Chapter 371: The Road Ahead

In front of a house in Jintan County, the long-closed courtyard door suddenly opened, and an old man and a young man came out of it.

The two of them rode a black mule, and their expressions were quite pleasant.

Chen Daoren turned his head to look at the open door and threw a lock to Yu Xia.

"You go and lock the courtyard door."

Yu Xia slowly climbed down from the mule and locked the courtyard door honestly.

"Let's go, let's get out of the city early in the morning!"

Yu Xia got on the mule and followed behind Chen Daoren, walked out of a distance, and subconsciously looked back behind him.

Next to the house was a very tall courtyard wall, revealing the branches of the trees inside.

Unlike other trees, which only faintly sprout new shoots, that tree has already been full of greenery and is very luxuriant.

Such trees are rare in Jintan County.

Yu Xia glanced at the tree and felt a little familiar.

"Master, your house is adjacent to the courtyard wall behind the Heyi Tower?"

Chen Daoren didn't reply, only shouted loudly, "Hurry up, follow up!" Hurry away while there are few people, it's too embarrassing to ride such a thing! ”

Yu Xia smiled, knowing that Chen Daoren was taking care of himself who was temporarily unable to call on cultivation, he touched the carrier pigeon on his shoulder, waved his small whip lightly, and chased after him quickly.

"It's so lively over there, why don't you send it off?"

Coming out of the county seat is the official road to various places.

Chen Daoren and Yu Xia were on a small hill, parked by a tree, and watched a convoy pass on another official road to the capital not far away, with well-equipped and neat royal guards on the side, and many people followed on foot.

This meeting is much bigger than when Chu Wen left office.

Hearing Chen Daoren's question, Yu Xia shook his head.

"No, I won't. Parting is the most bitter, why bother to make people sad in vain. Besides, with such a large convoy, how can it be said to stop. ”

Chen Daoren glanced at the newly green mountains and forests, and subconsciously rolled his eyes when he heard Yu Xia's answer.

"She is the most noble in the whole convoy, she said that she wants to stop, and others dare to have opinions?"

"She must be eager to see you again, right? You know she's leaving, but you don't show up, which makes it even more sad. ”

Yu Xia was silent.

Of course, she didn't dare to see Yun Nianchu.

Because she is now suffering from the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, her realm has regressed, and her condition is not good, just appearing in front of Yun Nianchu, seeing her like this, with Yun Nianchu's intelligence, she will definitely be able to guess what happened.

Wouldn't that be more reassuring?

Seeing that Yu Xia didn't speak, Chen Daoren also guessed a little reason, sighed secretly, and lightly whipped the mule with a small whip, and the mule opened its legs and walked in the other direction.

"Okay, since you don't send it, don't look at it, let's go, accompany the old Taoist and I will find a Taoist temple, let's finish the apprenticeship ceremony."

Yu Xia immediately asked the mule to turn around and follow him, as if remembering something, and whistled into the mountains and forests.

A grey fluttering shadow fluttered its wings and flew out and landed on her shoulder.

Two mules, two people, and a carrier pigeon, walked slowly and slowly, and looked extraordinarily light, very different from the mighty convoy on the other road.

The carriage in the middle of the convoy suddenly lifted the curtain from within, and a moment later the curtain fell silently again.

……

There was a lot of noise in the west of Guoshu Village, and many people gathered to see the excitement.

"Run! Yu Daquan actually left his daughter-in-law who had just had a miscarriage and ran away with her father and mother overnight! ”

The steward Wang of Heng Gambling House stood in the courtyard with a few strong men, listening to the bitter crying and wailing of the Miao family in the house, and he couldn't believe the facts in front of him.

How could someone completely ignore their daughter-in-law and children, cheat their relatives out of their money, and run away with oil on the soles of their feet?

After all, Miao's had just had a miscarriage, and no matter how dark the king's heart was, he didn't want to get along with such a poor woman. After glancing at the worthless things in the yard, he waved his hand to a few strong men.

"Let's go."

A few strong men couldn't believe it.

"Just spare her so easily? If the contents of this house are taken out and sold, they will be worth a hundred or ten taels of silver. ”

Steward Wang shook his head, "These chickens will be left for her to make up for her body, she is a woman's family, and it is not easy to encounter such a thing, whether her mother's family is willing to take care of her is a matter of two words." The contents of this house are left to her, and they are not worth much, but they may be able to save her life. ”

A few strong men spat on the ground hatefully, scolding Yu Daquan's family of three for not being a thing, and finally left happily.

In the newly built brick house in the east of the village, Yu Chun came in from outside, closed the courtyard door, and entered the house happily.

"Mother, grandpa's uncle's family ran away!"

Yang Cuilian was stunned for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared on her face, "Really? ”

Yu Chun nodded heavily, "Really! And yesterday my grandfather just borrowed money from many uncles in the clan, but the three of them left their aunt and ran away overnight that night! ”

"What a sin!" Yang Cuilian couldn't help but scold.

"We don't care what they do, anyway, we don't have to worry about their family hurting us behind their backs! In my heart, I have never been more happy than ever! ”

Yu Chun laughed and couldn't help but turn in a circle.

Yang Cuilian couldn't help but smile when she looked at her, but suddenly restrained her smile.

"It's time to go, it's finally gone. But what shouldn't have gone, but also gone......"

The smile on Yu Chun's face disappeared in an instant.

She walked up to Yang Cuilian, took Yang Cuilian's hand, and looked at Yang Cuilian seriously, "Mother, I believe that the second sister will come back." ”

"Really?"

"Really!"

Yu Chun nodded heavily.

"That's good," Yang Cuilian's face resurfaced with a smile, "Then we must live a good life so that we can welcome the second girl back!" ”

……

In February of this year, the smell of firecrackers during the Spring Festival did not seem to have dissipated, people were still immersed in the joy of the New Year's reunion and looking forward to the future, the lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival were still hanging on the side of the street and swaying in the wind, Yu Xia left Jiangnan with Chen Daoren, and at the same time, Yun Nianchu went to the capital under the escort of the personal guards belonging to the royal family.

In the Jinshidi Clan Study, He Sui was listening carefully to the master's lecture, when suddenly a note flew in and hit him.

He Sui picked up the note and threw it aside, glanced at the empty seat next to him, and twisted his head back.

Yu Lang, who was a few seats away, saw that he didn't look at him at all, and he didn't even glance at the note, and pouted unhappily.

He had already applied to his master, and he would sit in the empty seat at the beginning of the next lesson, and scare to death the guy who ignored him.

Thinking of this, Yu Lang propped his chin and became sad again.

The little girl who would help him talk when he was bullied by He Sui is gone.

At this time, in Jintan County, the county examination twice every three years also kicked off.

Yu stood in front of the county office, listening to the newly appointed Huang County Order read out various matters, and suddenly raised his eyes to look north, his eyes burning.

In August this year, it is the autumn season, the capital, waiting for me.
