The light rain is misty, and the river is gloomy. The Locke sisters left the Rong Mansion early in the morning, and the canopy and vermilion wheeled car stepped out of the sparkling echo in the wet streets and alleys.

When he looked back, the Rong Mansion was already hidden in the thick greenery, and it was gone in a blink of an eye.

In the morning, Mrs. Cheng sent Jin Hai to say goodbye, and the uncle of the Rong family was going to Lin'an, the capital, so he could send them off by the way, so he didn't send someone else to see them off. Luo Yan smiled and thanked Jin Hai and asked her to ask the old lady and ladies on her behalf. Jin Hai smiled and sent them to the gate of the Rong Mansion.

Rong Rui was already waiting by the car, and when he saw Luo Chan's eyes, a smile flashed in Luo Chan's eyes, and this smile made Luo Chan feel a wave of heat in her heart......

Luo Chan sat in the car and lifted the curtain from time to time to look out. Rong Rui was riding on a horse, wearing a dark water ripple feather gauze on his body. Swing with the wind, and half a drop of light rain does not stick to your body.

Luo Yan looked at the smile on the corner of Luo Chan's mouth, and occasionally flew two pieces of red on her cheeks, and knew that Rong Rui was looking back at her again......

Dongguandu, the east gate of Yangzhou Mansion, is blue one after another, people come and go, and it is worthy of ten miles of spring breeze Yangzhou Road.

Luo Yan got out of the car, and at a glance, the water and sky were the same, and the black canopy painting boat seemed to be in an ink painting.

Rong Rui dismounted and called the boatman to answer. He went to Lin'an, the capital, to send the Luo sisters to the dock, and then they had to take the land route.

Luo Chan stretched out a hook with a pair of phoenix eyes and looked at Rong Rui whimperly. Every time Rong Rui turned around and met her gaze, it was like losing his soul. She has bet all her money on Rong Rui, hoping that he will marry soon. Thinking of his wife Yang Wan in the family, he was inexplicably worried about how long Yang Wan would dominate the position!

Sister Luo Yan got on the boat, Rong Rui turned around and patted the horse, and left along the long street with the two little guys.

Luo Chan stood at the bow of the boat in a daze, reluctantly staring at the figure of Rongrui on the causeway, accompanied by Liu Er and Qing'er and did not dare to ask more.

Luo Yan got into the cabin and leaned comfortably on the brocade. Seeing Jiu'er lying on the porthole and looking out curiously, she let her.

From time to time, from outside the ship, broken rain and light mist drifted in. Fu'er stopped doing it and slapped Jiu'er's hand, "Miss don't say it, you don't realize it." Seeing that the brocade is wet, it will take more than half a day to get home, how can this be comfortable. ”

Jiu'er stuck out her tongue and closed the porthole.

After crossing the causeway, Rong Rui turned around and glanced at the painting boat that was moving away, the figure on the bow of the boat shrank to a point, and he still recognized it as Luo Chan. Wiping the moisture on his face, he turned over and got on the horse, kicked hard under his feet, and the horse ran up to the post road. 100,000 urgent, Rong Chunniang is waiting for him to save his life!

The boat had passed through a light rainy day, and by noon the sky was clear and the sun was shining. A few people stayed in the cabin and were bored, lifted the canopy curtains around them, and suddenly felt refreshed.

Suddenly, there was a jolt, and the boatman shouted, "Girls, sit down, we have to give way to the official boat." As soon as the words fell, the bow of the painting boat turned sharply.

Jiu'er and Qing'er were chatting, and without warning, they both rolled into the cabin. Luo Yan grabbed the cabin, and Fu'er leaned against the wall to help her press the brocade pestle.

Luo Chan's body was unsteady and tilted to the side, and her face was pale, "Will the ship sink!" We're not going to die! She burst into tears as she spoke, of course she didn't want to die, and her good wish had not yet been fulfilled!

Liu Er reached out to grab her, not wanting to be hurt by her long nails. The black and red face was shocked and painful, and sweat was oozing......

The painting boat finally stabilized, Jiu'er got up, pouted and pointed to the official ship that was rubbing her body, "It's too bullying!" The official ship is amazing! ”

Qing'er got up and covered her mouth, "Grandma, don't you dare to say that." Don't die! It can't hurt all of us! ”

Luo Yan looked at the two-story ship that was passing by, and sighed, "I'm going to pay tribute to the Jin State again." ”

"What is a tribute?" Jiu'er blinked, and Qing'er and Liu'er also looked at her curiously.

Luo Chan, who was a little frightened, also looked at her, Luo Yan always had something in her head that she didn't know, and she wondered why Luo Yan knew more about the same private school teacher.

Luo Yan pondered for a moment, and when the official ship walked away, she said with a lonely expression: "The shame of Jingkang is still there, the national strength is not prosperous, and the garrison is not strong. and they will be slaughtered. The tributary negotiation made peace, and three million taels of copper coins were sent to the Jin State every year, as well as silk, tea and other tributes. Just to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment, this is also no way! ”

"As long as the people have a good life, why do you care so much!" Qing'er has lacked food and clothing since she was a child, and only when she arrived at Luo's house did she have a stable life, thinking carefully, just seeking food and clothing.

Luo Chan glared at her, and she had no choice but to shut up. staring down at the bilge, I remembered the unbearable time of my youth.

"As the country is so, so are the people! Be a man and be a master, so that you will not be looked down upon and bullied. Luo Chan thought that as a concubine, she was not treated well everywhere, and she had expectations for the position of the Rong family's grandmother.

The painting boat docked at the end of the day, and Mrs. Luo and Aunt Baozhu led the maid to stand on the shore, and they had been waiting at the dock for a long time......

Back in Ji Garden, Mrs. Luo had already sent someone to clean up in advance. The swing frame of vermilion lacquer stands quietly in the pear orchard where the flowering period has passed. But after a few days away, I feel very fresh and kind.

Luo Yan changed into homely clothes, sat in front of the window, and looked at the sun hidden in the treetops outside the window, her mind wandering.

The woman made a new tea and put it on the table, seeing her like this, she didn't want to bother. took the exquisite hollow flower smoke, lit the incense crumbs, and went out to wait.

The aroma filled the whole room in a moment, Luo Yan came back to her senses and asked Yu'er to take two volumes.

The woman came in and looked at her with a smile. Luo Yan got up and looked at the empty bookshelf, her eyes instantly dimmed. "Alright, you go out! When I didn't say. ”

"How can you not say it! The slaves and maids have to do what the young lady commands. Wait a minute. She smiled and turned to go out, and after a while she really brought in two books.

Luo Yan took a look at "Selected Words of Hua'an" and "Essays on Kezhai", her eyes bent, and she smiled, "I just said that the slaves and maids ordered by the young lady have to be done, didn't these books let you bury them?" ”

Yu'er reached out and grabbed the book, and her face was deliberately stiff. "Well, it's all the slave maid's mishandling, I thought that the young lady loved books, and I didn't want to really burn and bury it. Jiu'er, come here, this time we really have to burn books. ”

Jiu'er was napping in the outer room, and when she heard the laughter in the inner room, she quickly got up and went over. Looking at the book in Fu'er's hand with a confused face, "What's wrong! Those books are all in the firewood room, and they really need to fill the stove? ”

Luo Yan snatched the book from her hand and knocked on Jiu'er's head, "Two disobedient bad girls!" But the smile on his face was like the spring sun. It feels so good to be home!

After dinner, Mrs. Luo was helped by Ai'er to Ji Garden. Luo Yan has changed her small clothes and is leaning on the head of the bed and holding the roll. When you see your mother coming, you should get up and salute.

Mrs. Luo stopped her, "Don't move, you are tired from the boat today, I didn't want to talk about it, but this matter is urgent, it is better to decide it early." Mrs. Luo's face was embarrassed.

Luo Yan sat up straight, thinking that it was for the sake of the woman again?
