Chapter 464 The Female Supporting Character Who Was Reborn as a Female Cannon Fodder 9

They will set off for the manor tomorrow. The servants at Yuhua Garden have been packing their luggage almost the entire day. The maids are going back and forth between several rooms, packing up everything they think may be useful.

When it got dark, Ji Le was still standing in the corridor, asking the servants to count things so that there would be nothing missing when they went to the farm.

Ji Lan stayed in the inner room, serving Sheng Huan medicine.

Sheng Huan drank it all in one gulp, her eyebrows slightly curved: "This medicine is not too bitter today."

Jilan quickly offered the candied fruit and couldn't help laughing: "Miss, you know you're leaving the house tomorrow, you're so happy that even the medicine has become sweet."

"You are so good, Ji Lan, how dare you tease me." Sheng Huan glanced at her but did not blame her.

Gillan chuckled.

-

Glass Garden.

In the dark room, Gu Yuexi huddled in the corner of the bed with his legs hugged, his mind frantically searching for memories of his past life.

How could she not have met Pei Jin? How could it be possible?!

In her previous life, she clearly heard from her third sister that they met on that day!

Could it be that her third sister had deceived her in her previous life?

She bit her lower lip and thought about her tragic past life, and the tragedy of no one in her maternal family being left alive. No! She couldn't let that happen again. She had to find Pei Jin, she had to find him!

-

The next day, when we were about to set out for Zhuangzi, we saw that the sun had finally come out from the clouds in the sky.

The sunshine illuminated the earth, adding some warmth to the winter. Sheng Huan did not slack off at all and changed into thick winter clothes and a red plush cloak. The cloak was so big that it almost covered her completely.

"Miss, although the sun is out outside, it's still very cold. It's still some distance from the mansion to the outskirts of Beijing. Miss, take the hand warmer. I just put some charcoal in it. It's warm now. Don't get cold."

Before leaving, Ji Le quickly brought out an exquisite gold-thread hand warmer and handed it to Sheng Huan.

Sheng Huan took the hand warmer and held it to keep warm: "Have you arranged for the driver outside?"

"Don't worry miss, everything has been arranged. He should be waiting at the front door by now."

When Sheng Huankuai left the yard, Gu also rushed over.

As soon as she came over, she pulled Sheng Huan to look her up and down. Her hands were busy as she adjusted her cloak, touched her hand warmer to test the temperature, and finally she couldn't help but look worried.

"Mother can't go with you to the farm this time. It would be better if your brothers were here. They can also ask any of them to send you off."

In the Shangshu Mansion, the three young masters are not at home now. The two elder brothers are still studying hard in the academy and have not yet had their holidays. As for the original owner's younger brother, he went to his grandparents' house to play before, and then he mischievously ran back to his hometown with several cousins. The road was difficult to walk on the snowy day, and he has not returned yet.

Sheng Huan spoke softly, "The suburbs of Beijing are not far away, and there are enough guards. Mother is busy, and she will have to entertain relatives who come to visit. There is no need to send her daughter away. Otherwise, she will feel bad for her after the trip."

Gu sighed and said, "Forget it. Although mother cannot go with you, she is still worried. I will let mother Xu go with you. She has enough experience and can take good care of you."

The mother and daughter talked without stopping and walked all the way to the gate of the mansion.

When we arrived at the gate, there were already two carriages waiting outside.

"Hurry up and get in the carriage. It's cold outside."

Gu urged.

"A daughter bids farewell to her mother."

-

The two carriages were moving slowly, one in front of the other. The coachmen were obviously very steady, and there was no bumpiness in the carriages at all.

When he came in, Sheng Huan found that the decoration inside the carriage was also very good. The blanket on the cushion was very thick and it was very soft to sit on. There was also a charcoal fire burning in the carriage, making it warm.

"Miss, it will probably take more than an hour to get from our house to the outskirts of Beijing. If you are tired, you can take a rest first."

Mother Xu was a capable person and she took extra care of people once they got on the carriage.

She continued, "Miss, Madam asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of cakes. If you are hungry, you can eat a few to fill your stomach."

Sheng Huan nodded and casually opened a book to read.

I don’t know how long it was after, but there was a loud "bang" and the carriage jolted, waking up the drowsy people in the carriage.

"Miss, are you okay?" Mother Xu quickly looked at Sheng Huan.

Sheng Huan shook his head and closed the book in his hand: "I'm fine, what's going on outside?"

Mother Xu was relieved to see that Sheng Huan was not frightened. She quickly lifted the curtain and asked the driver outside in a stern voice.

"How do you drive? What if you scare the lady?!"

The driver wanted to cry but had no tears: "Mother Xu, the wheels of the cart are stuck in the snow and it can't move for a while. I'll go down and shovel the snow right away."

"Go quickly!"

Mother Xu quickly lowered the curtain. Although she was stern to the driver, she was absolutely gentle to Sheng Huan: "Miss, it's not a big deal. We can set off after shoveling the snow."

Sheng Huan said "hmm" indifferently, but she was not as optimistic as Xu's mother. She now knew that the problem outside was not just the snow, but the rim of the car. The wheel was obviously broken.

Sure enough, after a while, the timid yet respectful voice of the coachman was heard from outside the carriage.

"Miss, it's too cold. The wheel is broken. I'm afraid it will have to be taken down and repaired."

What this means is that the people in the carriage have to get off, otherwise it will be difficult to repair it.

Sheng Huan didn't react much when he heard this, but Mother Xu's face darkened.

"Miss, I will go outside and take a look first."

Sheng Huan nodded, looking calm and composed: "Go ahead."

Mother Xu got off the carriage, glared at the coachman and several guards, then walked straight to the wheel to check. The wheel was indeed broken and cracked. She lowered her voice and suppressed her anger.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you check carefully before leaving? How could such an accident happen?"

After she finished scolding, she went to look at the carriage following behind. When she opened the curtain of the carriage, she saw that it was packed with things and there was no room for anyone to sit at all. Moreover, how could a young lady sit in such a crowded place?

The driver lowered his head lower and lower.

"Why are you so careless——"

While Mother Xu was cursing, the curtain of the carriage in front was pulled open, and Sheng Huan got off the carriage with the help of Ji Le.

"Oh, my lady, why did you come down? It's so cold outside."

When Mrs. Xu saw this, she didn't even bother to scold anyone and hurried over.

Sheng Huan stood on the snow, her red cloak covering her. The furry white collar made her face look particularly small, her eyebrows were soft and beautiful, and her slightly pale lips were curved.

"We've been sitting in the carriage for a long time, it's good to get off and move around. The plum blossoms here are in full bloom, I haven't seen them yet, now is a good time to enjoy them." Sheng Huan looked at the driver: "It's hard to drive in the snow, no one wants the wheel to break, and Mother Xu was just angry for a moment, it's not a big deal, go and fix it."

"More Miss!"

The driver nodded in gratitude and went back to work with a few guards. The remaining guards did not move and stood not far from Sheng Huan to protect him.

When Mrs. Xu heard Sheng Huan's words, she was not as angry as before.

The scenery around here is really nice, with large patches of plum blossoms blooming, the fragrance is refreshing. Even with a little frost and snow covering them, it still can't suppress the pride of the plum blossoms. They are the dancers of winter, dazzling and splendid.

Sheng Huan appreciates different groups of flowers blooming, she naturally likes them.

"Oh, it's snowing." Ji Le felt something falling and looked up at the sky quickly.

"It's Xiaoxue."

Sheng Huan stretched out her hand slightly, and snow the size of rice grains fell on her hand like lively elves.

At this time, not far away, the sound of horse hooves coming from the ground made a "trampling" sound, attracting everyone's attention.

A hooded man is riding a tall and handsome horse, dressed in a dark robe, with a long sword casually in his bony hands, as if he is not afraid of the cold at all. His hood is very long, blocking his face, making it impossible to see his expression, but one can still see his leisure, composure, and mystery.

When the guards saw the stranger, they quickly stood in front of Sheng Huan.

The owner of the horse didn't care and rode neither hastily nor slowly.

Sheng Huan stood behind the crowd, her hand covering the hand warmer, but her eyes subconsciously looked up at the man on the horse. Some snowflakes fluttered in the air and fell on her eyelashes. She blinked, and that blink was like a kiss from a butterfly's wings, making people feel as if they had returned to spring.

The man seemed casual, and his narrow eyes, which were faintly visible under the hood, looked over with a bit of nonchalance.

Their eyes met unexpectedly. She was stunned for a moment and didn't react. She just kept looking at him, her round and clear eyes, but the man quickly withdrew his gaze.

This man's aura was too strong. Even if he deliberately restrained his momentum, the guards still did not dare to relax, and even held the swords at their waists tightly.

The man, Di Chengyu, curled his lips slightly and his gaze fell on the woman who was surrounded and protected. He thought, this outfit really makes her look like a small lantern, very festive.

The man rode past on horseback.

It was not until his figure became increasingly distant that Jilanjile, who dared not even breathe, came to his senses.
