take the lamb to school

Chapter 26 Destiny

"……All right."

That's strange, since it was Bowen himself who said it first.

Yi Ling recalled the golden bows and arrows used by the sorcerers in Moxiang City to catch him. He closed his eyes and chanted a mantra silently, condensing the scattered particles into shape in his mind. The body of the bow, the string of the bow, and a sharp long arrow were also needed.

He opened his eyes full of hope. As he thought, there was indeed an identical set of bows and arrows floating in his hand. The golden arrows were on the bow strings, and they could be shot with a single pull.

only……

This is more like a child's toy.

Because it is too small.

Yi Ling sighed. Compared with other students, his talent was really poor.

I really don't know how Mr. Dean chose him.Of course he is very grateful to Mr. Dean, but as time goes by, he always feels ashamed of his trust.

In fact, in private, he secretly practiced the content of each class many times, but unfortunately, the effect was not very good.

He had no choice but to secretly look forward to the turnaround that Professor Dempsey said.

The turning point that can surpass talent.

Bowen had already noticed the movement on Yiling's side, after all, they were at the same table and were so close.He silently comforted Yi Ling with gentle eyes, forgetting that he was still angry.

Yi Ling smiled back: "I'm fine, Bowen."

He put the set of bows and arrows into his schoolbag, intending to put it away after returning to the dormitory, and to be companions with his "Little Richard", the whistle, and... the badge His Royal Highness gave him.

——If the bow and arrow have not disappeared by then.

*

Since that day, His Royal Highness has never troubled Yi Ling again.

Of course, perhaps it was because Yi Ling avoided him on his own initiative.

His Royal Highness could no longer see those passionate eyes when he went to school every day.He would never admit that, as he glanced over the group of goofy first graders, he was searching for some little bastard who had stolen his cat.

It's not clear why, since he met him in the palace, he has paid special attention to this person.

It seemed that something was secretly hooking his heart.

Why did Snowball leave after coming back?Did someone make it do this?

He was waiting, waiting for the next time Xueqiu returned to the palace.

"There is your letter, Ealing!"

The porter of the dormitory stopped Yi Ling and handed him a letter with a smile.

Someone actually wrote me a letter?I am not familiar with the place here, who could it be?

He took the letter: "Thank you."

Looking at the envelope, it reads:

"Mr. Ealing accepts,

Posted at Silver Star Hotel,

Marvin Lawson. "

It was Mr. Lawson who sent it to him!How are they father and daughter?Has it settled down now?

Yi Ling opened the envelope curiously and pulled out the letter paper.

……

"Excuse me, please send this letter to a student named Yiling at Red Thorn College within today." Mr. Lawson handed a letter to the postman in the city and gave him two silver coins as a tip.

"Okay!" The postman took it carefully and pushed the cart away.

"Are we really leaving? Father." Maureen said worriedly.

Mr. Lawson patted his daughter's hand: "I can't stay here any longer, my good daughter. We offended the passenger transportation group under the Monroe family, so it's better to leave quickly."

"Oh, if I knew it earlier, I wouldn't interfere. But it's better to start a small business than now."

Mu Lin was still a little reluctant: "But we don't compete with them for business now, and the few ships we bought have been resold. Why do they still care about us?"

Mr. Lawson said seriously: "Don't bet your life with other people's kindness, Mu Lin. I don't want that to happen again, we can't bear it."

"Okay, father, I understand." Mu Lin hugged her father's hand in frustration.

……

Yi Ling sat by the window, unfolded the letter, and read aloud softly.

"Dear little guest:

This is Marvin Lawson.Also, greetings from my daughter Maureen.

It's been a month since we parted, how are you doing at school?Mu Lin and I fled our hometown and came to Wangcheng. We originally planned to settle down, but things didn’t go as planned. I found out that most of the local business transactions were monopolized by the nobles, and there were few scattered merchants.My business was squeezed out at the very beginning and suffered heavy losses. After careful consideration, Mu Lin and I decided to leave Wangcheng and go to Dange, a small town not far from here.I think it suits us better there.

Two days later at ten o'clock in the morning, we will depart from Minsaru Port. If you are free, I hope we can meet for the last time. "

Mr. Lawson and Miss Lawson are leaving? !

Yi Ling was very surprised. He thought about it carefully, and in two days after the school holiday, he could just go see them off.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Lawson and his daughter set off.

Yiling calculated the time and arrived at Minsaru port half an hour earlier.

There is not much difference between here and when he came, it is still full of traffic, busy and noisy.

It didn't take much effort for Yiling to find the passenger ship to Dange, which was not too big because it was a short voyage.Not far from the entrance were two rows of benches, where the Lawson father and daughter were sitting, with a pile of luggage at their feet.

Seeing Yi Ling coming, they stood up excitedly and waved to him.

"Mr. Lawson! Mullin!"

Yi Ling walked over quickly, and Mu Lin smiled and said, "Just now I was betting with my father whether you will come today or not."

"So, who won the bet?" Yi Ling sat next to them, "As long as I am free, I will definitely come. And it just so happens that today is the school holiday."

"We all won the bet!" Mu Lin said, "Father said the same thing. He said that as long as Yiling is free, he will definitely come!"

Mr. Lawson's old face trembled, and the wrinkles deepened with a smile: "Ealing is such a person, look, I am right."

"Yes!" Yi Ling and Mu Lin smiled at each other.

Closer to home, Yi Ling asked: "Go to Dange this time, Mr. Lawson, are you planning to settle there?"

"That's right, we've decided to make it our second hometown," said Mr. Lawson.

Yiling asked again: "Can you tell me about Tanger, Mr. Lawson?"

He smiled embarrassedly: "I have been to too few places, so I am yearning for other places."

Mr. Lawson seemed to be lost in memory: "Danger...Danger is a very good place. That's where Mu Lin's mother and I met."

"Dange is a small town, about one-fifth the size of Minsaru. The climate is pleasant, not as cold as Moxiang, but it always rains. The whole town is built on water, so people have to plant flowers in the in the house."

"Mu Lin's mother is a beautiful girl. She propped a small boat and took me to buy flower seeds and taught me how to plant flowers. She is so brave. She is never afraid of wind and rain."

"After we fell in love, her parents didn't agree to marry her to me, so she secretly left with me."

"Later we had Mu Lin and lived happily ever after."

Yi Ling felt a little sad when she heard it. Since she was living happily, where did Mu Lin's mother go?It seemed that he had never seen the mistress of the house since the first time he met Mr. Lawson.

Mu Lin wiped the corners of her eyes: "Thanks to you, Yiling, my father seldom told me about my mother before. This time I was not willing to leave Mingsalu, but my father said that my grandmother might still be waiting for me in Dange Well, so we're going to find her right now."

Mu Lin quietly leaned into Yi Ling's ear: "When I see her, I will know what my mother looks like. My father said they are very similar, and I, I look like my father."

She was a little unconvinced when she said this, touched the long scar on her cheek, thought for a while and said, "Fortunately, I don't look like my mother."

***

Yi Ling watched Lawson and his daughter board the boat, and waited for the boat to leave the port before heading back.

The direction he was going was - Silver Star Hotel.

When he reached the gate, Yi Ling raised his head to take another look, made sure that he was right, and walked in.

The same young waiter came up to him: "It's you, Mr. Yi Ling."

Yi Ling nodded: "Hi, I'm here to pick up the things Miss Mullin left here."

"Please wait a moment," the young waiter bent slightly, walked around the stairs and entered the luggage room inside, but came back after a while, holding a square black box in his hand, "This is what Miss Mullin left. And a note."

Yi Ling took a look:

"Be careful, I leave it for you in case of emergency."

The handwriting is correct and delicate, and the note has a faint sweet fragrance, which is tangy to the nostrils.

The scene of Mu Lin saying goodbye to him was still in front of her eyes. She frowned and waved her hand and said loudly, "I have a gift for you, and it's in the Silver Star Hotel. You must go and get it!"

What a lovely girl.Yi Ling thought to herself.

He didn't open the box immediately, but tucked it up his sleeve, said good-bye to the young waiter politely, and left the inn.

Yiling found the station where he came, hired a carriage, paid the travel expenses and prepared to go back to school.

"Please step aside, everyone!"

Yi Ling followed the yelling and looked over, and a magnificent carriage swayed past him, startling him.

The coachman explained: "That's the Monroe family's carriage, sir. Let's go after he has passed this street."

The Monroe family?Isn't that Lambert's family?

Yi Ling asked, "How did you find out?"

"Look at the family emblem, sir. You don't seem to be a local. Minsalu is different from other places. There are too many nobles here, and we may cause trouble if we are not careful, so we will always keep the local nobles in mind."

"oh, I see."

What Yi Ling didn't know was that because of that accidental shock, someone had already noticed him.Fate is finally going its way.Or it can be said that it has depicted the past, present and future invisibly.
