"How about you stay at home, I can go to Kyoto alone."
"Brother, I went to Kyoto not just for you to study in the Imperial College. If you are admitted to the imperial examination in the future, there is a half chance that you will stay in Kyoto and serve. I have made plans in advance, even if I am not in Kyoto in the future. It doesn’t matter, there are many rich people there, and the money will definitely be easier to make than in Xinglin Town.”
"Since your sister wants to go with you, let's go together."
The couple didn't agree before, but now they saw that their son didn't agree either, and they felt uncomfortable. What else could Su Sheng say? Of course he agreed.
Next, the Su family got busy and started preparing for the brother and sister to go to Kyoto. In fact, there was nothing to do. Mrs. Lian put down what she was doing and planned to make two sets of clothes for Su Yu and one set for her son. She finished the work in a few days.
As for Su Lao Er, the father and daughter went to Fucheng to buy a carriage. They couldn't go to Kyoto and still take an ox cart. How long would it take?
The horse he bought was not a good horse, and it was enough to pull the carriage. The horse and the carriage totaled fifty-two taels. This time, Su Laoer didn't feel bad at all. After all, he even asked the carriage seller to lean the carriage against it. The back position was widened, which is what I saw on the Yu Zheng family's carriage last time. Although it was a little short, my daughter could lie flat on it and sleep for a while. As for his son, Su Laoer didn't think about it at all.
When Su Yu goes to Kyoto, she plans to take Bai Mo and Er Hu with her. Er Hu is there to guard her home, and Bai Mo is enough when she goes out. As for her eldest brother, when she gets to Kyoto, she will buy him a bookboy. Others have him. The eldest brother is also indispensable. Those who study in the Imperial College are either rich or noble. Although her brother cannot compare with those people, he cannot be much worse than them.
According to the wishes of Su Laoer and his wife, they asked Wang Gang to go with them. If Su Yu didn't do it, she wouldn't be able to rest assured if there was no one in the family who was good at martial arts.
"Father, mother, just listen to me. If there is no one in the family to protect you, how can my eldest brother and I leave in peace?"
Having already talked about this, what else can Su Laoer and his wife say.
"Okay, but daughter, you have never left your father since you were a child. Your father will miss you when you leave."
"Dad, you are such a big man, it seems like you can't live without me, and you are not afraid of making people laugh."
"Others can say whatever they want, but I just can't live without my daughter. If anyone likes jokes, just let them laugh."
Su Yu knew that his father felt bad and that both his children had to leave, but there was nothing he could do about it. But she thought about it, and after she settled there, she took the two of them over and stayed with them. As a family, they always have to be together.
"Dad, when the time comes, you can go to Uncle Gao's house to pick up a puppy and raise it, and let Uncle Wang train it. Uncle Wang has almost learned how to train a dog now."
"I know, don't worry about this. Your Uncle Wang has visited your Uncle Gao's house several times. It's just that his current puppy has only been born a few days ago and he can't hold it until he is weaned."
Alas, if I had known I was leaving, I would have brought one here to raise.
In the past two nights, the family of four had been discussing in the study room. The main thing was that Su Yu said that Su Laoer and his wife listened. In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient and there was no phone or anything. It would take ten days and a half to write a letter at the fastest. When they arrived, Su Yu asked all the questions he could think of. The couple knew how much they weighed, so they listened patiently and nodded during the process.
"Dad, don't be afraid of trouble. If someone comes to our family to cause trouble that you can't solve, just go to Yang Si and he will solve it for you.
Shopkeeper Niu has been transferred to another place, and now the shopkeeper of Taihe Building is Yang Si, but whether it is shopkeeper Niu or Yang Si, as long as the agreement is there, it will make no difference to the Su family.
"I know, my dear, don't worry."
"Mom, if someone bullies you, don't bear it. Now the eldest brother is a scholar, and you are the scholar's mother. There is no reason to suffer others' anger for nothing.
"I know, don't worry."
"If the workers you recruit are disobedient, just quit and hire them again. Don't feel like you're losing face."
What worried Su Yu the most was Mrs. Lian. She was soft-hearted and soft-hearted. She didn't have any independent opinions and was afraid of being bullied by others.
After two days of warning, Su Yu's heart was only half-hearted. She was a person to worry about, but there was no point in worrying anymore. They left immediately.
Before leaving, Su Yu secretly called all the servants in the family together and gave them instructions.
"I don't worry about you doing things at home. I don't have anything to explain. What I'm talking about here are my relatives in my hometown. You don't know this. My father has two eldest brothers, and my grandparents are also there. If one day they Come to the door, no matter what they say, you have to protect this house for me. I will take away all your deeds of sale, and one day they will not be able to do anything to you. You just have to protect my parents and this family. That’s it.”
This is the first time a few people have heard of it, but they all know the girl’s temperament. The girl has said so, so she must be in the category of Mrs. Liu. Otherwise, based on the girl’s temperament, she would get along with everyone in the village except Mrs. Liu. Come.
"Yes, girl."
On the day the brother and sister left, the couple went all the way to the entrance of the village.
"Father, mother, you go back, there are still a lot of things waiting for you to do at home."
"After you leave, your mother and I will go back. Your Uncle Zhao and the others are still at home, so they will be busy."
Su Yu had no choice but to let them do it.
The two of them didn't go back until there was no trace of the carriage anymore.
The brother and sister were sitting in the carriage, Bai Mo was in charge of driving the carriage, Erhu didn't even sit in the carriage, he just ran beside the carriage, very excited.
It took a long time for Su Yu to recover from his depressed mood. Now that July is almost over, he still has to go on the road for a month. They don't dare to delay. They won't go into the city if they can.
It was both the brother and sister's first time to travel far away, so they didn't have any good opinions. Fortunately, it was not Bai Mo's first time to travel abroad. She had a lot of experience in traveling around the world.
"Girl, we're afraid we won't be able to get to the inn tonight, so we can only rest in the wild tonight."
Su Yu lifted the car curtain and sat down next to Bai Mo, looking at the sky outside for a while. Although it wasn't dark yet, the whole sky was overcast.
"I'm afraid it's going to rain today."
"The slave thinks the same thing as the girl."
"It doesn't matter if it rains. Fortunately, we are well prepared."
Su Yu swayed his little feet and observed the situation on the roadside. Soon he saw a big tree beside the road.
"Bai Mo, let's stay there tonight."
"Yes, girl."
Bai Mo parked the carriage under the tree, untied the horse and let it graze beside it. The brother and sister went to pick up some branches from the surroundings, planning to make a fire for cooking later.
Because of Bai Mo's strength, the job of setting up the tent was left to her. Su Yu bought a waterproof tarpaulin at home and asked Zhou to help sew the tent.
