Chapter 146: Where to go
"I didn't expect Mrs. Shi to know Mr. Liu." Xiao Wu is a talkative, he took Shi Jin to buy, and chatting was indispensable on the way.
"I didn't expect to meet Mr. Liu here." Shi Jin sighed a little, there is nothing happier than meeting an old person in a foreign country and still helping their old people.
Shi Jin didn't think about asking Mr. Liu to help him often in the future, but he met him outside, and he was really happy.
"Mr. Liu is very famous, he helped our official master of Haicheng become famous back then, and that official master is a good person." Xiao Wu talked about what happened back then, "The house you first saw, didn't I say that there was a yamen errand in the neighborhood nearby, but he was a hundred convinced of Mr. Liu. ”
Shi Jin drove the carriage and listened to Xiao Wu talk about the previous things, not to mention, from him, he could know a lot about the situation in Haicheng.
"That's right." Shi Jin thought of something, "Where is there a bookseller in Haicheng?" ”
"Shi Niangzi wants to buy books?" Xiao Wu asked.
Shi Jin shook his head, "I want to sell something to him." ”
"Sell something?" Xiao Wu was a little surprised, but he didn't ask much, he thought about it carefully, "Yes, yes, but you also know the current situation, so it's not easy to find." ”
Xiao Wu's mouth is not easy to find, referring to the fact that it is not easy to find a bookseller who can sell things.
"Well, I'll help you inquire about it later, and I'll tell you when the time comes." He said so, and Shi Jin hurriedly thanked him.
After buying the things they needed in the house, the two returned to the house, and it was already evening.
Thanks to Xiao Wu, Shi Jin bought some things and really saved a lot of money.
"Then I'll come back tomorrow to find Mrs. Shi, if you have anything, you can also go to me, I live in Haitao Lane, not far from here." Some of the paperwork has not yet been completed, but because Shi Jin knows Mr. Liu, everything has special exceptions.
Shi Jin wanted to invite Xiao Wu to dinner, so as to thank him for his help, but Xiao Wu refused with a smile.
So, after sending Xiao Wu away, Shi Jin went to Mr. Liu's house to pick up the young lady.
"I live here, and if the two children want to study, they will tell me, it will be more convenient."
Although the school here also recruits female disciples, the conditions are very strict, and with Mr. Liu here, it is not difficult.
"Thank you." Shi Jin thanked him and led the young ladies back to the house.
The house has been cleaned up, but many things bought today will be arranged tomorrow, Shi Jin boiled hot water, led the children to wash up, and lay on the bed together.
After all, she had just moved to a new residence, and the two children still slept next to her to be more stable.
"Mother, when you see your uncle and grandfather, are you about to see your grandmother?" The little girls know the relationship between Mr. Liu and Granny Yan.
"I want to, too." Shi Jin has been outside for a long time, and he has always been worried about those people in the village.
They have been described in the book, but there is no big problem, but because what Shi Jin sees is often different from the situation in the book, he is not sure what the situation of Granny Yan and the others is now?
——
At night, many people who can't enter Kyoto have to take a break outside Kyoto.
The people of Zhaojia Village, whom Shi Jin was thinking about, had settled down not far from Kyoto at this time, and they were discussing where to go next.
No one thought that after paying the money and passing through the checkpoint, they still couldn't enter Kyoto, and the previous money was equivalent to being wasted.
"What's around here?" Granny Yan wrapped herself in a blanket and asked in a low voice.
On the road before, she was sick and almost didn't survive, although she is better now, after all, she has been in a hurry and has no chance to recuperate, so the foundation is still not very good.
If it's cold today, she needs to wear more clothes and use more to avoid getting sick again.
She is old, and if she gets seriously ill again, I'm afraid she will die.
"We can't get in, and I don't know if Jin Niang is inside?" They all knew that when Shi Jin left the town, he followed the Jiang family.
Although they didn't know the Jiang family, they also knew that the Jiang family was very rich and wealthy.
They arrived outside Kyoto, but they were not able to enter it, but they did not leave immediately, but observed it outside the city for some time.
Most of those who were obviously officials and wealthy families could enter the city, and even so, they guessed that the Jiang family was also okay.
Since Shi Jin followed the Jiang family and worked in the Jiang family, he should also be able to enter Kyoto.
"Sooner or later, everyone will be able to enter this Kyoto, as long as the disaster is over, but I don't know when this disaster will end." Granny Yan sighed.
When they came out of Zhaojia Village together, they were a group of people, and now there are not many left.
Some people refused to leave after half of the walk, and some looked for a place to stay, and some turned around and walked back.
Some of them were also sick, but they were not as lucky as Granny Yan, and they didn't get through it.
"Auntie, in your opinion, where should we go?" There have been a lot of things on the road, and Granny Yan is old and often gives some advice, and most of her suggestions are useful.
It can be said that today's Granny Yan is the most reassuring backbone among the remaining people, as long as she is there, everyone can feel a lot more relieved.
"Why don't you go to Haicheng?" There are many places to choose, and Granny Yan thought about it, and suddenly thought of one.
"In the early years, my brother went there and told me that Haicheng is a good place, maybe we can go and see it, and we can get there after walking for a month."
When they left Zhaojia Village, they brought medicinal herbs and food with them, and they kept consuming them along the way, and there was hardly much replenishment.
But fortunately, it took a long time to prepare, so everyone saved it together and persevered.
"Haicheng? Wouldn't it be a little far? Our food can barely support it, but it can only support these days. ”
"If you get to Haicheng, it's the same ...... as Kyoto," the speaker said, worried, and it was not impossible for such a situation to be likely.
"We've come this way, and you've seen how the situation is, those smaller towns are already too busy to take care of themselves. Although Haicheng can't be compared to Kyoto, it is not a bad place in the end. ”
Granny Yan will choose there, and she has thought about it carefully, "In this way, you all think about it, and it's not too late to decide tomorrow." ”
It's too late now, and even if you decide, you won't set off at this time, after all, it's not a trivial matter, and it always doesn't hurt to think about it more.
After Granny Yan finished speaking, she yawned sleepily, and she wrapped the blanket tighter, ready to go to rest.
The others nodded one after another, Yun Niang settled Granny Yan and went back to discuss with her husband, both husband and wife planned to follow Granny Yan, as for how others planned, it could only depend on the individual.
As the night wore on, and everyone huddled together to keep warm, a figure quietly got up and sneaked away......
