"You should be careful behind the scenes and try to make their journey as smooth as possible. Master said that there will be people waiting for you when you get to the pass. If you get them to the pass safely, you will be credited with a great contribution."
Huzi smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, you have no merit. You are the benefactor of the second young master. If you are not the master's benefactor, then you are also our benefactor. Send them away safely. It is appropriate."
Shopkeeper Zhao also smiled and looked at him with joy in his eyes, "That's right. It's best if you understand. I guess we won't be here for long. I will suggest to the master that you go to a good place."
Huzi's face straightened, "Shopkeeper, I will follow you. I will go wherever you go."
Shopkeeper Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, I will take you wherever I go. Go back and rest quickly. You have to rush early tomorrow morning."
Huzi grinned, and walked out of the room with a naive smile as if he was satisfied.
Shopkeeper Zhao shook his head and laughed, picked up the tea and took a sip, then continued to hold the pen and bury his head.
Before five o'clock the next morning, the team was already ready to go.
Qi Kang'an changed her look again today, a little,,,uh,,,fat.
He was wrapped in a thick cotton coat and had a silver fox fur scarf around his neck, which was said to be a gift from shopkeeper Zhao.
This is not the point. The point is that his belly seems to be much bigger today than yesterday.
It's just that winter cotton-padded clothes make you look fatter when you wear them. If you don't pay attention, you just think that the waistband of his pants is not too tight.
Qi Kang'an patted his chest gently and said in a breathy voice: "Bao, we are aggrieved. There are outsiders following us on the road."
Dad is reluctant to stuff you into a sack and walk all the way.
Gao Dayou shouted in the courtyard: "Brother An, when will those people come? We are all ready."
Why are you so procrastinating and returning it to the official family? In the past, they used to have yamen officials in Canaan City to do things. Several times when troubles happened in nearby villages in the middle of the night, the yamen officials rushed away in the dark.
Alas, this man is really incomparable.
Huzi poked his head out of the kitchen. He had been getting along with him for two days, and he spoke with ease and proficiency: "We don't care when they come. Anyway, we will leave when we are ready. If they don't come, we will be surprised/weird by then."
Not us."
Erniu passed by Qi Kang'an carrying a long stick, looked at Qi Kang'an's bulging face, and smiled knowingly.
Yes, his daughter is also wrapped in his wife's cotton-padded jacket.
He would also like to wrap his daughter around him like Brother An, but his daughter is too small and she cries when she is hungry or defecates, so he can only put her in his wife's arms and gag her if anything goes wrong.
After a good and peaceful sleep last night, the women were all energetic, and all three of them gathered together and murmured quietly.
Which family doesn't have a little baby? Everyone is worried about their own baby.
The boss's wife said: "I heard from Mr. An that we still have three days to go, and we have to pass two places where soldiers are stationed in the middle. Are the children not allowed to hide in sacks for three days?"
The mother-in-law of the Xi family said: "We have all received cotton-padded clothes. There is nothing for the children to hide in the sacks. Wrapped in sacks, they can also protect themselves from the wind and snow. But we have to cross a place where there are many soldiers. I am really scared."
They were already at war with each other.
Aunt Nan said: "Let's just remember not to talk. The children have also told us not to say anything when anything happens and just follow along. We are stupid and don't understand anything. Don't talk and don't yell and drag your legs."
become."
The Bei family's daughter-in-law nodded in agreement, "Isn't this how we have been here all the way? We have a lucky baby, who can bring good fortune in times of adversity."
More and more people agree with this. If you think about it, no matter what obstacles you encounter along the way, Aunt Bao/Aunt Bao will have good luck, and they will also be blessed.
Qi Kang'an went to see Yinzai specially, but it still couldn't show up. However, Qi Yue's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sewed a large sack for it last night. This time, it didn't have to be wrapped in a sheet and had to worry about the wind blowing open the edges and revealing its contents.
Shopkeeper Zhao specially found Qi Kang'an for Yinzai early in the morning. Yinzai was too eye-catching. Such a big silver wolf was considered a treasure in the eyes of the upper class.
In the past, the people around them were all refugees, and Yin Zai could only scare them. When passing by the garrison, Yin Zai couldn't scare people in the face of interests.
Qi Bao'er poked his head out of Qi Kangan's collar, and the father and daughter stood in strange shapes beside the trolley carrying the silver. The silver's head was still exposed and not put on.
"Now, you either go back to the mountains after leaving the city, and I don't want you as a mount. You heard what Shopkeeper Zhao said in the house this morning. Even if you leave Yingzhou, you still have a look.
Either you just be obedient in the car, Uncle Lianba and Uncle Dayou will push you away, and if anything happens, just say hello to them."
Yinzi didn't say a word, and remained as motionless as if he was lying on his back, expressing his choice with his actions.
Waiba and Gao Dayou, who were beside the car, both promised, "Brother An, Bao'er, don't worry, we will never leave Yinzai's side."
Yinzi has become one of them along the way, and they are all accustomed to him leading the way majestically at the front of the team.
They were reluctant to let it go.
Well, that's it.
Qi Baoer hid her head back under the fox scarf her father wore. The long and wide fox scarf her father seemed to have put on casually, just blocked her head and could not be seen from the outside.
She would only think that her father's behavior was nondescript.
The tiger in front led the horse out and said, "Let's set off."
Praying for the old man and praying for good health, praying for good fortune also leads the horse and follows behind.
Qi Kang'an hurried over, Qi Kangfu handed Fengchi to him, and went to the old man Qi himself. Today he left with his father, the second brother with his mother, and the eldest brother naturally took Bao'er with him.
There are also several horses in the team that protects the food at the inn, and of course there are also many people walking carts on their legs.
Those who mounted their horses mounted their horses, and those who pushed the cart pushed the cart. With Huzi leading the group, the large group slowly began to leave the backyard of the inn.
Shopkeeper Zhao stood in a room on the third floor, looked down, and murmured:
"It must go smoothly."
-
They expected that the people from the government and the team would arrive too late and couldn't keep up. When they arrived at the gate of the city, a team of twenty people wearing military uniforms and riding tall horses were already waiting there.
Huzi shouted over there: "Brother Wei, are you with the team today?"
The man called Wei Ge was a rough man with a beard and a loud voice that could be heard from the back of the team.
"No, if you want to say it, you have to say that we are destined. Last time I was the one with the team, and this time it will be me too."
Hu Zima walked forward without stopping, while continuing to shout: "It's fate, I wasn't the one who came this time. I only took care of the trouble of the person who came."
"Oh, what a coincidence, otherwise we wouldn't be able to meet each other."
Huzi had already arrived at the city gate, and he continued to head out of the city without stopping. The soldiers guarding the city gate obviously knew that he was delivering food and did not stop him.
Wei Ge rode his horse and followed directly.
Other soldiers followed one after another at a distance. When the large team left the city, the right soldiers surrounded the food transport team from the front, rear, left and right.
