This time, Jiao Niang doesn't know if there is a chance to come back, it may be a lifetime. Many of these minions' families are here, like Chu Chan and Qing Huan, and many of them have reached the age of marriage, and Jiao Niang doesn't want to delay them.

As soon as Jiao Niang's words fell, Qing Huan knelt on the ground, "Qing Huan has followed the girl since she was a child, and Qing Huan will go wherever the girl goes." ”

Qiushuang knelt down after him, "The slave maid, like Qinghuan, also has to follow the girl." ”

Jiao Niang helped them up, shook their hands vigorously, and said movingly: "Okay." ”

Qiushuang glanced at Wu Dan, Wu Dan stepped forward with a smile and held his hand in Jiao Niang's hand, "What else can I say, when we married to the Rui Wangfu, we said that we would always be by the girl's side, if I don't go, it won't be unrighteous? ”

She, like Qiushuang, has no relatives and no reason, if you count it, the master is their family.

Qiushuang slapped her with a smile, "It really scared me to death, I thought you weren't going anywhere." ”

Several people looked at the first cicada again, and the first cicada looked at them hesitantly, "Slave maid...... The slave's mother is not in good health......"

If she goes, she must take her mother's with her, but in that place in Qianzhou, the mountains and rivers are far away, and she is afraid that her mother's body will not be able to hold on all the way.

Jiao Niang knew her troubles and said, "Your mother still needs you to take care of her, so you don't have to go with you." ”

The first cicada was grateful, crying and kneeling at the feet of the mother, "The master's great kindness to the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will never forget." In this life, the slave and maid can no longer continue to be loyal to the master, and in the next life, the slave and the maid will be loyal to you as a cow and a horse. As he spoke, he kowtowed on the ground three times.

Jiao Niang hurriedly asked Qing Huan to pick her up, and then said to everyone: "I never wanted to force you, now that the prince has been demoted to a commoner, I don't know what the future will be, you just want to go, I'm afraid you can't." While you still have some money, you can take it and leave here, and live a good life in the future, whether to go to another house, or go back to your hometown, or use the money to do some small business is a good choice. Follow us, maybe suffer, and the prince and I can't bear it. ”

The people who said these words wept bitterly, and some of the maids knelt down, saying that they could no longer serve the prince's side concubine, and left with the silver, and some stood up and insisted on following them to Qianzhou, especially a girl called Changshou, who didn't even want silver, and begged Jiao Niang to take her father and mother with her.

Two-thirds of them walked last, and a third followed them. Jiao Niang is still happy, after all, there are so many people who don't care about anything and are willing to follow them, and the master and servant can go to this point, and they are already content.

Jiao Niang let Chu Cicada leave last, and gave her a big purse, enough to have a few hundred taels of silver, she has done her best for her in the past few years, and these silver are considered rewards.

At first, the cicada still didn't accept it, but later Jiao Niang said that the money was used to treat her mother's illness, so she accepted it.

Afraid that the first cicada would have no work in the future, Jiao Niang also told her that she would arrange for her to go to Yongchang Bofu to do things, so that if they had the opportunity to come back in the future, it would be convenient for her to return to her to do things.

Jiao Niang was thoughtful in everything, and Chu Cicada was grateful, and said movingly: "After my mother is a hundred years later, if the master is still in Qianzhou, the slave will definitely go to you and be a slave for you." ”

Several sisters hugged each other and cried bitterly, and when it was dark, the first cicada reluctantly left the Ruiwang Mansion.

The heavy snow opened the way, the Hua Jintang family sent Jiao Niang outside the city, Brother An hugged Jiao Niang and was reluctant to let go, crying so much that his eyes were swollen into a slit, he began to cry last night, and has been crying until now.

"Brother An is old and sensible, my sister is not around, you have to take good care of yourself, listen to your father, and study hard. ”

Jiao Niang went to Qianzhou, the most reassuring thing is Brother An, fortunately now that the Ji family is abolished, Hua Meiniang is no longer there, and she no longer needs to worry about someone being unfavorable to Brother An as before.

Jiao Niang stroked An Ge'er's face, her eyes teary, "You have to be filial to your grandmother and father, do you know?"

Brother An cried so much that she sobbed, "Sister, don't go, I can't bear you, I will miss you very much, can you not go." ”

Jiao Niang sobbed a few times and comforted him: "Brother An'er, my sister is not coming back, when Brother Yuan is older, my sister will bring him back to see you, and then your little nephew will be older, will my sister bring your nephew back to play with you?"

"Not good, not good. Brother An tugged at Jiao Niang's clothes and didn't let go, "You lie to me, I know, you will never come back if you leave." I heard my father and grandmother talking. ”

Jiao Niang hugged An Ge'er into her arms, tears flowed down, she wanted to take him away at this moment, but if An Ge'er was taken away, he would have no future.

"Brother An'er, my sister promised you, my sister will definitely come back, and my sister and you will never be separated again. ”

Brother An raised his red face, "Really?"

Jiao Niang wiped his tears, smiled at him, and said, "When did my sister lie to you?"

The guards came to tell her that it was time to leave, Hua Jintang pulled An Ge'er back to his side, and while no one was paying attention, he stole a stack of silver tickets into Jiao Niang's hand while holding her hand.

"Father—"

"Take it, and don't let anyone see it. In just a few days, a layer of white appeared in Hua Jintang, and the lower eyelids were black, and it looked like I hadn't slept well for several nights.

Jiao Niang looked distressed, and now her father is worried, Jiao Niang burst into tears, couldn't hold back, and cried: "I'm sorry, Dad." ”

Hua Jintang burst into tears, "I'm sorry to say anything, my father didn't want you to go with me, but if you insist on doing this, my father can't say anything." When you get there, you have to write to your father frequently, and if you don't have enough money, tell your father. ”

As he spoke, tears flowed out uncontrollably, "You haven't suffered since you were a child, how are you going to survive your life?"

Jiao Niang cried: "Dad, don't be like this. ”

Ying Che hugged Jiao Niang, coaxed her not to cry, and said to Hua Jintang: "Father-in-law, don't worry, I will take good care of Jiao Niang and will not let her suffer at all." ”

Hua Jintang looked at Ying Che and nodded, "Then I will hand over Jiao Niang to you, you must take good care of her for me." ”

For so many years, the correct mode of getting along with each other between sons-in-law did not expect to be right at this moment.

Hua Jintang looked at the sky to stop his tears, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I still have to rest at the next post station before dawn." ”

Jiao Niang got into the carriage under Yingche's half-hug and half-embrace, and waited until she watched her family's figure gradually turn into a black spot, then she lowered the curtain and cried in Yingche's arms, crying, "Do we have a chance to come back?"

Ying Che slapped his palm on her back, was silent for a while, and said firmly: "Yes." ”
