Chapter Seventy-Nine: Return to Zhangye and Set Off for Taiyuan
When I arrived in Zhangye, it was already ten days later, and the heavy rain outside Yiwu City was finally caught up by Chu Mofeng and others, and when I left the valley, it was already the end of noon, and the rolling thunder in the sky was continuous, accompanied by thunder and lightning from time to time, and the originally sultry wind suddenly came with a hint of coolness.
Chu Mofeng sniffled vigorously, felt the moist breath in the air, and shouted to Shi Hanshuang and the others: "Speed up, it's going to rain." As soon as the words fell, the raindrops the size of beans slipped from the sky, and everyone saw that they could not bother to find a place to shelter from the rain, so after taking out their robes and putting them on, they kept urging the horses under their crotches to run forward.
Hurry all the way, and finally arrived at Hami County, everyone was already wet, so they had no choice but to return to the previous inn, ready to repair for one night before leaving.
After coming to the inn, the shopkeeper saw that Chu Mofeng and his party had returned, and hurriedly shouted to Xiao Er: "Didn't you see the guest officer come in? Hurry up and lead the horse to the backyard and feed it." The shopkeeper answered, ran out of the door and led the horse to the backyard.
At this time, the shopkeeper smiled and said to Chu Mofeng: "A few guest officials are really fateful, and they have come to take care of the business of the small shop again." ”
"Hot water...... Bath...... Speed don't talk nonsense. Shi Hanshuang behind Chu Mofeng was already looking like a chicken in soup at this moment, and when he saw the shopkeeper, he was still greeting, so he hurriedly poked his head out and said tremblingly.
When the shopkeeper saw the appearance of Shi Hanshuang and the others, he hurriedly smiled and said: "A few girls, please rest assured, the villain will order to go down and prepare hot water in the bath room for you to use." ”
Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Chu Mofeng hurriedly asked for three guest rooms, and told Shi Hanshuang and the others to take a bath first, while he sat in the lobby and waited quietly.
After about an hour, Shi Hanshuang and the others had finished bathing, changed into dry clothes, and walked into the lobby with Tingting, at this time the heavy rain outside was still like this, seeing Chu Mofeng sitting in the lobby, Shi Hanshuang hurriedly stepped forward and said: "You fool, your clothes are soaked and you are still sitting in the lobby, hurry back to the guest room to change down, I will wash it for you." You go take a bath and get rid of the cold on your body. ”
After speaking, he turned to the shopkeeper and said, "The shopkeeper's trouble is to find a table and prepare a pot of hot tea." Then prepare a few hot dishes, and if it is convenient, prepare a few bowls of ginger soup, and we will dispel the cold. After giving these orders, he pulled Chu Mofeng and walked towards the guest room.
After the two entered the guest room, Shi Hanshuang said to Chu Mofeng with a red face: "Take off your dirty clothes and give it to me, and then you hurry up and take a bath and change into dry clothes, otherwise you will get sick when the cold enters your body." ”
Chu Mofeng nodded, hurriedly took off his soaked clothes, took a set of clean clothes and walked towards the shower. Hearing Chu Mofeng leave, Shi Hanshuang dared to raise his head and put away the dirty clothes on the table, turned around and went downstairs. At this moment, Gu Zhen'er and the others were sitting in the lobby drinking tea, and when they saw Shi Hanshuang appear on the stairs on the second floor, they hurriedly beckoned her down.
After everyone sat down, Liu Feiyan said: "This trip to Yiwu is relatively smooth, according to the plan made by Brother Chu before, the next step should be to return to Zhangye to repair, and after Brother Chu goes to Taiyuan first, we will set off to Taiyuan." I don't care, you can just say what you think. ”
"Well, since Brother Feng has arranged it this way, then we can just do it, but I heard that fighting a war and punishing evil and promoting good are completely two different concepts, and the degree of danger in them cannot be described. I remember when I was a child, there were always people in my hometown who were forced to serve in the military, and at that time, there were wars for many years, and every year there were families who received pensions from the imperial court, and it was terrible to think about it. Gu Zhen'er picked up the teacup in front of her, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said: "My life was also saved by Brother Feng, if it weren't for him, maybe I would have been in a different place now, so I will follow him to Taiyuan." ”
"I will do what Brother Chu says I will do, and my life was also saved by Brother Chu, so I obey him unconditionally, what about you?" Xiao Ruolan looked at Shi Hanshuang and said the truest thoughts in her heart.
"To tell the truth, my father's revenge was avenged by a few of you, but I also said at the time, I have been Brother Chu's person in this life, I used to be a blind weak woman, but after getting acquainted with you, not only my eyes were cured, but I also learned kung fu, and now I have the ability to stand beside Brother Chu and accompany him to charge into battle, so whether I can marry Brother Chu or not, the direction he points to is the direction I am heading, even if ten thousand arrows pierce my heart, I have no regrets." Looking at the lady in front of him, Chen Jingqing didn't know where he got the courage to say what was in his heart.
Shi Hanshuang heard a few girls say what was in their hearts, sighed and said: "Hey, I don't know where this guy got the blessing to make the four of you follow him so desperately, in fact, the same is true for me and Zi Yao, maybe because he is sincere to people and willing to help others, it is because of this that Zi Yao and I will marry him." ”
Shi Hanshuang picked up the teapot and gave Liu Feiyan and the others a circle of tea, and then said slowly: "He once told me that when he went to Taiyuan in the future, the flowers on the other side would be handed over to me. ”
After speaking, he stretched the teacup forward and said, "I will toast you with tea instead of wine." Liu Feiyan and the others listened to Shi Hanshuang's words, hurriedly raised the teacup, and everyone drank the cup of tea in unison, looking at each other and laughing.
At this time, Chu Mofeng had already finished bathing, and after returning to the lobby, he came to the place where Shi Hanshuang and the others were seated, and after sitting down, he stretched out for a long time, and shouted to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, please serve the food, and bring the ginger soup by the way." ”
Hearing Chu Mofeng's greeting, the shopkeeper hurriedly responded, and then turned around to the back kitchen to urge the vegetables, the rain outside the window was still falling without scruples, Chu Mofeng looked at the sky, and said with sorrow: "If it keeps raining like this, then our next trip will be delayed, I hope we don't delay things because of this heavy rain." ”
Hearing Chu Mofeng say this, Shi Hanshuang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, everything just goes naturally, isn't it?"
Hearing Shi Hanshuang comforting himself, Chu Mofeng nodded, at this time, the shopkeeper had already brought the food, everyone was already hungry after a busy day, and hurriedly started to move without reason, and the meal was eaten for nearly two hours before it was over, during which the shopkeeper also added three dishes, and everyone touched their round stomachs, paced to the second floor regardless of the image, and each went back to the guest room to rest.
In the early morning of the second day, Chu Mofeng, who had already woken up, found that a ray of sunlight floated in through the crack in the window, and he hurriedly pushed open the window with great joy in his heart, and suddenly a fresh air rushed to his face, and the heavy rain seemed to have stopped at night, looking at the bustling crowd on the street downstairs, Chu Mofeng hurriedly woke up Shi Hanshuang and told her to prepare for the journey.
After everyone got up one after another, they found that it was already a sunny day outside the window, so they hurriedly changed their clothes and washed, and then came to the backyard en masse, rode their horses and ran in the direction of Zhangye.
After returning to Zhangye, Liu Feiyan and the others returned to the mansion first, while Chu Mofeng came to the Rende Medical Center, and after not seeing the second lady of his family for a long time, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but miss it a little, so he hurriedly ran over, hoping to see Mo Ziyao for the first time.
When he came to the Rende Medical Center, he found that there were only two guys cleaning in the hall, and Chu Mofeng hurriedly asked, "Where is Dr. Mo in your hall?"
One of the guys recognized the person as Chu Mofeng, and said: "Master Chu, you came just in time, Dr. Mo received a letter from her master's nest a few days ago, inviting her to go to Taiyuan to teach medicine. ”
Chu Mofeng nodded and motioned for the guy to continue, only to hear the guy say: "Doctor Mo said that she went to Taiyuan first, and she will wait for you and Miss Shi Hanshuang to come in Taiyuan at that time." ”
After listening to the words of this guy, Chu Mofeng hugged his fist at him and said, "Thank you, the affairs in the hall are handed over to you for the time being, and tomorrow I will implore Master Rakshasa to come over and continue to sit in the hall, so as not to delay the consultation of our fellow villagers." ”
After coming out of the Rende Medical Hall, Chu Mofeng went to Yanyu Building first, reported the trip to Qingli and the others, and then asked Rakshasa to continue to go to the medical hall with a sad face, and was inevitably teased by Rakshasa during the period. After saying goodbye to Qingli and the others, Chu Mofeng returned to his mansion non-stop, ready to tell Shi Hanshuang about Mo Ziyao.
As soon as I entered the door, I found a lot of clothes drying in the second cross courtyard, a few of which I felt very familiar, and I was about to walk to the third cross courtyard, only to see Shi Hanshuang, Liu Feiyan and Gu Zhen'er each walking over with a basin of clothes in their hands, and after skillfully drying the clothes, they walked towards the third cross courtyard without looking back.
Seeing this, Chu Mofeng hurriedly chased after him, grabbed Shi Hanshuang and said, "Daughter-in-law, what are you doing here?"
"Clean up, Qinqing and Ruolan led Mu Mu to clean up in the house. I haven't been back for a few days, and I have indeed accumulated some dust at home, so how can I live without cleaning. Shi Hanshuang looked at Chu Mofeng with a puzzled expression, as if he knew what he was going to ask himself, and then said: "I know what you want to say, Ziyao went to Taiyuan, let's rest at home for a few days, and then set off for Taiyuan in batches according to your plan." ”
Seeing that Shi Hanshuang already knew about Mo Ziyao, Chu Mofeng suddenly thought that since Ziyao had left with Zhaozhao, Mu Mu must know where they were, so it was not surprising that Shi Hanshuang knew one step earlier than himself, thinking of this, Chu Mofeng returned to his house with a smile.
After polishing his weapons, Chu Mofeng took out the armor again, wiped it carefully, and then put it into a large wooden box together with a change of clothes and gold and silver, and after finishing the preparations, Chu Mofeng calmed down and rested with Shi Hanshuang and the others for three days.
In the early morning of the fourth day, Chu Mofeng hired a carriage, put the wooden box away, and said to Shi Hanshuang, who came to see him off: "This time I will go to Taiyuan first, and after I arrive safely, I will immediately fly the pigeon and pass the book back, and a few of you will move after receiving the letter, and prepare the preparations, it is estimated that we will stay in Taiyuan for a long time this time." ”
Shi Hanshuang nodded and said, "Pay attention to safety on the road, meet Ziyao first when you arrive, and be careful in everything." ”
Chu Mofeng smiled at Shi Hanshuang, then whipped the horse's back, and the carriage slowly drove towards the east city gate......
