Zhou Huan didn't use lunch at noon that day, she went to the old lady of Fuluyuan, and when she came back, she locked herself in the room, and was called out by Zhenzhen when she had dinner.

"Miss......"

Zhenzhen looked at her and stopped, and the two maids knew about those things.

"It's okay, let's set the table."

Zhou Huan has calmed down, he is still a little hungry without anything at noon, and he has used an extra bowl of rice.

When the two maids saw her calm appearance, they thought that this person had accepted it, so they silently shut up and didn't talk again.

That night, Zhenzhen made the bed and was about to wait for the master to rest, when he heard the man at the dresser, "Tomorrow, I want to go out." ”

"Miss, where do you want to go?"

Zhou Huan didn't answer her, but continued, "You can't let the people in the main courtyard know about this, it's best to travel in disguise." ”

She will not marry into the Zhu family, the old lady can no longer count on it, and now she can only rely on herself.

"Miss, what do you want to go out and do?"

When I heard that I had to disguise myself, my heart was raised.

"I'm going to send a letter to my father, before the letter from the Zhou Mansion."

's mother died early, but no matter what, my father is there, and it is impossible for my family affairs to not even squeak.

And for such a big event as a daughter's marriage, the father will definitely come back.

I'm afraid that I will only come back to participate in the marriage ceremony, and the silver sent in by the Zhu Mansion has already been spent, and there will be no other way than to agree.

Zhou Huan wants to express her meaning clearly before it happens, and at the same time hopes that her father, who has not seen her for a few years, has not forgotten her, because now that is her only reliance.

The next day, Zhenzhen went to the housekeeper and got a door number to go out, and when he came back, he stopped by the big kitchen.

Zhou Huan got up early and asked Liu Er to go to the old lady's side and say goodbye, saying that he was unwell, so he wouldn't go to ask for peace today.

The old lady heard that she was not feeling well, and she tasted some tonics.

Liu Er took those things back, and happened to meet Zhenzhen at the gate of the courtyard.

The two exchanged glances and silently went to the room.

The courtyard where Zhou Huan lives is in the corner, and there are not many people inside, except for the two personal maids in the room, the outer courtyard is a mother-in-law and two little girls sweeping the floor.

Zhenzhen and Liu Er returned to the room, one stayed in the outer room, and the other entered the inner room.

"Miss, I've got the sign."

Zhenzhen took out two door signs from her arms, one was received by her, and the other was bought by the kitchen lady for money.

"Alright, you go get something to eat, and we'll leave in a moment."

Zhou Huan has changed into the thick green jacket worn by the little maid, and the bun is also the ingots that the maids often comb, she cut her heavy forehead hair to cover her eyes, put on an old gray cloak, and then covered her mouth with her hands and pretended to cough, not particularly familiar people, will not recognize her.

I'm really scared, but the master can't help her, so she can only cheer up.

After a while, Zhou Huan carried a small burden and went to the back door of the courtyard with Zhenzhen.

The two little maids who were cleaning at the back door had already been taken away by Liu Er, and the two went out smoothly and went around half a circle to the backyard gatehouse where the next person went out.

There was a doorman at the door, and when she heard that she was going out to see a doctor, she opened the door after receiving the sign of the two of them.

Zhou Huan hung his head and covered his mouth the whole time, and only put down the embroidered handkerchief when he left Sheung Shui Lane.

"Miss, where are we going now?"

Zhenzhen kept holding her, and her hands were shaking.

"Find a carriage and go to the trading house first."

"Oh."

The two went to the street corner, really chartered a car, and said that they were going to the trading house, but there was no location for the body, so they asked the coachman to pick the nearest commercial house and look at it later.

The trading houses were all in a relatively open place on the edge of the city, not close to this side at all, and the two sides negotiated the price and left quickly.

Zhou Huan felt that the travel plan was smooth, and he didn't want the carriage to just leave, and there was a vegetable vendor at the corner of the street who didn't want the vegetable basket, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

The carriage outside is definitely not as good as in the house, Zhou Huan sat on a hard wooden bench, and asked Zhenzhen to help her pull her hair in a new bun, covering her eyes uncomfortably.

The carriage walked for nearly half an hour before coming to the commercial street in Xicheng, Zhou Huan opened the curtain and looked at it, asked the coachman to stop, and went down with Zhenzhen.

This is a gathering place for caravans, and the streets are full of packed goods and hard laborers carrying sacks, and the sudden appearance of two girls has attracted the attention of many men.

Zhenzhen was a little scared when he saw this situation, so he hurriedly took his master to the nearest trading house to inquire, and went back to complete the matter as soon as possible.

It is also common for caravans to help people bring letters, but now that the New Year is approaching, many caravans have returned home for the New Year, and Zhou Huan asked several caravans that did not go there.

"Shopkeeper, do you have anyone who specializes in helping to deliver letters? It would be nice to add a little more money. ”

went out on a trip to Zhou Huan and brought all the family with him, and he had to send the letter out no matter what.

"Girl, you don't understand the outside world. There is nothing in the towns and villages, and if you go to the barren mountains and mountains and do not follow the convoy, you may encounter robbers, and if you dare to travel, if you are really in a hurry, it is better to go to the dart bureau to see, as long as you can afford the silver, those people are fine. ”

Everything is unpredictable, I didn't expect it to be so unpleasant.

Zhou Huan thanked him, turned his head and asked Zhenzhen to find a carriage to send them to the dart game.

There were many carriages in the caravan gathering place, and Zhenzhen quickly negotiated the price with someone, and the other party heard that they were looking for a dart board, and enthusiastically offered to introduce her to a place.

"Where's the dart game you're talking about?"

Zhou Huan looked the coachman up and down, this person was dressed in a gray shirt and wore a hat on his head, but his face was ordinary, but it gave her a not very good feeling.

"Girl, we are familiar with these sports cars, if you want to get closer, there is one on Mapo Street not far away. The larger one is the North Gate Street at the foot of the Imperial City, where there is a famous family of mighty and famous. ”

Zhou Huanyin heard about it slightly, and when he heard that it was on Beimen Street, he said, "If you don't want to get close, go to Weiwuxing." ”

Mapo Street is too remote, and she is always uneasy with nearly 100 taels of silver. There are a lot of people on Beimen Street, close to the palace, and there are patrols on weekdays, which makes people feel more at ease.

"Okay, two girls, please get in the car."

The coachman pulled the reins and pressed his hat to the bottom.

The carriage soon turned out of the street, Zhou Huan got in the car and sat by the window and looked out, at first the car was in the direction of returning to the city, but after a while she found that it had been rerouted.

"Hey, coachman, where are you going?"

Zhou Huan patted the car wall in front of him, and he was a little panicked when he really heard that something was wrong.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"It's not the right route."

Zhou Huan felt that he might have encountered a robber.

"Two girls, this road is close, and you can save a lot of time by walking this one."

The coachman in front replied casually, but he raised his whip in his hand and let the horse run.

"We don't want any shortcuts, stop."
