Four adorable babies of auspicious families

Chapter 20 Accommodation
Jixiang, who had just walked less than fifty miles, was stopped by her sworn sister. Jixiang looked at her with a guilty conscience.

"I said sister, why don't you say anything when you leave?" It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with Jixiang's farewell without saying goodbye.

"Sister, don't blame me, it happened suddenly and I had to do it." Jixiang was apologetic, but she didn't trust this sister at all.

"I found out that those two people belonged to the fifth prince. I don't understand how you can provoke such a high-level person? I asked my father that the fifth prince seems to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact it is not easy to save money in secret." lights."

Jixiang was very moved when she heard her say this, at least what she said was the real situation that she found out, which was the same as what Zheng Zhifu told herself.

"Thank you, sister. I just left overnight because I didn't want to burden you." Ji Xiang felt that this sister hadn't been in vain, and felt very warm in his heart.

"Silly sister, what did we say when we became sworn brothers? You have the same blessings and share the same difficulties. Of course you should tell me if you are in trouble. By the way, take these money and write to me when you arrive at the place. Where to go to save you from worrying, I have relatives and friends in the capital and the northwest, if you go in these two directions, I can arrange accommodation for you in advance." The magistrate's wife gave Ji Xiang a large bag of money, which seemed to be Not a lot.

Of course Jixiang didn't want to accept it. I don't know if I can see her again after I leave this time. How can I pay back so many favors?
"Okay, don't say much else, hurry up, I'm going back, remember to write a letter." The county magistrate's wife seemed to see Jixiang's embarrassment, she readily handed her the wallet, turned around and left.

Seeing her slowly receding figure, Jixiang didn't know what to say. At this moment, she seemed to understand that her sister sincerely regarded herself as a sister.

Tang Jiezhong remained silent all the time, Jixiang looked at him apologetically and said softly, let's go, the four children looked at the back of the aunt who was going away, and ran over and shouted "Auntie."

A few people over there cried together, and Jixiang couldn't help wiping away tears here.

"Girl, let me say something that shouldn't be said. Take your sworn sister with you. If she goes back and meets someone sent by His Highness the Fifth Highness, it will be a disaster." Tang Jiezhong sighed. Originally, he didn't want to talk too much, but seeing Seeing that she was so sincere to Jixiang, she couldn't help but mention it.

Jixiang looked at the wallet in his hand and saw the reluctance of the children for her, and Jixiang also ran over.

"Sister, let's go together!" The county magistrate's wife was taken aback by Ji Xiang's words, and then laughed out loud holding Ji Xiang.

"My dear sister, it is enough to have your words. Don't worry, I will delay you here. The fortune teller said that my fate is good. I will go to see you after you are settled down." She said Jixiang and a few children hurried away as soon as they pushed themselves, wiping tears as they walked, Jixiang looked sad and didn't know what to say.

After a lot of time wasted, everyone stopped talking and went on their way. Ji Xiang divided the purse into six parts, each of the four children took one part, and Tang Jiezhong and Vice General Qin each had one part. She was afraid that the situation on the road would be unknown. Money cannot be placed on one person.

When we walked to a town in the middle of the night, Tang Jiezhong saw that the four children were tired and suggested to find a place to rest. Jixiang nodded in agreement, and she was also very tired.

The town is not big, there is only one inn, and there is no name, just a cloth that says the inn is motionless in the quiet night, and the torch in Tang Jiezhong's hand is just about to go out.

Vice-General Qin went up to knock on the door, and an old man in a coat came to open the door. Seeing so many people at the door, he waved his hand and said that it was full and there was no room for them.

Seeing that the old man was about to close the door, Jiawen rushed to the front to block the door and looked at him with his head raised: "Grandpa, look at our family, we are too tired to walk in the middle of the night, one room is fine, we sit on the floor Even for one night."

Shuang Shuang also squeezed to the front to look at the old man together.

Seeing such a cute child, the old man looked at Jixiang and Tang Jiezhong, both of whom looked honest and honest. He sighed and said that it was really full. Now there is only some hay in the stable, so he can make do with sitting and resting.

Jixiang and the child don't matter, but Vice General Qin and Tang Jiezhong are the benefactors who escorted themselves and the child, so how can they live in the stable?
"Then thank you, old man." As soon as Jixiang finished speaking, the old man turned around and led them in. Jixiang stopped awkwardly. Did she politely refuse before finishing speaking, and the old man wanted to take them in?
She looked at Tang Jiezhong and Vice General Qin and didn't know how to explain.

"It doesn't matter, let's go, we big men can do whatever we want." Tang Jiezhong smiled and said it didn't matter.

The stables are actually much better than imagined. There are fences on three sides. There are no horses inside. The hay is neatly spread on the ground. It is clean and has no peculiar smell. Maybe this is for people who really have no money and want to rest. yes.

The old man left them a lantern and went back to rest without receiving any money.

Jixiang arranged the four children to sleep first in the inner place. Looking back, he saw Tang Jiezhong sitting cross-legged on the far side, and Vice General Qin hid among the leaves on a big tree in the yard. to him.

Jixiang understood that they were not going to sleep.

Jixiang was also tired and quickly fell asleep next to the children. He smelled the burning smell in a daze. Some people cried and others yelled.

Neither Tang Jiezhong nor Vice General Qin were in their original positions, she hurriedly shook the children awake and took them to run outside.

"Don't move, the fire won't reach here, let's see the situation first." Tang Jiezhong didn't know when he would come back and call out to Jixiang, Jixiang tightly held the hands of several children and looked at the fire over there in panic.
