Chapter 146
Return to Fucheng
Sun Daniu drove a carriage with the female family members and Xiaobao inside. Li Zhongyou drove the ox cart with Li Mingyi, Han Lai and Dong Zang. When they arrived in the town, Li Mingyi changed into a carriage, and Li Zhongyou drove the ox cart back to Li
Home village.
Xiaobao and Li Mingmei were very excited along the way. The aunt and nephew talked and laughed along the way, and the noisy Zhao Yunlan could only cheer up.
After all, Zhao Yunlan has been on this road several times, and the novelty has long since disappeared. Now, as long as he is in a hurry, Zhao Yunlan will only feel tired.
"You should save some of your strength. If you continue to use it up like this, you won't be able to hold on to Fucheng!" Zhao Yunlan suggested to the two sisters feebly.
Ruiwen said like a young adult: "Mother, I rarely come out to see the outside world. Don't you always say, 'Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles'?"
Zhao Yunlan: “Do I often say this?”
Li Mingmei and Xiaobao nodded.
Zhao Yunlan: "Then I have changed now. While traveling thousands of miles, I must also read thousands of books."
Xiao Ruiwen sighed and silently took out the Thousand-Character Essay in his schoolbag. Zhao Yunlan looked at the dejected little man and couldn't help but smile: "I stopped reading in the car. Reading hurts my eyes. When we take a rest, you can
You can take some time to take a look.”
Ruiwen's eyes narrowed and he responded with a smile: "Okay, mother." Then he and Li Mingmei got into the novelty again.
Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to shake his head.
When he arrived in the town, Li Mingyi rented a carriage and continued on his way without stopping. When he arrived at the county town, Li Mingren was already waiting at the city gate. This time, Zhao Yunlan sent a letter to Li Mingren in advance.
"Dad, here!" Xiao Ruiwen waved his little hand towards Li Mingren.
Li Mingren caught up and said, "Madam, I have already booked an inn for you."
Zhao Yunlan nodded and said with a smile: "You go to the second brother's car. Our car is full of female relatives."
Li Mingren was about to get on the carriage when he stopped, looked at Zhao Yunlan, and suddenly stuck his head out from behind: "Brother, hehe!"
Li Mingren said calmly: "Little sister!" From the carriage behind, Li Mingyi shouted: "Brother, come up quickly, let's go to the inn, sister-in-law and the others must be hungry."
Li Mingren quickly got on Li Mingyi's carriage.
"Come on, the inn is not far away." Li Mingren urged, and Li Mingyi was not annoyed. Now that he was married, he could understand Li Mingren's feelings.
Everyone arrived at the inn and settled down. Li Mingren ran around arranging hot water and meals. Xiao Ruiwen was still energetic, dragging Li Mingmei upstairs and downstairs.
"Madam, I have arranged the meals downstairs. Let's go down." Li Mingren came up to support Zhao Yunlan.
Zhao Yunlan smiled angrily: "It's not like I can't walk. Can we walk normally? I feel so weak. Remember that I could knock you down with one punch in the past."
Li Mingren was a little embarrassed: "Oh, let's not talk about the past again. Look at my arms. There is no problem in protecting you and the child."
Zhao Yunlan looked at Li Mingren. After such a comparison, Li Mingren's figure is indeed much more pleasing to the eye.
The couple went downstairs, where Li Mingyi, Li Mingmei and Xiao Ruiwen had already sat down.
"Sister-in-law, brother, I'm waiting for you two. Come and eat quickly, I'm so hungry." Li Mingmei urged the two of them.
Zhao Yunlan hurried over and sat down. Looking at the dishes on this table, he was really hungry. Li Mingren was becoming more considerate now. Half of the dishes on this table were Zhao Yunlan's favorites.
After the family finished eating, Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingren took Xiao Ruiwen for a walk near the inn. Li Mingyi and Li Mingmei went back to the room to wash up and rest. Without Wu Yi around, Li Mingyi was not interested in anything outside, and Li Mingmei was
After working hard with Xiao Ruiwen for a day, I felt tired after eating.
Seeing that Xiao Ruiwen was extremely sleepy, Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingren to carry his son and his family back to the inn to rest.
When the three of them returned to the inn, Ruiwen had already fallen asleep on Li Mingren's back. Li Mingren wanted to wake Ruiwen up and wash up, but Zhao Yunlan stopped him: "Don't call him, this guy will wake up as soon as he falls asleep."
He's sleeping soundly. Just fetch some water to wipe him down later. Hey, I'm going to wash up too. You take good care of your son!"
Li Mingren had no choice but to wash Xiaobao's body. Xiaobao was indeed sleeping soundly. No matter how Li Mingren fiddled with him, Xiaobao still slept soundly.
The next day, Xiao Ruiwen woke up in the arms of Li Mingren and Zhao Yunlan, with a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden.
Li Mingren and Zhao Yunlan were also awakened by Xiaobao's movements, "Son, your father and your mother are still sleeping." Li Mingren called to Xiaobao helplessly.
Zhao Yunlan sat up, and Xiao Ruiwen saw this and said, "We have to hurry up and hurry up. Dad, you can sleep by yourself!"
Li Mingren had no choice but to get up and said, "I'll help you get dressed first. Just be obedient."
Ruiwen said like a young adult: "Dad, I can dress myself. You can quickly get dressed and go downstairs to order food!"
Li Mingren said angrily: "Hey, this dad is responsible..."
Zhao Yunlan looked at the father and son with big eyes and small eyes, and felt a little cute.
After another hurried gathering, Zhao Yunlan and Li Mingren parted again, but when they parted, Li Mingren told Ruiwen good news, which made Ruiwen depressed for a while.
It's just that the child's sadness went away as quickly as it came. When he met several officers and soldiers on horseback on the road, Xiao Ruiwen had already forgotten that he was about to enter the school.
When leaving, Li Mingren specifically turned to Ruiwen and Zhao Yunlan and told Ruiwen and Zhao Yunlan: "Madam, Ruiwen's school is in place. I should be able to complete the enrollment process when you come back."
Zhao Yunlan was thinking about buying a house in the county at the moment, but she thought that this house would not last long. She originally planned to buy a house directly in Fucheng. It would be more convenient for the whole family to take over.
Zhao Yunlan shook his head and discussed the matter of buying a house with Li Mingren later!
Xiao Ruiwen was not so energetic on the road today. As he was approaching Fucheng, Xiao Ruiwen had already fallen asleep in Zhao Yunlan's arms.
"Ruiwen, Ruiwen, don't you want to see the gate of Fucheng? Wake up." Zhao Yunlan called to Ruiwen.
Ruiwen mumbled a few drowsily, then fell asleep again.
Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to give up. When she arrived at Wu's house, Aunt Cui took Li Ruiwen from Zhao Yunlan's arms and carried her to the room that Zhu Yue had arranged early in the morning.
Li Mingyi took Han Lai and Dong Zang to meet Wu Yanwei.
Zhu Yue looked at Zhao Yunlan: "Yunlan, Mingmei, let's go have a meal first. I'll have someone make a new portion of Xiaobao's meal."
Zhao Yunlan: "Hey, sister, I wish you don't have to go to such trouble. Just leave some to warm him up."
Zhu Yue smiled: "No trouble, you can eat in peace! It's the first time Mingmei comes to our house, so don't be polite. You and Yunlan live in the same courtyard."
Li Mingmei: "Well, thank you sister Zhuyue."
