit her lip and said.
Hearing this, Lu Yunqian lifted the curtain slightly and glanced at the sky, sure enough, it was not as beautiful as when he had just gone out, the sun was shrouded in layers of clouds, and there was no light.
There was no shadow of the carriage walking on the ground, and the wind was blowing more urgently than in the morning.
After reading this, she lowered the curtain and said to the coachman, "Master, is there a hotel in front of you where you can stay overnight?" Otherwise, let's go over for tea first, and wait for the rain to stop before we leave." ”
The coachman thought for a moment and said, "There is a hotel, but it is still early today, if we only wait for the rain to stop, we will dare not get to the hotel that has been discussed in advance before dark." ”
Afraid that she didn't know, the coachman explained: "Young grandma doesn't know, I have been walking this road for not ten years but also seven or eight years, and I am still familiar with the terrain here." ”
"After passing this village, we arrived at the junction of the two armies of Jin and Yao, where the mountain road was eighteen bends and the road was steep, and people were afraid that there would be many troubles in that place. The villagers who lived in the mountains in the past two years have moved one after another, and now the place is truly deserted. ”
"There was no one on the way, let alone leaving at night, not to mention being afraid, even if we were met by the patrolling soldiers by chance, it is possible that we will be treated directly as spies. In the past two years, there have been more such people. ”
"We'll have to hurry across that mountain range and get to the post we told you about last time before we can rest safely. ”
Lu Yunqian thought about it, and saw that the sky was really bad, so he said to the coachman: "Otherwise, let's rest at the post station in front of here, and it will be too late to go on the road tomorrow." ”
"Alas, young grandmother. Xiao Cui on the side suddenly stopped her.
