Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen escorted them all the way until they arrived at the county town before they had to part ways.

She was in a rather anxious mood, but as she was carrying a large amount of goods, she could not rush without scruple.

Fortunately, supplies such as food, medicine, and clothing have begun to be continuously delivered to their destinations.

Since Ye Zining needs to leave Lujia Village in the near future, the children in the village do not need to continue practicing martial arts.

Of course, this matter must be notified to each child in time. The person who takes on this task is Ye Yongwang.

When the children came to the training ground one after another, Ye Yongwang announced to them the news of a temporary holiday.

He was worried that the children would slack off because of this, so he specifically reminded: "Although your master is not here during this period, you must not relax too much. You still need to practice more on weekdays. Take Chengsi for example, he You will stand alone every day. You are both older than him, but don’t let him compare you!”

The children echoed in unison to show their understanding.

After Ye Yongwang left, they immediately gathered around Ye Chengsi and asked all kinds of questions: "Where did our master go? Why are you not at home during this time?"

Regarding Ye Zining's whereabouts, Ye Chengsi knew clearly in his heart, so he answered without hesitation: "My fifth sister arranged for my eldest cousin to go to the beach and asked him to be responsible for supervising the situation there. It seems that there is something wrong with the shipbuilding department. Something, but I don’t know exactly what it is.”

Another child asked curiously: "What about the other people? What are they doing? Last night, when my brother got home, he said he was going to leave today, but he didn't tell me where specifically he was going. Do you know ?”

Ye Chengsi thought for a while, and then replied: "It seems that your brother went to the capital with my fifth sister!"

As soon as the children heard the word "京城", they immediately became excited and yelled.

For them, the capital seems to be a magical and desirable place.

"Really? They went to the capital! What kind of place is the capital? Have you ever been there in person? Is it fun there? I heard that the capital is very, very big, even bigger than our small county. It’s several times better! If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely go and see it!”

Ye Chengsi shook his head very frankly and with some regret, and said: "No, I have never been to the capital. But, I have been to the beach before! It's just that the weather is so cold now, no matter where I go, I Fifth Sister will definitely not agree to take us little devils with her."

I have to say that what Ye Chengsi said makes sense.

These children have given up completely. Even a noble person like Ye Chengsi has never been to the capital, let alone them.

Since they were destined to miss the capital, they could only bury their disappointment deep in their hearts and quickly change the topic to avoid continuing to indulge in sadness.

At this time, a child asked curiously: "Then when will they come back? This time they go to the capital, they will definitely bring back many enviable good things!"

Ye Chengsi pretended to be mysterious and said: "I don't know, this is different from what they originally said. My fifth sister originally planned to send my sixth sister to the capital, but I don't know what happened yesterday. My sixth sister and her attendants suddenly changed their route. At the border, my fifth sister rushed to the capital in person. "

He deliberately whetted the children's appetite and successfully aroused their curiosity.

However, because the word "border pass" has a bad impression in the minds of children and is full of danger and unknowns, no one dares to ask further questions.

This topic also ended abruptly.

Afterwards, the children practiced horseback riding on the training ground for a while, competed with each other on their martial arts skills, and then went home.

After all, they are still children, and it is almost impossible to focus on one thing for a long time without adult supervision.

When they returned home, the elders in the family couldn't help but wonder why they came back so early today.

They told their family everything about the small courtyard.

So the entire Lujia Village began to speculate again. They didn't know why they were setting off on the sixth day of the first lunar month. This seemed to be some kind of message.

What's more, the people in the small courtyard go to the border instead of the beach, which makes people feel even more uneasy.

Some people even went to ask Ye Yongwang.

"Yongwang, my children are not at home during the Chinese New Year, so why are they suddenly going to the border?"

An older Lu family villager asked curiously.

Ye Yongwang showed a smile and said: "Our caravan is going to the border to deliver some things. No, Zifen took a big order for making cotton-padded clothes from the border two years ago!"

After Ye Zifen's reminder, Ye Yongwang naturally would not tell the people in the village about the border issues, and could only use the incident from a year ago to fool them.

The villagers were still a little confused after hearing this, but it was hard to ask further.

After all, they are in business and have their own arrangements.

On the other hand, Magistrate Su was also very surprised when he learned that Ye Zifen had gone out so early.

At this time, he was thinking about Ye Zifen's wheat seeds.

In a few months from the beginning of spring, wheat will be mature. If it can be successfully promoted, it will benefit the people of the area.

But now that Ye Zifen was away, he didn't know who to discuss this matter with.

He thought to himself: "Well, I hope Zifen comes back soon so that I can discuss with her how to spread these seeds so that more people can benefit."

However, time passed day by day, and Magistrate Su could only wait patiently for Ye Zifen's return.

He knew that this matter was of great importance and must be handled with caution.

He didn't know if he could still be here when Ye Zifen came back. At this time, he was looking forward to the transfer order coming slower.

Zi Zifen walked all the way north. As she got closer to her destination, she felt more and more the strange looks from the people around her.

There seemed to be more greed and ferocity in these eyes than before.

Although he had been mentally prepared for this, this change still made Ye Zifen have to be on high alert.

Accompanying them were all children from the village. They lacked combat experience, which made Ye Zifen even more worried.

She knows that the journey to the frontier is long and full of variables. If any accident occurs on the way, the consequences will be disastrous.

So, she decided to ask the masters to follow Ye Ziwei to the border to ensure safety.

Fortunately, when those people saw the dazzling weapons they carried, they did not dare to approach easily.

This made Ye Zifen feel a little relieved, but at the same time he realized that the land route was too dangerous.
