Zuo Zheng pursed his lips as he looked at Zhao Xu's back, then looked at Lu Mingyun, "When are we leaving?"
"......" Lu Mingyun pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a headache. "Let's take care of things here first. It will take at least three or four days."
Zuo Zheng said helplessly, "Then won't your birthday be spent on the road?"
Lu Mingyun smiled and said, "It's already this late, who cares whether or not to celebrate birthdays? Besides, traveling in the middle of winter is very dangerous."
Li Mofu's face didn't look very good either. He didn't really want to go back to the capital. If possible, he would naturally want to continue staying in Su County.
"Okay, I'll go clean it up." Zuo Zheng said.
When there was no one in the side hall, Li Mofu was about to speak when he was stopped by Lu Mingyun.
"You must come with me." Lu Mingyun seemed to know what was in Li Mofu's heart and stopped him before he could even open his mouth.
Li Mofu pouted speechlessly, "I'm not going, you go back by yourself."
"You're not going?" Lu Mingyun sat down next to Li Mofu. "Why don't you go? Do you have a lover here?"
Li Mofu frowned and looked at Lu Mingyun in surprise, "Little brother, please don't make such jokes at this time, okay?"
"Then don't make such jokes." Lu Mingyun said.
Li Mofu pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to go back to the capital with you. The journey is long, and there will be a lot of troubles and it will be dangerous."
"No, I swear, as long as I'm alive, I will protect you." Lu Mingyun said.
Li Mofu rolled his eyes in disgust and said, "Forget it."
"It will only be more dangerous if you stay here." Lu Mingyun said again.
Li Mofu thought for a moment and asked, "What about my cat?"
"Take them back together." Lu Mingyun said.
"What if he dies on the road?" Li Mofu frowned.
"No, it's cold so you can't walk fast. Just be more careful on the road." Lu Mingyun said.
Of course, Li Mofu also knew that the possibility of him staying was very small. After all, he was still Lu Mingyun's "weakness". However, his sudden return to Beijing this time made it hard not to think too much.
Since the weather turned cold, the business in the store has been very good because the prices are reasonable and the food is spicy and warming, so many customers came, and Li Mofu finally made some money.
However, because he had to return to the capital, in order to prevent the store from closing down in his absence, Li Mofu had to leave an extra 200 taels of silver to prepare for any unexpected events, and he did not take a single cent of the money in the store.
It turns out that doing business is really difficult. Who is actually making money?
After finishing the business in the store, Li Mofu began to pack up the cats' things, including Daju and Xiaoque's favorite toys, their warm nests, small clothes to prevent them from getting cold when moving around, and so on.
Li Mofu felt that the longer he raised these two silly little cats, the more reluctant he became to part with them. If it were in the past, it didn't matter where they went, and he would just think that it was fate when they died.
Now, I don’t want to go anywhere. Traveling far is the worst thing. I’m afraid I’ll die in front of these two cats.
An indecisive person like him should not have any worries. Once he has them, he will be bound to where he is and will come back on his own even if he goes too far.
Just as Lu Mingyun expected, on the third day, he had taken care of his own affairs and the convoy back to Beijing was ready. On the morning of the fourth day, everyone had breakfast, put on their coats, and got on the car to set off back to Beijing.
The day of departure was the beginning of December. When they were halfway there, it was Lu Mingyun's birthday. They shared a roasted chicken in the tent, which they had caught in the snow during the day. Although the meal was perfunctory, everyone was smiling, and the silent and depressing journey back to Beijing also dispelled half of the sorrow.
Li Mofu and Guozi rode in a carriage along the way. There were two quilts in the carriage and another layer of cover. Even so, Li Mofu was afraid that the two cats could not bear it.
Because they had to hurry, they could only stay in the carriage except for stopping to eat. At first, the two kittens were very curious about the carriage, but they got bored of it after a long time. In addition, they were a little listless because of the small range of activities.
