The crowds on the street in the evening were much less crowded. Looking at Chunlan who kept wiping her tears behind him, Cheng Silang had no choice but to turn back to comfort her again.
"Don't worry, my family's business is going to the capital. It will be very convenient to ask the clerk at the counter to deliver the message. If anything goes wrong, I will bring Brother Jin back." He said.
Chunlan nodded and thanked with tears.
"Thank you, sir." She choked with sobs.
"Look at your pear blossoms with the rain, you're so pitiful. Stop being like this." A young man in Tsing Yi next to him smiled and looked at Cheng Silang again, "I know you are a caring person, you don't even care about drinking with me.
After eating, I ran out for this girl."
"Human relations are great feelings." Cheng Silang said, raising his eyes and looking ahead, he felt a little weird when he said this.
In fact, what he should do was not to say goodbye to his brother because of this girl, but because the person leaving was his sister.
It seems that no one has thought of this, right? If Chunlan hadn't come to beg him, he wouldn't have thought of it at all.
"Chunlan, have you brought any money?" he asked.
Chunlan nodded and took out a small sachet from her sleeve.
This is all the money she has saved, hoping that her brother will have a better time in the capital.
The money was a lot of money for the girl, but for Cheng Silang, it was too embarrassing to hand it out.
"Brother Changming, how much did you bring?" he turned to ask his companion.
The companion asked the servant girl behind him, and the girl held up a money bag.
Without waiting for his companion to check, Cheng Silang took it and weighed it in his hands.
"I'll pay you back later." He said with satisfaction.
The young master who was called Brother Changming shook his head and smiled.
"You are so generous," he said.
This money is enough for this girl and her family to live in. I heard that this girl saved Shiro's life, and it seems that this is indeed the case.
"Master, Master, are those people?" Chunlan shouted.
At this time, they had already left the city gate, and a group of people came from the road surrounding the city on the left.
"Brother Jin..." Chunlan held Brother Jin in tears, giving him instructions while giving him the money in her hand.
Brother Jin listened a little shyly and impatiently.
Cheng Silang stepped forward to talk to Manager Cao.
"Take care of my sister-in-law during the journey," he said.
Manager Cao was a little surprised and looked at the young man.
It's strange that someone from the Cheng family came to see him off.
While they were talking here, Mr. Chen was also talking to his steward over there.
“….Place more mats…day and night…”
"...Fourth Master, someone from the Privy Councilor Wen family sent me a greeting card on the way, but I still didn't see you..."
"...There is no time to see them. Didn't we say that we don't want people to know our whereabouts?"
"...The third master was afraid that we would be inconvenienced on the road, so he sent greetings to the inns along the way, but he said to the outside world that the fourth master, you are returning home to visit relatives..."
Cheng Silang didn't pay much attention, but the young master accompanying him accidentally heard a few words, and his expression suddenly changed.
The privy envoys and the Wen family all gave them greeting cards?
Who is this family?
He couldn't help but look over, and Master Chen Si noticed that he was also looking over. Although he was not an official, his family background was beyond what this young man could match. At first glance, he looked a bit majestic.
The young man quickly looked away.
"I'm going to see my sister." Cheng Silang said.
Manager Cao pointed it out to him twice, but he refused to come to the woman and the maid again.
In the carriage behind, a maid with lively eyebrows and a skirt was sitting on the carriage, holding a book in her hand and reading aloud.
"...the streets in front of the temple are crowded with sedans and horses, and there are many descendants who were born in..."
Carriage, suburbs, here the crowd is inspecting the traveling equipment, and there Chunlan and Jin Geer are mourning their farewells. In such a noisy situation, this maid reading seems particularly comfortable in this sad and messy farewell picture.
Are you still studying at this time? This maid is so elegant, she is indeed a girl sent by the Zhang family.
Cheng Silang approached and saluted.
The maid raised her eyes and looked over, but the sound of reading in her mouth did not stop, and she seemed to have no intention of asking.
"I am, Silang of the Cheng family. I know that my sister is going, so I came here to say goodbye." Cheng Silang had no choice but to say first, "Please take care of yourself when you are away from home."
"Banqin."
A female voice came from the carriage, and the maid stopped reading, jumped out of the carriage, and saluted Shiro.
Banqin?
Cheng Silang looked at the girl, then looked inside the carriage, and felt somewhat clear.
After all, I just recognize and recite that name.
"Fourth Young Master, are you here specifically to see our wife off?" the maid asked, with a bit of a smile.
In fact, it wasn't intentional. If his girl hadn't cried and begged, he wouldn't have thought of it.
"Here's some money. It's getting colder and colder, so I need to buy more things. Take it and use it." He said, dropping the subject and handing over the money bag in his hand.
The maid smiled and said nothing or answered.
"Thank you."
A female voice came from the carriage.
"Thank you, Fourth Young Master." The maid immediately reached out and took it, smiling and thanking him.
Cheng Silang looked into the carriage again.
After he came over, he didn't look at the carriage much. His attention was all on the maid. Naturally, a foolish son had to be taken care of by the maid, so it was only right to give instructions to the maid. However, the two questions and answers made it seem that the decision was made by the maid in the car.
Son…
"Sister, is there anything else you need?" he asked tentatively.
"No." Cheng Jiaoniang said in a dull voice, paused briefly, "Thank you."
Cheng Silang wanted to say something else, but Manager Cao came over.
"Fourth Young Master, it's getting late, and we're in a hurry." He said.
Cheng Silang nodded and stood a few steps away.
The maid smiled at him, got on the carriage again, lifted the curtain and went in.
The convoy moves forward.
"Fourth Young Master, thank you for sending me off." The curtains of the car were raised, and the maid smiled at him from inside.
"Be careful on the road." Cheng Silang said, looking over, he was suddenly startled.
Opposite the maid, sat a woman. She was originally facing forward, with black hair hanging down, a full forehead and a high nose. As the maid spoke, she slowly turned her head.
The curtain was lowered at this moment, and the carriage moved forward.
Cheng Silang stood there with his mouth wide open and a look of shock on his face.
What did he see?!
"Wait a minute..." Cheng Silang came back to his senses and shouted, running after him.
"Fourth Young Master, after a long journey, we have to say farewell. If you are too polite, you are too polite." Manager Cao shouted on his horse, cupping his hands.
The carriage was galloping, the horses' hooves were flying, and it quickly went away.
Cheng Silang ran for two steps and then stopped helplessly, looking at the carriage going away with a complicated expression.
Yes, yes, it's her, it's her.
Of course it is her, the lotus pond is where the sisters are, even if they are fools, they are still sisters, it is her.
It turned out to be her...
"I mean, Shiro, you have such a good relationship with your sister." Mr. Changming followed up and said with a smile. He also looked at the retreating troops and frowned slightly, "Who is your sister's maternal family?
"
People in Jiangzhou City naturally know that this idiot from the Cheng family is not a good thing after all. Even among private discussions, friends will not mention this stupid word to their faces.
Cheng Silang was stunned, and Master Changming asked again before he heard.
"Master Zhou pays homage to General Delang," he said.
"That's it?" Master Changming asked in surprise.
"Yes, my ancestor was also a military attache or a foreign official from Shaanxi." Cheng Silang said, seeing his surprised expression, "What's wrong?"
This is not enough to get the Prime Minister of the Privy Council to vote for him personally.
Master Changming looked away again, and in the blink of an eye, only a black dot remained.
Leaving so quickly...
In addition to them, there were also people seeing him off. Master Changming asked who was the person from the Zhou family who was running the shop here.
"Are those people also from your family?" he asked.
"No." The Zhou family replied.
Cheng Silang was also stunned for a moment.
"Who is that?" he asked. If he didn't mean that the Zhou family came to pick him up, how could there be someone who wasn't from the Zhou family?
Acquaintances traveling together?
"I don't know. The person who came with us said he was from the capital with the surname Chen." The Zhou family member replied, and after answering this question, he kicked and left.
From Beijing, Chen?
"It can't be Chen Shao and Prime Minister Chen's house, right?" Young Master Changming blurted out and asked.
Cheng Silang was stunned. He naturally knew who Chen Shao was and immediately laughed.
"What are you thinking!" He laughed and reached out to pat Mr. Changming on the shoulder, "Chen Shao and Mr. Chen's family came to pick up my sister in person? You might as well want to come to the Jade Emperor's house to pick up my sister, which would be more credible!"
That's true, Master Changming also smiled. He smiled but couldn't help but look at the direction of the road.
So, who should it be?
Cheng Silang couldn't help but follow suit.
It turns out that the transformation of women is no matter whether they are ordinary people or extraordinary people.
She has become so beautiful.
It's great, but it's such a pity.
The two of them had their own thoughts and stood in shock for a long time. However, Chunlan was the first to wipe away her tears and stopped looking back. She was shocked by the injuries of the two young masters.
Those who are in ecstasy can only say goodbye.
It's just that the sender feels ecstasy but not parting, and the others don't feel sad either.
"Lady."
Someone shouted outside the car.
The maid opened the carriage curtain and saw the attendant riding past.
"I'd like to ask you, madam, to ride on the road for a while longer. After traveling dozens of miles, you can rest at the Meixian Station," he said.
The maid frowned slightly.
"Is Meixian City stopping?" she asked.
The attendant shook his head.
The maid turned to look at Cheng Jiaoniang.
"Okay." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
The attendant breathed a sigh of relief. When he came, Manager Cao said that as long as the lady agreed, it would be fine. He turned his horse and ran back.
After opening the curtain, Cheng Jiaoniang looked outside and walked a long way without putting it down.
"Madam, Feng Liang, please put down the curtain."
The maid said.
"The mountains and rivers are really magnificent." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
The maid followed and looked over. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the official road seemed to stretch endlessly, and it could be described as empty.
"When we get to Huguang Road, it will be even more beautiful." The maid said, reminding her again, "Madam, please lower the curtain."
Cheng Jiaoniang sat upright as instructed, lowered the curtain of the car, and held it in place to prevent it from being blown up by the wind.
"I have walked this journey." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
The maidservant knew roughly that this lady returned to Jiangzhou alone from Bingzhou with her girl.
So now I am going back to the old path, so I feel sad?
Or is it the sentimentality of things changing and people changing?
"At that time, I had never seen anything so magnificent." Cheng Jiaoniang curled her lips and looked at the maid with a smile.
At that time, I was focused on traveling and planning, but the scenery was right around me but invisible.
"When I come back, the scenery I will see will definitely be better." The maid said with a smile.
"Yes." Cheng Jiaoniang said without any hesitation or ambiguity, "I will definitely do it. Everything I see is a beautiful scenery."
