Chapter 692 Curse
You said that a grown-up girl would stay in a grown-up man’s house all day long, is that ridiculous?
He was ashamed of her shamelessness and shamelessness, but she didn't feel it at all, and she was too shameless.
For such a shameless thing, he also wants to daydream about being the concubine of his young master. Bah... It's really whimsical. A toad wants to eat swan meat.
Of course, that toad would never be his young master.
Da Ya was frightened by the cold sword and no longer dared to rush forward risklessly.
She collapsed to the ground all of a sudden, and then started howling like a wolf.
The village chief and his wife then came forward, apologized, and helped Da Ya up.
"They are all young and ignorant, making Master Zheng laughable." The village chief apologized with a smile.
In fact, he hoped that Zheng Wenting could accept the eldest daughter, even if she was a maid. It would be a blessing for her to be a maid for a rich young master. In the future, he would have more face in the village.
It's a pity that people have said that the maid is not even qualified to be a maid sweeping the floor.
This is already a rejection.
If you continue to entangle, you will be offended.
They, little farmers, dare not offend these nobles.
It's just a pity that his daughter missed the opportunity to fly up a branch and become a phoenix.
It would be great if Master Zheng promised his eldest daughter to take her as his concubine, then he would be Master Zheng's father-in-law.
One person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, and maybe they have a rich son-in-law, and their family can live in the city.
With so many daydreams, dreams, and whimsical thoughts, the village chief just watched Da Ya pester Zheng Wenting without making a sound.
It wasn't until he saw the other party taking out his sword that he was frightened and hurried over.
The village chief's wife no longer cared about being the mother-in-law of a rich young master, so she quickly grabbed Da Ya, took a few steps back, and looked at the young man with horrified eyes.
When the boy sheathed his sword, the village chief's wife turned around and saw baskets full of braised meat being loaded into the carriage on the ground. The village chief's wife felt heartbroken.
That's not all. Shengdi jumped on the carriage again, gave all the pots and pans, and took the pots away. Even the firewood they bought that was not burned was bundled one by one, put on the top of the carriage and taken away. .
The village chief and his wife were dumbfounded.
He didn't care about the amount of raw land, he took care of his own.
Huh, what he took away was all bought with their money.
It's snowing now, and the firewood outside is all wet and can't make a fire. These firewood are good things, and he has to bring them all.
Chu Cong and Chu Fei also packed up the bedding, curtains, etc. in Xia Zihan's house and moved them onto the carriage one by one.
After they left, the village chief's wife returned to the house and found that the house was clean and tidy, not even a needle or thread was left for her. She was so angry that she stood at the door and shouted fiercely in the direction Xia Zihan left. He cursed fiercely, full of curses.
When she was scolding vigorously, suddenly, something flew over and hit her teeth, knocking out two front teeth. The pain made her cry like a wolf and howl as a ghost, wiping tears from her eyes.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes.
Gone in a flash.
The cry of the village chief's wife stopped suddenly, her eyes widened, and she shot around. Seeing no one around, the ground was completely white with not even a single footprint. The footprints Xia Zihan and the others left when they left were quickly covered up by the heavy snow.
Her whole body suddenly shook violently, her face turned pale, and she shouted in fear, "Ghost..."
He ran into the house desperately.
The secret guard stepped out from behind the courtyard wall, snorted, and then made a lifelong leap, making no sound again.
He originally wanted to report to his master that Mianyang City had sent officials to clean up the landslide at the other end, while they were cleaning up at this end and both ends at the same time. This way, the time should be reduced by half.
He wanted to tell his master that the official from Mianyang City seemed to be a relative of the princess.
Unexpectedly, the master left so quickly. He took a small road, which probably branched off, so he didn't meet the master. But he didn't expect that he saw a shrew who dared to scold the princess here. It was simply... …damn it.
Hum...
The secret guard snorted coldly and flew away.
On the way, due to the heavy snowfall, the convoy did not move very fast. After walking five miles, the snow on the ground was one foot thick. There were one hundred bodyguards. Except for a dozen or so who were just injured, the other bodyguards were divided into three groups. Two batches, taking turns to clear the snow.
Because the snow is getting thicker and thicker, the journey is getting slower and slower.
If you clear one meter, the team will walk one meter. A short distance of one thousand meters will take one hour.
When the meal arrives, everyone eats some dry food to fill their stomachs.
Li Sangwu is also a veteran who often travels out as escorts. In the morning, he notified the escorts to prepare some dry food in each house. However, their dry food was not as detailed as Chu Cong's. They just boiled potatoes in salt water and boiled sweet potatoes in salt water. .
Although it’s not delicious, it’s still filling.
Seeing that the escorts were suffering, Xia Zihan kindly asked Chu Cong to share a basket of braised meat with Li Sangwu and Zheng Wenting's people, and the six of them also kept half of the basket of meat to eat.
Maybe it was because they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, but after eating meat, the escorts were full of energy, worked faster, and traveled two minutes faster.
With the hard work and concerted efforts of the escorts, they finally arrived at the landslide in the afternoon of the next day.
The secret guards were still clearing the road. The area of the landslide was not large, but as they were clearing it, the rocks and soil on top slid down, which made their work more difficult and took a lot of time.
In two days, thirty secret guards could only clear a small part of the road. On the other side of the mountain, there were noisy sounds, and they were also clearing the road.
After the convoy arrived, the escorts cleared the road together with the secret guards without saying a word.
With more people and greater strength, most of the remaining roads were cleared in one afternoon, and the remaining small portion could be cleared in an hour or two.
Just after nightfall, when the escorts were eating potatoes, Zheng Wenting's steward choked his neck and shouted, "Brothers, come on, we stay up late, this road will be open, and we can rush to the small town at the foot of the mountain tonight." Come on, you can have a good sleep. My young master has said that we will prepare a few banquets tomorrow to reward the brothers for their hard work in the past few days."
When the escorts heard this, they became excited.
Originally, it was freezing cold and they didn't want to spend the night outside. They might as well work and warm up to avoid being too cold.
If they could go down the mountain earlier and stay at the inn earlier, they would be very willing.
On the carriage, Chu Jingqi and Xia Zihan were also chatting, "Ayu, the secret guard said that Liao Jingtang is in the town. In the past few days, he has personally come to supervise the officers and men to clear the roads. It seems that the letter you wrote to him, he Received.”
