After the New Year, shops in the town began to open for business, and Lin Mo and Cheng Yan's gourmet shops also reopened. After Lin Xiu returned to the academy, Cheng Yan also began to prepare what he needed to travel far away.
The carriage needs to be specially made. The shock resistance of the ordinary carriage is not good, and the cricket on the road is always indispensable. Cheng Yan is worried that Lin Mo can't stand it until he is half way.
In the early spring, the temperature has not recovered. The carriage must be warm, and some thick clothes and cloaks must be prepared. Dry food should also be prepared. Although it can be stopped and replenished while passing through other counties, it is still in case.
Returning from the outside, Cheng Yan walked into the food shop and waved Chen Mu up to entertain other guests, bypassing the counter and walking to Lin Mo.
"Come back." Lin Mo heard the familiar footsteps, looked up, and saw Cheng Yan come over, smiling slightly.
"Have you finished reading these books?" Cheng Yan sat next to him and put the things in his hands in front of him.
"Well ... boring to pass the time." Lin Mo said casually, pouring a cup of hot tea for Cheng Yan.
Lin Mo opened the pastry bought by Cheng Yan, twisted his fingers with one bite, and the pastry was soft and waxy, with some temperature.
Cheng Yan sat by the side and drank tea, occasionally checking out the guests who came. Lin Mo's tea has a special flavor, and Cheng Yan always feels much better after drinking.
After sitting in the food shop for one afternoon, Lin Mo told Chen Qing and left with Cheng Yan.
"I'm about to leave in a month, still don't remember anything?" Lin Mo asked as he walked.
"No, I rarely dream about those dreams recently." Cheng Yan shook her head, even if she had dreamt a few short clips, she would forget after waking up, unlike those who remembered well before.
"Well ... there is still another month, no hurry ..." Lin Mo nodded arbitrarily when he heard it, but was thinking in his heart. Recently, he gave Cheng Yan drinking spiritual spring water every day. After one month, he still can't remember. Is it no effect?
"Let's go to the capital with the second brother, did you tell your father and mother?" Cheng Yan asked.
"The second brother told his father and mother before returning to the academy, but did not tell them that they might encounter bandits on the way."
"Don't say the best, lest they worry." Cheng Yan nodded. However, the road to Beijing still has to take the official road as much as possible. If you ca n’t take the small road, you have to start during the day.
A month later, Lin Xiu returned from the academy to pack and prepare for the departure. Cheng Yan's custom-made carriage was completed a few days ago, and everything that needed to be prepared was also placed in the carriage. Lin Mo's food shop has been taken care of by Lin Cheng. Everything is ready. They will start tomorrow.
My son is going to rush to take the test. Lin mother brought her daughter-in-law out today to buy vegetables, and plans to make a rich dinner tonight.
The three brothers of the Lin family quietly hid in the room to talk while the family was busy.
"It's going to leave tomorrow, remember to be careful." Lin Cheng looked at the two of them and exhorted.
"Well, after my test message is sent back, my elder brother should not take their father and mother to the capital first, and wait for a while." Lin Xiu thought for a moment and said.
According to what Lin Cheng said earlier, after the news from his previous life test came back, their family moved to Beijing, and then they were forced into a conspiracy before long. Lin Xiu wanted to see if the path they took in this life deviated from the previous brother's trajectory. Will these accidents still occur?
Lin Mo heard the second brother's words, and opened his mouth to talk, but thought and shut up again. Cheng Yan's identity has not been 100% determined, and his memory is still incomplete, and he does not know what happened before the memory loss.
If the Lin family went to the capital city, while being framed by a conspiracy with the previous generation, it would most likely attract the attention of some people who were hostile to Cheng Yan. The matter of Cheng Yan must be resolved before the Lin family can be brought to the capital.
"I think it's safer to let father and mother stay in Daling Village first, and wait until all the problems are solved before moving the family to Beijing." Lin Cheng thought for a while and said.
If in this life, they would still be involved in those plots. Daling Village is far from the imperial city, and the Lin family will not be implicated in a short time.
"Then just do what Brother said." Lin Xiu thought for a moment and nodded.
"Mo Geer, you said that Cheng Yan restored some memories. You are going to take a look at the capital. Cheng Yan is from that place?" Lin Xiu remembered his doubts before and hesitated.
"Almost." Lin Mo heard the second brother's words, nodded, and nodded.
"So what does he remember? Is it in the General's Mansion?"
"Hmm ... almost ..." Lin Mo was a little uncertain, Cheng Yan was indeed a general.
"Then there are no women or brothers like him in the family?" Lin Cheng knew that Lin Mo in the previous life would hate the man with three wives and four wives, but he still worried that Lin Mo loved Cheng Yan too Let yourself be wronged.
However, seeing that Cheng Yan hadn't dealt with her brother in the village before, Lin Cheng felt that there should be no women in Cheng Yan's house?
"I asked him before, no." Lin Mo shook his head.
"I'll tell you after his work is done, his identity is a bit special, and it's not convenient to say it now." Lin Mo explained.
The less people know about Cheng Yan, the better it is. I do n’t know what is going on in the capital. What is the attitude of that person in the palace? Lin Mo is now afraid to risk the life of his family.
However, it has been more than a year and no one has found Cheng Yan's current location. Perhaps the secret person has not known that Cheng Yan is here.
"Big brother, do you know why Grandpa suddenly gave up business and chose to move to Daling Village?" Lin Mo suddenly remembered those words that Cheng Yan had said the next day of the new year and looked at Lin Cheng and asked.
"You ask this? I don't know. My grandfather died when I was very young. Since then, my father and mother have rarely mentioned grandfather." Lin Cheng heard Lin Mo's question and hesitated for a moment, thinking Want to say.
"But what impressed me most was the big boxes of books in our house. At that time, Grandpa wanted to teach me to read, but when my father and mother said that I was not interested in studying, Grandpa gave up. In the end, the second brother took them. Go and watch. "Lin Cheng tried hard to recall, said.
"The books are still in the father and mother's room. The mother said that she couldn't show it to anyone, and she couldn't talk to anyone about those books." Lin Xiu said.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Lin Xiu wondered.
"Don't you think ... Father and mother, are they hiding something from us?"
"Mr. Mo, come out for dinner, and send your three brothers!" The sound of Lin mother outside the room suddenly sounded, and the three brothers in the room shook their hearts.
"Know your mother, go right away!" Lin Mo responded and shouted towards the door.
"In short, brother, you find an opportunity to ask your father and mother during this time, maybe our family was not so easy to do business before ..." Lin Mo whispered.
"Don't you say I don't think yet, those books can't be found in our college ..."
"Go out first, talk about these things later, father and mother, they have their own estimates." Lin Cheng whispered.
Lin Mo and Lin Xiu glanced at each other, nodded and stopped talking, and the three went out.
When everyone arrived, they officially started to eat.
"Uncle Four, when are you coming back?" Lin Xiaoya asked while chewing the meat. Earlier, Lin Xiu said that the three of them would leave here to go to the capital. Lin Xiaoya also listened to them, naturally knowing that Lin Mo was leaving tomorrow.
"Uh ... Uncle Si is going a little far. It may take a long time to return." Lin Morton paused and said.
"It's been a long time ... Xiaoya has grown tall then, what if Uncle Four doesn't recognize Xiaoya?" Xiaoya was nervous.
Xiao Nan, who was sitting beside him, heard the food, clicked in his heart, looked up, and looked at Uncle Si nervously.
"No, Xiaoya and Xiaonan are so cute. Even when they grow up, the four uncles can recognize them at a glance." Lin Mo smiled helplessly.
"It's going to be a year at most ... Xiaoya, how tall can you grow?" Lin Xing put a piece of meat into his mouth, his voice was vague.
"Longer than Uncle Wu!" Lin Xiaoya affirmed with a look.
"..."
Success, I'm waiting for you to be taller than me, little ancestor.
Lin Xing did not speak, and continued to eat.
After dinner, Lin Xiu, Lin Mo, and Cheng Yan were called by Lin's mother Lin to talk. When Cheng Yan returned, it was a little dark. After packing, the two chatted in bed.
"Cheng Yan, you said that our house was really so simple as a merchant before?" Lin Mo asked in a low voice.
"You doubt ..." Cheng Yan looked down at him, wondering.
"Well, I didn't think so before, but so much happened during this time, I'm a little confused."
"After returning to Beijing, I will let people check it."
"Um." Lin Mo nodded and stopped talking.
Perhaps the past experience of the Lin family was not as simple as what Lin Cheng said.
In the end, Lin Mo didn't know when he fell asleep. When Cheng Yan woke up, it was already the next morning.
Today is about to leave. Lin Mo didn't lie in bed as usual, waiting for Cheng Yan to coax. After the two had been washed, Lin Xiu was already sitting in position to have breakfast. Lin Mu and Lin Dazhen got up early in the morning to prepare the three of them for the road.
It takes at least two days to go from Mulin County to the next county seat, and they have to prepare a few days of dry food. Mother Lin also bought a few thick clothes for the three of them, especially Lin Xiu.
Cheng Yan and Lin Mo themselves are ready. The main thing for Lin mother is to pack things for his son Lin Xiu. If you are cold and sick on the road, this is not a trivial matter.
Fortunately, Cheng Yan's carriage is big enough to put away the packed things and then sit on the three of them.
After saying goodbye to his family, Cheng Yan drove away with Lin Mo and Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiaoya took his brother's hand and stared closely at the distant carriage. When the carriage turned, he thought about turning his head to look over.
"Well, the carriage is gone, we should go back." Lin Xing came over and took one of them to lead his nephew and niece into the house.
"Uncle Five, Xiaoya misses Uncle Four ..." Lin Xiaoya was led home and thought about looking back.
"No, right? Your four uncles have just left ..." Lin Xing said helplessly.
