Ninety-seventh homecoming

Yanzi peeled two peanuts and threw them into his mouth: "It was the last time my aunt took me to the town to hang out, those people knew that my family was doing well, and they were willing to spend money to buy things, so they took a box of jewelry for us to choose, saying that it was the property of a county lord." I didn't believe it at the time, our emperor was far away, where did the county lord come from. The man said that he was a county lord. My aunt is very knowledgeable, and said that those things are indeed handmade in the capital, and two of them are still from the inner house, and the places next to them can't be done. ”

"You ...... Bought it? ”

"My aunt said she didn't like things in the capital, so let's just take a look."

Xiao Dong nodded, and Yanzi kindly reminded her: "Auntie, it's time to start the pot, right?" ”

In winter, he opened the steamer, and the hot white gas suddenly gushed out, with a puff of incense.

The swallow couldn't help it again, so he took a piece of chopsticks and tasted it.

"Auntie, if only I could stay a few more days, I want to learn how to cook with you."

Xiao Dong smiled: "You don't want to go home?" ”

Yanzi was suddenly deflated: "I want to ...... But we're going to get punished when we go back. ”

Of course. It's all developed to the point of burning the house, and there is no punishment? Maybe he'll kill someone next time.

"Auntie, do you want to go to Suizhou?"

Xiao Dong was stunned, Suizhou......

Although she had never been, she was ...... there. Not new at all.

Qin Lie had described to her many times how natural and beautiful the scenery of Suizhou was, and it was his hometown.

Xiao Dong is also very excited-

But...... What she and Qin Lie planned was to either go back during the Chinese New Year, or go back at the turn of spring and summer next year, the weather would not be very hot, the water and land routes would be easy to walk, and they would spend a summer in Suizhou.

Several of Zhao Lu's comrades were probably a little frightened by such a high-ranking and powerful prince as King An, and they didn't stay to eat, but with the Li family brothers and sisters here, this meeting couldn't be deserted. is also very open in front of King An, and he chatters endlessly. Although the food is not rude, it is not gentle, and the chef of King An's Mansion deliberately showed his skills for the county lord to return to his parents' house, and the three small eyebrows of the Li family smiled.

Looking at their eating appearances, even King An added half a bowl of rice than usual.

The innocence of children is not mixed at all, they still have the concept of power in their hearts, and they are purely curious about King An rather than what they are trying to please like others. An Wang was obviously in a good mood and almost answered all questions.

Yanzi's eyes were round, and he suddenly asked, "Lord Wang, can you let your aunt go back to Suizhou with us?" ”

Xiao Dong was stunned, and King An was obviously a little surprised, but what kind of city he was, of course he didn't show anything on his face, so he only asked with a smile: "What?" ”

The swallow's chopsticks swiped around the edge of the bowl, a little embarrassed: "We...... In fact, he sneaked out of home and came to the capital with the sister of the Shi family. At home...... Got into trouble. If we go back on our own, my uncle will definitely not spare us...... Well, if Uncle Lie and Aunt go back together......"

Children are cunning, too.

King An smiled.

Of course, if Qin Lie sent them back in front of guests, of course the elders in the family would not be able to teach them too harshly. Besides, Qin Lie would definitely intercede for them. If Xiao Dong goes back together, then the certainty will be even greater.

Neither is Xiao Dongqi, nor is Le.

Children are cunning and cunning, but their cunning is childish and cute, and not annoying.

King An suddenly said, "Xiao Dong, what are you and Qin Lie's plans?" ”

"We were going to either go back for the winter or go back for the summer next year."

King An nodded: "Actually, it's okay for you to go back this year." These kids don't look honest, don't come back and run halfway. ”

Xiao Dong is also worried about this. These three children are really not worry-free, although Qin Lie said that he would send someone to send them back, but they were locked up in Suizhou, and they could still sneak to the capital, what could they not do?

"But......" Xiaodong hesitated.

Speaking of which, in fact, she was reluctant to King An and Zhao Lu.

Just got married, and is still adapting to a new house and a new life, and suddenly has to go to Suizhou, which is so far away, it is impossible not to be apprehensive. It was completely unfamiliar to her, and there was no King An who spoiled her and Zhao Lu who protected her. Qin Lie...... Qin Lie is her husband, but after all, her life with him is still very short.

Besides, in this era it is not so easy to go out, in modern times everything is easy to say, buy a ticket, a small bag will become. However, in this era, everything for food and clothing must be prepared, and it is by no means easy to take a car or boat or sedan chair. Xiao Dong has not been far away, at most he goes to the mountain villa for leisure, it is only a day or two, and such a long journey is a different thing.

In fact, there is another reason, they are not in a hurry to go back, because although Suizhou is Qin Lie's hometown, he has no relatives there except for the Qin family. The Lin family is almost an enemy, the Qin family's maiden family...... That's long since it was cut in two. There are no relatives to visit, and there is no ancestral shrine to make offerings. At this time, people say that the local feelings are constantly cut, but in fact, most of them are attached to relatives. Qin Lie didn't have this kind of concern, so he was naturally not in a hurry to go back.

"It's good to go back and take a look, Suizhou ......" King An was a little distracted: "Your mother was born in Su'an." If you're passing by, you can go and see ......."

Yes......

Yes, it is also Yao Qingyuan's hometown.

Xiao Dong does not have a deep attachment to this mother. One is because she has memories of her past life. The second is that Yao Qingyuan left too early, and it has not been her who has been raising and taking care of Xiaodong, if you talk about it, Hu is more like a mother. She took care of her for more than ten years, dressed her and put shoes on her when she was young, fed her, and coaxed her to sleep. When she was older, many of the girls' rules were taught to her by the Hu family first......

"Okay...... Go back, I'll discuss it with Qin Lie. ”

The swallow and the native brother looked at each other and smiled triumphantly.

Eighty percent of these three children have been thinking about finding a backer for themselves to avoid being punished, right? At that time, I guess I thought the same way when I found the capital, but I didn't expect that it would be a step later, and Li Wanhe and the Qin family had already left. If they were sent back by Qin Lie again, Li Wanhe estimated that he would not only have to settle accounts with them for burning houses, but also for them to leave home and sneak into the capital. The punishment for the two crimes is certainly not light.

Zhao Lu showed a reluctant look: "Father, my sister has never been far from the capital......

"Sooner or later, I always have to go and see it." King An thought: "If it weren't for the mundane affairs, I really wanted to take a look." ”

Zhao Lu closed his mouth and ate with his head down.

Xiao Dong was also a little undecided. After going back, he discussed this matter with Qin Lie, and Qin Lie was very happy: "It's okay to go now, it just happened to rain, and in the next few days, the weather should be good, and the road should be easy to walk." ”

"But......" Xiaodong said softly, "I have never left the capital......"

And the first time I left, I went to Suizhou so far away. And along the way, there was a lot of land and water......

Qin Lie smiled and hugged her: "What's this, I want to take you to more places in the future." You know what? All the way to the west, past Taozhou, is Ye An, where your brother used to be stationed. From there to the west, out of the double well, through Danxia, is a desert. I've walked that road twice, and the desert is very hot during the day, but it is very cold at night, and you are shivering with cold wrapped in your leather jacket. During the vigil, the moon seemed so close that it seemed to be touchable as soon as you stretched out your hand. The sky is inky blue, and the stars are more beautiful and brilliant than the brightest gems. The moonlight shone on the sand dunes far and near, as white as frost, as if a layer of snow had fallen, and it was beautiful. I thought of you, of the many places I've walked – I want to take you to see them. It's a big world, and it's so beautiful everywhere......"

Xiao Dong was moved by the beauty he depicted.

Yes, her vision is too narrow, and she is only trapped in such a boxy world as the capital. Women in this era are like this, so she has never felt that there is anything wrong with living like this.

But Qin Lie opened another door for her.

This world is very big, and there is not only such a small piece of sky as the capital.

"Hmm......" Xiao Dong said softly, "You remind me of the story of sitting in a well and watching the sky, I am like that frog, sitting at the bottom of the well, not daring to jump out." The bottom of the well is small, but it is safe...... Although the outside world is vast and beautiful, it is also strange and full of dangers. ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Xiao Dong smiled at him.

Yes, she's not alone. Qin Lie is as robust and reliable as a mountain.

What's more, it's just a trip back to my hometown. The fourth princess is so delicate and picky, and she went back to her hometown with the horse to worship her ancestors. Although I complained in every way after I came back......

"Okay, then."

Final word.

Suddenly, I have to face a lot of things, and the preparation for the trip is not easy, the clothes to be worn, the food and medicinal materials to be prepared, these things alone can be loaded with half a boat, bedding, books to read on weekdays, teapots, cups, dishes and chopsticks, and even basins, gargles, and toilets. Xiao Dong was a little surprised: "These ...... Also with it? ”

Hu nodded heavily: "I want to take it." ”

Belch......

Xiao Dong asked Qin Lie, and Qin Lie also nodded and said, "Since you can bring it, then take it, otherwise you will be very unaccustomed to it outside." The best inn on the road, the things inside are like that, not to mention that you have to spend many days on the ship, if you don't bring it, it will inevitably be inconvenient everywhere. ”

Xiao Dong really wants to confess that she is not pampered - but she has indeed been pampered for the past ten years. Let her use the unclean toilet, the basin with the water on it, or the crude utensils, she ...... Well, you can't pack a ticket and say you must be able to adapt to it.

There is also who to bring, Hu must follow, although Xiao Dong persuaded her, I think she is not better than a young man, or stay in the house, but Hu is very persistent, it seems that Xiao Dong can't eat or sleep without her: "The county lord asked me to stay, I must be worried about twelve hours a day." ”

As for the others, Hongfu takes care of Xiaodong's personal work, and she comes to comb her hair, change clothes, and serve tea and quilts, so she must bring it. Red Vitex is silent but cautious, and it is also to be brought. The others were screened and screened and selected by the Hu family, and finally Ke Er Miaoer was able to accompany them.

The three brothers and sisters of the Li family were also so excited that they jumped up and down every day, although the capital was good, but after all, they were homesick, and they were already like arrows.

The house is preparing, and other major travel events, car and ship arrangements, and escorts are all Qin Lie in Zhang Luo.

Xiao Dong was so busy that he was dizzy, but suddenly remembered something.

That Shixiu girl, did she stay with her cousin in the capital? Or go back to Suizhou with you?

Ask for a ticket......

I won't break the change when I go out...... Fist
