Fu Yanting quickly fastened his collar, stood up and pushed open the carriage door.
As the carriage door opened, a faint scent of grass slowly drifted in.
Chu Chenyin followed behind him and looked outside, only to see the towering mountains before his eyes.
The sea of clouds is floating, the mountains are stacked up, and the peaks are connected, stretching endlessly.
When the morning glow came, the clouds moved, emitting a faint golden light.
Chu Chenyin was astonished by the scene before him. This must be the famous ancient painting A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains!
She couldn't help but get off the carriage, walked to the foot of the mountain, looked up at the endless hills, and immediately felt refreshed.
Fu Yanting came up behind her and said, "This place is not as good as Zhanyang County, which is close to the lake. Here are all mountains, and the trees and medicinal herbs are very famous. When we find a place to stay later, we can go to the market to buy some."
Chu Chenyin nodded. As she looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her, she couldn't help but feel regretful.
It won't be long before these mountains are reduced to ruins due to earthquakes and droughts.
Actually, human beings are so insignificant, just like grains of sand in a sandbox, which will be blown away by the slightest breeze.
She returned to the carriage and followed Lord Fu and Madam Fu towards Mengru County.
Mengru County is located among the mountains, with more than ten villages around it.
Some villages are at the foot of the mountain, and some are at the top of the mountain.
In ancient times, unlike modern times, roads were built in many places, and villagers living on the top of the mountain had to climb stone stairs to get home.
In order to avoid attracting attention and to facilitate their escape, Lord Fu and Fu Yanting chose to stay at Qing'er's home at the foot of the mountain.
Mrs. Fu's dowry maid Qing'er, whose surname was Zhang, grew up in this mountain since she was a child. However, because there were many daughters in her family, her parents sold her to a human trafficker.
The human trafficker brought her to the capital and sold her to the Qu family, where she became Madam Fu's personal maid.
Because the capital was far away from Meng Ruzhen, her parents thought she was sold to a brothel and never asked about her for many years.
Qing'er brought them all to her home.
Qing'er's family has relied on farming for generations, and they built a brick and tile house with the money earned from farming and selling grain.
In the countryside, a brick and tile house is already good, and many are mud houses or thatched houses.
Lord Fu had led his children in military campaigns for many years and had eaten raw meat before, so naturally he didn't care about these things.
"Dad, Mom! I'm back!" Qing'er called into the house.
Not long after, an old woman came out of the house.
The old woman, with slightly white hair, walked out tremblingly, holding a cane and bending her waist. "Who's back?"
