Chapter 104 Did she hit you?
At noon, we had baked buns and meatloaf again. The food we brought with us will not go bad for two or three days in the current weather, because we have to continue on our way, and cooking porridge takes a long time, so, the weather So they cooked soup - egg soup.
It’s just that there is something extra in this egg soup. The children found wild vegetables in the fields on the roadside, dug them out, washed them and put them into the pot.
Wild shepherd's purse is a wild vegetable in this season. Although it is winter, it is still green. The egg soup with shepherd's purse tastes more delicious than before, and it is also visually pleasing.
Hong Xiaoduo drank the soup and looked around. Although the road he passed recently was a bit far from the official road, although there were mountains and forests, he had not had the chance to hunt game recently.
In addition, now that she has some gold and silver, she can also order some fish and meat dishes when she goes to the town. Otherwise, even if the forest is further away from the road, she will still have to pack some game to supplement the nutrition of the children.
For feudal ancient times, Hong Xiaoduo felt that there were some advantages that were not available in modern times. At least when she went into the woods to hunt game, she did not need to first know what level of protected animals the game she wanted to hunt was. If she was caught, she would be caught. What level of punishment will be received.
Another point is that she hasn’t hunted game for a while, and her hands are a little itchy.
After setting off for a while in the afternoon, the escorts discovered a problem. The third senior brother was either riding at the front or at the back, and was no longer next to the young lady’s carriage.
Hong Xiaoduo didn't notice this. He snorted in the carriage in the afternoon and simply lay down to sleep for a while.
In a daze, he felt the carriage stop: "Are you in town so soon?" he asked as he sat up and stretched.
I saw a few little guys in the car, crowding at the window on one side and looking out at something.
"I haven't arrived yet. I stopped in front. I don't know what happened." Tianshu told him outside the carriage.
Stop ahead? Hong Xiaoduo thought for a moment, put on his boots and got out of the carriage, straightened his clothes and walked forward.
The first few bodyguards stood there, blocking her line of sight. However, she could not see, but she heard a woman's pleading voice: "Young master, please help us.
An escort heard the movement behind him, turned around and saw that it was Hong Xiaoduo, and leaned to the side to make room for her.
Now I can see clearly that the wheel of a carriage is broken. A woman in her late forties is saying good things to Dazhi, and there is also a sweaty man in his fifties. It looks like It was a coachman who was standing beside the carriage.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the carriage. The window was blocked by a curtain, but he could vaguely see a young woman inside.
"What's going on?" The sound of horse hooves came from behind Hong Xiaoduo, followed by Tang Xihua's voice.
“Third senior brother, their carriage wheel is broken and they want us to help.” Dazhi quickly stepped forward and told them.
Tang Xihua did not dismount, but looked at the broken carriage. Seeing that the wheel was so damaged that it could not be repaired, he said, "How can we help? We don't have any spare wheels."
"Master , can you take us to the town ahead?" The woman's voice came from the carriage, which was so pleasant that several escorts couldn't help but look at the window.
This place is only two hours away from the previous town. Tang Xihua thought for a while and agreed.
"Thank you for your help, young master. Madam Xun, please come down quickly." The woman thanked her quickly, turned around, opened the car door, helped a twenty-eight-year-old girl out of the car, then entered the car and carried a baggage down. .
The girl had combed hair on her temples, her skin was as fair as jade, her eyebrows were as thin as willow leaves, her red lips pursed lightly, and after glancing at Tang Xihua with watery eyes, she lowered her head shyly.
Ouch? Hong Xiaoduo looked towards Tang Xihua on horseback, wanting to see his reaction at this time, but what he saw was an expressionless face. "Shicheng, please tidy up your car a little and let her and the two of you sit in it." Tang Xihua said to an escort.
The escort who called Shi Cheng immediately responded and started to organize the carriage he was driving. The woman and Lady Xun immediately looked over, and when they saw that they were asked to sit on the carriage, Madam Xun frowned as she walked out of the carriage with goods, and the woman's originally happy face immediately became a little unnatural.
"Sir, can't that one be used?" The woman looked behind and pointed at Hong Xiaoduo's carriage and asked.
Hong Xiaoduo said nothing, wanting to hear Tang Xihua’s response.
"I'm sorry, that's not my carriage, and I can't make the decision. Besides, that car can't accommodate you two." Tang Xihua said in a calm voice.
"Isn't it the young master's carriage? Whose is it? Let me go and ask." The woman asked unwillingly.
Tang Xihua didn't say it belonged to Hong Xiaoduo, but the expression on his face was a little unhappy, and he looked at the woman coldly.
Unfortunately, the woman was anxious to ask the owner of the carriage and did not meet Tang Xihua's expression. Seeing the escort looking at Hong Xiaoduo, she immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Little lady, those two carriages It’s yours, can you let my lady Xun squeeze in, it’ll only take two hours.
It’s not easy for young ladies to be away from home, so please make it easier.”
After hearing her question about Hong Xiaoduo, Tang Xihua immediately felt embarrassed and looked at Hong Xiaoduo.
When they set off, there was a carriage with people riding in it, which was prepared for the junior sister. Later, when they sent the junior sister back, they naturally took that carriage.
All the carriages now, except for the one Shi Cheng was driving to carry tents and other items, were all loaded with goods. When he just agreed to give them a ride, he didn't expect that Hong Kong would Xiaoduo will be given in the car.
Although the woman was begging for help, Hong Xiaoduo didn't like this person, but looking at the girl's gentle look, he didn't have the heart to refuse: "I can only squeeze her out."
As for this woman, if she doesn’t want to ride in a carriage pulling goods, she can go by herself.
The woman heard that she agreed. Although she couldn't sit down, her little wife could at least sit down. Although she felt unhappy, she also knew that she was asking for help.
"Thank you very much, little lady." After saying that, he turned around and said in a bad tone to the coachman: "You useless thing, just stay here and wait for someone from the mansion to come."
When the coachman was scolded, he answered honestly.
Hong Xiaoduo noticed that when the woman scolded the coachman, the expression on the gentle lady Xun's face did not change. She also noticed that half of the coachman's cheeks were swollen and there were bloodshot eyes at the corners of his mouth.
The woman carried the bundle and led Mrs. Xun to Hong Xiaoduo's carriage.
However, Hong Xiaoduo walked to the broken carriage and asked the coachman: "Did she hit you?"
The coachman glanced at the back of the woman, Mrs. Xun, and whispered: "It's my fault before going out. I didn’t check the vehicle carefully.”
Hong Xiaoduo frowned and walked towards his carriage.
Tang Xihua and several other escorts immediately followed her movements with their eyes...
