Chapter 431

Are rivers and lakes far away?
Not far away.

It's all around.

Are the rivers and lakes very close?

not close.

You cannot see its shore at a glance.

Li Chenan originally had great expectations for Jiang Hu.

But at this moment, he suddenly realized that this expectation is like going to the ends of the earth in his previous life... As great as the expectation is, so is the disappointment.

Wouldn't it be nice to stay in a warm room?
Even if you travel, sitting in an airtight carriage with a charcoal fire, soft cushions, warm blankets, and that pleasing girl beside you... Wouldn't it be more comfortable?
But now?

The wind is like a knife.

Sweeping the sky and snow.

It seems that endless anger is pouring out, and it is slashing the vast earth crazily.

It was as if everything in the world was to be chopped up and destroyed, and then buried in this frenzied snow.

Don't say that this is the time of the New Year, even on weekdays, in such bad weather, there are few pedestrians on the official road.

But today, on this official road leading from Guangling City to Pingjiang City, in the midst of the blizzard, five horsemen came against the wind and snow.

Of course they are Li Chenan and his party.

Five horses, five vigorous, snow-white horses!

Five people, five people from the rivers and lakes wearing black clothes and fur hats covering half of their faces!

But one horse had no one.

There happened to be two people riding on one horse!
Xiao Baozi has never ridden a horse, but she has ridden a donkey.

It only took her half a day's journey to get familiar with how to ride a horse.

Li Chenan had never ridden a horse.

He also spent half a day walking... and then gave up riding alone.

He rides with Xiao Baozi.

He was right behind Xiao Baozi.

He hugged Xiao Baozi's small waist tightly, and hid his face behind Xiao Baozi——

windy.

Big snow.

He felt more comfortable with Xiao Baozi standing in front of him.

It's just that the horse ran so fast that it made his buttocks hurt.

He suddenly swayed and sneezed again.

He didn't think that someone was cursing him and cutting him into pieces in his heart.

He just felt that even that was cold.

The rivers and lakes are too bad!
The rivers and lakes are not so easy to mix.

But this is just the beginning.

So, his hands hugged Xiao Baozi's waist even tighter.

This made Xiao Baozi's heart tremble slightly.

She is sensitive.

Fortunately, it is winter and I wear a lot.

But even so, she couldn't bear it.

She is not cold.

She has a fever!
"Hey……!"

Xiao Baozi turned his head and roared, Li Chenan raised his head in a jerk.

"Are you comfortable?"

"……good!"

"Don't hug too tightly!"

These four words Xiao Baozi's voice was very low, the horse ran fast, and the wind and snow were very heavy, Li Chenan didn't hear clearly.

"What did you say?"

He raised his voice and asked.

Xiao Baozi can't answer such a sentence at the same time, can he?

"Do you want to give up and go back?"

"……Do not!"

Xiao Baozi pursed his lips and smiled, this stubborn cow!

Good.

Because of his stubbornness, he will not give up easily.

A group of people rode horses and galloped in the wind and snow. At about noon, they came to a small town.

The town is small.

The name of the town is Huangping Town.

Two rows of low and dilapidated houses are on both sides of the official road, not long, only about thirty feet long.

They slowed down on the streets of the small town.

Let the horse move forward slowly.

Not long after, they stopped in front of a slightly nicer inn.

Amu looked back at Li Chenan, Li Chenan nodded.

When the five dismounted, Li Chenan raised his eyes and saw the broken flagpole waving in the wind and snow.

The four characters of Yuelai Inn can be vaguely seen on the flag of Lielie.

Li Chenan grinned.

It seems that there are Yuelai Inns everywhere.

He stepped into the inn, and there was only a person who looked like a second child taking a nap around the stove.

They sat in front of a table, and Li Chenan yelled, "Little Er, serve the wine!"

Xiao Er who was dozing off was taken aback, as if his dream had been awakened, his face was full of displeasure.

He glanced at Li Chen'an and the others, and was not frightened by this group of people wearing black clothes and covering their faces. People in the Jianghu saw too much, that's all.

All of them seem to be cool, but they don't have two copper coins in their pockets.

Far worse than a merchant.

He stood up reluctantly.

He walked to the table, took off a pitch-black cloth towel from his shoulders, wiped the table casually and pretended, and said: "Only Huapingchun, very expensive, ten taels of silver a catty, do you want to drink?"

Li Chenan was startled, and his eyes widened immediately.

When did my Huapingchun sell to such a small place?

He was curious, so he took out a silver coin from his pocket and slapped it on the table.

"One catty first!"

When the little girl saw the shining silver, she weighed it in her heart, at least ten taels!
This new year's day, this group of people is hurrying, the white horse outside is fat and strong... rich master!

A smile suddenly appeared on his face, he leaned over to take the ingot of silver, and asked very carelessly: "Then what would the guest order to go with the wine?"

Li Chenan waved his hand again: "Bring some of your specialty dishes, hurry up, we have to hurry after eating!"

"Good! Ten taels of silver!"

"...Can you eat it?"

"No, the shop rules. I'm afraid of being tricked by the so-called people in the rivers and lakes. They run away after drinking and eating. What can we do?"

It makes sense.

Li Chenan took out another ingot of silver.

The little second immediately took it with a charming smile, and then asked casually: "I saw that you are the young master of a certain rich family... those horses of yours are all first-class horses, I guess they will run away?" Shaolu, you should eat some good concentrate...After all, horses are also afraid of the cold, right?"

This also makes sense.

"Then you feed my horses too!"

"Okay, ten taels of silver."

"... Horse feed is so expensive?"

"Master, you don't know this, but the food in our Ning country is now at a sky-high price!"

"The horse's feed is not grass! It's wheat, beans, bean cakes, etc. It's better than the food that many people eat!"

"What's more, this horse can eat a lot more than people!"

This also makes sense.

Li Chenan took out another ingot of ten taels of silver from his bosom.

The waiter took it, holding three ingots of silver in his hand, and shouted joyfully at the back: "Boss...he's here for business...big business...!"

A fat man in a leather jacket ran in from the backyard like the wind.

The first thing he saw were the three ingots of silver in the little second hand.

The first thing he did was put the three ingots of silver into his arms, and then he looked at Li Chenan and others and grinned:
"VIP!"

"Wait a moment."

"I'm going to make a table of delicious food for all the distinguished guests!"

"Zhu Lao Liu, hurry up and serve wine to the guest officer!"

"Take the stove to the guest, don't freeze the guest!"

A jar of wine was placed on the table.

Li Chenan looked at the wine jar.

A piece of red paper was pasted on the wine jar, and three large characters were written crookedly on the red paper——Hua Ping Chun!

Li Chenan's eyes widened:
"Are you Huapingchun?"

The fat boss was cutting the stewed beef quickly. Hearing this, he turned around and smiled honestly, "It's like a fake Huapingchun!"

This is so special!

It costs you some money to fake it!

Huapingchun's jar is not like this.

The words Huapingchun were not pasted on red paper either!

It is engraved on the jar!

The words that are full of flowers are still used!
He patted open the mud seal, and there was no fragrance of Huapingchun wine at all.

This is the worst wine on the street that costs ten cents a catty.

Wang Zhenghaoxuan suddenly laughed.

Amu's knife-like cold face did not tense after all, he said a word:

"This is the price of entering the rivers and lakes for the first time!"

"You were cheated out of about 28 taels of silver!"

When Xiao Baozi heard this, he was not happy.

This stupid cow!

This money must be brought back!
So, her slender eyes looked at the back of the fat boss, and she narrowed her eyes slowly.
