Chapter 605 Goodbye Liujia Village

The door slammed shut, and Awang scratched his head in frustration, not knowing what was wrong with him coming here with good intentions to deliver the medicine and offend Qin Yao.

Forget it. He was not a suspicious person. Anyway, the medicine had been delivered and it was late at night, so he went to bed.

There is still one day left until departure time.

In terms of personnel, Qin Yao has handed over all the village affairs, the stationery factory has also said a brief farewell to the workers, and Yin Le has quit his job in the canteen and is ready to go to Beijing.

Liu Ji returned home in the evening and got the necessary travel permits. Dalang and his four siblings also packed their luggage into the magic book box.

Si Niang wanted to take the piano with her, so Qin Yao specially added a wooden trough on the top of the carriage, just enough to put the piano down.

As for long-distance transportation, maps were available, carriages had been inspected and reinforced, and each family member had two pairs of shoes prepared for replacement.

Two more horses were bought. Qin Yao and Liu Ji would ride one each, while Yin Le would drive the carriage and take the four children in it.

As for money, Qin Yao had exchanged all the cash in his hands into easy-to-carry banknotes and carried them with him, leaving only fifty taels of silver for Yin Le to keep, who was responsible for food and accommodation expenses along the way.

Everything was ready, and the night before departure, the family of six checked again to see if there was anything missing.

Liu Ji looked at his packed bookcase and nodded heavily, "I've brought all the new clothes with me. I won't embarrass my wife when we get to the capital."

Qin Yao: Silence is her mother tongue.

The four brothers and sisters carefully checked their bookcases again, and found that the most important things had been packed. They reported to their mother in unison: "Mother, we have packed everything!"

Qin Yao hummed and looked at Yin Le again.

Yin Le had few things, so he carried all his hidden weapons with him, and the remaining two sets of clothes could be rolled up in his bag.

"Master, I don't have much stuff, so I've taken them all with me." Yin Le reported seriously.

Qin Yao also looked at her luggage. She used an old-fashioned mother-of-pearl ladies' box, which contained some of her personal daily necessities and a set of spare clothes.

What remained was the wooden box for the crescent-shaped sword and a set of bow and arrows that he planned to hang directly in the carriage for easy use.

An iron rod was stuffed under the carriage, and he was carrying a light dagger and a slingshot.

"I've brought everything too." Qin Yao said to everyone.

Then, everyone looked at Li.

Li took out two bulging oilcloth bags and told them that she had packed five umbrellas, a tent, a small army iron pot, seven wooden bowls, mixed seasonings in bamboo tubes, and dry food and snacks that could be eaten at any time into the two bags.

When the time comes, put it on a horse and ride it, so you don't have to worry about rain or sleeping in the wilderness.

However, looking at the weather in recent days, Li was still worried: "It rains a lot during the Qingming Festival. I'm afraid it will rain most of the way. Don't be too anxious to hurry."

Qin Yao and others nodded to show that they understood.

It is getting dark. After a night's rest, we will set off early tomorrow morning to the most prosperous place in the world.

Thinking of this, not only the children in the family were excited, even Qin Yao, the calm adult, couldn't help but tossing and turning in bed, secretly looking forward to it.

I fell asleep in a daze, and when I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

Qin Yao jumped up from the bed, quickly put on a light spring shirt with money bills sewn on it, put the dagger and slingshot at her waist, and pushed the door open to leave the room.

She paused for a moment at the door, carefully looked around the room where she had lived for four years, then closed the door with a smile.

Liu Ji and his sons had already gotten up and were loading their book boxes onto the carriage, stacking them one on top of the other and tying them with ropes to the extended platform at the rear door of the carriage.

Five book boxes were neatly placed in the back of the car.

Qin Yao's ladies' box and Yin Le's small bag were placed under the small table in the carriage, leaving plenty of space for Dalang and his three siblings to sit and lie down.

The new horse that Awang bought was very docile. Liu Ji had never ridden a horse other than Lao Huang. After loading all the luggage onto the carriage, he took the horse out for a walk before breakfast to familiarize himself with it.

By the way, feed all the horses well and let them eat more good food.

Once I went out, the only thing I had left was dry bean curd cakes to eat.

Awang seemed unwilling to see them off, and went to the fields with his hoe without having breakfast. No matter how Yin Le called him, he couldn't get him back to have breakfast with them.

"Ah~" Yin Le looked at the back of the man walking towards the field and sighed helplessly, "At least we had the last reunion dinner."

Sanlang had just said goodbye to his friends in the village and jumped into the courtyard excitedly. When he heard Yin Le's words, he frowned and made a serious gesture of silence with his fingers.

"Sister Le, my aunt said that you are not allowed to say unlucky words like the last one when you are away from home."

Yin Le's forehead jumped, and he tapped the little guy's round forehead and said unhappily: "Got it!"

"I don't usually see you listening so seriously when studying, but you remember things like this clearly."

Sanlang made a face, ran, rushed into the main room, obediently found his seat at the dining table, and waited for the meal to be served.

Liu Ji helped Li put the food on the table, looked outside the courtyard, and then turned back to look at Qin Yao who was squatting at the door sharpening a knife, "Madam, is Awang really not going to go with us?"

"Um."

Liu Ji was not giving up. "Why don't you try to persuade him? What's the future for him if he stays in such a place? It would be much better to go to the capital." He could also be his follower and run errands for him. Even if he did nothing, just standing by his side to support him would be fine.

He is now a juren, how can he go out without a decent servant following him?

Qin Yao raised her head abruptly, her eyes unfriendly, the knife in her hand rustling, "If he doesn't want to, do I have to tie him up?"

Liu Ji forced a smile and changed the subject stiffly, "Madam, it's time to eat. Let's eat first. It will be too late if we delay any longer."

Qin Yao stared at him for two seconds, which made him feel creepy. Then she dipped the knife into clean water and stood up.

He wiped the knife dry and put it in the box, then waved to Yin Le and asked her to put the wooden box in the carriage.

After Yin Le came back from work, they started to have breakfast.

When you are away from home, the thing you miss the most is the hot meal at home. The family of six knew that they would not be able to eat any delicious meals for at least half a month after leaving the house, so they all opened their stomachs and ate as much as they could at one time.

By the time we had filled our stomachs, the sun had climbed up from the top of the mountain.

The family of six, who thought it would be a rainy day today, suddenly laughed out loud.

God is so kind!

Qin Yao and Liu Ji rode in front.

The children happily got into the carriage. Yin Le sat on the shaft, raised the whip and followed behind.

Everyone from the old house came to see them off, and along with the peaceful and harmonious mountain village of Liujia Village, they gradually fell behind Qin Yao's family.

The couple turned around and looked at the blurred people, houses and farmland behind them.

Looking back, he suppressed the slight reluctance in his heart, and ran towards the most prosperous East Capital of Shengguo with some expectations.
