Extra-Extra-Traveler (3)
The next day, before dawn, everyone got up.
First, I couldn't sleep in the post house, and second, I had to hurry, so I simply got up early.
Brother Lin was the most careful, and when he saw Yin Xiaoxiao, he felt that something was wrong, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, didn't you sleep well last night?" ”
Brother Ting also frowned: "Fifth aunt, why are your eyes a little red?" "That's not right! I didn't sleep well, my eyes were blue and black, so red and slightly swollen, it was clearly a trace of crying.
The two daughters-in-law also implicitly expressed concern.
Yin Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed to be looked at by everyone like this, and replied vaguely: "It's nothing." ”
It's a bit of a shame. For so many years, she has been strong, and as soon as she left the capital, she dreamed of her husband who had been dead for many years, and cried sadly for a long time. My eyes were swollen from crying, and I couldn't cover them even if I wanted to.
What a shame!
Brother Lin didn't get to the bottom of it, but only told with concern: "Mother, don't ride a horse today, take a carriage!" ”
Yin Xiaoxiao said: "I don't want to take the carriage, I continue to ride." ”
Brother Ting blurted out: "My eyes are so red and swollen, what if I can't see the way clearly?" It's too dangerous to ride a horse like this, so let's take a carriage! ”
Yin Xiaoxiao: "......"
Yin Xiaoxiao glared at the outspoken Brother Ting'er: "My riding skills are very good, you don't have to worry about it." After saying that, he left with a stiff face.
Come on! It's annoyed!
Brother Ting looked innocent and looked at Brother Lin: "I kindly remind the fifth aunt, what's wrong!" ”
Brother Lin rolled his eyes: "Come on, don't be verbose." Don't you know my mother's temper? She wants to ride a horse, and no one can stop her. Let's ride along, brother and us! ”
……
Traveling far away, everyone felt fresh and interesting at first, but after more than half a month, the novelty dissipated, and only fatigue remained.
Yin Xiaoxiao rode a horse for days, but she was also tired, and after a few days, she finally sat in the carriage. Gossip with two daughters-in-law to pass the time.
Mei Yun is the daughter-in-law of her in-laws, and she is naturally closer to Yin Xiaoxiao. Liu Yan has a gentle temperament and a blue heart, which is quite lovable.
Get along day and night, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talk and laugh, and they are quite harmonious.
Mei Yun and Liu Yan are talking in private, and they are often happy: "My mother-in-law was born in a general, and I heard that she is very good." Before I got married, I was worried about how to serve my mother-in-law so that she could be satisfied. I didn't expect my mother-in-law to be so kind to me. ”
"Yes! The fifth aunt has a down-to-earth temperament, is open-minded, speaks and acts in a measured manner, which is admirable and respectful! It is our blessing to have such elders. ”
The two were friends when they were in Shudi, and later went to the capital to study together and became classmates, and now they are married to two brothers and become concubines. The relationship is not much closer than that of sisters. Together, there is almost no end to what to say.
Mei Yun suddenly sighed: "In a few days, I will be in Quanzhou." We settled down in Quanzhou, and you husband and wife have to go to Fuzhou. ”
Liu Yan was also full of reluctance: "I can't bear you either." ”
Speaking of which, the Son of Heaven has taken great care of his two nephews. specially ordered the two of them to come to Fujian together. Quanzhou and Fuzhou are only three days apart, and it is not difficult to meet.
Liu Yan suddenly laughed in a low voice: "I won't tell you, seeing that I am about to arrive in Quanzhou, Xianggong has been in a rather low mood for the past two days." I secretly shed tears last night. ”
Mei Yun smiled dumbly. They have all known each other since childhood, and they are very familiar with each other, so there is no need to have scruples when speaking: "I really can't see that the rough appearance of King Ning Shizi is so sentimental." ”
Liu Yan pursed her lips and laughed: "Don't talk about you, I can't think of it!" ”
Brother Ting is quite tall, and he is a first-class strong among young people of the same age, and his temper is not very good, and he often wrinkles his eyebrows and glares. No matter how you look at it, he looks like an eight-foot man and a hero.
Who would have thought that in private, Brother Ting is emotional, sensitive and fragile?
Maybe it's also because Brother Ting has had no father and mother since he was a child. A child without a father and a mother, he was raised by Yin Xiaoxiao as a son, and he has a deep affection for Yin Xiaoxiao, and his brotherhood with Brother Lin is also very close.
……
As Quanzhou approached, Brother Ting'er's mood became lower and lower day by day.
On this day, I finally arrived at the last post house outside Quanzhou, stayed here for one night to repair, and tomorrow we should part ways.
Brother Ting'er had a strong reluctance in his heart, and there was a trace of confusion that he couldn't speak. There is even a faint sadness of being abandoned.
No matter how well the fifth aunt treats him, she is not his own mother in the end. The fifth aunt always has to live with Brother Lin. From now on, he was alone......
Brother Ting didn't eat a mouthful of food, and sat there in a daze, his eyes flashing again.
Liu Yan: "......"
Seeing such a scene for the first time, she felt distressed and pity, and comforted him for a long time.
watched it for five or six nights in a row, no matter how soft her heart was, she also had the urge to turn her face and beat people.
"If you don't eat it again, the food will be cold." Liu Yan said softly: "After eating, I will go with you to say goodbye to the fifth aunt." ”
As soon as he heard the word goodbye, Brother Ting'er's tears that he had endured for a long time finally fell: "I'm not going!" Going to go you alone! ”
He didn't want to part with them at all!
For the sake of Brother Ting'er's bad mood, Liu Yan didn't care about the bad tone with him, and continued to persuade gently: "Fuzhou is very close to Quanzhou. Didn't you think about it a long time ago? After a period of time, I will go to Quanzhou to live for a few days. ”
Brother Ting said with red eyes: "I want to go to Quanzhou with them tomorrow." ”
Liu Yan: "......"
Liu Yan couldn't bear it anymore, and finally glared at it: "You are ordered to go out of Beijing on an errand, how can you be so willful." At least I have to go to Fuzhou to settle down first, and then think about getting together. At that time, you have to write a letter to the emperor first, and you can only go to Quanzhou with the emperor's consent. lest they fall into the sin of dereliction of duty. ”
"If you cry like this, I won't go with you. It's good for you to go to Fuzhou alone! ”
Brother Ting: "......"
Liu Yan stiffened her face, Brother Ting'er was suddenly flustered, and hurriedly wiped her tears with her sleeve, laughed and apologized, and it took a lot of thought to coax his wife.
The two young couples, bickering come and go faster. Soon reconciled, sat down and had dinner.
After dinner, the two went to Yin Xiaoxiao's house together.
Brother Lin and his wife came first, and they didn't know what they said before, Brother Lin's eyes were a little red.
Brother Ting was taken aback, and was about to open his mouth to ask, Yin Xiaoxiao had already looked at it with a smile: "Brother Ting'er, Brother Lin and I have already discussed." Tomorrow, their husband and wife will enter Quanzhou. I will go to Fuzhou with you husband and wife, and when you settle down, I will go back to Quanzhou. ”
Brother Ting: "......"
