When Zhu Yan came to Jiangyang Commercial Bank, he saw that the Lin family caravan he saw yesterday was already busy loading his luggage. Yesterday it was almost loaded, and now it's just a matter of loading some sundries into the car.

Yesterday, the girl with big pigtails who was very familiar with her was working in a carriage with a few guys, but when she turned around, she saw Zhu Yan at a glance. She remembered the little girl deeply, the little girl, not only knew how to stay at home and embroider and work, but also had such a big courage to come out alone.

Really, I'm not afraid of meeting bad guys.

Zhu Yan felt that after a while, he saw that yesterday's braided girl was wearing a blue-gray dress, and jumped directly in front of him.

"You kid, do you really want to come with us?"

Zhu Yan looked at her, "Do you think I'm lying to you?" What do you have to deceive! ”

The girl with big pigtails smiled, disagreed with Zhu Yan's words, and said, "My name is Lin Qin, you can call me Sister Qin." ”

Zhu Yan hugged his fists and said, "Then I will ask Miss Qin to take care of me from now on!" ”

Lin Qin was provoked by her movements.

"Hey, you kid, that's funny! I'll call you Xiao Zhu in the future! ”

Xiao Zhu is a little pig, Lin Qin smiled, and there was a little ill will in his eyes.

But Zhu Yan felt that the name was just a code name, and it didn't matter what it was called.

"Sister Jean!" But there was still a hint of displeasure in her tone. Lin Qin saw that there was some power in the Lin family's caravan, and if she had a better relationship, maybe she could improve her treatment at that time. Moreover, Lin Qin also seems to be a very kind person.

Unlike the shopkeeper Lin of the Lin family's caravan, he doesn't smile when he looks like him, which makes people dare not greet him. It's always nice to deal with kind people.

However, the shopkeeper of the caravan really has to be able to calm the people in the caravan.

Shopkeeper Lin also came over after tea time, and Zhu Yan stepped forward to say hello a little timidly.

Shopkeeper Lin looked at her a little restrained, and couldn't help laughing: "You kid, you were so bold to leave with us yesterday, why, today is going to regret it?" ”

Zhu Yan shook his head and said, "No, it's just that I'm really sorry to trouble you." ”

She took out five taels of silver, handed it to the shopkeeper Lin, lowered her head and said, "Shopkeeper, I have saved money for a long time, not too much, I don't know if I can pay for the journey?" I don't know how far Jiangli County is, I heard them say it's far away. I, I don't eat much on weekdays, and when the time comes, I only eat a little bit. ”

Shopkeeper Lin looked at the little girl who was a little embarrassed in front of her, it turned out that she felt a little sorry for herself because she felt that her travel resources were too little! When I thought about it, I thought of my wife and children who were still waiting for my return at home, and my heart suddenly softened.

If five taels of silver were to be priced at the normal price, it would definitely not be enough, especially if you added the food expenses on the road. After all, the carriage has to run for more than ten days. Their caravan walked around the territory of Jiangli County, and it was time to return, and with one, Shopkeeper Lin also felt that it was no big deal, especially since this was still a child.

Lin Qin saw Zhu Yan come forward to talk to Shopkeeper Lin before, and originally wanted to do things first, but when he heard Zhu Yan's words, he shouted on the side: "Xiao Zhu, you can eat with me in the future." Even if you're a piggy, I can afford it! ”

Shopkeeper Lin glared at her, seeing that Zhu Yan was a little at a loss, and hurriedly reassured her: "It's okay, you can rest assured." Five taels of silver is enough, relax, don't be too nervous. Lin Qinxin is very good, don't be scared by her. ”

Zhu Yan hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile, "I won't." I know my sister cares about me! Thank you! After speaking, he gave Lin Qin a big smile.

Shopkeeper Lin and Lin Qin both laughed.

While they were laughing, a middle-aged man came over and said to the two: "Shopkeeper, Miss Qin, the car has been loaded." It's time to hit the road. ”

Shopkeeper Lin said on the side: "Lin Liu, have we taken all the things we want to bring?" Don't leave something behind, the owner won't be able to spare you then! ”

Lin Liu's face turned red all of a sudden, and his expression was a little embarrassed: "Shopkeeper, didn't I leave something behind before, and the owner said to forgive me." Shopkeeper, do you still remember? ”

Shopkeeper Lin looked at him and said, "I just want you to have a long memory!" ”

Lin Liu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you can take a look at the shopkeeper again." I think it's foolproof! ”

When Shopkeeper Lin heard him say this, he nodded and said, "Then I'll go with you to check it again!" ”

The two of them talked and went to the other end.

Lin Qin took Zhu Yan's hand and led her to her carriage. It can be seen from this carriage that Lin Qin's status is not low, although he is still under the jurisdiction of Lin Qin, but Lin is more kind to Lin Qin than strict.

The whole carriage can be said to be Lin Qin's, and there are some ornaments in it, and some things are used by girls at a glance. It was also only in the second half of the carriage that some cargo was placed.

There was also a small carved cabinet with several layers of drawers in the carriage. Lin Qin took out a drawer like a treasure, and there were candied fruits in the drawer, which made Zhu Yan sigh, this treatment is too good!

Lin Qin took a candied fruit and said to Zhu Yan: "Ah, open your mouth, my sister invites you to eat candied fruit." ”

Zhu Yan said to her helplessly: "Sister Qin, I'm not a child, don't tease me!" ”

Lin Qin was a little bored and said: "This journey is too boring, running around, I feel that I am going to be bored and moldy once!" ”

Zhu Yan is a little curious, going south and north, there are a lot of things to see, how can it be boring, many people will have that kind of idea of breaking into the world!

She raised her own questions, but Lin Qin said a little bitterly: "No, if you go to some beautiful places, of course I am happy." But our caravans often go to places that are not very interesting at all. Like Jiangyang Town, there are no mountains and no mountains, and there is no water for water. Uh, don't stare at me like that! ”

Zhu Yan's face was a little unsightly, although she did know that Jiangyang Town really had nothing to boast about, but she still had to be unhappy if someone said so.

At this time, I only heard Shopkeeper Lin shouting outside: "Let's go!" ”

The Lin family caravan slowly walked out towards the entrance of the town.

When he was about to walk out, Zhu Yan stayed in the carriage and felt something, opened the curtain and looked out. This place is not on the edge of Qingbai Lane, and Zhu Yan rarely comes here, but this moment has this scene firmly in his mind.

Out of the town, the speed of the carriage was obviously increased, and Zhu Yan could hear the sound of horses' hooves when he stayed in the carriage.

Zhu Yan's hand had already lowered the curtain, but the expression on his face still made Lin Qin feel a little complicated, how to say it, it was not quite like the expression that a little girl who was only eight years old would have.

She was a little shocked by Zhu Yan's expression, and hurriedly pushed Zhu Yan, who didn't know what she was thinking, and said, "Xiao Yan, what are you thinking?" Why is it so weird? ”

Zhu Yan was woken up by her push, and quickly corrected his expression, rubbed his face and said, "I was just thinking, I don't know if I can find my mother!" ”

Lin Qin had already heard Jiang Nanyun say a little about Zhu Yan, but it was not very detailed, so at this time she asked Zhu Yan to make it clearer.

Zhu Yan couldn't help but move in her heart when she looked at her sincere expression, thought about it and said, "Sister Qin, I'm sorry, I actually lied to you." My mother is not in Jiangli County. ”

Lin Qin was a little angry, "Zhu Yan, are you playing with us?" ”

Zhu Yan said with tears in her eyes: "Sister Qin, no, it's just that my mother is far away, and I'm afraid that you won't take me there." However, when I get to Jiangli County, I will leave by myself. I won't bother you anymore. I'm sorry, Sister Jean. I can't help it! ”

Hearing her say this, Lin Qin's face finally eased, "Then where is your mother?" Don't lie to me again this time! ”

Zhu Yan leaned close to Lin Qin's ear and whispered to her: "My mother is in Jincheng!" Sister Qin, don't tell anyone about it. Uncle Lin looks so strict, I look scared. If he had known, he would have kicked me out of the car. It's our secret! ”

Lin Qin gasped and said, "Jincheng, it's so far away from Jiangyang Town, you actually went to find your mother." Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu, you are really bold! I'm so old that I don't dare to walk that far alone! ”

Zhu Yan smiled bitterly and said, "However, I don't want to stay by my father's side anymore." He has three sons, so he won't think of me! In particular, they were all born to his current wife. ”

Lin Qin shook his head a little disagreeingly: "Then you can't come out alone, what if you encounter danger?" ”

"Sister, you forgot, I said that my father was going to sell me to a lame family as a child daughter-in-law, so I escaped! I'd rather be killed by bad people than be a child bride. ”

Lin Qin couldn't tell her some dark things, so she had to secretly make up her mind to protect Zhu Yan well in her heart. I don't know why, as soon as she saw Zhu Yan at the beginning of the year, she felt that she was a girl with her own ideas, neither humble nor arrogant, although some adults do things, but they did it in her, it was not disgusting, and there was some cute feeling.

Since Zhu Yan called her sister, she took good care of her as her own sister.

So, along the way, Lin Qin really didn't expose Zhu Yan's lies to Shopkeeper Lin, and usually took care of Zhu Yan when he ate. From time to time, he gave Zhu Yan a few pieces of meat to eat, and looked at the few young men who had a good relationship with Lin Qin and were a little envious, so that they sometimes pretended to be angry and envious to talk to Zhu Yan.

"Ah, Xiao Zhu, your sister Qin is really good to you, but not so good to me. Why do you say that? ”

"Hehe, do you want to eat Sister Qin's meat, I'll go and tell Sister Qin, how about she get a few pieces for you next time?"

The man who spoke blushed and quickly waved his hand to refuse, and then ran away quickly.

Zhu Yan thought secretly: It's really young, and I don't dare to say it if I have a good impression in my heart.

But after that, Zhu Yan told Lin Qin that she shouldn't treat herself so specially, after all, she really didn't pay much money, she was really afraid that those people would have opinions about her, and she could be regarded as deceiving their feelings!

Lin Qin didn't care about this, in her mind, she could be good to whoever she wanted, but since Zhu Yan said so, she didn't do it so conspicuously.

Sometimes, when Zhu Yan ate in the carriage, he would pull out a few slices of meat from the bottom of the bowl. She knew who it was, because Lin Qin had a very good relationship with the lady in charge, and it must be because Lin Qin told her that she had the current treatment.

Lin Qin often said that Zhu Yan looks small, and he must eat more meat to grow healthy.

Zhu Yan accepted Lin Qin's kindness, and secretly took note of Lin Qin's care in his heart, thinking that if life was better in the future, he would repay her well.

She thought she would have to eat the dry food distributed by the caravan all the way.
