Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 396: Farewell
“What are you saying about dying or not dying! We are sisters, not enemies.”

Liu Sisi glared at her fiercely: “It’s just 500 taels of silver. Once you find San Mao, Sisi will introduce you to a good job. We’ll settle down first and then plan for other things.”

“Hmm! My dear sister, from now on, I’ll entrust everything to you!”

Liu Zhi’er clasped her hand and said seriously.

She had already made up her mind to work hard and earn money to pay off her debts!

“Teacher, is the teacher at home?”

As the two were talking, they heard a faint calling from outside. It was Ah-Juan.

Ah-Juan was particularly festive today. She came in from the outside and bowed her head: “Ah-Juan pays respect to the teacher.”

“Ah, it’s Ah-Juan who has come. Hurry up, come and sit here and let’s talk. Why didn’t you go back to your grandmother’s house today?” Liu Sisi warmly greeted her.

Ah-Juan had a joyous look on her face. She obediently got up and sat down on the chair.

“I didn’t go back! My mom and dad asked me to stay at home to prepare for the wedding, and they didn’t let me wander around! They have already calculated that the 18th of the first lunar month is compatible with my birthdate information, so they set the wedding date on this day. So, this year, Ah-Juan can no longer listen to the teacher’s teachings.”

As she spoke, Ah-Juan took out a red invitation from her arms and presented it with both hands.

“I hope the teacher can spare the time to grace us with your presence. I would be honored.”

Liu Sisi reached out and took the invitation, frowning frequency: “Ah-Juan, can you please speak normally with me? It’s very… uncomfortable.”

Ah-Juan glanced around and stuck out her tongue, patting her chest: “This is what my dad asked me to say to you. It made me so embarrassed. Teacher, will you come on that day, on the day of my wedding ceremony?”

“Yes, I will definitely be there, don’t worry.”

Liu Sisi thought for a moment and couldn’t help but instruct her: “You call me ‘teacher’, but I haven’t taught you much. Today, I will give you a piece of advice, which can be considered as fulfilling our predestined relationship.”

“Please do tell, teacher.”

“Ah-Juan, you have a sharp and strong character, and your unwillingness to admit defeat is not a good thing. But being too sharp can backfire. You must remember that in any situation, do not be impulsive, and do not force anything. Then you can definitely turn the tide!”

Ah-Juan grinned dismissively and then bowed in gratitude: “Ah-Juan thanks the teacher for the advice.”

Looking at the as-yet-unappreciative Ah-Juan in front of her eyes, Liu Sisi sighed inwardly, hoping this girl could have a safe and peaceful life.

The days of a small family’s daughter-in-law were not easy, let alone those of a wealthy family!

That night, Liu Sisi casually mentioned Ah-Juan’s visit, to which Di Yelei laughed indifferently: “There are many self-righteous people in this world. They believe they are born to be different and are meant to marry into a good family to enjoy a good life. Everyone has different thoughts, so you don’t have to worry about it too much.”

“I understand, it’s just that she is my student after all, and I really can’t bear to see her stumble, so I said a few more words.”

Liu Sisi sighed: “But you’re right, I was too attached.”

She sincerely hoped that every one of her students could walk a longer and farther path.

The next day, the snow was getting heavier!

The Gan family was up early and bustling about. Today was the day the entire Gan family was to enter the capital.

Gan Jiayou originally wanted to stay a few more days, but his vacation time was running out. Moreover, the weather was unusually cold this year, and it was snowing non-stop. Plus, the selection of studying companions for the princess could not wait. Unable to resist the anxiety in his heart, he set out for the capital ahead of schedule.

Before dawn, the caravan began to set off slowly.

They would not pass through the county but would instead head north directly to the capital city.

Along the way, Gan Miaoruo occasionally lifted the carriage curtain to look outside, hoping to see the familiar figure.

Time and time again, she opened the carriage curtain with high hopes, only to let it down in disappointment, feeling lost and despondent.

“Ruo Ruo, what are you doing? Constantly lifting the curtain. It’s so cold outside.”

Madam Gan Senior in the carriage couldn’t help but scold her.

Gan Miaoruo hurriedly approached Madam Gan Senior and held her arm: “Grandmother, I was thinking, ​​thinking… I…”

“What are you thinking about? How could your grandmother not know? But you two have already said goodbye that day, and with the weather so cold today, she couldn’t possibly come.”

Gan Miaoruo lowered her head in disappointment: “Hmm…”

The caravan gradually moved from the path onto the official road. After everyone had made some arrangements, the horse-drawn carriage began to move quickly. The pace was naturally different from their previous walk on the path.

Gan Jiayou sat in the carriage at the front, his eyes closely watching everyone’s faces. He then casually let down the carriage curtain and commanded in a deep voice.

“Let’s go!”

The manager beside him quickly shouted: “Set off!”

Immediately afterward, various sounds came from the caravan, and the carriage began to move slowly.

“Wait! Ruo Ruo! Ruo Ruo! —”

Afar, a rider rushed forward, galloping and quickly approaching, speeding alongside the convoy.

“Grandmother, grandmother, listen, is someone calling me?”

Gan Miaoruo suddenly became excited, happily shaking Madam Gan Senior’s arm.

“Stop it, there’s no one around on this big cold day. Who would call you? Stop daydreaming.” Madam Gan Senior scolded her. Out in the wild, she obviously heard nothing. Could it be that some filth had attached itself to Ruo Ruo?

Gan Miaoruo, who was not willing to give up, bent her ear to listen, and then quickly stood up, lifting the carriage curtain and shouting.

“There is someone calling me! Stop the carriage! Stop!”

The carriage did not stop, and it kept moving forward. Gan Miaoruo, unwilling to give up, leaned out the window and suddenly laughed!

She couldn’t help but wave her hand and shout loudly: “Teacher! Teacher, I’m here! I’m here!”

The approaching rider was indeed Liu Sisi and her husband, Di Yelei. They were riding a horse, speeding along the edge of the official road towards the carriage at the front.

Today was Gan Miaoruo’s day to enter the capital, and Liu Sisi wanted to send her off, so she got up early.

She had wanted to go to Gan Mansion to send her off, but when they arrived at Gan Mansion, they found that they were late. The caravan had already left Gan Mansion. Liu Sisi, unwilling to give up, chased after them.

Fortunately, Di Yelei was familiar with the nearby roads, and he rode a horse, leading Liu Sisi along the shortcut to the official road. Luckily, they finally caught up!

As the carriage continued to move forward, Ruo Ruo extended her arm, waving it continuously towards Liu Sisi.

Di Yelei controlled his jujube red horse, sticking closely to the side of the carriage, and made an effort to move forward side by side with the carriage.

The tightly wrapped Liu Sisi in his arms struggled to tear off her veil hat and leaned out from inside.
