The mule cart was quietly parked at the city gate, and the canopy hung with a white curtain of gray and yellowish marks.

That year, the old Tujun walked to the side of the car with his beard crossed, stretched out his thick and wrinkled hands, grabbed the corner of the curtain, and was about to lift it. The coachman standing on the side darkened slightly, and his face was about to stop.

"Ouch, Dalang! Why didn't the car go? With a screeching sound, the curtain was pulled up, and a head with a messy bun like a chicken nest poked out.

The old Tujun was taken aback by his defense, and hurriedly withdrew his hand and fell back, almost not falling.

"Ahh I said Dalang! Sleep all the way, do something decent, stop and don't go! The car was wobbly and I slept very well, I slept with Lang Jun all the way, and suddenly stopped and woke up! ”

The woman with messy hair like a chicken nest wore a crumpled soap-colored shirt and blue and black cloth wide-legged fat pants. The slap was painted with two large red rouges on his face, and two brooms painted with black soot were sprinkled with eyebrows.

He is thin and small, with a wooden hairpin stuck in his head and his hair scattered. While raising his hand and rubbing his sleepy eyes to look at the two Turkish soldiers, he glared at the two eyes, split a big red lip, and splattered and shouted:

"Hey! Who are you who are gathered in front of the slave, dare to fall in love with the beauty of the slave and want to be humiliated! Don't inquire, what kind of character Nuliu Xingniang is in the village! If you want to bully the slave, ask the slave first if the man will agree. ”

turned around and shouted a few times in the car, and suddenly woke up and opened his mouth to slap his legs and cry: "Oh my God, why did I forget that my man was stabbed with a secret knife by Liu Sandao a few days of murder!"

It's easy to catch up with Beijing this long distance, and I was expecting to find a good man to see the disease, but who knew that the beauty of the slave would cause trouble! Surrounded by these thieves, I Liu Xingniang is a woman with three chastity and nine spirits! You don't want to get it! ”

While crying, he rubbed his eyes, snorted and spit, and pointed to the noise of heaven and earth. The two Turkish soldiers opened their mouths wide, and looked at the woman in front of them in a daze.

The corners of the coachman's face and mouth twitched a few times, and he said helplessly: "Xingniang, Xingniang, you stop." These two are the military masters guarding the north gate of the city, not some bandits. Quickly lead our way out and show it to the two military masters for inspection. ”

After shouting three or five times in a row, the woman stopped crying and sobbing and said, "It turned out to be two military masters!" Dalang, you didn't say it earlier. The slaves almost took them for thieves who coveted beauty. The road is here, and the two military masters just have to watch. ”

As soon as she turned around and pulled out a few crumpled road guides from the package in the car, the old Tujun stretched his neck and carefully pulled the road guide from her hand to take a closer look.

I saw that the names of Liu Qingzhuang people in Qingxian County, Liu Xingniang, Liu Quanfu and Huang Daquan were written on the road guide, and the big red seal letter was clear, and it was really a serious road guide.

The young soldier was obviously startled by the woman, and stood still. The old Tujun swallowed his saliva and pressed his stomach back into his chest, trembling and asking, "Where is the other Huang Daquan?" ”

The Liu Xingniang twisted her ass and let go of her body, revealing a man lying on the dirty mattress behind her, with his head and face wrapped in strips of cloth, lying silently on the car board. Liu Xingniang pointed at the man and shouted:

"This is my man Huang Daquan, who was damn by pouring yellow soup and quarreling with Liu Sandao, and was stabbed several times. Master Jun, do you know which hospital in Beijing is the best, give us some pointers, if you cure my man, I will kowtow to the military master again. ”

As he spoke, he was about to jump out of the car to pull the old Turkish army, but the two Turkish soldiers took a few steps back, waved their hands and said, "I don't know, I don't know, it's not early, you should go into the city quickly, don't delay our handover." ”

Liu Xingniang was still unsatisfied, clapped her hands and complained loudly: "I just asked the two military masters, but I didn't know anything when I looked at the city gate, it seems that this capital is nothing more than that." I don't know where to spend the night tonight, Da Lang is confused, it's really annoying! ”

That year, the young Tujun shouted to the coachman: "After entering the city and going west, there are more mansions, and you can stay for a night for three or five cents, so go quickly!" Don't go to South Street, where the nobles are. It's easy for people like you to rush, so let's go! ”

The coachman thanked the two natives, jumped on the mule cart and flicked the whip, and shouted loudly as the cattle entered the city gate and drove west. The two Turkish soldiers let out a sigh of relief, and said with palpitations:

"And such a village woman, it's really scary. The little ladies in our capital are all delicate and beautiful, but there are no such spicy and ugly goods. ”

Tossed it all over, and it was already dark. Shops on both sides of the street have been closed. Lights and candles are lit in every house, and the smoke curls up, and the aroma of food comes out.

The tall black coachman had a tense face and drove through the paved streets with a straight face. Liu Xingniang in the car said softly: "Mr. Meng, how far is it from Master Chen's mansion?" ”

It turned out that the man with the strip of cloth wrapped around his head and face turned over and sat up, looking a little injured and weak. Raised his hand to remove the strip of cloth to reveal a thin and elegant middle-aged man's face, with three locks of long black beard, and smiled at Liu Xingniang: "The little lady who embroidered the apricot is witty, which really makes Meng admire." ”

If Zangjiao and He'er were here, they would definitely recognize that this woman dressed like a flower owl was actually embroidered apricots who had returned to Qingxian County, and it was Zangjiao's brother Quanfu who drove the car.

Xiuxing's big eyes flashed with a smile and said: "That stupid Tujun, it was really useless to be scared back by me three or two times." It's just that Mr. Meng is wronged to be in the car on such a hot day, but I'm afraid that it will be very uncomfortable. ”

Mr. Meng smiled slightly, describing a gentle and amiable smile: "Thanks to the rescue of Master Jin, and hundreds of miles of labor to send me to the capital, Meng is really ashamed to be wronged by the embroidered apricot lady and me in this car." ”

Xiuxing smiled coquettishly: "Mr. is a miracle doctor, and in the future, I will have to bother Mr. to take care of my wife, what grievances do I have as a slave, I have been walking into the city for a while, Mr. quietly take a look at how far this is from Old Man Chen's house?" ”

Meng Lingqi nodded, stretched out his hand, gently lifted the curtain of the car, looked out for a while, and said to Quanfu who was driving the car: "Huang Dalang, after the entrance of the front street, turn right to the south, and then cross the three horizontal streets to the back door of the Chen Mansion." Da Lang needs to go faster, and there will be a curfew at night, if he is discovered by the officers and soldiers of the Inspection Department, it will be a bad thing. ”

Quan Fu agreed in a deep voice, and hurriedly urged his head. The mule cart drove through the streets and alleys, and at last there was a cry, and the sturdy green mule came to a halt by a pink and white wall.

Huang Quanfu jumped off the mule cart and saw silence in the long alley, a black lacquered corner door was tightly closed, and two angry lanterns were hanging high on the eaves, swaying, with a Chinese character capitalized on them.

Seeing that no one was following before and after, Quanfu patted the dust on his body, and the whole short brown stepped forward to knock on the door.

After a while, I heard someone in the door ask in a deep voice, "Who knocked on the door without permission?" Huang Quanfu lowered his voice: "I am tired of reporting to Master Chen of your mansion, and I said that a gentleman surnamed Meng came to pay respects." ”

There was a stir inside, as if someone was rushing away. After a while, the wooden door creaked open, and a man dressed as a domestic servant carefully poked his head out and looked around, waved his hand at Quanfu and said, "Quick, please come in." The mule cart was unloaded and taken care of by someone. ”
