Chapter 433
This time in the southern suburbs, what made Lin Wan most fortunate was that the wind stopped and the rain stopped.
But even so, the whole trip was extremely difficult.
Although the official road to the southern suburbs was just renovated last year, there is no road repair technology in the previous life, neither cement nor asphalt, and there is no road repair machinery with many tricks in the previous life.
After several days of heavy rain, the official road is not much better than the dirt road, and the official road, which was originally quite smooth, has become extremely potholed and muddy.
The carriage began to bump when it left the city, and there was the first slippage not far from the city, but fortunately, the coachman arranged by Lin Xiuwu today not only had first-class driving skills, but also had good skills, and carefully controlled the horse all the way.
Although it was still difficult to avoid bumps, the carriage was well controlled.
It's just that the current road conditions are too bad, and even if the coachman's skills are good, the carriage is still in danger several times.
It's nothing like the wheels getting stuck in the mud puddle, this time Lin Xiuwu gave Lin Wan a whole team of guards, there are many people and great strength, there is no need for Lin Wan to get out of the car at all, the guards can work together to lift the carriage out of the mud pit.
The most dangerous thing is that the carriage slips and rolls over.
There were a few times when the carriage slipped and saw that the carriage was about to fall to the ditch on the side of the road, and the guards guarding the carriage did not care about their lives, and they all shot together to avoid the danger of the carriage overturning on the side of the roadside ditch, of course, Lin Wan and the big girl Chuncao and Dongyue who were sitting in the carriage also suffered a little.
Chuncao and Dongyue, as Lin Wan's eldest maids, changed from face-to-face with Lin Wan when they were in the city to one left and one right when they went out of the city, sandwiching Lin Wan in the middle.
Lin Wan knew in her heart that the purpose of these two maids was to protect herself, and she was both moved and helpless.
Everyone is a mortal body raised by their parents.
It's just that Lin Wan understands in her heart that there is a clear hierarchy here, and if she is injured, it will be difficult for the maids to take care of themselves.
Rather than rejecting the kindness of the two maids, it was better to follow their wishes, so Lin Wan did not refuse the actions of the two maids, but repeatedly told them to sit firmly and hold on.
Lin Xiuwu knew the difficulty of this trip, and the carriage arranged for Lin Wan was specially modified, not only was the carriage reinforced and stronger, but in order to avoid collision and injury, the hard objects in the carriage were also specially treated? It's also about installing handles and the like in the car.
It's just that the road is too bumpy? Even though the carriage has undergone various treatments, the three girls in the carriage still suffer a lot.
Even Lin Wan, who was protected by the two maids in the middle? Was also hit and hurt all over? There were also two bags on his forehead, not to mention two maids who sacrificed themselves to protect the Lord.
Lin Wan rubbed the arm that was hurt and the bag that hit out of her forehead? Let out a long sigh, this is the disadvantage of not being able to ride a horse!
If you can ride a horse? He was stumbled upside down while sitting in a carriage.
A trip that would have only taken just over an hour? They had to walk for three hours to arrive, and when they arrived at Zhuangzi, it was already dark.
Qi Jun, who was busy in the winery, heard the news, and looked at Zhuang Ding who came to report the news with wide eyes and shock? Leave your work behind after a moment? Turned over and rode quickly to Zhuangzi.
Although the winery and Zhuangzi are both at the foot of Nanshan, there is still a distance between the two, when Qi Jun Pegasus rushed back to Zhuangzi, Lin Wan had already soaked in the hot spring and changed her clothes, and was drying her wet hair by the winter moon? Chuncao was packing up Lin Wan's clothes on the side.
I heard that Qi Jun rushed back from the wine shop, and while reaching out to take the handkerchief that Dongyue was twisting for himself? While instructing Dong Yue, he said: "Brother Qi Jun must have come from the wine shop on horseback, please take him down to change his clothes first?" Although it is summer, we should not be negligent. ”
Lin Wan and her entourage just arrived in Zhuangzi? And the sky is starting to rain again? Although the rain is not heavy? But even if Qi Jun came from the wine shop wearing a hat, he would definitely not be dry.
Dongyue retreated, Lin Wan wiped the handkerchief a few times, threw away the handkerchief in her hand and planned to tie herself in a ponytail like this.
Chuncao, who was packing up her clothes, saw that she hurriedly put down the clothes in her hand and walked over, and pressed Lin Wan, who was holding the head rope and tied her hair while getting up, to sit in front of the dresser again, picked up the handkerchief and continued to wipe Lin Wan's hair, and scolded softly in her mouth: "Since the girl can think about others, why is she so careless about herself!" ”
Lin Wan had a helpless smile on her face, so she had to sit down again, patiently waiting for Chuncao to dry her hair for her and then take care of her hair meticulously.
When Lin Wan came to the small hall next to the bedroom, not only Qi Jun was already there, but Lin Wenqing and Lin Hongxuan were also here, sitting in the small hall talking.
"I just heard the third son talk about the difficulties on the road, and the girl has worked hard all the way." When Qi Jun saw Lin Wan, he stood up and said deeply to Lin Wan.
He was really guilty, if it wasn't for the problem at the winery, Lin Wan wouldn't have to take the risk to come to the southern suburbs.
In fact, Qi Jun did not send a letter to the city this time, it was Lin Wenqing who sent the letter to the city.
Although the incident in the wine shop is a bit big, it is also in the situation preset by Daddy Ye, and after emergency treatment, although there will still be losses, it will not have any impact on this year's orders.
It's just that Lin Wenqing didn't know about this, and he panicked when he learned that there were two batches of sour wine in the winery.
He is in charge of sales, and he knows best how many orders he has placed with customers this year.
Because of too much rain, the reduction of grape production is a foregone conclusion, and with two batches of sour wine, can we still complete the order?
He wanted to go over and ask Qi Jun, but in the past two days, Qi Jun threw himself into the wine shop and saw no one.
Lin Wenqing's heart was even more bottomless.
Remembering that he had heard Father Ye mention what happened in Qingzhou Mansion before, he had tasted all kinds of delicious fruit wines made by Lin Wan himself over the years, and he knew Lin Wan's talent in winemaking, so he sent a letter to the city.
He didn't directly propose to let Lin Wan come to Zhuangzi to solve the problem of sour wine, but just said this fact.
With his understanding of Lin Wan, Lin Wan would definitely come to Zhuangzi like the last time there was an insect infestation in the orchard.
Sure enough, the letter was sent into the city early in the morning, and as soon as it got dark, Lin Wan and his party braved the wind and rain and arrived in Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs.
After grooming, although Lin Wan had tried her best to hide it, the two bags on her originally smooth forehead still appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"Sister Wan, are you okay?" Lin Wenqing looked at the two bags on Lin Wan's forehead, and finally realized that the road described by Lin Hongyu just now was difficult and dangerous, and he felt a little more guilty in his heart.
Lin Wan touched her forehead embarrassedly, she asked Chuncao to find a way to cover these two bags, but unfortunately no matter what she did, she couldn't cover it.
Facing Lin Wenqing and Lin Hongyu's guilty gaze, as well as Qi Jun's distressed gaze, Lin Wanwan smiled: "It's just that I hit two bags, I'm not a porcelain doll, I'm not so squeamish." Let's talk about the bar, how much is sour, and how much is it? ”
