Chapter 232
The next day, everyone got up very early, because Mrs. Jiang had booked a return journey today, so they had to go back early and take the boat back to Zhangshui Town at noon.

Zhou Muyi had already said goodbye to Daoist Siming and the brothers in the Taoist temple last night, and they didn't see him off in the morning.

After breakfast, Zhou Muyi left Siming Taoist Temple with several members of the Li family.When he walked outside the mountain gate, Zhou Muyi reluctantly stopped and looked into the temple for a long time.

"Zhou Jushi, we will meet again in the future." Zhixing Xiaodaotong, the only Zhike who came out to see him off, said to Zhou Muyi with a smile, but there was also some reluctance in his expression.

"I'll come back and learn kung fu from the Taoist master after I get my parents' permission!" Zhou Muyi said with Tong Zhixing as if he had made up his mind.

Zhixing didn't say anything, he just saluted Zhou Muyi and wished them a smooth journey.

"Ah Yi, let's go, it's getting late." Jiang Youzhi put his hands on Zhou Muyi's shoulders and said in a deep voice.

Zhou Muyi took one last look at the mountain gate, nodded, and followed the Li family members down the mountain.

Although the old saying goes that going up the mountain is easy and going down the mountain is difficult, but Li Meier thinks it is not difficult to go down the mountain. As long as you control yourself not to fall or slide down, going down the mountain is much easier than going up the mountain. It took them less than an hour to reach the four. At the foot of Mingshan.

At this moment, the carriage of Li Xin's family was already waiting for them at the foot of the mountain. Besides the coachman, the butler Li Yi also came with him. When he saw the Li family members, he hurried up to greet them.

"It can be regarded as waiting for you. You didn't go back yesterday. The master was very worried, so he asked me to come here early in the morning and wait for Sixth Master and Sixth Grandma."

Jiang smiled apologetically, and said: "Yesterday, something happened unexpectedly. We had to stay in the Taoist temple on the mountain for one night as a last resort. It made third brother worry. I will make an apology with him when I go back later."

"It's not that serious. I'm just afraid that something might happen to you on the mountain. It's okay to see you now, and this old slave has an explanation to the master." Li Butler waved his hand quickly and said.

After exchanging a few words of pleasantries, they hurried into the carriage.Because it was still early and there were no cars on the official road, they went all the way back to the state capital without hindrance.

Li Xin didn't go to the shop today either, and was waiting at home to see the Li family members. Seeing that they had returned safely, she felt relieved.

Mrs. Jiang said sorry and thankful words to Li Xin, and introduced Zhou Muyi who came with her.But because they have to catch the boat back to Zhangshui Town at noon.Mrs. Jiang also made long stories short, and after explaining the cause and effect clearly, she quickly packed up her things and got on the carriage to the pier.

Li Xin sent the Li family to the pier together, and Jiang Youzhi naturally followed. After reluctantly leaving with his sister's family, he watched them board the boat.

Jiang was also very reluctant to part with her younger brother, standing on the boat and waving at him desperately, and told him to go home during the Chinese New Year.

The boat trip back was much easier than when she came here, because she knew that Jiang Shanqing was seasick, so Jiang prepared a lot of seasickness medicine in advance, and after taking a bunch of medicines, Jiang Shanqing's seasickness symptoms finally improved a lot, until she arrived at Zhangshui Town Wharf, It's just that I vomited once.

A group of people got off the boat at the pier, and immediately hired two bullock carts in the garage, one for people and the other for things.

Mrs. Jiang thought about sending Zhou Muyi home first. Although Zhou Muyi was still a little apprehensive, he had already arrived in Zhangshui Town, and it was impossible for him not to go home, so he could only respond awkwardly.

Mrs. Jiang sent Zhou Muyi to the door of the house, and when she saw him enter the house, she left with peace of mind.

A group of people hurried to their home again, and when they were almost home, Li Meier saw Kang Geer wandering around the door from a distance.

Brother Kang also saw the bullock cart, so he shouted at home, "Father, mother and sister are back~" and then ran over to greet him.

Li Yan was the first to jump out of the car, hugged Kang Geer, and kissed him on the cheek, "I miss my father, is Kang Geer good these days? Have you listened to grandma?"

Brother Kang seemed to be tickled by his father's stubble. He giggled and kept leaning back. When he saw Jiang Shi coming from behind, he quickly stretched out his chubby hand and acted like a baby to her. , "Mom, hug!"

Jiang also thought about her son so hard, her heart melted when he called her like that, she quickly took her son from Li Yan's hands, held her son in her arms and kissed again and again.

"Mother, Brother Kang's face is almost flushed by your kiss, please let him go." Li Meier pulled Jiang Shanqing, and said in the back very speechless.

"Sister! I'll kiss you too." Brother Kang thought that Li Meier was jealous, so he quickly got off Jiang Shi, ran to Li Meier, raised the other half of his face and said.

How could Li Meier, an older sister, disappoint her younger brother, "Hey!", and kissed Kang Geer's chubby face.

Brother Kang was giggling again, and then looked at Jiang Shanqing who was on the side.

Jiang Shanqing had some black lines, and quickly waved his hands: "That... I don't need it..."

Brother Kang was a little disappointed, but his attention was quickly attracted by the ox cart full of things behind him, and he ran over and exaggeratedly shouted: "A lot of things! Brother Kang wants it all!"

While the few people were talking, Mrs. Li had already brought her maids and women out to greet her.She also saw the ox cart full of things, and couldn't help but complained: "Didn't I tell you to buy less things? Why did you buy so much and spend so much money? You can't make it through this day." .”

"Mom! Let's go in and talk about what's going on. We've traveled by car and boat all the way, so we're already tired." Li Yan was already very experienced in dealing with his old lady, so he immediately stepped forward and said.

Mrs. Li still felt sorry for her son, so she didn't say anything, and the group entered the room talking and laughing.

Li Yan and Mrs. Jiang led the two children back to the room to change clothes and wash, and after cleaning up, they went to Mrs. Li's room again.

Nanny Lin was careful, she had already prepared snacks and warm tea, and they could eat and drink as soon as they sat down.

Mrs. Li looked at her son for a while, and then said with some distress: "He's dark and thin, and he must have not eaten well in the state capital."

Li Meier couldn't help laughing when she heard Mrs. Li's words, "Oh, grandma, how can you lose weight after only going there for a few days? I think Daddy has gained some weight. You don't know how good the food we eat in the state capital .”

Mrs. Li curled her lips and said unhappily: "That's because you didn't look carefully. I saw that you lost weight, but you are a girl who gained weight after going out for a while. You will be a big girl in a few years. I can't keep getting fat like this!"
