As soon as the middle-aged man came in, he noticed them. All of them had white clothes on their bodies, so it could be seen that they belonged to a group.

Captain Wu got up and bowed his hands politely.

"This lord is very polite. It is convenient for others and for yourself. We have too many people and occupy too many positions."

Just when the adult was about to speak, the postmaster also came over at this time.

With a flattering smile on his face, he said to Captain Wu and Zhou Cheng: "Please forgive the two adults, the villain has just counted, and there are 18 family members and entourage of the Yu who just arrived. The room has been reserved by the two adults, can you ask the two adults to vacate the two rooms?"

The station chief said that he bowed lower, and he couldn't help it. Who would have thought that so many people suddenly came to check in today.

Usually, they would not be able to see a single figure for half a month.

Captain Wu looked at Zhou Cheng.

Master Yu also discovered at this time that Zhou Cheng was the leader of their team.

Zhou Cheng opened his mouth and said to the postmaster, "Could it be possible to live in two rooms?"

"Yes, it should be possible. After all, adults, you all live in a room of more than ten people. The rooms in the station are all Datong shops. You can sleep if you squeeze them." The station leader quickly replied.

Although Zhou Cheng and the others were many, the newly arrived Mr. Yu was also a court official who wanted to return to Beijing to report on his duties. They also couldn't afford to offend him. If they were businessmen, they could choose not to accept them.

Zhou Cheng turned his head to Pei Xiu and the boys at the table next to him and said, "Since they are all Datong shops, they can sleep well. You two will share a room with us tonight. out."

Pei Xiu nodded, no objection, they were all a family.

At the same time, Master Yu heard the little servant coming to report, saying that the backyard is full of guards and horses, and there are expected to be more than 100 people.

He was surprised. He thought everyone was in the lobby, but he didn't expect that there were more than 100 people in the backyard.

With so many bodyguards in a funeral, his identity is definitely not ordinary.

Doesn't this old man look small?

He sent the servant away, and said humbly: "Thank you two adults, it's inconvenient to be outside, it would be good to have a place to live. My family and I are in a small room, and the other servants can squeeze in a room. After all, there are more people.”

"I don't know how the two adults are called? The lower official originally served as the prefect of Tongzhou.

This time, the term of office has expired, and I have to return to Beijing to report on my work. "

Tongzhou? Isn't it in the state capital next to their city? It's pretty close, so it's no wonder we'll meet.

I heard that there is a sea in Tongzhou, and most of the locals are fishermen. It is no wonder that everyone has a fishy smell just after carrying their luggage.

This Master Yu should be wearing a lot of dried fish and shrimp.

Zhou Cheng politely asked Master Yu to sit down and made tea for him.

"Zhou is a military general, and the official is the third-rank Wuyi general. This is the captain of the palace. This is a fate. Master Yu might as well sit down and have a chat."

The prefect is from the fourth rank, and the official position is really higher than him!

The smile on Mr. Yu's face deepened, he sat down and chatted with them a few words.

He was returning to Beijing to report his work, and it might be helpful for him to know a few high-ranking officials. It would be great if he could stay in Beijing.

There were all men present, and they were all talking about official affairs. Pei Xiu was inconvenient to stay for a long time. Seeing that the wheat was finished, he left and went back to his room first.

It was raining outside, and the house was very humid. Sister Li specially lit the house with mugwort leaves and went to deodorize and disinfect it.

Seeing Pei Xiu coming in, he muttered, "I don't know how long the rain will last. Can we leave tomorrow?"

"Looking at the rain, it's not very big. If it doesn't stop, it's fine to stay for another day tomorrow." Anyway, they have plenty of time.

"The slaves are worried that the environment is poor and that the lady and the girl will not live comfortably."

Pei Xiu smiled, "For those who are out and about, it would be nice to have a place to rest. I haven't slept in the wilderness before, so it would be nice to have shelter from the wind and rain here."

"It's a general's blessing to be able to marry a wife who shares honor and disgrace like Madam."

"I did get lucky!"

The misfortune of the previous life did not carry over to this life.

"You've been busy for a while. Let's eat something first. I'll make the bed myself."

"Hey, the servant goes down first, and the madam will call the servant again if you have something to do."

Wheat was still thinking about the watermelon picked in the afternoon, hugged her leg and said, "Mother, can we still cut the watermelon to eat?"

"No, I've eaten it in the afternoon, it's a bit cold at night and can't eat anymore, I'll have diarrhea after eating it."

As she spoke, she rubbed Mai's stomach, "You just finished eating, and your stomach is still bulging. You can eat it at noon tomorrow."

Wheat was about to act coquettishly to protest when she heard her elder brother's voice.

"Wheat, wheat..."

Zhou Yong rushed in excitedly, "Look at what this is?"

"What a big snail..."

Wheat widened his eyes and reached out to take it, looking at it carefully.

"No, it's a conch!"

"Mother, do you know?" He looked at his mother in surprise.

"What's so strange?" Pei Xiu said indifferently, "Open your ears and listen, there should be a voice."

Driven by curiosity, Mai did as he did, put the conch close to his ear, and said in surprise, "Really, where did the big brother come from?"

"It was given by the son of Yu's family. We chatted with him just now downstairs. He said that his father's place of work was near the sea. He picked up a lot of conch shells and gave us one. I'll give it to you."

"Thank you bro!"

After Zhou Yong offered the treasure, he slipped down to play again.

Wheat couldn't put it down and played it, and listened to it from time to time, until he fell asleep, he still held it in his hand.

Pei Xiu carefully took it away from her and put it away, otherwise she would be badly slept at night and roll around, and it would be uncomfortable if pressed.

They are not in a hurry,

The tickling of rain outside the house didn't stop until midnight.

As soon as dawn broke the next day, Master Yu got up. In the backyard watching the attendants packing their luggage, he saw Zhou Cheng and a few boys who also got up early.

He smiled and said, "Master Zhou also got up so early? Aren't you in a hurry?"

"Master Yu, we have the habit of morning exercise."

"Oh, huh, this is a good habit. No wonder the boys in your family seem to be in good spirits and healthy. I thought you guys changed your mind and you can go on the road together."

Zhou Cheng said politely: "We have filial piety, and it is inconvenient to walk with adults. The adults will go first, and we will set off later. Maybe we will meet in the next town."

Having said that, Master Yu didn't force it, and he didn't have that much time to walk slowly with them.

He is their bodyguard!

All sabers are very safe at first glance, so you don't have to worry about the safety of walking with them.

Since the king of Liaodong succeeded to the throne, the banditry in Liaodong has resurfaced, and I heard that this year it is even more rampant.
