Chapter 93: The Coachman
In fact, Jin Chu'er was originally a smart and cheerful girl, but after she was wrongfully committed suicide, her soul's temperament was affected to a certain extent and became a little extreme. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, Baoyu met her in time, and because she was ashamed, she always cared for her with all kinds of gentleness, so that her soul was constantly purified and did not fall into the devil's way.
Baoyu saw Jin Chu'er holding the "glazed treasure pestle", looked left and left, like a child who had just gotten a favorite toy, and couldn't put it down, so he smiled and said: "Okay, it's all yours, let's take a look in the future, let's go, put it away..."
Jin Chu'er also smiled, and after a little concentration, the treasure pestle disappeared from her hand, thinking that it had been put into the dantian.
At this time, Jing Lan and Jing Zhu sisters came to the door with their small packages on their backs, and Jing Lan shouted: "Second master, okay..."
Baoyu opened the door, smiled and said, "I have nothing to clean up, I have been waiting for the two of you..."
Baoyu found that the two sisters had been re-groomed and put on a set of clean clothes, but this set of clothes was obviously much older, and they were a little white.
The people of this world are very strange, it seems that there is no too obvious boundary between "Buddha and Tao", especially Jinglan, Jingzhu and Miaoyu, who are "little nuns" who lead hair and practice, at first glance, the clothes they wear are not much different from "Little Daogu", but the decoration is slightly different.
Baoyu stared at the two little sisters, thinking, it seems that I have to buy them a few good clothes, as the saying goes, "people are in clothes, horses are in the saddle", although the two little girls are rare beauties, and they look good in anything, but after all, in this society, there are still many people who look down on people.
Besides, girls, there are a few people who don't like beautiful clothes, youth is fleeting, and if you don't dress up well, you will leave a lot of regrets in the future.
Baoyu was thinking about these things in her heart, but the two little sisters were a little misunderstood, their faces showed a touch of shyness, Jinglan's beautiful eyes flowed, and she smiled coquettishly: "Second master, what are you looking at, is there ash on the slave's face..."
Baoyu came back to his senses and knew that he had lost his mind again, so he said a little embarrassed: "That... I see that your clothes are old, and I want to buy you a few new ones in a while..."
Jinglan continued to joke: "Second master, are you afraid that we will dress like this and embarrass you..."
Baoyu has regained his relaxation, so he also quipped: "You can think as much as you like, anyway, in a word, do you want beautiful clothes, if you don't want it, I'll just take Jingzhu to buy it..."
Jingzhu pursed her lips, looked at Baoyu, and then turned her head to stare at her senior sister, her eyes were full of anticipation, as if to say, "Senior sister, let's be better..."
Jinglan touched Jingzhu's head and said, "Okay, we are already the second master's people, a slave, how to dress up, it's not all up to the master's wishes..."
Baoyu was rarely in a good mood, so she continued to joke: "Jingzhu, your senior sister loves to be a slave, let her be a good one, don't you want to follow her, my brother will go back and buy you the best clothes, and dress you up as a little princess..."
Jingzhu nodded hurriedly, smiled sweetly and said, "Okay..."
Jinglan immediately patted Jingzhu's head, and scolded with a smile in her mouth: "Stinky girl, it's really a big girl." ”
"Senior sister..."Jingzhu looked coquettish, which made Jinglan lose her temper immediately, and Baoyu also loved her even more.
The three of them talked and laughed, and quickly walked back to the hall on the first floor, no, to be exact, it should be four people, because Jin Chu'er also kept walking beside Baoyu, but Jinglan and Jingzhu couldn't see it at all.
Moreover, Jin Chu'er had a little ambiguous joke about the three of them, and seemed to have a lot of opinions, and kept glaring at Baoyu, but Baoyu instinctively chose to ignore it, "men" can't always be swayed by a "female ghost".
The hall returned to normal order, people in and out of the stream of people in and out, the old Zhao in the account room commanded a few people, there was a lot of busy, saw Baoyu coming, and said: "Son, the carriage is ready, just stop at the gate, our big shopkeeper has something to do,
I've specifically explained that if you have any other requirements, just tell me..."
Baoyu arched his hand and smiled: "No, thank you, farewell..."
Baoyu said as she walked out of the gate with Jinglan and Jingzhu, and sure enough, as soon as she got out of the gate, she saw a luxuriously decorated carriage parked on the side of the street, and a small man with a long whip in his hand was standing next to him.
When the little guy saw Baoyu coming out, he immediately ran over and said timidly: "Childe, the big shopkeeper wants me to help you catch the car..."
Baoyu had already recognized that this little guy was the young man who brought him food in the morning, so he said, "It's you, don't be afraid of us..."
The young man lowered his head and said, "Don't dare, I was talking too much in the morning and causing trouble for my son, but I'm not the one who informed... The big shopkeeper asked me to make a mistake and come to catch a car with you, and when you are satisfied, I can stay..."
Baoyu looked at this young man who was a little thin, and suddenly felt compassion, and said: "No need, I can drive by myself, and tell your big shopkeeper that I have forgiven you, and I will learn a lesson in the future, curiosity, sometimes it can really kill people..."
The young man nodded quickly and sincerely, but he had no intention of leaving, and the expression on his face was about to cry.
Baoyu instantly figured out the reason for this, presumably because he was afraid that he would not be able to explain to Jin Wu and would be unemployed, so he said: "Okay, then you can give us a ride, what is your name?" ”
The young man's expression immediately relaxed, and there was a look of gratitude in his eyes, and he said: "Childe, my name is Dong Xiaoyong, you can call me Xiaoxiao, they all call me that... You and your sisters should hurry up and get in the car, I promise to drive the car for you..."
"Xiaoxiao..."Baoyu's eyes were full of black lines, and she felt that it was better to forget it, don't destroy the image of a certain beauty, it would be better to call him "Xiaoyong".
Baoyu helped Jinglan and Jingzhu into the car, but she didn't go in, but sat in the front of the car like the young man.
The young man's face was a little puzzled: "Childe, it's windy outside, you better sit inside..."
Baoyu said kindly: "The place we go to will be far away, we can't keep bothering you, don't you have to come back to work... I'll learn from you first, and when I do, I'll drive it myself..."
The young man nodded in understanding, waved the horsewhip lightly in his hand and said, "Childe sit down, drive..."
The carriage started very smoothly, and after walking for a while, Baoyu found that Dong Xiaoyong's driving skills were very skilled, so he asked: "Xiaoyong, your driving skills are so good, you used to be a coachman..."
Dong Xiaoyong nodded and replied respectfully: "My father is an old coachman, who transports goods outside all the year round, I have been following him everywhere since I was a child, and I naturally learned to drive, you want to learn, I will teach you now..."
Baoyu joked: "I can't see it, you are an old man at a young age, so why do you have to go to the inn to be a buddy, isn't it good to be a coachman?" ”
Dong Xiaoyong shook his head and said: "It's not good, don't talk about the hard work, my father said that sometimes I will meet evil ghosts, and he doesn't want me to do this business again, so he found a relationship and sent me to the 'Jinfu Inn', hoping that one day, I can become a celebrity chef..."
As soon as Baoyu heard this, he laughed in his heart, no wonder this guy is so sensitive to ghosts, what kind of "father" is this, if you want to change careers, you can say it clearly, and you still talk about "ghosts", isn't this a trick to play with children?
Baoyu was originally going to go out of the north gate and go to Jinkui's house along the old road of "Green Willow Town", but it was actually a long detour like that, and now seeing that Dong Xiaoyong has good driving skills and has been to many places, I asked for his opinion.
Dong Xiaoyong said briskly: "Childe, I probably know the place you said, let's go through the city directly, just go out from the West Gate, you can rest assured, look at me..."
So, Dong Xiaoyong drove the carriage and began to walk briskly through the streets of Jinling City, this technique, Baoyu was amazed, and began to ask him for advice sincerely.
Dong Xiaoyong also gave Baoyu an answer very enthusiastically, and when there were few people, he also asked him to operate the horse himself, and soon Baoyu began to become proficient.
Who knows, as soon as Baoyu drove around a corner, a person rode a tall horse and galloped towards him, which scared Baoyu into a little hurried for a while.
