Gu Xin had heard her aunt mention it yesterday, and upon hearing this, she advised, "Xue'er, why don't you stay with Fifth Aunt? My brother and I can make arrangements. Besides, that's my hometown, and I'm very familiar with it."
Gu Yingxue shook her head: "No, I'll go to Qingzhou and meet up with you all. Brother Enzi will accompany me to Linzhou, and he'll take me to Qingzhou. My parents will definitely let me go too. My mother has my father with her, and Sister Niannian, Renren, and Xiaomingyue will also go to Linzhou. I'll go back after I get to Qingzhou. I need to find the way first so that after my mother finishes her confinement and feels better, I can take her to see my sister."
Gu Xin had always known that Gu Nian and Gu Ren had a good relationship with Peng Yizhu, and the three of them got along well. So, she didn't ask any more questions when Gu Yingxue said that. She also had other people she got along well with besides the Gu family, such as Xiaoyu, Yiyi, and Hanhan, so she didn't think much of it.
Gu Yingxue insisted on doing so, so Cheng Huaijin didn't say anything.
He wanted to visit Lord Gu and Madam Gu, but he was carrying Xiao Yu's ashes, and Madam Gu was giving birth, so he was afraid of offending them.
He planned to ask Gu Shouxin later whether going to Sanchakou Village in Qingzhou first, then to Linzhou, and then to the capital would delay his journey.
...
Cheng Huaijin brought up the matter during lunch.
After listening, Grandpa Gu said, "Your grandma and I haven't been back to the village for several years. This time, we've decided to go with you. Xiao Jin, your second uncle has already had someone prepare Xiao Yu's grave. It's located in the old house. A geomancer has checked it out, and it has the best feng shui so that she can rest in peace."
Cheng Huaijin said gratefully, "Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma, thank you, Second Uncle."
Grandma Gu glanced at him and said, "What are you thanking me for? The greatest thanks you can give us are if you raise Yun-ge'er well in the future. Over the past year, Yun-ge'er has become familiar with Xiao Qi and the others. As his uncle, it is perfectly reasonable for you to take him away, but before you return to the west, you should let Yun-ge'er stay in the Gu family."
Grandma Gu usually doesn't speak to ask for your opinion; she usually tells you the final result directly.
Cheng Huaijin naturally couldn't refuse, and besides, he didn't plan to bring Yun Ge'er along on this trip to Sanchakou Village.
After Grandpa and Grandma Gu finished speaking, Gu Shouxin gave his opinion: "You can go to Linzhou, but when you get to the capital, you will travel by land, while Eunuch Fu and the officials will travel by water. When you finish your work and go to the capital, you will only be a few days later than them."
Cheng Huaijin nodded: "That's good. I was just worried that by the time I got to the capital, they would already be on their way back."
Gu Shouxin smiled and shook his head: "You don't need to worry about that. This is the first time these countries have interacted, and the journey is long. Our emperor is generous and will definitely keep the princes and princesses of these countries for a while. I'm afraid they won't have left even when we arrive in the capital."
Cheng Huaijin thought about it and agreed. This time, apart from the King of Liusha Kingdom who had not returned to the Goddess Kingdom for many years, none of the other kings and rulers came to the Great Zhou. Only princes, princesses and one or two important ministers came. If they wanted to stay and play, it would not take up any time at all.
Cheng Huaijin had also heard that Gu Shouxin had been transferred to Kunzhou after passing the imperial examination with top honors, and that four years had passed since then. Kunzhou had developed, and it was likely that he would be able to be transferred back to the capital this time.
