Chapter 49: Weakness of Heart
As soon as Hong Xiaoduo's words fell, the donkey cart stopped suddenly, and the big and six small ones in the carriage were all defenseless.
"Tianshu, what's wrong?" Hong Xiaoduo reacted, and quickly opened the front window of the carriage and asked while looking around.
There is nothing unusual around, is it something on the road?
Tianshu chirped: "No, no, not much, it's just that there was a pothole on the road just now, I thought about avoiding it, but it turned out to be ......." ”
So that's what happened, Hong Xiaoduo understood and hurriedly comforted: "Don't blame yourself, this donkey has not been in our hands for a few days, how can you be familiar with it so quickly." ”
"Well, Tianshu knows." Tianshu responded sullenly, with his back to the front window of the carriage, Hong Xiaoduo didn't see his tense little face and melancholy expression.
Hong Xiaoduo heard that his voice was a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, just because he was blaming himself for not catching the car just now.
After closing the front window and sitting down, I quickly asked the children if they had just hit the pain, and the children shook their heads and said no.
After such a distraction, Hong Xiaoduo did not continue the previous topic, but remembered that he was careless, Tianshu was sitting outside in a car, it would be colder than them, and he should buy him a cotton cloak.
When I think about it this way, I feel that there are actually too many things I want to buy, so it costs money, and now I have gold and silver on my body, so I can't buy whatever I want, and the silver is used up?
Is she going to take her seven children and walk the streets and alleys to make a living? Or, set up a stall to earn living expenses?
No, I still have to tell the old man of the science and technology museum, let him find a way, why not use high-tech helpers, isn't that a waste!
The donkey cart swayed along the official road, and Tianshu was so worried that he didn't even notice that a team of people behind the donkey cart followed.
Hong Xiaoduo in the carriage was about the same time, lifted the curtain and looked at it, and made Tianshu stop.
The atlas shows that there should be a mountain in front of this place, because she had encountered the roadblock and robbery before, so she had to be cautious when she encountered this kind of location again.
Do you hurry up and cross this road before it gets dark, or do you wait for the dawn before you set off? Which is safer?
As soon as I thought of this, I found that a group of people parked not far behind him were met during the lunch break, the old man and his guards.
Let's just say why didn't I pay attention to whether they went over or not, it turned out to be in the back!
She was thinking about whether to go over and say hello to the old man, when she saw a guard approach.
"My lord asked the little lady to ask the little lady, is this a pause to rest, or are you planning to spend the night here?" The guards approached and spoke.
Hearing him ask, Hong Xiaoduo thought for a while and said, "I don't know what you adults plan, if you plan to travel overnight, then we will follow behind." ”
The guard was stunned when he heard this, because he didn't know what his lord was planning.
Hurriedly said to wait a while, turned around and went back to the carriage to ask.
The carriage moved, and when he passed by Hong Xiaoduo, the old man in the window said with a smile: "According to the old man's meaning, we have to pass through the mountains and forests in front, so let's not delay a little faster, we can pass the forest section at the end of the hour, and then there will be a post house for about an hour." ”
When? Hong Xiaoduo listened, silently calculated in his heart, this time should be 19 o'clock ~ 21 o'clock in modern times, and the end of the hour is nine o'clock in the evening.
An hour ahead, that is the modern two hours, around eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, you can stop and rest for the night.
"Okay, then follow my husband." Hong Xiaoduo made a decision and responded.
"Well, let's wait a little longer for your donkeys to eat some more forage." The old man said with a smile, while looking at the child who was feeding the donkey to eat grass, I don't know if it is old, and his eyes are not very good, why do you think that the child's eyes are not quite right, and it seems to be a little guarded? Anyway, I just don't look very happy.
No, I was kind enough to take them with me!
Realizing that he was being watched by the old man, Tianshu turned his back to that side with a weak heart.
After a while, Tianshu packed up the hay, and a few small ones also went back to prepare to get on the donkey cart.
"Little lady, since you are walking together, it is better to let a few of them sit on the old man's side, spacious." The old man pointed to a few children who were about to get on the donkey cart and proposed.
Tianquan and the others looked at the spirited carriage, and then looked at Hong Xiaoduo.
"No need, thank you for your kindness, my younger brothers and sisters, too young and stubborn to be in the same carriage as my father, I'm afraid they will make a noise with you." Before Hong Xiaoduo could speak, Tianshu refused loudly.
Well? What's going on, what's wrong with this kid? Don't you worry about this old man? Hong Xiaoduo was a little puzzled.
Similarly, the children also looked at Tianshu in confusion, but when they saw him staring, they were so frightened that they couldn't care about what happened to the eldest brother, and climbed into their own donkey cart.
Hong Xiaoduo apologized to the old man with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, this kid is afraid of those little troubles." ”
The old man glanced at Tianshu again and said with a smile: "It's okay, let's go." With that, he ordered the guards to set off.
Hong Xiaoduo glanced at Tianshu, didn't say anything, raised his feet and entered the carriage, found his baggage, took out his cotton clothes and handed it out to the front window: "It's going to be cold at night, put it on." ”
Tianshu didn't dare to make eye contact with her, and lowered his head and pursed his lips to take it, only to realize that this was not his cotton clothes.
Listening to the sound of the car window closing behind him, he muttered in a low voice: "We will be very obedient and well-behaved, why can't we follow you all the time?" ”
In the carriage, Hong Xiaoduo told the children that they would not stop to rest before arriving at their destination, and if they were hungry, they would eat by themselves.
Hearing her say this, Yaoguang was about to reach for a drawer of the food box, and she remembered very well that it was halva.
However, Tianxuan and Tianji, who were sitting across from her, frowned and shook their heads at her together.
Oh, Yaoguang remembered what the eldest brother had said, that he had to listen to the other brothers and sisters when he wasn't on the side.
If you don't obey, your mother will be angry and won't want them.
"I didn't want to eat it, I just looked at the flowers carved on it, it was so beautiful." Yaoguang said as he used his small hand that had been stretched out to symbolically stroke the food box twice, and quickly took it back.
This scene all fell in Hong Xiaoduo's eyes, and he couldn't help but smile and looked away, poor Xiao Yaoguang, he was not very old and reacted quite quickly.
didn't feel sorry for Yaoguangxiao, so he took it upon himself to open the drawer and let her eat it in her mouth.
One day, the children may still be together, and she tries not to change some of the habits between the seven of them. As the youngest sister, that's to listen to my brother.
The seven children have been together since they were sensible, so Hong Xiaoduo didn't want to give them away for adoption.
But what kind of chance does that have to be?
"Mother, there are many people in the eldest father, and they all carry swords, it's okay." Seeing that Hong Xiaoduo frowned slightly, Tianquan opened his mouth to soothe.
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and nodded, but she was still a little bottomless in her heart.
Although the old man didn't know what kind of official he was, what was he traveling with so many guards? Stylish? Not......
