The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 248 Departure to the North
Zhao Yunlan handed over all the affairs of the capital to Li Mingyi, and Li Dashan and the others were also going back to Lijia Village. This time, Lin Youjin followed Li Dashan's team over there. Li Bao and Ding Fengying stayed in the capital for the time being to cooperate. Various matters on Li Mingyi's side.

There are many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the capital, and they are just starting out, so Li Mingyi naturally wants to pay more attention.At the same time, Zhao Yunlan also asked Li Mingyi to keep an eye on the houses in the capital, and take them down when they meet a suitable one.The lease term of the house on Huaiyuan Street is coming up soon. Although the house is a bit small, the landlord is not willing to sell it, so Zhao Yunlan's idea of ​​buying the house was dismissed for a moment.

Zhao Yunlan brought along Chunxiang and Li Hua's guards, but she still felt that there were not enough people, so she went to buy some servants, a woman, two maids, and five strong men who could kung fu.These strong men are all from rich families. They used to work as nursing homes in big houses, but they were taken home by Zhao Yunlan as soon as they were sold out.

"Grandma Tang, if you don't understand something, just ask Chunxiang, Xiaozhen and Xiaoman, you two will follow Chunxiang first."

"Yes, ma'am." After saluting, the three of them followed Chunxiang to pack their luggage.

At this moment Lin Youjin found it, holding a roll of what looked like sheepskin in his hand.

Li Mingren asked: "What did Brother Lin take?"

"It's a road map."

"Are you from the north?" Li Mingren's eyes lit up, and the corners of Zhao Yunlan's mouth raised unconsciously.

Lin Youjin nodded with a smile: "Some of the branch roads are not particularly accurate, but they should also come in handy. I also marked some places where robbers may haunt."

Li Mingren: "Great, thank you Brother Lin."

Lin Youjin shook his head: "Let's not say these polite words, but I'm afraid you don't have enough people."

In fact, there are not many people in those bandit gangs, but they have been in actual combat after all. Although the newly formed guards of the Li family look mighty and domineering there, they have little actual combat experience.

Li Mingren: "Well, there is news from the county magistrate over there that they will send people to meet us, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Okay, everything is about yourself."

Three days later, the two teams set off from the capital.

"Brother, sister-in-law, be careful on the road, and write to me when you arrive." Li Mingyi said worriedly.

Li Mingren: "Okay, don't worry."

After Li Dashan and Lin Youjin bid farewell to Li Mingren and his wife, they drove the carriage one step ahead.

Zhao Yunlan: "Second brother has to work hard on the affairs of the capital, and the second brother should pay more attention to the matter of the feather."

Li Mingyi nodded, now the restaurant's vacant storefront selling down products has already hung a plaque, and they will start selling them when the weather gets cold again.But before this, Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingren to send a duvet to each of the Wen family and the Zhou family. This was not only a human relationship, but also a live advertisement for the two families.

Of course, the Zhou family also gave an extra backpack for men and women.Although Wen Zhiyu is Li Mingren's fellow villager, his relationship with Zhou Hanwen has become closer since he came to the capital. After all, Zhou Hanwen has been back and forth several times these days in order to get more information about Li Mingren's election.

The carriage drove out of the capital.

"Yunlan, brother Hanwen brought me a gift yesterday." Li Mingren took out a small wooden box from his bag.

Zhao Yunlan took it and opened it, "This dagger is really pretty." A sapphire was inlaid on the dagger, which suits Li Mingren very well.Zhao Yunlan drew out the dagger, wanting to feel the sharpness of the dagger like on TV, but was stopped immediately by Li Mingren.

"Be careful to cut your hand." Li Mingren inserted the dagger back, and continued: "Brother Zhou also said that he lent me a few hidden guards to protect the safety of both of us."

Zhao Yunlan asked curiously: "Dark Guard? Really? Where is it?" Thinking in her heart that this week's family is really not simple, it turns out that there really is such an organization as Dark Guard.

Li Mingren: "I don't know where it is, so I should follow it nearby. This hidden guard has been with him since he was a child and has been protecting him. If there is no accident, we should not be able to see them."

Zhao Yunlan nodded, aroused curiosity but couldn't get proof, so she leaned on the carriage and closed her eyes to rest.What followed was another period of hard work.

"I hope we will have a smooth journey and arrive safely." Zhao Yunlan squinted her eyes and said in a daze.

It's not too far away from the capital, so the road is fairly flat, and I can see some people from time to time.At the end of the day, the group arrived in Qingfeng County. Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingren decided to have lunch here before continuing on their way.Qingfeng County is a necessary place to enter and leave the capital. Because the route to the north from Beijing this time is different from the route when he came here, Li Mingren does not plan to stay in Qingfeng County.

Moreover, Qingfeng County is far away from the next foothold, and they can reach it in Xu time even if they are in a hurry.

After the meal, the husband and wife set off without much delay. Zhao Yunlan knew that she had to hurry, so she didn't dare to eat too much, lest she would be thrown up by the carriage.

Now that it's getting colder, it's getting dark earlier. At this moment, Li Hua has already raised a torch in front of the carriage, just to rush to Qizhou.

Li Mingren lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the twilight outside, and looked at the light ahead from a distance, thinking that he was about to arrive.

"Yunlan, I'm about to enter the city."

Zhao Yunlan nodded: "Well, find a nearby inn to stay for one night."

The group entered the city, and soon found an inn near the gate of the city. The accommodation conditions in this inn were not bad, but the food was not to their liking. Li Mingren and Zhao Yunlan didn't care about it, and went to bed after eating and washing.

Because it may not be so easy to travel later on. After leaving Qizhou, it will take about two days to go north to reach the next foothold, which means that one night in the middle will have to sleep in the wilderness again.

When Li Mingren and Zhao Yunlan were about to leave the next day, they found that He Wen was missing, and when they were about to send Li Hua to look for them, they saw He Wen rushing over.

"Madam, master, I went to buy some medicine. I checked some luggage last night, and I was worried that I didn't have enough medicine, so I went to the pharmacy again in the morning."

Li Mingren nodded, and Zhao Yunlan said, "Well, you must report this kind of thing in the future. Even if we fall asleep, you have to tell Chunxiang or Ye Sheng."

He Wen: "Yes, little one, I didn't think about it last night, and I was in a rush this morning and didn't think about it."

Zhao Yunlan: "Well, be more careful next time, but this time you will be punished for what should be punished, and you will be fined for this month's monthly rule."

He Wen didn't complain, but respectfully said: "Yes, ma'am."

When going out, Zhao Yunlan has always been used to keeping track of everyone's dynamics. Probably when she was a teacher before, Zhao Yunlan used to take the children to outdoor activities and used to roll call. If she wants to act alone, she must say in advance.

Of course, Zhao Yunlan trained He Wen as a housekeeper, so it is necessary to dig out more details about He Wen, starting from He Wen to restrain him, and then He Wen can help restrain other servants in the family.
