Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 254 Trip to the Capital (2)

The two of them had already put their baggage into the carriage, and now they were standing beside the carriage empty-handed, having a few words.

Chunqiu stood beside the carriage, seeing that the time was almost up, he hurriedly asked the mother in front of him to go back.

"Mother, go back quickly, the Beauty Pavilion is short of manpower, we cannot do without people."

Because the reception on the second floor of the Meiyan Pavilion is all the female relatives of rich families, and their status is very noble, Yuan Shi is not at ease to leave this matter to others, and always stares upstairs alone. Now Chunqiu is watching Her mother had been out for a while, and she couldn't help worrying about the family's business. If someone came from the second floor, what would happen if the shop assistants didn't treat her well.

Obviously, Chunqiu's worries didn't arouse her mother's thoughts at all, Yuan's eyes are now full of villains in front of her eyes, as for the business of Beauty Pavilion, she has long been thrown to the ends of the world by Yuan.

"Qiu'er, it's a long journey. If you encounter any difficulties on the road, don't worry about it alone. Communicate with Mr. Zhou more often, and don't let your mother worry..." Yuan still couldn't help talking, although Yuan shi said this kind of words no less than three times yesterday, but looking at the girl who was about to leave in front of her, Yuan shi still couldn't let go, no, she started to say it again.

Chunqiu also knew that her mother was worried about him, so she held her mother's cold hand silently, breathed on her mother's palm with the corner of her mouth, "Mother, don't worry, there are people from the escort agency following along the way, And we are also taking the official road, nothing will happen." After Chunqiu finished speaking, he raised his head and showed a big smile at her mother.

Yuan pulled out her hands that were covered by Chunqiu, and touched Chunqiu's rosy face with a complicated expression, "Qiu'er, mother knows that you are old and have your own ideas. You should think twice before you encounter anything. The problem, mother hopes that you are safe and sound..." The more Yuan said, the more sad she became, and at the end, her mother seemed to be another old friend she saw through the Spring and Autumn Period, and she started crying on her own.

Chunqiu was taken aback by her mother, and didn't care about her mother's weirdness when she spoke, just thought her mother was reluctant to let her go out alone for the first time.

"Mother, don't cry." Chunqiu took out a clean handkerchief from his arms, handed it to Yuan Shi, and looked at her mother worriedly.

Chunqiu held her mother's hand tightly, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely come back well."

Yuan Shi wiped the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, turned her head and said to Chunqiu, "Look at mother, I think of those things that are there again." He patted the back of Chunqiu's hand, "It's okay, mother is just a little bit reluctant, be careful in everything, let's go"

After Yuan Shi finished speaking, she directly pulled out her hand, and pushed Chunqiu a step forward, "Get in the car quickly, don't let the escorts wait for too long." Yuan Shi waved to Chunqiu while stepping back, her voice raised A few minutes, let Chunqiu hear more clearly.

Chunqiu made a gesture and boarded the carriage, and before going in, he waved seriously to her mother, until her mother left with her back turned, Chunqiu opened the curtain and sat in.

Because Chunqiu is a girl, he owns a carriage to himself. Zhou Huaiyan and the boy sit on the carriage on Chunqiu's left. The wooden box containing medicinal materials was sent to the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau by Zhou Huaiyan three days ago. Just rush to the gate of Linfang County and meet up with the escorts directly.

"Brother, you can go." Chunqiu lifted the curtain beside him, said to the carriage next door, then put down the curtain again, took out the blanket beside him, and Chunqiu spread the blanket on himself, because last night Because she didn't sleep well, Chunqiu's spirit was still sleepy, so she wanted to take advantage of the time when the carriage was on its way to catch up on a good night's sleep.

The carriage moved slowly, Chunqiu himself found a comfortable corner on the carriage, tilted his head and leaned against his burden, Chunqiu was still covered with a blanket, closed his eyes, and gradually fell asleep...

Chunqiu fell asleep, but Zhou Huaiyan was in a tense state, and Qingsong looked at the serious and handsome face of his young master, a little confused.

"Master, the carriage has already left, but what is left behind?"

Qingsong was thinking about the things he brought in the carriage when he went out today, and carefully pondered whether he really forgot something.

Zhou Huaiyan shook his head, "No, it's about the medicinal materials. Before leaving last night, Dad specifically told me that the journey to the capital this time may not be easy."

Zhou Huaiyan's face remained unchanged, but he was a little annoyed. Thinking of the scene of his father suddenly breaking into the room last night, especially his father still had a frowning expression, Zhou Huaiyan's eyes were dim, and he couldn't help but feel irritable. What he said before It's too early, and now I regret bringing Chunqiu. It's not that I dislike Chunqiu's troubles, but I'm worried that this time will cast a shadow on Chunqiu. After all...the medicinal materials they sent to the capital this time are very precious.

"Qingsong, if there is any problem on the road, you tell Qingfeng, you must protect your junior sister," Zhou Huaiyan ordered with a cold expression.

"Yes, I understand," Qingsong replied without asking why.

The carriage immediately left Linfang, and finally stopped slowly in a small forest not far from Linfang County.

"Young Master, Master Wang from the Zhenyuan Security Bureau is here." Hearing the voice from outside the carriage, Zhou Huaiyan responded, and then let Qingsong get off the carriage.

"Master Wang, it's a long way to go to the capital, and I hope the master will take care of you." Zhou Huaiyan got out of the carriage, and went straight to a middle-aged strong man with a beard and a big waist, and bowed his hands earnestly.

The strong man followed suit, and then the rough and honest voice rang out, "Hehe, Master Zhou doesn't need to be too polite. Wang is entrusted by Zhou's genius doctor, and he will do his best on this mission. Please rest assured, Master Zhou."

"Well, Master Wang must have received news from my father. Huaiyan doesn't need to say much here. I'll leave everything to everyone in the Zhenyuan Security Bureau." After Zhou Huaiyan finished speaking, he gave a big gift to more than 20 people not far away.

A burst of voices of "dare not" and "polite" came from around those people. Zhou Huaiyan smiled, nodded to Master Wang at the side, and then returned to the carriage again.

"Okay, hurry up, we must leave Linfang before dark." Master Wang waved his hand, interrupting the constant noise in front of him.

The carriage is in front, the escort cart is behind, and the escort cart with the word "Zhenyuan" dart flag stuck in the iron box slowly sets off behind the carriage. Wherever it goes, dust and smoke are billowing. Master Wang rides a tall horse with the accompanying two Master walks at the end of the bodyguard car, and needs to pay attention to the surrounding environment from time to time, because the news received last night, the original bodyguard silver has also doubled, and Master Wang also knows what this bodyguard means, so Ever since he played Linfang, he has not dared to be ambiguous, staring sharply at the surrounding plants and trees, making the two escorts behind him shudder...
