Chapter 225: Leaving Maple City

When Xue Sanniang was drunk, she told Nalan Jin everything she had experienced over the years, and also poured out the bitter water that she had been buried in her heart all these years.

Lin Xiucai listened to the distressed protection of Xue Sanniang and comforted her, and Nalan Jin also persuaded her.

This is the first time Nalan Jin has seen her fragile side since she met Xue Sanniang, and the first time she has seen her weak side as a woman.

"Sanniang, you drank too much, don't drink anymore." Nalan Jin felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly persuaded her.

"It's okay, my mother is not drunk in a thousand glasses, this amount of alcohol is a piece of cake for me." Xue Sanniang spoke as if she was biting her tongue.

"Sanniang, you really drank too much, what do you have to say tomorrow." Nalan Jin gave Lin Xiucai a look and asked him to take her to rest.

Lin Xiucai helped Xue Sanniang to stand up, and saw Xue Sanniang fall crookedly, and what was in his hand was also thrown to the ground and turned into pieces.

"What are you doing in a daze, hold it quickly." Nalan Jin glared at Lin Xiucai.

Lin Xiucai hesitated and thought for a long time before carrying Xue Sanniang back to the house. Xue Sanniang's mouth full of wine filled Lin Xiucai's face, and it was a little difficult to breathe.

This is when Xue Sanniang is sober. It is estimated that Lin Xiucai will be beaten again.

He sent Xue Sanniang back to the house to settle down, and stayed by the bedside for most of the day to confirm that she was okay before covering her with a quilt and leaving.

Since then, Xue Sanniang seems to have changed as a person, still so spicy, but it is not good to be gentle with Lin Xiucai.

The four of them lived in harmony and worked together to crack down on the inn's business, sometimes Xue Sanniang was irritable, and she would also take Lin Xiucai out of anger, but she was not as domineering as before.

When the two of them occasionally had nothing to do, they sprinkled a handful of dog food in front of Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi, which made Nalan Jin jealous and envious of the relationship between them.

At the same time, I wish them a happy ending.

Time flies really fast, I don't pay attention to taking care of the inn every day, and half a year has passed.

Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi have been gone for more than half a year unknowingly, except for the letters exchanged, Nalan Zhen has nothing to do with their current situation.

Even if everything is said to be safe, it is only good news and not bad news.

"Come, your letters." The man at the post station knocked on the counter and said in a cold voice.

The people at the post station have always been hostile to them because of the fact that Dongfang Yi opened the express station.

"Where's the letter?" Lin Xiucai was a little curious.

"How do I know, the letter is in your hands anyway, and I still have to leave beforehand." The people at the post station glanced at Lin Xiucai.

Lin Xiucai took the letter and read it for a long time, it said that Nalan Jin opened it personally, and he was embarrassed to open it.

"Who just came?" Xue Sanniang heard a voice talking outside.

"The man from the post station sent a letter." Lin Xiucai pointed to the letter and said.

"Letter?" Xue Sanniang was a little curious, "It was all the express station to deliver letters before, how could it be a post this time."

Standing, it's a little weird. ”

Xue Sanniang looked at Lin Xiucai, and he also shrugged his shoulders in confusion. The letter was sandwiched into the ledger and put aside, and it wasn't until the evening that Nalan Jin remembered that someone at the express station had delivered a letter.

"A letter was sent from the post station today, indicating that it was for you, what about Xiucai's letter?" Xue Sanniang looked at Lin Xiucai.

Lin Xiucai echoed for a long time, found the letter from the account book and gave it to Nalan Jin. She was also curious, Xiaomi opened a post station, and the suggestions exchanged would no longer use the post station, how could there be a letter from the post station.

Nalan Jin opened the envelope and looked at it, and instantly the whole person's face turned pale, and he looked at Dongfang Yi in horror.

"Grandpa is seriously ill, Dongfang, what should I do? I'm going back. Nalan Jin sobbed.

"Don't worry, isn't it wrong, didn't grandpa's letter always say that he was in good health? How could he suddenly become seriously ill, he must have seen it wrong. Dongfang Yi hugged Nalan Jin to comfort him.

Xue Sanniangye felt that the matter was a bit serious, took the letter and looked at it, and nodded at Dongfang Yi, it was true.

Dongfang Yi frowned.

"No, grandpa's use of the post station, there will be no mistake, grandpa, I want to go back, Dongfang, take me back, I want to see grandpa." Nalan Jin cried and begged Dongfang Yi.

"Don't get excited. It's so late, we'll be back early tomorrow morning, don't worry. Dongfang Yi hugged Nalan Jin, who was already crying, comforted.

Seeing Nalan Jin crying into tears, Xue Sanniang was also a little sad, looking at Lin Xiucai with hazy eyes, he just smiled and gave her an affirmative look.

Hearing such bad news, everyone had no heart to eat, and they did not know how to speak, so they had to go back to their own rooms.

Dongfang Yi was worried about Nalan Jin's body, no matter what method he used to trick her into eating, it would be in vain.

Nalan Jin sat at the head of the bed in a daze, crying non-stop, echoing the bits and pieces between Nalan Zhen and her over the years. Although he was in Fengcheng, his heart had already flown to Nalan Mansion.

It wasn't until her crying eyes were red and swollen and she was tired of crying that Nalan Jin fell asleep in Dongfang Yi's arms. But in his unsteady sleep, he still shouted Nalan Zhen's name.

Dongfang Yi put Nalan Jin down and let her sleep. He buried himself in the case and dealt with the affairs of the inn and the express station. After arranging the rest of the matter, I made an agreement.

Tell the inn and the express station to Xue Sanniang and Chu Shan to take care of.

In a hurry, things can only be arranged in a hurry.

Nalan Jin got up early and saw Dongfang Yi lying on the desk and falling asleep. As soon as he walked over and wanted to cover him with a quilt, he woke up Dongfang Yi.

"Why don't you go to bed and sleep, it's easy to catch a cold here." Nalan Jin whispered.

"I was dealing with some things last night and fell asleep here before I knew it." Dongfang Yi got up and stretched.

"I'm so busy that I forget to sleep." Nalan Jin looked curiously at what Dongfang Yi was looking at.

"Aren't you going to go back to see Grandpa? I just thought about the inn and the courier station

Let's sort it out, this is our hard-earned family business, and we can't let it go to waste. Dongfang Yi looked up a little reluctantly.

"It's all my fault, otherwise we wouldn't have to throw away the courier station we worked so hard to build." Nalan Jin twitched the corners of her mouth sadly, trying to make a smile.

"Needless to say, we are one, and my grandfather is not thin on me. He is in poor health, and we should go back, as long as we have the brains, we can make a comeback in another place. Dongfang Yi patted Nalan Jin's hand to comfort her.

After the two of them discussed, they simply explained the business of the inn and the express station to Xue Sanniang, and hastily packed up their things and left.

"Leaving so suddenly, this inn was opened by you, isn't it a bit inappropriate to suddenly hand it over to me now?" Xue Sanniang was a little at a loss.

"Leave it to you and Xiucai, and I can leave with Jin'er without worries." Dongfang Yi indifferently glanced up at the inn.

"Since you trust, I will not let you down, when you come back, we will operate together." Xue Sanniang is quick to talk.

"Okay."

Dongfang Yi also readily agreed, Xue Sanniang and Lin Xiucai kept sending them out of the city. When parting, Xue Sanniang and Nalan Jin looked at each other reluctantly.

"Sanniang, take care, remember to write to me." Nalan Jin hugged Xue Sanniang.

"You too, take care of yourself, you must come back when you have time." Xue Sanniang's eyes moistened for the first time.

The two of them reluctantly instructed each other, comforted each other, held hands and couldn't bear to let go, sent them back and forth and walked out for a few miles, and finally Dongfang Yi dragged them away.

It wasn't until she couldn't see the backs of Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi that Xue Sanniang put away her reluctance and prepared to go back.

"You seem to have become a lot sadter and more feminine." Lin Xiucai tilted his head and looked at Xue Sanniang.

Xue Sanniang turned his head and glared at Lin Xiucai, he suddenly felt that the wind was coming, and before he could run away, he was caught by Xue Sanniang.

"Ah, let go, it hurts, why are you hitting people again, there is no femininity at all." Lin Xiucai shouted to the sky.

"I dare to arrange the old lady, a duplicitous man, just now I said that the old lady is feminine, but this time there is no femininity, look at how to clean you up." Xue Sanniang wiped the corners of her eyes and dragged Lin Xiu back to the inn.

Along the way, I only heard Lin Xiucai constantly calling for help, and the people on both sides of the road wanted to come up and stop it when they saw such a scene, but when they saw that it was Xue Sanniang, they all retreated.

Dongfang Yi left Fengcheng with Nalan Jin and walked all the way to a small tea stall.

"Sit down and have a cup of tea, and find a caravan with them, and with them is a little faster than our foot strength." Dongfang Yi pointed to the camel team in front of him and said.

"Yes...... What if you run into a caravan of unscrupulous traders or horse thieves in the guise of a caravan? I'm worried that my grandfather's body can't go wrong on the road. Nalan Jin's first reaction when he saw the caravan was a horse thief.

"Have you forgotten? Most of the horses around here

The thieves were all sent to the express station by us, and even if there were, there were very few of them, but they didn't look like horse thieves. Dongfang Yi touched Nalan Jin's head.

Nalan Jin let out a long sigh, feeling that he was really suspicious and worried.

The two of them stopped at the tea stall for a while, ordered a pot of tea by the way, and listened to the businessmen at the table next to them discussing going to the Central Plains, so they wondered if they could get a ride over and get a ride.

"Excuse me, are you going to the Central Plains?" Dongfang Yi bent down politely.

"Yes, we're going to do business." The merchant also returned the salute politely.

"We have an urgent matter to rush back to the Central Plains, can we take your camel team to carry us for a distance?" Dongfang Yi has 100 million Nalan Jin after his birth.

The merchants looked at each other, and they were also worried that Dongfang Yi was a horse thief in disguise. looked at Nalan Jin for a long time, and finally agreed to take them.

"Yes, but we're going to take a detour to Tongcheng first, and if you don't get to me, let's go on the road together." The merchant said, pointing to the two camels behind him.

Dongfang Yi only took the merchant's camel caravan in a hurry, and now it seems that the distance with them is about the same.
