Fragrance Returned

Ding Zhao felt that people should not mistakenly think that Xiangxiang was in poor health after going to the capital, which would affect her search for her husband's family. She is a descendant of the virtuous queen, so it is normal even if someone finds her a bit fragrant.

Ding Xiang remembered her father's original intention and words when he asked her to wear pills, "When the girl grows up, she will wear fragrant pills instead of pills..."

Ten years have passed, she has grown up, the pills have lost their effect, and it is time to wear "fragrant pills".

Ding Xiang's nose felt astringent, she hugged Ding Zhao's arm and agreed, "Okay." Then she raised her head and called, "Daddy."

"Um?"

"Just wanted to scream."

Ding Zhao smiled, smoothed his daughter's hair, and left the house.

Ding Xiang took out a box from the package, took out the honey-flavored gourd pendant and put it on her neck. She also took out a colorful bracelet with honey-flavored piglets and small jade beads strung on it and put it on her wrist.

Immediately, a faint fragrance lingered in the nose, making Chan feel refreshing.

When her grandfather had nothing to do, she carved several small honey-scented pendants as big as the pulp of her little finger, including lotus flowers, lotus pods, piglets, balls, etc., which could be strung on different colorful bracelets.

Although the craftsmanship is not as good as those of craftsmen who specialize in carving, you can't tell it without looking carefully.

Lilac climbed into bed. Feifei was also happy, being wrapped in this smell, like returning to home in the mountains.

Before dawn the next day, Ding Zhuang called everyone up with a loud voice.

The courtyard was immediately lit up like daylight.

A dozen mule carts came in, and everyone carried everything they needed to take away.

Not only the Ding family came to Beijing, but there were also four "shopkeeper apprentices" and ten "female workers".

The "female workers" were bought by the Ding family to hook up clothes, and they ranged in age from teenagers to those in their twenties. The other five older ones have already married and remain in Linshui County under the management of Jiulu Zhixiu Pavilion.

After breakfast, the sky was bright.

Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao took the carriage driven by Yang Hu, which contained the family's gold, silver and most important things, including Ding Xiang's treasures.

Only the free-spirited purple dragon is in Lilac's arms.

Ding Chi's family of three shared a car, and Zhang's family shared a car with their children.

Some relatives and villagers were waiting at the entrance of the village to see him off, while others went to the pier to see him off.

Ding Zhuang and his son got out of the car again and said goodbye to everyone.

Several carriages from the Tao family were waiting next to Huiye Pavilion and followed the Ding family's motorcade towards the dock.

Ding Xiang stretched out her head, and the small mountain village and the familiar figure in the morning light became farther and farther away until they were no longer visible.

She leaned into Mrs. Zhang's arms and shed tears.

Mrs. Zhang also cried.

The Ding family chartered a two-deck medium-sized ship and hired ten escorts from the Longxing Escort Agency, with Master Qian Er personally escorting them.

Many people came to the pier to see him off, including Master Xue and Mr. Xue San.

They lived at home in the county town and even came to Ding's house for dinner the first day.

The boat gradually started moving, and the familiar mountains and rivers became farther and farther away.

Ding Zhuang, who was standing at the bow of the boat, wiped away his tears.

Ding Zhao advised, "It's convenient to come here from the capital. If my father misses his mother or home, he can come back and live for a while. There is 'Baotie' and so many industries here, and I will come back often."

Mrs. Zhang led her servants to pack their things.

Ding Chi and his wife were sitting happily in the cabin. As long as they could follow their father and brother, they would be happy no matter where they went.

Ding Liren and Ding Lilai stood excitedly on the deck, their longing for the future far outweighing the sadness of parting.

Lilac held Feifei's rope with one hand and waved goodbye with the other.

Goodbye, Beifu Mountain and Nanfu Mountain.

Goodbye, Chicken Head Peak.

Goodbye, Beiquan Village.

Goodbye, the best childhood memory.

…

I had just come here from the capital, and I was a baby who couldn't even turn over. All he thinks about is growing up quickly, accumulating all kinds of capital, returning to Beijing to expose the old witch, and drag down the fake Xunxiang.

After so many years, she grew up and accumulated enough capital, but her thoughts changed. Now what she wants to stick to most is this family and the people in her family...

Tao Weng stood aside and watched the excitement. He was very puzzled. The little disciple had a sad look on her face, without any hope or yearning for future life. She was just like her grandfather, not like a child.

Genius does make a difference.

Ding Xiang and her grandfather stood at the bow of the ship for more than an hour. The mountains were no longer visible before they returned to the cabin.

Ding Xiang, Ling'er and Feifei were in a cabin on the second deck.

Feifei flapped his wings from time to time, trying to free the rope tied to his leg.

Of course Lilac couldn't restrain it all the way, but had to give it an attitude.

She hugged Feifei and said repeatedly, "Don't run around. If you don't obey, I won't let you go. Follow me to your home in Jingcheng, Jingcheng..."

This time the word "capital" is repeatedly emphasized.

After so many years of training, Feifei is not only completely familiar with those passwords, but also familiar with Jitou Peak, Beiquan Village, East Courtyard, West Courtyard, Ganoderma lucidum, Mi Zhixiang, beef, chicken, mutton, fish, everyone in the Ding family, Zhang Laozhang, Sun Yumu, and Tao Weng have developed a sense of discrimination and will remember the word "capital" in the future.

After a long while, Ding Xiang untied the rope and let Feifei out through the small window.

The eagle's eyesight is particularly good. Even if it leaves Linshui County, it can still see Fushan Mountain when it flies into the sky. As long as it sees Fushan, it knows where its home is.

Flying all the way, Lilac hopes that it will know the way.

I don’t know if it can learn the way home after flying once. In the future, people will send it back to Beiquan Village every once in a while.

I hope it can fly back and forth on its own after a few more flights.

Heiwa climbed on the deck to bask in the sun. It has entered old age, is not as noisy as in previous years, and its reaction is much slower. The Ding family couldn't let go of it, so they took it with them.

In the evening, we docked at the pier and everyone went to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

Then we boarded the boat to rest.

It started to rain lightly the next day, but fortunately the wind was favorable and the boat was still moving very fast.

The rain is light, but Feifei, who is restless, will still fly up into the sky for a while before coming back down.

The weather cleared up the next day, and everyone was able to play on the deck again.

The whole family is on the boat, and there is room for activities. The key is that the scenery on the shore is good, it does not feel boring, and it gives you the feeling of enjoying the mountains and rivers.

Three days later, at Xu time, the ship arrived at a dock again.

There are several large and medium-sized ships docked for supply.

Except for a dark boat, only a few small windows let out a faint light. The other boats were all brightly lit and hung with a circle of red lanterns.

The moonlight in the sky is like silver, the stars are bright, the water is sparkling, fishing fires are dotted, and the shore is a faint town...

Lilac lay lying on the small window watching the night view.

The restaurants on the shore were closed, so we could only have something to eat on the boat.

Master Qian Er knocked on the cabin door one by one to say hello, "There are many Jinwu guards on the second boat on the left. Don't get off the boat and don't provoke them."

He was referring to the dark ship.

Ding Xiang knew that the Jinwu Guards in this era were different from the Jinwu Guards in previous lives. Part of their responsibilities was to protect the palace and the capital, and part of their responsibilities were reconnaissance, arrests, interrogations, etc.

Some are like the imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty in the previous life, whose authority was not that great. They had "prisons", but they could not kill courtiers at will or convict them privately...

However, they are all notorious and most people are not willing to mess with them.
