Chapter 204: The Upper Quarter (5)
After lunch, several of them packed their bags and got into the car, Yan Song looked through the window, still looking at the group of people sitting in the Huawu Inn sorting out their bags. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Really, is it really going to give up like this? Why is there so much unwillingness in his heart, and he clearly wants to convince Chenyue Vanilla about it, but why does his attitude immediately become so resolute.
"Miss, let's go!?" Ah Qiu leaned his head and held the reins in his hand, and then heard a long horse call, and the carriage began to move, watching the shadow of the Flower Mist Inn in the window frame slowly retreat. She didn't feel good in her heart, she was doing something with great interest, but in the end she was disappointed, what did she do wrong.
Xu Manxiu comforted on the side, "How can anyone succeed after trying once, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, if you want to be depressed like this again, don't blame me for looking down on you!"
"I'm not depressed...... she lowered her head slightly, leaned her chin against the window frame, and said lightly, "I'm wondering if there is a way for them to go to the five villages." ā
"Aren't you ready to give up?" Xu Manxiu flattened the corners of his mouth, and then there was a look of helplessness, "This carriage has already driven out of Huacheng, is it possible that you still want to go back and continue to persuade him?" Even if you are willing to go back and catch up, those people, especially the second young master, will never pay attention to you." ā
Yan Song naturally understood Xu Manxiu's reasoning, but before they left the city, there must be other ways for them to come to the five villages. She looked out the window at the fork in the road.
"Wait!stop!" Yan Song was about to jump off the carriage, Ah Qiu immediately pulled the reins, and the carriage let out another long roar, and then skimmed the horse's head and ate the grass on the side, and it was quiet for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Xu Manxiu's hat fell off in half, and he slowly walked down from the carriage while straightening it, "Did you hit something?" He carefully observed the surroundings of the carriage, and did not find anything unusual, and looked at Ah Qiu on the side.
Ah Qiu shook his hand very innocently, "It's not me, it's the young lady who asked me to stop!" Indeed, it was Yan Song who suddenly shouted and then stopped the car, and Ah Qiu just frowned, not knowing what was going on, and looked at the young lady who was thinking about something.
"Look at these two paths. Yan Song was standing in front of the fork in the road at this time, "One is to the three villages, and this one is to the five villages." ā
"Miss, we know this, and Ah Qiu is a person from Jiangnan, so he won't go the wrong way. Ah Dong was very impatient, pulled Yan Song's sleeve and said, "I think we should hurry up and get in the car, don't stay here." ā
"You don't want to ......" Xu Manxiu looked at these two roads, and probably guessed what Yan Song meant, "The second young man of the Chen family is not an easy person to fool, he can't take the wrong road, your method is not feasible at all." ā
"There are no absolutes in everything. Yan Song walked to the wooden sign on the side of the road, pulled it up vigorously, and then walked to another intersection and inserted it, "Since we can't fool him, let him choose whether to come or not." ā
"What does this mean? Let him choose for himself, even if you take this sign pointing to Sancun on this road, the second young man of the Chen family will still see through it at a glance. ā
"It's to let him see through it at a glance. Yan Song smiled, "I can see that he is quite interested in vanilla, but for some reason, his attitude has become so resolute, if he is given another chance, maybe he would rather take this wrong path." ā
"How can someone keep walking on the wrong path knowing that it is the wrong one?" Xu Manxiu couldn't believe it, and then shook his head and hugged his arms.
"Then please ask Xu Gongzi to set up another sign, which says Jiangnan Five Villages. She walked over to the spot and said, "Put it right here." ā
"You mean......" Xu Manxiu frowned, "Swap the signboards of the five villages and the three villages, this, can this work?"
Yan Song said with a shallow smile, "Although it is not 100%, it is better to try than to sit still." Although Xu Manxiu still said that this method would not work, he still set up a new sign there according to Yan Song's meaning, which said the five villages in the south of the Yangtze River, which was very bold and handwritten.
But in this case, is it really okay? Xu Manxiu couldn't help but worry about how Yan Song would face the people who had trusted her before when she went back? Sure enough, what she needed to worry about the most was that the people in the five villages in the south of the Yangtze River had all consciously gathered under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village one by one to wait for the news of their return.
I don't know who saw the carriage first, and shouted, "Miss Yan is back! Everyone come and see! Miss Yan is back!" Everyone immediately ran over when they heard the sound, and one by one they still held the hoes and farm tools in their hands, and hurriedly came over to join in the fun.
Most of them stretched their necks and probed at the situation behind them, and someone suddenly sighed, "It seems that Miss Yan has failed, and she didn't follow the caravan." ā
"It's not a big talk! You believe such a little girl! I think she's clearly trying to trick us!" said an old man, and then picked up the farm tools beside him and prepared to leave.
The old woman on the side said with a displeased face, "I thought it was true! I finally harvested all the crops in my family at such an old age, who would have thought that this girl would bluff us!"
"Big guy, didn't you notice, as soon as this woman came, she made a mess of our lives. One moment they said that they were going to build a dam, and they destroyed a lot of crops, and then they made some caravans, and today, we must drive this woman out of the five villages!
"Yes, yes, yes, we can't stay any longer!" Most of the villagers were inspired by the momentum, picked up the guys next to them, and ran in the direction of the carriage, while the rest looked at each other and did not come forward to say anything good for Yan Song.
As soon as the carriage stopped at the entrance of the village, then I don't know whose hoe took off its hand and slashed on the frame of the carriage, the horse was startled and raised its front hooves, and these people almost fell on their backs, but fortunately, it was Aqiu who drove it, and he was very skilled. The two of them got out of the carriage and probably knew what was going on.
"Whoever lost the hoe is dead!" Ah Dong said first, and then looked at the young lady behind him and frowned, the surrounding villagers all showed fierce colors, and immediately weakened their momentum, and took a few steps back.
"I lost it!" said the farmer, who had accidentally let it go, and pulled the hoe out of the wooden frame, "Miss Yan, I don't know if you have brought your so-called caravan? ā
"That is, or rather, you are lying to us at all, trying to coax us!" everyone turned their heads to each other, and then all eyes fell on her alone. She didn't know what to say, she originally wanted to persuade the caravan to come to the five villages, so that the five villages could live a better life in a place that was not rich, but now is it considered a good intention to do a bad thing?
She stepped forward slowly and said, "Indeed...... I didn't get the caravan, really, I'm sorry everyone. ā
"Just say sorry!" the farmer raised the hoe in his hand and said indignantly, "Do you know that you have tossed and harvested a lot of ripe crops in the field, so how will we live in the future!"
"Wait!" the hoe was snatched away by Xu Manxiu, "How do I remember, when this girl said that she wanted to invite a caravan, you were not interested in walking away." Why is it that when she comes back now, she will collect debts from her? ā
The farmer raised the corners of his eyebrows, and then said lightly, "Xu Xiucai can't say that, after all, it was Miss Yan who said that she wanted to invite the caravan, although we didn't listen carefully, but we also believe that the girl will harvest the family's crops." Now, why can't you come to collect debts?"
"You!" Xu Manxiu didn't know what to say, these people were originally uninterested, but now they have to push such things onto Yan Song. Although he couldn't get used to Yan Song's girl who didn't know the height of the sky, he could still tell which was right and which was not.
