I don't know if Wei Xiting wants to sell them out for Su Mingshan's sake.
The Xie family said they would leave on November 1, and they would not be able to follow the caravan at that time. He immediately said that the caravan had something to do and had to leave early.
Even if they don't mention it, he will talk about it first.
On November 1, just as the sky was getting bright, Su Mingshan's carriage arrived at Xie's house.
Before Su Lan could knock on the door, the door of Xie's house opened from the inside, and two carriages walked out.
The first ones were those of Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi, followed closely by those of Caiwei Qingsha and Grandma Ou.
Li Dachang was driving the carriage the couple was riding in, while Li Tai was sitting on the shaft.
Caiwei and Qingsha's carriage was given by the Su family, and the driver was Uncle Fang.
Su Mingshan first called Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi, Sister Li and brother-in-law, then looked at the carriage behind and shouted: "Caiwei!"
When Caiwei heard her master's voice, her eyes lit up a lot.
Su Mingshan really loved Caiwei. After the little girl got into her carriage, she asked Sulan to sit outside the carriage while she lowered the curtain.
When the light dimmed, she took out a large bundle from the hidden compartment.
"Caiwei, here are four pairs of winter clothes, made of fine Shu brocade. You and your sister each have two sets. The capital is colder than ours, so you will be able to wear these clothes when you arrive. I guess your mother will Take your sisters to be guests at Zhenguo Hou Mansion. When the time comes, you and your sister will wear these clothes. Caiwei, remember, the world always respects people first and then others. You and your sister dress well and go out , no one will think that you are poor relatives here to catch the autumn wind, do you understand?"
Caiwei nodded: "Yes, Master, I know, Grandma Ou said it!"
"It's good to know! No matter how good your relationship with Mrs. Hou is, or what kind of existence she is in the Hou family, she is still a concubine. Your cousin Caijing, no matter how good her reputation is, she is still a concubine. Women. So, hello, they will also be proud of you. This is called prosperity and prosperity. In the same way, because you have relatives in the Hou family, ordinary people will look up to you. "
Su Mingshan said, taking off the extra belt from her waist and stuffing it into Caiwei's hand.
"This belt is full of silver notes, including ten taels, fifty taels and one hundred taels. There are a thousand taels in total. The master wrapped it in oil paper and sewed it in last night. Caiwei, remember, poor families Fu Lu, this money is the emergency money Master gave you, you can’t shirk it.”
When Caiwei heard this, she felt that the light belt in her hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
She wanted to give it back, but looking at her master's firm eyes, she pursed her lips and nodded with tears in her eyes.
"good!"
Seeing her accept it, Su Mingshan smiled and touched her head, unable to hide her reluctance.
"Master won't be going to the capital in a short period of time, and you won't be able to come back. From now on, we don't know when we, master and disciple, will see each other again."
When Caiwei heard this, she stretched out her hands to hold her waist, buried her head in her arms, and sobbed softly.
Su Mingshan's eyes were also shining with tears. She blinked hard, took a deep breath, then smiled and helped her up, and took out her embroidered handkerchief to wipe away her tears.
"Don't cry. If you have time in the future and miss Master, just send a letter back. Then Master will tell your mother that as long as your mother agrees, Master will ask your master to find a way to pick you up. But you are still young, With such outstanding appearance, Master is really worried."
Su Mingshan said, sighing quietly in her heart.
If she hadn't agreed with Chen Hao that this would be the case, and if she hadn't wanted Wei Xiting to think too much, she could have run to the capital when she had time.
But she didn't want Chen Hao's wife to misunderstand her in the future, and she didn't want Wei Xiting to think too much about it, so she decided not to go.
In addition, after getting married, she also had to prepare to have children.
No matter what, the Su family must have an heir!
Do the math, she really won't be able to go to the capital in a short period of time...
When Caiwei heard her worried words, she said with a stubborn face: "Master, when I go out now, I am just an ordinary little girl! When I am older, I can come back to see you."
Su Mingshan looked at the eyes that were too lively because of crying, smiled and nodded.
"Okay, Master is waiting for you!"
The carriage moved very fast, and while the master and apprentice were talking, they had arrived outside the city.
At this time, the people in the third room of the Li family had arrived. They didn't bring much luggage, only some clothes and bedding that were relatively new, and Li Zheng's books.
It is not an exaggeration to say that they traveled in simple clothes.
As for Ying Lei and Doctor Xue, the grandson and grandson, they arrived earlier than the third member of the Li family.
It's just that the grandfather and grandson didn't look like they were going to Beijing to take the exam at all.
The expressions of the two of them were extremely solemn, as if they were going to do something important.
Even their coachman had the same expression.
Li Yuan packed everything in her home that could fit into the space.
There were some things left to take, which were stuffed into the carriage where she and Xie Yanzhi were sitting.
Originally, she planned to arrange for people in the third room to squeeze in with them.
But Wei Xiting said that the goods transported by the caravan this time were not too many, and if they were squeezed in, one car could be used by three people.
Since Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi decided to accept each other's kindness, they would not refuse it on this trivial matter.
No one wasted much time, and as they set off, the sun was rising in the east.
The golden sunshine shines on the earth, as if it has covered the mountains and rivers with a layer of gorgeous clouds.
Su Mingshan, who was standing there, looked at this scene as if she had seen their dazzling life.
Sulan saw her young lady staring into the distance in a daze, and shouted softly: "Miss, it's still early, should we go back home?"
Su Mingshan took a fancy to a textile mill next to the dock in Linfeng County.
She originally wanted to go there after seeing off Li Yuan, but she suddenly lost her mood.
"Go back home!"
Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Su Lan didn't say anything. She just supported the person and silently got into the carriage.
She thought that with how much her young lady loved Miss Caiwei, she might have to wait a while.
*
If the land route from Xinyang Mansion to Beijing goes well, it will only take half a month.
However, Li Yuan and the others traveled with the caravan, and there were many people and children.
We all walked and stopped along the way, rushing during the day and trying our best not to sleep outdoors at night.
In this way, it took twenty-two days.
By the time they arrived at the boundary of the capital, it was already the third day of October.
Wei Xiting's motorcade did not send them into the city, but said goodbye to everyone at the farewell pavilion outside the city.
As soon as his caravan left, Ying Lei's grandparents also said goodbye.
Both Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi knew that Ying Lei's family was from the capital, and their departure was expected.
I just didn't expect that Wei Xiting would be so well-informed.
Yes, Wei Xiting's information should be well informed.
He knew that Chen Hao had sent someone to pick them up at the farewell pavilion, so he said goodbye here.
Not long after everyone left, a familiar voice came from not far away.
"Brother Xie, sister-in-law?"
Li Yuan suddenly heard Chen Wu's voice and couldn't react for a while.
