Lin Menghan, who had just changed shifts, turned around and said, "The sky will dawn in two hours, Sister Jingqiu, and they seem to be discussing going to the imperial capital." โ€

Yuan Fang rubbed his head and said: "The wine yesterday was really strong, I didn't drink much before I got drunk, oops, my head hurts, this wine is not good, on the head." โ€

Lin Menghan glanced at Yuan Fang and said, "Brother-in-law, you haven't drunk much?" You've drunk several bowls when I see you, and those are bowls, not wine glasses. โ€

Yuan Fang said disapprovingly: "That can only mean that this wine is not good, not that I can't drink enough." By the way, what about Xia Yi? How is she? She didn't drink less yesterday. โ€

Lin Menghan pointed to the tent not far away: "I slept like a pig." โ€

Yuan Fang smiled: "This girl, no matter how I persuaded her before, I didn't drink it, it seems that I was really happy yesterday." โ€

Lin Menghan looked at the hut that was very warm in the cold wind, and said with some envy: "Of course, everyone is happy for Sister Jingqiu." โ€

Seeing that Huo Bingyan's expression was a little lonely, Yuan Fang stopped her shoulders and walked back: "What? Are you homesick too? โ€

Huo Bingyan didn't hide it, nodded and said, "Well, I don't know if my father and mother are still there, and there are still people in the family." โ€

Yuan Fang knew Huo Bingyan's background, she was different from Yu Jingqiu, and it was almost impossible to find her family.

Tightening his arms, Yuan Fang smiled and said, "Your family, well, has a wise brother-in-law, a silly younger brother, and many, many good sisters." โ€

Huo Bingyan turned her head to look at Yuan Fang, choked up and said, "Well, there are many, many sisters in my family, and a stupid brother-in-law. โ€

Yuan Fang feigned anger: "You dare to call me stupid, Xiao Nizi, look at how I clean you up." As he spoke, he pounced on Huo Bingyan with his teeth and claws, Huo Bingyan burst into tears and laughed, screaming and dodging, and the gloom and sentimentality just now were swept away.

At dawn, Yu Zhan's family had decided to follow Yu Jingqiu to move to the imperial capital, just like Tong Xinlan said, if it wasn't for the search for Yu Jingqiu, they would have left Nanzhou a long time ago, they have lived in Nanzhou for more than ten years, during which they have experienced several Japanese looting, fortunately, the vicinity of Tawan Village is a large military camp of the state army, and the Japanese people did not dare to get too close, so the villagers of Tawan Village have been spared many times.

Yu Zhan has been suppressed by the village management, although he is not hungry, but his life is not rich, and there is nothing valuable at home, after Yu Zhan agreed to go to the imperial capital, the family began to be busy, and soon packed up, and then talked all night, almost all night.

As soon as the morning dawned, Yu Zhan ran to the big poplar tree in the backyard with a hoe, dug out the savings of these years, and handed them over to Yu Jingqiu, he knew that the pain of being abandoned could not be compensated for with money, but this was the only thing he could do now.

Yu Jingqiu wanted to refuse, but Yu Zhan insisted again and again, Yu Jingqiu probably understood Yu Zhan's intentions, and reluctantly accepted the ten taels of silver saved by the family to save money.

Yu Jingqiu was originally worried that her father and mother had no silver, the prices in the imperial capital were much higher than here, Yu Jingqiu's military salary was a lot, but it was still a little difficult to support the family in this way, not to mention that the housing prices in the imperial capital were ridiculously high, and any hut would cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, Yu Jingqiu didn't have so much money, and she only had Yuan Fang to count on now, she believed that Yuan Fang would have a way.

Yu Zhan has his own plans, they all saw the gifts that Huo Bingyan and Lin Menghan brought last night, but they were scared a lot at that time, those are all rare good tonics, which one is priceless, Yu Zhan has already calculated, when he arrives in the imperial capital, he will sell these precious herbs, and then buy a small house, and then use the remaining money to do some small business.

Yu Jingqiu has no opinion on this, anyway, the gift was given by Ren Fei and Yan Yue, she will pay back this favor slowly, as for what to do with those gifts, it depends on her father's wishes.

As soon as the morning dawned, Tong Xinlan, Lu Xiaohui and Yu Jingxiang began to be busy cooking on the fire, but there was not much food at home, not enough for so many people to eat, although everyone brought dry food, but Yu Jingqiu also wanted to do a part of the friendship of the landlord, so he took some silver and sold some food from nearby neighbors, which was a heart.

Tawan Village, built by the forest and the sea, the people in the village mainly make a living from fishing, because of the geographical environment, the food that can be grown is limited, and the villagers of this small mountain village are naturally reluctant to buy expensive rice, basically cornmeal or corn and the like, so the breakfast seems a little shabby, but everyone is a veteran, and they don't care about these, and they are very satisfied to be able to eat a mouthful of hot.

Cornmeal porridge, salted fish, and pickled scallop meat or something, Yu Zhan took out almost all the inventory at home to entertain Yuan Fang and others, but he was still very worried that a big man like Yuan Fang would not be used to eating these rough foods, so he kept dissuading Jingqiu, and bought a local chicken from a neighbor with the only few copper plates left, and as a result, the salted fish and pickled vegetables were very suitable for Yuan Fang's taste, and this product ate several bowls of coarse rice porridge alone, but no one moved, and finally cheapened Yu Qingfeng's little two mouthfuls and Yu Jingxiang's little girl.

After eating and preparing to leave, Yuan Fang looked in the direction of the village and wondered, "It's strange, why didn't Zhong Mingde show up?" It's not like his character. โ€

Yu Jingqiu heard a lot of things about Zhong Mingde last night, and she didn't have a good impression of this person: "Brother-in-law, you are all ready, and you can leave at any time." โ€

Yuan Fang nodded, and glanced back at Yu Zhan and Tong Xinlan, who had a somewhat unpleasant face on horseback: "Jingqiu, can uncle and aunt?" โ€

Yu Jingqiu nodded: "It's okay, I'll take care of it." โ€

Yuan Fang nodded: "Okay, let's go." โ€

Yu Zhan and Tong Xinlan's family are not very good at horseback riding, and the speed of the team is not very fast, as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, Zhong Mingde rushed over, followed by a carriage that looked a little shabby.

Zhong Mingde smiled and said, "Lord Yuan, I heard that Lao Yu and they were going to go to the imperial capital with you, so I went to the next village early in the morning to borrow a carriage for them. โ€

Yuan Fang glanced at the carriage, then at the old horse pulling the carriage, thanked him and said: "I really have a heart, I will accept the carriage, forget about this horse, but I can't take advantage of you, Jingqiu." โ€

Yu Jingqiu understood, took out three taels of silver and handed it to Zhong Mingde and said, "These silver should be enough." โ€

Three taels of silver, it is indeed enough to buy a two-wheeled carriage, Zhong Mingde looked bitter, he wanted to use this to ease the relationship with Yu Zhan's family, but people didn't appreciate it, and he couldn't help it.

Accepting the silver, Zhong Mingde and Yuan Fang said a few polite words, and diligently helped Yu Zhan move things to the carriage, and said in a sincere tone: "Old Yu, to be honest, I have done a lot of things that are not very good to you over the years, I don't deny this, everyone has a three-parent, it's human nature for me to do this, I don't expect you to forgive or anything, those are all, I'll tell you, although there are some things I don't do authentically, but I never want to drive you to a dead end, you may not know, In fact, in the past few years, the county has helped you pull in the few orders. I don't expect you to help me with anything, as long as you don't hate me. โ€
