Chapter 15: The Shocking Horse
"And then, what do they want?" Hua Jin asked his brother.
"They said they had a lot of hunting and wanted to borrow our horses and wagons to carry some prey. Sister, what do you think of this? ”
Hua Jin felt that her brother's attitude of not making decisions and discussing with her was very encouraging, and there was no deep-rooted machismo in this era at all.
Compared with himself, an HR manager who has read countless people in his previous life, his thinking still seems to be too simple.
And simple-mindedness is not a good thing for a person who wants to make a name for himself in this world.
"What does my brother want to do?"
"I don't think it's out of the question. We helped the tenants this time, and we were safe to walk with them. After a pause, he said: "And in the long run, in the future, my mother's Zhuangzi can also ask them to help if something happens in the town." ”
So easy to believe that the purpose of that group is so simple?
Hua Jin couldn't help frowning.
"Brother, I just want to ask one question."
"Sister, you ask."
"The road here shouldn't only lead to Anyang Town, how did they know that we were going to Anyang Town?"
There was a brief silence outside the car.
Immediately after that, my brother's honest voice came through the gap in the car curtain, "Sister, this matter was ignored by my brother." I went to tell them that it was inconvenient to go along. ”
Just mentioned the point to understand, Hua Jin bowed slightly in the car.
After the elder brother left, Zhi Tao lowered the curtain, turned around and said, "Fifth girl, those people outside are very rough-looking. ”
As soon as Zhi Tao's voice fell, a man's rough voice came in, "The people in the car have the final say, we are tenants in Anyang Town in the north, and we want to borrow your carriage to load some prey, can it be convenient?" ”
With that, he slammed something down on the side of the carriage.
Talk to her directly now?
Presumably there will be another fuss on her, right?
Hua Jin couldn't help but touch the dagger hidden in his sleeve pocket when he was about to go out, and focused on the outside of the car again.
Zhi Tao hurriedly drilled his head out again, listening to the situation outside.
Hua Jin heard his brother's voice, "I'm really sorry, we still have women and children on this trip, it's not too inconvenient to walk with you, and it will slow down your process." ”
The elder brother's words were already very clear, but the man still didn't intend to give up, "We are just tenants in the neighborhood, and we sincerely ask you for help, but you are pushing back, do you think we are thieves?" There was an irrepressible sadness and indignation in his voice.
Hua Jin raised his eyebrows slightly and clenched the dagger.
Since they are tenants in the town, they all rely on their noble families to eat, why do they have such an arrogant attitude?
And Oleander retracted her head again, "Fifth girl, that person actually brought a white fox that he had just beaten over, saying that he wanted to give you a thank you gift?" The white fox's fur was whiter than the snow on the ground. ”
Thank-you gifts?
Pick what the girls like, and it's a rare white fox that is difficult for professional hunters to hunt?
Hua Jin couldn't help but smile.
"Fifth girl, what should we do?" Bai Tao couldn't help but get nervous, "If they are really tenants in Anyang Town, then we have nothing to blame all the way, it's a big deal to say that they are tenants on their own Zhuangzi to escort us." But if they're thieves...... Later, it was spread out, whether it was the reputation of the fourth young master or the reputation of the fifth girl, all of them were ruined. ”
What Bai Tao said, of course Hua Jin understood.
She couldn't help but put away her smile, and her beautiful and childish eyebrows were a little cold. Leaned over and whispered a few words in Zhi Tao's ear.
After hearing the command, Zhi Tao stretched his head out of the carriage again, and said loudly: "My master said, we don't want this white fox, but I can give you a horse, but the master is a little uncomfortable on the way, and I want to stop here for a while, and I ask you to hurry first." ”
The man outside the car sneered loudly, "The gentleman is frank." We just want to go with you, but we don't want to get you so suspicious and suspicious, so that's it, let's just be rude to the boy and the girl! ”
A gentleman is frank?
Who prepared this rhetoric for him?
At this time, Hua Chen had already ordered his entourage to lead the horse over, "Please lead the horse and hurry early!" ”
But Hua Jin thought that since these people came for a purpose, they would not be sent away so easily.
Suddenly, the man outside the carriage shouted, "Is this horse lame?" ”
Hua Jin secretly screamed badly, and the dagger was held tighter.
I don't know who shouted again: "Arima is shocked!" ”
Suddenly, the carriage accelerated suddenly, and the inertia brought by it caused Hua Jin's body to involuntarily crash towards the side of the curtain, and the dagger in the sleeve pocket also fell out because of the bumps.
With a sharp shout ringing in his ears, the bitter cold wind poured into the carriage unscrupulously.
Hua Jin opened his eyes wide and looked at the curtain of the carriage fluttering in the wind, and the peach who was sitting there just now had already fallen out of the carriage.
"Peach!" Hua Jin and Bai Tao shouted almost at the same time.
They are worried about the safety of the peach, but now they are unable to protect themselves.
Hua Jin tried to hold on to the carriage tightly, but there was nothing to bear on the wool carpet, and her body couldn't help but rush out with gravity like a horse that had taken off the reins, hitting the white peach in front of her.
Fortunately, Bai Tao was prepared, and kicked the raised edge at the bottom of the carriage with his foot, stabilized his body first, and leaned back against Hua Jin.
The carriage was still galloping, and there was no intention of stopping, and Bai Tao's body seemed to be losing its center of gravity little by little......
The oncoming cold wind made Hua Jin sober up a lot, she bent down and grabbed the dagger that fell in the car, and did her best to stick to the frame to fix herself, while her other hand grabbed the white peach that was about to fall out of the car.
The two of them stabilized their bodies for the time being, but the carriage seemed to be far away from the same place, and even the shouts of the elder brother could not be heard clearly.
Will my brother come to his rescue?
But after all, my brother is just a boy raised in the backyard, and he hasn't learned any kung fu......
Thinking of this, Hua Jin only felt that her hands were becoming more and more unable to bear the weight of her and Bai Tao.
"Fifth girl, let go! At most, I fell out alone, and the slave and maid have been used to beating since they were children, so they won't get in the way. ”
Hua Jin listened to Bai Tao's words, and couldn't help but look at her out-of-control body with wide eyes, and then at her slender fingers that were tightly grasping her clothes, feeling as if they were about to break.
But Hua Jin didn't hesitate for a moment, "Bai Tao, hold on." ”
"Five Girls......"
Another huge bump, and the wheels of the carriage seemed to press on a large stone.
Due to the tilt of the body, Hua Jin and Bai Tao both crashed into the car.
