Chapter 34 She accepted it
In the early morning, Hong Xiaoduo, who had slept until he woke up naturally, looked at the bright sky and was a little confused. In his current situation, even if no child had a nightmare and woke up crying last night After disturbing her, she shouldn't sleep so peacefully, right?
You didn’t even have a dream? How big must her heart be?
Tilted his head and looked at the row of bedding neatly stacked on the bunk, huh? Are you now worse than a group of children? So sleepy?
"Mom, are you awake?" Hong Xiaoduo just sat up when he saw Yao Guang sitting on the pony and called her happily.
Before Hong Xiaoduo could respond, she saw Yao Guang stand up and run to the door, and she immediately thought of the next scene.
"Brother, mother is awake." Yaoguang opened the door and reported to the people outside.
Then, just like the day before, Tianxuan came in with water for washing, and Yu Heng also took out the wooden comb that Hong Xiaoduo had just bought the afternoon before and came over.
After Hong Xiaoduo lowered her legs, Kaiyang quickly came over and put the shoes on the ground to her feet. Tian Quan immediately took off her shoes and climbed up to the bunk to tidy up her bedding.
A group of little guys seem to have been trained, with a clear division of labor.
Somehow, Hong Xiaoduo thought that besides wanting to repay her and please her, the reason why they were acting like this was probably due to the bad reason they had been around the evil man and serving him like this.
I felt a little uncomfortable, so I leaned over and insisted that I put on my shoes. I had to put a smile on my face, otherwise they might think about what they did wrong to make her unhappy.
Thinking that I had gotten up late and the children must be hungry, I quickly washed up.
"Mom, we have checked everything, nothing is missing, everything is loaded in our car." Tianquan said hurriedly when he saw Hong Xiaoduo looking at the shop.
Hong Xiaoduo nodded, took them out of the room, and went to the counter to pay the room fee.
"If you're not in a hurry, you can stay here for a few more days, and I won't charge you for the room. Anyway, there aren't many guests, so it's empty." Granny Lanhua knew the day before that they were leaving this morning, and she was very worried. He said reluctantly.
Although we have only been in contact with each other for two days, Granny Lanhua really likes these seven tenants.
Good-looking, sweet-mouthed, sensible and hard-working. I get up early every day and help clean the inn.
"Mother-in-law, we may meet again if we have the opportunity in the future." After saying that, he put away the change that the shopkeeper had found, thanked the shopkeeper again, and said that the business was booming.
When I walked to the door, I didn’t see Tianshu. I thought of something and walked to the stable. Sure enough, there, he was feeding the donkey grass.
"Tianshu, let's go have breakfast first." Hong Xiaoduo greeted, watching Tianshu respond to him while looking back at the donkey cart worriedly.
She and her seven children ate braised noodles at a noodle shop next to the inn. When they came out, she bought sesame seed cakes at a roadside sesame seed cake stall, and also bought a pile of meat cakes to eat on the way.
The little guys held it happily and followed Tianshu Xian as he trotted back to the inn stables.
Standing in front of the donkey cart, Hong Xiaoduo looked into the carriage and was filled with emotion. She was obviously an adult and should take care of these seven little ones, but in fact, it seemed that they were responsible for many things. If you do it, she doesn't have to worry about it at all.
Look inside the carriage. Some of the bits and pieces bought the day before, as well as their newly bought cotton-padded clothes, are neatly arranged without looking cluttered, and will not affect their sitting ability. , can also be used as a backrest.
The tent I bought yesterday was tied up at the rear of the carriage, and it was tied firmly, so there was no need to worry about it falling off on the road.
"Okay, let's get in the car." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, he carried Yao Guang up first, and the other children climbed up by themselves on horse stools.
"Mom, why don't you get on?" Seeing that she didn't get on the bus, Tianshu asked puzzledly, and then said: "Mom, please go up and sit down. It's okay. I'm walking to catch the bus. I won't get on. "
Look, whenever she hesitates about something, they will immediately wonder, why?
"I'm not afraid that it won't be able to pull. Didn't the boss of the carriage shop say that the weight we add together is still far short of its load-bearing capacity. I mean, didn't I just buy this? I'll just follow him for a while, it's safer." When Tianshu heard this, he understood immediately. Mom was worried that she was not good at driving, and she didn't know what the donkey's temper was. So she followed along, and what if the donkey lost control and became disobedient? Yes, my mother can help stop it.
"Is the water filled?" Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but ask.
I bought three water bags the day before and took water with me. After all, it is not very convenient to find water sources on the road.
Tianshu immediately nodded and said, "It's all full."
"Let's go then." Hong Xiaoduo closed the door of the carriage and signaled with a smile. Tianshu also smiled and nodded. He was very excited and shook the reins. The donkey raised its hooves and moved forward very humanely. Come on, the donkey cart doesn't look as grand as the horse carriage, but it's pretty stable.
Grandma Lanhua and her son stood on the roadside, saying a safe journey and waving after them.
"Mom, actually, you should buy a horse to ride on." Tianshu said as he walked.
Hong Xiaoduo glanced at him and said: "When you buy a cotton coat, you still want to buy the cheapest one. Buy a horse? A horse costs more than ten taels of silver. However, in the future, your wallet will be bigger. I will buy it." Well, she would never say that she was not sure whether she could ride a horse, so she did not dare to buy it.
She doesn’t like walking and is not tired. This is not a donkey cart she just bought. She is still a little worried. She will walk another mile or two before getting on the cart. With.
Already almost out of the town, I heard someone from behind shouting: "Miss Hong, wait a minute."
Tianshu grabbed the reins and looked behind Hong Xiaoduo. He was dressed as a boy, and he didn't recognize him at all.
The person arrived quickly, and the boy handed her a brocade bag: "My master is Dong Yuefan, and he said that the young lady knows about it. Because there is something important, I can't come to see the young lady off in person, so I just Send the younger ones I sent this, saying that we are acquainted by fate, and please accept it.
My master also said that if the lady is not in a hurry, she should try to find a place to rest as early as possible during the day, and try to take the official road. Never I want to take the remote mountain road."
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and reached out to take the brocade bag. It was heavy, and he knew that it should contain silver without looking at it: "Thank Brother Dong again for me, and tell him. Landscapes meet each other, I'll see you again if we have the chance. I also wish him a bright future and a prosperous future. Thank you for your hard work."
Why do I need to say another word, because I have already helped someone. The biggest one is busy.
After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, he turned around and walked away.
The boy watched her turn around, then looked down to see that he was lighter and had no hands. He looked up again as if he couldn't believe it. Shouldn't he be a little polite, decline, and then accept it?
Tianshu looked at the boy's reaction and saw that he was looking over. He quickly turned around and drove the donkey to continue.
After taking a few steps, I glanced at Hong Xiaoduo secretly. Her expression was as usual, just!
At this time, in Dong Yuefan's house, he was grumbling in his heart when he saw his good brother who had already packed up but did not get on his horse and leave immediately.
If I had known this earlier, I would have gone to see off sister Xiaoduo first.
"Brother Zitao, where are the three pounds?" Dong Yuefan looked at the guards leading the horses around. It seemed that one was missing and he didn't know where he went.
The good brother came with a few guards. They usually live in the courtyard next door and don't eat together. They are all leaving, but why is there still one missing? Is it because these days have allowed them to grow loose and develop the bad habit of being undisciplined?
Or, do you have a crush in town? Haha, isn't the good brother always showing off his subordinates, there are no lustful ones, isn't there also one who can't control his belt!
Before I could wait for my good brother’s response, I saw that the boy I had sent out to see Xiaoduo off had returned.
Seeing that he came back empty-handed, he immediately smiled: "Okay, what did you say, she just accepted it?"
"Huh, if you don't want the money that was delivered to your door, you'd be a fool." Mu Zitao looked at him as if he were an idiot and said.
Dong Yuefan rolled his eyes at him and continued to look at his boy.
After hearing the words of his master’s good brother, the young man looked at his master and was a little confused as to how to give an appropriate answer, because if he told the truth, it would seem that he would fulfill what General Mu just said.
"The young one just followed the master's instructions and didn't say much else." After looking at his master, he didn't dare to lie.
Others don't understand, but as a personal servant, he has the best understanding of his master's character. It's okay to do something wrong that doesn't matter, but if he lies because he's smart, his master will not forgive him lightly when he knows about it.
"Look, this is the one who is at odds with me. If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, don't take it. It's great to be direct." Dong Yuefan was very happy.
"Well, Mr. Dong, just be happy. Mu said goodbye. Before I leave, I would like to advise you. If you want to return to Beijing as soon as possible, you must be as peaceful as before. Don't act arbitrarily and do whatever you want. It’s time to do something.”
Looking at his subordinate Sanjin outside the door, Mu Zitao reminded his good brother and walked out.
A few of his men led the horses and followed him out.
Seeing the people getting on their horses and riding away, Dong Yuefan covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves to block the dust raised by the horses' hooves, waiting for his good brother to turn around and wave in response. As a result, none of the people even looked back.
The sigh, the drooped shoulders, and the sad eyes made the boy a little unbearable to look at him.
Mu Zitao, who slowed down as soon as he left the town, felt a little regretful. Now that he knew which direction she was going, why did he set off so early? They are just a donkey cart, how fast can they go?
Following slowly? Let’s pass it first...
