Chapter 298
"What is this place?" It was Shen Zaishi who was asking, and he also noticed Shen Mengxi's abnormality, so he asked before Shen Zhixin could speak.
Zhang Shou blinked, feeling very incredible about the degree to which the father and son doted on the little lady in the carriage, but still replied honestly: "We have arrived at the Tiger Cliff, and we will walk some distance out of the Tiger Cliff to the river, we can reach the Yangtze River before dark, and we can cross the river early tomorrow morning......"
Before Zhang Shou could finish complaining, Shen Mengxi opened the curtains regardless of etiquette, looked at Shen Zhixin and said, "Grandfather! Father! Tiger Cliff can't be walked! “
Before Shen Zaishi and Shen Zhixin could speak, Zhang Shou was not happy, "Miss, why can't Tiger Cliff go?" There are hundreds of back and forth along the way, that is, a few days ago, when Fang Lajun was the most ferocious, it was the safest to take this road, as long as he crossed the Yangtze River to Zhenjiang, it was a horse on the official road! “
There are some things that Shen Mengxi can't say in front of so many people, but she believes that with the tacit understanding between Shen Zaishi and her, Shen Zhixin's love for her, as long as she insists on not going to Tiger Cliff, the two of them will definitely agree to her request. So Shen Mengxi didn't say much, just looked at Shen Zaishi directly.
"Grandfather! Let's not go to Tiger Cliff, okay? We can turn to the east and go south to Jiangdu! Or simply turn west and take the canal back to Suzhou by water! ”
Shen Zaishi knew that Shen Mengxi's reluctance to take the Tiger Cliff must be because he felt that the Tiger Cliff was in danger, so he smiled and said to Zhang Shou: "Master Zhang, we don't know if it's feasible to take the waterway now?" ”
"This ...... How can this be done......" Zhang Shouxin said: Aren't you fooling around? Just because a little lady said casually, if you don't take a good land route, you will have to change to a waterway!
"Why not?" Shen Zhixin also turned his head to look at Zhang Shou and asked.
"It's not! It's obviously easy and fast to travel by land, so why do you have to work on that? We have more than a dozen carriages in our line, and we have to hire several ships alone, how can we hire so many ships at once for a while? ”
"According to your previous plan, don't you want to hire a boat to cross the river?" Shen Mengxi asked.
"Oops! My eldest lady! Don't add any more to the mess! Can the ship be the same? It takes three or five days to get to Suzhou by water, and it only takes more than an hour to cross the river! ”
Shen Zaishi frowned and thought for a while: "Then let's go home first, and then take the waterway back to Suzhou after arranging the boat!" ”
Zhang Shou looked at Shen Zaishi in disbelief, he never thought that a gentleman who seemed so shrewd and wise would make such a hasty decision!
"Old lady Shen! Do you understand what you're talking about? Not to mention how much money we have to put in this back and forth, even if our brothers go back, we may not be able to spare the effort to escort you! ”
Shen Zhixin was a little dissatisfied with what Zhang Shou said, although they did not officially invite them to take this dart, but they also gave a reward of one hundred taels, which was more than the price of a serious dart, but this Zhang Shou still looked like "you got a big bargain", and he was not polite at all, which made Shen Zhixin regret accepting Xu Da's kindness!
When the two sides were at a stalemate, a sudden sound of horses' hooves was heard in front, followed by a puff of dust, and a group of men and horses approached them.
