“Sister Qingqing, can I go to the Capital city to look for you guys in the future?” He looked at Jian Qingqing expectantly.
Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “Little Rong, you are a very smart child. I hope to see you in the Capital city’s examination hall one day.”
Jian Rong said with a serious expression, “I will! I will definitely take the examination and obtain a title!”
“Yes, I believe you can do it!”
Jian Qingqing had always felt that other than their family, Jian Rong should be the second person in the Jian family village who had the chance to walk out of this mountain. Although Jian Rong could not be compared to Xiao Ye, he did his homework much better than Xiao Hu. In the past, he only thought about earning money, now that he had settled down to study, his future was bound to be limitless.
On the day they left, nearly half of the people in Shifeng County stood on both sides of the street to send them off. There were even people who stuffed eggs and their own vegetables into the carriages.
“Your Highness, you have to come back often! This will always be your hometown!”
“Your Highness, thank you very much for your high-yield grain! If it weren’t for you, we would still be hungry!”
“Lord Ming! You are the best official we have ever met! I wish you a safe journey! Have a smooth official journey!”
Looking at this familiar county and such a group of cute people, Jian Qingqing felt very reluctant to leave just thinking about it.
Mother Jian patted her head. “Don’t look.”
Jian Qingqing wiped her tears and lay in her mother’s arms. In her previous life, she had no relatives, so she had never felt sad about parting. But now, she had made friends in Shifeng County and had many family members who loved her, she had a lot of attachment to this hometown.
Only when they were two or three miles away from the county did they go back. The group of people sat in the carriage emotionlessly.
When it was noon, Wei Zheng asked, “Princess, should we stop to rest?”
Jian Qingqing looked outside at the wilderness and asked, “If we stop now, can we reach the courier station tonight?”
“If we walk faster, we can.
“Then let’s stop.”
After sitting in the carriage for the whole morning, her butt hurt. She did not expect it to be so painful to go on a long journey. It had not even been a day and she was already so uncomfortable. She could not imagine what it would be like to walk for 20 days. It felt like it could kill her, at this moment, she missed the modern high-speed train very much.
After stopping, she first found a secluded place to go to the toilet. Wei Zheng had originally wanted to build a simple toilet for her, but she rejected him. It was too troublesome. He also had to cut wood. Even if she could build it, she had already done it, so she casually went to a wild toilet.
When she went back, they had already started a fire to cook.
She went to get a bag of beef jerky and then went to play with Xiao Hu and the others.
Xiao Lang was practicing his boxing against a big tree, Ming Zhiyan was guiding him.
Jian Qingqing did not know how a five-year-old kid could still practice boxing after sitting in a car for the whole morning.
Xiao Hu was climbing the tree, and Xiao Ye was watching him from below.
Wei Wusheng was sitting on the ground to rest, while Mother Jian and the others were watching the meal.
Jian Qingqing asked loudly, “Do you want to eat?”
Xiao Hu immediately slid down with a rustle. “I want to eat!”
Xiao Lang was just about to look over when Ming Zhiyan said seriously, “Don’t be distracted.”
Xiao Lang continued to turn back and fight.
Wei Wusheng opened his eyes and asked, “What is it?”
“Beef jerky, do you want to eat it?”
“Yes!”
Jian Qingqing gave the beef jerky to the few of them and then gave it to Ming
Zhiyan. “Do you want to eat some?”
Ming Zhiyan took it and stuffed it into his mouth. “Not bad.”
The beef jerky was shredded into strips and roasted very fragrant. The salty, fragrant, and spicy flavors exploded in his taste buds, making him addicted to it..
