After that, he said goodbye to Zou Xue, saying that he was going to find a companion.

Zou Xue didn't stop her, but Zou Le'an said, "The companion the girl said was the son yesterday?" ”

Mei Niang nodded, "Exactly!" ”

Zou Le'an said with a smile: "Last night there was a fire in the stable, burning several carriages, among which it seems that there is a girl's family. ”

Mei Niang thanked her and walked to the stable in the backyard of the inn.

As soon as I turned the second gate, I saw that the horse shed was burning black, and there were many people around, and Su Huanyu's displeased voice could be heard from a long distance: "You mean an accident?" But according to Ben Gongzi, this burnt ash doesn't look like the stuff in our car, or is your store a black shop at all? Changed everything in Ben Gongzi's carriage? Set fire to cover up the truth? ”

"Childe, you can't spew blood, my store is a century-old brand, you went out to inquire, when did that kind of thing happen?"

"There was no before, and it can't be said that there will be no in the future, and our cart and horse are not ironclad evidence."

The shopkeeper was still arguing, Mei Niang squeezed into the crowd to take a look, Jiang Chuye and Uncle Jiang were also there, both wearing straw hats on their heads.

With Jiang Chuye's eloquence, he naturally can't argue with others, and Uncle Jiang is reluctant to come out with his own identity, Su Huanyu pouted the corners of his mouth arrogantly, no matter what the store said, he just insisted that the store swallowed their things, and then let the fire go.

I saw the burnt carriage over there, the layer of light or dark gray on the carriage, and the four horses next to it that exuded the aroma of roasted meat......

Mei Niang also felt that the store had changed the things on their car, otherwise a cart of rice grain and dried meat would not have been burned to this color even if it was burned thoroughly.

The ash after the burning of rice grain and dried meat cannot be light gray, and it is impossible for those dried meat to be burned so thoroughly, there is not even a single slag, and the ash that looks light and fluttering, no matter how you look at it, it is all grass and wood ash, is it that their cart is still not horse grass?

Mei Niang silently walked to Jiang Chuye's side, Jiang Chuye naturally took her little hand and saw the hat ring on her head...... Very satisfied.

Actually, Jiang Chuye and Mei Niang didn't care much about that cart of grain and jerky, there were still a lot of things in the space that were better than that, but this matter was obviously the idea of someone to beat them for food, if it was really made by the store, they naturally couldn't just forget it.

And, the four horses that were burned...... It's all good horses that can't be found outside, and even the best Maxima here has to stand aside, how can they get away without a horse?

Su Huanyu was still arguing with the shopkeeper, "Don't say that this son has wronged you, even if this cart of grain and this son doesn't care about you, but how do you compensate for the four horses that were burned to death?" Don't tell Ben Gongzi that you can't see that these four horses of Ben Gongzi are rare good horses, not to mention priceless, every horse is a good thing to sell outside. ”

The shopkeeper was drenched in sweat when he heard this, but he saw that the four horses were not simple, and when he entered the store, he took a few more looks, compared to the cart of grain, every horse had to be closed by him, but he never thought that a fire would not only burn people's grain, but even the horses were burned to death.

Although it was not only this family's horses and carts that were burned, but other families also burned some to a greater or lesser extent, but even if other families had a lot of goods on the cart, they were no better than other horses.

These four horses are going to kill him, and he can't afford to pay for them.

The shopkeeper was forced to kneel on the ground and plead, and Mei Niang also saw that the shopkeeper might have nothing to do with the matter, but he was unlucky to catch up with the incident in his shop, did he really want him to smash the pot and sell the iron to close the store and lose money?

Although they didn't know who did this, they didn't have time to spend a cart of grain and four horses here.

After arriving at the end, the store really had no choice, and said, "Why don't you report to the official?" ”

As soon as Su Huanyu heard the report, he pulled out his waist, "Okay, this son is still trying to see which dumb official has governed this realm so unevenly, and he can't satisfy this son, and when this son returns to Beijing, he will let people clean him up." ”

This arrogant attitude also makes people see that Su Huanyu is from an extraordinary background, and he is about to clean up the magistrate directly with a big tone, this is a character that he can afford to provoke in a small shop? In case it affects the big man again, the small shop really doesn't want to open it anymore.

The shopkeeper's sweat is even more fierce, and the official is not either, and it is not the report that he does not report, so he is there.

It was Jiang Chuye who came out to relieve the siege, "Forget it, a few horses...... Nothing more. ”

The shopkeeper almost knelt down for Jiang Chuye excitedly, just the four horses, and ...... That's it, this master is really generous.

How did he know that Jiang Chuye really didn't want to deal with the officials here, if he met an acquaintance again, the truth that he was not dead would reach the ears of the national teacher, and many things would be inconvenient in the future.

Of course, this matter is settled, compared to the loss of four horses and a cart of grain, they want to return to the capital as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

Fortunately, the store compensated four horses and some grain for the four people, although it was not as good as their original ones, but it was reasonable, but the horse's foot was much worse, usually a day can walk six or seven hundred miles without hurry, and now it will run three or four hundred miles after this day, and the horse's physical strength must be considered, of course, the road conditions are not good for one reason.

After using the free breakfast provided by the inn, I came out of the inn, and after walking for half a day, I caught up with a group of carriages from behind, which were the brothers and sisters surnamed Zou and their entourage who knew in the inn.

The whole eight carriages, driven by more than 20 people, are covered with thick tarpaulins, and you can't see what is inside, my sister Zou Xue is sitting in the carriage, and my brother Zou Le'an is riding on a horse, that is, the horse compensated by the store is not fast, otherwise how can the brother and sister catch up?

After that, the Zou brothers and sisters didn't say that they wanted to go all the way, anyway, they took the same road and the same speed, so they walked back and forth all the way.

From time to time, Zou Xue would also invite Mei Niang to sit in her carriage, but Mei Niang's carriage had no shed or roof, unlike her carriage with a fragrant tea table in it.

I thought that Mei Niang would agree, but Mei Niang refused one by one and thanked her.

She is not familiar with the brother and sister, but the brother and sister seem to be very enthusiastic about her, which makes her have to wonder if they have any intentions, after all, people are separated from each other, and the Zou brothers and sisters are not pure.

It's not that she thinks about everyone badly, she also met a lot of teams going to the capital along the way, why didn't she see the brothers and sisters doing this to others? Nothing to do, to be courteous, not to be a sister or to steal.

Even Mei Niang sometimes wonders, why did the fire in the inn start so suddenly? Other people's horses are not a big deal, and the four horses burned to death belong to her family, maybe the brother and sister are afraid that their horses will run too fast and can't catch up, so they will burn the horses to death first, and then come to the closer.

Although this idea is a bit villainous, Mei Niang thinks that she is not a gentleman.

Even when Zou Xue asked about the names and identities of the Jiang family's father and son and Su Huanyu from time to time, Meiniang just smiled and said nothing, making Zou Xue touch a soft nail but couldn't attack.

However, the brother and sister are carrying eight carriages, and they are a little conspicuous when they walk on the road, and there are many people who block the road and want to grab some things along the way, all of them are bandits and robbers with hundreds of people, and it seems that many people who can't eat in the troubled times will do this.

Fortunately, don't look at the brother and sister, there are only about 20 people, each of them is a good player, and the brother and sister are even more impressive, and there is no danger on the road after killing and running away some people.

At this time, the four of them stopped the horse and the car on the side of the road and entered the same mode...... Watch the play!

The brothers and sisters of the Zou family didn't expect the four of them to help them, they led their own people to rush forward every time, and then they would apologize to the four people with sincerity, and kept saying that they attracted the bandits, which frightened the four of them, and the four of them got into the car neatly...... Continue on your way.

It wasn't until the last time, after beating away a group of 100 bandits that Zou Le'an slammed to the ground again, "I am deeply sorry for making you frightened." ”

Su Huanyu hugged the big lamb in his arms and blinked his eyes, "Since you know the way, why do you have to follow it all the time?" ”

The warm smile on Zou Le'an's face cracked, and Su Huanyu got on the horse and followed the footsteps of the other three.

Zou Le'an shook his head, he just couldn't find himself comfortable, everyone made it clear that they didn't want to see them, but they had to get up, isn't this cheap?

I just don't understand what kind of psychology my sister is? Wouldn't it be good for him to enter Beijing earlier? Isn't there just four extraordinary horses? Now that the horses are burned to death, I haven't seen what happened to them to the inn, doesn't it already show that the origin of these people is very simple?

If his horse is burned in the inn, not to mention that the official family will arrest the innkeeper and shut him up, at least the inn will not be able to open.

After that, he still spent his days in a hurry, fighting bandits, and occasionally passing by some miserable towns or villages, Zou Xue would let people boil a pot of gruel and make porridge by himself.

Whenever this time Meiniang and the four of them will continue to rush without steps, but the horse's feet are really weak, and it won't be long before they will be chased by the team of the brothers and sisters.

Sometimes the four of them would take advantage of this opportunity to drive the carriage and hide, and then slowly hit the road after the brother and sister team had gone far, but the result was ...... After walking a short distance, you will find that the sibling team is waiting for them somewhere not far away.

Do you want to go the other way...... This is the only way to enter Beijing.

After the last, Mei Niang could only sigh that there were so many BMWs in the space, but there was no way to take them out, otherwise these people's horses would not be able to catch up with them if they ran away.

It's getting hotter and hotter, and it's really fatal to rush in such weather.

Jiang Chuye used a few branches to set up a shelf on the side of the carriage, and picked a large number of branches and leaves to block it, Mei Niang was not so sunny when she sat in the carriage, and from time to time she would throw an ice cube in her mouth when others were not paying attention.

The most pitiful thing is the man on the horse, who is really full of the pain of the sun.
