Chapter 518 Departure
The sixth day of May, Chen time.
The sky is blue and cloudless.
The gate of the city has been opened, and a long line of carriages is slowly driving out of the gate.
Dozens of carriages lined up in a long line, driven by escorts from the county escort, accompanied by twenty guards riding horses with long knives on their waists, majestic.
According to the regulations of the township lord, Yang Lan'er can raise two hundred guards, but now the twenty guards are still too few, and she can recruit again in the future.
There are many people in the county who like to join in the fun. People who get up early come to watch the fun, crowding around the roadside, stretching their heads to look around, tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk.
"Do you know who this is? Is this a move?"
"You don't know this, tsk tsk, this is the Lord Township of our county, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes promoted in our county are new grains discovered by the Lord Township."
"Lord Xiangjun is going to the border to reunite with her husband. I don't know what are these dozens of carriages loaded with?"
"Look, the county magistrate and officials from the county government have come to see him off."
...
The whispers of the common people reached Yang Lan'er's ears, but she just laughed it off.
Parting moments are always sad.
Yang Cunzhi drove the ox cart into the convoy, and the convoy stopped when all the carriages had left the city gate.
In the carriage, Yang's mother hugged each child reluctantly, "Lan'er, the journey is long, take good care of yourself and the children along the way, it's okay to walk slowly, the first thing to do is to ensure the health of the children."
Yang Lan'er saw Yang's mother's reluctance, and nodded distressedly: "Well, mother, don't worry, we arrived at the border safely, and I will let the escorts bring the letter back."
"Madam, the county magistrate brought people from the county government to see him off." Xiao Jiu knocked on the wall outside the carriage.
"Mom, let's go down."
"Okay, you go down first. I'll hug the children later."
Yang Lan'er smiled helplessly: "Okay."
The people who came to see him off, in addition to the people from the county government, there were also several squires and their wives.
"Mr. Xiang, this journey is high and the river is long. I don't know when we will be reunited. We hope that you will arrive at the border smoothly and reunite with brother Tan's family. Take care all the way, Mr. Xiang!" Su Yongqing cupped his hands sincerely, and his words were sincere.
Yang Lan'er's eyes showed emotion: "Thank you, sir, for coming to see you off. This year, the promotion of new grain in our county depends on your troubles. I'm waiting for your good news at the border."
Su Yongqing heard about the new grain, and grinned: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, if you don't understand, I will ask the technician you gave me, and I will definitely not disappoint you."
Yang Lan'er glanced at Su Yongyuan who was standing beside Su Yongqing, and smiled: "Mr. Su, I will trouble you for everything at the county dock. I look forward to our next meeting."
Su Yongyuan nodded noncommittally: "It should, just prepare a few jars of fine wine for me next time we get together."
"Definitely." Yang Lan'er bid farewell to the county magistrate and others one by one.
Then he looked at the squires on the other side, and there were a few slightly familiar faces. Seeing the sullen Jin Lu standing beside Mrs. Jin, he forced a stiff smile at her.
Yang Lan'er returned a bright smile, getting engaged to someone she doesn't like, isn't it very tormenting?
Looking at another handsome face with some impressions, it was not very good-looking in the first place, and the whole face was distorted due to jealousy, Xiang Youxinsheng was right.
Yang Lan'er glanced at Lai Ruoxian, and looked away as if nothing had happened. Originally, she looked down on peasant women. Once she became a sixth-rank township lord respected by everyone in the county, two ranks higher than the county magistrate, the girl must be envious and jealous. .
