53. Chapter 53
The sky was dark, and a cyan horse-drawn cart had already left Xizhimen and galloped out of the city.
The autumn wind is blowing, and it is already a little cold. The concentration of the car was not until he went out of the outer city gate and walked on the official road to stabilize his speed, not too fast and not too slow. The man who thought about hiring the car told him that the person in the car would not be able to adapt to the bumps on the road when he went out for the first time, so he was asked to walk steadily and not to make people upside down again.
That master is really a meticulous person, and he can't complain that he has a good appearance of being handsome and gentle, and even his speech is warm and steady, and he really responds to that sentence from the heart.
The person who was driving the car thought about it with or without a ride, and originally thought that Gu Ye was already a man who was born very well, but he didn't think that the young man in the car was simply blue. That face, that figure, he saw it for the first time, and his jaw was almost shocked, how did this person survive? is even more delicate and handsome than Jingli Kunhua Xiaodan.
The road surface was quite straight and gentle, and the person behind him moved slightly, and turned around and asked, "Uncle woke up?" ”
The people in the car didn't reply for a long time, but just hummed from their noses, soft and soft, and it sounded like Xiao Dan's shallow chant on the stage.
"It's good to wake up, and you can see the scenery when you wake up." The driver remembered that the master in front of the head got into the car without saying a word, and before they could say a few words to each other, they asked, "Uncle, your surname?" ”
The person in the car didn't answer at first, but after a while, he replied slowly, "The surname is Shen." ”
This time, the voice seemed to be deliberately quieter than before. What a handsome young man, but he doesn't seem to be in a good mood.
The car drove with a smile and kindly reminded, "It's bright, don't sleep in it, it's easy to get dizzy when you go back and sleep too much." Open the curtain and look outside, we are on the official road at this time, the road is not bad, it will not be too bumpy, just to take a look at the scenery. Is it the first time Shen Ye has gone out? ”
Naturally not, if you are serious, she has walked through half of Dawei. But at that time, she was hugging each other, and someone was waiting to take care of her, and the maiden who accompanied her could take up four or five cars. Where is it like now, sitting alone in a carriage that is barely clean and neat.
It's really unclear about the way forward, but there is nothing to think about.
She was embarrassed, "It's the first time I've left the capital." ”
"Is Shen Ye going to Baoding Mansion? Is it to go there to join relatives or to run errands? ”
Baoding Mansion is a place that must go west and by land, she actually doesn't know whether she should go north or south, and she doesn't know why he chose such a place to let herself settle. Maybe it's because you haven't left the Zhili Mansion, the land boundary is quite peaceful, and it's cheaper to hire a car or buy a horse.
But where do you go? She had no clue at the moment, thought about it, and suddenly asked, "How long does it take to go from Baoding to Changlu?" ”
The driver pondered for a moment, "You're going to Changlu, a good place!" Do you want to do salt business? From Baoding, it is only a half-day journey if it is fast. ”
Changlu has a salt farm, and there is a transfer salt envoy, and that salt envoy is her own uncle Sun Daosheng.
She sighed and didn't say anything more.
All the way to the west, the driver seemed to be afraid that she would be sick, and couldn't help but give advice many times, "If you are tired, just say, let's stop and move our muscles and bones, or come down for a walk, and take a look at the scenery outside." This season, the mountains are full of red leaves, and at a glance, the top is magnificent and beautiful. ”
She listened quietly, without much saying or responding. After driving for half a day, she didn't even lift the curtains. It's not that I don't want to see it, it's that I don't dare to watch it at all. At this time, wherever you go, it is nothing more than boundless falling trees. Leaving people to hate will inevitably add to the sorrow.
The so-called word sorrow, isn't it the autumn heart split in half.
"The autumn wind rises and the white clouds fly, the grass and trees are yellow and the geese return to the south. Lan has beautiful chrysanthemums and fragrant, and Huai Jiaren can't forget...... Joy and sorrow are ......"
The driver shook his head, he couldn't understand what she was singing, but he just felt that he was singing in such a low voice, which was very sad and very sad.
At noon, people are sleepy and tired, and they always have to be sharpened. There are some small restaurants on the side of the road with flying wine flags, which are not big, and the doors are already full of people. Everyone met in Pingshui, didn't ask about the past, just sat around eating, drinking and chatting.
The driver jumped out of the car and asked her to come down for lunch. She finally opened the curtain, glanced at it from a distance, frowned slightly, and ordered, "You go and eat, just buy me some dry food and come back." ”
As he spoke, he took out a white porcelain bowl from his baggage, and took out a spoon and chopsticks, all of which were small silver objects, which looked very precious.
The driver smashed his teeth, and he really ran into someone who was exquisite. I had no choice but to listen to her orders, but I secretly felt that something was wrong in my heart - such a squeamish son-in-law, he didn't say anything when he went on the road alone, and he couldn't get along at all. Now that the road is not very peaceful, it is difficult to guarantee that such a way will be targeted in the future.
As the saying goes, a person does not leak money, and if he leaks money, he will lose his life. The one who drove the car was also a real person, and while agreeing, he smiled at the waist, "Yo, you are about to put it away, don't let anyone with a heart see it." We should be cautious when we go out, it's not good if we don't get into trouble again. By the way, if you want something to eat, I'll buy it for you. ”
She thought about it, and in the wilderness, it is estimated that she will not take advantage of fresh vegetables and vegetables, "I want a steamed bun, white flour, and coarse grains, I won't eat it." If you have fresh chicken and duck meat, bring me some, I don't eat pork, beef and mutton here. ”
When he had finished speaking, he handed over the white porcelain bowl again. The driver reached out to pick it up, but she took it back, frowned and said, "You take the bottom of the bowl, don't touch the edge of the bowl, and don't put your fingers in." ”
The driver was stunned, and said yes. This lord seems to be a girl's temper, and he is really delicate.
Just as she was thinking about it, she took out a bag of things, opened the wrapped silk cloth, and revealed the whole envelope of silver! The one who was rushing to the car was startled, hurriedly stepped forward to block the car door, and lowered his voice to advise, "Master Shen, you can be careful, there are everyone walking on this official road, but you don't want to show your wealth so much." ”
"What are you afraid of?" The other party didn't raise his eyes, and he thought that it should be a slap in the face when he raised it at this moment, "I'm not afraid, less scorpions and scorpions sting." Who would dare to rob it? I'm worried that I can't fight! ”
Just you? The driver looked up and down, and he couldn't disagree anymore. There is no meat on the body, delicate and tender, and the little arms are as thin as wicker, and they must not be broken at once?
Realizing that he had never met such an unreliable master, the driver stuck out his tongue, carefully took the porcelain bowl and a silver ingot, and paced to the side of the road. I couldn't help but think that when I was full, I had to drive the car faster. Send people early, and pay for the car to be considered safe. If something happens to his life, it is really not worth paying for his carriage and horses.
The meal is also eaten quickly, and the picky young man thinks that the chicken is too old, so he doesn't eat it anymore after two bites. The best white-flour steamed buns were only half eaten by breaking them, and the rest was thrown along with the chicken to the wild cats waiting for food on the side of the road.
Hurry up and hurry, and finally arrived at Gaobeidian in the evening. The way to catch the car is quite familiar, and he took her to a local inn that is quite big to stay. The car stopped, she opened the curtain to reveal the gap, looked at it for a moment, and asked with some dissatisfaction, "This is the best storefront?" ”
"Not really, the best thing is to go to the city. We're going to be on the road tomorrow morning, so it's more convenient to stay here, you see......"
"I have a headache and can't live in a place like this. I may not be able to get up tomorrow to make a hurry, so you can take me to the city. ”
The driver swallowed and foamed, so he had to respond. When she arrived at the big inn, she paid her money, and she had a silver ingot in her hand, and it weighed five taels of weight. In a panic, the driver followed behind and was in a hurry, "Do you have any loose money?" This...... I don't have that much money to find you. ”
"I don't have any change when I go back and deduct it from the fare." threw down a sentence and picked up the small baggage he carried with him, but he didn't look back, and went to the store in great strides.
What is this called, the road is still wide, waiting to be found! Looking at Shen Xiaoye's back, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Shen Huan didn't bring a hat, dressed in moon-white brocade, entered the inn to take a look, and saw that the decoration was satisfactory, so he went straight to the counter, dropped the silver and said that he wanted an upper room.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said yes, and asked the man to take someone upstairs, and the two immediately walked up the stairs.
Shen Huan didn't squint, from beginning to end, he didn't look at the crowd eating and drinking in the hall.
But everyone else saw her, and as soon as she entered the door and stood inside the threshold, everyone who saw her held their breath almost instantly.
Slender and tall, white skin and tender meat, a gorgeous and handsome and unparalleled! This is a small place suddenly a stunner.
The people next to the hall were okay, and two men in blue shorts had already looked at each other. After exchanging glances, a meaningful snicker appeared on each of their faces.
