179 Double-headed Mountain1

He didn't expect that Mo'er could guess the surprise of this trip with just one sentence. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"My lady is really smart." Qu Tianlin praised her with a smile, but Mo'er understood that this was Qu Tianlin's answer to him, Mo'er was about to say something, but Qu Tianlin suddenly treated her as if she was a child, touched her head, and said to her with pity: "This time is full of dangers, even if you can avoid some bloody disasters, my husband still hopes that you can stay in the City Lord's Mansion." He still didn't want his beloved wife to accompany him all the way to suffer and be injured.

"Husband......" Mo'er was moved by Qu Tianlin's words, and the white and tender soft wattle took Qu Tianlin's broad palm that touched her head and put it on her face. Fool, you don't want me to suffer with you, why should I want to see you hurt! We are husband and wife, and we should share weal and woe together! ”

That night, the husband and wife talked about their love and did not fall asleep until the next day, when it was almost dawn.

At noon the next day, everyone gathered at Mrs. Tai's Lixiangyuan for dinner, and Qu Tianlin opened his mouth to report the results of their discussion last night to Mrs. Tai.

After hearing this, the old lady did not immediately bow her head, but it was because of Mr. Hanshan's later words that the old man nodded.

Then, Mrs. Tai discussed the travel time with Mr. Hanshan, and finally set off on the second day of the Lantern Festival, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

This time it was a long way to go to Saiwai, and Mo'er went out so far away, so she naturally went back to Dongfang Mansion to say hello to her parents.

Of course, she didn't tell Dongfang He and the Qin family the real purpose of their trip, but just told them that they were going to Saiwai to do a business, and by the way, they would buy some things outside the Saiwai and come back to Jiangnan to sell.

Qin Shi was very reluctant to hear this, she left Mo'er in Dongfang Mansion for two nights, and kept telling her to pay attention to safety and take care of her body and other nagging words.

And Dongfang He, who has always played the role of Yan's father, shared with his daughter some of his experience with the caravan over the years.

Two days later, Mo'er returned to the City Lord's Mansion and began to put away her salutes.

On the fifteenth day, Mrs. Tai specially set up a banquet in Qingzhu Pavilion, on the one hand, she was an older person, and she liked the liveliness of the family, and on the other hand, it was also regarded as a practice banquet for the four of Mo'er.

No one drank alcohol that day, but at Mo'er's suggestion, the family made dumplings and dumplings together, and in order to please the winners, everyone also put a thin slice of ginger in the dumplings and dumplings.

In the Great Xia Kingdom, ginger has the implication of resisting all evils, and putting ginger in glutinous rice balls or dumplings also hopes that Mo'er and his party can go smoothly and smoothly.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, it is advisable to adopt, marry, sacrifice, pray for blessings, travel, build, break ground, move, and enter the house.

At the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Mrs. Tailao, Mr. Hanshan, Mama Xu, Dongfang He, Qin and others saw off Mo'er and their party.

"Lin'er, Mo'er, Fenglin, Xuanlin, there are nearly 2,000 miles from Linlang City to Saiwai, the road is dangerous, you guys should be careful!" The old lady opened her mouth and told the four of Mo'er, her eyes full of reluctance.

Feng Lin spoke cautiously at this time: "Grandmother, don't worry. I will definitely take care of the three of them, and once the purchase is done, we will rush back as soon as possible. ”

"Okay." The old lady said a few good words, and there was a smile of relief on her face: "If you are at ease with your grandmother, their grandmothers will rest assured that they will be handed over to you." ”

On the other side, Mo'er also reluctantly said goodbye to her father and mother: "Mother, I traveled with the caravan this time, it is a long experience, and the second elder does not have to worry about his daughter." There are brothers and sisters-in-law at home who serve the second elder under their knees, and their daughters are also relieved. Mother, don't worry, your daughter will send you a letter every time she arrives at a post station, and I hope that the mother will not worry about her daughter. ”

At this time, Qu Tianlin, who was standing next to Mo'er, also assured his father-in-law and mother-in-law that he would take good care of his wife.

"Master, grandmother and Linlang City will leave it to you." Before leaving, Qu Tianlin asked Mr. Hanshan again cautiously, and Mr. Hanshan relieved him, he would definitely guard Linlang City well.

With Mr. Hanshan's assurance, Qu Tianlin was relieved, and he pulled Mo'er into the carriage of the caravan and started their journey outside the caravan.

This is the sixtieth day of the Qu caravan's journey, all the way west, passing through Anhui and Hubei, and now heading towards Chang'an.

In early spring, the snow melts and the roads are slippery and difficult. Therefore, Zhang Xi, the chief shopkeeper who accompanied Mo'er and Qu Tianlin to preside over the caravan, proposed to wrap the horse's feet with a thick coarse cloth.

Not to mention that his attention is very good, which makes the foot support of the hurried road much faster.

When the time came to noon, the caravan rested and found a place with abundant water sources to live and cook.

Mo'er can also take this opportunity to come down and take a walk, loosen her muscles, of course, there is Xuanlin to accompany her.

On Qu Tianlin's side, he discussed the next journey with the shopkeeper Zhang.

At this time, on the soft red earth, a foldable low table was placed, and a map depicted with animal fur was placed on that low table.

At this time, the shopkeeper stretched out his finger and pointed to a place on the map, and said to Qu Tianlin and Feng Lin: "City Lord, our caravan has arrived at Shuangtou Mountain after a hundred miles of travel, and a nest of thieves has set up a cottage here to forcibly take the goods of the caravans passing by. ”

The reason why this Shuangtou Mountain is called Shuangtou Mountain is because from a distance, this mountain range has two lions that resemble two lions sitting on the left and right, guarding the mountain range, so that the bandits who occupy this mountain name their cottage Lion Village.

"Look, city lord, this place is called Shuangtoupo." The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and pointed to a place on the map and said to Qu Tianlin: "This place is called Shuangtoupo, two slopes are convenient for Tibetans, and the bandits of this mountain are set up sentry posts here in Shuangtoupo, generally caravans who have friendship with the owner of the village enter and exit the sentry post, as long as they pay some money to buy the road, they can pass, if some small caravans pass by here, if they are lucky, they can pass by by calling enough money to buy the road; If you are unlucky, you are very likely to be killed. ”

"I don't know if my Qu family firm has a relationship with the owner of this lion village?" Xuan Lin asked.

Wai Fenglin's identity is just a big shopkeeper next to Qu Tianlin, which is equivalent to the identity of Zhang Da shopkeeper. But after following the caravan for so many years, all kinds of people, the shopkeeper Zhang didn't know how much he had contacted, and he was also a person with eyes, he could see that Qu Tianlin respected Feng Lin very much.

So when Feng Lin opened his mouth to ask him, Zhang Da Shopkeeper did not show a displeased expression on his face, but politely answered Feng Lin's question: "When the old man first entered the Qu Clan's trading house, he followed the old city lord to catch the caravan, so he still has some friendship with these bandits." As long as we pay some tolls, we can pass the checkpoint of the Lion Village safely. ”
