Chapter 159 Hiring a Carriage

On the contrary, An Yanshu was worried about his younger sister's body, and looked at An Zhinan, who had a calm expression in his eyes. He was relieved, and said softly, "It seems that you are not uncomfortable in the carriage this time."

"It's strange to say that when I first saw Uncle Chen's carriage, I was still worried about the bumps along the way, but after sitting in it, I realized that it is much smoother than riding in a carriage in the past."

Uncle Chen, who was driving the carriage outside, faintly heard An Zhinan's words and smiled. While waving his long whip, he said in a loud voice, "The wheels of my carriage have undergone special treatment. My mother is not in good health. I used to take her to Fucheng to see a doctor. I was afraid that the road would be bumpy and uncomfortable, so I bought some cowhide and wrapped it in two layers, which made it much more stable."

An Zhinan raised the corners of his mouth towards the car curtain, and raised his voice: "Uncle Chen is still smart, we can't think of such a way."

"Haha, it's not a good brain, it's just a helpless move, you must have never seen the best carriages, the carriages of those dignitaries are called stable, and they travel like walking on flat ground, which makes people yearn for it. "

The brothers and sisters in the carriage looked at each other and smiled, only to hear Uncle Chen continue to yell outside: "I heard that the official road is not smooth recently, let's go to Fucheng along the waterway, although it will delay half a day, but it's safer, what do you think? ?”

An Yanshu said loudly: "Uncle Chen can decide, we brothers and sisters are not in a hurry, just be safe."

"Well, since you're not in a hurry, I'll stop in the front town for a while at noon, and then go on my way after lunch. Sit tight, I'm going to speed up."

Before the two brothers and sisters could speak, they immediately noticed the speed of the carriage increased and felt that the center of gravity was a little unstable. The two quickly sat down and held on to the handrails beside them.

It took a while for An Zhinan to say in surprise: "Brother, it seems that Uncle Chen's horse is not as bad as we thought. It runs no less than other carriages."

Seeing her sister's flying long hair, An Yanshu pursed her lips and smiled: "We took it for granted."

A group of three people walked and stopped along the waterway, and there were no accidents during the period, and they arrived at Fucheng at noon on the fourth day.

Under the guidance of An Yanshu, the carriage stopped steadily at the door of Ya She, and the two brothers and sisters got out of the car one after the other, looking at Ya She with a look of nostalgia in their eyes.

"Should you put your luggage here or take it in?"

An Yanshu hurriedly turned around and took the luggage that Uncle Chen had brought down, and said while carrying the luggage to the house, "Uncle Chen, come and have a rest and drink some water, I will trouble you all the way."

"That's right, Uncle Chen, it's time for lunch. We'll go out and finish our lunch later. It's not too late for you to leave," An Zhinan hurriedly said aside.

Chen Dagui waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no, how can I make you spend money, there is enough dry food in the bag, but I am really thirsty, I will drink my saliva and leave."

"Then how can it work? For our safety, you deliberately chose to take half a day's journey. Along the way, my elder brother and I were taken care of by you. We should spend a lot of money on lunch. Don't talk to us. You're being polite, it's not like eating delicacies from mountains and seas."

Only then did Chen Dagui smile and nod in agreement, carrying the heaviest luggage and following them into the room.

"Big Brother? Little Sister? Are you back?" An Zhiyan heard the movement coming from the house, and saw several people staring straight at their eyes.

An Zhinan smiled and nodded: "Everyone is in front of you, and I asked, by the way, second brother, this is Uncle Chen, we came to Fucheng this time in his carriage, let's pack our luggage and go to your restaurant for dinner , I would also like to thank Uncle Chen for taking care of me and my eldest brother along the way."

"Thank you, Uncle Chen, for taking care of my elder brother and younger sister. I'm the second child in the family. Just call me Zhiyan." After speaking, An Zhiyan turned to An Zhinan and said, "Then put your luggage and I'll go The restaurant has ordered food, and you can just come and eat."

"Uh-huh."

The two first welcomed Uncle Chen into the main room and sat down, then made him a cup of tea, and then went back to the room with their respective luggage.

Originally planned to rest at home before going to Youranju, but Chen Dagui was afraid that An Zhiyan would wait for a long time, so the three of them went out and walked towards Youranju.

When he reached the entrance of Youranju, Chen Dagui stared at Youranju and was stunned on the spot. He pointed at Youranju with a trembling finger and asked, "Is this Youranju? The Youranju in Fucheng? Shall we go inside for dinner?"

Seeing the two brothers and sisters nodding, Chen Dagui pulled the two of them aside, looked around and said in a low voice, "Why didn't you say you came here for dinner before? I've heard of this Youranju, and it's said that the food inside is frighteningly expensive. , Who can afford it for ordinary people, let’s just find some noodles at a small stall, there’s no need to come here to eat, how much money will this meal cost?”

"Did Zhiyan order? If he didn't order, tell him not to order. I think the noodle stall opposite is good. Let's have noodles at noon."

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other and smiled when they heard Chen Dagui's words, and then An Zhinan said with a smile: "My second brother is working inside, it won't be that expensive if we go to eat, don't worry, Uncle Chen, besides, the second brother must have already ordered it, say Maybe the food will be served soon, so I can't refund it, let's go, Uncle Chen, it's okay."

Hearing that the order was ready, Chen Dagui had no choice but to give up, feeling a little embarrassed, always felt that he had taken advantage of a few juniors, but he didn't have much money with him, he just wanted to pay, but his wallet was empty.

Chen Dagui followed the two into Youranju, seeing them greet the shop assistants skillfully, Chen Dagui let go of his heart a little.

As for the well-known Leisurely House in Fucheng, a coachman like Chen Dagui who often travels to Fucheng has heard of it, and he also knows that the second floor of Leisurely House is not open to the public, and the food inside is not affordable for ordinary people.

So when he saw the waiter from the shop welcoming them up to the second floor, the shock in his eyes was obvious, and he opened his mouth wide until he entered the box and sat down.

An Zhiyan added some tea to Chen Dagui, and said with a smile, "The meal will be here soon, Uncle Chen, please sit down."

"It's okay to be okay."

The food was quickly served by the waiter in the shop. An Zhiyan ordered three dishes and one soup, which was just right for the four of them, no more, no less.

A few people went out directly after dinner, and it wasn't until Chen Dagui asked about the payment that An Zhiyan explained: "I paid the money before you came, and I just heard from my younger sister that Uncle Chen took good care of them along the way." , I really don’t know how to thank you, if Uncle Chen is not in a hurry to go back, you can take a rest in Fucheng for a day, there are plenty of vacant rooms at home, and it happens that I can prepare some dry food for you.”

"No, no, there is still a sick old mother waiting for me to go back. It is really not good to delay. Besides, your father also paid for my money. I have brought enough dry food this time. I don't need to prepare any more. I really don't need to be so polite. .”
