It had only been three to five days since Xu Nanyan and Dafang returned from Xu's Clothing Shop on Fansheng Street. During this period, Xu Nanyan was only busy preparing things and planning the trip along the way, and rarely interfered with other things.

Now that Dafang reminds me, I think of the Ming family where Ming Yunjing lives, and it turns out that the latter is Ming Songping's son.

so……

Xu Nanyan felt bad.

At this time, a hearty laughter came from not far away...

"Hahaha, I've been waiting for a long time, everyone! I went to pick up my daughter and niece Huanxue tomorrow morning, so I came a little late."

Fang Ruyi turned to look at her husband in surprise, and Xu Zhiqiu shook his head slightly at her.

Fang Ruyi guessed that her husband meant for her not to say anything, and she suddenly felt a little upset. No wonder Liu Mei reminded her over and over again that Xu Zhiqiu and Ming Songping always get together recently, and they don't know what they are discussing.

But it turned out that I was waiting here...

Not far away, there are three carriages coming from the Ming family.

The first one was an ordinary carriage that could accommodate five or six people, with only one horse at the head.

The latter two were pulled by three horses and were similar in size to the three carriages prepared by the Xu family.

In addition to the driver, there were seven people on the Ming family's carriage.

Ming Songping and Liu's couple, their son Ming Yunjing and daughter Ming Yunxi, followed by Xu Huanxue, the third daughter of the Xu family.

There were also two men dressed as boys who got out of another car. They were thin and inconspicuous.

But Da Fang, who was standing in the crowd, glanced with his consciousness and saw that the two people who looked weak on the surface were actually much more powerful than the two guards Xu Zhiqiu arranged for their party.

After everyone from the Xu family and the Ming family exchanged greetings, Ming Songping also explained his intention.

After listening to what the other party said, the one with the most complicated mood was undoubtedly Xu Nanyan.

Putting aside the matter of asking her father to ask Ming Songping to help write a letter of recommendation, she had actually been deliberately avoiding Ming Yunjing. Who would have thought that he would actually go to the south with them this time.

The terrible thing is that Xu Zhiqiu had made all the arrangements before telling her that she didn't even have any room for maneuver.

Ming Yunjing's reason for going to the south was all ready-made: to see his master who was far away in Lucheng. It was Ming Songping's teacher that Xu Nanyan and his party were going to visit.

As a result, Xu Nanyan had no reason to refuse.

Half an hour later, eighteen people from the Xu family and the Ming family, plus five carriages, finally set off.

The Xu family's group consisted of thirteen people and three carriages, while the Ming family's group consisted of five people and two carriages.

Ming Yunjing brought the two boys whom Da Fang had noticed earlier, plus two coachmen.

It's not like the Xu family, who even brought a few more drivers who took turns driving the carriage.

But before leaving, Xu Zhiqiu specifically told Xu Nanyan that he and Ming Yunjing must look after each other along the way, and the coachmen could also take turns driving the coach.

Xu Nanyan agreed one by one, but he was already thinking about how to avoid Ming Yunjing on the way.

Ming Yunjing always looked coldly at others, but when he saw Xu Nanyan, he seemed like a different person.

Da Fang, who has always been with Xu Nanyan, understands this very well.

After getting on the carriage, Ming Yunjing's eager gaze disappeared.

Dafang and Sibao were sitting in a carriage with the three siblings of the Xu family. The other three coachmen and two guards of the Xu family who were not driving the carriage were sitting in the rear carriage.

The remaining car was filled with things that would be used along the way.

Of course, in addition to seating people, the first two carriages also contained some items that needed to be used, because the space in the carriages was large enough, so it would not be a problem to put more things.

On the first day of the journey, we only walked for more than half a day because we left just before noon.

In addition, half of the group was traveling for the first time, so everyone was very happy and full of expectations for the future trip.

In the evening, the carriage hurriedly drove slowly and arrived at a small town.

After the group arrived, they immediately went to the Xu family's business in the city.

Because Fang Ruyi sent a letter to inform him in advance, Xu Nanyan and others received a warm reception.

When we set out on the road the next day, everyone was still in a good mood, but half of the enthusiasm they had yesterday had faded.

The third day.

Continuously riding horse-drawn carriages is a bit tiring, and even walking on a relatively flat official road cannot eliminate this practical problem. Several people who were looking forward to the journey ahead two days ago had no time to think about it.

After getting up after a night's rest, Xu Nanyan and Xu Lingyu were sore all over. They didn't even want to move around, let alone ride in a carriage.

The second young lady Xu Ruoxiang, the bodyguards, and the driver were all martial arts practitioners, so naturally there was no big problem.

The Maid Si Bao has slightly better physical strength because she works often.

Wen Fang followed Xu Nanyan. Although she had never done any heavy work, she had always exercised, so it was not a problem.

Looking at the members of the Ming family, except for Ming Yunjing who looked a little tired, the other four looked like normal people.

But everyone was concerned about Xu Nanyan and Xu Lingyu, so they decided to rest for a day before leaving.

It happened that it started to rain at noon that day, and everyone was thankful that they were not in a hurry today. Otherwise, it would not have been worth it if they were soaked in the rain on the way and got sick as a result.

But this situation did not make Xu Nanyan, who was accustomed to controlling the situation, feel lucky.

She was even a little frustrated. She didn't expect that the biggest problem she would encounter when she came back was riding a carriage.

Nowadays, she has two maids, and she is accustomed to letting Wenfang do things for her, while Sibao is responsible for the food and daily life.

Now that she encountered a problem and there was no one to discuss it, she asked Sibao, who had just finished tidying up the quilt, to go out and call Dafang over, and then asked Sibao to go about his own business.

Nowadays, among their group, there is only one enthusiastic maid, Si Bao, so if everyone is really not good at some things, they will ask her for help or ask her for questions.

In particular, Si Bao is very good at making all kinds of snacks, and Xu Lingyu and Xu Ruoxiang are accustomed to eating such things, so Si Bao is even busier.

As for the maid Da Fang, not even the second young lady and the young master of the Xu family dared to order her, let alone others.

"Miss, are you worried about your journey with the young master?"

Da Fang's words simply touched Xu Nanyan's heart. With this sentence alone, her previous depression was reduced by half.

"Yeah, what should we do? Although it happened to rain today, we can't always let everyone accommodate me and Lingyu in the future, right? If this continues, when will our group arrive at Lucheng?"

"How about... the eldest lady and the young master get up every morning and learn some body-building techniques from the second lady and the others? This way they can recover a little bit."

Xu Nanyan was full of hesitation. She remembered that when her second sister first started practicing martial arts when she was a child, she would always run home with soreness all over her body. Can this method work?
