My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

There is no need to bring a group of people to go out for a walk to digest food. Apart from the Zheng family, there are several summer resorts in this area. There are also villages nearby, and it is close to the city. It has always been very peaceful.

If you don't go far, you don't have to worry about safety issues.

Therefore, Xu Yinyin and the three of them only brought a maid to follow, and Zheng Suyue's wet nurse followed.

So, suddenly an object fell from the sky and fell to Xu Yinyin's feet, scaring Xu Yinyin to the point of horror. As soon as she screamed, several maids and nurses hurriedly protected the three masters in the middle, and retreated again and again.

These are all subconscious reactions.

After backing away, it became clear that what fell from the sky was a wounded pigeon.

Shocked.

Xu Yinyin patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief, and then asked Xi Xin to see if the pigeon was still saved, if it was saved, take it back and bandage it to see if it can survive, if not, find a place for it Dig a hole and bury it, otherwise, it would be so hot and smelly to die here in this hot day, and it would also attract flies. Flies that bit carrion and then flew into the village, thinking about it.

Xi Xin went forward, not afraid, knelt down and looked at the pigeon, saw that it was wounded in the chest and abdomen, there was a big hole, bleeding a lot, I am afraid it would be choking, and carefully lifted the pigeon up , replied in his mouth: "Girl, it hurts badly, it seems to be dying, I'm afraid it can't be saved."

"Then find a place to bury it." Xu Yinyin said.

Xi Xin agreed, helped the pigeon to stand up, but suddenly caught a glimpse of something tied to the right foot of the pigeon, she raised her eyebrows, took the thing off and put it in her arms calmly, and then went to the nearby forest To dig a hole.

Back in Zhuangzi, Xu Yinyin was still washing her face and skin care. Tonight, it was time to make a mask. I mixed the homemade green tea mask with warm water, spread it evenly and thickly on the face, and lay down on the soft couch under the window. The cool breeze poured in, and it was very comfortable.

Xi Xin walked in lightly, walked around to the bottom of the soft couch and took the window support bar, and the window was closed.

Xu Yinyin opened her eyes, "Why close the window? The cool breeze is so comfortable, open it quickly."

Xi Xin put down the pole, went back to the side of the soft couch and squatted down, and mysteriously took out something from her arms, "Girl, this is the thing that was tied to the pigeon's leg just now."

Seeing that it was clearly a small rolled up paper tube, several thoughts flashed through Xu Yinyin's mind.

Flying pigeons pass on letters?Whose homing pigeon is this?Was he injured and fell down while passing here?I wonder if it’s a letter from home or something?
She reached out to take the paper tube, hesitated for a while, whether to read it or not.

After hesitating for a while, I finally chose to open it up and take a look. No matter what it is, it is in front of me. It is better to take a look and have an idea in mind. Otherwise, I will not be able to sleep well tonight.

Read too many novels, read too many conspiracies and tricks, they are all novels!It can't be said that this is an ordinary family letter.

When the paper tube was unfolded, it was about the size of two knuckles, and the writing on it was also very small, the kind that myopia couldn't see clearly. Fortunately, Xu Yinyin's eyesight was pretty good in her life, so she didn't have to make any effort to unfold it. It's clear at a glance.

Seeing this, she frowned slightly.

Just because this note is obviously not a letter from home.

It reads: Zhongyuan Festival Yi Taifang Lotus Lantern.

Hungry Ghost Festival?
Yitaifang—is it the Yitaifang in the outer city of Beijing?

Is this the time and place where friends agreed to meet, or what?

Lotus lantern?Want to release river lanterns together?

As far as she knows, there is a long river in Yitaifang, and every year during the Ghost Festival, people put river lanterns here. On this day, Yitaifang is the busiest and most crowded.

There is still a month to go before the Ghost Festival, since it is an appointment, so that people can send letters in time, but they still use carrier pigeons to send letters——

Xu Yinyin had a faint feeling in her heart that something was wrong.

But there are only a few simple words, and there will be no more, and it is difficult to know what is going on.

It's time to wash off the mask.

She got up, washed her face, wiped it clean, and came out to continue the follow-up skin care.

In such a short period of time, she also has a charter, and asked Xi Xin to burn the note, so let's pretend she didn't see it now.

Perhaps on the day of the Ghost Festival, you can go to Yitai Square and have a look.

Otherwise, based on these few words alone, they would not be able to see anything else, and they would not even know who wrote the note and who it was intended for.

Lotus lamp.

Xu Yinyin secretly kept this point in her heart, wiped her face, and told Xi Xin to go to sleep, then went to bed and lay down.

In a small courtyard somewhere in the capital, a man sitting in the courtyard looked at the darkening sky and shook his head slightly, "It's been two days. It seems that the remaining pigeon will never fly back."

He got up and went into the hut on the left. There were rows of bird cages in the room. In the first cage were two identical pigeons. Then he took out a pigeon with a different color from the cage next to it, and tied it to the same post box. Then he went out of the house, stood in the yard, and released the two pigeons to the east.

After doing this, he walked forward through the moon cave door with his hands behind his back, and entered the study room, where there were two people waiting.

As soon as he entered, the two men immediately got up and stared at him.

He nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The action on the night of the Hungry Ghost Festival must be carefully arranged, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Yes!"

-

Happy days are always hasty, and before they knew it, they had lived in Zhuangzi for seven or eight days.

In the past seven or eight days, they went to Liancheng again, and went to the Qingshan Temple where incense is very popular in Liancheng to burn incense and eat vegetarian meals.

Instead of going for a walk in the city, going to Zhuangzi is cool, which is good for entertainment. Zheng Suyue has learned all kinds of swimming styles, and she is just in high spirits. For several days in a row, she plays mahjong in the morning and swims in the afternoon. She has a good time.

Tian Niangzi pulled out all the stops, including snacks and meals in the morning, afternoon and evening, she made flowers. It was fun to play and eat.

There are also June peaches grown by Zhuangzi, each one is big and crisp, juicy and sweet, and eating one can fill the stomach.

The return journey is about to take place, not to mention Zheng Suyue, Xu Yinyin and Zhang Xiulan also have something to say.

But it's time to go back if I still have more ideas, it's been out for more than ten days, so I don't want to go home.

Mrs. Tian was also reluctant to part with her. Zhuangzi rarely saw her master throughout the whole year. It was not easy for her master to come, and she was about to leave after only living for such a short period of time. She hadn't even done enough cooking.

When the carriage set off, Mrs. Tian and Zhuangtou sent them all the way, and they still pulled the nanny vigorously and whispered that she must have a lot of good words with the master when she goes back, so that she will often come to Zhuangzi in the future.

Xu Yinyin watched, and couldn't help turning her head to joke with Zheng Suyue, "Ms. Tian is so good at cooking, she stayed in the Zhuangzi to be a poor talent, why didn't she be transferred back to the mansion to be a cook?"

Zheng Suyue also thought so, nodded and said: "I think so too, tell my mother when I get back, and ask her to transfer Lady Tian back."

The carriage went all the way, and entered Wangjing Town to rest at noon, had lunch, and rested for a while to avoid the hottest sun, and then continued to set off.

Just after leaving Wangjing Town, we saw a roadblock set up in front of us, making it impossible to pass through here.

From a distance, there was a thatched hut built beside the roadblock, and there were two people dressed as officials sitting in it.

Xu Yinyin asked Zhu Cheng to go forward to find out what happened or what.

Zhu Cheng took the order and went into the shed to inquire with the two officials.

Not long after, he returned to the carriage and said: "County Lord, he said that this official road is under construction and is temporarily closed to traffic. If we want to return to the capital, we can only take the trail over there."

road?

When Xu Yinyin heard this, she came to her senses. Not long ago, she heard from the second princess that the Ministry of Industry had developed cement and was about to start using it in road construction.

Never thought that it would start so soon, and build the official road to the east first?

Why did she think that the main road to the south should be built first, or did several official roads start together?

The roadblocks have all been set up here. Presumably, the road from the capital to the front of here has started to be paved with cement?

Xu Yinyin was faintly excited. At this speed, they might not be able to walk on the concrete road to Licheng when they return to Qingzhou during the Mid-Autumn Festival!

Road construction is a great thing that benefits the country and the people, so let's make a detour!
Xu Yinyin immediately ordered to walk down the path.

Said to be a small road, it can also be used for carriages, but the road is not as smooth as the official road, with weeds and stones, and the carriages are bumpy when driving.

Originally, it was hot and uncomfortable in the middle of the afternoon, but with this jolt, Xu Yinyin felt that the roast duck she ate at noon had returned to her throat.

Zhang Xiulan couldn't bear it at first and wanted to vomit, then Xu Yinyin couldn't hold back, like an infection, and then Zheng Suyue also vomited.

After she vomited and rinsed her mouth, Zhang Xiulan sat on the stone by the side of the road, waved her hands, and refused to get into the carriage again to suffer.

"Better walk, I'd rather walk now."

In the case that riding a car is more painful than walking, it is natural that walking is more enjoyable.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for everyone if we stopped and vomited along the way.

Xu Yinyin nodded numbly, let's go!

Both mother and daughter escaped the famine, but they were hungry, thirsty and hot at that time, and they had to walk forty or fifty miles a day.

At this moment, the body is well maintained, and it is even easier to take a walk.

On the other hand, Zheng Suyue complained of foot pain after walking for a while, she couldn't stand it, and finally got into the carriage with a pale face.

Zhang Xiulan and Xu Yinyin didn't walk for long, they only walked five or six miles, and got into the carriage anyway.

The main reason is seeing that the sun is about to set, this way of walking is too time-consuming, they want to walk and the others follow, and the carriage can't leave them and go quickly.

People from Zheng's family have never walked this trail before, so they don't know where they will pass, and whether there is a place to stay before dark.

Ma Kuan rode a horse and went ahead to explore the road. Not long after, he quickly came back and there was a village ten miles further.

Only the village, it seems that I will only spend the night in the village tonight.

The village is the village, at least there is no need to sleep in the wild to feed mosquitoes.

Xu Yinyin was thinking this way, but before going two or three miles forward, a large group of big men wielding big knives suddenly rushed down from the dense forest on the left, and they came straight towards the carriage.

"There are bandits robbing the road!" The head coachman of the Zheng family shouted out of nowhere with a panicked expression.

Zhu Cheng and Ma Kuan reacted quickly and quickly protected the big white carriage.

Xu Yinyin brought two guards, Zhu Cheng and Ma Kuan, and two coachmen, and the Zheng family accompanied seven or eight guards, but the bandits who rushed down were probably no less than 30 people.

Fortunately, Xu Yinyin still has a big killer.

The heroine Liu dressed in black descended from the sky and rushed into the bandits, pulling out the sword flower with a soft sword in the air, swish, swish, swish.

Xu Yinyin raised the curtain of the car and saw that her blood was surging. These bandits, Miss Liu, are like chopping carrots!
But the sad thing is that there are too many bandits, no matter how fast Miss Liu cuts, there are some fish that slip through the net and rush to the front of the big white carriage. Zhu Cheng and Ma Kuan rush to meet the enemy with their swords.

It was so unlucky that a bandit wanted to pull a back when he was about to die, and when he fell to the ground, he heroically threw the big knife in his hand at Dabai, cutting right on the horse's leg.

Dabai was frightened, he rushed forward without hesitation, the first one threw the coachman to the ground, and with the wild running, the mother and daughter Xu Yinyin and Xi Xin who were on the carriage were thrown back and forth. He couldn't even sit up, let alone subdue Dabai to stop.

This path has a mountain on one side and a cliff on the other. Dabai rushed east and west, and he rushed to the side of the road.

Liu Rumei chased after her vigorously, but she was just one step too late. The moment before she landed on the seat, Dabai's belt made the carriage tilt, and Xu Yinyin, who had been thrown to the edge of the car, was thrown out and fell straight down. up the cliff—

Liu Rumei landed on the car seat, barely holding Dabai, but when she turned around, the three figures had already fallen down and disappeared.
