The Li family's fleet is very low-key, but there are four larger carriages and two carts specially loaded with luggage.

Because the river was frozen at the moment, the Li family chose to travel by land.

The members of the Jiang family and the Zhou family sent the Li family's convoy a dozen miles outside the city gate.

Li Yan and Jiang turned around and said to the crowd: "Everyone doesn't have to send you off. Sending you off for thousands of miles, you have to say goodbye at the end, so... come here."

Zhou Hanyu was supported by Jiang Yanzhi, her eyes were still red, she held Jiang's hand tightly, choked up and said, "Sister, I really can't bear to part with you, this time we part, and we don't know when we will meet next time."

Mrs. Jiang was a little thinner than before, but she was in good spirits. She held Zhou Hanju's hand tightly, and comforted her softly: "Sister, don't be sad. There is always a banquet in the world. As long as our hearts are together, we will be separated and we will be a family." people."

Speaking of this, Jiang Shi was also a little sad, took a deep breath, and said, "When I leave, the most worried thing is you and Yan Zhi, you have always been the most worried, but you must pay attention to your body."

A few days ago, Zhou Hanyu was worried that the Zhou family was sick, but now he is a little better.

Knowing that Mrs. Jiang meant that she cared too much about her mother's affairs, Zhou Hanyu sighed with a desolate expression: "I will remember my sister's words. From now on, I won't take care of those messy things about my mother's family, so I just leave my life alone." Live well and it will be done."

Only then did Jiang nodded in relief, then looked at Jiang Yanzhi and said, "I entrust you to take good care of your parents, and your wife and children, too. The prosperity of our Jiang family depends entirely on you alone." gone."

Jiang Yanzhi nodded slowly, and said in a calm tone: "Sister, don't worry, I know everything."

"Eldest sister, you can't be too biased, we still have me in our family." Jiang Youzhi suddenly came up and said quite dissatisfied.

Jiang smiled helplessly, "Of course I know you are there, but you are not married, you have to get married first and then start a career."

Jiang Youzhi blushed when his sister said it, and stopped talking in embarrassment.

Jiang Shi sighed again, "My sister can't attend your wedding, will you blame my sister?"

Jiang Youzhi shook his head quickly, and said seriously: "Sister, what are you talking about, I know you have always wanted to see me get married, and you are the most sad that you cannot attend my wedding."

Jiang's tears finally couldn't help falling down. She wiped the corners of her eyes lightly, and still smiled and said, "Sister, I hope you and your younger siblings will have a good relationship for a hundred years and grow old together. Hurry up and add a big fat nephew to my sister." "

Mrs. Jiang bid farewell to her natal family in this way, while Mrs. Li was greeting the old lady of the Xu family and Mrs. Xie.

"Old sister, you said that we have only known each other for a few days, and we are about to say goodbye. I really can't bear it." Mrs. Li said, holding the old lady of the Xu family by the hand.

"Yes, old sister, our fate is really rare, it's a pity, I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other often in the future." Mrs. Xu also said very reluctantly.

Mrs. Li and the old lady of the Xu family met at the funeral. The two really hit it off and they have a common language.

Mrs. Xu is almost seventy this year. The Xu family is a well-established family. It also started with meritorious service back then. Mrs. Xu is the daughter of a military general.

"It's okay, I'll write you a letter, let's be some...pen pals too." Mrs. Li said cheerfully.

Mrs. Xu nodded again and again, "My sister is still thoughtful, and I will write a letter when I get back."

Seeing the two elders chatting so enthusiastically, Mrs. Xie interjected with a smile, "Then I'll join in the fun too, old lady, don't believe too much."

"How could it be? I am also a half-literate person now, and I like reading books and newspapers the most." Mrs. Li said brazenly.

These words immediately amused Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xie.

"By the way, there is one more happy event I haven't told you, old sister. Our family is about to marry Mrs. Sun's family." Mrs. Xu suddenly broke out a big news.

"Really!" Mrs. Li squinted her eyes and said in surprise, "Is it Xiao Wu's girl?"

Mrs. Xie smiled and nodded, "Yes, it is the eldest grandson of the Xu family, but he is an incredible young talent, but the weak crown has already passed the Jinshi examination, and he is as knowledgeable as his father and third grandfather."

"It turns out that he is Master Xu's son, so it must be unmistakable." Mrs. Li also echoed her praise.

She knew that Xu Hanlin was the boss of Jiang Yanzhi and Li Yan, but now that he was promoted, he went to the Ministry of Punishment to be a secretary, and Jiang Yanzhi was promoted to take his position.

"Xiao Wu is also very good. She is kind and has a good temper. Our family needs such a bride." Mrs. Xu obviously liked Sun Xiaowu very much, and she did not forget to praise her.

"When the time comes, write to me and tell me the date of the wedding, and I will definitely give you a big gift." Mrs. Li said with a rare generosity, waving her hand.

The laughter from Mrs. Li's side weakened some of the sadness of parting, and the group of people reluctantly bid farewell for a long time, and the convoy finally set off before it was almost dark.

Sitting in the carriage, Mrs. Li lifted the curtain to look at the gradually shrinking majestic city wall, and she couldn't help sighing, "Oh, it's like a dream. My old lady never thought that she could come to the capital in her lifetime, and even He even became relatives with the royal family, I really dare not write like that in the drama~~"

"Mother, close the window quickly, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold." Mrs. Jiang leaned over and helped Mrs. Li close the window. She also looked at the distant city wall, but there was no nostalgia in her eyes, only hope for the future. look forward to.

The carriage arrived at the post station before nightfall.

The two red lanterns outside the station gave off warm light, making this cold winter night a bit more warm and lively.

The wind and snow still didn't stop, Li Yan took the low stool and carefully helped the old lady and daughter-in-law to get off the carriage.

"Both children are asleep. Nanny Lin and Chuan'er are looking after them. We will take them out after we settle down." Jiang said to her husband in a low voice.

Li Yan nodded, sighed, and said, "Brother Kang and Brother Jian are still not energetic. In the past, when they saw such heavy snow, they ran out to play like crazy, but now they are very quiet."

Mrs. Jiang looked up at her two sons who had already got off the carriage, and seeing that they were both sleepy and lacking in energy, she couldn't help sighing, "They were brought up with Mei Meier's help, and they were brought up with her. The feelings are naturally unusual..."

When Jiang said this, thinking of her daughter and son-in-law, she couldn't help but frowned. It's been almost a month, and there is no news of Mei Meier and Shanqing. Although she knows they are not dead, no one can be seen, I can't let go of a hanging heart, and I don't know where the girl is now, whether she is doing well...
