Chapter 256: Leaving Beijing
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for Lu Shuo to leave Beijing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Weizhou is located in the northwest of Beijing, all the way is dry land, and there is no waterway to pass, so Lu Shuo and others had to choose to take a carriage.
Although this is the case, because Weizhou is not far from Jingshi, the carriage is faster, and it only takes three days to arrive, which is not too hard.
On this day, Lu Shuo woke up early.
He and Lu Yun and his wife went to Songhe Hall to accompany Luo Shi for breakfast, and just put down the dishes and chopsticks, Yuan's mother came to report outside, saying that all the luggage had been taken care of, and the time had come, and he could get ready to get on the car and leave.
When Luo and Yuan heard this, they immediately cried into tears.
The two of them were supported by their subordinates and sent them to the Yimen, holding Lu Shuo's hand and telling him thousands of times, I couldn't wait to leave him behind.
“… When you get there, you must send a letter of peace to your home first..."
“… You must eat well and dress well every day, and you must not wronged yourself..."
“… If you encounter any difficulties, tell your grandfather directly, but don't endure everything by yourself..."
And so forth and so on.
The girls around also cried in a low voice.
Lu Shuo didn't feel much at first, seeing them like this, they were infected, and his nose was a little sour, his secretly surging emotions, patiently comforted them, and every time the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said a word, he had to nod and say "I know", so as to calm their hearts.
This conversation lasted for a long time, but Lu Yun saw that the time was up, and he couldn't delay it anymore, so he opened his mouth to persuade him.
“… When the time comes, let's let Brother Shuo set off as soon as possible, so as not to be delayed, and we have to rush for an extra night......"
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard this, they were still reluctant in their hearts, but they also knew that Lu Yun often traveled between Beijing and Weizhou in his early years, and he knew the distance very well.
Yuan Shi helped Luo Shi and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, the coachman over there led the carriage over, Lu Shuo knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Luo Shi, and then turned around and got into the carriage without hesitation.
The carriage slowly headed out.
The curtain at the back was lowered, covering the scenery outside, and also blocking the reluctant crying of Yuan and the others behind.
……
The carriage traveled steadily and quickly, and by noon on the third day, Lu Shuo and his party had arrived in Weizhou.
The car slowly stopped in front of a tea shed.
The white steward walked over from behind and said to Lu Shuo: "Young master, we have entered Weizhou, according to the previous speed, we can reach Taoshan Academy in about two hours, the time is not in a hurry, the old slave sees that there is a tea shed in front, you have been sitting in the car for a long time, you might as well come down and rest......"
Lu Shuo was indeed sitting with some numb legs, and when he heard what the white steward said, he nodded, and got off the car with Qingquan Xiuzhu.
The two coachmen parked the carriage by the side of the road, and the white steward walked to the carport in three steps and two steps, and ordered a few bowls of hot tea.
Lu Shuo stood in place and looked around slightly.
I see that half of this place is surrounded by green mountains, the terrain is slightly closed, and the tea shed is built at the foot of the mountain, which looks very old, and it should be some years.
There are several sets of tables and chairs under the shed, and there are a few pedestrians sitting scattered with their backs to him, looking at the costumes, some of them come here to rest temporarily, but most of them are some passing merchants and pedestrians.
Lu Shuo looked at it for a while, and the white steward had already ordered the tea and beckoned Lu Shuo and the others to come over.
The tea is slightly brown, a little bitter to drink, barely able to enter the mouth, walking outside, naturally not to pay much attention.
Lu Shuo drank a few sips, and Changfeng over there had already taken out a food box from the carriage, which contained some dry food bought on the road.
"Beef, quiches, belly soup~fragrant and hot beef, quiches, belly soup~"
Several people were slowly chewing the dry food in their hands when they heard a shouting from far and near.
The voice got closer and closer, and soon Lu Shuo saw his true face clearly, it was a merchant in short brown.
Lu Shuo couldn't help but feel a little strange.
It is understandable to build a tea shed here, people come and go here, and building a tea shed is not only convenient for pedestrians, but also can bring some profits to the owner of the tea shed, which is indispensable on this avenue.
But the sudden appearance of this merchant is really a bit strange.
Lu Shuo looked at his direction, it was from the direction they had just come, but they had traveled all the way, and the section in front was almost deserted, where did this merchant come from?
Thinking like this, Lu Shuo turned his head to look at the tea shopkeeper, and saw that compared to before, his face was flushed at this time, and his face was a little ugly.
Lu Shuo's brows furrowed.
This tea shed only deals in tea and some dry food business, and the things that the merchant buys do not conflict with him, why is his face so embarrassed?
Could it be ......
"This little brother, how do you sell this belly soup? But it's still hot?"
As soon as the merchant sat down, a man who looked like a little guy stepped forward and asked with a smile.
Lu Shuo looked over and saw that it was the entourage of a scholar from before.
"Young Master. ”
At this time, Qingquan turned his head to look at Lu Yun and said, "Do you want to buy some beef and belly soup, this cake is really hard to swallow......
Before Lu Shuo could speak, the white steward directly reprimanded him in a low voice: "Pick and choose, what are so many things?
Uncle Lu glanced up at the white steward.
Along the way, the white steward didn't stop Qingquan from buying dry food or anything like that, and now that he was acting like this, could it be that he also had suspicions?
Qingquan made the white steward stunned, and then looked at Lu Shuo who looked pensive and speechless, and couldn't help but shrink his head, not daring to say more.
"Young master, the old slave looked at the merchant a little strangely, like an immortal jumping......"
The white steward no longer cared about Qingquan, and whispered to Lu Shuo.
Lu Shuo nodded slightly, "I also have this guess." ”
Perhaps, I don't know this merchant alone.
"Looking at the shopkeeper's appearance of daring to be angry and not daring to speak, it seems quite taboo, it can be seen that there are a lot of them, although we have brought four guards, but whether we can resist it is uncertain...... According to the old slave, let's just ignore it and wait and see what happens!"
Hearing this, Lu Shuo nodded slightly, but his eyes glanced at the merchant.
The merchant had already smiled and brought the little guy a belly soup, cut off a small piece of beef, and handed it to the little guy.
The little servant happily returned to the scholar with his things.
When the scholar and the servant ran out of meat and soup, a few merchant-like people sitting in the tea shed couldn't help it, and their eyes began to stare directly at the things that the merchant was carrying.
But no one moved.
Everyone walks outside all the year round, and they haven't seen any scams, and it's not for nothing that the first bowl of normal food and the second bowl hide drugs.
But apparently not all of them are so experienced.
Soon another servant walked in the direction of the merchant.
It's a scholar's little guy again.
Lu Shuo shook his head secretly, and was thinking about whether to open his mouth to remind, when he suddenly heard a sound of surprise.
"Brother Zhang—"
