In the afternoon, Luo Fengtang and his party left Hekou Village. At a three-way intersection, they paused.
Zuo Junmo came to the carriage and said to Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing: "We are almost arriving at Zuojiazhuang. Are you two unwilling to turn around and go to my house to sit for a while and have a bowl of tea?"
Luo Fengtang also reined in the reins and looked at Zuo Junmo with a smile, "I am playing the role of a coachman this time. Everything is at Qing'er's discretion."
Zuo Junmo had the urge to roll his eyes.
This boy, the youngest and most promising general in Daqi, has long been famous. In front of this girl Qing'er, he is just like a docile sheep.
Zuo Junmo then focused his attention on the carriage.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted by a white and clean woman's hand, and Yang Ruoqing leaned out half of her body.
She smiled and said to Zuo Junmo: "Brother Zuo, we are ashamed to say that we haven't visited the old lady for a long time."
"There was an accident on this trip. I brought a child back with me, so it was a bit inconvenient..."
Zuo Junmo immediately interrupted Yang Ruoqing: "What's the inconvenience? Dazhi is now the godson of you two. Take him with you to visit my house. My mother likes children best."
Yang Ruoqing said: "This child has just followed us and is a little timid. I'm worried that he will feel uncomfortable."
"When he grows up, and in the first month of next year, I will bring him and the baby together to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady."
After hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Zuo Junmo looked at the little figure lying there asleep in the carriage.
"Okay, I've invited those who should be invited. Since you have your concerns, I won't force you." Zuo Junmo said.
"Next time if you have a chance, you must bring the children and Chen'er to my house as guests!" he said again.
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "I will definitely do it!"
Zuo Junmo glanced in the direction of Huguang County again and said, "Let's go, then I'll take you to the county seat first."
Yang Ruoqing quickly raised her hand to stop, "Brother Zuo, no need."
"We know the way back. You'd better go back to Zuojiazhuang to accompany the old lady. This time when you came back from outside, you didn't even enter your house. After spending two or three days with us, Tang Yazi and I, I feel so sorry..." she said.
Luo Fengtang also nodded quickly in agreement.
Zuo Junmo smiled calmly and said: "Do we still need to talk about these things between us? We are out of touch!"
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other, and both of them smiled.
Zuo Junmo said: "Well, in that case, let's part ways for now. I will go to Wanghai County within the year to see Baobao and Dazhi."
Yang Ruoqing's eyes lit up and she nodded happily, "Okay!"
The two sides parted ways, and Zuo Junmo rode towards Zuojiazhuang, which was ten miles away.
Here, Yang Ruoqing sat back in the carriage and lowered the curtain, while Luo Fengtang whipped up his horse and drove the carriage towards Huguang County...
When the carriage arrived at Huguang County, it was just in time for noon.
Luo Fengtang stopped the carriage and turned to ask Yang Ruoqing in the carriage behind him: "Qing'er, are you and Dazhi hungry? How about we eat something first and then continue on our way?"
In the carriage, Dazhi had already woken up, and Yang Ruoqing was putting on his little shoes.
Hearing his words, she responded happily: "Okay, I guess Dazhi is hungry too. He just ate a small bowl of red bean porridge at dawn."
Moreover, it will take a long time to return to Changping Village. It is estimated that we will not be able to enter the village until dinner time.
Coming from Hekou Village, there were no snacks to relieve the fatigue of Dazhi Road. So I got off the car and went to eat. By the way, I bought some snacks for Dazhi to take with me to kill the boredom on the way.
It's just that I went home a little late.
They found a restaurant, parked the carriage, and the three of them entered the restaurant and asked for a table.
From getting off the carriage to entering the restaurant, Yang Ruoqing held her ambition in her arms.
Luo Fengtang felt sorry for her that she was having a hard time holding the baby, and wanted to change hands several times to let her rest.
However, Dazhi hugged Yang Ruoqing's neck tightly and refused to let go, which made Luo Fengtang helpless and made Yang Ruoqing dumbfounded, but also felt relieved.
"This child is not heavy. Your wife and I also have a lot of strength. He has just left his mother and brothers and he is not yet able to adapt. Let me hold him first and take his time."
She told Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang was considerate and tolerant, so he followed them.
After the three people sat down, Yang Ruoqing coaxed Dazhi and put him on a stool aside.
Then pick up the menu and start ordering.
"Dazhi, do you like eggs? Can my aunt give you some eggs?"
She patiently discussed with Dazhi.
Dazhi looked confused.
"This child, must be almost two years old, doesn't even know what an egg is?" She turned to ask Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang frowned, "It's possible."
Yang Ruoqing felt distressed again, "Forget it, we still can't light the eggs. He still had a fever the day before yesterday."
Then, she ordered Dazhi a dish of minced meat, fried beans, mushrooms and green vegetables.
In addition, she and Luo Fengtang randomly ordered two spicy dishes to eat.
Soon, the delicious and hot food arrived.
Dazhi was so aroused by the fragrance that he stared at the table with his eyes and swallowed saliva with his little mouth.
Yang Ruoqing filled a small bowl of rice, put some vegetables for him, and placed it in front of him.
"Come on, Dazhi, be good, take your chopsticks and spoon and feed yourself," she said.
As expected, Dazhi took the chopsticks in one hand and the spoon in the other and started to feed himself.
The children of the poor have been in charge of the family for a long time. Although they are the same age as Baby Luo, Baby Luo is much more skilled in the eating movements.
Come to think of it, the drunkard's wife has so many children, and underneath her ambition there is a child who is still nursing.
It is impossible to have so much time to feed Dazhi, so the children probably learned the habit of eating independently very early.
Seeing Dazhi eating seriously, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang smiled happily.
"Eat too, hurry up and hurry up after eating, the baby is still waiting for us at home!" Luo Fengtang urged.
Yang Ruoqing nodded without further delay.
After finishing the meal, the three of them left the restaurant. Luo Fengtang went to fetch the carriage, while Yang Ruoqing took Dazhi to a nearby grocery store and weighed some snacks to kill the boredom on Dazhilu.
Along the way, the carriage almost never stopped except for getting off the car to let Dazhi pee or something.
The carriage is well-made and has undergone special improvements. It is very comfortable and spacious for people to sit in the carriage.
The carriage was traveling on the official road, and Luo Fengtang, who was driving the carriage, was very skilled, so the carriage was not bumpy at all.
Dazhi ate and drank enough, peed again, lay on the soft quilt, and felt sleepy again.
