Early the next morning, the Yuan family had already gotten up and was waiting at the door.

This morning was the day that the Lu family left Lihua Village, which made the Yuan family feel particularly surprised.

They had come to Lihua Village together and had long regarded the Lu family as their own relatives. When the Yuan family suddenly received the news that they were leaving Lihua Village yesterday, they really couldn't accept it for a while.

In the morning, they got up early and started working in the kitchen.

Ye Wan kneaded the dough, Shen Chulan braised the meat, and Old Lady Liu made the fire.

The men of the Yuan family were killing a wild boar in the kitchen yard.

Xiao Hei couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran to the back mountain to catch this wild boar.

The Yuan family was waiting at the door, carrying large baskets full of food.

There are roujiamo, braised pig's trotters, braised pork, flatbread, meat buns, and steamed buns.

There are also spicy diced rabbit, spicy chicken, spicy fried pork liver... These are all Lu Jiu's favorites.

The Yuan family also stewed a big pot of pork ribs soup.

Now that the weather is cold, these can be kept for a long time and can be heated up when you want to eat them.

Ah Li was sitting on the shaft of the carriage. Seeing the entire Yuan family waiting at the door, he turned to Lu Jiu and the others in the carriage and said, "The Yuan family is waiting at the door. Do you want to stop?"

Hearing this, Lu Jiu smiled gently and said, "Stop."

Nanny Nan, when Xiao Ci heard that the Yuan family was waiting at the door, he couldn't wait to lift the curtains and look outside.

The carriage stopped in front of Yuan's house.

Lu Jiu and others got off the carriage.

"Auntie, why are you waiting at the door so early in the morning?" Nanny Nan stepped forward and took Old Lady Liu's hand. Her old and skinny hand was particularly cold.

This made Nanny Nan feel very uncomfortable.

"We have nothing to do at home, so we made some food for you to take with you on your journey. You don't know when you will be back after you leave."

Old Mrs. Liu's eyes turned red.

Nan Ma didn't know what to say to Old Lady Liu at this moment, so she just smiled and said, "Auntie, we will definitely come back."

Old Lady Liu knew she was too emotional, so she wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? We made some roujiamo (Chinese steamed buns) and some soup. You can eat them while you're on your way. They're still warm."

"Thank you, Auntie." Nan Ma smiled gratefully.

Old Lady Liu looked at Xiao Ci and said, "Ci'er, Yaoyao loves you holding her the most. If you leave, Yaoyao will definitely be upset because she can't see you. You better come back quickly. Yaoyao is still waiting for you."

Yaoyao's cute face appeared in Xiao Ci's mind. When she smiled, the two dimples at the corners of her mouth were particularly beautiful. When she saw him, she looked very excited and opened her arms for him to hug her.

He felt particularly uncomfortable, and his usually mature and steady face now showed a sad expression.

He also couldn't bear to leave Yaoyao. Yaoyao was so cute and liked to spit on his face.

But Xiao Ci didn’t know when he would be able to come back.

But there are things they have to do.

"Grandma, don't worry, I will come back before Yaoyao forgets me." Xiao Ci raised his face and said seriously.

He knew that children would forget someone they knew before if they hadn't seen him for a long time, and Xiao Ci didn't want Yaoyao to forget him.

"Good boy, Yaoyao will never forget you." Old Mrs. Liu touched Xiao Ci's head.

Old Mrs. Liu has an inexplicable confidence in Yaoyao.

But what Old Lady Liu didn't know was that some memories will become blurred. No matter how familiar a person was before, the face of that person in her mind will gradually become blurred after the passage of time.

Until we meet, we don't recognize each other.

The Yuan family put all the baskets on the Lu family's carriage and told them to be careful on the road.

The carriage gradually disappeared from the Yuan family's sight.

Old Lady Liu sighed and said, "Let's go back."

*

In the Lu family carriage, Nanny lifted the thick cotton cloth covering one of the baskets. The whole basket was padded with cotton cloth stuffed with cotton, and on top was a steaming meat pie.

Lu Jiu reached out to touch it, feeling the sizzling heat coming from the Roujiamo, and said, "The Yuan family is really thoughtful."

"Didn't you say they were a good family? All this was expected." Yue Yuan picked up a meat sandwich and took a bite.

The pancake is filled with well-marinated pork belly, which is fat but not greasy, lean but not dry, and some pickled mustard greens are added in. You won’t feel sick even if you eat the whole thing.

Lu Jiu smiled and looked at Yue Yuan, "Did you also see this using physiognomy?"

Yue Yuan looked at Lu Jiu without saying anything.

He also wanted to see through the faces of the Yuan family, but he didn't have the ability.

Nanny Nan brought a roujiamo to Xiao Ci and poured a few bowls of soup onto the small table.

Suddenly she remembered the wooden box that Old Lady Liu gave her last night.

He quickly took out the wooden box and opened it.

Inside lay several jade pendants of excellent quality, hung with a red rope.

Several jade pendants shone with a lustrous luster, and were carved with patterns they could not understand.

Nanny Nan gave the jade pendant to Xiao Ci, Lu Jiu, Yue Yuan, A Li and others.

The weather was obviously very cold, but when they held the jade pendant, they felt warmth from it.

Nan Ma was surprised: "This jade pendant is not simple."

"Well, this jade pendant is hard to find in this world." Yue Yuan stroked the jade pendant, feeling the spiritual energy flowing on it. He knew there was a talisman array inside.

This talisman array can turn misfortune into good fortune.

It seems that Yuan family's little granddaughter Yaoyao is really a lucky girl chosen by heaven.

"Wear this jade pendant close to your body at all times. Never take it off."

Several people looked up at Yue Yuan with puzzled expressions in their eyes.

Yue Yuan smiled mysteriously and said nothing.

Xiao Ci carefully put the jade pendant around his neck. He would have worn it without Yue Yuan telling him.

......

At night, the weasels and green snakes gathered together again. They had been practicing in seclusion for more than a month, and their spiritual energy had become more and more pure. Now that they had used up the Spirit Gathering Pills, they went down the mountain to Xiongba Stronghold to buy more.

As soon as the two groups met, they started to fight. The weasel thought that the green snake was naked and had no brains, while the green snake thought that the weasel had practiced for so long but had not grown taller, but its hair had become soft and shiny.

Both sides felt that the other side could not defeat them, but they did not dare to take action for fear of suffering losses.

They all secretly made up their minds to fight again when the spiritual energy was purer next time.

When we arrived at Xiongba Shangzhai, we found that the entire mountain was guarded by bandits, and there were people patrolling around the mountain by the fire at regular intervals.

The weasel and the green snake felt a pang in their hearts and looked at each other.

Is this to prevent them?

The defense is so tight that any slight movement will be discovered.

"Zhizhizhi?"

How to do?

A tuft of white hair looked at the green snake.

The green snake tilted its head: "Hiss, hiss, hiss...?"

Is there no other place to move gold, silver and jewelry except here?

This made a lot of sense. A tuft of white hair stretched out his paw and pinched his beard, and suddenly his big eyes lit up.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak…!”

I know a place, follow me!

After saying that, he turned around and ran in one direction with the weasels and green snakes.
