Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 310 Preparing for a trip
As soon as they saw Dabai's family running over, they knew it was Madam who was coming, and rushed to the side of the road, followed by back to the residence under the cliff to the north.Mu Ai waved them to get busy, first went to the cliff to get in touch with the Jindiao family, and peeled a bunch of mangosteen to feed them.The Jindiao family is very knowledgeable. They don't like to eat the fruits grown in the valley, but only like the ones in her space, and they are all rare southern fruits. After peeling, the mangosteen is like a garlic petal. It's easy to swallow, so it became their favorite, and every time she came to the valley for a short stay, she would feed them some.

After getting off the cliff, Mu Ai turned to Dongshan to visit the Dahei clan who moved here last year. There are only seven of them in total. However, they rely on them to transport goods down the mountain and people up the mountain on weekdays.The fruits on Dongshan Mountain are enough to eat, and they are a little tired of eating, but they love honey very much. As long as you give them a small bowl every month, they will work as porters for a month I don't feel tired either.This time the wood ai was going on a trip, and I was afraid that I would not be able to see them for two or three years, so I gave each one a big bowl to let them eat to their heart's content. Xiao Hei is no longer a fluffy little black ball, but a She is as strong as her mother, but she still can't change her love of acting like a baby, so she pesters Mu Ai and gives her an extra share of honey before giving up.

After walking around like this, the sky became dark, Mu Ai sat down with everyone and had a meal, and said that he would take the children to travel around the world, but he would not be able to return for a short time, and then explained in detail.At night, when everyone was asleep, she took the flashlight she found in the space, went to the hot pool and the cold pool, picked out some of the magical medicinal materials inside, and carefully stored them in a jade box.Although she didn't think she would encounter many life-threatening things along the way to the south, it's always good to be prepared.What's more, there is that man who doesn't know where he is, maybe he can use it somewhere.

After re-covering the bushes at the entrance of the two caves and pouring a basin of spring water, the bushes immediately grew wildly and completely covered the entrance of the cave before she went back to sleep peacefully.

On the second day, after having dinner early in the morning, he took over the villa and the two larger wooden houses, and then he took Dabai's family, bid farewell to Dongzhi and others, and went down the mountain.

In a small village with an area of ​​[-] mu in the outskirts of Huadu, a tall wooden pole stands in the middle of the main house. The top of the wooden pole is very conspicuously wrapped with a thick red cloth. The farmers are all honest people. Although I was curious, the host treated them very kindly, and the pole did not hinder them from eating and drinking. After a long time, I got used to it. Instead, I used the pole as a sign. When I met someone who didn't know where they lived, I just said something. , out of Huadu Donghua Gate, walk fifty miles along the official road, and then there is a place with a mahogany pole on the right, I guarantee that no one will find it.

One morning, the sleepy boy was sweeping the yard, when he heard a loud cry above his head, a big golden eagle fell down from the roof of the main house, and he was so startled that he immediately dropped his broom and ran to the front yard I went to report, and immediately a 20-year-old steward ran into the East Chamber, poured half a basin of clear water into a wooden bucket, and then put it on a tray along with a basin of fresh beef, and asked the boy to hold it underneath. He climbed to the middle of the ladder, took it and lifted it up to the roof.

The golden eagle stared at him with its brown eyes for a long time, then sniffed the clear water in the olfactory basin, then opened its mouth and started to eat, sweeping away the water and beef in less than a moment.Then lazily began to straighten the feathers on his body that were a little messy due to the wind.

The steward knew that the carving uncle was full and in a good mood, so he quickly climbed up to the roof and carefully unfastened the bamboo tube from his feet.

After getting off the roof, Pegasus went into the city to report.A little boy with red lips and white teeth was standing at the gate of An Guohou's mansion. He wore a scarlet short brocade shirt, a silver belt, and black and white gangster boots. He was holding a horsewhip in his hand.Occasionally, the servants who come and go will bow and salute before continuing on their way. Obviously, the status of this child must be unusual in the Hou's mansion.

Cheng'er waited for the boy to fix the saddle, his expression slightly impatient. Today he invited a group of classmates from the school to go to the western suburbs for fun, but it was not until he was about to go out that he found that the saddle belt was loose. After reprimanding the boy, I had to wait patiently.

Xiao Fang stood behind him and said softly, "Master, the Zhao family came to the door yesterday, and the old lady called the madam to reprimand you. If you meet the two young masters of the Zhao family today, you should give way. Little one I remember that I seemed to have learned a sentence from Mrs. Xian back then, take a step back and broaden the sky."

Cheng'er frowned, "Of course I remember my aunt's words, but they insulted my mother first, how can I bear this tone as a son of man. Don't worry, I will handle it well if I encounter it again."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a horse running from a distance. Immediately, the man was the steward of the small village outside the city. It was the place that their father and son bought to connect with Kao City. The steward was also from Kao City. The confidant who brought.Come here in such a hurry today, could it be that another letter has arrived?
Sure enough, the steward got off his horse and saw that there were not many people around, so he stepped forward and held the bamboo tube to Cheng'er with both hands, and said, "Master, Xiao Jin is here."

"Ah, Xiaojin? I haven't seen it for a long time. You go back and take good care of it. I'll rush over in the afternoon." Cheng'er looked surprised. He and Simba grew up together, and their personalities and hobbies are very similar. This golden eagle is also loved as much as Simba.

The steward responded, and rode away again.

Cheng'er quickly opened the bamboo tube and poured out two letters. When he saw Wei Tao's name written on one of them, he smiled and said, "Xiao Fang, you go and give the letter to brother Tao yourself. Then I took his reply letter." return."

Xiao Fang accepted the letter, saluted and left.

Cheng'er ordered the boy again, "Xiao Dong, go to the west gate and talk to my classmates, just say that there is something at home, I can't go today, I will be the host and invite them to Xiankelou for dinner some other day." After that, he pinched himself in his small study room, and ran out excitedly after a while, asking about his father's whereabouts...

Today, Wei Tao was not invited by his schoolmates to go to Chen Feng's family's flower appreciation banquet with them. To be honest, he didn't like such an occasion very much, because few of the people who came to the banquet were really talented. , It's nothing more than arty writing a few nonsense poems to suit the occasion, most of the time it's flattery around a few powerful families.Unfortunately, he was one of those few people, so at this time he was surrounded by seven or eight people, listening to how they praised his poem just now, thinking that Dayu would definitely laugh at himself if he was here, and others would not Yes, he is very clear that Dayu's talent, learning and literary talents are more than twice as high as his. It is a pity that he is determined to take over the family business, and poetry is just his hobby and pastime.

The summer in Huadu came earlier than that in Kao City. It was only the end of April, and the heat was already there. There were many people around, and the few girls who were invited by Chen Feng to add to the fun had put on too much powder, and the air was extremely cloudy. , For a moment he frowned a little sullenly.

Just when he was getting impatient, a maid in green clothes suddenly led a boy in green clothes over, and after careful identification, he recognized Xiao Fang, and he hurriedly excused his family to come and squeeze out the crowd.

Xiao Fang stepped forward and said with a smile, "Master Wei, this was delivered by Xiaojin this morning. Our young master asked Xiaojin to hand it over to you. He said that you wrote a reply and let Xiaojin take it back. Xiaojin must return tonight. go."

"Oh?" Wei Tao guessed in his heart what was going on with Dayu, and why he wrote the letter before it was time for regular communication. He found a quiet pavilion, took out the letter to read it carefully, and immediately stood up with joy. , didn’t even have time to say hello to the master, so he took Xiao Fang all the way back to the mansion...

When the night was dark, Xiaojin ate another meal of fresh beef, and flew back into the sky with two replies...

Of course Dayu and Simba were all happy when they received the letter.

In the following month, the entire Muxian Mansion fell into frenzied travel preparations. Guo Huai led people to kill a hundred chickens, two pigs, and ten sheep, and cleaned everything up. After sending it to Madam, after seeing Madam waving it away, she immediately went to prepare other things. Aunt Guo even made a few boards of tofu and sent it to her.Everyone was busy waiting for the lady to decide who to take on the outing.

Half a month later, Mu Ai went to Guo Huai and Kong Xi to discuss it carefully for half an hour, and decided on the list. The three children's servants and maids are all good at martial arts, especially the three chasing the moon from all over the world, even the old swordsman Xu bluntly , with their talent and hard work, in a few years they will definitely be top rookies in the world.It is not a problem for Feng Harvest Yushun and Caiyun to protect themselves.Moreover, they are already seventeen or eighteen years old from all corners of the country. They follow Dayu all the year round in various shops.

Among the remaining maids, Xiao An, as the big maid in the inner courtyard, must be brought along. The four of Xiyuan's culinary skills and female celebrities are all excellent. Can take good care of.

Finally came the guards. As the captain of the guards, Kong Xi insisted on following the guards. In addition, he chose Chen Yun, Yan Li, and Lu Fang, three guards whose families had no parents in the church, whose children had already left their hands, and who were also skilled in martial arts. .

As soon as the list was announced, several families were happy and some were envious. However, those who were not selected were not only those who entered the mansion for too short a time, but those who were old and already married. , So, just a few words of envy.

In mid-May, when the weather was getting hotter, three carriages were finally built in the first and second middle schools. They were all made of extremely strong and durable maple wood. The first carriage was half as wide and twice as long as an ordinary carriage. , such as various storage compartments, foldable coffee tables and other small items abound, the space is utilized to the extreme, and it is extremely convenient to use, enough for the four of them to play chess, read, eat, Even take a nap.

The other two carriages are the same size as ordinary carriages, and the designs inside are also similar. One is enough for several maids to sit in and do needlework.In the other one, put some small items for daily use, such as a few changes of clothes, etc. After all, it is impossible to go to the wife for everything during the journey.Of course, Kong Xi and Wuhu could go in and rest for a while when they were tired from riding horses.

On May [-]th, a day that is suitable for travel in the Baihua calendar, a group of three carriages and seven or eight horses embarked on a journey around the world under the reluctant eyes of everyone in the house...
