I accidentally became the Eighth Lady in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 155 Watching the Stars on the Roof

Lao Ba said in a hoarse voice: "Yan'er..., why do you have to go overseas? Isn't it better to stay in the Qing Dynasty? If we go overseas, we are unfamiliar with the place and can't speak the language. It's easy for something to go wrong!"

Yunyan: "Yinsi..., I know you may not understand my thoughts, but this is my dream, this is what I have hoped for since I was a child. My greatest hope is that I can travel to every corner of the world in my lifetime."

Yunyan: "When I learned that the book recorded that there was more than just the Qing Dynasty in this world, I wanted to see how big this world is! I don't think the outside world is so good, I just want everyone to know that there is a beautiful country in the far east! Just like what is recorded in history books, Zheng He's voyages to the West, I want to see the journey Zheng He took!"

As Yunyan spoke, her eyes sparkled with stars. The sparkling light made Lao Ba unable to stop her. This was the first time he saw a different light in Yunyan's eyes!

The light enveloped the entire Yunyan, and the Yunyan, who had a somewhat cold personality, became lively. Although Yunyan sometimes smiled happily, she was not as happy as she was at this moment!

Lao Ba could only swallow all the bitterness in his heart. He didn't want Yunyan to wither like a flower. He hoped that she could always bloom on the branches! In the end, Lao Ba still couldn't bear to see Yunyan unhappy, although Lao Ba didn't think that Yunyan would not necessarily be unhappy if she was with him.

But Lao Ba knows that a person who has lost his dream, no matter how comfortable his life is, his life is still missing a point and is incomplete!

Lao Ba: "Then will you come back?"

Lao Ba’s words stunned Yunyan. She really wanted to tell her mother that she would come back, but she herself didn’t know if she could come back. She was not afraid of those people overseas bullying her, as she had the ability to protect herself. But what she was afraid of was natural disasters. The dangers at sea were unpredictable!

Over the years, she has researched a lot of information and learned that many of the ships that went overseas never returned. Even on those large fleets, many people could not return because life at sea was too difficult!

Yunyan: "Yinsi..., I don't know how to answer you. You should also know that your brother also does overseas business. He should have told you about it!"

Lao Ba: "Yan'er..., you knew it was so dangerous, why did you insist on going? Can you stay for me?"

Lao Ba finally asked again. Although he knew the answer, he still held a glimmer of hope, hoping that his dream would come true!

Yunyan: "Yinsi..., I'm sorry, I've been planning for a long time. I've even contacted the merchant caravan going out to sea. In three months, I will board the ship from Guangzhou!"

Lao Ba was speechless at this moment, he knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion and could not be changed. Lao Ba suppressed the sadness in his heart and raised the corners of his mouth with difficulty to reveal a forced smile!

Lao Ba: "Yan'er..., then go ahead! I can't keep you here, but don't feel like you owe me anything, you don't owe me anything!"

Yunyan felt extremely guilty. She had never regretted anything in her life except being with Lao Ba. She felt that if they had not been together in the beginning, perhaps Lao Ba would not be so sad!

It was all her fault that she coveted Lao Ba's warmth, which led to the current situation! Yun Yan wanted to say something with guilt? But before she opened her mouth, Lao Yi suddenly laughed and spoke.

Lao Ba: "In that case, can Yan'er stay with me for a while? There are still three months left, right?"

Yunyan looked at Lao Ba's usual smiling face, feeling mixed emotions in her heart. She suddenly walked up to him, hugged him, and said softly, "Okay...!"

Lao Ba wanted to incorporate Yun Yan into his bones and blood so that Yun Yan would never leave him again, but he still resisted the desire in his heart, suppressed all the bad emotions deep in his heart, and continued to smile.

Lao Ba gently pushed Yunyan away, smiled dotingly and said to Yunyan: "Yan'er..., didn't you eat enough just now? Come on, I'll take you to have breakfast!"

As soon as Lao Ba finished speaking, he continued to hold Yunyan's hand and walked towards another street!

Yunyan, who was walking beside Lao Ba, saw that Lao Ba had returned to normal, as if the sadness of Lao Ba just now was just her illusion!

Yunyan also put away the sadness in her heart and became like a little girl. She dragged Lao Ba around the county town and asked around to find out if there were any fun places nearby!

Yunyan and Lao Ba were playing so well that they almost neglected Kangxi and the others. Kangxi, who had been waiting for Lao Ba to negotiate, was a little confused and didn't understand what Lao Ba was trying to do!

The fourth brother seemed to have noticed something, but he said nothing.

Lao Jiu still had the mentality of a child. He felt that his starling was taken away by someone, so he was sulking and didn’t notice the storm beneath the calm!

The night before Kangxi and his companions were about to leave the county and go back, Yunyan sat on the roof, just like the night before Lao Ba returned to the capital!

Lao Ba carried the food box to the roof and said to Yunyan lovingly, "Yan'er..., why are you on the roof to look at the stars again? Can't you see them in the yard as well?"

Yunyan: "Because the roof is closer to the stars!"

When Lao Ba heard Yunyan's words, he couldn't help but laugh out loud!

Lao Ba: "Haha..., how close can this be?"

Yunyan: "That's always closer, isn't it?"

Lao Ba: "Yes, yes, our Yan'er is right!"

Yunyan: "Yinsi, what delicious food did you bring me again? Didn't I just finish my meal? Why did you bring me food again? I'm not a pig, how can you only feed me food?"

Lao Ba: "Because I think Yan'er seems to have lost a lot of weight. She should eat more good food to replenish her body. After today, I don't know when we will meet again. I may not even have the chance to feed Yan'er!"

Lao Ba seemed to not feel the pain of separation. He was still talking and laughing with Yunyan as usual, and there was no sign of sadness on his face!

Lao Ba took out snacks and cut fruits from the lunch box, held a plate in one hand, and placed it in front of Yunyan.

Lao Ba: "Yan'er..., try it and see how it tastes."

Yunyan took the lead and picked up a piece of dessert and started eating. While eating, she nodded and said, "Hmm..., delicious!"
