Chapter 21: Chance Encounters
After breakfast, with the help of Fluttershy, Chen Lianyue changes into men's clothes, combs her bun, and rushes to Apocalypse City with Zhu in a carriage.
In the past few years, he has been driving a carriage by a pillar, so his skills have also been practiced well. The carriage drove quickly and steadily, and it was just over an hour before it arrived at the Apocalypse City.
After depositing the carriage in the carriage and horse shop, Chen Lianyue and Zhu wandered around the city. After all, Chen Lianyue used to stay in the Chen family almost without leaving the house since she was a child, and she never went out to shop.
And since she changed her soul, she was immediately pregnant and kicked out of the house and moved out of the city, and Chen Lianyue really hasn't had a good visit to this Apocalypse City.
Qing/Lou/brothel/Courtyard are only open at night, and now it is the beginning of the morning (that is, more than 9 o'clock in the morning), according to normal speaking, the people in the brothel of Qinglou are still sleeping. After studying it with Zhuzi, the two decided to go to Yurong Garden again near noon.
Walking around the market casually, she bought some snacks for Chen Tianmeng and Fluttershy, when suddenly a familiar fragrance came, and Chen Lianyue couldn't help but sniff.
"Pillar, do you smell anything? It smells so good! ”
The pillar, who had been carrying things behind Chen Lianyue, also sniffed deeply when he heard her ask.
"Oh, little ...... Master, you're talking about this taste, this is the smell of barbecue. This barbecue tastes good, little ...... The young master shouldn't have eaten it, right? Come, I know that there is a famous Lao Li barbecue near here, which is cheap and affordable. ”
Led by the pillar in front, the two of them walked to a stall after a while, and saw a middle-aged man grilling skewers of meat and chicken wings with a red face.
Seeing this, Chen Lianyue was in a trance, as if she had returned to the previous snack street. The rich aroma of barbecue went straight into the nasal cavity, which made Chen Lianyue, who has never liked to eat barbecue very much and thought that barbecue was unhealthy, also had the urge to eat a bunch.
Seeing Chen Lianyue's appearance, Huzi only thought that she had never seen these before, and asked hurriedly.
"Young master, what do you want to eat, this taste is still good, and my mother brought enough money out when I went out."
"Well, that's chicken wings, I want a skewer of grilled chicken wings, let him add some chili." Smelling this nostalgic smell, Chen Lianyue decided to eat a bunch of them, and it was a memory.
Sitting at the table and chair on the side, Chen Lianyue waited for a while, and the pillar walked back with two skewers of grilled chicken wings. The two of them sat at the stall, smelling the aroma of barbecue, and slowly finished eating the grilled wings.
To be honest, this roasted wing is not as delicious as it is in modern times, because there are no spices such as cumin here, but just the oil, salt and chili peppers baked as seasonings also make Chen Lianyue feel nostalgic.
The business of the barbecue stall is not bad, although it is still morning, but Apocalypse City is a prosperous town after all, there are many rich people, and there are not a few people who follow the aroma to buy some barbecue to eat.
After eating the barbecue, Chen Lianyue and Zhu Zi walked towards Yurong Garden while talking, and just walked to an avenue, there was a sudden commotion behind them.
Chen Lianyue looked back, and a carriage came quickly at the intersection behind her, and with the bumps of the carriage, a woman's screams came from time to time in the carriage.
The coachman shouted loudly as he tugged at the reins. "The horse is startled, everyone get out of the way!"
The people on both sides of the road quickly dodged, and the bruises on the coachman's face burst out, which showed how strong he was pulling the reins.
Hearing only a "bang", the reins were suddenly broken, and the coachman was thrown out of the carriage with too much force for a while.
The horses galloped forward in fright, heading straight for Chen Lianyue, who was standing in the middle of the road. The passers-by on the side have already begun to exclaim, and they all think that the stupid boy who stood in the middle of the road is dying.
Chen Lianyue didn't care about the exclamations of passers-by, and when the carriage approached, she suddenly flew up and jumped into the carriage, and the yuan force in her hand flashed out and turned into a long whip, tightly entrapping the horse's neck.
With her left hand, she pulled the Yuanli long whip hard, lifting the horse's front hooves off the ground, and with her right hand, she turned into a Yuanli short whip and whipped it towards the horse's back. After a little twitching, the horse finally stopped with a snort, and walked anxiously in place, but did not dare to gallop any further.
The coachman got up from the ground, grabbed the broken reins, and began to reassure the restless horses.
Jumping down from the carriage, Chen Lianyue walked to the pillar on the side, shook her head at the worried pillar to signal that she was okay, and the two prepared to continue their journey.
"Childe, please stay."
The sudden sound made Chen Lianyue stop, and when she turned around, two women got out of the carriage, and it was the veiled woman who spoke.
The woman was wearing an apricot yellow dress, wearing a veil and walking towards Chen Lianyue with the support of the maid.
"Thank you for saving your life, little girl Yujiao, thank you here." Bowing down slightly, Yu Jiao gave a salute.
"Miss Yujiao doesn't have to be polite, just raise your hands."
Raising her hand to help Yujiao, Chen Lianyue suddenly felt that this name seemed to have been heard somewhere, so familiar!
Yujiao? Could it be ......? Chen Lianyue looked at the woman in front of her curiously, she really didn't expect that she would be so coincidental and meet the Yujiao girl from Yurong Fang here.
Raising her head, Yujiao's eyes swept across Chen Lianyue's face, and when she saw Chen Lianyue's earlobe, Yujiao was stunned for a moment.
"Childe is too polite, Childe saved Yujiao's life, and the little girl must thank Childe. I don't know if Gongzi will have time to get together in Yurongfang, so that Yujiao can thank Gongzi well. ”
Yujiao's moist eyes looked at Chen Lianyue with a smile, and the smile in her eyes was so clear, conveying that she already knew the meaning of Chen Lianyue's daughter's body.
Touching her earlobe, Chen Lianyue knew in her heart, it must be the piercing of her ears that revealed her identity, it seems that ancient people are not all easy to deceive.
"Okay, it just so happens that I also have something to go to Yurong Fang, so it's better to be respectful." Smiling slightly, Chen Lianyue bowed to Yujiao.
The coachman had already pacified the horse, and seeing that Chen Lianyue did not look down on herself because she was a Qing/Lou woman, Yujiao's smile became more sincere, and she warmly invited Chen Lianyue to ride in the carriage with her.
Chen Lianyue was not hypocritical, and simply agreed to her proposal, turned over and got into the carriage, and Zhu Zi sat outside the carriage with the coachman.
The street here is not too far from Yurongfang, and it will take less than a quarter of an hour to return to Yurongfang.
In the carriage, Chen Lianyue and Yujiao talked happily. Now that we know that everyone is a woman, there is nothing inconvenient, and after saying a few words, the two feel that it is too late to see each other.
Although Yujiao is a green/lou woman, her knowledge is really good, Chen Lianyue feels that if she is in modern times, Yujiao will definitely become a goddess-level star.
Because after getting into the carriage, Yujiao took off the veil, and she was really a great beauty who captivated the country and the city. At the first glance of seeing her true face, Chen Lianyue wanted to say that Chen Xuejin's flower boy is still very discerning! Yujiao is really a big beauty!
