There were two more people on the way back to Beijing. Baili Nanqing immediately wrote a letter to the capital to stop the Shangguan Song brothers who were originally planning to leave Beijing to pick up people.

One day, the group passed through a forest, surrounded by picturesque scenery and gurgling springs. Shangguan Qingyue excitedly lifted the curtain of the carriage and shouted to the outside:

"Three brothers, let's rest here for two hours before leaving. I really like the scenery here. I want to go to the mountain with my sister to see if I can find any treasures. Hehe..."

Baili Jinlin immediately smiled, and the dimple on his right cheek made him look even cuter.

"My little cousin, you are so interesting. Where did the treasure come from on this mountain? Are you planning to look for ginseng or ganoderma lucidum? This is more difficult than digging out gold!"

Baili Jinheng frowned slightly and said:

"There are many lush vegetation here, and there are too many unknown dangers. Cousin, you'd better not be careless. We will reach the next post station in about two hours. How about holding on a little longer?"

Shangguan Qingyue immediately pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Third cousin, you are too boring. What is there to worry about? Wherever there is a black general, there is danger. You should learn more from your fourth cousin. Aren't you tired of pretending to be mature at such a young age?"

Hearing the compliments from his little cousin, Baili Jinlin looked at his third brother with a smug look on his face, his mouth almost grinning from ear to ear. Baili Jinheng couldn't help but rub his hands, wanting to beat him up!

"We will arrive in the capital in a few days. Cousin, you'd better change your name to Black Wolf. You can't call a general casually.

I'll go with you later."

How could Baili Jinlin and Fu Qiuyang let go of such a good opportunity to spend time together? They both clamored to be together.

"Well, I want to go with you guys. The scenery here is really nice. I'm tired after traveling for so many days. I should stretch my muscles."

Yang Chengping, who had always had little presence, finally found a chance to say something. He flaunted himself like a peacock with its tail spread out, but no one paid any attention to him.

Later on, he fell into self-doubt. Why were all his usual tricks of the past of no use in front of these two sisters?

In the end, Shangguan Qingyue made the final decision:

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements. Everyone, stop arguing."

Seeing that everyone finally quieted down, she continued:

"My two cousins, please accompany us sisters up the mountain. We will be responsible for finding some wild vegetables. Brother Fu and Brother Yang, please go to the stream to find some fish. We will have lunch here. I will prepare delicious food for everyone."

Shangguan Qingyue planned to send Fu Qiuyang away, otherwise his eyes would always be glued to his sister and he would not be able to do anything.

Yang Chengping was unwilling to do so. He only knew how to eat fish that had been caught somewhere. Besides, he had to go into the water. When he thought about it, he wanted to slap himself. It would be better not to get involved!

But they are cousins ​​after all, so it is legitimate for them to accompany them all the way. Even Fu Qiuyang was speechless.

Little Stone took the initiative to take on the task.

"I'm responsible for releasing the donkey Xiaohua. It's been so hard on the journey and hasn't had fresh grass for a long time."

"Then I'll wait for you downstairs and arrange for the servants to build a stove. I'll also try out the tent you made, Yue'er."

Ever since she discovered the mysterious valley in Xiangxue Village, Shangguan Qingyue had begged Li to make her a picnic tent. However, she had never had the chance to use it because she had been too busy.

This time when she went out, she reminded her family early to bring the tent so that they could rest in case they got tired on the way.

When Little Stone heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. He really liked those novel things made by Ruoxi! During this journey, he not only did not feel tired, but was full of energy and expectation all day long.

No wonder Ruoxi always told him that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. It feels so good to go out for a walk!

Here, Shangguan Qingyue tied up her trouser legs and cuffs with cloth strips, gave each person an insect repellent bag to hang on the body, and wrapped her hair with a cloth towel. After dressing up, she looked like a little country girl who was preparing to go up the mountain to chop firewood.

Yang Xiuyun watched from the side, barely able to hide the contempt in her eyes: a pheasant that flew out of the mountains could never turn into a phoenix, and looking at its attire, it was so tacky that it was simply unbearable to look at!

The two sisters both wore green clothes today, and the styles were very similar. The only difference was that one was aqua and the other was ash green.

Baili Jinlin looked at the pair of sisters and couldn't help laughing:

"Are you two planning to play hide-and-seek in the mountains? If you are dressed like this and are hiding on purpose, it will be hard to find you!"

It was true that the speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Shangguan Yunxin almost lost her smile. The reason why the sisters dressed like this was to avoid being discovered!

Shangguan Qingyue grabbed her hand at the right time and squeezed it hard to comfort her.

"Fourth cousin, you don't understand. Our clothes are sister styles, so of course they look good when worn together!

Sister Yang, do you want to join us?"

Although Yang Xiuyun was not interested in catching fish, she was very concerned about the people who caught fish, so she refused very straightforwardly, but felt it was not good, so she explained:

"Well, this is my little brother's first time fishing, so I have to watch him from the side to prevent him from getting hurt accidentally. You two sisters can go and have fun."

After saying that, she did not go directly to the stream, but got into the carriage again and asked the maid to take good care of her. She believed that she had a good appearance, and if she dressed up carefully, she would definitely be eye-catching.

Thinking of Fu Qiuyang's handsome face, Yang Xiuyun couldn't help but feel moved. She said to the maid Qingluo:

"Put some lip balm on my lips, choose the brightest color. And redraw my eyebrows..."

As the series of requests continued, beads of sweat appeared on the busy little maid's forehead and her fingers were cramping.

She was somewhat disapproving in her heart. The two girls from the Shangguan family were almost bare-faced. Wouldn't it be too abrupt for her own young lady to put on such heavy makeup?

As soon as Fang hesitated, he was scolded:

"Qingluo, why are you standing there in a daze? Move faster. If you're late, I'll hold you accountable!"

So, after putting another camellia hairpin in her hair, Yang Xiuyun finally got out of the carriage. On Yang Chengping's side, it was already a disaster scene with everyone in chaos.

Of course there were fish in the stream, but the fish was too slippery and he accidentally fell into the water. In the end, he still failed to catch the lively fish.

On the other hand, although Fu Qiuyang had no experience, he was good at hands-on work. He broke off a tough branch, sharpened one end with a dagger, and after trying three or five times, he successfully pierced a nearly one-foot-long grass carp.

He laughed heartily, "Hahaha, I didn't expect catching fish could be so much fun. I'm a little addicted!"

The fish was pierced by the branch, and perhaps with a last-ditch effort, the fish actually managed to break free, shaking its body and falling from a great height, and happened to hit Yang Xiuyun on the head!

The delicate camellia hairpin fell to the ground, covered with dirt. Her carefully combed hair was now in disarray, even stained with fish blood and scales...

Yang Chengping was anxious, and just as he climbed out of the water, he was accidentally tripped by a fish passing by his feet, splashing a large amount of water all over Yang Xiuyun's body and face.

The delicate makeup was gone, the eyebrow powder and rouge powder mixed together, flowing along the cheeks to the collar. A good face now looked like a female ghost, the scene was too hot to look at.
