MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 254 Return together

Chapter 254 Return together

Qin Yao wanted to find Ding Shi to accompany her, and Ding Shi was also looking for her.

 As soon as the two parties met, they immediately reached an agreement to go together without further ado.

"How many guards does Master Ding bring?" Qin Yao asked.

Ding Shi replied: "There are two guards, plus the coachman and me, there are four people in total, one carriage and two horses."

Qin Yao also talked about her own situation, "We are two families. Do you know Liu Li? He is also studying at Kaiyang County Academy."

As soon as Qin Yao mentioned Liu Li, Ding Shi laughed and said, "I know him. He passed the main examination and was ranked second and thirteenth. Am I remembering correctly?"

 Qin Yao nodded, remembering correctly.

Both sides arrived at the city gate almost at the same time. The Ding family guards were all familiar faces. They smiled and nodded to greet Qin Yao.

From the time we left the city until we got onto the official road, we could see people from nearby farms going to the early market. The fields on both sides of the official road were lush and green. It was foreseeable that there would be a bumper harvest this autumn.

Liu Ji saw what Qin Yao said and nodded, intending to take a look before talking.

After the meal was ready, Qin Yao and her four children also packed up their luggage. Ma also asked the innkeeper to help lead them to the back door of the inn.

After making an appointment with Ding Shi to gather under the city gate tomorrow, Qin Yao returned to the inn and called Liu Li and Liu Ji together to announce the news.

 The small table in the carriage was put away, and quilts and mats were spread out. It was very spacious for the four children to roll up.

How is this different from what Qin Yao said before?

The four Dalang brothers and sisters were still a little reluctant to leave. They looked back at the inn for a long time, then turned their heads and got on the carriage one by one.

Although Ding Shi only had a name in the county academy and rarely visited the academy, we were all from the same academy, so we had naturally met him a few times, but we were not that familiar with him.

It’s a pity that none of the women next to him went in to lie down. What qualifications did he have as a poor man?

Qin Yao said: "Then it's settled, we will meet at the city gate tomorrow at midnight."

 The group of people continued to move forward, but because of the carriage, the speed was not very fast.

The second reason is that because he has a reputation for being knowledgeable early on, and because of the influence of the Ding family in Kaiyang County, many people pay attention to him.

Although Ding Shi is younger than them, he is very famous in the academy.

After reporting to the young master, the guard followed Ding Shi's instructions and came to the end and told Qin Yao about the situation ahead.

The rear door can be opened, and both doors are opened together. Sitting in the car, you can enjoy the draft, which is very cool.

 No matter what time it is, people with money and power can always obtain information faster than ordinary people and act in advance to avoid disasters.

It was Qin Yao who dared to give such an order. Liu Ji was worried that the young master of the Ding family would be unhappy if she said this.

“There is no danger. Let’s continue on our own path, but you should go ahead and be more careful. If you encounter homeless people begging for food on the road, don’t stop. Let’s go on our own path and stay out of other people’s business.”

The wheels rumbled forward. It was still early and there were not many people under the city gate. The sound of carriages moving echoed in the city gate.

As soon as it gets light, Liu Ji is the first to get up with a yawn and go to the kitchen to make breakfast.

This time the two of them are on the list together as people from Kaiyang County. Liu Li naturally wants to take this opportunity to make acquaintances so that they can take care of each other in the future.

“Aniang, I bought lanterns for Sister Jinhua and Da Mao. Do you think they will like them?”

Siniang climbed out of the car door and lay on her father's broad back coquettishly. She turned to ask Qin Yao, who was sitting beside the car's shaft.

However, the Ding family has its own resources. Ding Shi has rarely come to the academy in the past two years. He will only show up occasionally when the dean has important instructions.

I also wanted to bring some bacon or something, but unfortunately I searched all over the city and couldn't find it, so I had to keep everything simple and travel lightly.

Dazhuang's side was almost ready. After Liu Li got in the car, the two families set off towards the city gate.

The four brothers and sisters of Dalang got out of the car window again and looked back at the tall city walls of Fucheng. They felt that the past half month was like a dream, so beautiful and happy that it was unreal. But when I think of the small courtyard on the northern **** of Liujiacun, the city in front of me is nothing. That is their root, their home.

 After leaving the city gate, his eyes suddenly brightened.

There is a team of about ten official officers guarding the place, and they are only allowed to go out but not enter. If anyone wants to enter, they must show the way.

 To really leave the city, you have to go to the hillside two miles away.

The Ding family carriage was at the front. A guard drove a horse to the front to see the situation, and immediately turned back to report:

“Master, there are one or two hundred people gathered at the checkpoint ahead who want to enter the city. Almost all of them came from neighboring provinces to seek refuge. Judging from their outfits, they should all be people with some influence in the local area.”

There is only one main road over there to get to Fucheng. If there is an emergency, officers and soldiers will set up a road here.

"Let's go." Ding Shi squatted on the carriage shaft, made sure that everyone was here, nodded to Qin Yao, got into the carriage and took a seat.

Qin Yao reminded him not to draw conclusions too early, and he had only driven five hundred meters, not even a mile.

 Liu Li had no objection, on the contrary, he was looking forward to it.

We will set off tomorrow. After dinner at night, Qin Yao's family of six went to bed early.

“Yes, this is a gift carefully selected by Si Niang.” Qin Yao responded with a smile.

Before reaching the checkpoint, Qin Yao and his party heard many voices gathering in one place. They could not hear clearly what was said, but they could feel that there were many people there.

No matter how light it is, the carriage is still full because we stayed for many days and bought all kinds of miscellaneous specialties and gifts.

On the morning of late May, as soon as the sun appeared, the heat started to rise, and my daughter’s body was very hot. It was indeed warm in winter, but let’s forget about this summer.

The little girl immediately laughed, her little body trembling, Liu Ji shrugged, "Ho, Si Niang, please get into the carriage."

Of course, people from rich families may not be willing to interact with him, but Liu Li felt that it would be nice to get to know each other along the way.

Liu Ji's side was almost ready. Liu Li followed suit and asked Da Zhuang to ask the cook to help him make a lot of scones. He also bought two big bones and took them with him to make soup on the way.

Si Niang snorted and poked her father’s back with her little finger as if she was angry, before climbing back into the car.

 Liu Ji looked back, feeling nothing but envy.

 First, because he has Mr. Ding as his adopted father.

After walking for another half-quarter of an hour, we finally saw the hillside of Sheka. There was no barrier when we came here, but now there is a fence more than two meters high.

Qin Yao responded with a smile, "Everyone is here."

 Liu Ji is not qualified to express opinions.

 Such a harmonious combination of people and scenery made Liu Ji very confused, "Didn't you say it was a mess outside?"

 After finishing a simple breakfast, loading up luggage, checking out of the store, it was finally time to head home.

The guard got the message and went to pass it on to Ding Shi.

Ding Shi felt that the refugee begging depended on the situation and was not an important matter, but he still wrote down Qin Yao's instructions and asked the driver to do as Qin Yao said.
