Chapter 222: Three Years Later

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is another three years.

In the Yu family's house in Fucheng, Mingyue watched the six-year-old Brother An'er paint red, while taking care of Lele and Brother Yan, who were sleeping lazily in Zhengmeimei.

Brother Yan is the second son of her and Yu Jiayan who gave birth to more than two years ago, the little guy is a heartless character, and he eats and sleeps every day to have fun.

Although he is a two-year-old child, eating, sleeping, and playing cannot be called a fault, but the problem is that this little guy is naughty himself, and he always has to be accompanied by his brothers and sisters.

Brother An is very like an older brother, and he has always been patient and gentle with his younger brothers and sisters, so since Brother Yan can say that he can leave, Brother An has moved the study time to after his brother falls asleep.

Because only in this way can he learn to play at the same time.

Yu Jiayan and Mingyue feel most sorry for their eldest son, every time they see his little person putting on the demeanor of an eldest brother to take care of his younger brothers and sisters, Yu Jiayan and his family can't help but feel sorry for this child.

"Master, Mrs. Gu asked someone to send you a post, saying that she wants to come to our house as a guest tomorrow."

Seeing that Brother An finished writing today's big characters, it was already the winter solstice of the child's mother, so she whispered to Mingyue about the trivial matters at home.

Mingyue stretched out her hand to take the post handed by Dong Solstice, and looked at it twice before instructing Dong Solstice again, "Go and let Xiaoxue prepare the snacks that several young ladies of the Gu family love to eat, and Mrs. Gu is going to bring them over tomorrow." ”

Dong Solstice smiled, "The slave has already instructed Xiaoxue." Tomorrow's banquet, Xiaoxue has also drawn up a preliminary list, and please take a look. ”

Mingyue took the list and looked at it a few times, and then reached out and took Brother An'er's brush, "This chicken stewed mushroom is changed to fried chicken with cumin, crispy chicken and rice flower, tofu stewed fish is changed to sauerkraut fish, and then add a piece of honey roasted pork ribs, a piece of osmanthus glutinous rice lotus, and a stewed elbow with rock sugar." The staple food is steamed dumplings, bacon and sausage steamed rice, and the dim sum can be taken directly to our newly opened dim sum shop, and let Sister-in-law Shen prepare a box of jujube paste yam cake, a box of red bean mille-feuille cake, a box of hibiscus cake, a box of mung bean cake, a box of hawthorn cake, and a box of honey three knives. ”

The winter solstice was written down one by one, and then he took the account book of the dim sum shop and gave it to Mingyue, "This is sent by the shopkeeper Pan of Fuxing County, and Kang Ping will immediately send it to the backyard for you as soon as he gets it." ”

Mingyue nodded, "Let's put it on the table first, and let Xiaoxue come over to help me check the accounts after dinner." ”

The winter solstice took the order and left, Mingyue rubbed the head of An Ge'er, who was quietly listening to her handling of family affairs, "Is An Ge'er hungry?" Would you like a snack? ”

Brother An shook her head, and explained to Mingyue with a milky voice on her little face, "There is still half an hour to have dinner, Sister Xiaoxue said that she will make sweet and sour tenderloin and braised lion's head for me in the evening." ”

Mingyue couldn't help laughing, "Is it okay for the mother to let someone pour you a glass of water?" ”

Brother An'er nodded solemnly, "Okay, thank you." ”

Bai Lu, the little maid who was waiting for the summons outside, had already heard the conversation between the mother and son, and before Mingyue could tell her, she had already poured a glass of warm water and sent it into the house.

Brother An said "Thank you, Sister Bailu" in a milky voice, and then took a small sip of water from the cup.

Mingyue touched her son's head, but she was thinking about Yu Jiayan and the brothers of the Ming family who entered Beijing again to take the exam.

Three years ago, Yu Jiayan, Ming Xu, and Erlang were off the list, but San Lang made a name for himself in the exam, so the Ming family who went to Beijing to take the exam this time suddenly became three.

Like three years ago, Mingyue still hired a dart master to accompany her relatives to Beijing early in the morning, plus other lifters including Gu Chenghui who wanted to go with the Ming family and the Yu family, as well as the small guys and accompanying relatives around these lifters, their team finally developed into a super long team of more than fifty people.

Mingyue followed the Ming family to the Shili Pavilion outside the city this time, and when she saw that the team had developed into such a scale, she hurriedly asked the four little guys who were familiar with fists and feet in the family to follow them to the capital.

These four little guys were specially cultivated by them after Yu Jiayan fell off the list, so that Yu Jiayan could go far away in the future, and there would be credible and high-value little guys around him to serve.

There are also the other four little guys of the Yu family and the ten little guys of the Ming family who are learning martial arts with these four little guys, and in the past three years, their skills have been small, and ordinary big men who have not deliberately practiced can easily be three to five alone.

Originally, Yu Jiayan was going to bring two of these little guys this time, after all, Mingyue had already entrusted Jin Shiping in advance to help hire ten dart masters.

But after seeing this mighty team of people, Yu Jiayan finally acquiesced to Mingyue's practice of bringing a few more personal bodyguards to him, Mingcheng and the three brothers of the Ming family.

Anyway, just like Mingyue said, the Ming family is in Fucheng, and she will never be left unattended.

Mingdi, who was one step slower than her, also stuffed the two martial arts servants brought by his family into the team in Shangjing, and as for the other two, he was going to send them to the Yu family for the time being, so that they could cooperate with the Yu family's subordinates to protect Mingyue's mother and son.

As for what the six little guys who temporarily joined the team ate and weared, Yu Jiayan and the Ming family all brought enough silver money with them, as long as the silver was enough, it was just a matter of raising hands to solve the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the little guys.

The only thing they have to do now is what kind of inn and what kind of restaurant they want to eat along the way.

After all, everyone's family background is different, and they think that inns and restaurants that are affordable and inexpensive, and those who enter Beijing with them are likely to be either too expensive or too poor because of their economic situation.

What's more, the means of transportation of their group are also different.

The Ming family and the Yu family all chose big green mules with good teeth and extremely strong bodies, whether they rode mules directly or pulled carts with mules, these mules would never drag these two families down.

And the big cars they chose are all sturdy and durable, but they look extremely ordinary on the surface, which can be described as inconspicuous.

As for the other people who went to Beijing with them, in addition to the few who also rode their own mule carts, there were also people who sat in extremely fashionable luxury carriages, some hired mule carts from the city car dealership, some people rode small donkeys with dull coats, and some people simply told Yu Jiayan or the brothers of the Ming family that they wanted to sit on their mule carts.

It doesn't matter if you have your own cart, hire a cart, or rub their mule cart, but this donkey... The donkeys don't run very fast, and they don't run too long, and it's not easy for them to keep up with the team on donkeys.

Besides, when they set off, it was just when the autumn wind was rising, and if these people were tired from sunburning, it would not be the people who traveled with them who were in trouble in the end.
