Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 49 Guilty Conscience
  As soon as Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, the donkey cart stopped abruptly, and all the children in the carriage swayed unprepared.

"Tianshu, what's wrong?" Hong Xiaoduo reacted and quickly opened the front window of the carriage and looked around and asked.

There is nothing unusual around. Could it be that there is something on the road?
  Tianshu chirped: "No, no, it's nothing. There was just a pothole on the road. I tried to avoid it, but..."

So this is what happened. Hong Xiaoduo understood and quickly comforted him: "Don't blame yourself. We have only had this donkey for a few days, how can we get familiar with it so quickly."

"Well, Tianshu knows." Tianshu responded dully, with his back to the front window of the carriage. Hong Xiaoduo didn't see his sullen little face and melancholy expression.

Hong Xiaoduo heard something strange in his voice, but didn't think much about it. She just thought he was blaming himself for not catching the bus just now.

After closing the front window and sitting down, I quickly asked the children if they had been hurt by the impact just now. The children all shook their heads and said no.

After such an interruption, Hong Xiaoduo did not continue the previous topic, but remembered that he had been careless. Tianshu would be colder than them if he sat outside while driving, so he should buy him a cotton cloak.

When I think about it, I feel that there are too many things I want to buy, and it will cost money. Now that I have gold and silver, I can't just buy whatever I want. What if I run out of money?

Is she going to take her seven children and make a living as a busker in the streets? Or, setting up a stall to earn living expenses?
  No, you still have to tell the old man at the Science and Technology Museum and let him find a way. Why not use high-tech helpers? Isn’t that a waste?

The donkey cart was swaying along the official road. Tianshu was so preoccupied that he didn't even notice that a group of people were following behind the donkey cart.

In the car, Hong Xiaoduo waited around where he was at about the time, opened the car curtains and took a look, making Tianshu stop.

The album showed that there should be a mountain in front of this place, because she had encountered the man who blocked the road before, so she had to be more cautious when encountering this kind of location again.

Should we cross this section of the road while it's still dark, or should we wait until dawn to set off? Which one is more secure?

Just when I thought of this, I realized that the group of people parked not far behind me was the old man and his guards that I met during my lunch break.

Just say why you didn't notice whether they passed by or not, it turned out they were behind!
  She was just thinking about whether to go over and say hello to the old man, when she saw a guard coming over.

"My lord, I would like to ask my dear lady, are you taking a rest here, or are you planning to spend the night here?" the guard asked as he approached.

After hearing his question, Hong Xiaoduo thought for a moment and said, "I don't know what you adults are planning. If you plan to travel overnight, then we will follow you."

The guard was startled when he heard this, because he didn't know what his master planned.

He hurriedly said to wait a moment, then turned around and went back to the carriage to ask.

The carriage started to move, and when it passed Hong Xiaoduo, the old man in the carriage window smiled and said: "According to what I want, we have to pass through the forest ahead. If we don't delay any longer, if we go a little faster, we can pass through the forest by the end of Xu." section of the road, and then go forward about an hour and you’ll find a posthouse.”

Xu Shi? After listening to this, Hong Xiaoduo silently calculated in his mind that the modern equivalent of this time should be 19 o'clock to 21 o'clock, which is around nine o'clock in the evening.

After traveling for another hour, which is two hours in modern terms, around eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, we can stop and rest for the night.

"Okay, then follow my father-in-law." Hong Xiaoduo made his decision and responded.

"Well, wait a moment and let your donkey eat some more fodder." The old man said with a smile, while looking at the child who was feeding the donkey fodder. I don't know if he is old and his eyesight is not so good. , why do you feel that there is something wrong with the way that child looks at me, as if he is wary? Anyway, he doesn't look very happy.

No way, I am kind enough to take them along with me!
  Realizing that he was being watched by the old man, Tianshu turned his back with a guilty conscience.

After a while, Tianshu packed up the fodder, and several young ones also went to the convenience store and came back to prepare for the donkey cart. "Little madam, since we are traveling together, why not let them sit on my side, which is more spacious." The old man suggested, pointing to a few children who were about to get on the donkey cart.

Tianquan and the others looked at the grand carriage and then at Hong Xiaoduo.

"No, thank you for your kindness. My younger brothers and sisters are too young and naughty to ride in the same carriage with me. I might disturb you." Before Hong Xiaoduo could speak, Tianshu loudly refused.

Um? What's going on? What's wrong with this child? Are you worried about this old man? Hong Xiaoduo was a little confused.

Similarly, the children looked at Tianshu in confusion, only to see him staring. They were so frightened that they didn't care what happened to their elder brother, and climbed onto their donkey cart.

Hong Xiaoduo apologized to the old man with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, this kid is afraid of those little ones getting into trouble."

The old man glanced at Tianshu again and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, let's set off." After that, he ordered the guards to set off.

Hong Xiaoduo glanced at Tianshu, walked into the carriage without saying anything, found his own baggage, took out his cotton coat and handed it out toward the front window: "It will be cold at night, put it on."

Tianshu didn't dare to meet her eyes. He lowered his head and pursed his lips and took it, only to realize that it was not his cotton coat.

Hearing the sound of the car window closing behind him, he murmured in a low voice: "We will be very obedient and well-behaved. Why can't we follow you all the time?"

In the carriage, Hong Xiaoduo told the children that they would not stop to rest before arriving at the destination. If they were hungry, they would just eat by themselves. The food in the food box would be the same as what they had bought before, and they could eat whatever they wanted.

Hearing what she said, Yao Guang reached out to pull out a drawer of the food box. She remembered clearly that there was candy in it.

However, Tianxuan and Tianji, who were sitting opposite her, frowned and shook their heads at her.

Oh, Yao Guang remembered what his eldest brother said, he should listen to other brothers and sisters when he is not around.

If they don't obey, my mother will be angry and reject them.

"I didn't want to eat it, I just looked at the flowers engraved on it. It's so beautiful." Yao Guang said, using her extended little hand, she touched the food box twice symbolically, and quickly put it away. return.

This scene all fell in Hong Xiaoduo's eyes. He held back his smile and looked away. Poor Xiao Yaoguang, his reaction was quite quick despite his young age.

Not because he felt sorry for Yao Guangxiao, he took it upon himself to open the drawer and let her eat it.

One day in the future, these children might still be together, and she tried not to change some of the habits among the seven of them. As the youngest sister, she has to listen to her brother.

The seven children have been together since they were young, so Hong Xiaoduo did not want to separate them for adoption.

But what kind of opportunity would it be?
  "Mom, my eldest father has many people, and they all carry swords. It's okay." Seeing Hong Xiaoduo frowning slightly, Tianquan spoke to reassure him.

Hong Xiaoduo smiled and nodded, but still felt a little unsure.

Although the old man didn't know what kind of official he was, why did he travel with so many guards? Is it impressive? It’s not that…
