Chapter 2251: Sharing the Good News with Mother

The two children were on the verge of collapsing, but fortunately, not long after, the carriage finally stopped for a break and meal.

Yao Mumu heard the voices coming from outside the Yao family's carriage and quickly climbed out of the carriage, tightly hugging Kang shi's neck.

Kang shi was taken aback and looked at Shu Yu with a smile, "Is this child unusually lively? I thought he was in Ah You's carriage, but it turns out all three of them came to you."

Shu Yu waved her hand at Mumu and replied, "They weren't causing any trouble. They slept in the carriage for a couple of hours and woke up to listen to me reading books. They were really adorable."

Kang shi muttered to herself, "..." She was shocked as she looked at her own son. Was Ah Yu trying to trick her?

That evening, Kang shi realized that Shu Yu had been right. Not only did she realize it, but Zhao Xi also regretted it deeply.

Since that day, Little Huohuo and Yao Mumu never spent half a day in her carriage again. Even Song Le occasionally got taken by both families to play with the two children.

However, with the absence of a few children, the carriage felt empty, and Aunt Hong felt uncomfortable.

Especially when she occasionally saw Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu holding hands, she wished she could sit on the front of the carriage and drive with Ying Xi and Xia Yan.

So, after a few days, Aunt Hong went to the mule cart of the new friends she had made these past two days.

Whether it was the Wan family or the Yao family, several masters traveled with their attendants. To travel light, both families brought a maid, a maidservant, and a coachman in addition to their masters.

The number of people was not large, and they all quickly prepared food and took care of the masters during rest stops.

Aunt Hong naturally couldn't sit idle and busied herself with them. Gradually, she became familiar with the two maids.

Both sides lived in the capital, were of similar ages, and had a good time chatting when Aunt Hong joined them.

Later on, she just decided to travel in their cart.

Shu Yu thought it was a good idea. When Aunt Hong returned to the capital, she could still maintain her relationship with the maids from both families. Their current relationship was good, so they would take care of her in the future.

With three children on the road, everyone's mood was good, and the journey was lively and not lonely at all.

Soon, the convoy arrived at Changjin Prefecture.

Because Meng Yunzheng's registered residence was in the Meng family of Chenggu County in Changjin Prefecture, the news of his top scholar success had been widely spread throughout the city, and the announcement had been delivered directly to the Meng family's escort office.

Everyone knew that Meng Yunzheng had achieved top scholar, and besides the family's happiness, he had become the talk of the town among the common people in the county.

Originally, everyone thought that Meng Yunzheng would stay in the capital to become an official, but to their surprise, he had returned.

Meng Yunzheng didn't want to cause a commotion, but their caravan was too large, and some people had sharp eyes, recognizing the big ox and Xia Yan sitting on the carriage, so everyone in town knew that the top scholar of Changjin Prefecture was back.

The threshold of the Meng family's escort agency was almost crushed, but Meng Xiaoshu had to mobilize all the guards still in the escort agency to barely stop the old friends and relatives who wanted to pay a visit to the top scholar.

Except for a few uncles and elders with whom he had a good relationship with his father, he didn't meet anyone else.

They stayed in Chenggu County for a day, first to pay their respects at Song Xin's grave and tell her that her son had achieved top scholar and was about to get married. Second, they had to pick up Meng Xiaoshu's family and go to Dong'an Prefecture to attend the wedding.
