However, she did not go to Qiushi Courtyard, but went directly back to Cuiyu Pavilion. Mrs. Liu thought she had gone to tell Shen Wan! The next day, they saluted and loaded the car. After everything was ready, Shen Wan put her baby in her arms. In the carriage, she only took Hui'er with her as the accompanying maid, and then Qiu Ju and twenty soldiers.
Originally, Shen Wan didn't plan to take Qiu Ju with her because there were a lot of things going on in the villa, but Qiu Ju had to go, so she had no choice but to take her with her.
When we arrived at the city gate, the farewell ceremony was already over.
They didn't even stop, and went straight out of the city to catch up with the cavalry battalion and followed them.
After traveling for half a day, it was time for lunch. Shen Wan hugged the boy and got out of the carriage, spread a blanket on the broad grass, took out the food prepared in the morning and started eating.
After riding in the car for half a day, Xiao An didn't feel any discomfort at all. On the contrary, he was very excited. After eating the rice cereal, he crawled around on the stall. When he saw a butterfly, he wanted to stand up and chase after it, but he didn't even take two steps. Then he fell down.
"Young Master," Hui'er was startled and quickly picked him up.
He didn't cry either, and smiled naively at Shen Wan and Hui'er with squinted eyes.
After lunch, both the man and the horse rested for a while and then started on their way again.
It was getting dark, and because Shen Wan and the others were following the cavalry battalion, they were also on their way when they passed by the city.
When it got dark and stopped on their way, they had also missed the villages and towns, and had no choice but to set up camp in the wild like the people in the cavalry camp.
Shen Wan also prepared the tent. After setting up the tent with the help of the soldiers, Shen Wan and Hui'er began to prepare food for the evening.
Shen Wan was fully prepared, including all the pots and pans. Although she brought dry food, it was too hard for Zian to eat, and she had to boil water to make rice cereal for him.
Hui'er and Qiu Ju were boiling water on a simple stone stove, and Shen Wan was holding the boy and sitting on the pony.
The first time he slept in the wild, Xiao An felt it was very strange. Even though it was dark all around, he was not afraid and looked around with curious eyes.
The soldiers also set up a stove, lit a fire, and heated hot water in a pot.
Zhao He and several soldiers came back from the river and brought back some packed fish.
"Madam, we caught some fish by the river. You and the young master can grill them and eat them!"
Shen Wan saw that the fish was quite big and they couldn't eat it, so she said, "We just want one and make some soup to drink. You can roast the rest and eat it yourself! There are seasonings in the carriage that is used as a salute."
"also."
Zhao He kept one and took the rest.
The water boiled, and Shen Wan made rice cereal for Xiao An. While she was feeding Xiao An the rice cereal, Qiu Ju also started cooking fish soup.
After cooking, Qiu Ju also put some wild coriander growing in the grass into the soup.
Zhao He's grilled fish was also grilled. The aroma of the grilled fish with sufficient seasonings spread for ten miles, and all the soldiers in the cavalry camp could smell it.
Xuanyuan Liuyun, who was eating pancakes in the camp, also smelled the fragrance and was wondering if some soldiers had caught fish from the river and roasted it! The voice of Captain Chen Hu rang outside the battalion commander: "General, Chen Hu ask to see."
"come in!"
Xuanyuan Liuyun took a sip of hot tea and swallowed the cake in his mouth.
After a while, Chen Hu entered the camp.
"The general's subordinates discovered that a group of people had been following us during the day, and now they have pitched a tent not far from our camp."
They were also grilling fish, which was so delicious that the soldiers didn’t even want to eat the pancakes.
"My subordinates are worried about whether there will be any problems with them, so they came here to report to the general."
"Have you been following us?"
Xuanyuan Liuyun frowned, put down the pancake in his hand and said to Chen Hu, "Call a few people and come with me to have a look."
