Chapter 7: Returning Home
It was dark, there was no one around, and when they reached the vicinity of the cottage, the two horses were not in a hurry to go.
"Look at the capital, and then look at our family, why..."Yuzhen said.
"The family must be in a hurry, and the horse is tired..."Sister Ah pulled the spoon from her neck.
A loud whistle was heard, and an immediate response was received.
A small light from far and near.
"Two crazy girls can come back!"
"Aji, we're back with important information!" Sister said happily.
"Have you eaten, you must be hungry..."
"If you're hungry on the road, you'll not be hungry when you get home." Sister said.
The three of them walked on the stone road in the moonlight.
"How is the capital?"
"Okay, how can it be bad, it's good anywhere..."Sister Ah said.
Yuzhen thought of the palace again, whether the seventeen young people who let her go will be punished, hmph, those who are punished are also deserved.
The lights gradually intensified, and Yuzhen, Sister A and Ah Ji parted ways and led the horse home.
"Daddy... I'm back..."
"I still know that I will come back..."The light was lit at the door, and Dad just raised his head slightly, and the silverware in his hand did not stop.
Tie the horse to a post and remove the baggage.
"Grandma, I brought you the cake of osmanthus flowers from the capital..."Yuzhen entered the house, and there was obviously an atmosphere that was not right at home.
Rushing into the back room, my brother was lying on the bed.
"When I went to work today, I fell and I didn't get paid for a few days..."Grandma sat on the edge of the bed and said lightly.
"Brother... You taste the osmanthus cake I brought from the capital, it's sweet..."Yuzhen threw herself to the side of the bed and opened the paper package.
"You sneaked away to the capital, how much is this pastry, why are you so worry-free..."Grandma sighed repeatedly.
Yuzhen took out the silver from his arms, "There are many nobles in the capital, and you can get a few bucks for begging..."
"Hey! You are..."
"Luckily, someone took a fancy to my longevity lock, so they paid for it."
Grandma took the silver with both hands, and her sad face showed a joy or two.
"Ah Zhen, you can also sell mine, you can't protect me with it, it's better to exchange it for some money." Brother took out the longevity lock from under the pillow.
"The palace has been built, and it is still decorated with colorful stones, and the people's power is excessively requisitioned, I wish that the nobles in the capital are all dead, and who rarely goes to the capital!"
"Your dad is still trading silverware at night just to make more money, if you can exchange it, take it for it!" Grandma said.
Yuzhen took the longevity lock angrily, turned around and ran back to the attic, sat in front of the window and looked at her face in the mirror, no one noticed that her face was so blue, and the sound of Daddy banging on the silverware downstairs was particularly clear.
"I can't make money if I work with lights at night, and I can't make money if I burn my eyes, and I don't care about anything else except money, except for my life! It's better to die on a day like this..."Yuzhen untied his turban.
A distant whistle came, and Yuzhen immediately ran down from the attic.
"Where are you going when you just came back, don't come back outside all day long!" Daddy scolded behind his back.
A black shadow, Yuzhen flew over and hugged him, "People almost can't come back, and they died in the capital as a ghost..."
"After eating the leopard's guts, dare to run to the capital!"
"You're going to the mountains to mine broken stones, and you can't accompany me..."
The two let go, and a big hand gently stroked Yuzhen's face, "You were beaten, who is it, I'll go to him for revenge!" ”
"Revenge? You can't even find the door! Yuzhen held Lin Feng's hand.
"I see that the big mansion of the palace is full of lights and lively, so I want to find an unguarded wall to take a look, who knows that the head was pulled down by the people inside as soon as it was exposed, I said it was an assassin who broke into the palace."
"Oh my God... You! ”
"That day happened to be the birthday of the little princess, and the concubine in the palace was also there! It's the little county lord who shouldn't have been born, and our colorful village just fell into this field! ”
