Chapter 1123: Back Home

Editor:Henyee Translations

That was just a precaution, and no one would ask about it.

At most, he would tell Auntie Zhu when the young master came to have fun.

They decided to leave in mid-October, with a few days left. When everything was ready, the two of them felt a bit reluctant to leave.

They would be separated for at least 40 days!

Actually, Shao Yunduan wanted Qiao Xuan to spend the New Year at home, and come back when the spring came. But Qiao Xuan did not want to do that.

She was going to spend the New Year with her husband!

She had already decided to hurry on the road, which would take at most 20 days. She was going to stay at home for seven or eight days, and she was going back to the capital by the end of November.

The wagon was light and simple. As long as they had enough money, they could hire all kinds of good wagons and horses. They did not need to worry at all!

Shao Yunduan did not want to be apart from her for too long. He kept telling her to be careful on the way home, so he agreed to wait for her to come home for the New Year.

But he did not want to leave before she left.

The two of them cherished the remaining time they spent with each other. They talked, laughed, and enjoyed each others company, wis.h.i.+ng that they could not waste a single moment.

When the night came, they embraced each other, expressing their love and pa.s.sion, knowing they would soon be separated. They held on to each other tightly, savoring every touch, kiss, and caress.

When morning arrived, Qiao Xuan slept for half a day. Lixia and Liqiu blushed and did not dare to say a thing, pretending as if they knew nothing.

Qiao Xuan, too, was pretending.

She did not want to make up for the lack of temperance. It was too conspicuous! But she felt sore all over when she woke up in the morning, especially at her waist. She could not even hook it with her fingers. She just needed to lie down and take a good hot bath to feel comfortable.

Every time the two girls pretended to know nothing, Qiao Xuan swore inwardly that she was not going to do that tonight. But when it was night time and they were going to be separated soon, they forgot about everything else.

Then she gave up the idea.

Her husband was the most important, and she should focus on the other aspects.

Shao Yunduan did not see her off on the day of departure. He put on the cloak for her, kissed her face and lips, took her hands and said gently, Pay attention to the clothes on the way, dont catch a cold. Dont be in a hurry, just watch out for the situation. If you really cant make it home, dont force yourself.

Qiao Xuan felt her heart warmed. She turned to Shao Yunduan and said with a smile, Dont worry, darling, we are so lucky to be able to see the light of day. We will have a smooth journey.

At least they did not have to worry about safety!

She would love to see someone picking on her.

Shao Yunduan was amused, but he let out a sigh of relief. Okay, my wife is so lucky, everything will go well!

The two of them exchanged a look and exchanged a few more words before parting ways.

Qiao Xuan drove out of the town and headed directly to Tianjin.

Songs.h.i.+ went to Tianjin the day before and arranged everything in advance.

When Qiao Xuan and her two maids arrived, they changed the wagon and started to travel.

It was still October, and the weather was slightly cooler, but it was not yet cold. If the weather was good and the sun was strong, it would still be hot at noon.

But overall, the weather was very suitable for traveling.

Qiao Xuan did not want to waste any more time, so the trip went smoothly.

But one day, Qiao Xuan sensed that it was going to rain, so she spent half a day on the road and decided to stay at an inn in the town after lunch, citing fatigue as the reason.
