Chapter 27: Departure

The cold wind and snow peeked through the crack in the door, squeezed in, and went out again. In the courtyard, in the strong wind, the snow flakes swirled and fell, like goose feathers scattered on the ground.

Bai Yiyun was silent for a long time, and finally agreed.

"As long as you're well, I'll agree with you." Bai Yiyun said, turned around, but said to the prince: "Otherwise, I will personally show the emperor and not allow you to go." ”

"Brother, you are so domineering. I'm married, and you're still in control of me. Yirong protested quietly, but closed her mouth when she met his majestic gaze.

"As long as you are in this world for a day, I will still be your big brother." Bai Yiyun said seriously.

The nurse nodded her head.

The prince smiled and asked the two to go outside to take a carriage, saying that the emperor ordered him to take people back to Xishan before dark, so that he could not delay time, and the emperor would also summon their brothers and sisters.

Bai Yiyun hurriedly asked the nurse to pack a lot of warm clothes, so as not to catch a cold. Among them, there is a new cluster of colored dae that was worn last year, and Yirong was wearing it at last year's Lantern Festival. Whenever she sees this big thing, Yirong can't help but feel sad. The nurse was afraid that she would be sad to see it, so she put it away.

After thinking about it, the nurse still chose to take it out. No matter what kind of sadness it is, it should always be faced, maybe after such a period of time, Yirong no longer cares about it.

There are some things that can't be solved by evasion, so you can only face them.

The nurse packed up her clothes and other belongings, packed them up, wrapped them in a piece of silk cloth, and carried them on her shoulders.

That's the luggage.

"Young Master, why didn't Wuqi follow you?"

Seeing that Bai Yiyun was empty-handed, and there was no one behind him, the nurse was concerned.

"Wuqi was sent to the tea house by me, and it is estimated that he will be back soon, so let the housekeeper inform him when the time comes, and let him take my clothes and some things to use for travel to Xishan."

Yirong said: "Big brother, let's go." ”

There was a lot of wind and snow outside, enough to block people's vision, and there were snowflakes between heaven and earth.

Yirong wore a hat, covered her face with a thick silk cloth, and had a rabbit fur collar around her neck, which also felt cold and biting, not to mention the other three who exposed their heads and faces.

But the prince was not too cold, stuffed his hands into his cuffs, and walked quickly with his head down.

Bai Yiyun gritted her teeth, held an umbrella, and protected her little sister's side, and Granny Lin fell behind, also holding an umbrella, wrapping a cloak, and holding a package in her arms.

Several people walked very fast, as if they were fleeing. After a cup of tea, everyone finally walked to the front of the house.

The shoes and boots stepped on the thin layer of snow, leaving a series of footprints, especially striking in the empty forecourt.

"Young master, young master—wait, young master!"

But at this moment, the butler chased after him from behind.

"Young master, why don't you say a word if you want to leave, there are only old slaves left in the Taishi's mansion."

The housekeeper was so anxious that he didn't even bother to take the umbrella, so he braved the cold to run in the snow.

Bai Yiyun patted Bai Sheng's shoulder and said, "The emperor sent someone to pick me up and Yirong to go to Xishan, the Taishi Mansion can only rely on you, but if there is anything important, you just have to go to Xishan, and it just so happens that my father is also there." ”

"Young master, madam, if you leave, there will be no one in the Taishi Mansion......"

"Don't get in the way, you just have to do your part, and remember, remember to go to Ci'an Temple to visit my grandmother for me, see what my grandmother lacks, whether her body and bones are still strong, just don't disturb her old man." Bai Yiyun instructed.

Bai Sheng was still not at ease after all, after all, there was a huge Taishi Mansion, and there were no two masters, he only hated the Bai family, and he didn't have any living relatives.

"Young Master, you go, I'm here in the Taishi Mansion." As he spoke, he patted his chest.

The family on duty in the gatehouse opened the gate of the Taishi's Mansion, and outside, two carriages were indeed prepared, which were specially made sedan chairs in the palace, which were generally rare, and only when the emperor traveled, people outside the palace could take a look.

The nurse helped Yirong into the sedan chair and followed herself, while Bai Yiyun sat in the back.

The prince rode his horse and followed.

It is very convenient to ride in the carriage, but it is inevitable that it will be bumpy and uncomfortable for people to sit on, but the carriage seats in the palace are covered with extremely thick soft cushions, and cotton is stuffed in them.

There was also a small stove inside, and the nurse lit it with a fire fold, and the stove burned, and soon the whole carriage was warm.

Xishan is far away on the outskirts of the city, and the road is a little far away, and the nurse also brought some snacks intimately, so as not to make Yirong hungry.

Because it was summoned by the emperor, the carriage went fast, and Yirong was a little uncomfortable.

The nurse took Yirong's hand and said, "Madam, it will be your birthday in a few days, the slave maid thought, it's not too late to leave after your birthday." ”

"Bother, nurse, in fact, I just want the family to spend every day happily and happily, my mother went early, only you have been by my side, carefully teach me, take care of me, I will remember the kindness of the nurse for the rest of my life."

When she was a child, Yirong was taken care of by the nurse with all her might, and it was not bad to say that she was half of the nurse's child. At the beginning, the nurse's child died unexpectedly early, and then she became attached to Yirong, and the nurse couldn't help but transfer her feelings for the child to Yirong. This is also human nature.

"Yirong." Lin Yun took her other hand, held it in her palm, and called her name, with indescribable tenderness in her eyes.

Yirong knew that the nurse must be missing her deceased child. That child's fate is too tragic, anyone will feel distressed, let alone Lin Yun, who is a mother.

"Alas...... If my husband had been fine, I would have been fine, and my child would not have died, my child's life is miserable, and he has just come out, and he ......." Lin Yun sighed and shook her head, tears dripping from her eyes.

"If I knew something would happen to my husband, I wouldn't let him go up the mountain anyway......"

"Nurse, I am also your child, I was raised by you, without you by my side, I don't know what I will become." Yirong Road.

These words are her sincere words, and she has always been grateful to the nurse.

"No, how can you be my child, my child is long dead...... Yirong, you are the daughter of the Taishi, I am just a slave, I am not worthy, I am not worthy of it for a lifetime, how can you be a slave's child......"

"Nurse, you have raised me for more than ten years, I should repay it, but I really don't know what I can do for you, you said that you want to go back to your hometown, I can only agree, you want a child, and I am willing to be your child."

Yirong pulled out the handkerchief and wiped the tears from the nurse's face.

"Child......" The nurse stared at her blankly.

"Yes, I'm your child."
