Stepmother dressed as five villains

Chapter 165 Arrival
Before leaving, Qiao Lianlian had a serious conversation with Han Zhao and Jiang Baiyin.

Han Zhao was very supportive of her going to the capital first, and even wanted to immediately mobilize funds for Qiao Lian to go to the capital to open a Sixi Building, fulfilling his long-cherished wish for many years.

However, Joe repeatedly refused.

As a newcomer, she may not be able to live a stable life in the capital, so how can she open a Sixi House.

But it's not wrong to prepare in advance, who knows if it will be opened in the future.

Unlike Han Zhao, Jiang Baiyin did not support her going to the capital.

"Chinese studies are excellent, and Lanzhou Prefecture can also find excellent private schools. If it is for this, it is really unnecessary to go to the capital." He earnestly said, "The emperor has a lot of gossip, and it is not a good place."

Joe smiled again and again.

She is not a vacillating person. Once some decisions are made, and some thoughts are raised, she will not turn back until she hits the south wall.

Like raising a few kids.

For example, go to Beijing.

Jiang Baiyin saw that she was so resolute, so he couldn't say anything more, he just said aggrievedly, "I followed you from Xieyang County to Xiyang Town, and then to Lanzhou Prefecture, but you are going to the capital now."

And the place he least wants to go back to is the capital.

"Boss Jiang, you don't have to follow me. You are a chic and free person, and I am the mother of five children. I have different identities and we are destined to walk in different paths." Qiao Lianlian smiled and promised, "But don't worry, as long as the capital city If there is Toshibado, I will go to Toshidodo for consultation."

Jiang Baiyin looked at her steadfastly, and shook his head regretfully.

Qiao repeatedly thought that he regretted that he could no longer work with him.

It wasn't until the day she entered Beijing that she realized that this man in fluttering white clothes was actually riding a horse with luggage and following her.

"Jiang Baiyin, didn't you say you didn't want to go to Beijing?" Qiao repeatedly raised the curtain and asked.

"I don't want to go in, but you want to, and I just want to be with you." Jiang Baiyin said seriously with a suppressed voice.

Qiao was startled again and again, why did these words sound a bit ambiguous.

But think about it, Jiang Baiyin and Gu Shao appreciate each other, and now he is new and widowed, he probably didn't do it on purpose.

Qiao smiled at him again and again, lowered the curtain, and sat back in the car.

The weather in July is very scorching, and it is inevitable that the back will be wet with sweat along the way.

Among the few children, Gu Lou was a little chubby, and he was even hotter.

Qiao repeatedly felt sorry for the child, so he kept fanning him, but he still couldn't relieve the pain from the heat.

"Mom, why don't we go to the capital." The little fat man yelled while wiping his sweat.

Qiao repeatedly wrung out the water-soaked veil and wiped his body to dissipate heat. "I'm going this time to see if your brother can go to Chinese studies. If he can, he will stay in the capital."

If not, he would naturally have to go back to Lanzhou Mansion.

Gu Que and Gu Cheng looked at each other without speaking.

Ever since Qiao Lianlian proposed to go to Beijing, the two brothers and sisters have been extremely silent, neither agreeing nor refuting.

Gu Cheng is fine, but Gu Que is faintly excited.

It's been almost two years since you left that place, are you finally going back again?
Gu Que felt that he was about to split.

On the one hand, she longed to go back, return to that hateful woman, and take back all that she had lost and that she had snatched away.

But on the other hand, she also covets a peaceful and comfortable life with her stepmother, because she and Gu Cheng both know that once they enter Beijing and see acquaintances, all the peace will disappear.

"Mom, it's still hot, it's so hot." Gu Lou was still yelling.

Qiao Lian had no choice but to ask Bi Songle to stop the carriage, and shouted, "Take Xiao Lou to take a bath and get rid of the heat."

After finishing speaking, he carried Gu Ge and Gu Zhong out of the carriage again, and found a shady place to let them breathe.

"Cheng'er, Que'er, you also come down to cool off." Qiao called again and again.

Gu Que responded, but did not move.

Gu Cheng also had a dignified expression.

The siblings had only had time to talk once since they learned that Qiao Lianlian wanted to go to Beijing.

At that time, Gu Cheng's attitude was not opposed, and Gu Que's attitude was not supportive.

This is a rare opportunity, the two brothers and sisters lowered their voices at the same time and started talking.

"Brother, tell me, do we want to find him when we return to Beijing?" Gu Que asked.

Although he didn't point it out, Gu Cheng knew it in his heart.

"Don't look for it." Gu Cheng's tone was very cold, "I'm just a scholar, with no power or influence, why should I ask him?"

"But..." Gu Que hesitated, "As long as we go to Beijing, he will come to our door sooner or later."

I heard from my father that he has been looking for them for a long time, and he has never given up.

"It's none of our business if he looks for him. We are mother's children now." Gu Cheng looked serious.

Gu Que was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Yes, their mother is now called Qiao Lianlian.

"Gu Cheng, Gu Que, aren't you two hot?" A familiar voice sounded from outside again.

Smiles quickly hung on the faces of the brothers and sisters, and they responded with a high voice, "Come on."

Then jumped out of the carriage.

Qiao Lianlian had already found a shade tree, and was enjoying the shade with his two children in his arms.

As soon as Gu Cheng and Gu Que snuggled up to each other, she handed over a glass of ice water, "Drink some, don't be greedy, and be careful of diarrhea. It's not convenient for us to travel. If you really have diarrhea, you might not even be able to find a place."

Like all mothers, she loves her children and cannot avoid nagging.

But Gu Cheng didn't dislike her nagging at all.

If possible, he would like to listen to it for the rest of his life.

……

The group set off at the end of July, stopped and stopped, passed through seven or eight county towns, and three or four prefectural cities. After walking for almost two months, they finally arrived in the capital.

In mid-September, the weather is much cooler.

The sweat was gone, and the children were very energetic, especially the three young ones, who raised the curtains one after another and peeked out.

Even Li Chunhua couldn't help but keep glancing out.

She was born in Lijia Village since she was a child, and the farthest place she has been to is Xieyang County. After arriving in Lanzhou Mansion, she was already amazed to see the carved beams and painted buildings all over the city. Regret following Qiao again and again.

The fee to enter the city is still one tael per person, but it has not become expensive because of being at the feet of the emperor.

Qiao repeatedly asked Bi Song to hand over, and a group of people drove into the capital in a carriage.

Jiang Baiyin had something to do and left first.

Bisong turned into a very bustling street, and Qiao Lianlian could hear the hawking outside while sitting in the car. Food and drink were all available, and it was more prosperous than any city she had ever seen.

As expected of the capital.

As he walked, Bisong turned away to some unknown place again, and the incessant hawking sound faded away, replaced by an indescribable sense of heaviness and tranquility.

It's as if you've arrived somewhere forbidding.

Soon, Bi Song stopped the carriage.

Qiao Lian opened the curtain, and saw a pair of lions carved in stone, a painted red gate, and a plaque glowing with gold.

The font on it was a bit scribbled, but Qiao Lianlian guessed it with a half-baked method, "Princess's Mansion..."

She was startled, "Bisong, what did you bring us here for?"

Bi Song was stunned, and belatedly remembered that the person in the car was not Grandpa, but Grandpa's wife.

He patted his pig's head, hurriedly grabbed the reins, and was about to drive the car away.

Coincidentally, the door of the Princess' Mansion, which had always been closed, was suddenly opened, and a tall figure slowly walked out.
