Chapter 124: On the Road

The fourth day of October, early in the morning.

Zhou had always been nervous and afraid that her husband would not return under the pretext of not returning, so she couldn't sleep on her side, so she woke up Shen Xi early in the morning and returned to her back alley home to wait.

Shen Mingjun didn't delay this time, and came back just after the hour.

At the same time as returning home, Shen Mingjun also brought back some of his "belongings" in the Wang family, which were nothing more than a set of patched sheets and bedding, plus some clothes that he usually wears.

According to Shen Mingjun's idea, no matter how old these things are, they should be brought to Fucheng in line with the principle of not wasting them, but the Zhou family didn't even bring some half-new and old bedding and clothes at home, how could they let her husband bring these?

Shen Mingjun had a bitter face and said, "I've been wearing it for many years, and I have feelings, so let's take it with me." Before leaving, I want to go to my mother and eldest brother to have a look and kowtow to them. ”

Zhou didn't know what to say for a while. However, Shen Xi had a flexible mind, and seeing Zhou's ugly face, he hurriedly ran over and pulled Shen Mingjun's sleeve and said:

"Dad, haven't we kowtowed to our grandmother? It's not like you're not coming back...... The key to the house was left to my grandmother, and she knew when we were leaving, so she would have come if she had the heart. If she doesn't come, it means that she doesn't value it too much, and we don't need to waste time......"

Shen Xi said this to remind Shen Mingjun to distinguish between priorities and priorities, and now that the two families are going to Fucheng, they can't postpone the departure time just to wait for him. He had a "gentleman's agreement" with Shen Mingjun before, considering Zhou's position and situation, and not making Zhou's too difficult to do anything.

Shen Mingjun thought about it and nodded reluctantly, cleaned up a little, and followed his wife and children to the pharmacy with a suitcase. When he arrived at the ground, Shen Mingjun said a brief hello to Hui Niang, and then said nothing more.

Although the two families are very close, Hui Niang and Shen Mingjun basically don't talk much, Hui Niang's widow status is easy to provoke right and wrong, both Hui Niang and Shen Mingjun are avoiding this.

Carrying a few boxes full of silver taels and copper coins into the car, Hui Niang checked inside and out, and found that nothing was missing, so she prepared to leave.

The two families got into the carriage, and the one who was responsible for driving the car for Hui Niang was an experienced coachman who often traveled back and forth between Tingzhou Mansion and Ninghua, and he was very familiar with it. The Shen family's side is directly driving the car, after all, this carriage has to sit on the maid, and it is not very convenient for Shen Mingjun to stay in the carriage.

Originally, there were five carriages, but Hui Niang later added another one, four of which were responsible for transporting goods, and each car had three men escorting the car.

There were exactly twenty-three people in the group, and they officially set off at two o'clock in the morning.

The carriage was not going very fast, and in Shen Xi's opinion, the speed would not exceed five kilometers per hour. The highway mileage from Ninghua County to Changting County is 87 kilometers, which can be reached in one and a half hours by car. But in this era, there are no asphalt roads, no bridges and tunnels, and you have to take winding roads to cross mountains and mountains, so you have to walk for two days in a short mileage.

The journey was bumpy, and there was nothing to do in the carriage, so Shen Xi told the story again.

Among the maids, Xiaoyu and Ning'er were in charge of the car with the Shen family, plus Lin Dai, who was sitting next to Shen Xi, Shen Xi told stories to the three girls, but it was the story of the four masters and apprentices in "Journey to the West".

Because the story is roughly appropriate, but Tang monks and apprentices are not qualified to ride in the carriage, and they are still happier in comparison.

“…… Tang Seng kowtowed his teeth and kowtowed, and was ordered. Sun Wukong held on to the fan, walked close to the side of the mountain, and waved a fan with all his strength, and the flame mountain calmed the flames, and the silence removed the light. Wukong likes to be happy, and fanned it again, only to smell Xi Xi Xiaoxiao, and the breeze moved slightly. The third fan, the sky is full of clouds and deserts, and the drizzle falls ......"

Shen Xi's story is roughly told according to the original book, demons and monsters emerge in an endless stream, and they are too vivid in the back, those ghosts and monsters seem to be real, Lin Dai is a little scared, the cat is on Shen Xi's shoulder, but he still wants to hear the story clearly.

This road is the official road, than the road from Shuangxi Town to Ninghua County is much easier to walk, but there are many mountain streams and woods in Fujian, the terrain is uneven, from the carriage window to look out, the mountains are continuous, but the mountains are not very high, the autumn is high and refreshing, the sky is blue, the scenery is pleasant.

"What happened?"

Just when Shen Xi was looking at the scenery outside the window in a daze, Xiaoyu couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Yu has the least words among the five maids, and sometimes she doesn't say a word all day long, or Shen Xi's story is too beautiful, which actually attracts her attention, just like Shen Xi used the story to gradually trap Lin Dai's heart, this trick seems to work well for Xiao Yu.

Lin Dai pouted beside her and said, "Later, they must have lived a happy life." ”

Shen Xi used this "end of the story" to fool Lin Dai not once or twice, Lin Dai can also find out the pattern, but whenever Shen Xi doesn't want to tell a story, he must have used this kind of words vaguely.

But this time, Shen Xi showed a sly smile on his face and asked, "How can the four of them live a happy life?" ”

Ning Er thought for a while and raised her doubts: "Isn't there still a white dragon horse?" She's the princess of the Dragon Palace! ”

In Shen Xi's story, the white dragon horse is the daughter of the brutal and willful dragon king, and Shen Xi also "understands" the hard journey of the four Tang monks and apprentices, and specially arranges a female character for them to accompany them all the way.

Lin Dai smiled and said, "That is, the four masters and apprentices have lived a happy life with the princess." ”

Shen Xi looked embarrassed when he heard this.

Such a pure and flawless little Lori, after a long period of edification of his story, tapped out the potential of her black belly, and could actually think of such a "heartbreaking" ending of the story.

Ning Er is older, hearing Lin Dai's words, she couldn't help but secretly cover her mouth and smile, while Xiao Yu looked at Shen Xi with a very innocent gaze, she obviously didn't understand the end of this story, and she couldn't accept it.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Shen Xi Zhengse said, "Tang Seng and the four apprentices are people with great wisdom, and later Tang Seng returned to Middle-earth with the scriptures, and the four masters and apprentices all found their own errands in the Heavenly Palace, Sun Wukong continued to be his Monkey King, Zhu Bajie was the marshal of Tianpeng, as for the Sha monk and the white dragon horse ......"

Shen Xi didn't know how to arrange these two people for a while, after all, Bailong Ma Shengsheng asked him to bend.

Lin Dai hurriedly asked, "What happened to Monk Sha and White Dragon Horse in the end?" ”

"To live a happy life, of course...... You see that Monk Sha is honest, he works diligently on weekdays, and he doesn't talk much when he carries the burden, and he likes Bailongma the most, so in the end they got married. Shen Xi was very satisfied with the ending he made.

Lin Dai was a little dissatisfied: "On weekdays, Zhu Bajie is also very good to Bailongma." ”

Shen Xi pouted: "Zhu Bajie has his Chang'e in his heart, and Gao Laozhuang's daughter-in-law is waiting for him, Bailongma thinks he can eat it, and he definitely doesn't like him." ”

Lin Dai stuck out her tongue and grimaced, not looking very satisfied, but her body still naturally snuggled closely with Shen Xi, and when Shen Xi stopped telling stories in the back, she also enjoyed the scenery outside the window.

Only Xiaoyu frowned and pondered, as if she was still reminiscing about the story of "Journey to the West".

Eating dry food on the road at noon, the convoy stopped to rest, Lu Xi'er stayed with her mother all morning and was a little bored, and in the afternoon, she had to go to the carriage of the Shen family.

In the afternoon, it was still a story, but this time Shen Xi spoke very slowly. Finally, when the sun was about to set, the group finally arrived at the station where they planned to stay.
