Chapter 44: Indifference to this
He Zhi responded calmly and calmly, Wei Lai could be regarded as saving a lot of trouble, at least on Zeng Yuanzhi's birthday, no one would come to her for trouble. Music + Literature + Novel Xs520.As for the aftermath, General Xiao Wei said, all the way away, why do you care so much?
That's right, early the next morning after Zeng Yuanzhi's birthday ended, Wei Lai and He Zhi left Yuzhou City. The reason is naturally "the schedule is tight and there can be no delay", but in fact, it is just that they don't want to deal with Zeng Yuwei, who is always looking for Wei Lai. After all, you have to go, and it's better to leave early than late.
Zeng Yuanzhi and Zeng Mohan kept it for a while, but naturally it had no effect, and the two of them couldn't force anything, so they had to send Wei Lai and He Zhi out of the city gate again. This time, Zeng Yuwei didn't follow, and only followed Zeng Yuanzhi to send the two out of the mansion, but her face was never better.
"Finally gone." Wei Lai, who was riding on horseback, glanced back at the farther and farther city walls of Yuzhou City, and after pretending to be silent for a few days, she finally couldn't help but sigh.
He Zhi sat in the carriage, still opened the curtain and enjoyed the scenery outside the car window from time to time. Only one or two meters apart, she naturally heard Wei Lai's exclamation in her ears, and couldn't help but be a little funny: "What's the matter, it's just to accompany me to celebrate my birthday, and when I come back from nine deaths on the battlefield on the frontier, General Xiao Wei, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, is actually afraid?" ”
Wei Lai smiled bitterly when she heard this, she glanced sideways at He Zhi who was smiling in the car window, shook her head slightly and said, "Where are you afraid to accompany you to celebrate your birthday, I'm just a little confused about the people of the Zeng family." Zeng Mohan is okay, that Zeng Yuwei...... I always felt that she was targeting me, but I didn't offend her, what did she do to me? ”
The answer to this question, in fact, I can't figure it out, but it doesn't matter if I don't understand, they and Zeng Yuwei are just a meeting in the water. In addition to making contact with the friendship between the Zeng family, Zeng Yuwei is actually just a passerby in He Zhi's eyes, and it is a question whether she will see each other again after saying goodbye today.
He Zhi didn't take Zeng Yuwei to heart, and it was rare to joke when she saw Wei Lai like this, so she quipped: "Maybe Miss Zeng has taken a fancy to you as General Wei, so she deliberately makes it difficult for you to make you remember her." ”
Wei Lai blinked his eyes, and when he heard this, he was really startled by He Zhi's words. But it was only for a moment, she also reacted, and then saw that the gentle smile on the corner of He Zhi's mouth had turned into a bad smile, and she had no choice but to smile helplessly: "Jinrui, you are really ...... Don't make fun of me. ”
She was not annoyed when she was joking, and Wei Lai's good temper made He Zhi unable to bear to tease her anymore, so she smiled faintly: "Okay, I won't make fun of you." As for what Zeng Yuwei thinks, why do you care? The left and right are just a meeting in Pingshui, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other again in the future, no matter what she does so much. ”
This is the truth, and Wei Lai thinks about it, so he completely left Zeng Yuwei behind.
Taking advantage of the good morning sunshine, the horses and horses gradually disappeared on the pipeline outside Yuzhou City.
*****************************************************************
In the end, it is late autumn, and it is a good weather for Wei Lai and He Zhi to leave Beijing in autumn, but after they go on the road, the weather is cold day by day. Fortunately, the preparation before the two of them traveled was sufficient, and they gradually changed out of their thin shirts on the way and put on warm autumn and winter clothes.
Since leaving Yuzhou City and starting again, the group has been walking for more than ten days in a row, and the road is peaceful, and nothing has happened. Wei Lai calculated the time and distance, but she had already been away from Beijing for more than half a month, and she had walked two-thirds of the way, which was slightly faster than she had expected.
Xi Qiu lifted the curtain and looked at the sky, and a cold wind instantly blew into the carriage along the gap, so cold that people unconsciously shrank their necks. Seeing that it was more than half of the hour, and there was not much time left before it got dark, Xi Qiu asked, "General Wei, it's not too early, can you rush to the next town to stay today?" ”
Wei Lai also subconsciously looked up at the sky, but in fact, whether he looked at it or not, the result remained the same: "I have to walk for more than half a day to the next town, and I will definitely not be able to walk today." ”
"That's it......" Xi Qiu was a little disappointed when he heard this. Although it is not uncommon for He Zhi to be able to rest in the town every day, and it is not uncommon to sleep in the wilderness, in such weather, the warm and soft bed of the inn is always more comfortable than falling asleep in the cold and hard carriage.
Wei Lai glanced sideways, and happened to see He Zhi in the carriage along the gap opened by Xi Qiu. She is very safe, since the weather has become colder and colder, she no longer lifts the curtain to look at the scenery, and reads in the carriage instead. I don't know what she thought when she left Beijing, and she actually brought a lot of books in her luggage.
As if sensing Wei Lai's gaze, He Zhi's gaze finally moved away from the book. She raised her head and looked at Wei Lai, but she only smiled faintly and said, "I'm going to trouble Wei Lai to find a place to settle down again." ”
Wei Lai coughed lightly rather uncomfortably, and looked away slightly: "It should be, you are too polite." I'll go to the front to look for a while to see if there are people on both sides of the official road who can stay overnight, if not, I can only grieve Jinrui. ”
He Zhi was about to nod, but he heard the coachman in front of him suddenly stop the horse in a hurry, so the words that came to his lips turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Wei Lai was driving a horse outside, and at this time, the horse under him also consciously stopped. Without waiting for the coachman to reply, she looked at it and knew what was going on, and immediately replied: "It seems that someone has fainted on the road ahead." As he spoke, he rode over to investigate.
The person who fainted in front of the carriage was slender, and it should be a woman in dress, but she was lying face down, but she couldn't see her appearance. But in any case, it is really too strange for such a girl to suddenly appear in this wild place, Wei Lai is a vigilant person, and he is even more vigilant at this time.
Riding the horse around the woman three times, Wei Lai called "girl" several times, but the other party did not give any response. So after thinking about it, she reached out and patted the horse's neck gently, and the horse, who had been with her for many years, also understood her master's thoughts very well, so she raised a hoof to rub the woman, the force was not too big or small, as if someone was shaking gently.
This time, the woman woke up quite quickly, but as soon as she opened her eyes, she was confronted by a grinning horse face, and she was instantly startled - her little face, which was still quite ruddy, turned white in an instant, and she crawled a long way with her hands and feet before she came back to her senses.
Xi Qiu, who was almost halfway out of the car window, happened to see this scene and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then he felt as if he was a little rude, and hurriedly covered his mouth and retracted back into the carriage, but he pulled He Zhi to chatter.
It was also Xi Qiu's chuckle that broke the atmosphere that had become a little stiff because of the farce just now.
The woman seemed to be a little embarrassed when she came back to her senses, she looked up at Wei Lai, and saw that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of getting off the horse to help, so she had to get up from the ground by herself. During this period, she fell down twice, and also turned her eyes to Wei Lai for help, but Wei Lai only rode on horseback and watched coldly from beginning to end. That look is rare indifference.
When the woman finally got up from the ground, Wei Lai also put away his quietly looking gaze. She didn't like this woman's delicate and timid appearance, and she didn't want to cause any trouble, so she opened her mouth lightly, and her tone was slightly condensed: "This girl, if you're okay, please let go to the side of the road, we still have to hurry." ”
probably didn't expect the person in front of her to be so indifferent, and the woman was stunned for a while when she heard this.
