"Okay." Lou Yunchun looked at Wan Qingmiao, who forced a smile. "Goodbye, brother-in-law."
"Yeah." Lou Yunchun nodded with satisfaction, then jumped on the horse, bowed to everyone, shook the reins and patted the horse, and headed towards the street.
After everyone left, Wansheng called the servant next to him and asked him a few questions in a low voice.
Wan Qingmiao saw that things were not going well, so he said to Xizhi, "Mother, I'm going to check on the shop and will be back later."
After saying that, he was about to slip away.
"Stop!" Wan Sheng froze him with those two words, then scolded him, "I told you to treat guests well, and this is how you treat them?"
Wan Qingmiao argued, "Who knew he couldn't hold his liquor so well... and it was he who wanted to drink that ended up falling."
Seeing how pitiful he was, Xizhi advised Wansheng, "The child is grown up now. Don't lecture him in front of the house, or he will be laughed at by others."
It's still his mother who loves him.
Wan Qingmiao was about to go over and act coquettishly towards Xizhi, but she added, "Let's go to the study."
"Madam, you are right." Wan Sheng said to Xizhi with a pleasant expression, but turned to Wan Qingmiao with a stern face, "Didn't you hear what your mother said? Why don't you go to the study and wait for me?"
"Yes." Wan Qingmiao looked at his mother sadly, walked in dejectedly, and when he passed by the servant, he couldn't help but pinched his leg.
The servant was pinched so hard that he hissed and hurried to catch up, then defended himself as he walked.
"Master, I'm not complaining. Master is the most senior in our family. If he wants me to speak, how dare I disobey him... Ouch!"
Wan Sheng and the other man watched the two men walk away and couldn't help but sigh, "They're almost at the coming-of-age ceremony, but they seem like they haven't grown up yet."
"When he really grows up, you will miss the way he is now." Xizhi looked at her son with a smile, and then thought of her daughter, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little sour.
Xu Jiang is just too sensible, calm, experienced, and considerate, making it difficult for Xizhi to imagine her innocent appearance.
Seeing her melancholy expression, Wan Sheng couldn't help but think of the conversation he heard at Luoyuexuan yesterday. He sighed slightly, then held his wife's hand and said softly, "I'll accompany you back to the house first."
I'll go find my silly son and ask him about it later.
"Yeah." Xizhi looked back at the direction where Lou Yunchun left, then walked in with Wansheng, "I hope they can meet soon."
Wan Sheng said, "It's almost there. From here to Fuzhou, as long as there are no delays on the road, we can arrive in three days."
————Lao Du’s dividing line————
Xu Jiang rushed to the Fuzhou government office, but did not see Du Hui.
She presented her visiting card, but was told that Du had gone back to various counties to inspect and prepare for the Autumn Festival sacrifice, and would not be back for four or five days.
I ignored this matter.
Shan Bo asked Xu Jiang, "Should we wait or go?"
Xu Jiang said, "Now that we've come this far, there's no reason for us to leave without seeing anyone. It'll only take four or five days, so we can wait."
"Then let's go to the inn and settle down. It's a good opportunity to rest up. We're all exhausted these past few days."
"good."
Shan Bo then told the guards to turn around and go back to the posthouse.
A guard looked at the bucket of fish and was puzzled. "What should we do with these fish?"
I don’t know if this fish can survive until Du Hui returns from his inspection.
Xu Jiang stepped forward and asked the guard she had just spoken to if she could keep the two fish in the mansion. The guard was a little embarrassed. Seeing this, Shan Bo stepped forward and showed his pass to prove his identity. The guard then agreed and asked someone to carry the two fish into the government office.
Xu Jiang asked Du about the counties and towns he was going to inspect, and after taking note of them, she planned to visit them the next day.
Anyway, I'm free anyway, so instead of wasting time in the inn, I might as well go out for a walk. Maybe I can run into him, and let everyone see the customs of the Autumn Festival in this barbarian land, and relax and have some fun.
Having made up his mind, Xu Jiang bid farewell to the guards and left the government office with a group of people and headed for the post station.
The posthouse is next to the river, not far from Baziliang. Unfortunately, the river water has risen at this time and has submerged the stone bridge, making it impossible to visit.
Everyone decided to settle down early, get enough rest, and go out to enjoy the autumn breeze tomorrow.
At night, Xu Jiang fell asleep with the sound of waves as her pillow and had a beautiful dream.
In the dream, someone came on a boat walking on the moon and said he wanted to take her home.
