Chapter 112: On the Road to Beijing (1)

Liu Fuguan and Liu Huairan took Jiang Zijie's family, plus a Zhang Kang, and the road was a waterway and a carriage, and the journey was quite smooth, and there was nothing bad about it.

In fact, this is also reasonable, their convoy of more than a dozen carriages, there are dozens of guards alone. Being closely guarded by dozens of strong men riding tall horses, who are obviously not good at stubble, galloped all the way.

In front of the convoy there was also a flag with the emblem of Mumao Villa. Along the way, none of the big thieves had suffered a loss in Mumao Villa, and that flag alone could make them retreat. It's just that there are thieves who don't know and can't open their eyes to think about them, only to see that there are so many guards who are also cowardly.

The men were more comfortable along the way, and when they were tired of the carriage, they could go out and ride horses, but the women were suffering. When the carriage was moving, there was hardly anything to do except embroider on the carriage, read a book, and chat a few words to pass the time. The only time you can get out of the carriage is when you find a place to eat in the middle of the day and find a place to stay in the evening.

Fortunately, the carriages they took along the way were specially made by Mumao Villa, although they were far less than the three cars specially made by An Ruyi that could sit in the car and watch the scenery outside, but they were already excellent, at least the shock absorption effect was excellent, and it would not be bumpy at all when sitting inside. So except for being a little stuffy, everyone didn't suffer much.

Slightly lifting the curtain of the carriage window and looking out, Jiang Fang happily whispered to Liu Rong: "Mother, how many hours will we be able to go to the capital to see my uncle, aunt and sister Yue'er?" ”

"Nature is true." Liu Rong glanced at her little son who was sleeping in the nurse's arms, and smiled softly at her.

It's not easy to get out of this trip, if it weren't for the two sons who were admitted to Xiucai at a young age, this year is the year of Dabi, with the son going to the capital to catch the exam, they can just take care of it, and the excuse of safety with the great-grandfather and nephew was only relieved by her parents-in-law, and she and her father-in-law were able to take a few children into Beijing together. He was accompanied by Zhang Kang, the youngest son of Zhang's sister-in-law in Liujia Village.

Zhang Kang is also a capable person, like his two sons, he is only sixteen years old and is a talent. Thinking that Zhang Kang was gentle and elegant at a young age, Liu Rong looked at her daughter again, and was a little moved-Jiang Jian is also eleven years old now, and it is time to say that he is a family.

The Zhang family's son is good, and his daughter is not bad at all, and she has been raised according to everyone's standards over the years. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, needlework and embroidery, and housekeeper directors are not said to be top-notch, but they are also capable of everything. And the daughter also has two competing brothers. With him, the Zhang family is still low-married.

Liu Rong thought silently, thinking that it was better to discuss with Xianggong first, if Xianggong had no opinion, maybe he could mention it after seeing his brother and sister-in-law and see what they said.

About three o'clock in the hour the carriage gradually stopped.

Jiang Zijie lifted the curtain and came in, first took a look at his youngest son Jiang Zengwen, who was only one year old and still asleep, and scolded with a smile: "This little lazy pig has slept sweetly in the daytime after making enough noise at night." ”

"Not all children are like that." Liu Rong doted on her youngest son's meat, her red face was soft in her heart, and she also laughed, "How did time pass so quickly, it's noon again?" ”

"It's not close. The one who led the way said that after this place, there was no such open place for so many of us to rest. Jiang Zijie explained.

Then he touched Jiang Fang's little head and said, "We hunted pheasants and rabbits in the forest in front of us today, and we also got a deer." Huairan: They are talking about roasting their own meat and eating it. You can go and play too. ”

"Barbecue today, great? Daddy, I'll go over here. Jiang Fang's eyes lit up. She immediately lifted the curtain and wanted to get out of the carriage herself. Fortunately, outside the car, her personal maid eggplant had arrived, and the stool for getting off the car was also placed.

Carefully helped Jiang Fang to get out of the carriage, and the eggplant didn't forget to complain to her: "Miss, why are you in such a hurry to get off the car, the slave and maid almost didn't come up to help you, what should I do if I twist my foot again?" ”

"What a verbose girl. What are you afraid of, and no one blames you. Jiang Fang rolled her eyes, but she got out of the car before the eggplant had time to come over a few times, but once she didn't pay attention and twisted her foot, there was nothing wrong with it, but this girl has been verbose since then. always told her to get off the carriage slowly, to wait for her to come, but she had no memory. This eggplant is so annoying at a young age, it's really a worrying fate.

Although he dislikes eggplant in his mouth, he is also very unimpressed by her verbosity. But Jiang Fang still knows what is good and bad, and knows that this girl who has served him for many years is for her own good, and she is the most loyal to herself. So she is still very tolerant of eggplant, and she is very good to her on weekdays. For example, when she went out this time, she also brought one of the people who served her closely.

"Let's go to my brother and them. Daddy said they were having a barbecue, and there was venison today, and you had a good mouth. Let's go quickly, it's too late and the meat is cooked and there is no time to play. Jiang Fang was a little anxious and rushed forward directly. Eggplant rolled her eyes and hurriedly followed, not forgetting to grab someone to ask questions along the way.

After getting along for many days along the way, everyone has long been familiar with each other, and it was a guard who was caught by the eggplant and questioned him, so he naturally pointed them out the place. In fact, it is easy to find, and they can see clearly the place where they temporarily rest in such a big turn. Finding someone is not a struggle at all.

It was just the right time for Jiang Bin and Eggplant to run to him, and the three piles of burning Zhengwang fire had just been set up, and there was a long low table next to the fire, and a few large clean leaves were spread on it, and five or six rabbit meat that had been skinned and gutted and cleaned, and a large piece of venison leg meat were placed. In addition, there are quite a few seasonings and a jar of honey.

Liu Huairan was sharpening the bamboo stick, and Jiang Jianwen, Jiang Yiwen and Zhang Kang each took a sharpened bamboo stick and skewered the meat. When they saw her coming, everyone looked up and smiled at her. Jiang Jianwen directly handed her the rabbit meat that had been skewered in his hand.

Jiang Bin was not pretentious at all, took it and sat directly in front of one of the fires, began to skillfully brush the salt water, seasoned powder, and honey, and then lifted the rabbit meat to the fire and roasted it, turning it constantly while roasting. It's obviously not the first time she's done this. While roasting the rabbit meat, she asked, "Daddy said that there are still pheasants, why don't you see them?" How did you get so lucky to hunt deer today? ”

"We didn't hunt deer." Jiang Yiwen answered first.
