Chapter 137: The Third Uncle is trapped
He Lanyue looked at the visitor and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come back halfway?" ”
Zidian's expression was calm, "The third uncle is trapped in a post station, and he may not be able to leave in a short time." ”
"What's going on, you made it clear."
They passed by a post station, and they were afraid that they would miss the lodging if they went any further, so the third uncle decided to settle down and rest at the post station.
Before they rested, there were only four or five people at the post station, but in the second half of the night, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly came, pulling three carriages.
At that time, I was worried that I would be discovered by the officers and soldiers, so I quietly left and went outside to rest in the woods for the night.
But early the next morning, I heard that there was an accident at the post station.
I pretended to be a passer-by and wanted to enter the post station to inquire about the news, but the entire post station was guarded by officers and soldiers, and I was not allowed to enter or leave.
Later, I saw the county magistrate enter the post station with a group of officials, and they also left soon after.
I quietly followed behind them, watching the county order go to the capital city, thinking that the matter must be very serious.
After the county magistrate and the prefect returned to the post station again, I took a masked abduction of a servant and asked if the 100,000 taels of silver for repairing the river embankment in the post station were gone.
General Youyi, the vanguard of the escort, said that if the silver was not recovered, no one in the post station would be allowed to leave. ”
Helan Yue is heart sank the more she listens, where is this lost silver so easy to recover, if it drags on for more than a month, the third uncle's scientific expedition will be missed.
The next opportunity will be three years later.
Three years later, Helan Yue didn't dare to think that she couldn't wait to get up.
"You go back and rest for the night, and I'll look for you tomorrow."
After speaking, Helan Yue went back to the courtyard.
After lying on the bed, Helan Yue couldn't sleep.
simply entered the space, while busy with the work in hand, while thinking about what she should do next, so that the third uncle could enter Kyoto to take the exam as scheduled.
When she had put all the grapes into a jar or jar, she put rock sugar in it and corked her mouth.
Finally she thought of someone who might be able to help her.
Out of the space and lying on the bed, hoping that the sky will light up soon.
Maybe she was too tired, and after a while she fell asleep.
Following.
The eldest sister's action of getting up instantly woke Helan Yue up, she got up quickly, and after washing, she didn't even bother to eat and went out.
She came to the courtyard next door and slammed the door.
Soon, footsteps and the muttering of the book list were heard: "Who! This early morning disturbing dream. ”
Helan Yue said outside the door: "I, I have something urgent to find Su Qinyan, open the door quickly." ”
As soon as the scholar heard that it was He Lanyue's voice, he suddenly woke up, sped up his pace and rushed over, and hurriedly opened the door.
She didn't need a scholar to lead the way, she came to the door of Su Qinyan's wing room familiarly, and shouted while patting on the door: "Su Qinyan, I have something urgent to find you, you come out quickly." ”
After waiting for a while, not only Su Qinyan came out, but Chu Xiaohe and Wen Chongming also came out.
Before Su Qinyan could speak, Wen Chongming yawned and said, "Senior sister, do you know that disturbing others' rest is tantamount to murdering for money." ”
"Then have you ever heard that going to bed early is equivalent to chronic suicide, I don't look for you, don't interrupt."
After speaking, Helan Yue turned her head to look at Su Qinyan, her face was very serious, "Su Qinyan, can you help my third uncle?" ”
Su Qinyan asked calmly, "What's the matter?" Go into the house and sit down and talk slowly. ”
Helan Yue followed him into the house, and Chu Xiaohe and Wen Chongming also followed them into the house.
After a few people sat down, He Lanyue clearly told her all the news that Zidian told her yesterday.
After speaking, she quietly waited for Su Qinyan's reply.
Su Qinyan and Chu Xiaohe glanced at each other, "We just want to leave for Beijing today." ”
Helan Yue was overjoyed, the matter was done, and they were ready to help her.
She stood up and said, "I'm going to Kyoto too, and I'm just on the way, so I'll go back and pack my things and go with you." ”
After saying that, he left.
Su Qinyan got up and went back to the room to pack his things.
Chu Xiaohe looked at Wen Chongming and said, "What about you! Come with us, or stay here. ”
"I'm going to follow my sister, and I'll go wherever she goes."
"Okay."
When she got home, Helan Yue was worried again, she went out this time, and she didn't know how long it would take to come back, how would she tell her grandmother!
After eating morning food, the two younger brothers went to a private school.
The third aunt and uncle and aunt took the eldest cousin and the second cousin to the workshop.
Helan Yue thought about it in the room for a while, and finally decided to tell her grandmother the truth.
In case the third uncle still misses the time, he will have to return home in the end.
She said it in advance, so that it would not make the family feel too sudden.
When she thought about it, she went out of the room and saw her grandmother sitting under the eaves making clothes, taking care of Little Stone and Little Cousin by the way.
The little white wolf pounced the moment he saw her.
Only then did He Lanyue realize that she hadn't fed the little white wolf the Pure Spirit Spring for a long time.
She went to the hall and replaced the water in the teapot with a pure spiritual spring, poured a glass of water for her grandmother, and then poured some into the little white wolf's bowl.
Watching her grandmother drink the spiritual spring, Helan Yue slowly told the third uncle's current situation and her plans.
When grandmother heard this, her face became a little pale, and she eased up for a while, "Yue'er, since Su Gongzi agreed to help, don't go, let your uncle go with them." ”
"Grandmother, I can have little in the family, but if there is no man in charge, and when Chu Gongzi also left with him, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no trouble.
It's okay for people in our own village to talk, but what about people from other villages!
Now that there are two workshops in the family, there is not a single man in charge of the house, which will definitely be despised by people.
So, it's best for me to go.
Don't worry, I'm going out to dress up as a man, and with Su Gongzi and a few people, I'll definitely be fine. ”
Grandmother held Helan Yue in her arms with a distressed face, and her body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
Helan Yue felt the wetness on her shoulders, she patted her grandmother's hand lightly, and comforted: "Grandmother, when I go out, I will go out to play in the mountains and rivers, if I let Xiaoshan know that he has to go out to play with him." ”
Just when the grandmother was holding her sadly, she suddenly felt a soft little person pounce on her and hug the legs of the two.
I only heard his soft voice say: "Sister, play!" ”
Grandmother burst into tears and laughed, and nodded her little nose on a small stone, "Where do you want to play, little thing?" ”
"Sister playing." As he spoke, Xiao Shi's big black grape-like eyes stared at Helan Yue tightly.
Helan Yue saw that her heart was soft, as long as this little guy didn't turn on the question mode, she really wanted to take him with her from time to time.
"I'll take you out next time."
"When?"
"At the time of the Chinese New Year."
"Pull the hook."
