It was the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month when Sun Daxing arrived in Li County with his wife, children, and siblings.

The two carriages passed through the city gate and onto the street.

Sun Qiaoqiao lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out at the street.

“The view of Kyoto Street is still the best.”

Although there are small buildings and shops here, most of the pedestrians on both sides of the street are wearing simple clothes or even patched clothes.

Her eyes followed the figures to West First Street and West Second Street.

"I don't know which street the eldest young master...the eldest young lady lives on."

Ma, who was sitting opposite her, reminded her gently, "I remember the letter that my father-in-law was holding mentioned... Lushui Village outside Li County? The eldest young lady should not live in the city."

Sun Daxing nodded, "It is indeed Green Water Village."

Sun Dasheng behind him said: "Why not just ask a passerby?"

A pedestrian happened to pass by, and Sun Dasheng stopped the person.

"Brother, please tell me, do you know how to get to Green Water Village?"

The elder brother looked at the two cars in front and behind Sun Dasheng and asked:

"You've come from another place, right? Go straight along the main road after you exit the north city gate, don't turn. You have a carriage, so you can get there in an hour or so on normal days. But the road is not easy to travel on right now, so it should take more than an hour.

Even if you are a fast walker, it would take you an hour and a half to walk there on weekdays.”

"Lvshui Village is almost the northernmost village in Li County, right at the foot of Daqing Mountain."

The group listened to the elder brother and drove the carriage out of the north gate.

Sun Qiaoqiao was not happy, "They all live on the mountainside. It takes an hour to get from Kyoto Street to our farm. It only takes half an hour, which is already quite far."

Sun Daxing: "We'll go wherever the master lives. How can you be picky?"

"I'm telling you, when we get to Green Water Village, you'll have to stop being so scornful of the poor and loving the rich. We are just servants of the Gu family. No matter who the master is, you have to respect him."

Sun Qiaoqiao was not convinced and whispered: "She dared to run away from home without telling the young master, and we still have to respect such a young master's wife..."

Ma looked at her sister-in-law and sighed in her heart. She was the only sister-in-law in the family who was confused. The other married sister-in-law was smarter and more sensible than her.

Sun Youfu, who worked as a doorman at the Gu family, received the letter from Li County and hurriedly asked the eldest son Sun Youxing and his family to rush to Li County.

Let the youngest son come along and take care of him along the way. It won’t be a big deal if we return to Kyoto Farm after the New Year.

Sun Youfu resigned from his job as Gu's doorman and returned to the village.

The eldest daughter married an honest young steward in the farm. He was not afraid of spending the New Year alone. As long as he invited his eldest daughter to join him, the family would be lively and he already had two grandchildren.

But no one expected that Sun Qiaoqiao would be waiting on the road far away from the Kyoto city gate, and would insist on following them to Li County.

He also said that he had left a letter for his family.

Sun Daxing was helpless and took her with him.

Along the way, the two brothers gave her earnest advice and took turns to attack her unrealistic daydreams.

But the effect was minimal, just like drinking the talisman water from the young master.

They all wondered, could this be the little sister that their parents had brought back from somewhere to raise?

This doesn't seem like the character of the Sun family at all.

Very stubborn.

Sun Dasheng bit into the meat bun he just bought from the street and criticized his little sister as usual, "Don't even mention running away from home. Even if she burned down the entire Gu residence, she is still your master."

" ..."

Sun Qiaoqiao was furious, "Second brother is the most annoying!"

"Aunt, Second Uncle doesn't hate you at all. He even gives you meat buns to eat."

Sun Daxing's seven-year-old son sat next to Ma and spoke for his second uncle.

"You are such a loser. I bribed you with just a bun." Sun Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes at her nephew.

Ma was quite unhappy when she saw this, but because she was her own sister-in-law, she didn't say anything. She didn't like to cause trouble.

She just let her son eat the buns and lean on her to rest for a while.

The adults were fine with the journey, but the children were really unable to take it anymore.

Fortunately, we finally arrived at our destination.

The child, who had never traveled far, was very excited when he first set out.

We started to feel dizzy before we had walked halfway. Some parts of the road were difficult to walk on, and we swayed so much that the child vomited.

It’s good enough that I could make it to Li County without getting sick.

"You are my nephew, and I will buy you delicious food in the future. You are not like some people who are just stones in the toilet."

Smelly and hard!

I've been brainwashed all the way, but I can't get over it.

We have already arrived at Li County. If we still act like this in front of our master, we can only wish for the best of luck.

He hopes to spend this New Year in peace. He will return to Kyoto after the New Year, and when the time comes he will have to take this girl back with him to avoid embarrassing her by keeping her here.

No one wanted to talk anymore.

The road was fine. Although the villages were far apart, they were not deserted. There were obvious wheel marks on the road.

As for the forks in the road, they remembered not to turn into them and always stayed on the main road.

Just like that, when the group arrived at Lushui Village, it was almost time for people to start cooking.

Two carriages stopped at the entrance of the village. Sun Daxing jumped off the carriage and walked towards the village.

On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, sweep the house.

We just sent off the Kitchen God yesterday, and today we have to start “sweeping the dust” without worrying about offending the gods.

From time to time, villagers came out to walk around, and those who lived close to the village entrance naturally discovered the two cars.

After Sun Daxing found out where Li Changle lived, he returned to the carriage and headed towards the fork in the road.

Sun Qiaoqiao looked at the Green Water Village, which was surrounded by mountains except for the fields in front of the village. She opened her mouth but didn't dare to complain.

She knew that once she said this, her two brothers would certainly scold her again.

I endured it with frustration.

I kind of regretted coming to Li County on impulse.

It’s not like the young master will never return to Kyoto in his entire life.

Not only were my bones broken by the bumps along the way, but I also had to be scolded by my brother from time to time.

Now it seems that I still have to stay in this small, poor village with poor mountains and bad waters and serve others.

Why did she come here...

-

Thanks to the popularization of the twelfth lunar month custom by osmanthus, we offered sacrifices to the Kitchen God yesterday, and today, like everyone else, we started the general cleaning work.

Li Shixi and Yu'er also squatted under the straw shed to change the hay in the rabbit's cage.

The rabbit was fed by the children until it became plump. When they remembered it, they would play with it, and when they didn’t, they would just put it in the corner of the woodshed.

This rabbit is free-range, but its food is not bad.

The three acres of vegetable fields in Leshan Zhuangzi were planted with carrots and pumpkins. When I came back, I brought some back specifically for the rabbit, and also collected a basket of radish leaves.

Li Changle saw the brother and sister playing again, so she moved to another place and planned to tidy up the house.
