Chapter 2--- Lu Family

Three days later

In the early morning, the distant mountains stretch for thousands of miles, the bamboo forest is verdant, the white clouds flow, and several birds fly by.

There are three large and two small carriages parked outside the gate of Zhuyuan, all of which are luxurious, especially the first one, which attracts passers-by to stop from time to time, and whisper in twos and threes.

Several guards with knives smiled at Yan Yan.

The courtyard doors were opened, and the maids and maidservants came and went carrying things.

A middle-aged woman walked out of the courtyard with a smile.

She was dressed in a jade-colored satin robe, with a picture painted on it, her hair was neatly bunned, she looked forty or fifty years old, and there was a black mole on her lips.

"The things are almost ready, and I have to work a few adults along the way. I'm afraid I'm about to leave, so let's drink some tea first. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and picked up the tea bowl and handed it to several people one by one.

"There's Mama Lao Song."

There were a total of eight guards, and they thanked them one after another.

The first person surnamed Zheng was polite and talked to her.

"This time I went back to Chang'an, it will take half a month to say the least, and it is early autumn, and the direction of Gyeonggi is getting colder and colder, so Mama prepared in advance."

"Yes."

Mama Song replied with a smile, raised her head and said something more, but saw that the escort surnamed Zheng suddenly froze his eyes, and the person who originally felt calm was a little out of shape.

Not only him, but several other people around him were the same, the air instantly condensed, silent, and everyone's eyes were directed to one place.

The woman paused slightly, but then she thought about it, lowered her eyes and smiled, and slowly turned back.

Sure enough, where the morning sun shone down, under the vermilion gate, two maidservants and a small servant walked out with a girl in their arms.

The girl has a slender waist and jade bones, green silk like ink, delicate and weak, wearing a white cloak without a wave, as if she is in the fog of smoke, and her face is half-covered and only reveals a pair of beautiful eyes of Qing Lingling, but even this appearance also attracts people to lose their souls.

Mama Song twitched the corner of her lower lip disdainfully.

******

Atai stepped to the front of the car first, bent down, and let the young lady step on his back.

Qinglian and Taohong held Yan Xi and sent her up little by little.

The little girl stepped in, her beautiful eyes flowed, and she slowly swept the furnishings in the car, and there were a lot of fragrant pillows.

She picked up a velvet blanket, turned around and called Atai, who had just gotten up, and said softly:

"Take it, sit outside and be careful of catching a cold, Atai remember to add more clothes."

"Thank you, Miss, Miss should also take care of herself."

The little guy smiled and took it gently.

Qinglian Taohong was also full of care, and followed to tell Atai a few words.

It would take several days to travel along the way, and the three of them could stay in the car, but Atai was a man after all.

There are only four of her left in the Shen family at the moment, and the four of them have relied on each other for their lives over the years, and their feelings are not shallow.

Everything was ready, the carriage drove slowly, Yan Xi gently lifted the curtains and looked out.

The sky was blue, the grass was green, and everything was peaceful, but she was worried in her heart, wondering if she was already far away from that dream, and she didn't know what it would be like in the future......

********

The wheels rolled, gradually bumping.

In another car, the maidservant hung her legs for Mama Song and mentioned the matter of suitable talents with a smile.

"This Miss Shen is really beautiful and fragrant, she was beautiful enough when she was a child, but she didn't expect to be even more beautiful when she got older, can she see what the guards look like when they see her? Eighty percent of the soul is gone! ”

Mama Song's eyes showed disdain, and she spoke slowly after a long time.

"How beautiful is life? It's not a blessed! With such a noble background, what is there to say about falling into such a field. In the past, what a beautiful situation her Shen family was, and how she was friendly with King Sheng back then. If she follows the steps, I think she should marry the only son of King Nasheng and become a noble princess in the future. But who would have thought that King Sheng and her father would be so short-lived, and they would die in battle one after another. ”

“... Now, what else can she do, marriage is a problem, how can she still get married? What if her father was clean? His uncle's matter, the Shen family will be humiliated for the rest of their lives, and they will never want to turn over, who would be willing to marry a criminal minister's niece as a wife.

“... That is, our grandfather was merciful, remembering that little old affection, and took her in. But after so many years, time can dilute everything the most, and that little bit of affection is afraid that it has long disappeared. After all, she is an outsider, who can care more about her? That's why I want to come back quickly, the night is long and there are many dreams, the Lu family is such a noble family, how do you know if they will forget about us over there. ”

The maidservant nodded again and again: "What Mama said is that I am also very afraid to stay in that poor country for the rest of my life and never come back." ”

Mama Song sighed lightly, her eyes slowly glanced at the wooden box on the side, and her smile gradually widened.

She didn't serve the unblessed one in vain.

*******

The eyes are hazy, but the voice in the ears is still unusually clear.

"Run for what, huh?"

A deep voice seemed to be right next to her.

The man's arms were strong and strong, and the temperature on his big hands seemed to be still on her body, kneading her waist.

The heat wave is surging over and over the top.

Yan Xi was burned all over, and woke up suddenly.

"Miss?"

The carriage rolled forward, and the sound of wind and rain and horses' hooves was heard.

Qinglian pulled up the velvet blanket that was covering her.

"Miss, what's wrong? Are you having nightmares again? Why is your face so red? ”

Yan Xi didn't withdraw from the dream for a long time, and there seemed to be residual strength and temperature in the man's hand on his waist, and he couldn't speak, and it took a while to be relieved.

"Hmm..."

She nodded in acknowledgement, but as always, she didn't say much.

"What did the young lady dream about?"

Qinglian was curious, and asked more than once.

But Yan Xi never told each other from beginning to end, and this time it was the same.

Peach Ben also fell asleep, and when she woke up, she brought a water bag for the young lady, unscrewed it, and handed it to her.

"Miss, drink some water and suppress the shock."

Yan Xi took it, the crimson on his face did not disappear, and his delicate lips opened slightly.

"Where?"

In the blink of an eye, they have been out of Suzhou for more than ten days.

Qinglian replied: "When I set off in the morning, Lord Zheng said that I could enter Huainan Road tonight, and I would be able to reach Gyeonggi in more than ten days. ”

Yan Xi clenched the water bag in his hand, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said delicately: "Do you know if there are bullies around here?" ”

"Bully?"

Hearing this, Qinglian and Taohong were both stunned, and both of them laughed in an instant.

Qinglian touched her head and soothed, "What is Miss thinking in her little head?" Where are the bullies? Yes, we are not afraid of him, Lord Zheng and several people are personally sent by the grandfather of the country, and they cannot be idle people, and they will definitely be able to protect the young lady. ”

Pink covered her lips and giggled.

"Miss, shouldn't she have dreamed of being robbed back by a bully to be Mrs. Zhai?"

Yan Xi slowly rolled his eyes and looked at Taohong, but he didn't answer.

Qinglian smiled, saw that she was really scared, and said, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

turned to patiently reassure: "Dreams are dreams, they are all fake, Miss don't be careful." I saw that Master Zheng and the others took care of Miss very well, and they were not in a hurry, preferring to run dozens of miles more, for fear that Miss would be bumpy and hard. I think that in addition to the kindness of others, I am afraid that there is also an explanation from Grandpa Guo in advance. Grandpa Guo treats Miss very well. Miss still remembers when we first came to the Lu family, Grandpa Guo said that he would accept Miss as a righteous daughter, and said that he would treat Miss as his own......"

Of course Yan Xi remembers.

But at that time, she had just lost her father, and she couldn't call someone else's father.

Uncle Lu seems to be precisely because of this, afraid of arousing her sadness, so he only mentioned that mouth, and then did not mention it again.

Later, she fell into the water and had an accident and went to Jiangnan to recuperate.

Although he hadn't come to see her in the past six years, and no one in the Lu family had come to see her, Yan Xi knew that he had spent a lot of money on her.

Ask yourself, she knows enough, and she is even more grateful.

What's more, even when she was young, the Shen family and her father were still there, in fact, she and this Uncle Lu were not very familiar.

She's familiar with... Shengwang...

The carriage suddenly tossed slightly, pulling Yan Xi's thoughts back.

Qinglian and Taohong supported her together.

The ride was already tired, and Yan Xi didn't think much about it anymore, and was supported by the maid and lay on the incense pillow.

Before falling asleep again, she only thought about one thing, that is, to enter Gyeonggi as soon as possible and return to Lu's house as soon as possible.

It seems that only when she really arrives at the Lu family can she completely settle down.

The carriage traveled day and night, and after traveling for more than ten days, it finally arrived in Gyeonggi in early October.

The stone that Yan Xi pressed in his heart all the way along the way finally landed, especially at the moment when he entered the imperial capital, he instantly felt that people were a lot lighter.

She lifted the curtains and looked at the bustling streets, a sense of familiarity hit her heart, and she was obviously happy.

On the afternoon of the sixth day of October, she finally entered the Ningguo Mansion......
