Chapter 628 Departure
Lin Chang'er shook her head helplessly, "If my father-in-law wants to visit me, a junior, he can come whenever he's free. There's no reason for him to send a visiting card. Sister-in-law, this is really too much for me."
This answer gave Madam Chen enough face, which made her even happier. She tightened her grip on Lin Chang'er's hand and said, "Yes, yes, Chang'er, if you say so, I will take it as your agreement. I will go home on the third day of the new year to tell my father the good news."
While they were having a pleasant chat, on the other side, with Madam Huo, the Princess of Zhenbei, and Aunt Xu keeping them company, none of the other ladies were left out.
On the male side, the Prince of Zhenbei was present. Although he did not reveal his true identity, his aura alone was enough for the old friends to know that this man was no ordinary person.
Of course, the Prince of Zhenbei had to have some kind of identity, so he was simply said to be Wu Qingfeng's master, and no one dared to ask any further questions.
In short, everyone had a great time.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they went into the flower hall to drink tea for a bit, when the sound of a gong rang out outside.
Lin Chang'er stood up. "When it's time to set off, it's still raining outside. Uncles, please look out for each other on the way."
"Haha, no problem, no problem. Chang'er, you're too busy. Don't worry about us old folks."
"Yes, yes, Chang'er, you go ahead and do what you need to do. We're all old hands at this, and we've been to that beach many times. Don't worry!"
Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Go quickly, we can take care of ourselves."
Lin Chang'er bid farewell to the elders, and Xiao Jinyu, Lin Yanqing, and Gu Silang followed her.
Gu Xiaolu, Gu Xiaoman, Yu Ge'er, and Shu Jie'er obediently stayed behind.
When they arrived at the courtyard gate, they saw Zhou Li, along with Wang Dalang and Dazhuang, and several other older children from the Ciji Hall, already waiting for them.
Lin Chang'er wasn't surprised, and only asked Wang Dalang and Dazhuang, "Have you made arrangements for your younger brother and sister?"
Dazhuang stepped forward and replied, "It's all arranged. Lanhua and Lancao will take good care of their younger siblings and wait for the teachers to pick them up before they set off."
Seeing that they had made arrangements in an orderly manner, Lin Chang'er stopped asking questions and led a group of children to the dock.
Just like the last time the Linshui was tested, fireworks were set off on the ship.
But this time, neither her parents were there, and Wu Qingfeng had taken a group of people with him. She was in charge of everything and managed to use all the available resources, especially for the children.
Being chosen by her to set off fireworks is a great honor, so naturally I was very enthusiastic.
They had only exchanged a few words when Ah Da arrived in his carriage.
It was quite a distance from the Gu residence to the shipyard, and it was raining, so Lin Chang'er decided to take a carriage.
The main concern is that it might delay things.
The children boarded the carriage in an orderly fashion, and with a flick of the whip, the horse galloped off like a madman.
Lin Chang'er sat at the carriage door, lifted the curtain, and looked at the scene outside.
The villagers were already coming out in twos and threes, greeting each other on the road, and some were even knocking on the door so that their neighbors wouldn't miss them.
The roadside lampstands were all lit up, illuminating the entire interior so that the smiles on the villagers' faces could be seen even at night.
People stopped to greet her when they saw the carriage.
Lin Chang'er simply stuck her head out and waved to them, "It's still early, everyone can walk over slowly. If you're afraid of getting hungry or thirsty, bring water and snacks."
The villager patted the cloth bag beside him and said, "Everything is prepared. Thank you for thinking of us, Chang'er..."
