Chapter 428: Is Hongying going to travel far away?
When Li Yan and his three children got off the bus, they didn't even have time to greet the two grandmothers, but they saw a large family of General Qi's family.
"Old General Qi, why are you here too? Are you going out too?"
I saw that the entire family of the Seven Generals had dismounted from their horses. In addition to General Qi, there was also Mrs. Xiao Qi, plus Hongying's aunt and child. There was also a carload of people.
"If my father hadn't been going to court, he would have come to see me off." Hongying's words were neither salty nor bland, but they were shocking.
Seeing that their female relatives were all greeting each other, General Qi also stepped forward to say hello to the two old ladies. Before he could reply to the Duke's wife, Hongying ran over and hugged Chu Chu.
"Where are you going? Why don't you tell Chu Chu when you go out? I wouldn't even know if I didn't meet you."
Chu Chu was a little bit blaming. The relationship between the two was so good, and Hongying didn't say hello no matter what happened. It was too pointless.
He had already greeted her when he went out. Why should she go out secretly?
Even Qiuli and August, who were waiting on the side, found it incredible. They had a farewell dinner together yesterday, why didn't they talk about it?
Looking at Hongying's appearance, she seemed to be cheerful. She must have had a plan, and it didn't seem like she was going out for something too urgent.
"I'll go to Qingzhou with you. Grandpa agreed." Hongying laughed so hard that her mouth split open behind her ears.
"what!"
"No way!"
General Qi hurriedly came over and said to Li Yan apologetically: "Mrs. Duke, I'm sorry, I'm rude. Before Hongying's father went out today, he asked me to apologize to his wife.
In fact, on the day of the Lantern Festival, I made an agreement with the Duke of Guo to let this child go with us to Qingzhou to see the world.
But that day, the children were all reluctant to let go of Chu Chu. They were all in a low mood. They were worried that if Hongying went away, others would make a fuss and cause too much trouble to you, so they didn't reveal the news to you in advance.
These two children play well. Hongying has been independent since she was a child and has been making troubles. I also want her to go out and experience. She regretted not being able to follow you to the Northland last time. This time she can't defeat her determination.
But I made it very clear to her about this business, not to bother the two old ladies with everything, nor to cause trouble to the adults over there.
Now he has brought her a maid and a woman, the driver and the two guards are all very skilled, so the old lady doesn't need to worry about her too much. If she doesn't obey, she will be locked up in the house and come back. Just bring them back together when the time comes. "
Old General Qi's tone was just a confession, not a discussion at all.
Seeing her grandfather say so much, Hongying felt a little embarrassed, and quickly interjected: "Grandpa, I can definitely do what I promised, and you see that I am studying in Shunguo Duke's Mansion, has anything happened? Without me Cousin Qingqing is not that submissive yet."
After speaking, Hongying seemed to be worried that Duke Shun's wife would be worried, so she turned around and saluted Li Yan and assured: "Auntie, I will be obedient and protect Chu Chu."
On the contrary, Mrs. Xiao Qi was a little embarrassed. She felt that she had killed him first and then reported it to him without telling the Duke and his wife. After all, she was a bit unjust.
After Hongying finished speaking, she ran off to play coquettishly with Grandma Yan and Grandma Chen, and vowed to do it again, patting her chest and promising another round, for fear that something would happen before leaving and that they would not be able to go together.
"Since General Qi and the Duke of Guo have made the arrangements, how can I not be worried? With Zimo and the guards watching, they will definitely come back safely. General Qi and Mrs. Qi, please rest assured."
Li Yan didn't think that Duo Hongying and the others would be too much of a burden. He knew that the maid in the General's Mansion was also quite skilled, otherwise he wouldn't have taken them out.
She was just a little angry. She was angry that the Duke hadn't made it clear to her until this morning. Looking at her confusion, maybe the people in General Qi's palace thought it was hard for her to speak.
It seems that during this period of time, I have been taking care of Yao'er, but my wife is still not enough, so I want him to look good when I go back.
In this way, their group became a total of six carriages, with twelve mounted guards.
Knowing that there would be no more changes, Hongying became distraught again, and jumped into Chuchu's car without hearing any greetings. She chatted with them until the car and horse set off, without showing any sadness at parting with her family.
However, the people in General Qi's Mansion may have been used to farewells, so their daughter just left with someone else's family, and even Mrs. Qi didn't wipe away her tears.
On the contrary, it was Li Yan and his twin brother who were reluctant to leave Chu Chu because they lost a lot of golden beans. If it weren't for the fact that they had to take care of Yao'er, Li Yan would definitely have followed.
Based on the experience of traveling to the Northland last time, Chu Chu felt that this trip was no different.
Dad had already said before going out that although he was heading north this time, Qingzhou Mansion was leaning towards the northeast and he would not take the same road he had taken before.
The main thing is that it won't be as tense as last time. Without the threat of danger, everyone is very relaxed and treats it as a fun trip.
The servants traveling together are all very familiar to each other. Unlike the last time when they just met and traveled and needed to get used to each other, they naturally get along very harmoniously.
Then Hongying was added together, and there were more topics along the way. However, Hongying was too energetic and didn’t seem to have the habit of taking a nap. She could always come up with some weird ideas to make everyone excited. Several children were in the same car. It made a fuss.
This gave Grandma Yan a headache, and she couldn't blame her, so from the next day, she would always call Chu Chu over after lunch and let her take a nap in the car. Come back later.
During dinner in the evening, Uncle Zimo came over and said, "We will leave the Shengjing area and enter the Qingzhou Prefecture at noon tomorrow."
In this way, less than half of the five-day journey was actually in Shengjing.
Hongying and Chu Chu were excited when they heard this. Chu Chu quickly asked: "Can we see my uncle, aunt, and uncle soon?"
The little head was hit by grandma again: "How could it be so fast? Didn't your father tell you? Qingzhou's territory is very wide, and we won't be able to reach it until the night of the fifth day."
"Oh!"
Chu Chu was a little disappointed, and there was a gap between expectations.
Hongying was very excited: "It's better to stay away, as long as you don't go home."
When Hongying said this, everyone shook their heads and laughed angrily.
Those who didn’t know better thought she had run away from home and had a deep grudge against her family!
This time I still brought a lot of food from home, but not much because of the short trip, and most of it was placed in the car in which Grandma Yan and Grandma Chen were sitting.
Most of what was simmering on the stove were steamed buns and pastries. The New Year had just passed and everyone’s appetite was not very good. On the contrary, the thick meat porridge was more suitable for the appetites of the elderly and children. The meat buns, braised pork, and large knuckles brought out were better. Most of it went into the bellies of the escort boys.
Although Chu Chu’s space also contained some delicious food, grandma was not allowed to take it out. She said she was just keeping it just in case, and Chu Chu was not allowed to reach out unless absolutely necessary.
