Chapter 299: Chapter 223: Xiangmu Village

For a whole eight days, they were cramped in the small carriage, longer than Xiaomi had imagined, and by the end, she felt like she could hardly bear it.

During the journey, Xiaomi replaced the water in her flask with water from the Spiritual Spring and substituted her own food with the grain grown in her space.

She even made a special stop at a small town along the way to stay at an inn for two nights.

Even so, by the time they were finally nearing their destination, everyone was exhausted and dispirited.

When Cheng County appeared in the distance before them, everyone felt a surge of energy.

"We’ve arrived, we’ve finally arrived, this is great!"

Xiaomi was so excited she nearly jumped up. The tall city walls were far more majestic than she had imagined, and her mood was indescribably elated.

The speed of the carriage slowed slightly, and Xiaomi seized the moment to jump off directly.

"The carriage is too stifling, and now that we’re so close, I’ll walk for a bit."

After landing steadily, she took a long breath, finally feeling the solid ground under her feet, and the sensation was simply fantastic!

If there’s another long journey in the future, she hopes she can ride a horse instead, without having to sit in a carriage, traveling directly on horseback.

Throughout this journey, she saw many people traveling on horseback and couldn’t help but envy them.

At least, riding a horse doesn’t mean staying confined in a carriage, and horseback riding is really fast, much faster than a carriage.

Xiaomi moved so quickly that Erniang, in the same carriage, hadn’t reacted before Xiaomi was already on the ground.

Erniang hurriedly leaned half of her body out to say something just as the carriage came to a stop.

"Madam Jiang, it’s still early, and there are many people leaving the city right now, so the city gate is crowded. We can wait a bit, and Madam Jiang, you can come down for a walk as well." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Though riding in the carriage was a bit chilly in the wind, to be honest, it was at least more comfortable than staying inside the carriage.

Erniang got off with Xiaoxue, followed closely by Jiang Yu, and soon everyone from the other carriage got down as well. It seemed they were all stifled and wanted to walk around.

Jiang Hu, accompanied by Jiang Wei and Wei Ziang, walked up to his wife and children in a few steps.

"How are you all doing, are you tired?"

It was clear that even Jiang Hu, usually full of energy, looked a bit weary at this time.

"We’re all fine. Fortunately, we’ve arrived. After settling down, we can rest for a few days. By the way, Yu’er, your school is starting soon, right?"

Jiang Yu nodded: "Yeah, in about five or six days. I can show you around the county before that."

Just as he was saying this, someone ran over from a distance.

"Brother Jiang! Sister-in-law!"

It was actually Qixi! He had an unfamiliar person following behind him, probably also a servant from the Liu family.

"Qixi? What are you doing here?"

Seeing a familiar face they hadn’t seen in a year was a delightful surprise for everyone.

Qixi said, "Two days ago, the master received Brother Jiang’s letter, and guessing that you’d be arriving soon, he sent me to wait at the city gate."

Xiaomi was surprised, "The letter arrived so quickly?"

She knew that her father had sent the letter; it was sent to the post station while they were still in Xiangma Town, before going to the Liu family to look for someone.

"The post station mails are sent out every two or three days, and the messengers ride horses, much faster than carriages."

Qixi briefly explained and then looked at Jiang Hu and Erniang.

"Brother Jiang, Sister-in-law, the master said your new home is all set up, and people have been sent to Fu’an Village to fetch your things. Do you want to head into the city first or go home first?"

This "home" naturally referred to their new home, and it certainly wasn’t in the city.

Jiang Hu looked around at the children beside him, "Let’s go home first, tidy up, rest for a night, and then head into the city tomorrow for a look around."

It was already getting late, and soon it would be dark.

Although he knew Uncle Liu would surely have everything arranged for them once they entered the city, deep down they still preferred to first see what their future home would be like.

Qixi was not surprised. He turned and said a few words to the servant who had been following him. The servant nodded and jogged back.

"Brother Jiang, Red Fragrance Village isn’t far from Cheng County. It’s only a quarter of an hour walk, so it’ll be very convenient for the young masters to go to school."

As he spoke, Qixi led them towards another direction by the city.

"There aren’t many people in Red Fragrance Village now, and the house was built before the end of the year, a bit larger than the one in Fu’an Village."
