Chapter 1036: Go to Zhangjiahe
Lin has been by Bai Yanyu's side, for fear that something will happen if she cries like this, and when the coffin is sealed, she saw that Bai Yanyu was still crying, so she reminded in a low voice: "Call my brother quickly, he gave you everything, and he really hurts you as a sister." If you don't call him brother, how can you rest under the Nine Springs? Child, listen to your mother's words and scream. ”
Bai Zhenzhen also cried and persuaded: "Third sister, you can call it, he must have been waiting for this brother!" ”
But Bai Yanyu was unusually stubborn, pursed her mouth tightly, and refused to call out this brother.
Lin couldn't cry either, but she still had to persuade her daughter: "Yan Yu, you have to be obedient, the dead are great, and you can't accept it if you don't want to accept it in your heart." He is your brother and your brother, both in life and after death. You call out, recognize this brother, and come to worship every Qingming in the future, and it will not be in vain for his hard work for you. Yanyu, call it quickly! The soil has been sealed, and when the soil is all sealed, you won't be able to hear him if you call him again, so call it quickly! ”
Bai Yanyu's mouth was still tightly pursed, and he couldn't scream at his brother.
Finally, the person who filled the soil stopped, and Jun Mulin turned around and called her: "Bai Yanyu." ”
She was stunned for a moment and looked up at him, "Brother-in-law." ”
Jun Murin nodded, "The last spade of soil, do you call it?" ”
She opened her mouth, but her voice was hoarse, and it seemed as if something was blocking her throat, and she couldn't make a sound.
Jun Murin was helpless, sighed, and told Jiang Yue: "Fill in the soil!" ”
Finally, Jiang Yue raised the last spade of soil, and at the moment when the soil did not land, Bai Yanyu finally let out a poignant call - "Brother! ”
Brother this voice, Bai Crane Ran remembered it for many, many years, and everyone who heard it remembered it for many, many years......
The day after the burial of the five princes, the Li family punished the nine clans.
At that time, there was a carriage on the road in the suburbs of Beijing, the style was very ordinary, and the wheels would make a creaking sound, and the carriage was old when I heard it. Although it will not collapse and cannot pull people, but it will not be able to pull the long distance, after all, the horse pulling the cart is also an old horse, and it will pant for breath after walking for a while, and the speed will be very slow.
There was a middle-aged couple sitting in the carriage, the man looked like he was thirty-five or sixteen, with dark skin and a cold appearance, and there was a not very obvious scar on his left cheek, which added a bit of fierceness.
The woman looked a few years younger than him, but she was also about thirty, her appearance was delicate, there were a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes, she was not tall, her body was thin, and although her hands were not rough, she was not a pampered rich lady at first glance.
The two of them were neatly dressed, and although the clothes were satin, they were not good satin. Although there were two servants with him, a man and a woman, they were all coarse linen clothes, and they seemed to be just small families with medium or even lower conditions.
The man's legs and feet did not seem to be very neat, and a small stool was placed in front of him, and one leg was placed on the stool, and he had to pinch the hammer a few times from time to time. As soon as the woman next to him saw him rubbing his legs, she immediately adjusted the angle of the stool to make him more comfortable.
The car was going northwest, and the driver was a simple and honest man, and from time to time he asked the people inside through the cotton curtain of the carriage if they wanted to rest, and asked the man if his legs were comfortable, and if he was uncomfortable, he would walk slowly.
The maid in the car hurriedly said: "No, no, the car is already moving very slowly, and it should stop if it is slow." My lord can still stand it, you just have to catch the car, we are also in a hurry to catch the boat of Zhanghe, I am afraid that it will be too late. ”
The man who drove the car was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It's slow enough, first, to take care of the legs and feet of the gentleman, I'm afraid that the carriage will be too bumpy and uncomfortable to sit in if I catch up fast." Second, it's because my horse is too old, and the frame is old, so I can't run very fast. Usually, only two people are pulled, and at most three people are seated, because it is slow, so the price is cheap. You said that you came to visit relatives in the capital, and the money was almost spent, and now you want to go back to your hometown, and you don't have enough money, so you can only afford to hire me for this trip. I saw that you really had no choice, and no one else would pull you for the little money I was given, so I had to reluctantly give you a ride. ”
The maid in the car said again: "You are real, sigh, we have no way, the old lady went to Beijing to visit relatives, who wants relatives to dislike us poor, we have spent almost all the money we have brought on our bodies, and we can't get a smile from others." No, even the cost of going back to his hometown is tight, otherwise he can't abandon the land route and take the water route. ”
The coachman urged the horse again, and said: "Because the Zhangjia River is a living water that enters the sea, so this season the Zhangjia River is not frozen, and it can be navigated. ”
The maid in the car said, "Yes, yes." ”
Zhangjia River is in Zhangjia Town, the river leads to Lancheng in the northwest, from Lancheng into the sea, people have to get off the boat, and then take the land route into Ningzhou Mansion. Ningzhou Mansion is the last provincial capital in the northwest direction of East Qin, there are three cities, the last city is both a copper city, and the one bordering the copper city is Gebu Tongluo Night.
The two countries of Gebu and Luo Ye were connected, dividing the territory outside the northwest of Eastern Qin equally, and the two countries often grabbed resources and the ownership of the territory, and even started a war in serious cases.
In this regard, Dong Qin has always taken a wait-and-see attitude, but occasionally he will intervene, most of the time it is towards Luo Ye, after all, Luo Ye is attached to Dong Qin, and Gebu, since Chun Yu Ao ascended to the throne, the matter of Sui Gong is three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, and he is very unconcerned.
The carriage departed from the upper capital city and traveled to the Zhangjiahe Wharf in Zhangjia Town, which originally only took more than two hours to travel. But because the car they were sitting in was too slow, and the horses were basically not running but walking, so when they arrived at the Zhangjia River, it was already past the time of Shen, and it would be dark after a while.
The maid handed the coachman a small piece of broken silver, which weighed a few pennies, and the coachman said with a bitter face, "It seems that this is less than the price we have agreed!" Although your silver is in good condition, it is still missing! ”
The maid patiently argued with him: "This big brother, the silver is indeed short, but we arrived too late. We got on the bus just after midday, and the normal carriage walked for more than two hours, and it should have arrived after a while, but your carriage had been walking for a whole day, and it was almost six hours. I said when I was in the capital before, even if we walked slowly, we should arrive as soon as noon passed, but you look at the sky now, the sky is going to be dark, if there is no boat to depart at night, we still have to stay in Zhangjia Town for one night, and it will cost money to stay this night. ”
The man who was driving the car scratched his head, thinking that this maid was also right, and he didn't expect to walk for so many hours, and then look at his horse, he was so tired that he didn't want to move. I couldn't help but feel distressed for a while, and I couldn't care about the silver, so I said that the road was safe, and quickly led the horse to find forage.
The maid returned to the woman, "The old lady will wait here first, and the slave and maid will go to the dock to inquire if there is any boat that will depart in the evening." If not, we'll really have to find an inn. ”
The woman was not at ease, and called out to her, "Be careful, speak reasonably, and do not argue with others." ”
The maid waved her hand, signaled that she understood, and trotted all the way to the dock.
The attendants who stayed behind helped the old man with bad legs and feet, and found a big tree to lean on, and the woman also came to help. When the three of them got together, the old man's lips did not move, but he said in a very low voice from his mouth, "At least eight eyeliners follow." ”
The woman helped her to straighten her collar as she learned to speak softly without moving her lips: "Eight are on the shore, and there must be one on the boat." I didn't expect us to be so secretive, and we were still targeted by them. ”
These two people are none other than Jun Murin and Bai Heran who have changed their disguises, and the two servants, a man and a woman, who came with them, are Luo Xiu and Moyu. The sword shadow followed in the dark, but in order to avoid the eyeline, he didn't know which path to choose at this time. In winter, the snow also went to Gobu, but she didn't go with them, she took the land route.
Even so, he was still discovered, and he followed him all the way to Zhangjia Town.
Jun Murin said: "It doesn't matter, I can't be sure of our identity when I look at them, I should just be suspicious, as long as we don't show flaws, we should follow half of them and we won't follow them anymore." It's just that even at that time, we can't relax our vigilance, until we leave the Eastern Qin and enter Gebu, our identities still can't be exposed. After arriving at Gebu, first find a way to meet the fourth brother, and then make plans. ”
Bai Heran nodded with Luo Xiu and did not speak again.
Soon, Mo Yu rushed back, and said happily as he ran this way: "Old man, madam, good news, we don't need to stay overnight, we can board the ship." When he ran to the front, he still gasped for breath on his knees, and then said: "There is a foreign lady in Zhangjiazhen who is also going to get on the boat, and it is delayed during the day, so there is a boat that has been waiting at the dock, and the people who get on the boat first are also waiting, so we can just follow this boat." The slave maid just asked the boatman, and said that there were not many people on the boat, and they could make room. ”
Bai Heran looked very happy, "Great, then let's hurry up and get on the boat, otherwise it will cost a lot of silver to stay overnight, maybe tomorrow will be on the boat again, the boat fare will not be enough." As he spoke, he took out the money bag he carried and carefully counted the few pieces of silver in his pocket, and after counting, he took out a small piece and handed it to Mo Yu, "Go buy some dry food and bring it, you have to pay another silver for food on the ship, it must not be cheap, let's save a little, bring as much dry food as possible to eat for a few days, and then buy it from the ship when there is really nothing to eat later." ”
Mo Yu took the silver and ran to buy dry food, Luo Xiu bent down and carried Jun Mulin behind him, Bai Heran helped him straighten his robe again, and then followed him to the edge of the dock.
After a while, Mo Yu also returned, and some shipwrights saw the dry food that Mo Yu had bought in his hand, and pursed his lips, very dissatisfied......
