"What's the matter?" Lin Ruyi saw that it was getting late, and Lin Dong still came to look for her, probably something urgent, so she asked quickly.

Lin Dong glanced at Chu Jieyi, seemed a little afraid of him, and said in a low voice: "Brother and Third Brother arranged for me to be escorted to the capital, but now that you have arrived in the capital, I also want to go back early. Parents and the others must be at home. They were more worried, but when I went back, they felt relieved."

Lin Ruyi frowned. She had only been here for two days and hadn't gone shopping yet. Her fourth brother was going back, and he was going back alone, so she was definitely worried.

"Fourth brother, you haven't visited the capital yet. When you go back home, your parents ask you what's in the capital, but you can't tell. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow, see the prosperity of the capital, and buy some things." Lin Ruyi knew It is definitely impossible for her and the children to leave the capital, and the emperor will definitely not let them go.

They are the bargaining chips to contain Chu Jieyi, and they will never let them go.

Lin Dong thought for a while, and finally nodded.

He felt very restrained in the general's mansion, especially when those maids called him uncle, he felt uncomfortable all over.

He's just a mud leg, so he can't be called a master.

He felt that he was out of place in the capital, and he was wearing his best clothes, but in this mansion, those servants were all better dressed than him.

"Then fourth brother, you should go to rest early, we will go shopping tomorrow." Lin Ruyi saw that it was completely dark, and it was time to go to rest.

Lin Dong nodded, turned around and walked to his place.

Seeing Lin Dong's back, Lin Ruyi suddenly thought of something, and turned to look at Chu Jieyi.

"Let's buy some clothes for my fourth brother tomorrow. It was hard work for him to escort us all the way." Lin Ruyi said.

Chu Jieyi nodded, as it should be.

What's more, he doesn't care about these things. Anyway, he regards the Lin family as his own family, and it's perfectly normal to buy clothes for his family.

"The emperor rewarded a lot of cloth and satin before, and I ordered the people in the mansion to make two new clothes for the fourth brother." Chu Jieyi said.

"Well. Then let's go back first. I'll write a letter to my parents to tell them I'm safe." Lin Ruyi remembered that she hadn't written to them yet, and her family probably had been looking forward to it.

Chu Jieyi nodded, and then led Lin Ruyi to the study, where he grinded ink for her himself.

Lin Ruyi picked up a pen and started to write, writing more straightforwardly, without those polite words.

Telling what they saw and heard along the way, they all wrote about some good things, and didn't mention any bad things.

Said that they are now in the capital, everything is fine, did not mention Chu Jieyi's identity, did not want to bring trouble to the Lin family, they have lived in that small place all their lives, and have never seen any big people, suddenly a general's son-in-law appeared, It will definitely be very uncomfortable.

Said that they plan to do business in the capital, and they should not go back until the end of the year.

He also said that he missed them very much. If the business here is doing well, he will go back at the end of the year when he is stable. After the New Year, he will pick them up to visit the capital.

After finishing the letter, she realized that she had written four full pages, and put it aside to wait for the ink to dry.

Chu Jieyi was reading the letter she wrote, and seemed quite interested.

Lin Ruyi asked curiously: "What are you looking at? I didn't say anything bad about you."

Chu Jieyi raised his lips and smiled, "Madam's writing skills have improved a lot, but there are still a few typos occasionally."

Lin Ruyi was stunned, she was used to writing simplified characters, and occasionally forgot such traditional characters.

"Then, I, I haven't learned it before. It's not normal to make a typo. Then you can copy a copy for me." Lin Ruyi was a little embarrassed. After all, as an intellectual in the 21st century, it is a bit embarrassing to write a typo. .

"No, those few words won't affect you." Chu Jieyi shook his head.

Lin Ruyi thought that since it didn't affect her, then it didn't matter.

When the ink was dry, she folded the letter paper. Chu Jieyi gave him an envelope, put the letter in the envelope, and found some paste to seal the envelope. On the envelope was written the words Lin Cheng himself.

"How long will it take to send it from here to Baisha Town?" Lin Ruyi asked Chu Jieyi.

"Under normal circumstances, it should be three months." Chu Jieyi said.

Lin Ruyi listened to it for three months, which is too long.

Moreover, the envelope is only a thin layer, not to mention lost, but in such a short period of time, what if it breaks in the wind and rain.

"Sure enough, horses and chariots are slow, and there is only enough to love one person in a lifetime." Lin Ruyi couldn't help sighing.

It takes a few months to wait for one letter, and it would be good to be able to write two letters a year.

Listening to Lin Ruyi's words, Chu Jieyi frowned slightly and asked, "Then are you sending letters quickly?"

"Few people in our area write letters anymore. They all use the Internet to send messages or make phone calls directly. As long as we talk, we have sent a lot of messages. If we play video, we can still talk to each other face to face." Lin Ruyi said proudly.

Chu Jieyi was shocked. He had heard her talk about the events of their era before, and he was amazed by everything. He really wanted to go to the place where she lived and see the new things in her mouth. .

"I can arrange for someone to deliver it, and it will arrive in about 20 days." Chu Jieyi was afraid that Lin Ruyi would dislike the slow delivery of the letter, so he would go back without saying a word, and he planned to send it back quickly.

Lin Ruyi heard that 20 days is much faster than three months.

"Okay, will that be more troublesome?" Lin Ruyi asked curiously.

Chu Jieyi shook his head, the trouble was okay, but the messenger was tired and had to travel day and night.

"Then you can arrange someone to help deliver it, and then you can pay them a little more. I am mainly afraid that my parents will worry if they wait too long. Let them know that we are safe and well, so they can rest assured." Lin Ruyi said.

"Okay." Chu Jieyi nodded.

Tao Hong brought hot water for them to wash. Lin Ruyi wanted to soak their feet. After traveling for so long, they finally arrived at their home and needed to soak their feet to relax.

Tao Hong was going to stay and wait for Lin Ruyi to soak her feet, but was called out by Chu Jieyi, who washed Lin Ruyi's feet himself.

Lin Ruyi was a little embarrassed at first, after all, washing feet always felt too strange, but she gradually relaxed.

"Don't you have to go to the court?" Lin Ruyi remembered watching TV in the past. Don't all civil and military officials have to go to court in the morning?

"I asked the emperor for three days' leave to accompany you and the child, and I will go to court in three days." Chu Jieyi replied while helping Lin Ruyi wash her feet.

Lin Ruyi nodded, since this is the case, the whole family will go shopping tomorrow.

At night, she lit aromatherapy to help her sleep, and with Chu Jieyi around, she slept better in his arms.

Before dawn the next morning, a knock on the door was heard, waking up the two sleeping people.

"What's the matter?" Chu Jieyi asked in a deep and displeased voice.

"Master, the prince from the palace has come and said he has something urgent to see you, and he is waiting in the front hall now." Tao Hong whispered outside the door.
