020: Homecoming 2
The person not far away, dressed in black, looked like five big and three thick, but he also looked like those thugs in Sifangzhai. It's just the person who scolds, but it doesn't seem to be Jiuniang and Hu Die's side, the two of them glanced at each other, didn't dare to stay longer, and slipped over silently. Slowly left along the alley, until she reached the busiest street, Jiu Niang still felt a little frightened.
Hu Die stretched out his hand to hold Jiu Niang's hand, and said in a low voice: "Let's just go directly to the South City Gate according to what Mr. Gu said, and they should be properly arranged to come to Fusang." ”
Jiuniang nodded and said, "Okay." ”
The two of them were dressed very plainly, but there was nothing outstanding, and there were a few people in Yecheng who glanced at them a few times, but most of them were just people who were more simple than them.
All the way to the south city gate, Jiu Niang glanced up, and couldn't help but sigh strangely.
"What's wrong?" Hu Die frowned and asked.
Jiuniang pulled Hu Die's hand: "It's nothing, it's just that Senior Brother is still standing here, I think Senior Brother should follow Mo Nansheng around the city." ”
As he spoke, Fusang had already seen them, and was about to raise his hand to say hello, but he seemed to think of something again, and just walked over with his head down.
Fusang stuffed a burden into Jiuniang's arms and said, "Be careful." And he hurried away.
Jiuniang and Hu Die went out of the city all the time, and only then did they open the burden in their arms and see that it was just two clothes and a bag of broken silver.
Hu Die smiled: "Now I know that you don't lack silver for the fragrance of wine, look at what you carry on your body and in your arms." I'm not worried that the steward will chase after me now, but if there is a robbery, it must be for the money on you. ”
"Alright, let's go, we can get to Luhua Town before dark." Jiu Niang glared at Hu Die.
Hu Die nodded, but reached out and grabbed Jiuniang: "Let's move forward." After stepping out of the scope of Yecheng, he went to stop the car. ”
Jiuniang nodded, and the two of them walked all the way out of Yecheng, only to hire an ox cart at a small ground station, and the man asked for two taels of silver.
Hu Die frowned: "You are trying to rob money." ”
"If you don't like it, don't sit down, and I didn't ask you." The ox cart driver is also a tough one.
Jiuniang pulled Hu Die: "Forget it, let's just not sit." ”
Hu Die frowned: "But ......" Seeing Jiu Niang's eyes as if she were looking at her, Hu Die suddenly shut up.
Jiuniang continued: "It's not that we are short of two taels of silver, but we think that we can buy two taels of silver." This little brother, do you think that we don't understand anything, so we can just talk to us? Hehe, I'm sorry. ”
The cattle driver still looked at Jiuniang and Hu Die unhurriedly. He shook his head slightly: "If you don't have to go a long way, you don't need to hire a car, but since you have come to hire a car, it must be a non-employable ......."
"Who told you we have to hire it!" Hu Die lost his temper all of a sudden, and dragged Jiu Niang forward, "I've never seen such a person, and I said that we have to hire it?" I'm not going to hire it today. ”
Jiuniang frowned, looked at the sky, and grabbed Hu Die, "Otherwise, it will be more expensive." Anyway, Master gave me the money. You see......"
"Girl, stay down, don't go so fast, this price doesn't mean that it's so dead, is it? We can still discuss it again. But the coachman was also anxious.
It's been this hour, and I don't think anyone will hire a car anymore. There is really no one, if Hu Die and Jiuniang really leave, I am afraid that he will come out in vain today.
Hu Die glanced at the coachman coldly, and stretched out a finger: "One or two." ”
"Deal." A flash of ecstasy flashed across the driver's face.
Jiu Niang shook her head helplessly. Or...... That's enough for the family to eat for half a year. Hu Die really hasn't come out before, and he doesn't know much about the market, but Hu Die has already said a thing or two. It's not good to press down on your own.
When the two of them got into the ox cart, Hu Die began to yawn.
Jiuniang frowned: "You won't be motion sickness, right?" ”
"No, I'm just sleepy. It's about a conditioned reflex. Hu Die smiled.
Jiu Niang was surprised: "Can this still be conditioned?" ”
Hu Die smiled embarrassedly: "When I went from Xiahe Village to Yecheng, I was drugged many times along the way, except for sleeping. As soon as I sit in this car now, I feel like I want to sleep. ”
Jiuniang was stunned for a moment, reached out to hold Hu Die's hand, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry." ”
"What are you sorry for me? It's just that people's hearts are not ancient. Hu Die pushed Jiu Niang, didn't say anything, just leaned his head on the side of the wheel.
At night, when they arrived in Luhua Town, Jiuniang and Hu Die casually found an inn to stay, asked for dinner, and went to sleep after eating.
When I went upstairs, I happened to hear someone talking about the three dogs.
What to say, "I feel amazing when I have been to the imperial capital, what ability can I gamble, it is really difficult for his wife to serve this thing every day." ”
"So what, his mother's family is not much better! When their family killed their daughter, how many people were spreading those rumors, what happened to Zuihou? The girl didn't die, and when she entered Yecheng and developed, the little brother licked his face and begged the sister. What do you say it's all about! ”
Jiu Niang raised her eyebrows, turned around and walked downstairs.
Hu Die frowned, wanting to hold Jiu Niang, but he was worried that Jiu Niang would expose something, so he could only frown and hurriedly chased after him.
Jiu Niang stood at the counter and smiled at the man and woman who had spoken before: "I want to ask you about something." ”
"What do you need?" The man's junior asked.
Jiu Niang smiled: "What you said earlier was about Xiahe Village?" ”
Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the woman beside him: "Sister......"
"Where did the girl come from?" The woman who called her sister looked much sharper.
Jiu Niang smiled: "Yecheng." ”
"How can you tell the truth?" Hu Die frowned.
Jiuniang spread her hands: "This shopkeeper's eyesight is excellent, I'm afraid that if we talk nonsense, people can see it, so it's better to be honest with each other." ”
The female shopkeeper smiled: "It turned out that we chewed the root of our tongue and was heard by the master's family." Why did the girl come back? In the boiling things that were rumored back then, didn't the girl break off the relationship with that family? ”
"I'm broken, but they keep going, and that won't work." Jiu Niang smiled, "This sister knows what the situation is in Xiahe Village now. Fang just listened to his sister's words, and seemed to be very familiar with that side. ”
"Well, that's what I heard, too. Let's open an inn, isn't it that everyone has visitors from all over the world? said that it was the brother-in-law and brother-in-law, I don't know what I did in Yecheng, although I can't say that I have a lot of money when I come back, but that outfit also makes many people red-eyed. The female shopkeeper paused here when she said this, glanced at Jiuniang and smiled again, "Naturally, this is incomparable to you, but this brother-in-law has no filial piety to his father-in-law at all, and he has all gone to squander it." It's not. There was a quarrel, and this quarrel seemed to involve a lot of things, and I don't know much about these. You're leaving tomorrow, aren't you? I'll find you a car tomorrow, and you'll hurry up, how about it? ”
"Okay." Jiuniang smiled and nodded, took out a silver leaf from her arms and stuffed it into the hand of the female shopkeeper.
The female shopkeeper smiled, reached out and touched it, and bit it with her teeth: "The imperial capital is from Yecheng." It's the difference between drinking our small doors. ”
Jiuniang didn't say anything, turned around and went upstairs to the room.
Hu Die sighed: "You too...... We can't find out where to inquire about what she said, and you have to stuff the silver with it. ”
Jiuniang patted Hu Die. smiled: "You don't come out often, these are just to plug that woman's mouth, and we are a little safer." Besides. Isn't the money earned for spending? ”
Hu Die said that he couldn't say that he couldn't Jiuniang, so he turned over and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, the shopkeeper knocked on the door. He said that he had found the carriage and prepared breakfast for them.
When Jiu Niang asked the coachman how many taels of silver he wanted, the female shopkeeper waved her hand: "Hey, isn't the girl looking down on us when she says this, the businessman's heavy profit is not bad, but it's just the employment money of a carriage, and if you ask again, isn't this falling into the eyes of money?" ”
Jiuniang smiled, thanked the female shopkeeper, and then got into the carriage with Hu Die.
Unlike the day before, Hu Die, who got into the carriage, simply didn't say a word.
I think it's still close to home.
After all, Hu Die has never returned since he left Xiahe Village.
Thinking of this, Jiu Niang suddenly frowned, remembering what the three dogs said when they were in Fenghualou that day.
and the Cao family also knows where Hu Die is now, what he is doing for a living, and now when he goes back, he doesn't know what those people will do......
"Hua'er, I've thought about all these things, you don't have to be embarrassed." Hu Die suddenly opened his mouth and smiled, "I came back just to go to my mother's grave, and then I want to see what happened to Sangouzi and Meng Youcai, and I have to have a beginning and an end, right?" ”
Jiuniang sighed: "The mouth of the Cao family and the three dogs, I don't know ......"
"It's all here, you can't let me go back, can you? Don't talk about me, even Gu Huacheng can eat me. Hu Die glared at Jiu Niang.
The coachman outside the carriage heard it, and asked in a loud voice: "The two of you are talking about Gu Huacheng, but Gu Huacheng, the first winemaker in our Dayue Kingdom?" Do you know him? ”
Hu Die smiled, but relieved a little sourness in his heart, and lifted the curtain to talk to the coachman: "Recognize, why, the little brother also knows Gu Huacheng?" ”
"More than knowing! I adore him. The guy who was driving the car nodded.
Jiu Niang smiled, and also sat down in front with Hu Die, "Little brother has seen Gu Huacheng?" ”
"Ouch, the two of you are a mouthful of Gu Huacheng's name, you must be very familiar with him, right? Shouldn't we all be honored with the title of Mr. Gu? The little brother looked at Jiuniang and Hu Die, looking very worshipful.
Jiu Niang snorted and laughed.
Hu Die stretched out his hand and patted Jiu Niang: "Do you know who this is?" ”
"Who? It can't be Mr. Gu's new wife. The little brother smiled, "I heard the shopkeeper say that the two of you are from Yecheng, have you seen the scene of Mr. Gu marrying a wife?" Isn't it particularly gorgeous? The ten-mile red makeup mentioned in the book, you should have really seen it, right? I also heard that a prince went? What does that prince look like?
