Chapter 1078
"Well, we will leave tomorrow, we will not delay for a day." Ba Ye laughed.

Ten days later, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. When the time comes, I will come back to participate in the palace banquet, and then I will be busy at the end of the year.

Since he returned to Beijing for disaster relief, fourth master entrusted him with the job of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.The end of the year is the busiest time for the Ministry of Internal Affairs.This is also the reason why fourth master is willing to give him a vacation at this time, because if it continues to delay, he will not be able to take it off if he wants to.

After Hongwang started going to school with his husband this year, he hardly had time to play anymore.Hearing that Ba Ye was willing to take him on vacation this time, he also jumped up happily.

Only Yaliqi, a little guy who was only a few months old, didn't know anything, lying in Mao Tongtong's arms and laughing foolishly.

Autumn is high and crisp, which is also a good time to travel.When the carriage left the city, Mao Tongtong lifted the curtain of the carriage and let the gentle breeze blow in through the window, making him very comfortable.

In fact, at the end of last year, Ba Ye lived with her in the mansion.But after all, that meeting was grounded, and he couldn't leave the house, and his mentality was completely different.This will be real relaxation.

"Master, this year I'm going to make a jar of sweet-scented osmanthus wine myself! I'll drink it during the Mid-Autumn Festival next year!" Mao Tongtong squinted his eyes.

"Okay! I'm looking forward to drinking your sweet-scented osmanthus wine next year!" Eighth Master said with a smile.

Mao Tongtong likes the taste of sweet-scented osmanthus very much. In this season of every year, Yileyuan's sweet-scented osmanthus cake, sweet-scented osmanthus honey and sweet-scented osmanthus wine are always available.She always said that she would try to make it by herself, but after so many years, Baye only ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she made once.

"Okay, I think I should make a few more pots. When the time comes, send one pot to Er Niang and one pot to Concubine Liang." Mao Tongtong happily counted on his fingers, and said: "By the way, I have to prepare a pot for my brother. Altar, he seems to be returning to Beijing to report on his duties."

Because of Ba Ye's grounding last year, Mao Mingxuan's official assessment results were affected.He was supposed to be promoted again, but he stopped.For this reason, Mao Tongtong felt very guilty for a while, and then it was Mao Mingxuan who wrote, saying that it would be a good thing for him to settle down for another two years, which made her feel better.

"Your elder brother is going to go one step further this time!" Ba Ye said.

Fourth master had mentioned it to him before, and he admired Mao Mingxuan very much.Because of the eighth master, Kangxi still suppressed Mao Mingxuan, but the fourth master did not have this concern.His new ascension to the throne is just the time to train his own manpower.Those who were capable but could not be reused in the Kangxi Dynasty were the objects of fourth master's attention at this time.

The carriage wobbled for nearly two hours before arriving at the destination.The steward of Zhuangzi had been notified a long time ago, and had already led a group of people to greet him at the gate of Zhuangzi.

"Well, it's so good, even the air is full of the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus!" Getting out of the car, Mao Tongtong couldn't help taking a deep breath.

"The servant welcomes Lord Baylor and Mao Fangfujin!"

"Get up." Ba Ye smelled the fresh air and felt in a good mood.

At this time, it was almost time for lunch, Mao Tongtong and the others had a short rest, and the manager asked the kitchen to serve the food.

When you come to Zhuangzi, you will naturally have to eat something different from the one in the mansion.Live fish caught in the stream, dried wild mushrooms last winter, bacon made from wild game in winter, and of course some fresh wild vegetables this season.The person in charge has put in a lot of effort, trying to please Ba Ye and Mao Tongtong.After all, in a remote Zhuangzi like theirs, Baye and the others rarely come to live.Now that I finally have the opportunity to brush up the sense of presence, it is a wonderful brush!

For a few people who are used to the exquisite dishes in the mansion, such dishes with a local flavor are quite fresh.Not only Ba Ye and Mao Tongtong had big appetites, but even Hongwang ate an extra bowl of rice than usual.

After lunch, Mao Tongtong was so rare that he didn't feel sleepy, and actually took Ba Ye for a walk.

"Why is Tongtong so happy today?" Ba Ye asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Mao Tongtong was bouncing around even when he was walking, like a girl, "It feels like I haven't breathed such fresh air for a long time! This open world is much more comfortable than the square sky in the mansion!"

"It seems that Tongtong has been holding back a lot these days!" Master Ba laughed.

"I'm not just suffocated these days, I've been suffocated all these years! If I were a man, I would have to go out more and see all the great rivers and mountains! It's so boring to stay in one place all your life. "Mao Tongtong said.

The transportation in ancient times was inconvenient, and it would take a few years to travel all over the Qing Dynasty.Only by enjoying the convenience of modern transportation can we understand the difficulty of traveling for the ancients.Coupled with the restrictions on women in ancient society, it will be even more difficult.

This is the first time that Mao Tongtong has revealed his desire to travel all over the country in front of Ba Ye, which surprised Ba Ye.

"Tongtong, even if you are a man, you can't go wherever you want." Ba Ye said: "Although men are more free than women, they also have heavier responsibilities. Family, future, and wife My son. Not everyone can have the chicness of wandering around the world."

"Uh..." Mao Tongtong was speechless now.

What Ba Ye said is not unreasonable.Take Ba Ye himself as an example, being a prince is already extremely rich and honorable.But he is also restricted most of the time, and it is impossible for him to leave Beijing casually.

"Maybe one day I can go out with you for a walk and see this beautiful river and mountain." Eighth Master held Mao Tongtong's hand and said.

"Master, are you serious?" Mao Tongtong's eyes lit up.

"If fourth brother is willing to let me go in advance." Ba Ye said.

"Then I'm not looking forward to it yet." Mao Tongtong suddenly lost interest.

For such a capable assistant as Master Ba, would Fourth Master let go?Not bad exploitation!
"Tong Tong, don't get discouraged so soon!" Eighth Master couldn't laugh or cry, "Wait for the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers to practice for a few more years, and then we can let them go."

"Of course it's the best." Mao Tongtong said with a smile.This is still available.

Leisure days always pass quickly.After Mao Tongtong brewed the five jars of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and learned how to make sweet-scented osmanthus candy, half of the holiday was over.

The sunset glow in the sky was very beautiful in the evening. Mao Tongtong took Ba Ye and took the two children for a walk.The afterglow of the setting sun elongated the shadows of several people, reflected on the field ridge, and slowly merged together.

There was a faint sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Ba Ye and Mao Tongtong both looked into the distance, "Is there something wrong in Beijing?" Mao Tongtong muttered.

Ba Ye didn't speak, and squinted his eyes to see the man riding a horse towards the gate of Zhuangzi.

"Master, don't we go back and have a look?" Mao Tongtong asked.

"Don't worry, I will find you if there is something to do." Ba Ye said.

Mao Tongtong had a bad premonition in his heart, thinking that this holiday would probably come to an end early.
