Chapter 38: Departure
The weather finally cleared up this morning, a change from the gloomy sky of the previous days. Early in the morning, the gate of Zhang's mansion was lively, more than a dozen carriages were parked in front of the door, and the stewards in the mansion were stretching out, directing this and reprimanding that.
"You kid is not good at asking for something, who can afford to miss his wife's business?"
"Are things tied, hold on tightly, don't fall off the road. ”
“……”
In Zhang's mansion, the family gathered in Wang's main house. Zhang Hou looked at a few children and said slowly:
"Listen to your mother on the way, and don't cause trouble. After entering Beijing, Brother Xiao must study hard, don't be playful, set an example for your brother, and don't embarrass me. I heard that your eldest cousin is quite famous in Beijing, and you can't be underestimated. Brother An is not young anymore, you can't do those little things anymore, your homework, I will have to check it carefully after I enter Beijing. ”
After listening to this, Brother An looked at Wang and secretly stuck out his tongue, and Wang touched his head soothingly.
"Sister Yu is the eldest sister, so you have to help your mother share the burden. Aunt Liang has a body, and trouble is inevitable on the road, so you can take care of it more if there is something on the road. Saitama nodded in agreement.
"Sister Jiao and Sister Yun should not be greedy for fun, reading and being a needlewoman is serious. After explaining a few children, he turned to Wang and said:
"Although the world is peaceful now, this is a long way, it is better to be careful, I have arranged someone to escort you. Don't be in a hurry on the road, don't walk at night. I also sent Butler Zhang to go with you, and he will take care of everything. This way you can also save some worry. ”
Wang nodded in response. At this time, she was feeling unhappy, and the matter of calculating Saitama did not come to fruition, and she didn't know if there was a chance later. These days, whenever Saitama comes to ask for peace, it looks more and more unpleasant, and Aunt Liang is pregnant, so the sullenness in her heart can't be released, so she doesn't have too much mood to deal with Zhang Hou. After Zhang Hou explained all this, he said:
"It's getting late, let's get ready to go. ”
The car to take back to Beijing has already been arranged by Wang, and Wang has his own car. Zhang Xiao sat in one, Saiyu and Qi Yun in one, Qi Jiao and An Ge'er in one, Aunt Liang in her own car, and her mother-in-law, maid and accompanying family guards worked until almost noon before leaving the city. Since the events of that day, Saitama has always been indifferent to Qiyun, at this time the two of them sat in a car, the atmosphere was slightly awkward, and Saitama didn't have the heart to deal with it, so he closed his eyes and leaned on the soft pillow to recuperate. Qi Yun sat there, although it was a very spacious car, but it made her feel depressed, and she regretted that she should have begged Qi Jiao to sit with her, even if she endured Qi Jiao's snoring and drinking, it was better than such an embarrassing tranquility. Time passed slowly in Qi Yun's thoughts, the car suddenly stopped, and Saiyu, who had been hazy and asleep, was also awakened, and saw Qi Yun also looked puzzled, so he asked:
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. Qi Yun replied, and as soon as the words fell, the car grunted again. Saitama didn't sleep well at this time, because Qiushuang and they were no longer in the same car, so they took two cups and put them on the small machine, Qiyun saw that he picked up the teapot in the warm suit, poured two cups of tea into the cups, and took one of them and held it with Saitama. Saitama took the tea and thanked him.
"That day, my sister really shouldn't have instigated my sister to look at plum blossoms, and she was greedy to make my sister worry, so that my sister was disciplined by his wife. Saiyu listened to it and thought, the danger of that day's events was as simple as a training, if it wasn't for Yang Gongzi's kind rescue that day, now he is destined to marry that gentleman, and the fire in his heart was lit by Qi Yun's fluttering words, but his face couldn't be revealed, so he smiled slightly and said:
"My own sister, why do you have to be like this, my sister is too outside, not to mention that my sister didn't mean to twist her foot that day, no one wants to. After saying that, he was silent. Qi Yun saw that she knew that the events of that day were not trivial, and she had heard her aunt mention a few words, but she was not very clear. It's not that if you lower your posture and apologize, Saitama will be relieved. I thought about Saitama's attitude towards myself when I first arrived in the temple that day, and when I looked at it today, I realized that I had completely lost this sister, but in order to please my wife, I couldn't care so much. The three sisters are all about the same age, and listening to what the wife revealed on weekdays, this time when they entered Beijing, they wanted to show the relatives of these people. Saitama escaped this time, and when she entered Beijing, she had her own old lady to call the shots for her, Qijiao needless to say, his wife would naturally plan for her wholeheartedly, but what about herself, her aunt is not favored, and she can't be pointed out, who else can she rely on except his wife. No matter how rich and noble people are, they don't dare to count on it, they just want ordinary good people. If you don't do what your wife wants this time, you don't know how your wife will clean her up, and the sisterhood is nothing compared to her own future. Thinking of this, Qi Yun was slowly relieved, and the little guilt in her heart disappeared without a trace.
"It's a little cold after sitting for a long time. Qi Yun said and tightened the clothes on her body.
"yes, I'm afraid it will be even colder when I enter Beijing, and it may be snowing over there. ”
"I don't know if the yard we live in is the same as before?"
"Do you remember? You were only five years old when you left. ”
"Still a little impressed. ”
"When we go back this time, our sisters can't live together, and we must have separate yards. ”
"yes, it's a bit reluctant. Saitama heard and knew that Qi Yun's heart was different, and she didn't break it, so she picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. It was at this moment that the carriage stopped. After a while, I heard the sounds of autumn frost and butterflies sounding outside,
"Miss, the post station has arrived, come down and rest. Saitama and Qiyun listened, took their hats and put them on, and got out of the car with the help of Autumn Frost and Die'er. It was already dark outside, and despite the thick coat, it was still shivering to come out of the car with the brazier burning. After sitting in the car for a long time, his legs were also a little numb, and Saitama, with the support of Autumn Frost, entered the post station. Steward Zhang had already set up the front station, and the courtyard had been cleaned up, so everyone quickly settled down. The Wang family sent someone to spread the word, they were all tired today, and the meals were sent to their respective rooms, and they would rest early after eating, and they would have to hurry early tomorrow. After Saitama had eaten, she sent Qiushuang to ask Aunt Liang how she was doing. After a while, Qiushuang would come to report that it was Mother Li who said that Aunt Liang was all right, so that the girl could rest assured, and the girl should also pay attention to her body. Saitama relieved herself and ordered the maid to change her clothes and settle down. After serving Saitama to bed, Qiushuang asked Qiuyan to rest first and stay overnight.
Due to the hard work of rushing during the day, everyone soon fell asleep. It was quiet inside and outside, and Qiushuang heard the breathing of Qiuyan and the little maids outside becoming even, and quietly got up and walked to Saitama's bedside, and called softly:
"Miss, miss. Saitama was not yet asleep, opened his eyes and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"Miss, in fact, Aunt Liang has something to do over there, and Mother Li didn't let me make a noise, so I didn't say anything just now. ”
"What's wrong with Auntie?" Saitama asked eagerly.
