Concubine

Chapter 174

It is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the wind is biting. After saying goodbye to Gu Fuyin and others, as soon as she left the city gate, the little girl Yuechan put down the thick cloth curtain in front of the car shed, opened the rear window curtain for ventilation, and then opened the A pot of charcoal fire in the carport was burning vigorously.

The charcoal fire is a kind of stove specially used for heating on ancient carriages. It is made of brass, covered with a lid, and there is a top-like device underneath, which can always keep balance in the bumps, so the charcoal fire inside will not be thrown out. .

This way, the carport is neither stuffy nor cold.

It's just that it's not a day or two to travel three thousand miles. The journey is boring, how to pass it.Yang Qiuchi and Song Yuner chatted for a while, feeling a little sleepy, so they snuggled down on the quilt and dozed off.

Song Yun'er had never traveled so far before, she was very curious, she leaned on the window and looked out.The outside is full of desolation, the branches and leaves are withered, a gust of cold wind is blowing, and the smoke and dust are billowing.Occasionally, one or two farmers shivering in the cold wind can be seen picking up something in the field.

After watching it for a while, I felt bored, so I leaned on the back window to watch again.I saw that the carriage in which Mrs. Bai, mother and daughter were sitting was bumping very badly, and it seemed that the quality was not very good.As the carriage bumped, the front windshield cloth curtain was rolled up by the cold wind from time to time, and the windshield equipment of this carriage was not very good.

The carriages of Master Jin and Master Long were also custom-made by Feng Xiaoxue. Although they were not as luxurious as Yang Qiuchi's, they were much more comfortable and cold-proof than ordinary carriages.And Mrs. Bai's carriage is an ordinary carriage that Ying Tianfu found temporarily, which is relatively simple.

Song Yuner shook Yang Qiuchi: "Hey~! Brother, wake up! Wake up!"

Yang Qiuchi's eyes were sleepy: "What's the matter? The carriage is shaking me comfortably, and I'm dozing off."

"Don't sleep!" Song Yun'er lay on the back window and looked behind again, "Madam Bai and their carriage can't keep out the wind and cold, they may be freezing!"

Now Yang Qiuchi woke up from his doze, got up and lay down on the back window to watch.

The little maid Yuechan also came over.Before she could see it, Yang Qiuchi yelled, "Stop the car quickly, let's go and have a look!"

Yang Qiuchi's carriage stopped, and so did the entire convoy.

Yang Qiuchi jumped out of the carriage, ran a few steps to the back, picked up the curtain of the shed, and saw Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei cuddling together. Mrs. Bai was wearing the fox fur coat that Yang Qiuchi gave them in Jinyiwei Prison .

Although the two of them were dressed thickly, the weather was gloomy and the sun was not shining, and the wind was blowing. They didn't have that kind of heater in their car, so they were freezing.

When Bai Sumei saw Yang Qiuchi, a gleam of joy flashed in her eyes, and then they dimmed again.

Madam Bai looked at Yang Qiuchi and forced a smile: "Master Yang, what's the matter?"

"Madam Bai, it's too cold in your car, you have to find a way to keep warm, otherwise, you two will definitely get sick from the cold when it's nighttime."

Song Yuner and Yuechan also followed, Yang Qiuchi asked Yuechan, "Do we have any extra heaters in our luggage?"

Yuechan shook her head: "I prepared two, one for our car, and one for the two masters. These things are heavy and take up space, so the old lady and grandma only prepared these two. "

This is troublesome, if she contributes herself, Song Yun'er has martial arts and is not afraid of the cold, but the little girl Yuechan is going to be cold, the most important thing is that what she fears the most is the cold, so she will definitely not be able to bear it.

It's unreasonable to give them those of the two masters, so what should I do?

Mrs. Bai rubbed her hands together and said, "Young Master Yang, it's okay, we're fine, we're wearing thick clothes."

Bai Sumei glanced at Yang Qiuchi, lowered her head, and said nothing.Her fair face was flushed red from the cold.

Yang Qiuchi was thinking about what to do, and Song Yuner said behind him: "Brother, why don't we just ask Mrs. Bai and the others to come to our carriage? Anyway, our carriage is spacious. There will be no problem for two more."

Yang Qiuchi had this intention, but he was worried that Song Yun'er would be supercilious, and he was also afraid that other people would talk too much.Now that Song Yuner has spoken out, this is the best way, and everyone will be lively together.Yang Qiuchi was worried about being bored during the journey.Immediately said: "Yun'er's suggestion is very good, Mrs. Bai, Miss Bai, please sit in our car."

Mrs. Bai still wanted to decline, seeing Bai Sumei was so cold, she was very distressed, she swallowed the words again, and only thanked her again and again.

The little maid, Yuechan, quickly helped Mrs. Bai out of the carriage and onto the carriage in front of the big house.He came back and took the clothes of the two of them.Everyone got into the carriage and continued on their way.

After Bai Sumei and the others got into the carriage, they helped her mother find a corner and sat cross-legged.

It was really warm in the big carriage, Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei recovered quickly.

Yang Qiuchi said to Yuechan: "Yuechan, you have to serve Mrs. Bai's mother and daughter more along the way."

Yuechan used to be Mrs. Bai's maid, and later gave it to Yang Qiuchi, of course she knew how to serve her.He agreed: "Yes, young master!"

"No, no, this is impossible!" Mrs. Bai waved her hands again and again. Their mother and daughter received such care from Yang Qiuchi, no different from free people.

Yang Qiuchi persuaded her a few words, but Mrs. Bai just refused, there was nothing she could do, so she had to give up.

I thought it would be more crowded, but when Bai Sumei got into the carriage, she didn't say a word, she just sat cross-legged and recited scriptures silently.

Just now Song Yuner and the little girl Yuechan were in the car, Yang Qiuchi didn't regard them as women, so he was free to stretch his arms and legs, but now Mrs. Bai and Bai Sumei were in the car, Yang Qiuchi was a little at a loss.

Mr. Bai Qian originally wanted to promise Bai Sumei to Yang Qiuchi, but the marriage failed only because he asked Yang Qiuchi to divorce his wife, so that Bai Sumei was so sad and desperate that she unintentionally escaped into Buddhism, and then the Bai family suffered a catastrophe. Qiuchi saved the lives of Mrs. Bai's mother and daughter, but Yang Qiuchi still felt that he owed Bai Sumei something.

Mrs. Bai is very grateful to Yang Qiuchi now, she just wants her daughter to be safe and well, but she dare not expect Yang Qiuchi to accept Bai Sumei as a concubine.

So although there were five people in the big carriage, none of them spoke, and it was very quiet for a while.All that remained was the grunting of the carriage wheels and the whine of the cold wind.

There is no bench on this carriage, they all sit cross-legged, the ancients were very used to this sitting posture, but Yang Qiuchi seldom sat like this, but since they came up, Yang Qiuchi could only learn to sit cross-legged honestly, after a while , My back hurts and my legs are numb.

Yuechan was sitting next to Yang Qiuchi, saw Yang Qiuchi twisting and changing positions, guessing that he was not used to sitting like this, so she pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Master, you can straighten your legs, and Yuechan will rub your legs for you." .”

If Yang Qiuchi had just crossed over to the Ming Dynasty, he would have been shocked, but after so many days, Yang Qiuchi has gradually become accustomed to the decadent life of a small landlord in this evil feudal society. It's really uncomfortable to be curled up, and after taking a look at Bai Sumei, seeing that Wei Wei is silently chanting with her eyes closed, she wants to quietly stretch her legs behind Yuechan.

Yuechan chuckled, hugged Yang Qiuchi's legs, and lifted them in front of her.

Yang Qiuchi was embarrassed, but it was hard to take it back.Fortunately, I was wearing thick white socks, and I changed them every day, and I didn't have athlete's foot, and it didn't smell bad, so I wouldn't smell this beautiful little girl.

Yuechan gently massaged Yang Qiuchi's calf and feet, which was very comfortable.With Yuechan's massage, Yang Qiuchi gradually became less nervous.

Seeing that Bai Sumei had been reciting scriptures, she didn't want to disturb her. When she finally finished a paragraph, she interrupted and asked, "Miss Bai, can I ask you a question?"

Bai Sumei opened her eyes, feeling a little shy, stretched out her orchid-like fingers and gently stroked her hair at the temples, her big bright eyes flickered, and said, "Sir, please tell me."

Yang Qiuchi sat up: "What is the name of Miss Bai's monastic name?"

"The Dharma name is Three Tribulations."

"Three catastrophes?" Yang Qiuchi thought for a while, and immediately understood the meaning of this dharma name, which refers to her three catastrophes and three narrow escapes.

Song Yun'er interjected: "Miss Bai, you have suffered three catastrophes, no, counting the last one, it will be four times, and they were all saved by my brother. You really have a destiny."

Bai Sumei nodded, her face was slightly flushed, she didn't know if she was imagining Yang Qiuchi giving her sex, or recalling the scene when Yunyashan couldn't help throwing herself into Yang Qiuchi's arms.

Mrs. Bai took over the conversation: "That's right. In addition to being implicated in the rebellion for no reason this time, our Bai family suffered four disasters before and after, all of which were saved by Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang has been very kind to my Bai family."

Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "Madam Bai, don't say that, I'm a little embarrassed."

Song Yuner asked Bai Sumei: "Miss Bai, why don't you read the scriptures when you recite the scriptures? Can you remember such a long scripture?"

Yang Qiuchi interjected: "Yun'er, you are very skilled in martial arts, how do you remember so many moves?"

"Practice repeatedly. I will remember it after a long time." Song Yun'er was a little proud, and then asked Bai Sumei: "Miss Bai has not been a monk for long, can she memorize so many scriptures?"

Bai Sumei looked at the flickering charcoal fire in the copper stove in the middle of the carport, and said leisurely: "In the mountain temple, what else can you do besides chanting scriptures?"
