"Go," Mr. Wu said without stopping him, "If Song Hui and his family agree, we will travel together. If they don't agree, don't force it."

"I understand, sir." Tai Yongning quickly saluted and then hurried to the front yard.

Song Hui, Qi Ming, and Teng Yu had just finished eating. Originally, their husband had a half-day holiday and they could go home. But the gentleman has guests, and as a disciple, it would be considered rude not to be able to wait on him.

They waited a little longer, the master saw off the guests, and it was the disciple's duty for them to go home.

What's more, when I go home, I am still reading and writing, so why not stay with my fellow students here?

Seeing Tai Yongning coming over in a hurry, the three brothers were surprised.

Song Hui was the first to ask, "What's wrong, Yong Ning? But did you have an order?"

Tai Yongning quickly shook his head and said with a smile, "Elder brother, I just said that I would return to my hometown during the New Year to follow my ancestors. If our families agree, he will take us with him! Not only are we going to Jiangnan, but we will also stay in Kyoto for a short time. My grandfather I have been given permission to travel, what about you, are you going?"

Sure enough, Song Hui's eyes lit up with excitement.

How many young people can be peaceful? They are very willing to travel.

"Of course!" Qi Ming responded first, "Traveling with your husband will not only open your eyes, but you will also have someone to take care of you. My father will definitely agree."

Teng Yu then responded, "I can go too!"

The last one was Song Hui, who had the most stable temperament and said, "If nothing happens, I can go. However, I still have to go back and discuss it with my family."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!" Qi Ming couldn't bear it anymore and asked the book boy to pack his things and go home.

Song Hui and Teng Yu were amused, but they were not willing to delay for a quarter of an hour, and then they both left.

Yongning waited for his grandfather and husband to drink to their heart's content before accompanying his grandfather to say goodbye.

The veteran drove Yongning and Yongfeng, who was even more excited after hearing the news, to the small courtyard, and then returned to Taijia Village.

The old man had a good drinking capacity, and he was a guest at the Wu family. How could he get so drunk in front of Mr. Sun Tzu?

So the carriage wandered home, and the cold wind blew again, and the drunkenness was almost gone. But he still smelled of alcohol...

As soon as she entered the house, Yang Lihua immediately went to the kitchen to make honey water.

Zhuzhu was playing in the west room. When she heard the noise, she ran out and happily took the candied haws brought back by her grandfather. But the next moment she covered her nose in disgust and complained in a sweet voice, "Grandpa smells so bad!"

The old man looked stern and replied, "Oh, I've been walking outside for a long time, do you still smell of alcohol?"

Just then Yang Lihua came in, and scolded her daughter with a rare cold face, "Grandpa went to have a guest for a drink. Even though he drank a little too much, he didn't forget to buy you candied haws. You held the candied haws in your hand and turned around to dislike grandpa. You don't look at me with such contempt. Damn it! Apologize to Grandpa quickly!"

If we talk about the whole family, the person Zhuzhu is most afraid of is her mother. She even strokes her grandfather's beard casually, but when her mother glares, she is like a mouse meeting a cat.

She quickly put down the candied haws, bowed obediently to her grandfather, then ran over and hugged his arm, apologizing in a sweet voice, "Grandpa, Zhuzhu is wrong! Grandpa doesn't stink, he smells good!"

Everyone laughed because the fat girl was so adaptable to the situation! Especially the old man, who ruffled his granddaughter's hair and laughed loudly and replied, "Grandpa is not angry, Zhuzhu is right. Grandpa smells of alcohol. Next time, grandpa should drink less, so as not to smoke up our baby Zhuzhu." It stinks!"

What he said made the fat girl feel even more guilty. She turned around and ran back to the west room. After a while, she picked up the pipe stem and stuffed it directly into her grandfather's hand.

"Grandpa, I'll give you the pipe rod!"

"Oh, our Zhuzhu is so awesome! The task grandpa gave you has been completed very well!" The old man touched the pipe stem, put his granddaughter on his knees, and drank a glass of honey water.

Yang Lihua was so funny that she chimed in and said, "This girl put the pipe rod in her treasure box and stayed there while eating. Not to mention, she also called Sesame Ball over and guarded it with her."

The old man became even more happy after hearing this, and quickly promised to buy candied haws for his granddaughter next time he goes to town.

At this time, Tai Jiye and Chen Zhao came back from the row house, and everyone gathered together to chat.

The day after tomorrow was the day when Chen Zhao's motorcade entered the grassland. Tai Jiye felt itchy, especially after negotiating some goods in the city, so he tentatively opened his mouth.

"Dad, I want to go for a walk in the grassland with Brother Chen. First of all, there is nothing to do at home, and my cat Dong'er can't sit still. Secondly, although the weaving method of cashmere clothes has been spread, how much business does our family have? There are still some, and I need to prepare some more cashmere.”

Unexpectedly, the old man actually agreed.

"You can go if you want, but it's too hard to go to the grassland in winter. Bring less people and goods, just follow Chen Zhao and gain experience. My family doesn't expect you to make a lot of money.

"Also, let's see if Yonglu Yongyue and Ruiyang can catch up with the trip. If they can, take all three of them with them. Good men can't be raised on a hot bed, so let them suffer a little. See the suffering in the world."

After that, he told Yang Lihua, "Boss, my wife, remember to bring a few books to the three boys. If it is difficult to write on the way, just recite them. Don't let them take it too easy. You must walk the way you should go, and you must not leave behind the books you should memorize." !”

Everyone looked strange when they heard this, even Tai Jiye forgot to be happy.

How did the three boys offend the old man? He was actually willing to throw them out to experience the wind and snow.

Just thinking about them rushing in the wind and snow, shivering with cold and having to endorse the book, makes me feel... so miserable!

Yang Lihua was also distressed, but as the old man said, no good boy can be successful without hard work. The hot bed is comfortable, but it is only suitable for lazy cats, not tigers!

"Okay, dad, don't worry, I will definitely make the arrangements." Yang Lihua responded, already planning to find the boys' last clothes and pants, and also prepare wolfskin kneepads, cashmere yarn to weave some windproof masks and gloves.

Everyone thought that was all, but they didn't expect that the old man's determination was much greater than they imagined. After only a moment, he said again.

"Also, eldest daughter-in-law, when the convoy has to be sent off, you have to prepare luggage for Yongning. Mr. Wu will take his four brothers back to their hometown to inherit their ancestors. Not only will they go to Jiangnan, but they will also stay in Kyoto. By then, Yong Ning can’t help but follow Mr. Wu to some banquets or poetry gatherings for scholars. Don’t let him be ignored because of his clothes. We are poor and rich, so we should try our best to be well prepared.”

Now everyone was even more surprised. Tai Jizu, who was rarely the most honest and obedient person, spoke up.

"Dad, why did you drive all the children out? The Chinese New Year is coming soon, should we let them stay at home for the whole winter, and then... in the spring...

The old man glared at his eldest son and rejected his proposal. (End of chapter)
