Chapter 219: Returning to the Hometown
"Uncle Liu, do you think I should buy some dowry here?" On the night that Zhou Mingyu was imprisoned, Cherry took advantage of Zhou Mingyuan's permission for her to escape from the palace with the help of Liu Dezhong, and took money from various money banks non-stop, and left Jingqing County overnight.
In a hurry, he didn't have time to greet Sun Qingzhu, so he could only wait until he returned home and then ask someone to send him a letter. However, it is estimated that when he heard about the changes in the palace, he would probably guess his whereabouts. He is the only one who knows everything about her except for Zhou Muze and a few others.
Now, they have arrived in Mizusawa County. Zhou Mingyu didn't expect her at all, so there would be no danger. There is only one Zhou Mingyuan who will investigate this matter. Now Zhou Mingyuan is stumped by Zhou Mingyu's affairs again, and they have also left the scope of Jingqing County, which is already safe.
Shuize County, although not as prosperous as Jingqing, is also full of people, with many shops, and there are many things that cannot be bought in the town.
Cherry has changed back into women's clothes, at this time bent her eyes, full of comfortable smiles, Ying Ying looked at Liu Dezhong: "Although it has not been easy in the past three years, I have also fallen a few hundred taels of silver." I am going to give the second sister a dowry, so that she can marry beautifully, and the people of the Peng family in the province look down on us. Well, let's go through this trip from the county seat, why don't we take some back? "The eighteenth change of the female college, the cherry of the men's clothing is slightly thin, but it is also a handsome little girl with clear eyebrows. At this time, when I changed back into women's clothes, I saw that her cheeks were like pink, and her skin was like congealed fat, as if she was about to pinch out the water. A simple women's dress just right to set off her slender waist and tall figure, and those smiling eyes seemed to be able to speak, all of which made the faint scar on her face dim and disshaped, so that people could hardly notice it.
"What are you anxious about, stay in front, all the best stores, you can choose." While driving the carriage, Liu Dezhong smiled at the cherry nunu in the carriage: "Look at it, you picked half of the carriage for gifts alone." Sakura, you've come to the end this time. When you look back, don't forget Uncle Liu. I still count on going to your house to eat the meat of the jellyfish you knocked and drink the wine made by your sister. ”
Because Zhou Muze still had to take care of the affairs in the palace, he couldn't come to deliver the cherries in person, so he could only send Liu Dezhong over. Originally, Mei Yunyun asked for his life to come over, but Zhou Muze did not agree. Liu Dezhong vaguely understood what was going on, and looked at the cherry with even more pity.
Sakura, Sakura, she's finally 'Sakura' again, it's been a long time since I've been called by this name. The cherry's heart is a little sour, but it is full of joyful sweetness, and the mixture of sweet and sour makes people feel strange. Cherry laughs, "That's nature. When the time comes, you can go when you want, and I will ask a few sisters to serve you a few times. ”
"Hehe, look at you, I'm so happy." Liu Dezhong's eyes flashed with doting. For so many years, he and Cherry have long been as close as uncles and nephews, and treat her as their own child.
Cherry held her hand, and the corners of her mouth couldn't hide the joy. I don't know how surprised and happy my sisters will be when they see her, and I really want to fly back now and reunite with them.
When he arrived at a shop, Liu Dezhongle parked the carriage, went into the shop with Cherry to pick out some things, and then got in the car again and walked to the next shop.
After picking five or six shops, there was really no more in the carriage, so the two of them continued on their way.
"Uncle Liu." After thinking for a long time, Cherry took out the short dagger with a dark body from her waist, this little thing, it has been with her for three years, and now it is time to return it to its original owner, she is very reluctant: "This ......" This matter is over, she has nothing to do with Zhou Muze, Zhou Mingyuan, Liu Dezhong, and the palace, and the people in the palace. Thinking of this, she was a little reluctant, and I don't know if it was really born of servility after being called and drunk in the past few years, or if it was a few individuals.
"How?" Seeing the short dagger, Liu Dezhong's eyebrows jumped.
"This was originally your master's, but now that he is gone, you can help me pass it on." Cherry reached for it.
"This ......" Liu Dezhong vaguely knew something in his heart, and he understood that this short dagger could not be easily taken back. He was a little embarrassed: "Sakura, master, he has taken care of the affairs over there, and he will catch up." When the time comes, you will return it to him with your own hands. ”
"We're almost there." Cherry looks ahead, from the county seat to the town, it will not take a day. And it only took an hour to return to the village from the town. She should be happy and excited as she gets closer and closer to home, but somehow, she has a little hope and fear.
Liu Dezhong didn't know what he thought, so he turned to laugh and waved his horsewhip with a smile: "Then don't worry, he said that he would catch up, and he would definitely catch up." When we left the palace, in order to be safe, we also made a long detour, which was enough for him to turn around. ”
Cherry lowered her eyes, rested her hand on the brand-new cloth she had just bought, and said secretly in her heart, I hope.
In addition to wanting to know how things are going in the palace, she also wants to know how Zhou Mingyuan reacted after knowing that she was gone. Anyway, she always felt that something was wrong with him. Maybe...... None of this was a reason, but she didn't want to admit that she wanted to see someone again.
Liu Dezhong saw that Cherry didn't speak, and didn't say anything more, quietly drove the carriage to a secluded place, got off the carriage with Cherry, and rested under the big tree.
"Sakura ......" Liu Dezhong glanced at her, opened his mouth, but shook his head again: "It's nothing." ”
"I haven't been home for a long time...... Cherry looked up at the tree, diluting the faint melancholy in her heart with the joy of coming home. She looked forward to this day, she waited for this day, I don't know how long. For this day, I don't know how much effort I made, how much hardship I suffered, and how tired I was. Now that the day has finally arrived, she suddenly has an inexplicable sense of loss, and this taste makes her herself inexplicably wonderful. There's one thing she's worried about right now...... Yifang is there with Zhou Mingyuan, and he doesn't know what will happen.
However, Cherry concluded that as long as Zhou Mingyuan couldn't find him, Yifang would not be in any danger. It's just that...... Still worried.
"Get ......" Suddenly, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Liu Dezhong and Cherry's hearts jumped in shock.
Turning his face to look, in the dust, it was Zhou Muze who rushed with a horsewhip. Cherry breathed a sigh of relief, a smile unconsciously on her lips.
"Master" Liu Dezhong hurriedly greeted him and took the horse rope to tie the horse.
Zhou Muze's face was dusty, obviously he caught up with him all the way. He gasped slightly, approached Cherry, and looked serious and serious: "What's the matter, didn't you meet anyone on the road?" ”
"Nope. It's going well. Cherry grinned, feeling that she was smiling extremely unnaturally: "How is the situation in the palace?" ”
"It didn't go very well." Zhou Muze shook his head: "Someone rescued him." But fortunately, it has been caught. The prince was furious, Rao is princess and the princess cried and begged, and they also flogged him twenty lashes at the moment, locked him in prison, and prepared to be escorted to Beijing for interrogation by the emperor. The vigilance and hatred in his eyes relaxed slightly at this time: "After this incident, even if Zhou Mingyu can survive, he is still a waste, so there is no need to worry." ”
"That's good......" Cherry naturally asked, "Then, what about Zhou Mingyuan?" ”
Hearing Cherry ask, Zhou Muze looked stunned, and then laughed a little self-deprecatingly: "He? Hehe...... You care about him. ”
"This matter, after all, can't stand him......" She really felt a little sorry for Zhou Mingyuan. Speaking of which, this matter has nothing to do with him after all, not to mention that people regard themselves as talents, and they have been rewarded with so much money, and they are about to focus on training, but they played a trick on others, patted their butts and ran away.
"He is looking for you, and he has searched the entire palace." Zhou Muze's expression was almost invisible, and the slight radiance that he had just brought about because of the mention of Zhou Mingyu also quietly retreated, and his eyes drooped slightly: "You, don't ask him to find you again." Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Zhou Muze frowned slightly, what he said was extremely vague. When people listen to it, they will think that it seems that Zhou Mingyuan is looking for cherries to vent his anger. It was the first time he had said such a thing in front of his own people. I felt uncomfortable and awkward. I didn't want to say that, but when the words came to my lips, I somehow said it like this.
He felt uncomfortable and a little surprised at the same time. When did he have such selfishness?
"So ......" Hearing Zhou Muze say this, Cherry was worried and a little unhappy. After all, Zhou Mingyuan is not a heinous bad person, on the contrary, he has been taking good care of himself since he entered the Houshe Hospital. And this time Zhou Mingyu's incident was also helped by him.
"You don't need to worry too much. After all, Jingqing County is some distance from Shuize County, and besides, your town is so far away from Shuize County, he only knows your appearance, but he doesn't know your name and details, so he can't find you. Besides, you're just a small person, and after this matter passes, it is estimated that there will be no more investigations. Zhou Muze saw that Cherry was worried, and said comfortingly.
"Hmm......" Cherry nodded. That's it, what Zhou Mingyuan, what prince and princess, there is no possibility of seeing it again in the future, what else does she want to do? She should be excited now that she is going home, that she is going to see her sisters.
Liu Dezhong came back with a bolt on his horse, and when he saw that the two were talking, he hid to the side.
"Huh? What are you ......" Zhou Muze's sharp eyes saw that Cherry was holding the short dagger in his hand, and his eyebrows raised slightly.
"Oh, the dagger. Now that I'm not in the palace, I don't need it to defend myself, so I'll give it back to you. Cherry raised her face, and saw a little bit of depression on Zhou Muze's backlit handsome face.
Zhou Muze's narrow eyes blinked a few times, and he reached out to hold the ...... handed over by the cherry Wrist.
