Seven days later, it is an auspicious day for the zodiac to travel, on this day, Ruyu and others took Xiao Liuzi and others to accompany Changxu Changyuan, follow the team of Master Qin to escort the imperial plaque, and return to the old house of the Zhu family. It was hard along the way, but Yulin opened the road and was too peaceful, and it was more than half a month to arrive, so Yuzi left more time to settle down his sons, and also raised a few days of high hall for Zhu Xun to do his filial piety.

After the arrival of the plaque of Master Qin, he had to perform the seven-day fasting ceremony on behalf of Zhu, and after wiping the plaque every day, he could offer the incense case, for the Zhu family ancestral hall, the Zhu family beat the gongs and drums to welcome happily, and it attracted the people of ten miles and eight villages to watch, on the day of the plaque ancestral hall, more lively want to celebrate the New Year, firecrackers sound gongs and drums are noisy, the Zhu family raises the whole family to bow, and feels the great grace of the son of heaven, and the local prefect and county also bring the officials below the state to come to the incense and bow to congratulate, the Zhu family is even more honorable, since then, The Zhu family has become a well-known family. After the ceremony of entering the ancestral hall on the plaque, Yulin Fang returned to Beijing to resume his life, and Mrs. Zhu placed wine in the Shili Pavilion to send it off, which was a heartfelt dedication. Not to mention.

In Xingxian County, Mrs. Ruyu is gone, Qingchan is in charge of family affairs alone, busy in addition to packing some bags for Xing'er, but also taking care of Changyuan, Qingchan is the most assured Xing'er, he is about to leave home at a young age, and he has to be harsh by his mother**, and he feels distressed when he thinks about it. In order to make Xing'er return to Guanlong's hometown and feel more at ease, Qingtan prepared a lot of things for Xing'er, everything she could eat, and even the dim sum that Xing'er usually likes to eat was specially ordered by going to the high-point shop, for fear that Xing'er would be wronged by her mother's family on the road.

Guan Longwan is the old lady is scheduled to send someone to pick up in early June, Zhu Xun deliberately looked at the yellow calendar, the sixth day of the sixth month of June is a good day, send his daughter to set off, but it happened that the sixth day of the first month is a rainy day, the clansmen who were ready to stop did not go long and retreated, it was really too rainy, Zhu Xun didn't care about this matter, only asked the family members to stop the rain and set off again, so it dragged on for a few days.

During this period, Feng's mother also went back to Qingxuan, and the young lady's travel was blocked, I am afraid that God will keep people, so it is better to plan for it, and keep the young lady for another year and a half, and then send Guan Long to Guan Long. But Qingyan is a person who doesn't believe in the yellow calendar, saying that the early delivery and late delivery are to be sent to Guan Long's house, it is better to send it early, the child is young and does not know how to wait for the clouds, the rain stopped, and the family members were urged to go on the road.

The second time she separated, Xing'er was even more reluctant, hugged her younger brother Changyuan and kissed her, and begged her mother to keep her for a few more days, but to no avail, she had to pout, got into the carriage and set off with the team.

Qingyan had already cried once before the Shili Pavilion send-off, but he was sad but not as good as the second send-off, and he cried into a tearful person, as if Xing'er was gone, and the maid persuaded him several times before he stopped. Zhu Xun stood aside with his beard and calmly seemed to be fine, watching the carriage go away, but when the carriage disappeared, two lines of tears could not be hidden.

Zhu Xun and Qingxuan sent their daughter home without mentioning it. Just talk about what happened after Xing'er left.

Mother Feng sat in the carriage with Xing'er in her arms, followed by Xing'er's little girl Xiaolian. Because it had only rained heavily, the roads in Xingxian County were muddy, and the carriage was bumpy and slow. Usually, the family is only ready-made in Xingxian County, but now when I come out to travel, I know that Xingxian County, which is under the supervision of Zhu Xun, is really not small, no wonder Mrs. Ruyu said that the promotion of county officials in Xingxian County is the fastest, and it is really not easy to lock it up.

"Mother-in-law, my mother said that we were going to Guan Long's house, where is Guan Long?" Xing'er looked up from Mother Feng's arms.

Xing'er's question also aroused Xiaolian's interest, and Xiaolian also sat on Granny Feng's lap, blinking her little eyes, waiting for Feng's mother to speak.

"Guan Long, in the northwest of the capital, under the jurisdiction of the Northern Zhili." Feng's mother expressed it simply.

"Then, Xingxian is close to the capital? Or go to the house of the old man Guan Long? Xing'er wanted to figure out everything she didn't know.

"Of course, the capital is closer, and we are going through the capital to the northwest this time."

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, I heard that the capital is where the emperor lives, right?" This time it's Xiaolian.

"Yes, our emperor lives in the capital today, and the capital is the capital of our Great Xia, the largest city in Great Xia, the most prosperous place, and your grandfather's house is in the capital." Mother Feng looked at Xing'er and said.

"Is it bigger than Xing County?" Xiaolian continued to ask.

"Of course, it's bigger than Xingxian, dozens of times bigger than Xingxian, kids."

"Mother-in-law, can we go to the capital for a walk when we pass through the capital? Also go to see Master Weng? Xing'er imagined the prosperity of the capital.

"Absolutely! But we can't stay too long, after all, we have to rush to Guanlong. Mother Feng hugged Xing'er tightly, freed her other hand, hugged Xiaolian, and shook her body to the rhythm of the carriage's bumps.

"When the time comes, mother-in-law, I will take you to visit the capital, see the prosperity of the capital, go to Master Weng's house to buy a bowl of wine and drink, and also take you to know your uncles and aunts, as well as brothers and sisters. Are you happy with Xing'er? Mother Feng shook her body and said kindly.

"Good! All right! Both children applauded.

The first day of departure was muddy but safe. In the evening, the convoy stayed at a post station on the irrigation road in Xingxian County, which was the last official road leading from Xingxian County to the capital.

The family went to knock on the door, and the guiding lanterns of the Zhu Mansion and Guan Longwan were instantly respectful. On the ground in Xingxian County, no one knows that Zhu, Weng, and Wan Qi are one family, and the family is handing over the two official plates, and Yicheng is even more courteous.

The one who came to Xingxian to pick up Xing'er was the second housekeeper of Wan Qi Mansion, who was dressed and dressed with some face, and he ate all the way, and the second housekeeper was very good at doing things to see the color, if there was no big housekeeper in Wan Qi Mansion, these two housekeepers would be promoted to the top spot as soon as possible.

There are four carriages in a group of people, the front one is the family and guards of Wan Qi's family, the second is Feng's mother with Xing'er, the third is Xing'er's soft luggage, food toys and other things are placed next to Xing'er, and the fourth is the carriage sent by the Zhu family. The second butler and Li Tou'er of the escort team, as well as three or two guards, rode high-headed horses, or led the way in front, or accompanied the escort team in front and back, these guards were all personally selected and sent by the old lady Wan Qi, which shows that the Wan Qi family attaches great importance to Xing'er.

During the day, a group of twenty or thirty people walked on the official road with horse-drawn carriages, and stayed at the post station at night, which also occupied half of the small Xingzhou Station. Yi Cheng gave the best room to Xing'er Feng's mother, and built a temporary bunk for Xiaolian. The others, except for the second housekeeper and Li Touer, who were in a separate room, and the rest slept in the Chase bunk. Li Touer also deliberately left the guards on duty in rotation.

In the next half a month, every day is like this, walking during the day, staying at the post station at night, and there are times when you can't touch the post station, you must stay in the inn, there is really nothing, and you have to find a temple to watch the night, during the day everyone is to eat dry food or fire on the spot, and eat some dry food snacks when it rains. Xiao Xing'er and Lian'er are children, they don't feel tired, they think it's an outing, Feng's mother can't hold on to her age a little, and she begins to get dizzy, although she is still considerate and thoughtful to take care of Xing'er, but she is still a little too busy to take care of herself. Fortunately, there is a little servant sent by the Zhu family to help take care of them before and after running, and Xing'er is also familiar with them, which is quite worry-free and effort-saving.

On this day, walking in the territory of Huaiyin, the sky was clear, at noon, everyone unloaded the car, as usual, the stove was still in place, Feng's mother was already dizzy, she found a cool place to sit, Xing'er and Xiaolian fell asleep in the car, and called again when eating.

Everyone was busy, and they were in full swing. It was a rumbling sound from nowhere, not loud at first, but getting closer and closer, and getting louder and louder.

"Not good! It's a flash flood! Let's run to the north slope of the mountain. Li Touer shouted.

Everyone quickly ran away, the coachman went to pull the carriage, and when he heard the rumbling sound approaching, he abandoned the carriage and ran with the team.

Li Tou'er heard Feng's mother shouting, saying that the young lady was still in the car, hurry up and ride back to find it, but it was too late, it was fast, the flash flood had already washed down the hillside, and the horses pulling the cart were also frightened, and fled in all directions, when Li Tou arrived, Xing'er's carriage was long gone, and the clinker torrent came quickly, and Li Touer had to urge the horse to leave quickly, which was a thunderous roar in the sky, dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down in an instant.

In the carriage, Xing'er and Xiaolian slept in a daze, suddenly the carriage was very bumpy, the two children woke up, after waking up, they heard a "click" thunderclap, and louder than the thunder was a huge rumbling sound, Xing'er opened the curtain and saw that there was a lot of water behind the carriage, chasing the carriage closely, Xing'er was startled, Xiaolian also saw the water behind the car, and then hid in a corner of the car in a panic and cried, shouting "The water is coming!" We are all going to die, Dad, Mother, I will die too......", it turned out that Xiaolian's parents died in the flash flood, Xiaolian saw her father and mother washed away by the flood, when she was going to send water to her father and mother who cultivated the land, the flash flood broke out in front of her. That's how I cry at this moment.

Xing'er moved over with difficulty, hugged Xiaolian, and comforted her not to be afraid, at first Xiaolian was still a little more settled, but suddenly, somehow, she suddenly broke away from Xing'er, grabbed the soft baggage, pulled something, stuffed it into her arms, and threw the rest to Xing'er. muttering "We have to be rich, we have to be rich...... so as not to be sold...... "Yunyun."

Then he turned back to Xing'er and shouted: "Miss, stuff the burden into your clothes......" Before she finished speaking, the carriage hit a big rock and turned upside down, Xiaolian didn't stand firm, fell by the door, knocked her head on the door frame and fainted, Xing'er was also upside down, at this time the horse was frightened, crazy escape, a brute force pulled the carriage, the wheels drove over the boulder, a wild upheaval, although Xiaolian was a year old, but in the end it was a child, weak, this reversal, Xiaolian turned out of the carriage along the door, Xing'er shouted Xiaolian's name, But to no avail, Xing'er leaned on the window to look at her, but saw Xiaolian fell out of the car and was run over by the wheels of her legs, Xiaolian struggled to get up in the heavy rain and mud, tried several times and didn't get up, in the heavy rain covered her vision, Xiaolian's figure gradually blurred, but the water and fire were ruthless, a flood had arrived, a wave had been patted, and Xiaolian was completely gone.

Xing'er was so frightened by this scene that she didn't even hear Lian'er's cry for help, and Xiao Lian'er was already swept away by the flood......
