Ruyi was sure that she was not seeing things. Moreover, she had grown up in the county and had seen countless horse-drawn carriages, whether they were her own or passing by. She knew them all by heart. Only this morning's carriage was unusual in both shape and decoration, so she could remember it so clearly.

"Then why did they come to Taohua Village?"

Ruyi looked at the carriage entering the village and asked curiously.

Qin Anming shook his head. How could he know?

"This kind of carriage is only for the rich and powerful. Each horse is tall and strong, and the carriage is made of either huanghuali or red sandalwood. Ordinary people can afford it."

Ruyi was still looking in the direction the convoy was leaving.

"From what you said, it seems like you are really looking forward to it." Qin Anming said with a smile.

Ruyi came back to her senses after hearing the man's smile and snorted, "Who wouldn't want it? Huanghuali and red sandalwood are my dream. If I could have such a carriage, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"You can afford it. We can change it to Huanghuali wood later."

Qin Anming seemed to have an attitude of, "As soon as you open your mouth, I will drive the car immediately."

Knowing that he was teasing her, Ruyi patted Qin Anming and said, "Unless I'm crazy, I'd use huanghuali and red sandalwood for a carriage. But that's too much!"

Qin Anming laughed after hearing this. He knew that Ruyi was a little Pixiu who only took in but not left.

"Laugh, laugh, but be careful not to get a stitch in the side."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Anming suddenly took a breath of cold air and started coughing.

Ruyi let down the curtain, returned to the carriage and laughed.

–

After the luxury convoy entered Taohua Village, they arrived at Xiaoguo's house as if they were familiar with the route.

One person got out of the car and knocked on the door.

Xiaoguo was cleaning the house when she heard a knock on the door. She was confused. She had just closed the door, so who could it be?

"Mom, I'll go open the door!"

"Don't go out. I'll go."

Xiaoguo called out to Zhuangzhuang who was running out right after he finished speaking. He was going out without even putting on any clothes. Wasn't this asking for trouble?

He put down the broom, wrapped his clothes tightly and walked out.

“I am here.”

As soon as they arrived in the yard, there was another knock on the door. Xiao Guo hurriedly spoke and walked quickly to the door.

"Who are you?" Xiaoguo opened the door and saw a man dressed like an ordinary person.

The man took a few steps back, said nothing, and just looked at Xiaoguo with a smile.

"Eh? Kansai?!"

Xiaoguo saw who was coming and found the person's information from his memory. Wasn't this Guan Xi, the commander of the Jinyiwei who escorted him to the imperial palace in the capital?

"Madam, do you still remember me?"

"Of course I remember!" Xiao Guo smiled and looked at the battle outside, feeling very curious.

Guan Xi saw the confusion in the man's eyes, so he explained, "I came here to disturb you, madam, but I was actually escorting someone."

"who?"

Xiao Guo looked at him. Who could be the one who needed his escort and was connected to her? It wasn't Jiang Shanhe. If he was here, he would have come on horseback. How could he let someone escort him so weakly?

"Of course it's me!"

Before Guanxi could say anything, a childish and lively voice came from the carriage not far away.

As soon as the sound came out, Xiaoguo's eyelids jumped and he looked towards the source of the sound.

A round ball whose figure could not be seen clearly pulled aside the curtain with great force and stood outside the carriage in a proud manner, with his hands on his hips, revealing a pair of big round eyes looking at Xiaoguo. He was carrying a bulging bag on his back, and laughter could be heard from his covered mouth from time to time.

"This……"

Xiao Guo narrowed her eyes and walked closer. No way, no way, "Xiao Yi?!"

I called out his name tentatively, and sure enough, the little fur ball burst into laughter, "It's me!"

After saying that, he jumped down with a dive, scaring the people around him so much that they rushed over to check if he was injured. Xiao Yi impatiently pushed through the crowd, rushed to Xiao Guo and hugged her.

Xiao Guo also squatted down and hugged him, "Long time no see, Xiao Yi~"

Xiao Yi hugged Xiao Guo and breathed hard, afraid that he would burst into tears if he was late for a second. He missed her so much.

Xiaoguo tried to pick him up and did it easily.

In fact, when they first met, she found that Xiaoyi was as fat as a ball like Zhuangzhuang. But after hugging him, she found that Xiaoyi was hollow because of his thick outer clothes, while Zhuangzhuang was solid.

"Xiao Yi, why are you here?!"

Xiaoguo was very excited. He hadn't seen this kid for a long time and really missed him.

"Isn't today Zhuangzhuang's birthday? In fact, I set out from the palace a long time ago, and it took me a long time to get here." Xiaoyi acted coquettishly to Xiaoguo unconsciously.

Xiaoguo felt very distressed. Why was such a young child released alone?

In her eyes, she had already ignored the luxurious carriage and the large number of guards. All she saw was that a little kid like Xiaoyi had traveled through mountains and rivers to come here just to celebrate Zhuangzhuang's birthday. She was filled with shock, emotion and heartache.

"Zhuangzhuang must be very happy to see you!"

Xiao Yi nodded and suddenly thought of the protagonist, "Where's Zhuangzhuang?!"

As he asked, his eyes searched everywhere for the strong figure.

"I'm in the house, come in!"

As he said that, he pushed open the door and let Xiao Yi in. He was watching the door from the window slit and finally saw the person coming. He rubbed his eyes excitedly to make sure it was not an illusion. Then he shouted excitedly, "Xiao Yi Xiao Yi Xiao Yi!!"

"Strong! Strong! Strong!"

Xiao Yi ran while calling Zhuangzhuang's name. When the two children met, their screams shook the earth. The chickens, ducks, dogs, donkeys and cows in the yard also barked one after another.

Xiaoguo seemed happy too, but since he still had to clarify the truth with Guanxi, he could only close the door to block out some noise.

"Kansai, what's going on?"

Xiaoguo asked the man who was standing quietly beside her.

"A few days ago, the prince kept asking to leave the palace to find Zhuangzhuang to celebrate his birthday. It took a long time for the emperor to beg him to agree to let our team escort the prince here."

After Guanxi finished explaining, Xiaoguo hesitated, "When will you go back?"

She asked this question purely out of wanting to know, with no other intention.

"The initial estimate is three days from now."

At this time, Guanxi took out a big bag from somewhere and handed it to Xiaoguo.

Xiaoguo took it subconsciously, but before he could lift it, he dropped it. He then used both hands to lift it up. He had just seen Guanxi lift it with just one hand, so he thought he could do it with one hand too. However, he was careless and almost made a fool of himself.

"Ma'am, be careful."

"Nothing."

Xiaoguo felt even more embarrassed seeing that others still cared about her.

"Madam, these are the things the prince wears and uses for daily use. I'll leave you in charge these days!"

After Guanxi explained everything, Xiaoguo nodded and said, "What about you?"

"Oh, we won't bother you, Madam. We have already asked the village chief to arrange housing for you."

Xiaoguo nodded after hearing this and said, "That's good. My house can't accommodate so many people."

After Guanxi finished giving the instructions, the village chief came over, and then the group followed him and left in a mighty manner.

Seeing that the person had disappeared, Xiao Guo sighed. Should she be happy or not?

Does the emperor really trust her so much?! What if something goes wrong here? Even if I have three heads and six arms, I can't handle it. The pressure is so great...

No matter how worried she was, Xiaoguo was still happy in her heart. Since Xiaoyi came so confidently, she would definitely take good care of him.

She picked up the bag with great effort and put it on her shoulders, then closed the door and walked into the house humming a little tune. It didn't matter whether she took care of one child or two children, as it was not something she had not taken care of before.

In the capital, Jiang Shanhe's residence is well taken care of! So there is no pressure at all, it's just a small matter~
