Yang Si Niang wanted to leave on her own, but the Su family left on official business. Both groups left.
Su Ruojin asked, "Dad, do you know why you were transferred to Songjiang Prefecture?"
Before receiving the transfer order from the court, the Minister of Personnel, Lord Fan, had actually written a letter to give some reminders.
"The flood in the south seems to be serious in the Songjiang Prefecture area. The emperor has discussed with the Ministry of Personnel to let me serve as the Tongpan."
The Tongpan was in charge of matters such as military and civilians, money, grain, household registration, taxes and labor service, and judicial trials.
Su Ruojin seemed to be thinking, "Dad, the court asked you to investigate why the flood in Songjiang Prefecture was so serious?"
This is exactly what I mean. If the river embankments in Songjiang Prefecture were well managed, even if there was a flood, it would not be so serious.
Sure enough, the position was promoted, but the responsibilities also became heavier. The transfer order from the court has arrived. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, Su Ruojin will support Su Yanli.
"Then hurry up and prepare to go to Songjiang Prefecture."
Traveling in ancient times was very different from traveling today. From Bian Jing to Songjiang Prefecture, it was more than a thousand miles away, and one had to travel both by land and water, so one had to be well prepared.
"Dad, you just prepare for the handover of the government office, and I'll take care of the travel."
Su Yanli smiled and said, "Okay."
It’s good to have a good daughter. He only needs to focus on the affairs of the government and doesn’t have to worry about anything else. It’s great!
Although Su Ruojin was reluctant to leave Weizhou where she had lived for more than two years, she was also excited at the thought of going to Jiangnan. There were small bridges, flowing water, and graceful and prosperous people there. She had long been longing for it, and she didn't expect that she could take advantage of her father's public travel. It was really nice.
While Su Ruojin was asking Ye Huaizhen how to run the shop and settle the accounts after it was pawned, she was also preparing food, clothing, housing and transportation for the trip. Thinking that Yang Si Niang also wanted to return to Yulin, she made a tent for her.
"This is a tent that you can use to stay overnight in case you can't find a place to stay. You can fold it up and put it in your backpack. It doesn't take up much space and it's not heavy. Is that okay?"
Yang Si Niang liked it as soon as she saw it: "Ajin, how are you so smart." Last year, when she came out of Yulin, she had no place to stay at night. She was either drenched by the rain or soaked by the dew. It was so miserable. Now it’s great to have this small tent.
Obviously, parting is a very sad thing, but because of the various small items prepared by Su Ruojin, everyone was immersed in the excitement of trying out these small items.
"Why is this quilt so light, like a pocket?"
Su Ruojin specially made a duck down quilt, which was thin but very warm.
"This one too. Squeeze out the air inside and fold it up to be light and small. Just put it in a backpack. Isn't that very convenient?"
In addition to these, Su Ruojin also made a lightweight small iron pot, storable pills for preventing headaches and fevers, fire starters, etc. Of course, it was difficult to carry these things all the time, so she also made a simple and foldable small cart, which was convenient, practical and labor-saving.
Yang Si Niang nodded and praised repeatedly, "Ajin is really good. This time I am really blessed by you."
Su Ruojin chuckled, "The main reason is that I also want to enjoy the scenery while traveling. I can't just enjoy the scenery without eating. Of course, I have to eat well, sleep well, and enjoy the scenery!"
As expected, Ah Jin is a man who knows how to enjoy life. Yang Si Niang is now full of admiration for him. She took a deep breath and said, "Ah Jin, I know how to spend the rest of my life."
Well……
He seemed very happy just now, how come he is talking about life all of a sudden?
"Arong..." When Su Ruojin thought about the separation at this moment and not knowing when they would meet again in the future, her nose felt sore and she couldn't help wanting to cry.
She went to Jiangnan, still with her family, just traveling from one place to another, really traveling and working at the same time, but Yang Si Niang...
The two looked at each other and couldn't help crying.
"Ajin——"
The visitor interrupted their sadness.
Su Ruojin turned around, "Brother Jin..."
"You're not going back to the capital, but going directly to Jiangnan from here?"
Su Ruojin nodded and looked behind him, "Is my brother back?"
"In the front yard."
The Su family was about to leave, and Zhao Lan's arrival was within Su Ruojin's expectations.
Thinking that he would not be able to see his young lady for three years, Zhao Lan wished he could go to Jiangnan with the Su family, "Ajin..." his eyes were full of reluctance.
Yang Si Niang left tactfully, "Ah Jin, I will take these things away. I won't be polite to you."
"Okay." Su Ruojin said, "I'll come find you tomorrow."
"Okay." Yang Si Niang left the Su family with a big backpack.
The maids and servants around also left tactfully.
There were only two people left in the courtyard where Su Ruojin lived. Zhao Lan hugged her tightly in his arms, "Ajin, can you not go to Jiangnan with the teacher?"
"This... I'm afraid I can't do that." Su Ruojin was reluctant to leave Zhao Lan, but she and him still had a lifetime to live with. However, before getting married, she only had three years with her family. She wanted to be with her parents.
"Ajin..." Zhao Lan buried his head in the young lady's neck and said sullenly, "You are so cruel."
Su Ruojin was so embarrassed by his accusation that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Zhao Lan, we're getting married at the age of 18, and the rest of my life is yours. In these three years, can't you just give me to my parents?"
"In no mood."
"Humph!" Su Ruojin said deliberately, "Dr. Su certainly didn't expect to teach a student who would steal his daughter."
"The teacher will definitely be considerate of the students."
Su Ruojin: ...
Ever since he found out that students were trying to snatch his daughter away, Su Yanli has been treating Zhao Lan with indifference and showing no consideration at all.
Yang Si Niang carried her backpack back to her sister's home. It was a hot June day, and she walked along the street under the shade of the trees. As she walked, she looked at the practical little items that A Jin had bought for her. She thought to herself that she would be on the road in two days, and these things would surely be very useful.
“Arong…”
Hearing the familiar voice, Yang Si Niang suddenly looked up, "You... why are you here too?"
Zhao Lan came to see Ajin. Yang Si Niang was not surprised. She didn't expect that General Ning would also come. For a moment, she was surprised and flustered, and then bitterness surged in her heart.
Ning Qilang stopped in front of the young lady and asked, "I heard you are going back to Yulin?"
The man had deep eyes, and the moment he saw her, a layer of faint light suddenly passed through his eyes, which were as calm as a pool of thick ink, but it also seemed as if there was a thick fog that could not be dispersed.
Yang Si Niang lowered her head when she was stared at, and the fingers on the pull rod trembled slightly.
The young lady pursed her lips and said nothing.
Ning Qilang lowered his head again, "Is it okay if I don't reply?"
Hearing this, Yang Si Niang looked up at him and said, "What's the harm in staying?"
Ning Qillang's eyes were filled with silence and depth, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Yang Si Niang seemed to know the answer and bowed her head again, "Thank you for coming to see me."
But, that's it.
She raised her head and smiled slightly, "I wish General Ning good health and a smooth life!" After saying that, she pulled the backpack with one hand and waved with the other.
Goodbye, little general!
Maybe never again!
But, thank you for saving me, teaching me swordsmanship, and thank you for ever liking such an ordinary girl!
Seeing the young lady walking further and further away, Ning Qilang couldn't help but chase after her.
"Young General, please stop!"
The young lady neither looked back nor stopped. Her figure gradually walked away and disappeared in Ning Qilang's sad eyes.
Ah Rong...
Ning Ba Niang looked at her brother who stood like a stone pillar. Even if she was a beggar, she and her brother had a chance. But she was the daughter of a spy from an enemy country, so they were destined not to be together.
"The young lady likes you, brother."
I left because I liked it. (End of this chapter)
