CHAPTER XIV
Jiang Yushui glanced at the sky, and couldn't see anything in the gray sky, similar to every morning in the past, but it was indeed colder than yesterday, and she wore four or five pieces inside and out, but she couldn't stop the cold to the bone.
Others may think that Jiang Shangshi is anxious because of his proximity to the east, but Jiang Yushui knows her father, he has always been the most calm and stable person, and it is because of this that what he said just now made her even more puzzled.
Along the way, except for the climate and tiredness, they hardly encountered any difficulties, Jiang Yushui stayed in the carriage every day and didn't have to do anything, it was very leisurely, and the days were so comfortable that she almost forgot the purpose of this trip. Now that she was about to reach the east, a dark cloud suddenly shrouded her heart, and she was a little uneasy.
Halfway through the journey, it snowed heavily, and the caravan had to slow down, until the snow blocked the road, and they had to stop. However, there were no inns or inns within a radius of ten miles, so they could only find tents and camp on the spot, waiting for the snow to stop.
The snow fell so quickly that it didn't reach its knees in a short time, the sun was obscured by heavy clouds, the sky was overcast, and the mood of the people was depressed.
Some people in the caravan couldn't help but complain, and their voices were not deliberately lowered, so that everyone around them could hear them.
"Mr. Wei has long said that it will snow heavily today, and some people don't listen to persuasion and insist on going their own way, now it's okay, right? Everyone is trapped in this wilderness. ”
"It's going to be Donglin in a few days, and I don't know what the monkey is anxious about, thinking about money and going crazy, right?"
"Shhhh
"I don't, what can he do to me?"
Several people were wearing the clothes of the Wind Tiger Dart Bureau, drinking wine together, and one of them was probably drunk, and his voice became louder, attracting the eyes of people who had pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.
Jiang Shangshi was not far away, and pretended not to know the situation over there and walked towards the carriage where his wife and daughter were.
The curtain of the car was lifted from outside, and the cold wind mixed with the fine snow took the opportunity to drill in, Jiang Yushui was blown all over his face, shivered and shrank his head, and looked at Jiang Shangshi who was smiling outside with round eyes, and couldn't help but shout: "Daddy, what are you doing." ”
Jiang Shangshi's smile widened on his face and asked, "Ah Wan hasn't suffered like this, has he?" It's Daddy who is too stubborn and can't stand you and your mother. ”
They also heard the noise outside the carriage, Jiang Yushui thought about it, stood up and made a gesture to get off the carriage. Li hurriedly stopped him, but was dodged by Jiang Yushui, and couldn't help but say: "Ah Wan, don't mess around, it's snowing outside and it's cold." ”
"Ah Wan didn't mess around, but Ah Niang should pay more attention to her body, you are my younger brothers and sisters in your belly, and you can't be affected by the cold, so Ah Niang is obedient and stays in the carriage obediently and doesn't go out, you know?"
With that, she jumped out of the carriage, but she didn't expect the snow to accumulate so deeply in just a few moments, and she threw herself head-on into the snowdrift.
Li called her worriedly, and Jiang Shangshi not only did not lend a hand, but laughed.
Jiang Yushui quickly got up and patted the sticky snow off his body, and then Jiang Shangshi said slowly, "Ah Wan is okay, right?" ”
…… It's really biological.
She ignored him and smiled at Li Shi, who was looking at her, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'm fine." Then he glared at his father, "Daddy shouldn't hurry up and put down the curtain, Auntie can't blow the cold wind!"
Jiang Shangshi was waiting for his daughter to scold him a few words, but who expected her to say this when she opened her mouth, and she was stunned for a moment before putting down the curtain.
The snow was still falling, although it was not above his knees, but for Jiang Yushui, it was over his waist and almost to his chest, Jiang Shangshi hurriedly walked over and carried his daughter on his back.
Father's back is warm and generous, and the memories overlap at this moment after more than ten years, hitting her chest violently, Jiang Yushui only felt a warm current running all over her body, and the cold was reduced a little, making her want to cry.
"Didn't Ah Wan get angry with Daddy just now?"
Jiang Qiushui shook his head vigorously, thought about it and changed his words: "I'm angry, so I want to punish Daddy for carrying me for a long time!" ”
"Okay, okay, Ah Wan hopes that Daddy will carry it for as long as Daddy will depend on you."
Jiang Shangshi carried her on his back and walked as he spoke.
"Since Daddy knows that it will snow heavily today, and it is almost to the east, why don't you listen to Mr. Wei's advice and insist on setting off?"
Jiang Shangshi did not answer immediately.
Jiang Qiushui used a curious and puzzled tone, she was worried that Jiang Shangshi didn't hear it and misunderstood that she was blaming him for saying this, and added: "I don't mean to blame Daddy, I know that Daddy must have done this for a reason, you are not a person who will not care about the safety of others in order to arrive in Donglin a day earlier." ”
Jiang Shangshi said: "I can't say it, but this heart is always a little unsteady." ”
It's intuition.
The two unconsciously approached the crowd gathered together to chat, Jiang Shangshi was full of concern and didn't notice it, those who were saying bad things about him were talking vigorously and didn't notice the approach of the two, drank wine, his mind was not very clear, and he couldn't keep the door on his mouth.
"The snow is getting heavier and heavier, I don't think it will stop until it gets dark, let's all sleep in the wilderness."
"Whew! If it weren't for the amount of money he gave, who would be willing to listen to him? If the snow doesn't stop before dark, Lao Tzu will be gone! ”
Jiang Qiushui was so angry that he replied with a sneer: "If you want to leave, leave now, no one will stop you." ”
When everyone looked at her, she was also fearless, "My father spent money to invite you to come to press the dart, not to enjoy the blessings, if you think you are the uncle, why did you bend your waist for five buckets of rice in the first place?" Having money is amazing, don't accept it! ”
She was on Jiang Shangshi's back, and she could guess with her toes that she was Jiang Shangshi's daughter. The little girl looks cute and delicate, it is not difficult to see what a beautiful embryo she will be when she grows up, although she is still childish, but her round eyes are looking at them coldly at the moment, and her childish voice says unceremonious words, arrogant but irrefutable.
Someone was unconvinced and was blocked by a girl and couldn't speak, saying: "What nonsense are you little girl, your father invited us to press darts, we collected money, isn't the task to help him press darts?" Why sleep in the wilderness? ”
As if hearing something funny, Jiang Yushui laughed out loud and looked at the speaker mockingly: "This uncle, are you taking on the task for the first time?" Since you have to do good things after receiving money, what is it to sleep in the wilderness? Speaking of the darts, you have been comfortable all the way, and now if someone does come to rob the darts, I don't know if you can keep us safe. ”
This undisguised questioning angered them.
"Our Wind Tiger Dart Game is the No. 1 Dart Game in Beijing, who dares to mess with us!"
Jiang Qiushui secretly rolled his eyes and let out a perfunctory "oh".
