Chapter 917: Departure

Sitting on it, Qian Shi said: "Isn't it just food and lodging, you are all young men, just bring a few more quilts, and we will make dry food for you at no cost."

He said again: "When you arrive in the capital, if the shop doesn't make much money, you can look for it to see if you have the strength to work. You can support yourself first. When the summer harvest ends at home and you have money, we will send you some."

Old Zhou felt something was wrong, "Isn't it to make money, why do you have to add money to it?"

Zhou Dalang and his brothers thought it was normal, and said, "Father, you have to put seeds into the land first, and you have to spend money to buy a piece of land. It must be the same in business."

Qian glanced at him and said, "Your sons are more open-minded than you."

Old Zhou Tou: ...

After the matter was settled, Qian Shi saw that Man Bao was already yawning, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, go back to sleep, pack Man Bao's luggage tomorrow, and get ready to go."

Everyone agrees.

In fact, Xiaoqian was the busiest, and the others were not very helpful.

Man Bao can pack the books, clothes and other things by himself, but Zhou Wulang and the others have fewer things to pack, and they can pack them in half a day.

On the other hand, Xiaoqian, she hated Manbao and the others to endure hardships on the road, so she had to put in all her effort to prepare some delicious and easy-to-carry food for them, and she also had to marinate some things for them to eat in the capital.

In the end, a bunch of things were packed, and the old Zhou family saw so many things, Qian said: "Buy a mule, it's hardworking and strong enough."

Zhou Dalang and Tuesday Lang went to the county seat, bought a mule and a cart and came back.

But it's not easy to carry so many things, after all, there are people in the car, right?

Just when Lao Zhou was thinking about whether to drive out the family's ox cart, Bai Shan brought the servants of the Bai family to the door, "...the family specially hired several mule carts to load things, these boxes and so on It’s not easy to sit in the carriage, so it’s better to put them on the cart.”

Then he said to Man Bao: "Let's sit together, and we can talk about homework on the way."

Man Bao nodded repeatedly.

Talking about homework is a ghost, three people sat in a car, opened all the windows and fixed them, then raised the curtains, and then began to lie on the edge of the window and look at the outside world. The sorrow of leaving just now was completely forgotten.

Just thinking about their going to the capital, the three of them were extremely excited. Even though the road ahead was full of dangers, the three of them were full of fighting spirit and extremely happy.

Mr. Zhuang obviously felt their excitement sitting in the rear carriage, and couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.

Mr. Zhuang's carriage was driven by Zhou Liulang, and Wuwulang followed behind with his own mule cart. The big ones, Ertou and Erya were also lying on the window of the car and looking out, obviously it was the familiar road into the county town. , obviously having seen the scenery countless times, the three of them also found it very novel, and felt that today's flowers were especially beautiful.

As for the capital city, it sounds huge and prosperous.

When they arrived in Luojiang County, they wanted to enter through the city gate on one side and go out through the city gate on the other side. Yang Heshu specially asked people to watch on the road, and went back to inform him when they saw them arrive.

Yang Heshu had two boxes brought out, along with a letter and a gift list, "I prepared these two boxes for my relatives and friends in Beijing. When you arrive in Beijing, please help me deliver them to your home."

Bai Shan responded and asked his servants to tie the box to the car.

Yang Heshu only exchanged a few words with Mr. Zhuang, then turned his head to look at Bai Shan and the others, sighed slightly, then patted their shoulders and said, "When you go to the capital, keep a low profile and bear it if you can."

Man Bao said: "I heard that the capital is very scary."

Yang Heshu smiled and said, "It's not easy anyway."

Bai Shan nodded solemnly and said: "We have all written it down, we will be careful."

He turned his head and glanced at the two friends beside him, and said solemnly again: "I will watch them."

Man Bao and Bai Erlang couldn't help but cut out, "Whoever looks at it is not sure."

Yang Heshu smiled, took a step back and said, "Let's set off as soon as possible, or we won't be able to make it to Sutou in the evening."

Cui Shi also came together, and she asked someone to prepare two food boxes, and took a box to Man Bao, "I also have a letter here, you are new to the capital, if you feel bored, you can go to my sister to play, I have a cousin who is twelve in the family and is about the same age as you."

Man Bao accepted it gratefully, and the three bid farewell to Yang Heshu and Cui Shi.

After getting back into the car, the group of people felt a little sad, "I don't know if I can go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Daji, who is driving outside the car: ... It's already June 18th, and it will be almost July when they arrive in the capital slowly, and then they will stay for a month before coming back for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and finally go to Beijing again?

How busy are they?

It's better for Bai Shan to be more sober, "We are going to study in the Imperial College, the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is not enough for us to go home, right?"

Bai Erlang: "Then can I go home for Chinese New Year?"

After some calculations, Man Bao said, "It should be fine."

But Bai Shan said: "I think it's too much, otherwise why did my father bring my grandmother with him when he went to study in the capital? Longzhou is closer to the capital than Mianzhou."

Only then did Man Bao think of another question, and said with a "huh": "Grandmother Liu and the others are also going to Beijing, so your home will be in the capital after that? You don't have to worry about going back to Qili Village."

Man Bao and Bai Erlang waited for Bai Shan with the expression "You betrayed us".

After Bai Shan was silent for a while, he decided to hurt each other with Man Bao, "Didn't your brothers and nephews also go to the capital? Your family has more people than mine."

Man Bao thought so too.

Bai Erlang stared at them.

The two were a little guilty, but they seemed to have thought of something, and looked at him together, "Isn't your elder brother also in the capital?"

Bai Erlang stared slightly, and then remembered this, "Yeah, my elder brother seems to be in the capital."

Bai Shan and Man Bao: ...

Bai Erlang clapped his hands angrily and said, "It's over, I forgot to bring something for my elder brother."

Man Bao and Bai Shan reluctantly comforted him, "It's okay, when you get off the car at the next place and buy something casually, just say you brought it from home."

"is this okay?"

Bai Shandao: "It's better than going empty-handed, right?"

When he was taking a break at noon, Bai Erlang went to ask Gao Cheng Gao Song, the manager who came with him this time, "I'm going to buy something for my brother at the next place."

Gao Song quickly asked, "What does the Second Young Master want to buy for the Eldest Young Master?"

Bai Erlang said distressedly: "I don't know, but I have to bring something for elder brother when I go home, right?"

Only then did Gao Song understand, and he paused for a long time before he said, "Second Young Master, less than half of the things on our car are for Eldest Young Master, don't you know?"

Now it was Bai Erlang's turn to be surprised, "I don't know, and no one told me?"

The old lady Bai of Qili Village watched the carriage go away, and then turned around with the corners of her eyes pressed, "The two children have traveled far away now, my heart is empty."

Master Bai suddenly clapped his hands and remembered, "Oh no, I forgot to tell that kid what was in the car for his elder brother. Don't cause trouble on the way."

The next update will be around 8pm
