Ye Chen had already arranged all matters in Qi County and Lan County, and set off back to Kyoto. He was accompanied by Princess An Ning, Chen Qiu's master Bai Li, Pang Hu Hei Ying and Xing'er.
Lu Chenyuan and others set out from the northwest and separated before entering Zhaoyao Mountain. One team went south along Zhaoyao Mountain towards Yangshui, intending to return to Binzhou by water, which would be much faster than the route they took. The other team went east into Zhaoyao Mountain.
The snow wolf family of three was sent back to the Qishan Snow Plain by Xing'er. How they will move forward in the future depends on their own abilities.
Hongling is already well. After the Double Ninth Festival on September 9th, Hongling also got up and went to the northwest. She held the jade pendant tightly in her hand. Chen Yue was waiting for her, so she had to go back quickly.
When Hongling left, Chen Qiu brought three large carriages full of things, including medicinal herbs, specialties, and clothing, just like he did when he returned to the northwest before. Hongling's martial arts skills were not weak and she was now much better. Her biggest enemy was already in prison, so he was no longer worried about her on the road, but he still sent guards to go back with Hongling.
"This contains the wedding gift I gave to you and your brother. I may not be able to make it back in time, so I'll bring it back to you first." When Chen Qiu sent Hongling back, he gave her a box, a wooden box about two feet long.
"Okay, I'll accept it. When I come back, I'll definitely call you sister-in-law." Chen Qiu really liked Hong Ling's generosity, but it was a pity that such a carefree person was also going to move into this compound. At the same time, he felt that Chen Yue was really lucky.
When Ye Chen reached Zhaoyao Mountain, an old man blocked his way and said, "Sister Baili, can I go with you?" As soon as the old man spoke, Ye Chen frowned in the carriage. If everyone went, his house would be bustling.
"Don't go..." Bai Li was about to scold, but the old man immediately interrupted Bai Li, "I will go. I've been looking for you for ten years. I must go."
"Aren't you afraid that I will beat you?" Bai Li touched the long flute in his hand, a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Afraid... then I'm going too. I have no home anyway. You're the only one I know in the Great Yin Kingdom. I'll go wherever you go." The old man looked like a rogue, which was inconsistent with his white hair and beard.
"Yan Guqi, are you planning to follow me like this? If you don't mind that it's ugly, then I do." Bai Li couldn't persuade him, so she called the old man's real name in disgust.
Ye Chen froze in the carriage. "Yan?" Was that the person he thought he was? Outside, Yan Guqi chuckled, reached out, tugged at his hair, and yanked hard. His hair and beard appeared in his hand. "What white-haired old man?" He was clearly a handsome old man.
"Hey, hey, so this is what you look like? You're much prettier than me." Pang Hu couldn't help but be curious, so he rode his horse to Yan Guqi's side and looked at this weird old man.
"How old are you? Should I call you brother or uncle?" Pang Hu patted Yan Guqi and asked his question. He finally understood. The people he met recently were too weird. He didn't know how they maintained themselves. They all looked like they had regained their youth.
Master Xiaoqiu looks like a fairy. At first glance, she is not even older than me, but she is almost fifty years old and I have to call her aunt. This weird old man calls Master Xiaoqiu sister, so he must be older than me, but he really looks just a little older than me. I can't call him that casually. It would not be good if there is a generation difference. I should ask him how he maintains his looks tomorrow, otherwise Xiaoshu will dislike me.
"Then you can call me big brother. Calling me uncle is too old." Yan Guqi looked at Pang Hu with disdain and said, "Shave off your beard. It's too ugly."
Pang Hu pointed at himself and then at Yan Guqi, "Hey, didn't you also wear a big beard before? It was fake. Mine is a real one. You want it but I don't have it yet. Humph!" As he said that, he raised his big beard and walked to Black Hawk.
Yan Guqi joined the team, Black Hawk followed Xing'er all the time, and only Ye Chen sat in the carriage. It was already late autumn, and he kept touching the purse embroidered for him by Chen Qiu. He missed his Qiu'er very much.
Outside the carriage was the voice of Yan Guqi, and every time he spoke, he would add "Sister Baili". Ye Chen drew a picture of Shen Qiu in his mind, and every time he drew the mouth, Yan Guqi's sister Baili interrupted his dead end.
"Shut up right there!" Ye Chen couldn't bear it any longer and lifted the carriage curtain and yelled, "You are over forty years old, and you call me sister every day. Aren't you ashamed? I think you are noisy. If you don't shut up, don't follow me." After being interrupted for the fortieth time, Ye Chen finally scolded Yan Guqi severely.
"Sister Bai Li, can I beat him?" Yan Guqi looked at Bai Li aggrievedly.
Bai Li shook her head. "No, he's my disciple's husband. My job is to protect him. No one can touch him when I hand him over to my disciple. And he's right, you're really noisy."
Pang Hu was holding his laughter in until he almost got internal injuries, but he finally burst out laughing after Bai Li finished speaking.
"Big Beard, I can't beat him but I can beat you." As he said that, he spurred his horse to chase Pang Hu. At the moment when Pang Hu became angry and embarrassed, he had already galloped away on his horse.
Watching the two of them running away while playing, Xing'er covered her mouth and laughed. Black Hawk looked at Xing'er from the side and finally asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time, "How are you?" Xing'er was stunned at first, then lowered her head and tucked her wind-blown hair behind her ears, smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine, it's just... I miss my family a lot."
"Do you have any family members? In the northwest?" Xing'er shook her head after hearing this, "No, only the people in the Ye Mansion are my family members." Hei Ying was stunned and thought about it before grinning. Then Ziying was also a person from the Ye Mansion. Was he also among the people she was thinking of?
Without Yan Guqi's noisy voice, Ye Chen finally pictured Chen Qiu's appearance in his mind when they stopped to set up camp, drawing every stroke and even the hair correctly.
Chen Qiu takes care of the children and manages the family business at home. When Xing'er is away, she is busy all the time.
Mingyue had to stay in bed for two months because of the damage she suffered during childbirth. The two children were doing much better than expected. Mu Qing nicknamed them Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, and asked the old Duke to name them. Tuantuan was named Mu Chengze and Yuanyuan was named Mu Chengzhi.
However, due to congenital deficiencies, Yuanyuan was not as strong as Tuantuan. She fell ill just a few days after she was born. Fortunately, Lingshu was there, so she escaped with no serious consequences.
