Qiu Dafu did not change his pace and replied calmly, "Seeing someone off."
Zheng Hong pressed further, "Who is it for?"
Qiu Dafu thought of Jiang Liu and slightly curled his lips.
But considering the difference in their social status, his expression returned to calm.
He liked Jiang Liu and wanted to propose marriage to Jiang's parents, but after visiting the Jiang family, he realized his own shortcomings.
To win the heart of the beauty, he needs to achieve great success.
Zheng Hong was completely baffled by this scene.
He pressed on, "Who is it for?"
Qiu Dafu didn't reply. Instead, he looked at the long mountain road and the trees covered in snow whose names he didn't know, and asked Zheng Hong, "Do you know the way home?"
Qiu Dafu's tone suddenly changed, and Zheng Hong was taken aback at first, then said, "You don't know the way?"
Qiu Dafu shook his head, then nodded, "I don't know."
He originally knew the way, but the two of them had been following the carriage for a long time and were now deep in the mountains and forests. Because he was not very familiar with the area, he had long since lost track of where they were.
There was no doubt that he was lost.
Zheng Honggang wanted to mock Qiu Dafu, but suddenly he realized that he seemed to be lost as well.
The two looked at each other and began searching for their way home.
"Brother Qiu, Baiyang is west of Huaiyuan. We should head west right now. But..."
Qiu Dafu: "Just what?"
Zheng Hong: "Which way is west?"
Qiu Dafu: "..."
The two men followed their instincts and continued walking towards Baiyang.
Along the mountain road,
Zheng Hong: "Brother Qiu, I think you're a really good person, so why does Lord Tang always seem to be picking on you?"
Qiu Dafu: "..."
If Jiang Liu and Tang Yi have a harmonious marriage, he will bury his feelings deep in his heart.
However, now that the two have broken up, he also has the right to pursue happiness.
Zheng Hong: "Is there some kind of grudge between you two?"
Qiu Dafu didn't want to hear Zheng Hong's continued questioning, so he quickened his pace.
They walked for a long time before finally seeing a city. Zheng Hong shouted with joy, "Brother Qiu, we've finally arrived at Qingyun Town!"
Qingyun Town was the place Qiu Dafu and Jiang Liu passed through last time.
Qiu Dafu carefully examined the city wall ahead: "Are you sure?"
How could we possibly reach Qingyun Town from just outside the mountains?
"If it's not Qingyun, where else could it be?" Zheng Hong couldn't think of any other place nearby besides Qingyun.
He ran forward quickly, but when he saw the words "city tower," he was dumbfounded.
On the city gate tower, the two characters 'Huaiyuan' were clearly written.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, we've ended up here again.
“Brother Qiu, it’s getting late. Let’s stay at Huaiyuan Inn for the night and head back to Baiyang tomorrow.”
Qiu Dafu: "That's the only way."
After finishing his speech, he led the way and stepped into the city gate of Huaiyuan.
Now, the sun is setting.
They should be thankful that the city gates were not yet closed; otherwise, they would have nowhere to stay tonight.
In Baiyang's small courtyard, the animals were kept in a free-range mode.
Qiu Yan sat at the table, sketching a rough design of a copper pot, planning to hand it over to the craftsmen tomorrow to make a batch according to the design, hoping to earn some money before the end of the year.
Qiu Xu held a wooden stick and practiced martial arts. Gu Xiaoran found it interesting and followed behind him, mimicking his movements.
Next door, Qiu Ling'er stood beside Old Master Mu, her small fists clenched, gently massaging his back. "Grandpa Mu..."
"Stop!" Old Mu waved his hand, interrupting her.
"Girl, put away your little schemes. Grandpa Mu has already said that he can't make the decision!"
