Chapter 152: The Strangeness of the Groom
Tan Qingqing ignored the turbulent dark waves between Shen Meilan and Tao Shan'er.
After she got into the car, she said to Shen Meilan, "Then I didn't prepare snacks." Auntie, when you get to the dim sum selling area, stop for a moment and let me buy it. ”
Shen Meilan glanced at Tan Qingqing quietly, "No." It's been ready for you a long time ago. No, this is perilla cake. In order to prevent your eldest cousin and second cousin from stealing food in advance, I have been hiding it. ”
"Come on, use it. When you get up at the hour, I'm afraid you haven't had breakfast yet, right? Hurry up and pad your stomach. When you get to the Taoist temple, there is no time for you to eat and drink anymore. ”
This early in the morning, instead of eating soy milk fritters, eat these greasy pastries?
Yes.
Tan Qingqing wanted to scream in her heart.
But on the face, she still didn't want to brush Shen Meilan's face, so she took out a purple pastry from the snack plate and ate it in her mouth.
She only chewed twice, and Shen Meilan brought Tan Qingqing a cup of tea.
"Don't choke when you're eating. It's a bumpy road, and be careful of crumbs of pastry falling on you. ”
Tan Qingqing looked at the cup of tea that suddenly came out strangely.
Just now she lifted the curtain of the carriage and entered the carriage, but she didn't see any small coffee tables, small table corners or anything. I didn't see any tea sets. So where did Shen Meilan's cup of tea come from?
Shen Meilan looked at Tan Qingqing, her brows furrowed, and she stared at the cup of tea in her hand with a suspicious look. Shen Meilan condensed for a moment, then smiled dumbly.
"Are you curious where my cup of tea came from?"
Shen Meilan showed the carriage wall cabinet to Tan Qingqing.
"Since we are going to sit in a carriage for a while, of course this carriage will be designed to be more humane. No, this tea set is hidden in the closet. This wall cabinet can be pulled out or retracted. When you pull it out, it's a small right-angled tabletop. Put it back and the little table top will become one with the wall cabinet. It not only saves space, but also makes it convenient to place small things. It is very liked by the nobles of Yuzhou City. ”
Tan Qingqing glanced at the closet. I found that there are many designs that can be used as a table. It can also be set back to save space.
It's really convenient.
Tan Qingqing exclaimed, "The person who can come up with this way to save indoor space is also a skillful hand." I don't know who designed it. ”
"I don't know."
Shen Meilan said, "I only know that this is a horse-drawn carriage style that has recently emerged in Yuzhou City. Many ladies have. I watched them use it and thought I couldn't do without. So he called for someone to find out where he could buy such a carriage. ”
"As soon as I asked, I realized that if you want to save money on a design like this, you can ask a carpenter to modify it. If you don't want to save money and want to do better, you can go directly to Liu's house in the east of the city and customize. ”
"I, Shen Meilan, am the dignified wife of Tao Yangshuo, how can I not use the best? When even let the willow carpenter make a new carriage and send it to Taofu. ”
"Qingqing, this carriage has many wonderful uses. Let your aunt tell you about it. ”
……
Shen Meilan chattered for more than two hours before she was barely thirsty.
Shen Meilan said, Tan Qingqing was weak to respond.
What Shen Meilan said at the beginning, Tan Qingqing still had the strength to respond to Shen Meilan. But in the back, Tan Qingqing really didn't have the leisure to deal with Shen Meilan.
Her aunt is really chattering, and no one can compare to her.
……
Tao Man stared at Tan Qingqing's face becoming tired, and persuaded his mother on the side.
"Alright, mother. You've been saying here that Cousin Qingqing is going to get tired. You'd better let her go and let her have a good rest. After all, if she is tired, she must have many reasons to say that her legs hurt her back, she has a headache and is weak, and she refuses to follow you to pray for blessings. ”
Ahh
was said to be the center, Tan Qingqing's face was slightly annoyed.
Tan Qingqing glared at Tao Manning lightly. That look seems to say, which side of the hell are you? How can I help my own mother and deal with my cousin?
Tao Manning looked at Tan Qingqing and dared to murder her, and Tao Manning also made a grimace at Tan Qingqing. Let Tan Qingqing really have a temper and have no place to vent.
Shen Meilan was reminded by her daughter, and she suddenly realized that Tan Qingqing, a little girl, really wanted to be a ghost, and she was also very ghostly.
He pretended to cough himself," Manning said. You cousin, don't look at her on the surface that the rain is coming, and I don't move. Actually, she has a lot on her mind. If she really finds a chance to escape, a spiritual hidden Taoist temple can't stop her. He will leave us behind and run back to the city by himself. ”
"Qingqing girl, did you say it?"
was serial of "yin and yang weirdness" by Shen Meilan's family, and Tan Qingqing was also very helpless in her heart.
"Auntie, don't call me like a white-eyed wolf. How could I abandon you and go back on my own? There was only one horse that pulled the wagon. If I ride this horse away, how are you going to go back? ”
"It seems that you really thought about it, stinky girl?" Tao Manning scolded with a smile next to him, "Even a few horses pulling the carriage have paid attention. It means that you have a lot of ghost eyes, girl. ”
Tan Qingqing, who was "wronged", said, "The daughter who followed her father's dart is just habitually cautious." Cousin, don't you want to dirty me. ”
Poof.
It's up to them to believe it or not!
They were having fun in the carriage.
Outside the carriage, the groom pulled up the curtain and said to the ladies of the Tao Mansion, "Madam, there is a mountain road ahead. On the side of the mountain road is a cliff about 100 feet high. The road is prone to bumps and some dangers. Madame and ladies beware. ”
Lingyin Taoist Temple Shen Meilan goes every year.
Shen Meilan is also familiar with this route.
Therefore, Shen Meilan said to the horseman, "There are a lot of gravel on this road, and it is indeed easy to bump. You just have to hold your car, we have prepared medicine to prevent vertigo, and it won't delay your drive. ”
Since he had received the order of the lady, the groom did not say much.
He set up the car and continued to walk towards the Taoist temple.
Only, when he turned around and lowered the curtain. Tan Qingqing looked at his palms, and there were thick layers of calluses on his knuckles.
Also, there were several knife wounds on the back of the arm.
The thick calluses on the palms of his hands can be understood as the reason why he grabbed the reins of the horse for a long time. But the knife wound on the back of the arm ......
Tan Qingqing stopped the groom again, "This is a newcomer, right?" When I was in the Tao family's carriage before, it didn't seem to be this person. ”
In Taofu's carriage, although Tan Qingqing has only sat on a handful of times.
But Tan Qingqing will pay more attention to the appearance of this groom.
Sure enough, Shen Meilan's words once again confirmed Tan Qingqing's guess.
