Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

The ox carts were parked outside. Bi Yue took a look and saw that there were 11 people in her grandparents' home, young and old, excluding their married daughter and granddaughter. They could fit in the ox cart easily, so she drove out her own horse-drawn carriage and let her grandparents, as well as her aunt-in-law holding her youngest son, sit in the carriage. The rest of the people sat on the ox cart.

Luo Chen drove the carriage, Bi Yue sat in the carriage, snuggling next to her grandma, and the two carriages sped towards her grandpa's village.

When they arrived at the place, the carriage stopped. Biyue led her grandmother and Luochen supported her grandfather, letting them get off first. Then Biyue helped her aunt and cousin get off. Everyone entered the yard and prepared to go in for a visit.

I saw that my grandma's house has changed a lot in recent years. The living conditions have improved a lot. The original mud house has been rebuilt into a blue brick and tile house.

Grandma and grandpa looked at the new house in front of them, which was built only three years ago, with reluctant expressions on their faces, but for the sake of their granddaughter, they decided to go to Beijing with her. If they didn't go this time, they didn't know when they would see each other again. Even if they closed their eyes next time, they would not have the chance to see their granddaughter again.

Bi Yue walked over, comforted the two old people, and said to them softly, "Grandma and grandpa, I left you a large house with four entrances in the capital. The whole family can live in it. There are pavilions, towers, gardens, and small bridges. It is many times better than this place.

Although I know you are reluctant to let go, you are old now. If you don't go to the capital with me this time, the journey is long, and your granddaughter may not have time to come back to see you in the future. So there is a saying that goes, "If you are willing to let go, you will be willing to let go. How can you get it if you don't want to let go?" Don't worry about it. Your granddaughter will give you a better life. You two old people just wait to enjoy the happiness. "

The two old people seemed to be comforted and laughed heartily. Grandpa said, "I believe my granddaughter is the best. We went to Beijing this time just to enjoy the blessing of her."

The two sat for a while, drank two cups of tea, then said goodbye to grandma, grandpa, uncle, aunt and other relatives, and drove the carriage back to Shuwan Village. The family had been busy with the big move these days.

Bi Yue said to her grandparents, "Put all the things you need to take in one room. I'll put them in my treasure bag. When we get to the capital, we'll take them out. You don't need to carry so many things with you."

Second Aunt said, "Yueyue, we have to sit in the carriage for so long, it's very tiring, maybe we need to rest in the carriage, bring some small quilts or something."

The second uncle looked at him and said, "No need to bring it. Just listen to Yueyue and put some change in your clothes. Then we can make some cakes in the kitchen. They will be delicious on the way."

After arranging these things, the two families were busy with these matters in the next few days, until the morning of the 16th.

Biyue and Luo Chen drove the carriage to their grandmother's house. After getting off the carriage, they walked in. Their belongings were packed and placed in the room. There were too many things, and they were struggling to decide which ones to take with them. They didn't know what to do.

Bi Yue walked in and asked them, "Grandma, aunt, are we going to take all these things to the capital?"

Grandma said, "Yes, these are the good ones. I won't take the bad ones. I sold the house to a family in the village. I am related to their family, so I sold it to them at a low price."

Bi Yue walked in and waved her hand, and all the things disappeared. Grandma and aunt were shocked. Although the eldest uncle and the younger uncle knew in their hearts that this niece was extraordinary, they were also stunned to see him act like this.

After putting everything into the treasure bag, he asked them again, "Is there anything else you want to take? If you don't want to leave anything behind, just take it all with you. This is your belongings that you have worked hard to save over the years. You don't have to carry them yourself. I can put them in my treasure bag for you."

When grandpa and uncle heard this, they quickly took Bi Yue to the backyard and took the hoe and shovel, and even the firewood in the backyard.

Bi Yue agreed with them. After all, the firewood was collected by her uncle and his family in the mountains with great effort, so she gave them everything they wanted to take.

He granted his grandparents' requests, even a blade of grass, and put them all into his treasure bag. Only when he saw that the house was empty did his grandparents smile.

My grandparents and my aunt held my little cousin and got on the horse-drawn carriage, while the others drove the ox cart. Half an hour later, the carriage stopped at the Chen family compound, and my grandma's family was arranged to stay in the yard next door because they were going to set off tomorrow.

After lunch, grandma asked her granddaughter if she wanted to make some pancakes in the afternoon to eat on the road. Biyue told her not to make too many because the weather was hot and eating too many dry pancakes would make her uncomfortable. I will prepare food in every car, so don't worry.

In the afternoon, Tingsong also came back from the provincial capital, and the servants that the family had originally hired, who were unwilling to go to the capital, were also issued documents of freedom, and they would no longer be slaves of the Chen family. Those who did not go to the capital were the families of Tian Liujin and Guan Changqing, who worked in the roast duck restaurant. They jointly bought the restaurant, which was also good. With this restaurant, the two families would not be bad off.

After dinner, all the family members came to the main hall. There were too many people, so the elderly and those holding children sat down, and the others stood and listened to Bi Yue's instructions.

"Grandpa, grandma, grandpa, this time we are going to the capital, we will not take a horse-drawn carriage, but a flying carriage in the sky, so I told you in advance so that you can be prepared. This flying horse carriage flies in the sky during the day.

Land at night, rest in the county or town ahead for one night, and continue on the next day. After all, you will spend the whole day sitting in a carriage. If you fly day and night, some of you, young and old, may not be able to bear it. "

Grandpa spoke first, "Okay, since we are going to Beijing, we will follow Yueyue's arrangements." Grandma and grandpa also agreed.

The younger generations below were amazed when they heard about the flying carriage. They were whispering about it and were looking forward to what tomorrow would be like.

After the meeting, everyone sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air and chat. At this time, the door outside was pushed open.

Around six o'clock in the evening, the governor of Ning'an County, along with his advisor and the judge, and the county magistrate and advisor of Yuanshui County all arrived. They probably received the news a little late, so they hurried over. Everyone stood up. The governor and the county magistrate, seeing Bi Yue, knelt down and greeted her, "Your humble servant, Guan Shaoqun, the governor of Ning'an County, greets Princess Rong'an."

"I am the magistrate of Yuanshui County, Lu Changsheng, and I am here to see Princess Rong'an."

"Your humble servant, Yao Shuting, the magistrate of Lin'an Prefecture, pays respect to Princess Rong'an."

There were also two masters who knelt on the ground and paid their respects to Biyue.

"My three lords, please get up quickly. The two masters, please get up as well. I wonder if you have had dinner since you have come here so late?"

Guan Shaoqun smiled awkwardly at Bi Yue and said, "Your Highness, I rode here with my subordinates after receiving the news. I haven't had dinner yet, but a glass of water and a few cakes will be enough. Don't bother."
