Chapter 68: On the Way

With Wang Mazi's shout, the carriage began to run.

This time it wasn't as fast as it was in the city, it was obviously much faster.

Although there were bumps, it walked very steadily.

As Gu Wenxuan said.

Wang Mazi is not only skilled in driving, but also impulsive and competitive.

He was not far away, and he was on his way to the carriages of the dart board.

Further back, you can see that several carriages of the Zhao family are also planted with penang flags.

There is no end in sight behind it, and the location is quite well chosen.

The carriage is not wide, but it is quite spacious for only two people.

Sitting on a thick mattress, Gu Wenxuan talked softly next to Zhou Banxia.

It wasn't a confidential topic, it was nothing more than that when he was waiting before, he got the exact itinerary from Yun Chengming.

During the day today, in addition to stopping and repairing the horses, mules and donkeys on the way, the convoy was to enter the gate of Linxian County before the dusk drum sounded at one watch or three o'clock.

First, some of the people or goods in the convoy do not go to Fucheng, but arrive directly in Linxian County, and deliver them before closing the city gate to avoid unnecessary trouble.

In addition, it has been determined to stay for two nights in Linxian, and on the third day, we will also set off for Fucheng in the morning.

Tonight and tomorrow night, you can stay at the big car shop next to the dart board.

You can also go to the guest house or a relative's house, as long as you meet on time the morning after tomorrow, it is outdated.

This is also why he chose Wang Mazi's carriage from the beginning.

If you want to change to a horse-drawn carriage shared by the dart board, the cost is low, but the movement is definitely limited.

In his memory, every time he came and went to Fucheng, he was stared at by the darts of the escort team.

What's more, the dart head of this trip is still Yun Mingcheng, and he must be worried about the safety of his two people to follow.

“…… So-" Gu Wenxuan pointed in the direction of Wang Mazi, who was catching the train outside the carriage, "With him here, Brother Yun is very relieved." ”

That's what it means to be gracious.

Zhou Banxia understood what he meant.

If you can, I really don't want to cause trouble to people, but it's a pity that there is a dart bureau in the county.

As for how to take action in Linxian County, the two had discussed it privately last night.

At this time, there is no need to discuss again, and the tacit agreement is not to mention the purchase of grain.

And then consider the road conditions of this era.

The official road near the city is better, spacious enough and flat enough, but the distance is not good, and the road surface is full of potholes.

No matter how good the driving skills are, the limited road conditions will be more bumpy, and the two of them will hurry up to make up for sleep.

This sleep, in a daze, felt as if the carriage had stopped.

Zhou Banxia was still a little stunned when he was woken up by Gu Wenxuan, what is the tea liao in front of him?

It is inconvenient for the female dependents to go out.

Like going to the toilet.

Lift the curtains.

The sky was overcast.

I just don't know what time it is, so I secretly took out the electronic alarm clock and looked at it.

She slept until two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost three o'clock.

When I got out of the carriage, I saw that there was a tea house in front of me, and about three or five women were going in one direction shyly, and Zhou Banxia hurriedly followed.

At this time, she knew that there were only two women in the entire convoy, and there were women who had more than one slap or went directly to Linxian.

The convoy did not have much time to repair, and there were so many people that the tea house was too busy to serve baked cakes and porridge, as well as hot soup.

Of course, even if they are busy, very few people order food and eat and drink.

Outside of going out, you can eat without eating halfway to the tea house, and you generally don't use it indiscriminately.

Like the dart head of the dart board, the martial artist and the porter, they basically bring their own dry food, and even bring their own forage unless necessary.

Unless the distance is far away and the dry food is not enough, for the sake of safety, it is also divided into two batches to eat.

At this point, before going out, not only Gu Yangqing and his wife, but even Gu Erzhu gave a thousand instructions before returning to the village.

Don't look at the stability of the world now, and it's a dart game.

Even if you can suppress the rooster and dog thief, you must beware of those who want to profit and do evil.

Zhou Banxia came out and returned to the carriage, and saw that Gu Wenxuan had already used the red clay stove in the carriage to heat up the baked cakes and braised pork.

With Wang Mazi's share, the three of them just finished eating.

After taking a few sips of boiling water from the pot, the team set off immediately.

"It's coming soon, it won't take an hour to arrive."

This time, there is no need to ask Wang Mazi to ask, Gu Wenxuan can also figure out from his memory how far away from Linxian is still there.

After a sleep, the two of them were full of vitality again, sneaking you to take a sip of tea, and I also took a sip of tea, and the topic turned to horses.

No matter what the era, men's love for cars has remained the same.

Speaking of horses, Gu Wenxuan was excited.

I heard Lao Wang mention that a horse costs at least twenty taels of silver.

A dark horse like him spent twenty-six taels of silver when he bought it a few years ago.

It's easy to understand.

Just like a modern car, 100,000 is a car, millions, or even tens of millions are cars.

Lao Wang's dark horse is not bad, even if it costs almost forty taels of silver to match the carriage and so on, it is not expensive, but he just went out and turned around to bring home a carriage?

Definitely not.

It's too ostentatious.

It's just that considering that when you go out and want to buy food and shop privately, no matter whose carriage you rent, it is not suitable, and it is not conducive to covering up without self-driving transportation.

For a while, Zhou Banxia, who had almost made jokes and couldn't tell the difference between a horse and a mule, said that it was inappropriate for the cow to be filed in the yamen, "Why don't you buy a mule or a donkey first?" ”

"Where are you hiding?"

Gu Wenxuan learned from hers and laughed softly in her ear.

"I don't want the living room to be full of donkey dung. It's a pity that the gate can't be opened, otherwise not to mention the backyard, even the front yard is -"

"Wait."

Zhou Banxia was so shocked by the sudden scene in his mind that he closed his eyes again, opened his eyes and blinked.

Gu Wenxuan's heart moved, "What did you see?" ”

"......" Zhou Banxia didn't know how to answer for a while, subconsciously looked at the car curtain, retracted his head, and pulled down Gu Wenxuan's earlobe.

"Don't be nervous, be quiet, you can't hear it outside, you just can't go in suddenly.

I was careless, I had a chance to test it out yesterday afternoon. ”

What to test?

Naturally, when you enter the villa from the running carriage and come out again, whether the place where you enter is still the same, not whether the carriage runs away and the people are still in the same place.

Zhou Banxia himself was negligent in this, otherwise he would not wait for yesterday, as long as he borrowed an ox cart to test the results at any time before, it can only be said that he still did not think it through.

But now it's not a question of whether it's okay?

Zhou Banxia, whose thinking was almost deviated again, frowned and closed his eyes, "It's strange, I'm 100% sure that I definitely didn't see our front yard last night." ”

"Front yard?"

"Don't interrupt, let me think about it first. You went in for a while last night, and I went in, but I definitely didn't touch the door, what about you? ”

"You're trying to ask if I touched the door?"

Gu Wenxuan found that he almost couldn't keep up with his daughter-in-law's brain power again, "Yes, but I still haven't opened it-"

"What did you think about at the time?"
