    Li Yuangui didn¡¯t see the jade pendant coming back, so Jiafu couldn¡¯t ask questions, so she returned to the Duke¡¯s Mansion after leaving the palace.

    Mrs. Xin and the second bedroom had already known that she had been picked up in a palace carriage, and they all paid close attention to her. Seeing that she had returned at this moment, the girls and women from the two places came over to greet her.  The rough lady in the courtyard inquired about the news, and soon everyone in the Duke's Mansion knew that the eldest lady was about to leave the capital and go to the north.

    Although everyone is spreading rumors about this incident, Pei You'an was convicted by the emperor and was sent out of prison, but in the end, neither the Ministry of Punishment nor the Dali Temple issued any documents on this matter. The source of all the rumors is also  However, it started with a few people seeing their backs early that morning, so it was difficult to be completely sure that this was true. After all, given the close relationship between the emperor and Pei Youan, it was really hard for something like this to happen overnight.  Unbelievable.  But now the news was confirmed, and there was inevitably another commotion secretly in the Duke's Mansion. After a while, Meng from the second room came and confirmed the news to Jia Fu. She looked sympathetic, comforted her a few words, and then said  , the second master had just asked her to give her a message, saying that it was useless to be sad now that the incident had happened, and to ask her to relax and take more care of her body on the way. When she got there, after some time, the long live pardon would be just around the corner, so she stayed for a while.  , telling her when to leave, he would come and see her off.  Jia Fu thanked her and sent her out.

    Jiafu had previously learned from Li Yuangui that Pei Youan was sent to Suye City in Ganzhou.  It was such a coincidence that it happened to be the place where he finally passed away in his previous life. He didn't care about sighing, but became more and more anxious. He wished he could leave immediately tonight, and pack his bags as soon as Meng left.

    When Pei Youan left the country this time, he was not taking office as an official. It was difficult to bring the gorgeous and beautiful clothes that the two of them had ready-made. He rummaged through the cabinets and picked up some thick ordinary winter clothes. He was afraid that they would not be enough, so he immediately started cutting clothes.  , made of ordinary clothing materials, stuffed with the best warm silk cotton in the folder. All the girls and women in the courtyard who are good at sewing came and sat around. You sewed the sleeves, and I made the front placket. I flew stitches all night, and then  In just one night, several new pieces of warm clothing were made and packed into boxes one by one.

    The next morning, the luggage was almost packed.  Li Yuangui didn't say that the emperor didn't allow her to bring servants, so she could.  Sandalwood and Muxiang were of the right age and had served Jiafu for many years, so she wanted to go with her. Aunt Liu also really loved Jiafu and wanted to go there, but Jiafu persuaded her to leave and asked her to go back to Quanzhou and bring a letter to her.  Mother, asked her to live her old age in Quanzhou.

    Grandma Liu held Jiafu's hand and babbled, and told Sandalwood to serve her well. When she talked about the sad part, her eyes turned red, and everyone had tears in their eyes.

    While the whole room was feeling sad, a woman next to Mrs. Xin came over.

    Jiafu wiped away her tears and called the woman in.

    The mother-in-law came in, looked at the boxes and baggage on the ground, smiled on her face, and bowed: "Grandma, when you were not here a few days ago, a fire broke out in the original warehouse of our house. Although we were able to put it out at the time,  It was timely, but the house was damaged and it is no longer suitable for use. The wife thought that if it was renovated, it would cost another sum of money. The large yard next to the bridge has been empty for so many years, so it would be a pity to leave it alone.  Yes, madam, I will come back in the future and will not move there again, so I want to free up the old things inside, reorganize them a little, and turn them into a warehouse, so that I can save a lot of money.  . While Grandma is still at home, send me to tell you which of the old things in there are still useful, and ask someone to move them here. If they are useless, they will be put away together. "

    The south courtyard of the bridge is where Pei Youan lived when he was a boy.  Before they got married, the old lady allocated this small courtyard next to her north house for the young couple to live. Although they did not live there, there were still many books and other sundries that Pei Youan had collected since he was a child.  If we really want to move, it won't be empty within a few days.

    Jiafu was silent for a moment and said calmly: "It would be better to turn it into a warehouse. I'll go and take a look. Make sure the books are not damaged and move them all here." He took a few servants to the courtyard, but they haven't arrived yet.  At the door, I saw a pile of tables and chairs that had been moved out on the road outside. The courtyard door was open, and the courtyard was also filled with tables, chairs, and bookcases that had been cleared out of the house. A pile of books were spread out on the ground.  Going in and out, busy moving things, the woman named Ye next to Mrs.  The books that were not taken down fell to the ground with a clatter.

    "It's so heavy! Come and help hold it together¡ª¡ª"

    The woman carrying the bookshelf shouted loudly, and people on the side swarmed up, stepping on the books that fell on the ground with seven or eight feet, and finally lifted the big bookshelf to the open space.

    Jiafu walked over, squatted down, and picked up a book with black footprints on the ground.

    The book is very old, the pages are yellowed, and there are words, sentences or that are familiar to Kaif.The scene where the letter slapped him hard on the face, even though his hands and feet were stiff, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all.  We continued on for half a day, and in the evening, the carriage suddenly stopped, the horses neighing.

    Jia Fu stuck her head out and found that the horse's body was tilted and its front hooves were deeply sunk into the snow nest.  Yang Yun went down, checked, and said that the horse's hoof stepped into a hole buried deep in the snow, and the front hoof was broken and could not walk.

    The old man said that it was getting dark soon, so he had no choice but to turn back. There was a resting place nearby, so he should go there first.

    When Jiafu asked about the journey to the racecourse, the old soldier said that there was still a mile to go.

    Jiafu looked at the heavy snow in front of her and said, "It's just this way, let's walk there!"

    Yang Yun couldn't help but had no choice but to lead the injured horses and carts to the side of the road. Jiafu and the two girls brought light burdens and, under the leadership of the old pawn, stepped on them step by step.  The snow up to my calves, against the wind and snow, moved forward step by step.

    When Jiafu finally stood in front of the fence gate of the stockyard, it was late at night.

    The sky was dark and snow was flying. Along the way, she slipped and fell countless times, and her whole body was covered with ice and snow.

    An old soldier yawned and opened the door. He learned that it was Pei You'an's wife who had come. He stared at the snowman-like Jiafu with his mouth open. It took him a long time to react. He held up a lantern and hurriedly led her in.  After passing through rows of warehouses used as warehouses, he finally stopped, pointed to the end of a row of houses, and said, "Master Pei lives there."

    It was a row of dilapidated houses, pitch black, with only a dim yellow light shining through the window in the direction pointed by the old soldier.

    "Master Pei is really kind to the horses. After coming here, the sick horses here have improved a lot. Even he himself is sick, and his cough has become more and more severe in the past few days."

    The old soldier was beside him and whispered in a low voice.

    Jia Fu¡¯s whole body was trembling. She calmed down, turned around and asked Yang Yun to find a place to put the sandalwood and wood incense on his frozen face, which was already blue, and walked quickly towards the direction of the light.

    She stepped on the snow on the ground and walked away quickly, faster and faster, getting closer and closer.

    He was about to reach the door, but he slowed down and finally stopped.

    The heavy snow fell silently from the depths of the endless night sky, and everything was pitch black. Only a few dim lights were reflected in the door and window in front of me.

    The doors and windows are very old, and there are cracks everywhere between the gaps in the wood.  Jiafu held her breath, suppressed her beating heart that was about to jump out of her throat, slowly came to the dilapidated window, and looked in through the cracks in the wood.

    There is a bed, a table, a stool, and a stove in the corner of the room. Other than that, there is not much else.  The fire in the furnace was dim and weak, and it looked like it was about to go out.

    It had only been more than half a year since I last saw him, but he was extremely thin and pale. He was wearing an old robe. He was sitting at the table with his head lit by the dim soybean oil lamp at the corner of the table, seeming to be copying the stack of account books at hand.

    He wrote for a moment and suddenly coughed, with a slight look of pain on his face. He then stopped writing, stood up, and bent down to pick up the kettle, as if he wanted to pour water.

    Suddenly, as if he noticed something, he stopped, slowly straightened up, turned his head, and cast his eyes in the direction of the window where Jiafu was.

    "Who's out there?"

    He asked, his voice slightly hoarse, but extremely calm.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
