Chapter 171: Walking All the Way
It is now a cold winter, the cold wind is biting, after saying goodbye to Gu Fuyin and others, as soon as she got out of the city gate, the little maid Yuechan put down the thick cloth curtain in front of the carport, opened the rear curtain curtain to breathe, and then burned a pot of charcoal in the carport.
The charcoal fire is a kind of stove specially used for heating in ancient horse-drawn carriages, made of brass, covered with a lid, and there is a top-like device underneath, which can always maintain balance in the bumps, so the charcoal fire inside will not be turned upside down.
This time, the carport was neither stuffy nor cold.
It's just that this trip to 3,000 miles is not something that can be reached in one or two days, and the itinerary is boring, how to pass it. Yang Qiuchi and Song Yun'er gossiped for a while, and felt a little sleepy, so they snuggled on the futon and took a nap.
Song Yun'er had never been out of such a far door, it was a novelty, leaning on the window and looking out. Outside, the eyes were full of gloom, the branches and leaves were withering, a cold wind was blowing, and the smoke and dust were billowing through. Occasionally, one or two farmers shivering in the cold wind could be seen in the field, not knowing what they were picking up.
After watching it for a while, I felt bored, and I leaned on the back window to watch. I saw that the carriage in which Mrs. Bai's mother and daughter were sitting was very bumpy, and it seemed that the quality was not very good. As the carriage jolted, the curtain in front of the wind was rolled up by the cold wind from time to time, and the wind-blocking equipment of the carriage was not very good.
The carriages of Master Jin and Master Long were also specially ordered by Feng Xiaoxue, although they were not as luxurious as Yang Qiuchi's, but the comfort and cold protection functions were still much stronger than ordinary carriages. And Mrs. Bai's carriage was an ordinary carriage that Ying Tianfu temporarily found, which was relatively simple.
Song Yun'er shook Yang Qiuchi: "Bhoo~!" Brother, wake up! Wake up! ”
Yang Qiuchi's sleepy eyes were hazy: "What's wrong?" The carriage is shaking so comfortably that I'm dozing off. ”
"Don't sleep!" Song Yun'er leaned on the back window and looked at the back again, "Mrs. Bai, their carriage can't stop the wind and cold, it may be freezing!" ”
At this moment, Yang Qiuchi woke up from sleep, got up with a bone, and also leaned on the back window to watch.
The little maid Yuechan also came over. Before she could see it, Yang Qiuchi had already shouted: "Stop now, let's go and see!" ”
Yang Qiuchi's carriage stopped, and the entire convoy stopped.
Yang Qiuchi jumped out of the carriage, ran to the back in a few steps, picked up the curtain of the carport, and saw Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei snuggling together, and Mrs. Bai was wearing the fox fur criticism that Yang Qiuchi gave them in the Jinyi Guard's prison.
Although the two of them were dressed thickly, the ghost weather was gloomy and sunless, the cold wind was blowing, and there was no such stove in their car, and they were freezing.
When Bai Sumei saw Yang Qiuchi, a trace of joy flashed in her eyes, and then it dimmed again.
Madam Bai looked at Yang Qiuchi and smiled reluctantly: "Lord Yang, what's wrong?" ”
"Madame Bai, it's too cold in your car, you have to find a way to keep warm, otherwise, if you are hit at night, you two will have to get frostbite."
Song Yun'er and Yuechan also followed, and Yang Qiuchi asked Yuechan: "Do we have extra heaters in our luggage?" ”
Yuechan shook her head: "I prepared two, one in our car, and one for the two masters in the car." This thing is heavy and takes up space, so the old lady and the grandmother only prepare these two. ”
This is troublesome, if you make your own contributions, Song Yun'er is not afraid of the cold if she has martial arts, but the little maid Yuechan is going to be frozen, the most important thing is that she is most afraid of the cold, and she will definitely not be able to stand it.
Take the two masters' to them, this can't be said, what should I do.
Madame Bai rubbed her hands and said, "Young Master Yang, it's okay, we're fine, we're dressed thickly." ”
Bai Sumei glanced at Yang Qiuchi, lowered her head, and didn't speak. The white face was already red from the cold.
Yang Qiuchi was thinking about what to do, and Song Yun'er said behind him: "Brother, just call Mrs. Bai and the two of them to our carriage, isn't that okay?" Anyway, our carriage is spacious. It's no problem to sit two more. ”
Yang Qiuchi had this intention, but he was worried that Song Yun'er would be too careful, and he was also afraid that other people would talk too much. Now that Song Yuner said it, this is the best, and everyone is lively together. Yang Qiuchi was worried about boredom on the journey. At the moment, he said: "Yun'er's proposal is very good, Mrs. Bai, Miss Bai, please come and sit in our car." ”
Mrs. Bai still wanted to excuse herself, but she was very distressed when she saw Bai Sumei freezing like that, and she swallowed the words again, leaving only a series of thanks.
The little maid Yuechan hurriedly helped Mrs. Bai get out of the carriage and got into the carriage in front of her. He came back and got their clothes. The people got into the carriage and moved on.
After Bai Sumei and the others got into the carriage, they helped her mother find a corner and sat cross-legged.
It was really warm in the big carriage, and Madame Bai and Bai Sumei quickly eased up.
Yang Qiuchi said to Yuechan: "Yuechan, you have to serve Madame Bai's mother and daughter a lot along the way." ”
Yuechan used to be Madame Bai's maid, and later gave it to Yang Qiuchi, of course she knew how to serve. promised: "Yes, young master! ”
"No, no, that's not going to work!" Mrs. Bai waved her hand again and again, their mother and daughter could get such care from Yang Qiuchi, no different from a free person, they were already grateful, where did they dare to ask the maid to serve, and they resolutely refused to allow it.
Yang Qiuchi persuaded a few words, but Mrs. Bai just didn't allow it, so she had no choice but to give up.
I thought there were more people and more people, but Bai Sumei got into the carriage and didn't say a word, just sat cross-legged and recited the scriptures silently.
Song Yun'er and the little maid Yuechan were in the car just now, Yang Qiuchi didn't treat the two of them as women, so they stretched their arms and legs very freely, but now that Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei were in the car, Yang Qiuchi was a little at a loss.
Bai Qianzong originally wanted to give Bai Sumei to Yang Qiuchi, but only because he asked Yang Qiuchi to divorce his wife, he did not achieve this marriage, so that Bai Sumei was sad and desperate, and had no intention of becoming mortal, and escaped into the empty door, and then the Bai family suffered a catastrophe, although Yang Qiuchi saved the lives of Mrs. Bai's mother and daughter, but Yang Qiuchi still felt that he owed Bai Sumei something.
Mrs. Bai is now full of gratitude to Yang Qiuchi, she just wants her daughter to be safe and secure now, but she doesn't dare to expect Yang Qiuchi to accept Bai Sumei as a concubine.
Therefore, although there were five people in the carriage, none of them spoke, and for a while, it was very quiet. All that remained was the sound of the wheels of the carriage grunting for miles and the whining of the cold wind.
There is no bench on this carriage, they all sit cross-legged, the ancients are very accustomed to this sitting posture, but Yang Qiuchi rarely sits like this, but since they came up, Yang Qiuchi can only honestly learn to sit cross-legged, and after a while, his back hurts and his legs are numb.
Yuechan sat next to Yang Qiuchi, and when she saw Yang Qiuchi twisting around and changing his posture there, she guessed that he was not used to sitting like this, pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Young master, stretch your legs, Yuechan will help you rub your legs." ”
If Yang Qiuchi had just crossed over to the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely be startled, but after so many days, Yang Qiuchi had gradually become accustomed to the rotten life of the small landlords in this evil feudal society, and it was really uncomfortable to keep curling his legs, he glanced at Bai Sumei, and saw that he was silently chanting with his eyes closed, so he wanted to quietly stretch his legs behind Yuechan.
Yuechan chuckled, hugged Yang Qiuchi's two legs, and lifted them in front of her.
Yang Qiuchi was embarrassed, but it was not easy to take it back. Fortunately, I wear thick white socks, which I change every day, and I don't have athlete's foot, and I don't smell when I arrive, so I won't smoke this beautiful little girl.
Yuechan gently massaged Yang Qiuchi's feet and feet, which was very comfortable. With Yuechan's massage, Yang Qiuchi gradually became less nervous.
Seeing that Bai Sumei had been chanting the scriptures, she was not easy to disturb, and when she finally finished reading a paragraph, she interjected and asked, "Bai girl, do I have a question for you?" ”
Bai Sumei opened her eyes, slightly shy, stretched out her orchid-like fingers and gently brushed the hair on her sideburns, her bright big eyes flashed, and said, "Childe, please speak." ”
Yang Qiuchi sat up: "What is the name of the white girl's ordination?" ”
"The Dharma is called the Three Tribulations."
"Three Tribulations?" Yang Qiuchi thought about it for a while, and immediately understood the meaning of this legal name, which meant that she had suffered three disasters and escaped death three times. Thinking of the past, Bai Sumei's soft lips and plump and soft breasts suddenly came to mind. I can't help but feel a little excited.
Song Yun'er interjected: "White girl, you have suffered three disasters, no, counting the latter time, it is four times, all of them were saved by my brother, you really have fate." ”
Bai Sumei nodded, her face flushed slightly, I don't know if she was imagining the artificial respiration Yang Qiuchi gave her, or if she was recalling the scene when Yunya Mountain couldn't help but throw herself into Yang Qiuchi's arms.
Mrs. Bai took over the conversation: "Yes, plus this time I was implicated in rebellion for no reason, our Bai family suffered four times before and after, all of which were rescued by Yang Gongzi, and Yang Gongzi was kind to my Bai family." ”
Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "Madam Bai, don't say that, I'm a little embarrassed." ”
Song Yun'er asked Bai Sumei: "White girl, why don't you read the scriptures when you read the scriptures, can you remember such long scriptures?" ”
Yang Qiuchi interjected: "Yun'er, you are strong in martial arts, how do you remember so many moves?" ”
"Repeat it. I remember it after a long time. Song Yun'er was a little proud, and then asked Bai Sumei: "Not long after Miss Bai became a monk, can she remember so many scriptures?" ”
Bai Sumei looked at the flickering charcoal fire in the copper furnace in the middle of the carport, and said leisurely: "In the mountain temple, in addition to chanting scriptures, what else can you do?" ”
