Dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty: Die Luo Chuchen

Chapter 74 Leaving Home Part 2
Besides Mrs. Yao, other aunts also came one after another, expressing their own opinions.Except for Xuelian who was still ill, all the sisters came to see me off.A large group of people surrounded me and sent me to the gate of the house. The carriage outside the gate was ready to go. Ting Lu was talking with her parents. Seeing me coming, she ran over happily. "Mulan, it's time for us to go."

I nodded, looked back, and saw Mrs. Yao nodding and smiling at me with tears in her eyes among the densely packed send-off crowd.Zhang Ying and his wife repeatedly asked Lu to take good care of me. Listening to their earnest words, my heart ached, and I felt like crying.

Mrs. Yao said that I went to the capital to see a famous doctor. Other people knew the real reason why I avoided here, but no one pointed it out.Otherwise, who would rush to a strange place thousands of miles away in a snowy day, and Ting Yu was not among the people who saw him off, probably he didn't want to show up to avoid embarrassment for both parties.Finally, Xiaoqing and I got into the carriage, and Ting Lu flew onto the tall horse. With an order, the team of seven or eight carriages finally set off in a mighty manner.

The people seeing off gradually faded away in the field of vision, Xiaoqing said softly: "I grew up in the Yao Mansion since I was a child, this is the first time I have left Tongcheng, and I feel very sad."

I breathed a sigh of relief, lazily leaning on the cushion and lost in thought.This carriage is much larger than ordinary carriages, and it looks like a miniature bedroom.There are two soft seats at the front and rear of the car, and the area of ​​the soft seat is large enough to be used as a bed for one person to lie on.There is a rectangular long cushion behind me, and there is a Baibaoge at one end of the soft seat, which contains some snacks, needle money and other necessities.Because of the cold weather, there is a thick layer of wool pads under the feet, and a brazier is placed in the middle.Xiaoqing sat opposite, adding charcoal from time to time to make the fire burn hotter.It was icy and snowy outside, but inside the small car was warm and cozy.

Even so, I still felt very cold, and my hands and feet were still cold under the quilt.

With this walk now, at least for a short time, they don't have to face Ting Yu and the others.I opened the curtains, and the bitter air suddenly poured in.Ting Lu was walking in front of the convoy and was chatting with someone. She didn't know what she was talking about, which made him laugh so happily that Lang Lang's laughter could be heard from time to time along the way.Smiling and laughing, he suddenly turned his head and looked behind him, and he was meeting me face to face.He grinned, turned his horse's head and trotted over, and walked with my carriage.

"Mulan, I have to drive in a hurry today, and I might miss Sutou. You've never traveled far before, isn't it a bit unaccustomed to you?"

"It's okay. Going out is better than staying at home. It's just a little cold. By the way, if you get cold, come in and hide for a while."

"Understood, I'll find you a warm bag later, and you'll be warmer if you cover it more." He smiled at me, and drove to the front.This kid, who just wanted to be with me so much, went from extremely sad to extremely excited in just one day, and everyone was infected by his happy mood.With a slight smile on my lips, I was about to close the curtains, when suddenly, my eyes swept to a high place, and someone was standing there on horseback, looking at this side motionlessly. When I saw him, my eyes seemed to be frozen. I can't move.

The distance is far away, so I can't see the person's appearance clearly, but I can still tell it from the figure and posture.I just felt my heart tighten, and then my heart ached.So far away, he still came to deliver...
