An arrogant concubine fell from the harem

Chapter 255 "Escape" Disturbance (5)

The young man nodded and bowed, and said with a smile: "The villain's carriage is for earning money to eat and support the family. As long as the guest officials are willing to pay, the villain will go there."

I said, "We're going out eight miles to the east of the capital. Isn't there a river? That's where we want to go."

The young man said: "Two guest officers, please get in the car, and the villain will send you two."

Chunmei and I got into the carriage.

Chunmei kept silent, her lips were tightly pursed, she was very nervous, her face was pale, and she kept trembling—in fact, I was not much better, as if there was a panic-stricken deer in my chest. They kept scurrying around, desperately hitting my heart, which made me tremble slightly, and my palms were covered in cold sweat.

I seemed to be comforting Chunmei, as well as myself, and murmured: "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! After leaving the capital and boarding the boat, we will be safe. Let's take the boat and go to the water village in the south of the Yangtze River. Mei, do you know the water town in the south of the Yangtze River? It is a picturesque and beautiful paradise on earth."

I said again: "There are ancient streets, winding corridors, and criss-crossing water alleys, stone roads, stone bridges, and small bridges with flowing water. Not far away, there are rural cottages, Jiangnan silk and bamboo, like poetry. Painting. When we got there, we found a water pavilion built by the river, lived there, opened the window, we could see Pingtan on the water, lotus lanterns, boats swaying past one by one, at night through the wooden boards, listening to the music below The river murmurs and falls asleep."

Chunmei looked at me, attracted by my words: "Mom—"

I interrupted her: "Call me sister. From now on, I will be your sister and you will be my sister."

Chunmei said, "Sister, is it really so beautiful there?"

I said: "Yes. It is really beautiful there, even more beautiful than what I said." I had infinite longing, yearning: "The men in the Jiangnan water town are very handsome, with elegant long gowns, elegant and pleasant, gentle and elegant, holding a handle Walking in the rain with oil-paper umbrellas is like coming out of a painting. Chunmei, when the time comes, we will each find a good husband, get married, start a business, have children, live freely and happily for the rest of our lives.”

Chunmei blushed and asked shyly, "Sister, can we really do this?"

I held her hand and said firmly, "Yes."

Chunmei smiled, and there was also infinite yearning in her expression.
