Chapter 92 Rescue on the Road

On July [-]th, it was dawn, and the Luo family was dispatched. Those who should go to school today, those who should go to Fucheng, need to prepare a lot of dry food.

Luo Wenser was already used to the life of her natal family, and knew that Chen Xiuyan would prepare snacks for Luo Mingchu, Luo Mingnian, and Luo Mingxin every day in school. She was very moved by Chen Xiuyan's attention to the children at home.

When Luo Wenqian was studying in the past, his family didn't prepare any snacks. It's no wonder that the children in the family like Chen Xiuyan so much.

Although Luo Wense's cooking skills are not as good as Chen Xiuyan's, she is better than Luo Mingqing and the others. Today she specially made mung bean cake, steamed white steamed buns, boiled brown sugar egg soup, steamed corn, breakfast, snacks, and dry food for the road. .

Luo Mingqing sent Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian to study in the Ning family, and then sent Luo Wenqian, Chen Xiuyan and Luo Mingxin to the palace.

When we arrived at the royal residence, six carriages were parked at the gate, which was quite spectacular.

Mrs. Wang, Wang Dianli, Mrs. Wang, etc. were all there. As soon as Wang Yajie saw Luo Wenqian, he came up to say hello.

In addition to the Wang family, Chen Xiuyan also met the Ning family and Liu Zhai people.

Ning Youjin also went with Wang Yajie and the others, as the Liu family of the future Yue family came to see her off in person, Liu Qingxiu was also among them.

Looking at the gentle and elegant Luo Wenqian, and the charming and smiling Chen Xiuyan, Liu Qingxiu squeezed the handkerchief in her hand tightly. She didn't understand why Luo Wenqian was still so lively, but at the same time she was glad that he was alive.

Liu Qingxiu took a sneak peek at Ning Youjin, and sure enough, he was looking at Luo Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan with eyes that were calmer than those of his peers, and he didn't know who he could see.

Luo Wenqian saluted and greeted Wang Dianli and others, and a group of people boarded the carriage to Fucheng in order not to delay time.

After seeing Chen Xiuyan also boarded the carriage, Liu Qingxiu couldn't help asking, "The lady of the Luo family is going to Fucheng too?"

When everyone around her looked at her, Liu Qingxiu knew that she was talking too much.

"Madam Luo and Luo Xiucai just got married not long ago, so it's normal to go with her, and she can take good care of her nearby." Wang Yayu immediately spoke for Chen Xiuyan, "After you and Ning Xiucai get married, you can also go with them."

This sentence hit Liu Qingxiu's pain point all of a sudden. The marriage between herself and Ning Youjin has been settled for two years. She originally thought that she could get married after Jiji, but the Ning family wanted Ning Youjin to concentrate on studying. I haven't mentioned it after the Jiji ceremony, and it was my mother who went back to her mother's house to inquire about it, so she was sure that Ning Youjin would come to the house to ask for a period after the country test.

The six carriages at the gate of the Wang Zhai drove away one after another. The first was Ning Youjin, followed by Wang Yajie, then Luo Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan, and the next three were servants sent by the Wang Zhai to take care of several people. It was packed with luggage and books.

The carriage drove out of the city gate, and there were two carriages waiting outside the city gate. They were the remaining five students from the county school who were going to take the provincial examination. They rented the carriage together.

Eight horse-drawn carriages headed for Fucheng in a mighty way. Tonight, a group of people will stay in Yi County. If they want to enter the city before dark, they have to travel non-stop. Apart from the convenience of getting down, the group of people will even have meals in the carriage. .

It was the first time for Chen Xiuyan to try the horse-drawn carriage. It was really uncomfortable, not to mention the bumps, and it was still hot, but the horse was already the fastest means of transportation in ancient times, so she could only endure it.

Fortunately, Wang Zhai arranged the carriage fairly comfortably, with bedding, mats, and a small tea cabinet. In the small tea cabinet were teapots, teacups, some dried fruits and candied fruit.

Watching the time, Chen Xiuyan took out the mung bean cake, poured tea, and each ate two pieces with Luo Wenqian. She didn't dare to drink too much tea for fear of going to the toilet, but most of the water was excreted from the body through sweat on such a hot day.

The carriage walked along the official road. Chen Xiuyan was tired of looking at the single scenery on the road, so she lay down to sleep, but the weather was too hot, but she fell asleep for a while afterward.

When the carriage entered the city gate of Yi County, it was still daylight, but it was estimated that it was almost past Shen Shi.

A group of people went to an inn called Fushun and asked for five rooms and a table of meals.

Chen Xiuyan followed Luo Wenqian and his classmates to eat at the table in the lobby. After driving for a day, they ordered light dishes, but the taste was really not that good. Chen Xiuyan simply ate a steamed bun, picked up a few chopsticks and then stopped. hand.

When she arrives in a new place, Chen Xiuyan always wants to find out, try the local specialties, but the scholars are busy returning to their rooms to study.

Luo Wenqian wanted to accompany Chen Xiuyan, but he was very knowledgeable, and Wang Yajie and the others wanted to ask him for advice. In order to protect others, Wang Yajie asked the housekeeper of the Wang residence to go out with Chen Xiuyan.

"Uncle Chen is very familiar with Yixian County. With him accompanying his sister-in-law, brother Ziqing, you don't need to worry." Wang Yayu explained.

Chen Xiuyan was afraid that they were worried, so she didn't refuse.

Now the sun was setting and it wasn't very hot. Chen Xiuyan slowly looked at the county town she came to for the first time. Compared with the county town of Yijiang County, the city of Yi County was relatively smaller.

Uncle Chen respected Chen Xiuyan very much, and introduced to her as he walked, "The most famous thing in Chen Dafu's county is their fried rice cakes. Mung bean noodle pancakes are filled with eggs and rice dumplings, and then brushed with some sauce. It is very fragrant. Doctor Chen Would you like to buy one and try it?"

Pancake fruit, Chen Xiuyan knew what it was as soon as she heard it, not to mention she was really hungry.

Chen Bo led Chen Xiuyan to a small stall, bought one for her, and scrambled to pay for her.

"Dr. Chen, don't argue with me. Because of Dr. Chen's relationship, the wages of the servants in our palace have risen a bit. I can afford a fried rice." Uncle Chen said with a smile.

"Hey, that pair of girls who are exactly the same is here again. In this hot day, if you don't bury them, who are you going to smoke in the street?"

"At such a young age, who would dare to want it except for a child? You have two more mouths all of a sudden."

"I don't even want to be a child. It costs a lot of money before I'm educated. If no one wants it, I can only go to that lowly place."

……

Chen Xiuyan listened to the bustle around, and saw two dirty children in the distance at a glance, one was pulling the mat vigorously, the other was pushing hard behind, and when they reached the corner of a street, they carefully put the straw mat, Then he knelt in front of the mat and saw that there should be a person wrapped in the shape of the mat.

"But those two children are really sensible, and they know how to repay their kindness. Hey, if my family is richer, I might buy them."

"That's right, the Hongxi group disbanded because of the leader's death, and so many people left, only these two little ones remained, and they wanted to sell themselves to bury the leader."

"If they are so young, how can they live if they don't sell themselves? Maybe they want to use this name to sell more. Where is the theater troupe? Such a young child has long learned to look."

Chen Xiuyan found that no matter how the people passing by them talked, the expressions of the two children did not change much, and they would not cry pitifully to passers-by, just kneeling upright.
