Chapter 236: After breakfast, ready to set off
Leng Rongyue turned around and went to the inner room.
Touching my hair, it's almost dry.
Leng Rongyue got on the bed and lay down, reaching out to pull the quilt over her.
Lying in bed, Leng Rongyue's mind was reminiscing about this afternoon's trip to Banshan County and Dashi Village;
Thinking about tomorrow's plan to go into the mountains.
Gradually, sleepiness came over her, and Leng Rongyue closed her eyes and fell asleep.
At daybreak, Leng Rongyue was awakened by the first crowing of a rooster.
Leng Ruoyue opened her eyes and for a moment she felt as if she didn't know where she was.
Listening to the roosters crowing one after another, Leng Rongyue smiled.
She stretched, yawned, threw back the quilt, and turned over to sit up.
Leng Rongyue put on her shoes and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash up.
Hearing the movement in the house, Zi Yi's voice came from outside the door, "Miss, are you up?"
"Yes, come in." Leng Rongyue said as she walked into the bathroom next door.
There were all kinds of toiletries in there, so she didn't need anyone to serve her. She rinsed her mouth and washed her face by herself, then walked out and sat in front of the dressing table.
Zi Yi came over, picked up the comb and combed Leng Rongyue's long hair.
Just as Zi Yi was about to tie Leng Rongyue's hair, Leng Rongyue stopped her, "I'll do it myself.
We are going into the mountains today, not to take a walk by the lake, but to have fun in the mountains.
We should comb our long hair tighter."
As she spoke, Leng Rongyue first combed her long hair into a high ponytail, then braided it into a long braid, which she then coiled up in circles and secured with pins.
She shook her hair bun, but it didn't move at all. Leng Rongyue nodded to show her satisfaction.
She also picked up two exquisite pearl flowers from the dressing table and put them on the side of her bun.
Leng Rongyue turned around and looked at Zi Yi, "In a while, you will comb your hair like this too.
When we go into the mountains, we wrap our hair with a cloth to prevent the bushes and vines from scratching our hair."
"Yes, miss!" Zi Yi nodded in agreement.
Yes, the lady is very thoughtful. There are shrubs and vines in the mountains that can shave your hair.
As the master and servant were talking, a man in green came to the door and said, "Miss, the old lady and the two ladies are here!"
"Oh!" After hearing this, Leng Rongyue hurriedly stood up and went out to greet him.
Leng Rongyue was just thinking about whether she should say goodbye to her grandmother and two aunts before going out.
I didn’t expect that grandma and my two aunts also got up so early!
As soon as Leng Rongyue arrived at the door, she saw the first and second wives supporting the old lady coming, followed by several maids and old women, holding trays with breakfast on them.
"Grandma, why did my eldest and second aunt get up so early?
Yue'er was thinking about not disturbing her grandmother and two aunts, and would quietly go out later!" Leng Rongyue said with a smile.
The old lady took Leng Rongyue's hand, walked to the table and sat down, "Grandma is just afraid that you will leave quietly, and that you won't have a good breakfast.
I was also worried that you guys weren't well prepared for your trip, so I had to come and check it out."
At this time, the eldest lady had already instructed the maids and servants to put breakfast on the table one by one.
"It's still too early, grandma and your two aunts can't even finish their breakfast!
Let’s not talk about those rules today.
Men of blue, green, blue, come, sit at the same table with your ladies and have breakfast quickly!
After breakfast, don't you have to go out again?" The old lady said, raising her hand to greet the people in blue.
“We dare not!” The people in green and purple clothes hurriedly stood in place and bowed.
"I've already said that today's situation is special.
You have to go out in a hurry, so just have breakfast with your lady.
Could it be that even after you enter the mountain together, you still have to abide by this order and rules?
That's a bit old-fashioned!" said the old lady with a kind smile.
Leng Rongyue heard this and smiled and called out to the people in green, "Just listen to my grandma. Sit down quickly. We'll finish eating and go out early."
When the men in blue heard Leng Rongyue say so, they bowed again and then walked carefully to the table and sat down.
The old lady stood up and sat on a chair beside her with the first and second ladies to drink tea, watching Leng Rongyue, Qingyi and the other three sitting at the round table in the room to have breakfast.
After breakfast, the people from the kitchen brought over the prepared dry food, dried meat, and some snacks.
If the weather is cold, food will not go bad even if it is kept for two or three days.
Besides, the old lady, the first lady and the second lady all knew that Leng Rongyue still had a mysterious space, so they didn't have to worry about food and drink.
The four people in blue packed up all the dry food and put them in their backpacks.
This backpack was given to them by Leng Rongyue last night.
It's the same soft canvas drawstring backpack, with neither brand logos nor any English letters on it. It's lightweight and has a large capacity, making it suitable for use here.
Each of the four people carried one, dry food, water bags and some daily necessities.
Leng Rongyue turned around and went into the inner room and took out a similar backpack.
"Miss, you don't have to carry it. What we carry is enough." said the one in blue.
Leng Rongyue smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. What I carry in here are things I need at any time. It's more convenient for me to carry them myself.
Besides, it’s not heavy.”
In fact, Leng Rongyue carried this backpack just to take things from the space as a cover at the critical moment.
