Logically speaking, there is still some distance between the capital of Longqing Kingdom and the city of Liuhua Kingdom.
However, there are many Longqing people in that place, so even though many people know that the journey will take about ten days, many people still want to go.
Among them, the Xu family and the Mu family, as well as the people from several big families that were once controlled, including the Luo family, the Mu family, the Xu family, and the Feng family, rarely came out together again.
Mu Qiping, who was standing by the official road, stretched his neck and looked for a while, and finally saw a familiar carriage approaching.
He jumped out excitedly, the car stopped, and Xu Hanshan stuck his head out of the car.
"I knew you had a bad temper. How about it? Does it feel good to be blown by the wind for half a day?"
Mu Qiping didn't think there was anything wrong with coming early.
"When I think about meeting Miss Wen and attending her wedding, I can't wait to work overtime tonight. By the way, why haven't the people from the Luo and Feng families arrived yet? If they don't come soon, I'm really leaving!"
As soon as he finished speaking, hearty laughter came from a distance.
"Brother Mu, you're still as impatient as ever. We only prepared a few extra gifts, but you couldn't wait any longer."
When the Luo family's carriage started up, revealing the somewhat thin face of the old woman, Mu Qiping and Xu Hanshan were both stunned.
Immediately, he hurried forward to greet him.
"Grandpa Luo, I didn't expect that you would be the one to join in the fun this time."
Old Mrs. Luo smiled and waved her hand.
"I have to go this time..."
Seeing that she was worried, several people looked at each other but did not ask any more questions.
Just like that, several families and more than ten carriages headed towards the Linji Village in a mighty procession.
At first I didn’t feel much on the road, but the closer I got to Longqing Kingdom, the more I felt that there were really a lot of carriages and horses coming here.
In the carriage, Old Mrs. Luo kept opening the window and looking at the scenery outside.
"Mother, we're just ahead at Critical Village. Are we going to see the child soon?"
When the child was mentioned, the man who had been supporting the woman became a little nervous.
The old woman was also a little excited.
"You are just too old-fashioned. If I hadn't liked Yan Zi back then, you wouldn't have been able to marry her as your concubine.
If it weren't for what happened in her family back then, and I had helped her, you wouldn't have had this blessing.
You've married someone, and you still don't know how difficult it is for your children to make things difficult for you. All your life, you've been a son who's made your mother angry.
As a husband, you make your wife feel wronged and sad. As a father... you are unqualified. No matter whether the child was born before or by Yan Zi, everyone blames you and hates you..."
Being scolded by his mother like this, Lord Luo lowered his head and did not dare to refute.
"When it comes to being an official, you can only invent and research according to what others say. As for creation, you can barely come up with something according to what they say.
But... after all, it's nothing new. I really regret that I taught you to be so stubborn and inflexible."
Lord Luo hung his head. "Mother, don't be angry. This time I'll go and coax the fourth child back."
"Coax her, she doesn't need you as a father now, so don't coax her anymore. Just do your best to befriend her if you can. If not, don't disgust Xiao Si'er anymore."
Old Mrs. Luo really had no way to deal with this son. It wouldn't be bad to say he was a bad person, but he would always do his best to complete anything he was asked to do.
Say he is fickle.
Apart from the two wives he had, he never had any affairs with other women.
But, this is the kind of person who has not done his job as a son, a father, or an official to the satisfaction of everyone.
The old lady rubbed her head. She really reflected a lot and felt that she had not raised her son correctly. However, she could not find what was wrong.
Knowing that scolding her son was useless, the old lady looked out the window again, but her thoughts turned to Xiao Si'er.
It was only after the Luo family escaped from the predicament this time that she learned that the master who rescued them from being controlled by others was actually the daughter of her granddaughter.
She had accidentally heard this news when she was trying to regain the power of the Luo family.
The source of information must be reliable.
The Luo family was already in a precarious situation, and now that they had such a granddaughter, of course they would make friends with her.
But she also knew that her fourth granddaughter, who had disappeared due to an ambush, no longer needed them.
"What a great connection! How can someone who can deal with that old bastard be a simple person?
My Luo family could have returned to its former prosperity, but now we can only maintain good relations. I am unwilling to accept this. I really am unwilling to accept this."
The old nanny who had been serving her tried to comfort her.
"Old Madam, there's no need to worry so much. The most important thing for us families to do on this trip is to find a way to eliminate the poison.
After all, this is a big deal.”
After hearing this, Old Lady Luo no longer regretted the rise of the Luo family. Indeed, the reason why these families went there was because of the blood poison.
Only by removing these blood poisons can they become like normal people and no longer be controlled by others.
Lord Luo was actually also trying hard to recall his missing fourth daughter. To be honest, it had been so long that he would occasionally remember that one of his daughters had disappeared while burning incense.
But as for appearance, I have long had no idea about it, just like my two wives.
When the little girl disappeared, she seemed to be around fourteen or fifteen. Was it fourteen, or fifteen?
A long time had passed. After their daughter disappeared, several children cried together.
But later on, his family fell into poverty and was framed. If he had not been able to make a special object, the Luo family would have been wiped out long ago.
It is said that the daughter is living a good life now, but will she still recognize him?
Mr. Luo from the Manufacturing Department, who had not been anxious all the way, began to feel uneasy at this moment.
Time passed quickly in this anxiety and arrived at Critical Village, which should now be called Critical City.
Seeing the streets crisscrossing and people coming and going, many young men were standing there in groups of three or two, occasionally glancing at some workshops not far away.
From afar, the aroma of food coming from the workshop made people who had been walking for a long time swallow their saliva.
"What's in here? Why does it smell so good?"
"Dear guests, come quickly. What we sell here are sweet-skin duck and aromatherapy duck freshly baked in our workshop.
There are free tastings, so pick the one you like. A duck is inexpensive, a duck is delicious, and a duck makes you look great as a gift..."
Next to the workshops on the main road, several shop assistants started shouting loudly when they saw customers coming.
This also attracted the curiosity of several big furniture owners to move forward.
"Hey, these ducks look so appetizing."
Mu Qiping looked at the rows and rows of sweet-skinned ducks hanging there. Before he even reached the edge of the field, he could smell the sweet fragrance.
