Chapter 30: After a delay of sixteen days, who dares to pick you up!
Di Baotian couldn't figure out what he meant, so he had to continue to accompany the smiling face and said, "It should be, it should be!" If there is any work in the future, just ask! ”
Zhang Daqiang had a smile on his face, but there was a trace of disdain in his eyes: "Okay!" Push the cart on! With that, he untied the rope from his arm.
When the group left Gantang County, Zhang Daqiang did not take them on the official road, but on the small road. In the evening, they didn't find a post station to rest, so they casually found a ruined temple to live in.
Zhang Daqiang untied the ropes of the wanderers and distributed the dry food received by the post station to the wanderers. And let the wanderers find some dry branches and make a fire.
Sang Luo asked with some curiosity: "Didn't you say that when you arrive in Gantang County, you will hand us over for the dismissed soldiers?" ”
"After a delay of sixteen days in Xianhe County, there are still twenty-nine days left, two thousand two hundred miles, who dares to pick you up!" Zhang Daqiang was also helpless.
"Isn't this a special case? The imperial court should be able to understand! "Sang Luo always felt that something was wrong.
"There are some things you don't understand." Zhang Daqiang said perfunctorily.
There are two forms of escort exile, one is a long release and the other is a short release.
Chang Xie is generally the main prisoner in the major case in Beijing, and he has to wear shackles or other torture instruments. The military department sent people from the capital all the way to the place of exile.
The short-term solution is to send two people to escort the exiles, go through the handover procedures at the next place, and send two more people from the state and county they pass through to the next state and county. If you verify your identity, there is no problem, and you can sign and forward. Implicated exiles like Sanglu don't need to wear shackles or anything often, just lock them up to prevent them from escaping when they are resting in the wilderness.
But it has been 21 days since Sangluo arrived in Gantang County on the day of their departure, and Gantang County didn't want to pick it up, and he didn't dare to pick it up! The pressure came to Zhang Daqiang and the two of them.
Zhang Daqiang originally planned to directly escort the exiles to Osaki, so he negotiated some conditions. But he asked Gantang County for double the silver subsidy, as well as double the grain, and asked for a small cart to load the food and daily necessities.
The reason why he took the trail was also to save time and distance, and he tried to reach Osaki within the stipulated time.
Although there is a provision in the imperial court that people can stop for treatment when they are sick, it is just a dead letter, who cares why you are delayed. Before the allotted time arrived, the discharged soldiers had to be punished with sticks.
Sang Luo knew that Zhang Daqiang didn't want to explain to him, so she didn't ask much.
"This nest is too dry, I'll go outside and see if I can find some wild fruits and vegetables or something." Sanluo took a vegetable basket and a water bag and got up and left.
"Mother, I'll go with you!" Lu Shiyu hurriedly chased outside the broken temple.
"Don't! I actually wanted to go for convenience and found a reason! Sang Luo hurriedly lowered his voice and said.
Lu Shiyu smiled a little embarrassedly: "Oh! That...... Mother, you have to be careful! ”
"Got it, got it, go back!" Sang Luo took the vegetable basket and left.
After walking out of the ruined temple for a while, I made sure that there was no one around, so I entered the space.
She took a large handful of cabbage and two large turnips, washed them, put them in the basket, and then fetched a bag of water.
When he returned to the ruined temple, his face was full of joy and said, "It was really good luck that I found some cabbage and two large turnips." Cook it and eat it! It's too dry to just eat the nest. ”
Lu Meijian saw a face full of surprise: "Mother, great!" ”
Some time ago, she volunteered in Xianhe and has been eating well! Today's food suddenly became a nest, which is really a bit uncomfortable.
Zhang Daqiang also ate dry nests, and watched Sang Luo come in with some vegetables, and couldn't help but blush. This Sang Po Niang's luck is really good, is it possible that there are still people growing vegetables near this broken temple?
Unlikely! If you don't have a village or a store in the back, who will grow vegetables here?
"Mrs. Sang, where did you pick this dish?" A thin, yellow-faced young woman asked.
Sang Luo was stunned for a moment, she couldn't tell her that this was taken out of the space! But if you don't say it, it will make people misunderstand that you won't tell her.
"Oh! Just behind the temple, it is probably the monks who used to live in the temple to grow vegetables around and later propagate on their own. Sang Luo had to reply casually.
"Then I'll look for it too!" The woman got up quickly, and then several women got up to look for vegetables.
Zhang Daqiang hurriedly said: "Don't let me go far, if anyone dares to escape, catch your leg and break it!" ”
"No, don't worry! Let's go look for some wild vegetables to eat. ”
And the women went out.
Sang Luo walked up to Zhang Daqiang and said, "Zhang Daqiang, you should eat cabbage and radish when you are sick." I just have it here, why don't you lend me your pot? ”
Zhang Daqiang smiled slightly: "Okay!" Give money! He remembered clearly that she helped him with acupuncture seven times and received him seven taels of silver.
"Zhang Daqiang, why can't you get along with your body? Your joints don't hurt now, but if you keep eating dry food and not vegetables, you will soon have a seizure again. ”
There was a pot in the space, but she didn't find a good reason to take the pot out of the space.
"Really?" Qiang Qiang looked at Sang Luo in disbelief.
"Of course it's true, I don't lie to you. Now you're on the way to exile, and if it hurts really and I don't have any medicine, I can't help you! So? You still have to pay attention! Sanroku continued to convince him.
Zhang Daqiang laughed: "Okay! You take it and use it, and divide half of the cooked food with me. ”
Sang Luo hurriedly thanked: "Thank you!" ”
Sang Luo took the pot, and Bai Shi hurriedly took it and said, "Mother, you come here with me!" ”
"Good! Here you go! ”
Sang Luo didn't shirk either, because in the memory of the original owner, the daughter-in-law's cooking skills here are quite good, and any ingredient can be turned into a delicacy in her hands.
It's just a pity that there is no seasoning in this wilderness, and it is estimated that it is difficult to make it delicious. Whatever! There is a green vegetable soup to drink, and it is better than just gnawing on the dry nest.
Sang Luo didn't care about how the Bai family cooked, but took a very shallow medical book from the baggage and handed it to Lu Yuejian.
"See you in the moon, read this book first, and ask your mother if you don't understand something."
With a hint of surprise in her eyes, Yuejian asked, "Mother, where did you get this book?" ”
Of course it was taken from the bookshelf of the space, but she couldn't say!
"Dr. Cheng gave me this book is an introductory book, and he can't use it. I heard that you wanted to study medicine, so you gave it to me. Sang Luo smiled, "He also gave me a set of silver needles!" ”
The silver needle was indeed given to her by Cheng Zhixin, who was borrowed for Zhang Daqiang's acupuncture, and before leaving, she went to return the needle, and Dr. Cheng directly gave her the needle, saying that they would fight the epidemic together for more than half a month to keep a souvenir.
Tsukimi stopped talking, and began to read by the light of the fire.
After a while, the women who had gone out to look for vegetables came back and glanced at Sang Luo with some dissatisfaction.
"The Lu family, are you lying to us, why didn't we see a single vegetable when we went to the back?" A square-faced woman asked.
