Chapter 421 – Arrival in the Capital

Then Wei Ruo said to Xiu Mei, “You run a trip to the Zhao family on my behalf, notify the Zhao brothers, and tell them that they need not worry, and that the matter of the marriage will be put on hold for the time being. Help me send two more letters to Four Treasures, and then have the people there send them to the provincial capital to hand over to Nurse and Uncle Xu.”

Wei Ruo to Xu Wo right identity command Zhao family brothers to the Wei family Miss, Zhao family brothers although do not know the reason, but because of Wei Ruo’s life-saving grace, has been doing their best to do this thing.

Now that things have collapsed, Wei Ruo still want to notify the two people, lest the two people have been worried, and Wei Ruo has some other things to explain to the two people.

In addition, since Xiao Yong will still remain in the anti-Japanese army for the time being, she will not bring Nurse and the others with her this time when she goes north, and she has left letters explaining the things they have to do in the next period of time, and arranging for matters related to the fields and stores in Taizhou and Lin’an Prefectures.

Although the bad climate in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the past two years had led to a reduction in grain production, Wei Ruo believed that as long as the climate became better, the grain production in this area would definitely be very substantial.

So she wants to buy property Jiangzhe area is the first choice, no matter where she went to this side of the property is sure to stay.

“Okay, I’m on my way.”

Xiu Mei acted sharply, changed his costume and ran back and forth to deliver the letter and bring Wei Ruo’s meaning.

After that, he went back to Listening Pine Court to pack up his things with Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo has quite a lot of things, but everything that is valuable is taken away.

The carriage in the mansion was limited, Wei Ruo did not intend to use it, she already had a carriage of her own, and it had just been reinforced two days ago.

Wei Ruo planned to purchase another carriage, specifically for transporting her luggage.

It wasn’t really about how much luggage to load in the carriage, any more luggage Wei Ruo could store in her space.

However, she couldn’t infinitely take things out of her space while traveling, that would arouse suspicion, so having an extra carriage could be more convenient.

In addition to bringing enough stuff, the preparations for protection should also be done together.

This is a long way to the capital, coupled with the fact that these two years have been eventful, it is hard to guarantee that the road will not encounter some dangerous things.

Even if you can’t use it this time, you may need it later, so it never hurts to be prepared.

So Wei Ruo took Xiu Mei to run several times on the street, and found a few carpenters and blacksmiths, ding dong busy for a few days.

Before leaving the Taizhou Mansion, Wei Qingwan had one more thing that had to be done – the acquisition of Dr. Xu’s scar removal ointment.

Not only has the three hundred taels Wei Mingyong initially gave and the two hundred taels Yun gave to buy the ointment been used up, but the two boxes of ointment that she asked Wei Mingyong for two hundred taels after she failed in her plea to see Dr. Xu are also left.

In total, seven boxes of ointment have been used up to this point and only the last half of the box is left.

And she’d gotten rid of most of the scars on her back, leaving only a third of the original marks.

This was a long journey to the capital, and it would be difficult to buy more ointment, so she had to buy enough ointment before she left for the capital.

Good in this time Yun sold the property store, in exchange for a sum of silver, in Wei Qingwan’s pleading, Yun took three hundred silver out, to Wei Qingwan to buy ointment.

Wei Qingwan immediately had Sister Li make another run to Tongde Hall.

This time, however, Sister Li returned empty-handed, bringing back bad news: the store was sold out of scar removal ointment.

Wei Qingwan inquired about the cause, wanting to know when she could have it again.

As a result, Sister Li relayed Tong De Tang’s response that the ointment was hosted by Dr. Xu to be sold in the store, and wasn’t sure when it would be available again; it might be available in a few days, and it might not be available again.

Wei Qingwan instantly went white, she had thought that the matter of the scars had been resolved, and that as long as she got the money, she would be back to her old self.

I didn’t expect this ointment to be sold out! And that Xu Wo right is a godly dragon again!

Aside from the charity clinic a while back, he’s hardly ever shown his face outside.

Where would she find him now?

On the fifteenth day of the winter moon, the Wei family set out on a journey, with Wei Yi-chen, Wei Ming-yong, and the other men on horseback, and Yun, Wei Ruo, and the rest of the women in carriages.

Yun and Wei Qingwan had a carriage, Wei Ruo had a carriage of her own, and the four carriages that followed behind to pull the luggage, three were purchased by the government, and one was purchased by Wei Ruo herself.

In addition to that there were also maids and guards from the house accompanying them.

The maid only brought a few close, the guards do not dare to save, this way over the past is not guaranteed not to encounter any danger, or more people to rest assured.

It was a slower journey because of the large amount of luggage pulled with the women.

The trip was over a month long.

During this period, the Emperor of the capital city gave the sixth prince Liu Heng and the seventh prince Chu Lan a title, in which the sixth prince Liu Heng was named King Yu and the seventh prince Chu Lan was named King Jing.

At the same time, that Ninth Prince also attended the enthronement ceremony and officially entered the court.

Just nine prince body weak, it is said that the day of the ceremony will be because of physical discomfort midway by the palace to help leave.

At the same time for people surprised by the attitude of the emperor to treat the ninth prince, after confirming that the ninth prince is the year when the queen Xu died before giving birth to the son, the emperor will be extraordinarily concerned about him, the degree of importance of the emperor more than any of the previous prince.

All the way to the boat, Wei Ruo followed the Wei family finally arrived in the capital on the day of the 25th day of the Lunar New Year.

Zhongyi Burial Mansion is located at the end of Vermilion Bird Street in the capital, the gate is magnificent, and the two stone lions at the entrance are quite majestic.

On the vermilion red gate, a gold-encrusted plaque was very eye-catching, and the four large and majestic characters of Zhongyi Burial Mansion.

Just a little closer inspection, Wei Ruo can see that the red paint of the gate has traces of peeling, the copper ring on the door is missing a corner, and the two majestic stone lions are also broken.

The fence is high enough that when you look in from the outside, you can see the gray-green roof and attic inside.

The procession went around the gate and into the side alley.

On weekdays this gate is not open, unusual family members go in and out of the side door.

When she entered, Yun once again urged Wei Ruo to be careful not to act recklessly.

Among the group, only Wei Ruo was a first time visitor to the Zhongyi Burial Mansion, and even Wei Yi Lin, who was still young, had stayed at the Zhongyi Burial Mansion.

After entering the mansion, Wei Ruo was taken to the Changchun Garden by an underling before being pulled by two maids to wash up.

Wei Ruo was flanked by several maids who cleaned her inside and out, and then they changed her into clothes that had been prepared in advance.

Wei Ruo looked down, the clothes are newly made, the right size, with good silk satin, it can be seen that it is still with thought.

Immediately after that, Wei Ruo was brought to Shou An Hall, which was the old madam’s residence.

Wei Ruo went around the screen to the inner room, which was already filled with people.
