Chapter 608: Vomiting (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Although the Temple of Compassion is outside the city, it is not too far from Sheng'an City, and it is only twenty miles away from the city.
However, the Cen Mansion is in the East City, and the Mercy Temple is outside the West City, and it will take some time for the carriage to pass through Sheng'an and go out through the West City Gate.
Riding in a carriage is not much slower than riding a horse, and Zhao is even delicate, but now that he is sick, he can't stand the bumps, so he repeatedly ordered the carriage to be slower.
Cen Xiyan was not in a hurry, her carriage was behind Zhao's carriage, and she followed slowly all the way.
It was a pain for the guards on horseback, and they had to keep their speed extremely slow, about two carriages.
At this moment, it is the end of the first month, the weather is still very cold, and there is still a lot of snow on the official road and the mountain outside. ”
"Oh?" Jingshuang looked at Cen Xiyan and asked, "Why did Miss suddenly say this?" ”
Chuanwu and Chuanbei also looked at Cen Xiyan strangely, a little unclear.
Cen Xiyan explained lightly, "It's morning at the moment, the warm sun has just come out, the snow on the official road has melted a little, the road is not very slippery, the sky is bright, the road is naturally easy to walk, but at this speed, I am afraid that it will be noon when I arrive at the Temple of Mercy, I have entered the incense, I have returned the vow, and then I am afraid that the sun will also set, when the temperature drops, the original melting snow will condense into ice, and the road will be slippery when it is dark, and it will definitely be much more difficult to walk than now." After a pause, he continued, "I wonder if we can get back before the gates close......
Jingshuang has been by Cen Xiyan's side for many years, and has a tacit understanding with Cen Xiyan, when she heard this, she sighed low and said: "But this carriage is not going fast, and there is no way to do it, if you can't go back to the city today, you will have to sleep outside, the old lady, Mrs., I'm afraid you have to worry......
When Chuanwu and Chuanbei heard their conversation, they were also worried.
The sound of their voices in the car was not small, and the guards outside naturally heard it clearly, and they all showed embarrassment.
The leading guards frowned even more, they escorted Mrs. Zhao and Miss Six out, in case they really didn't go back, it was not easy to explain.
He pondered for a while, then urged the horse to the side of Zhao's carriage, bowed his head and said a few words, naturally telling the Zhao family what Cen Xiyan was "worried about".
The Zhao family was dissatisfied, but they also understood that if they continued to hurry so slowly, they were afraid that they would really not be able to return to the city today, so they said a little impatiently: "Then let them speed up and go to the Temple of Mercy earlier." ”
After getting Zhao's orders, the speed of the rush finally increased, because it had been delayed a lot of time before, and this speed up was really a lot.
Zhao was tossed in the carriage, her face was pale, and she was almost about to vomit, and Mother Feng hurriedly held her back and patted her gently.
But Feng's mother couldn't sit steadily in the carriage, and she herself was uncomfortable swaying during this bump, and the strength in her hand was not well controlled.
Zhao was even more uncomfortable when he was slapped by Feng's mother, so he shook off her hand and said in a not very good tone: "Take it away!" Useless things, so insignificant, do you want to shoot me to death? ”
Mother Feng was scolded by Zhao's words, and quickly withdrew her hand, not daring to touch Zhao's anymore, and her face was a little difficult to look at, but when Zhao's came over, she immediately adjusted her face to make herself look normal, and persuaded her, "Madame, bear with me, it will be here soon." ”
Cen Xiyan's ear power is outstanding, although Jingshuang is not as good as her, but the movement in the carriage in front is really not small, and the master and servant listened to the movement clearly.
Cen Xiyan couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips, and smiled slightly, seeing that Zhao was suffering a little, she was in a very good mood.
Jingshuang listened to Zhao's uncomfortable voice, and secretly said in her heart, "You deserve it!" ”
Then he took the pastry and handed it to Cen Xiyan, "Miss doesn't eat much in the morning, let's pad my stomach." ”
Cen Xiyan took Jingshuang's hand, pinched a piece of pastry and ate it.
Their carriage is equipped with a shockproof device, which is much more comfortable than Zhao's, even if the speed is increased, the people sitting in the carriage will not have any discomfort.
Chuanwu and Chuanbei looked at the strange carriage carefully, their faces full of surprise and exclamation.
Finally arrived at the Temple of Mercy, the convoy stopped, and Cen Xiyan and the others got out of the carriage.
Today is not the first day of the new year, nor the fifteenth day of the new year, nor is it another day to rush to the temple fair, but there are still many people who come to the Temple of Compassion, men and women, groups of three and two, come to burn incense and worship the Buddha.
When he was on the road, Cen Xiyan heard a lot of people rushing here in the car, and now seeing this lively scene, he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, it is rumored that the incense of this Temple of Compassion is extremely prosperous, and it seems that it is worthy of its name. However, it must be because it is close to the capital.
At this time, Zhao also got out of the carriage with the support of Feng's mother, her face was pale, her eye sockets were deep, her hair was messy, and she looked very embarrassed.
Not only that, she got out of the carriage, squatted on the ground, and vomited "wow", almost vomiting out the meals she ate in the morning and the acid water in her stomach!
At this moment, there are a lot of people around, seeing this woman like this, everyone covers their mouths and noses, fans dodge, and the people who look at the Zhao family are all frowning, and even a little disgusted.
It's just that seeing the gorgeous carriage of the Zhao family, surrounded by maids, mothers-in-law, guards, etc., and looking at the wife who is not an ordinary family, no one dares to come up and scold.
Soon, two young monks came over and recited a few Buddha names, "Amitabha." After that, he cleaned up neatly.
Cen Xiyan glanced at Zhao lightly, and said to Jingshuang and the others beside him, "Let's go inside first." ”
At this time, she didn't want to come over and perform any kind of caring drama with false affection, besides, since she returned to Cen's house, her relationship with the Zhao family has not been harmonious, and there is really no need to do it in terms of face, the air here is too bad, and she is better to stay away.
Jingshuang, Chuanwu, and Chuanbei responded, followed Cen Xiyan, and walked to the main hall.
The people nearby saw that Cen Xiyan and the Zhao family came together, and looking at their age, they could guess that they were not people of the same generation.
Seeing Cen Xiyan throw down the Zhao family and go inside alone, someone frowned and said in a low voice: "Whose young lady is this?" I don't know who the sick lady is? Why don't you just go in by yourself......"
Someone else answered, "What do you know?" Looking at what the lady is wearing, she is not the lady of the main house, she is just an aunt......"
