Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 229 Arrival
"I don't know how much I should believe in what you said. You can make up your own mind!" Yao Cunhui glanced at her and calmed down a lot.

From Xu Wanzhu's standpoint, she naturally hated herself, and it was understandable for her to punish herself when the right opportunity came up.After this incident, the settlement between the two, even between her and her sister Yao Cunjia, was completely resolved, which is not a bad thing!It's better than a time bomb hanging overhead from time to time, and it may explode at any time.

"Thank you!" Xu Wanzhu glanced at her gratefully, and said in a low voice, "I'm not going back to Jiangnan. I didn't lie to you, after I escaped from the human traffickers, it was Brother Du who saved my life...Jiangnan, I can't go back either!"

Thinking of the news that the head of the family inquired for her, the head of the Xu clan pressured her parents to announce that she had died of a serious illness, Xu Wanzhu's heart darkened, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Who would want a daughter who ran away from home alone for a year!Jiangnan, she will never go back!There is no place for her beside her parents!The boudoir of the past must have been locked long ago.

Hearing what she said, the head of the family immediately relaxed, raised his eyelids, and glanced at her with joy and tenderness.

"That being the case, let's say goodbye here! Take care!" Yao Cunhui didn't say any more, and bowed to her.

"Take care too!" Xu Wanzhu smiled, bowed back, and then said with some hesitation: "Hui'er, then, the antidote—"

Yao Cunhui glanced at her with a half-smile, Xu Wanzhu was embarrassed by her, she avoided her eyes in embarrassment, then raised her eyes to look at her calmly, clasped his fists and said, "Hui'er, I will remember your kindness!"

"Wan'er!" The head of the family stepped forward, pulled Xu Wanzhu, stood in front of her, raised his eyebrows and stared at Yao Cunhui, without saying a word.It seemed that Xu Wanzhu begged Yao Cunhui unexpectedly.

Yao Cunhui couldn't help but secretly amused, it could be seen that this big boss really loved Xu Wanzhu.He will accompany Xu Wanzhu's absurd nonsense, as long as she is happy, he doesn't care about anything else.

"We can figure out the antidote on our own, let's go!" The boss couldn't see Xu Wanzhu begging for help, especially for himself.If it wasn't for his negligence, how could Yao Cunhui, a weak woman, succeed?

"Hui'er!" Xu Wanzhu glared at the head, but still begged Yao Cunhui.

"Take it!" Yao Cunhui smiled silently, took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it to the head, with a light glance in his eyes, he said with a smile, "I wonder if saying 'congratulations' is outdated at this time?"

The head of the family was startled, then smiled and said: "Not out of date, not out of date, just right, just right! Miss Yao, thank you very much!"

Xu Wanzhu's face flushed, she turned her head and gave him a hard look, and let out a low snort in her nostrils.The head of the family chuckled, and gave Xu Wanzhu a flattering look, his eyes and expressions were full of doting.

Yao Cunhui bit her lips and said with a smile: "Cousin hasn't introduced me to the name of the head of the family yet!"

"Under Du Zhong, Miss Yao is being polite!" the head of the family said without waiting for Xu Wanzhu to answer.

"Master Du!" Yao Cunhui bowed to him and said with a smile, "Cousin Wan'er will be handed over to you. Master Du must not let her down!"

Yao Cunhui couldn't help but a ray of pity flashed across her heart, Xu Wanzhu could be said to have nothing but Du Zhong's love, if Du Zhong failed her, she wouldn't even have a place to complain about her grievances!
"That's natural!" Du Zhong raised his thick eyebrows, lifted his chin, and smiled resolutely.

"Hui'er, I really don't know what to say to you, take care all the way!" Xu Wanzhu still felt sorry.

"I have my own way of doing things, don't worry." Yao Cunhui smiled, and after a few gossips, the two parties parted ways and bid farewell.

Watching Yao Cunhui disappear before his eyes, Du Zhong tightened the cloak on Xu Wanzhu's body, hugged her carefully and said, "Wan'er, the night is cool, let's go back!"

Xu Wanzhu turned around from her daze, and nodded slightly at him.

"The horse is ahead, let's go!" Du Zhong was happy, his deep eyes lit up, and Da Heng hugged Xu Wanzhu.

"Don't! Your injury—"

"It's okay! Don't move!" Du Zhong smiled, holding Xu Wanzhu tightly with his iron-like arms.

Xu Wanzhu smiled, wrapped his neck softly, gently pressed her face against the lapel of his chest, and slightly closed her eyes.

This man is really very good to her, she chose it herself, that's it, even if he is reckless, she will recognize him!
"Tomorrow, we will enter Luntai. Tonight, let's take a good rest and go to the city tomorrow!" Standing on a high gravel hillside, looking into the distance, Master Lu raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, chattering and talking.

Luntai was the rear base of the Western Expeditionary Army, and the mission was completed when the food was delivered to Luntai.The hard work along the way was finally worth it.

Yao Cunhui set up a pergola and looked ahead. The ridges are thick and still rolling. The sky is surprisingly high. The vast mountains are like a giant dragon crossing the earth.A feeling of admiration for grand and great things arises spontaneously from the heart.

Yao Cunhui's eyes searched for the other side of the mountain across thousands of mountains and ridges, across the boundless sky.On the other side of the mountain, there is someone she misses all the time!

This is the land on which he built his legacy and the battleground on which their future will be built.

Yao Cunhui suddenly felt a little scared, afraid of seeing him, and didn't dare to think about what it would be like when the two met!

In the early morning of the next day, the group started walking and continued on their way.This day is different than usual, everyone is a bit different.The clothes, shoes and socks are clean and neat, and the hair is carefully combed and tied with a hair tie.What's more obvious is that kind of expression from the inside out, that kind of vigorous spirit, everyone has a smile on their brows and eyes, their eyes are bright, and when they think of the destination they are about to arrive, they seem to be full of vitality. It has endless power.

Only Yao Cunhui felt uneasy, and his footsteps became a little stagnant, as heavy as lead.

"Miss, are you feeling unwell? Or, servants, please ask shopkeeper Lin and the others to find a carriage?" Xiaoli glanced at Yao Cunhui's changing expression, and couldn't help but worry.

Scattered houses have appeared in this area, and occasionally a small-scale village will be encountered, and the roads are much better than before. It is not difficult to find a carriage.

"I'm fine!" Yao Cunhui quickly restrained his expression and forced a smile.No matter how unwell she was along the way, she insisted that she was the same as everyone else, and she did not do anything special.

"Is it really not necessary? The servant girl sees that the lady's face is very bad!" Xiao Li worried.

"How could it be!" Yao Cunhui was surprised, was her expression so obvious!

"It's all right!" Yao Cunhui coughed lightly, and said with a smile, "Maybe, I'm a little excited."

Xiaoli looked over suspiciously, and Yao Cunhui faced each other calmly. Xiaoli saw that her eyes were clear, her lips were pursed, and her expression was fine, so she was relieved, nodded in agreement and smiled: "That's right! We finally came here along the way. Already!"

When the young lady said this, she couldn't help but feel a little turmoil in her heart. It's no wonder that the young lady's emotions were out of control.

The army in Luntai City had already heard the news that the grain transport team arrived today. Yao Cunhui and his party climbed over a mountain ridge, and from a distance they saw a group of soldiers standing upright in the desert loess, waiting for their arrival.

The crowd couldn't help waving their arms and cheering. When the group of soldiers saw it, there was a commotion and they greeted them.

"Brother Lu!"

"You've worked hard!"

"Looking forward to the day and looking forward to the night has brought you here!"

"This is the shopkeeper of the Yao family, right? Nice to meet you! Uh, hello, Ms. Yao, here is a poor place, I have wronged Ms. Yao!"

"It's been peaceful all the way! It's been hard work!"

The two sides met and greeted each other, and the people from the military camp quickly stepped forward to take over the grain cart, which made it easy for Yao Cunhui and his party to relax. They went back to Luntai City while chatting and laughing.

Among the soldiers and officers who came to greet him, there was no figure of Shen Quan. After Yao Cunhui couldn't help but glance over his searching eyes, his eyes could not help but dimmed slightly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he didn't come, otherwise, she would have to wait for a while. If you can't control it and let people see the clues, it will be a disaster.

"The conditions here are no better than those in the capital, and the climate is also unpredictable. I'm afraid I'm going to wrong Miss Yao!" A woman named Yun Xiaodie spoke.Wearing an emerald green shirt, she was two or three years older than Yao Cunhui, with slightly dark skin, but a very delicate appearance, a pair of black eyes shining, thick eyebrows raised slightly when speaking, full of heroism.

"Miss Yun, you're being polite! I'm in good health, it's okay! I don't want to cause you any trouble!" Yao Cunhui laughed.

Yun Xiaodie giggled, held Yao Cunhui's wrist and squeezed it vigorously, and said with an intimate and hearty smile: "No trouble, no trouble! Miss Yao can just call me Xiaodie, I can't afford to be a miss ! You really don’t give in to a woman, I never thought there would be a rich girl like you in the capital!”

Yao Cunhui couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, the heroic spirit of the border women was indeed incomparable to other places.She felt warm in her heart, smiled and said politely: "Don't call me Miss Yao, just call me Xiaohui!"

"Then I won't be polite, Xiaohui!" Yun Xiaodie immediately called out generously, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"The accommodation in the city has been arranged. When you go back later, you should freshen up and have a good rest. The journey must have been hard!"

"Thank you! Now that I'm here, I'm not being polite, I just follow your arrangement." Yao Cunhui smiled.

"You're being polite!" Yun Xiaodie tilted her head and stared at Yao Cunhui with a smile, a complex look flashed across her eyes.

Yao Cunhui smiled and went into the city with her.
