Chapter 269 Wang Clan Emblem
The dull atmosphere in the family was diverted by the topic that Wang Wenxin was a little monster.
The elder brother recalled what his mother had advised him six years ago:
"…I took the elixir to get Wendong, and because I thought the child was well-behaved and smart, I took the elixir when my sister was born!…"
Now my younger brother actually believed in the idea of eating the elixir. Wang Wendong looked at his mother gratefully and smiled knowingly...
The next morning, Wang Jinyi was awakened by her mother, who personally helped her daughter wash and dress up and put on new clothes.
Perhaps because she wanted to bring good luck when she went out, the mother chose a light smoky-colored blouse for her daughter, with snow-white pear blossoms embroidered with silver thread on the shoulders.
She wore a lavender long skirt with two silk ribbons hanging from a wide belt.
The mother looked at her daughter, who had grown into a beautiful girl, with tears in her eyes.
She is only 9 years old this year, with slanted dark eyebrows, black, bright and clear eyes, and a bit of baby fat on her fair face. She tilts her head and looks at her mother with a smile in her eyes, like a delicate flower, extremely beautiful.
The mother had a thousand reasons in her mind and didn't want her daughter to go on a long journey. She took a handkerchief and wiped her cheek with it. Alas, this was the child's wish and the family had made all preparations, so she decided to satisfy the child!
But I just can't bear to do it!
Wang Jinyi naturally had no idea of his mother's mood at the moment and did not take it seriously. This journey was less than 1500 miles, which was just a little more than the distance from school to home in his previous life. It was not far, so he naturally did not take it seriously.
In ancient times, most people would only leave the county town two or three times in their lifetime. As for women in the inner chambers like my mother, she might have to stay in this square world for her entire life, unable to move an inch!
"Mother, I will definitely take a good look at the outside world, come back and write more notebooks, write down all the interesting things outside, and tell you..."
The mother looked at her daughter's little face which turned red with excitement and didn't know how to express her inner worries.
The family gathered at the dining table for breakfast. The atmosphere was dull and the parents were silent.
"Although I hired the three chefs in the kitchen of my mother's second room, they only cooked for me and my brother at the time. If you think the food doesn't suit your taste, you can find someone else. They signed a contract and stayed in the kitchen. I can still afford the wages.
Don’t worry about what I think, the meal should suit the taste of the family.”
The mother glared at her daughter in disapproval. "You still have to worry about these little things? Think about what you should do on the road..."
Before she finished speaking, her mother's voice was already choking. Wang Jinyi smiled and threw herself into her mother's arms:
"Mother, I have grown up. I want to go out and see what the sky is like without the walls. Please let me go this once, and I will never run away again!"
Wang Jinyi said this, but she was thinking in her heart: If there is a first time, there will be a second time. I will always find a reason to run away until I find him!
The parents believed their child's statement that she was only going out this once. It was a rare opportunity for a girl to go out, not to mention that for someone like Wang Jinyi, the clan had special approval and sent people to protect her. This was such a rare opportunity.
After dinner, because my parents wanted to ask for help from their uncle, our family of five left the second courtyard, walked through the landscape, bypassed the woods and went up the small bridge.
Wang Yueyi, standing at the door of the big room, shouted:
"Jin'er, you have to come back early, write down all the interesting things on the road, and tell me when you come back!"
Wang Jinyi agreed and turned around to wave to the young lady.
Wang Yueyi responded by waving her hands happily, and whispered a few words to the maid beside her. She handed something to the servant girl beside her, and the servant girl ran over and respectfully handed it to Wang Jinyi with both hands.
Although I guessed that the little sister wanted to give me something, I also thought that it might be the needlework of my sister herself.
You know, in ancient times, it was a common gift for women to give hand-sewn sachets and purses as gifts. After all, these were the only things they had access to and were good at!
When Wang Yueyi returned to the old house, she said that she wanted to give herself a purse that she had embroidered herself. Now is the opportunity to give her the purse.
There was a word "Yue" clearly embroidered on the purse with black silk. Wang Jinyi held it in her hand, feeling warm at heart. She picked up the purse, held it high in the air, and waved goodbye to Wang Yueyi who was inside the main room.
Almost all the male members of the family gathered in the front yard. The grandparents had also arrived early and were waiting for the second branch of the family to come and give them some instructions.
Wang Jinyi said goodbye to her whole family.
The family escorted Wang Jinyi around the west wing and out of the west side door. Five carriages were parked in a row in front of the door, and there were 8 men and 10 women, a total of people, riding on horses, standing on both sides of the carriages.
Seeing the scene in front of the door, Wang Jinyi was a little shocked. It turned out that there was some sense of ritual when traveling.
Compared with the backpacking hiking with Chen Zhiyuan in the previous life, they only had a pair of hiking shoes and a backpack, and the two of them traveled around the world hand in hand.
Compared with the current display in front of the door, it does seem less imposing, but more practical.
Wang Jinyi shook his head with some excitement and chuckled.
The mother was in tears behind her daughter. When she saw her daughter was still smiling when she left the house, she felt really sad and felt that she had raised a heartless girl!
The mother gently covered her chest with her hands in sorrow. The father had been observing her, patted her shoulder gently, and said in a soft voice to comfort her:
"The child will grow up and eventually leave us. Don't be too sad. She won't be in any danger, but relax!"
The mother glanced at her father with tearful eyes and pushed his hand away angrily.
Grandfather walked out of the courtyard, followed by father, third uncle, and eldest cousin. They walked to the carriage and bowed to their uncles. Grandfather also hung the family emblem he was wearing on the door of the first carriage...
The grandfather silently stated that he wanted all the descendants of the Wang family to take care of his granddaughter. In fact, all the shops in the Wang family knew the family emblem and would provide help to Wang Jinyi!
Looking at the family members standing in front of the door, Wang Jinyi solemnly bowed to everyone and said goodbye.
Two servants helped the young lady get into the car. Behind Wang Jinyi followed Feng Jie, who was dressed as a maid. After they sat down, the curtains were lowered. Wang Jinyi lifted the curtains and stuck her head out to look around. Her mother motioned for her daughter to retract her head and pretended to be angry.
The uncle, riding on his horse, clasped his fists and bowed to say goodbye to everyone. He turned around and looked at the heartless girl who was laughing at the curtains.
"set off!"
When the carriage left the alley, Wang Jinyi lowered the curtain and asked Sister Feng softly, "Have they left yet?"
Sister Feng nodded and pointed outside the carriage.
Wang Jinyi understood that she was reminding herself to be careful of people outside the car.
Wang Jinyi lifted the curtain and looked. In front of the carriage were the two Mr. Wus, and behind were July and Fifth Sister, all riding on horses, walking side by side.
In front of the carriage were the uncle and four bodyguards, clearing the way for him. The flag of the escort agency was stuck on the shaft of the carriage. This was double protection from the escort agency and the Wang clan!
