Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 441 Family Reunion, Hangover

Finally, they decided that Uncle Su He and his wife would stay at home and come to them if there was anything wrong with the farm. After eating, Su He and his family drove on and continued on their journey. They could still stay in a town in the afternoon.

They had been there once before, so they knew the route and when to get there to stay. If they could get to their own farm, they would not stay at an inn.

They walked and stopped like this, and arrived at the city a few days later. When they saw the city gate, Su He said in his heart, "I, Hu Hansan, am back again."

They followed the crowd into the city smoothly, and drove leisurely to their own yard. The city was still crowded with people as usual, and they were repeating their daily lives. There were many immigrants in the city, and even more locals, which made it overcrowded.

The inns and shops were full of customers, and the streets were filled with all kinds of people. Su He wanted to go to Kaihe Wharf this time when she had time. She thought about taking a waterway to the capital, which would be faster. The land route was slow because of the poor road conditions and delayed the trip.

These need to be inquired carefully in advance, mainly for safety issues. Although the country is stable now, there are still many small gangs of robbers causing trouble due to lack of information.

For safety reasons, they also need to follow the escort agency when traveling by land, otherwise no one knows what they will encounter on such a long journey. Even with a map, it is still very important to know where to rest, and the escort agency is the only one who can do that.

Just find a good boatman on the water. They all have boats from wealthy families and are staffed with people. As long as it is a big boat, there is generally no problem. Su He only heard about it from people in the city, and she didn't know the details.

When they got back to their own door, a coachman jumped off the carriage and knocked on the door. When the people inside heard that the master had returned, they hurried out, greeted him, helped lead the horses and drove the carriage, and walked into the yard together.

After they got off the car, they walked to the main hall to rest. Yingying and Qingming were busy fetching water and making tea. After a while, Su He's brothers and the masters who were accompanying them came over, and everyone greeted each other and sat down.

They all told each other about what had happened during this period. Because the Su family was relatively low-key, no neighbors came to disturb them. They just greeted each other when they met a few neighbors at the door. Because the adults were not at home, they did not visit each other.

This time when Su Heniang came, she had to bring some small gifts, and she needed to pay a visit to the neighbors. They were not ignorant of etiquette, and a distant relative was not as good as a close neighbor, so it was best to live in peace.

The whole family finally reunited, and in the evening they prepared a large table of dishes, all of which were the cook's specialties. Because of Su He's private teaching, the cook's cooking skills became more and more advanced, and she was on par with the chefs outside.

The children like Su He ate especially well, and paired with the fruit wine that Su He brought this time, it was really a delicacy that made people reluctant to put down their chopsticks. In the end, all the masters of the family got drunk in unison, and the servants helped their masters back to the house one by one.

Su He's father still held Master Ye tightly and thanked him endlessly, and Master Ye also thanked Su He's family for their trust. In the end, the servant had no choice but to pull the two of them apart and send them back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, everyone slept in and woke up one after another at noon. Because the wine was sweeter at that time and had no aftereffect, everyone drank some honey water and gradually became energetic.

Su He's brothers laughed and said, "Drinking is really harmful. We must be careful next time. Wine is a good thing, but we must not drink too much!"
