After successfully changing the topic, the father and daughter continued to walk to the south of the city, and by the time of the third watch, the lantern festival in the south of the city had dispersed, and Wen Shu smoothly met with the Lu Da girl and others who were disbanded.

Wen Tai watched Wen Shu raise his hand at him behind the richly dressed ladies, smiled, and followed the crowd out.

Although the lantern festival in front of the Xuande Gate is scattered, the lantern festival in other places will continue until dawn, and the people who can't sleep can go to other places to continue to play and watch the lanterns, and the city gate will also be opened all night tonight, so as to facilitate the people outside the city to enter and exit.

Lu Xingwan's body was weak, and after sitting for a few hours, his body was already a little unbearable, and he fell asleep as soon as he returned to the Hou Mansion, and Wen Shu and the others were going to leave for Cangzhou early in the morning, so they didn't go crazy anymore, simply cleaned up, and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, as soon as it was light, Wenjingyuan was in a hurry.

Lu Xingwan sat in front of the dresser without any energy, with a tired face, Yinhong and green willows were waiting for her to freshen up, while Wen Shu was finishing the final finishing of her package in the right side room, slightly excited in her heart.

After all, this is the first time she has gone far away from home when she is so old, and she also has a specific protection task, and the novelty is mixed with some excitement. Smelling the fragrance wafting from the kitchen in the front yard, she secretly swallowed her saliva, thinking that the chef Wang would also go on the road with them later, her heart was beautiful.

The chef who can be hired by the Hou Mansion, there is absolutely nothing to say about her cooking skills, in Wen Shu's opinion, the level is no less than that of the Ji chef in the private school.

I heard that this chef Wang was specially invited by Lord Lu for Miss Lu, and she only took care of the meals in the first courtyard of Wenjing Academy, and the rest of the Hou Mansion didn't care, but she had a monthly salary of thirty yuan every month.

While secretly smashing his tongue, Wen Shu felt infinite envy in his heart, envying Miss Lu for having such a good brother, and envying Chef Wang's high salary, and at the same time secretly encouraging himself to become a person with a monthly salary of 30 yuan like Chef Wang.

The matter of going to Cangzhou was decided earlier, and many things were prepared early in the morning, so although the courtyard was busy, it was not messy, and after grooming, Miss Lu still looked tired, and she didn't use much for breakfast, which was cheaper Wenshu.

Although she is a newly bought maid ring to the outside, the people in the courtyard, from Mama Chen to Yinhong, and Luliu all know that she was sent by the prince to protect the girl, and as for whether she sold herself, they don't know.

So every time I see her eating with the girl, it is only the order of the prince, although it is a little delicious, but there is not much dissatisfaction.

After a full meal, Wen Shu followed Miss Lu out of Wenjing Courtyard in good spirits, at this time the sky was just dawning, and the elders of the Hou Mansion had just risen.

The eldest girl in the family wants to go far away, and as an elder, she naturally has to say a few words, at this time, Weiyuan Hou Lu Zhenting and Mrs. Hou Guan are sitting in the main hall, waiting for Lu Xingwan to come over to say goodbye.

Lu Xingwan was not from the Guan family, but when he landed in front of Lu Zhenting, he showed twelve points of goodwill, and at this time he was telling Mama Chen: "Cangzhou is far away, and the late body is weak, don't slow down when you tell the coachman, it doesn't matter if it takes some time, don't be tired of the big girl, you know." ”

"Yes." Mama Chen responded.

Lu Zhenting looked at the eldest daughter who was sick and crooked and had no spirit, and sighed lightly in his heart, but he had nothing to say, so he only asked dryly, "When you arrive in Cangzhou, help me bring a good one to your grandmother." ”

Lu Xingwan, who had been mentally prepared, listened to these cold and alienated words at this time, and she still felt a little uncontrollable sadness in her heart, she blessed her body slightly and responded lightly.

The other juniors were not there, and after the two elders confessed, this goodbye was over.

Surrounded by a group of maids-in-law, Wen Shu arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion with Lu Xing late, and there were a number of carts and horses parked outside the door, as well as several mules pulling things.

More than a dozen small servants were loading luggage into the car, and Lu Yuancheng took Lu Xi to command.

Hearing the footsteps, he turned his head, first glanced at Wen Shu, and then said to Lu Xingwan: "The things are almost loaded, and you can set off in a quarter of an hour, I have people lay soft cushions in the car, it shouldn't be too bumpy, if you are uncomfortable, stop and rest, and bring a good one for my grandmother in Cangzhou, let her take care of her body, and I will go to see her when I have time." ”

The same words, but when they came out of his brother's mouth, there was an indescribable warmth, Lu Xingwan nodded with a smile, and then turned around and told Lu Yuancheng to combine work and rest, don't just think about official business, busy with your body.

Lu Yuancheng nodded, personally sent Lu Xing the evening car, and then turned around and asked Wen Shu, "I haven't forgotten what I told you before, right?" ”

"I haven't forgotten, I remember everything."

Lu Yuancheng nodded with satisfaction, and then pulled a dark cyan sachet from his waist and handed it over: "There are some scattered silver here, about five taels, you take it with you, if there is an accident, you must take the evening to a safe place, in addition to life, honor is also very important, remember?" ”

"Remembered." For the first time, Wen Shu was not so happy to receive the money.

Lu Yuancheng seemed to feel it, paused for a moment and said, "You have to take care of yourself, you and Wan'er have to come back well." After speaking, he said uneasily: "Don't worry about those cars and horses at a critical moment, life is the most important, when you get to a safe place, find a way to have someone send me a letter, if the matter on my side ends quickly, I will rush over as soon as possible." ”

Listening to these slightly caring words, Wen Shu raised his head in surprise, as if he didn't know the person in front of him.

Lu Yuancheng saw that she was stunned and a little uncomfortable, so he immediately urged: "Okay, get in the car quickly, it's not too early." ”

"Oh." Wen Shu answered, stuffed the sachet into his waist, and then climbed into the carriage.

Lu Yuancheng watched her movements, helped her forehead with difficulty, and then turned her head out of sight, and told Lu Xi to prepare a horse, and he wanted to go to the office.

。。。。。。。。

"What did my brother just tell you?" In the shaking carriage, Lu Xingwan asked weakly.

Wen Shu tilted his head and smiled: "Lord Lu instructed me to protect the big girl and take care of the big girl. ”

Lu Xingwan shook his head helplessly, "Brother doesn't know what's wrong, this year is really long-winded, not only let you protect yourself, but also asked me to write a letter to him every evening, reporting where he went, living there, I haven't seen him like this in previous years." ”

Although there was a little complaint in her words, there was an obvious smile on her face, Wen Shu knew that she was not really complaining, but showing off, showing off her brother's concern for her, so she followed her words and said: "Lord Lu cares about the big girl, so he will always emphasize that there is no matter how big or small, and no matter how many people envy it, they can't envy it." ”

"But he's too long-winded." Lu Xingwan answered again, but the smile on his face became clearer.

seemed to open the topic, Lu Xingwan then asked Wen Shu how many people there were in the family, whether there were any brothers and sisters or anything like that.

Wen Shu said it truthfully, but he was afraid that Lu Xingwan would not like it, so he didn't directly say that her family ran a coffin shop, only that her father was a craftsman and knew some carpentry work.

Lu Xingwan heard that she had no brothers and sisters, and felt a little sorry for her, but then she felt admiration for the family relationship between her father and daughter, and her father who had not married a bride for more than ten years.

Thinking about her father, her mother has been gone for only a year, so she helped the Guan family right, and her heart was a little gloomy.

Lu Yuancheng didn't know when he was waiting there, and when he saw Lu Xing coming out late, he took a few steps forward with a smile,
