Chapter 10: The Arduous Journey
Spring is the most beautiful scenery of the year, with flowers in full bloom and green branches sprouting. Many families take advantage of their leisure time to go to the wild for a picnic.
But this does not include Chishui and his party.
At least not all of them.
I saw the second master with his hands behind his back, striding in front, leisurely looking left and right, looking like he had lived up to this great spring.
More than ten meters behind him, followed by a teenager in his teens, carrying a salute on his back, following unhurriedly, seemingly able to keep up with the footsteps of the one in front, if you don't look at his sweaty face and heavy breathing.
Pulling back more than 20 meters behind the mirror, two little girls with bags on their backs supported each other, each holding a wooden stick, and walked forward with difficulty.
That's Miss Four and Chishui.
As soon as he set off, the second master asked Chishui to return the salute that belonged to the fourth lady to her. At that time, Chishui was still a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, the second master must be going to train the fourth lady, so he knew it, so he didn't refuse. Now Chishui is extremely glad of this decision.
Although Miss Four didn't go out much like her, Miss Four was older than her. The four-year-old gap is that the distance between the fourth lady and Chishui is three steps away!
Finally, when Chishui couldn't hold on anymore and wanted to pass out, the old man in front finally squeaked: "Well, the scenery here is good, let's rest here first!" Then in a flash, the man was gone.
Chi Shui mustered the last bit of strength, helped the fourth lady to rush over and sit on a pebble casually, put down the salute, and took a few breaths before turning his eyes to look around, and rolled his eyes hatefully, damn the good scenery, isn't it just a small river, a pile of rocks and a few bushes of reeds? I couldn't even find a few wildflowers. I didn't see him squeak when the scenery was pleasant.
Chi Shui felt that the most bitter time in her life was now, and she was sure that there were blisters on her feet, and there was more than one, and they were already worn out.
She didn't even dare to open her shoes to look at them. What's more, her hands and legs are shaking non-stop, and she has to have that strength!
Her fourth miss looked like she was about to faint, Chishui hurriedly helped her, and when she eased up, she stood up and walked to the river, took a gourd and poured water into it, and came back and handed it to the fourth lady.
After a while, I saw Qin Yu, the third young man of the Qin family, coming back with a large bundle of dead wood branches, walking next to them, putting them down, and then sitting on the side, not speaking, just turning his eyes into the distance, not knowing what he was looking at and thinking.
Chi Shui sometimes really wants to pry his mouth open to see if there is a tongue inside? But after thinking about his identity and thinking about his own identity, he still forgot it.
After a while, the old man came back with a chicken and a rabbit in his hands. He didn't call them, but he went to the river, plucked and cleaned up, set up a shelf, lit a fire, and roasted.
He roasted the chicken first, dressed it on a wooden stick, and put it on the fire, and then, taking out a few small jars from his bosom, he was about to sprinkle them on the chicken, and Chi Shui hurriedly said, "I'll roast it!" After speaking, he hurriedly took over the work in his hands, looking like he would not refuse.
Are you kidding! Although she hadn't made a barbecue before, she had eaten it many times, and she had watched others grill it. Anyway, you have to bake it almost before you put the condiments, why did you sprinkle it in the first place?
The uncle didn't fight with her, but the person moved to the side.
Chishui opened a few small jars, sorted out what condiments were inside, and when the meat was almost roasted, sprinkled them one by one. In her mind, she remembered a barbecue restaurant in the night market in her previous life, and the taste of grilling...... I couldn't help but swallow my saliva and sighed, "It would be better if there was honey." ”
No, the uncle took it out of his arms again, and took out a small jar and handed it over. Chishui opened it and saw that it was a jar of honey.
Chishui Fox glanced suspiciously at his arms, is he Doraemon?
It's easy to do with honey, because there is no brush, Chishui directly grabbed some grass and washed it, bundled together and barely usable, brushed with honey, the smell and fragrance spread out at once, attracting several people to look at her frequently, making Chishui feel a sense of accomplishment.
When the chicken was roasted and handed to them, she put the rabbit on the rack again, and then took a chicken leg they shared, and took a bite, it was delicious! Although I can't catch up with what I have eaten before, but now I have been driving for most of the day, and even steamed buns can be eaten with three points of fragrance.
After the people had finished eating, they rested for a while, and then got up again and hurried away.
They had to get to the town ahead before dark, or they would have to rest in the wilderness. Not to mention whether there are wild beasts or not, the large number of mosquitoes alone makes them very distressed.
Seeing that everyone had the same goal, the second master immediately announced his departure, pointed the way, and the third little man rushed forward desperately as if he had a grudge against that road.
When I arrived at the inn in the town, it was already dark and silent.
asked for three rooms, each went back to the house, Chishui asked the shopkeeper for some white unused cotton cloth, and asked the second child to send some hot water first, and then help buy a few pairs of mille-feuille shoes, give her the size, and then help the young lady back to the house.
You must not wear embroidered shoes tomorrow, that is simply looking for death!
Even Qin Yu only wore one pair of cloth shoes, and also ordered two pairs for him, as for the uncle, it seems that she shouldn't need it, but she can't be specialized, right? The reaction is also to buy, just buy two more pairs.
After the hot water was delivered, Chi Shui specially went to Qin Yu's house to let him soak his feet in hot water, and taught him to massage himself to relieve the pain, after all, he was only a fourteen-year-old boy, and he had suffered this kind of hardship.
After returning to the house, I took care of my little feet with Miss Four. Sure enough, the blisters were worn out, and the socks were sticking together, so it was easy to separate, soaked in hot water, and carefully massaged for a while, before wrapping in white cotton cloth, changing into other shoes, hastily eating some food, and falling asleep on the bed.
Early the next morning, the shopkeeper sent a thousand layer of shoes, although not delicate enough, but better than practical, Chishui hurriedly put on, back and forth a few steps, good, stronger than embroidered shoes! Let Miss Four change it too.
went out of the house and came to the meeting place, and saw that Qin Yu had also changed into it. The second master just swept the shoes they were wearing with his eyes, didn't say anything, ate breakfast, and continued to set off.
