After four or five days of driving, I didn't dare to stay in the town for too long during the day, and only at night would I hurriedly find an inn to rest, and even dry food and other things would go directly to the innkeeper to buy.

Every pass is checked very strictly, but fortunately, the formula is also a smart person, and it happens that Mo Xi is a girl who has seen the world, but there is no big mess, I took a piece of gold leaf to the money bank called Jin Manyu to exchange for silver tickets and broken silver, and left the word "don't read" to Chu Mo.

I plan to exchange more silver tickets and other things before I leave the southern country, I am afraid that there is no such money bank in the gold country, and it is too risky to use gold leaves to exchange them elsewhere.

Moxi is the first time to go out by himself, although the journey is thrilling, but there is a lot of fun, the surname of the car is Zhao, let us call him Lao Zhao, a kind eyebrow and kind eyes, honest and very careful, every day before rushing to wipe the carriage clean.

That Lao Zhao is a smart man, he never asks too much, doesn't say much. Sometimes he also knows how to avoid suspicion, several times he beckoned the officers and soldiers to be exempted, Mo Xi saw that he was diligent, and he was happy to chat with him along the way, and it was also interesting to listen to him talk about the experience of running away.

"Gongzi Xie, are we going to eat dry food outside the city or go into the city today?" I was looking at the map in my hand, and I had seen it thousands of times, and I was still stunned when the sound sounded outside the car door.

After pondering for a while, he replied, "Go into the city, find an inn to freshen up, this road is dusty, and you are tired enough, please have a good meal today." ”

Mo Xi stopped his needlework and smiled.

I didn't expect Mo Xi to be able to embroider in such a bumpy place in the carriage, and I often look at her side face as docile and soft, and I feel bitter for such a good girl.

I don't like this kind of thing, so I asked her to go to the study of the bazaar to buy me a few books, although she is literate, but she doesn't understand that kind of book is good-looking, the owner of the study asked her what to buy, she said that it was bought for her husband to pass the time, and the boss gave me a lot of military history and the like, it looks a little boring, but it is quite interesting to look at.

Although the knowledge in the books is very scattered, and the printing technology is not very good, but it also made me know a lot of things that I didn't know before, which was originally used to pass the time, and I didn't pay too much attention to it.

I don't know where to go, I only know that this city is called Qingzhou.

The entry and exit gates in Qingzhou have not been investigated very rigorously, and presumably the news has not yet reached here.

With the tall castle tower as the center, the houses on both sides are lined up one after another, and there are tea houses, wine shops, butcher shops, and temples.

In the store, there are specialized in silk and satin, jewelry, spices, incense paper horses, etc., in addition, there are medical clinics, fortune telling, and all walks of life.

The head of the big shop is also tied up with "Cailou Huanmen", hanging the banner of the market, soliciting business, and the pedestrians of the market are rubbing shoulders one after another, and the river is endless.

There are businessmen, gentry watching the street scene, officials on horseback, hawkers, family members in sedan chairs, monks with walking feet with baskets, tourists from other places asking for directions, children in the streets and alleys who listen to and hear stories, children of wealthy families who drink in restaurants, disabled old people begging on the edge of the city, men and women, old and young, scholars, farmers and businessmen, three religions and nine streams, everything.

A song and dance is leveled, and a piece of joy is harmonious, which makes my heart that has been hanging for a long time can't help but be soothed.

Seeing that this place is so peaceful, I don't want to rush so much.

"Lao Zhao, you will help me find a house, this place is clean, I want to stop for ten days and a half months." Closed the curtain and said to the outside.

"Hey, what kind of house does Childe want, and what is the price?" Lao Zhao's voice was a little hesitant, and it passed by in a flash.

I thought about it, there were dozens of gold leaves on my body, and there were a few silver tickets and broken silver in my hand, which added up to more than a hundred taels, but I still didn't know much about the prices here, so I asked, "How much silver is a separate house with a yard?" ”

"With a yard, well, if the son is not afraid of high prices, you can rent it for a month for about fifty taels."

Only fifty taels? That's not expensive either.

"Okay, find the restaurant first, let's eat something, and then you go and help me find it, the secluded one, and come back to give you the hardship fee."

"Look at Childe's words, you have taken good care of the little old man along the way, and you have taken a lot of silver, how can you be embarrassed to pay for hard work, Childe and Mrs. rest assured, Lao Zhao and I, I will definitely find a good house for you, but ......"

"But what?" It was Mo Xi who spoke.

"But I can't live here with the two of you for a month, and I still have a wife and children at home, I'm really sorry."

As soon as Lao Zhao's voice fell, Mo Xi said unhappily, "Your style, you said it well at the beginning, but now you actually want to regret it, hum, you can want all the silver." ”

"Uh, hey, Childe, I'm really sorry."

Outside the car door, Lao Zhao's tone was full of struggle, I knew that it was not easy to work, and said with a smile, "Lao Zhao, don't worry, in this way, if we settle down today, you can go home, and you will come to pick us up after twenty-five days, okay?" Along the way, I have been accustomed to you catching a car, and I am afraid that I will have to adapt to it for a long time if I change someone else, and the price will still be given to you as usual. ”

"Okay, okay, Childe's idea couldn't be better, thank you, Childe."

Mo Xi pouted, frowned and complained, "Xianggong, why are you so ......?"

"It's not easy for people, don't be angry, let's be in Qingzhou for a month, you have to take care of my food, I don't know if our little lady can do it?" I patted her hand lightly and quipped.

"Look at what you say, the slave family is not the kind of girl who doesn't touch the spring water with her fingers." She looked so confident that I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Since he came out, Mo Xi has been much more cheerful than before, daring to joke with me, will ridicule me, blame me, and no longer regard me as a master, but as a family member, this change also makes my heart warm.

Although there are occasional quarrels, she is still considerate and considerate to me, no matter how big or small, this heart is enough for me to treat her well.
