Modern Couples' Life in Women's Society

Chapter 85 On The Road

Xiao Tong listened silently to the hustle and bustle of the downtown, the carriage slowly drove across the street, out of the city gate, and drifted away.

"Miss, this is the first time for Qingsheng to travel far away. I wonder if Maoling is the same as our Erythronia?" Compared with Xiao Tong's silence, Qingsheng is more excited.

"Maoling is colder than Erythrina, and the vegetation is not as much as that of Erythrina. The climate and vegetation are more like that of Qi State. Qi State always harassed Maoling, and there were constant wars. Difficult.” It’s been nearly half a year since I came to this different world, and Xiao Tong is no longer ignorant of questions. She has a good attitude towards learning, and the learning conditions are very good. Not to mention Mu Fan, Mr. Lin and Shi Gong behind him taught her a lot a lot of.

"When Qingsheng was young, he always heard adults scaring children, saying that people in Qi State were murderous, very cruel, and they specially asked children to cook and eat. At that time, Qingsheng was very afraid." When Qingsheng talked about Qi State, he remembered his childhood. matter.

"Heh... the people of Qi are stronger than us of Yan, and their customs are different from ours. Many people don't know much, so they say that." Xiao Tong felt that almost everyone would be made up by adults when they were young. Existence to scare, the people of Qi are playing this role now.

Xiao Tong thinks that this world should exist in parallel with the modern world. She has observed and understood that the relationship between the earth and the sun and the moon exists here as well, but the part of the earth seems to be a little different.The ocean area is larger than the land, but the climate and other related aspects are similar.

Erythrina is cold in winter and hot in summer. It was still early in the morning. Xiao Tong was sitting in the carriage, wearing only light clothes, but still sweating. He thought of blowing the wind outside the carriage, but the sun hanging in the sky made Xiao Tong give up the idea. .

Xiao Tong felt that the climate and topography of Erythrina was somewhat similar to that of Ningxia, Shaanxi, Gansu, but with more vegetation, and the winter was not as cold.

The bumpy carriage made Xiao Tong very uncomfortable, but he couldn't, so he had to talk to Qing Sheng to divert his attention.At noon, the carriage stopped.

"Miss, it's time for lunch. There's a teahouse here, so I can take a rest." The son of Xiao Tong's bodyguard, Gui Zao, came over when Qingsheng jumped off the carriage, and reported to Xiao Tong who was getting off the carriage.

"Well, it's hard work." Xiao Tong nodded, got out of the carriage to go to the toilet, washed his hands, and sat down on the extremely clean table and chairs to drink tea.

"Miss, the people in the kitchen came early, and they have already borrowed the kitchen of the teahouse to prepare lunch, and it will be ready in a while." Zigui reported after Xiao Tong sat down, Xiao Tong was alone at the table Sitting, the other staff stood in a row far away, and Qingsheng also stood aside when he saw this situation when he came back.

Xiao Tong had a headache, watching the owner of Ren Teahouse shrinking aside, secretly staring at her, his eyes were full of fear and alienation, and a little puzzled.

Xiao Tong likes comfort and convenience, unless it is necessary, after the birthday celebration, all her previous clothes are piled aside, and she only makes some simple clothes to wear on weekdays.Today, she went out for a long trip, so she wore a light blue short-front cotton dress. The cuffs were rolled up to her elbows in hot weather, and she didn't have a condescending demeanor.No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the noble person in the teahouse owner's impression, but in fact, those people who dress better than her are standing there respectfully.

"Celebrate your birthday, come and sit. Others find a table and sit by themselves. Don't interfere with the boss's business." Xiao Tong ordered lightly.

"Yes, Miss." Respectfully responded, although there were objections, no one dared to disobey what Xiao Tong said now.

"Miss, are you tired?" Qing Sheng sat on Xiao Tong's head and asked worriedly. After only a long time, she felt a little tired.

"Fortunately, once this teahouse passes by, there will only be inns within the Maoling area. I heard from my husband that you have to arrange the time properly on the way, otherwise you will have to sleep in the wild." Along the way There are few inns, and the transportation is not convenient. It is always inconvenient to travel far during this season.

"That's it..." Qingsheng muttered softly. She can relax in front of Xiao Tong more than anyone else now. Except for resting at night or when something happens, Qingsheng and Xiao Tong are inseparable. She has also grasped Xiao Tong's temperament. Here comes such a nice lady.

Zigui Ziqi has turned a blind eye to their way of getting along from being unaccustomed to being accustomed to it now, but their attitude towards Xiao Tong has never changed.People who practice martial arts need perseverance, and this perseverance is also reflected in life to a certain extent.

After talking, the lunch was served, and the people who followed along the way were all selected by the waiter Yan, and each performed their own duties. Although Xiao Tong admired enjoyment, but now he felt that it was a bit too much.Come to think of it, Prince Su didn't have as much trouble going out as she did. Shifu Yan was very worried about Xiao Tong's first time traveling alone, and he ordered and asked his followers. Qingsheng saw Shifu Yan a few days before departure. Just wanted to run, which shows how good Fu Yan's nagging skills are.

There are not many people coming and going on this road, but it is not empty. After a while, someone came to the door, because Xiao Tong ordered that they should not affect the boss's business, and the boss received the guests when he saw them.In a short while, there were two groups of people in the teahouse, all of whom seemed to be businessmen.

The merchant’s eyes are poisonous, and he saw the row of carriages on the side of the road long before he entered the door. When he entered the inside and saw the situation, he knew that it was a nobleman traveling, so although there were many people in the teahouse, it was not noisy, only the sound of drinking tea and eating .

Xiao Tong ate quickly, thinking to finish eating early and go on the road earlier, she put down the bowl after a while, and the birthday celebration was almost finished, and other people's meals were served later than them, and they only started eating for a while , Xiao Tong drank a few sips of tea, then stood up and walked outside the teahouse, Qingsheng let others eat normally, and followed Xiao Tong himself.

After standing for 3 minutes, I saw a group of children yelling over, followed by a middle-aged man, who kept repeating to remind the children to be safe.The children in the front were very excited when they saw the carriage, chatting and discussing enthusiastically around the carriage.

The carriage driver of Xiao Tong's group was squatting beside him for a meal. Seeing that the master was beside him, he didn't say anything, so he ignored the child. The man looked around, but he didn't seem to find anyone. Seeing Xiao Tong standing there, he came all the way .

"Girl, are you from Prince Su's mansion?" Seeing Xiao Tong's gentleness, the middle-aged man came over to ask, his face was full of anxiety, as if there was something urgent.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Xiao Tong replied doubtfully.

"Hey, that's fine. Then can you help me find my wife, who works in the kitchen. I need to find her urgently." The man thought that Xiao Tong was also a servant, so he wanted to let her He didn't dare to go into the teahouse to find someone for help.
