Lu Yunqian, who was walking in front, didn't see the look of the little maid behind her, but gave instructions while walking: "Xiao Cui, you don't have to wait on me tonight, go back and pack your luggage, we will leave tomorrow morning .”

"Yes, young mistress." Xiao Cui blessed her body slightly, bid farewell to Lu Yunqian and returned to her room.

After Lu Yunqian returned to the room, she retrieved the jade pendant that she had thrown under the pillow that day, and inspected it carefully by the light.

"I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon. The slap in the face is really fast." Lu Yunqian rested her chin in one hand and held up the jade pendant in the other, curling her lips helplessly while sitting on the stool.

"Tsk tsk tsk, host, does your face still hurt? Do you want me to rub it for you?" System 1203 pretended to be innocent and said to her.

"……"Ugh.

"Who is to blame for this? I said let Zhou Lang go. You didn't seduce me with that experience and asked me to go to Jinzhou to complete the mission. Why do I feel that the trip to Jinzhou is not easy." Lu Yunqian frowned, Find out that something is wrong.

"Why do I feel that you dug a trap for me and waited for me to jump in?" She raised her slender eyebrows and asked.

"Ahem!" System 1203 coughed twice in fright after hearing her slightly perplexed questioning, to relieve its inner panic.

"Of course not, the host thinks too much. It's better to have time to see a doctor." It said.

"see a doctor?"

"Persecution paranoia." System 1203 whispered.

"You're looking for death." Lu Yunqian looked over with sharp eyes that gritted his teeth.

"Don't hit people in the face!" It hurriedly covered its face.

In the evening, all of them played together for a while, Lu Yunqian thought that he would have to go on the next day, so he let it go and went to rest early.

It's good to keep your spirits up.

Early the next morning, Zhou's mother took care of the carriage for her early, and after breakfast, she sent Lu Yunqian to the door.

Tightly holding Lu Yunqian's hand, she gave her instructions over and over again, and after a long time, she still did not let go of her hand.

Lu Yunqian listened to each item with a smile on her face, and nodded with a smile. Seeing the sun gradually coming up, she said to Zhou Mu:

"Don't worry, mother. Don't worry. The journey is not far away. I will arrive tomorrow in a carriage. I will write to you when I arrive in Jinzhou."

Zhou's mother looked at the sun, and knew that there was no longer any delay, so she nodded, "Let's go early, and write a letter first at the rest station in the evening."

Lu Yunqian said hello, said goodbye to Zhou's mother, and took Xiaocui into the carriage.

"Come back early after finishing your work, don't stay outside for too long." Zhou's mother stood under the carriage worriedly and said another sentence when she saw the carriage set off.

"Okay, got it. Mom, go home." Lu Yunqian lifted the curtains of the car and said with a smile.

Lu Yunqian watched Zhou's mother standing at the gate of the Zhou mansion for a long time, knowing that something was out of sight, so she went back home.

"Oh." She put down the curtain and sighed softly.

"It only takes five days to commute back and forth. Adding the errands, it will only take ten days at most. Why is Zhou's mother just like marrying a daughter, and she can't wait to see her off at a ten-mile long pavilion." System 1203 tutted twice upon seeing this.

"Who knows, maybe he really pities Li Xianglan and treats her like his own child."

Her gaze was still on the curtain, and she vaguely remembered an evening not long ago.

That day, she and Zhou's mother had just finished dinner, so they went for a walk in Zhou's small yard to digest food, and heard Zhou's mother say: "My son, we women are involuntary all our lives, so we can only sleep in the inner house. "

He said and patted her hand:

"My child, you have a hard life too. My Dalang was taken away on the day he got married, leaving only our mother and daughter at home to depend on each other. Now I can't control Erlang anymore. Let him go as far as he can, and go outside. It is better to make a career than to follow his brother's path."

"Xiao Huan'er is too young. I'm old and useless. In the future, she will need you, my sister-in-law, to take care of her."

After hearing this, Lu Yunqian felt bad, frowned and quickly stopped: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, we are all here now, mother is full of children and grandchildren, and she will be a blessed person in the future."

As she spoke, she patted her hand lightly: "You are a blessed person, and you will keep good fortune and longevity in the future. Even if you are happy, what are you talking about now?"

Mother Zhou shook her head after listening to her comforting words, smiled but did not speak.

After a long time, Lu Yunqian heard Zhou's mother sigh softly: "I'm old, I can't do it anymore."

She wanted to speak quickly, but Mother Zhou waved her hand to stop her.

Lu Yunqian looked at the young woman with frosty temples and fine lines around her eyes, and felt a little uneasy.

It was Zhou's mother's desolate look in her eyes that scared her.

"Mother, it's better to go back to the house early to rest." She said.

Zhou's mother nodded, and when Lu Yunqian was about to follow, Zhou's mother waved her hand and went back to the house by herself.

Seeing Zhou's mother off like this this time, I feel even more uneasy.

"Eldest young mistress, eldest young mistress?"

While meditating, he was suddenly startled by a melodious and clear female voice.

Lu Yunqian came back to her senses, seeing Xiaocui with a rosy face who seemed to be calling her, she responded: "What's wrong?"

"The coachman said that it looks like it's raining outside. I just took a look, and it's getting dark outside." Xiaocui bit her lip and said.

Hearing this, Lu Yunqian lifted the curtain of the car slightly and looked up at the sky. It really wasn't as sunny as when he just left the house. The sun was shrouded by layers of dark clouds, and there was no glimmer of light.

There was no shadow of the carriage walking on the ground, and the wind was also more urgent than it was in the morning.

After she finished reading, she put down the curtain and said to the coachman, "Master, is there a hotel where we can stay overnight? Otherwise, let's go and have a cup of tea first, and we can leave when the rain stops."

The coachman thought for a while and said: "There is a hotel, but it's still early in the day, if we just wait for the rain to stop, we might not be able to reach the hotel we agreed upon before dark."

Afraid she was not clear, the coachman explained: "Young Mistress doesn't know, I have been walking this road for seven or eight years, and I am quite familiar with the terrain here."

"After passing this village, we arrived at the junction of the Jin and Yao armies. The mountain road there has eighteen bends and the road is steep. People are afraid that there will be troubles in that place. The villagers who lived in the mountain in the past two years have been one after another. After moving, the place is really deserted now."

"There was no one on the way, let alone at night, not to mention being afraid, even if we were met by patrolling soldiers by chance, it is possible that we were directly dealt with as spies. There have been many such people in the past two years .”

"We have to hurry over that mountain range and arrive at the station we told you about last time before we can rest safely."

Lu Yunqian thought for a while, and seeing that the weather was really bad, she said to the coachman, "If not, let's rest at the station in front of here, and there is still time for the road tomorrow."

"Oh, young mistress." Xiaocui who was at the side suddenly stopped her.
