In her previous life, her parents died in an accident and her brother was left disabled, making Zhou Zhi live a wretched existence. Starting over in this life, with both her parents alive and her b...
Xu Zhi smiled and said, "Uncle Qing, you're right. In that case, you can arrange this matter."
Uncle Qing agreed, thought for a moment, and asked, "Young Madam, should we also make arrangements for the Shen family's daughter?"
Xu Zhi said, "Miss Shen and I hit it off immediately. I plan to become sworn sisters with Miss Shen after I arrive in Yuezhou. I hope Uncle Qing will also arrange Miss Shen's attendants."
Qingbo nodded after hearing this and went to the front to arrange manpower.
Yuezhou was not only an important military stronghold, but also an important port. The road from here to Yuezhou was an official road in good condition. The road, which had been muddy due to the rain in the morning, was much better by now. After lunch, the group continued their journey.
It wasn't until evening that they arrived at the next post station. Before they even entered, they saw several people standing at the entrance. Upon seeing their group, someone stepped forward and asked, "Is there a young lady from the Shen family inside?"
When Granny Lin heard someone asking while she was in the carriage, she lifted the curtain and saw that it was someone she recognized. She quickly got off the carriage and said, "Sister Liu, we're here."
The person who came was sent by the Shen family, and they even knew Granny Lin.
Upon seeing this, Sister Liu quickly came over, stood in front of the carriage, bowed, and said, "Third Miss has finally arrived. The Old Madam has been worried about Third Miss and specially sent me here to wait for you."
Feng Wan'er got off the carriage and said, "Greetings, Sister Liu. Thank you for your concern, Grandmother."
Sister Liu said, "Everything has been arranged inside the post station. Please come in and rest for a while, Third Miss."
Xu Zhi had already entered the post station. The advance party had come and taken care of everything. After Xu Zhi went in, she washed up briefly and then lay down on the bed.
Zheng Yuanyuan came in from outside and saw Xu Zhi lying on the bed. She asked, "Sister-in-law, are you tired?"
Xu Zhi said, "Yes, riding in a carriage is too tiring. I want to ride a horse tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Sister-in-law, can I learn to ride a horse?"
Xu Zhi said, "The best place to learn to ride a horse is at a horse farm or in an open area. We still have a long way to go. If you want to learn, I'll arrange for someone to teach you when we get to Yuezhou, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yuanyuan said, "Sister-in-law, don't forget."
Xu Zhi said, "I forgot, you could have reminded me."
Upon hearing Xu Zhi say she wanted to ride a horse, Granny Lu said, "If you want to ride a horse, I'll go find your men's clothes right now. It's too conspicuous to ride a horse while wearing women's clothes."
Xu Zhi took Lu Mama's arm and said, "Mama, I'll do whatever you say."
After meeting with Granny Lin, Sister Liu accompanied Feng Wan'er to the courtyard that had already been arranged.
Sister Liu said, "Third Miss, the old lady said that you should not rush and just walk slowly."
Feng Wan'er said, "Sister Liu, my grandmother's birthday is in five days. I always have to rush back to wish her a happy birthday."
Sister Liu said with a smile, "The old lady already knows about the young lady's illness. She said that since the young lady is not in good health, she should not worry about those formalities and should take good care of her health. The old lady is just afraid that the young lady will have to rush back before the old lady's birthday, so she sent this servant to accompany the young lady on her journey."
Hearing this, Feng Wan'er felt very gratified, and as she smiled, tears welled up in her eyes.
Upon seeing this, Sister Liu quickly helped Granny Lin with her handkerchief, saying, "Miss, all the girls at home are looking forward to your return. You've been gone for many years, and they all say they miss you terribly."
Feng Wan'er nodded and said, "Thank you for your help, Sister Liu."
After Lin Mama served Feng Wan'er her meal, Feng Wan'er said, "Mama, after we celebrate Grandmother's birthday, shall we move out and stay here again?"
Upon hearing this, Granny Lin paused for a moment and said, "Miss, didn't we come all this way just to stay at your maternal home? Our mistress said that you could stay at your maternal home for two years and then we would bring you back."
Feng Wan'er shook her head and said, "Granny, it's good to live with family, but what if we run into people who know Feng Wan'er? We can't take that risk. It would bring a lot of trouble to our family and maternal grandparents' family. I'll find a quiet nunnery or temple to live in. That would be fine."
