Chapter 7: Night Walking
The four of them ran on the official road for half an hour before they saw a few bonfires lit by their own people on the side of the road, and there were forty or fifty in number.
The handsome man turned over and dismounted, walked a few steps to the fire, and knelt down on one knee at a man in a black cloak: "Master, a few of my subordinates have searched in the nearby village, and they are all the kind of flatbed carts that pull goods. And they looked ahead, and there was a convoy ahead of us, stopped at the edge of the woods sixty miles away, and they had several wagons, and their subordinates borrowed them from them, but they refused to borrow ......them."
"Why borrow? Wanyun, do you still use me to teach you how to do things? "The voice is a man's, and he looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old, and his voice is cold and cold, without temperature.
Wan Yun also knelt down on the other leg, "Master, they have more than 30 guards, they are people who run on the road all year round, when we went, there were people in ambush on the side of the road and on the trees, and the subordinates didn't dare to ......"
As he spoke, Wan Yun's body also fell down.
"So?" The man in the cloak said.
"Yes." Wan Yun raised his head and said, "Why don't you bring someone over......?"
The person under the cloak raised his hand, not knowing whether he was touching his chin or nose, and thought for a while before he said slowly: "No." We're waiting here, and they'll be here by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. ”
"Yes." Wan Yun said.
The man under the cloak turned his head to look at the carriage that had gone to the wheels, the corners of his mouth twitched, the big shaft of the carriage broke, so that he could sit on people, he asked the wheels of the carriage to be removed, so that the grandmother could sleep well.
He sent people to look around, but when he couldn't find a suitable carriage, he asked people to look ahead, and there was one in front, but it turned out to be a hard stubble.
Then he's waiting here to see them tomorrow and see how he cleans them up.
…………
Ruoxue had that dream again.
When Ruoxue woke up, she was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she was sleeping in the carriage, and there were Lianxin and Peony lying beside her, and the three of them were huddled together, and she still felt cold.
Ruoxue shrunk her little face into the quilt a little, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, looking at the black carriage, and couldn't see anything.
It was very dark in the carriage, and she couldn't see what was in front of her with her eyes open, but listening to the familiar sound of breathing made Ruoxue feel more at ease, otherwise she would really scream in fear.
Feeling the temperature in the carriage, Ruoxue wondered if such a cold night would freeze her sister, thinking about her sister in the carriage next to her, and remembering the dream just now.
Since the day the eldest master Mei Jiye died, Ruoxue has dreamed like this six or seven times.
In the dream, she saw Mei Jiye's death, saw her sister unconscious, and saw a Taoist aunt who called herself Zichen Zhenren, and gave her sister a good nightmare.
Later, she married into the Huang family, the family business was handed over to the second uncle Mei Jishan, and the younger sister married the second aunt's maiden nephew.
The Mei family gradually decayed in the hands of the second uncle, and was finally annexed by the Huang family, and the second uncle's family was displaced and disappeared.
My sister was not welcomed in the Yang family, and was oppressed by her mother-in-law and husband, and died of depression.
She was fine when she was in the Huang family, but after the Huang family accepted the Mei family, they didn't like her in every way, and in the end, a letter of resignation drove her out of the house.
She had nowhere to turn to, so she had to live in a hermitage and die of sorrow.
This dream is too real, and it is so real that Ruoxue is afraid, because on the day she dreamed, her father died, and the next day the Huang family came to ask for marriage, hoping to marry her during the period of filial piety.
She was frightened at the time, crying and resolutely disagreeing to marry into the Huang family, but fortunately, the second uncle and the third uncle did not agree, and the Huang family left in a huff.
Unexpectedly, on the day of my father's burial, my sister really fainted.
Ruoxue thought about it for a long time, but she didn't remember when that Dao Gu came, and she really didn't want to wait any longer, so she wanted to find the Dao Gu named Zichen Zhenren.
Just now she dreamed of Zichen Zhenren again, and her words did not change, it was still the same sentence: "Immeasurable Tianzun, poor Maoshan Jade Void View Zichen Zhenren, come to the mansion to solve problems." ”
I heard the murmuring of my sister in another carriage, and the voice of Miss Dan Tangerine, and the two carriages were parked side by side, so that they could be heard very clearly in the quiet night.
Don't worry, you can get to the foot of Maoshan Mountain the day after tomorrow at the latest.
Ruoxue sat up, and Lianxin on the side also sat up, "Does Miss want anything?" ”
Ruoxue pursed her lips and said, "Go and call Steward Fang, and we'll set off." ”
"Oh, good." Lian Xin said that she was about to get out of the car, stopped again, and asked uncertainly, "Start now?" ”
It's only midnight, right? It's too early.
"Well, there you go." Ruoxue said.
Lianxin responded, touched the shoes on the side of the car, put the black on her feet, stretched out her arms and patted Peony's face twice, before pushing the car door and going out.
Peony was sleeping soundly, and when she felt someone slapping her face, she shrank her head into the quilt and muttered in a low voice, "Don't make trouble, it's not dawn yet!" ”
Because of the cold weather, several people slept in their clothes, and it was still very cold.
The moment the door was opened, the car suddenly lit up a lot, followed by a gust of cold wind.
Ruoxue shivered, and quickly got into the quilt again.
"It's not dawn!" Peony rubbed her eyes, looked at the swarthy carriage, and muttered, "Where is this?" ”
Ruoxue laughed, it seems that she is not alone in her sleep, there is another one here!
Ruoxue reached out to hug the peony, and put a somewhat cold hand into her clothes, "Good sister, warm my hands." ”
"Ah......" Peony exclaimed, and was about to reach out to fight, but suddenly woke up, this is the eldest lady, my mother! If this continues, their family will not have to live.
Peony's body trembled slightly, and she let her hands warm up in her arms, "Miss is dreaming again, so she gets up and tosses the slaves, oops, haha...... Miss, don't make a fuss......"
"You're so bold! You dare to choreograph me. Ruoxue said and went to pinch the itchy flesh of the peony.
The door was suddenly opened, and another gust of cold wind blew in, interrupting the laughter in the carriage.
Lian Xin got into the carriage, quickly closed the door, rubbed her hands and said, "Steward Fang said, clean up and leave immediately." ”
"yes, okay." Ruoxue said.
After a few moments, I heard the footsteps of people, the sound of talking, and the sound of horses trampling on the ground.
Fang Jin commanded the guards to pack their bags, the horses put on saddle ropes, extinguished the fire, and everything was busy in an orderly manner.
After another tea time, the carriage slowly moved, and gradually ran faster.
The housekeeper was sleeping by the fire, and was suddenly awakened, looking at the guards walking back and forth, he didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly pulled someone to ask, only to know that the eldest lady was going to leave early.
Jia Ding thought that the eldest lady was going home!
This eldest lady can really toss people, you didn't go back yesterday, and you have to leave early in the middle of the night, isn't this tossing people?
PS:
Ruoxue dreamed that the tickets were flying all over the sky, (covering her mouth and laughing)
Hurry up and vote! Ruoxue is second on the new book list.
