The official roads in the suburbs of Beijing are not only wide, but also flat, so the carriage does not bump at all when running.
Because it was a cloudy day, the light in the car was very dark, so I simply opened the car curtain so that the children could look outside.
Sisters Li Yue and Li Yue were okay, but Sister Xuan kept running towards the car window. Lian made fun of her daughter and said she was ambitious, but the little one didn't understand it at all and grinned with two sesame teeth.
The journey was swaying all the way, and it started to rain just as we were about to enter Fengxia Town.
Without giving anyone a chance to react, the raindrops hit the roof of the car, making a "crackling" sound.
Li Yue and Li Tian hurriedly pulled up and buckled the baffles on both sides of the car windows, and the car suddenly became dark. Sister Xuan was a little unhappy when she couldn't see the outside, and she pursed her lips to express her emotions.
"It's raining a lot."
As soon as Lian finished speaking, the driver's reminder to "sit tight" came from outside. The carriage suddenly accelerated. Cheng Xue hugged the swaying Li Tian and held on to the railings in the car to steady her body.
"Tangtang, hurry up."
"Don't worry, mother, I'm fine." After Li Yue said that, he didn't forget to help Lian with Sister Xuan.
The sudden change made Sister Xuan, who was already unhappy, burst into tears. No matter how hard Lian tried to "touch her fur, it wouldn't scare her away", it was no use, so she started howling at the top of her lungs.
Crying, rain, coaxing...
After a lot of chaos, the carriage finally slowed down and it looked like it was about to enter the city.
Sister Xuan cried so hard that she hiccupped and twitched. She was frightened and crying. The child was hungry and sleepy, but the wet nurse was not here. She happened to be checking the directions at the moment, so they all rushed together. p>
Seeing the thin sweat on Lian's forehead, Cheng Xue reached out to pick up the child, carefully fed him water, and said:
"Let the wet nurse take this car tomorrow. When I go back, I can't let them separate. Tangtang and Tiantian will sit with you two."
"Sister-in-law..."
"That's it." Cheng Xue interrupted her, "I know your good intentions. It's okay for the sisters to be here, but I don't need them."
Although the Li family's carriage was spacious, because they were traveling in a hurry and traveling lightly, the carriage was packed with a lot of things, making it very crowded. Seeing this, Mrs. Lian couldn't ignore it, so she invited them to sit here.
Cheng Xue appreciates it, but given the actual situation, we have to consider it.
Seeing that she insisted on doing this, Mrs. Lian had no choice but to nod.
"Okay, I'll listen to my sister-in-law."
After finally coaxing Sister Xuan, the carriage finally arrived at the inn. It was raining heavily, so Bai Shao and others came to pick her up under umbrellas, but their backs were still wet when they entered the house.
"Madam, I have found all the clothes. I will help you change them."
Bai Wei said as she brought the clothes over. Cheng Xue was worried about the child and sent Bai Shao over to take a look. Just after changing clothes, Ging Guo came in with the red date and ginger soup that had just been cooked.
"Madam, have a sip of ginger soup, I'm taking Brother Tiandong out to find medicine."
"Have you drunk?"
"Don't worry, Madam, I've cooked a pot for everyone." Bai Guo replied, "The eldest young master and young master Xin finished drinking and went to the stable."
The two children have developed a habit with Wen Tian for a long time. Every time they go to a place, they check it first, safety first.
Cheng Xue took the soup bowl because she was dry and blew it while drinking.
The inn gave them the entire second floor, and arranged a first-class room. The room was not small, with an area of more than forty square meters, and was divided into two rooms, inside and outside. Cabinets, boxes, and tables were all available, and it was more than enough for two people to live in.<
/p>
Bai Wei changed the bedding she brought, came over, curtsied and said:
"Madam, you can go to bed and rest."
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard something coming from outside——
"Second young master, please don't get wet in the rain. Be obedient and come back quickly. Don't run away."
"Oh, it's okay. I've already drank two bowls of ginger soup. I'm not afraid."
"That's not possible. We are on our way. You can't get sick."
Bai Zhi said while trying to hold an umbrella for him, but the little guy was obviously out of control, especially after jumping into a puddle.
Cheng Xue, who was standing on the second floor and looking down, was dumbfounded. She didn’t blame anyone for this, only herself. It was all the result of her connivance.
"Ging Guo, go quickly, he listens to you, get him back quickly."
Forget about normal times, this period of time is definitely not going to work. We are on the road and no one can get sick.
Bai Wei stretched her neck and took a look, worriedly asking:
"Madam, it's raining so hard, do you still have to go on the road tomorrow?"
"It depends on the situation. If you can stop at night, you can leave tomorrow. If you don't stop, you can only rest here. Go find Bai Shao and ask her to go downstairs and ask if she can cook for herself. If she can, let her make hot soup noodles.
Everyone is sweating after eating, so don’t catch a cold."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
Cheng Xue looked worriedly into the distance and pursed her lips.
The rain has not slowed down. If it continues in this pattern, even if the official road is fine, the low-lying areas will still have water. It will become more and more troublesome. Logically speaking, we cannot delay it for a day, but God just joins in the fun.
Seeing Bai Guo coaxing Li Huai back, she adjusted her mood and went to Li Heng's room. Opening the cabinet, she found the clothes of the three brothers wrapped up and lying side by side in it. Li Huai likes to appreciate the color of bamboo, so the furoshiki he uses to store his clothes is particularly easy to spot.
.Find out a pair of dry clothes and sit on the bed.
"Mom, do you want to help me change my clothes?"
Seeing the little guy's excitement, Cheng Xue quickly wiped his head with a sweat towel.
"Baizhi, go downstairs and ask if there is a charcoal stove. The bed is too damp."
"Yes, ma'am."
Cheng Xue wiped Li Huai as quickly as possible, then put on his clothes and said:
"If you want to play in the water, I'll let you enjoy it when you get home. Let's go to the river. Be obedient and don't cause trouble during these days, okay?"
"Well, okay. Mom, can I go play with Aunt Zhou's sister later?"
"Okay, change your clothes and go."
"Can I have some hot noodle soup tonight? I want to eat cold noodles, but I will sweat after eating the noodle soup."
Obviously, the following words are his purpose.
Cheng Xue pinched the bridge of his nose gently, shook her head with a smile, and said:
"I'll make noodles for you when the weather clears up. Today I have to eat noodles with soup, just to make you sweat and detoxify."
"...Okay. Then add more sugar and vinegar to the noodles."
"Got it."
Cheng Xue dressed him while talking, looking at the child's cooperative little appearance, and felt convinced. In the blink of an eye, he had grown up and knew how to negotiate terms. He still remembered that when he first came here, he couldn't even sit down, and his life was really hard.
Fast.
After changing their clothes, the two of them went out of the house together. Cheng Xue heard the sound of going upstairs but did not move. Li Huai ran to Lian's house with "ta da da da..."
Seeing Li Heng and Yan Yixin coming upstairs, Cheng Xue hurried over to help them take off their raincoats.
"How are you? Is everything okay over there at the stables?"
"Don't worry, mother, the stable is fine, Huzi is watching. My dad came back and bought pig lungs, and I will give Huzi extra food at night."
Yan Yixin smiled and saluted as usual, without saying anything. He was currently in the stage of changing his voice, and he tried his best not to make a sound, which was a bit embarrassing.
"You two will start practicing kung fu with Dexi and Chengxi tomorrow. They are both good at kung fu."
"I understand, Mom, I will practice with them early tomorrow morning. By the way, Mom, can I leave tomorrow?"
"We have to go according to plan, it depends on the situation."
