The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 295 My Family Has Countless Cousins
Li Rong, Duke of Hanyang County, that is, the young man, after hearing the boy's report, muttered to himself: "Princess? Did you marry the Cui family? Well, let me think about it..."

Li Rong squinted his eyes halfway, as if he was thinking about it, and he smiled after a while: "Yes, I remembered, the princess's daughter, Princess Xiangcheng, married Cui's son, and Concubine Yang's granddaughter, Princess Nanping, also married. For the Cui family, I just don’t know who the lady of the princess is outside.”

No matter who they are, they are all his cousins, and if it is purely about blood relationship, Li Rong and Nanping are closer. Nanping's biological mother is Li Rong's cousin, and she has not yet released five clothes.

And Princess Changle is separated from Li Rong by another layer. His Majesty Li Er and Li Rong's grandfather are brothers, and when it comes to Xiao Nan, they are even further apart.

The young servant listened to the master's self-talk, tilted his head and thought for a while, and said: "Well, I heard what the gentleman said, and I remembered that Wang Da said just now that the princess of Xiangcheng is here. She should be the daughter of the eldest princess."

Li Rong was stunned for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Whoever she is, anyway, it has nothing to do with me. I still have to go tomorrow, so it's better to rest early."

As he spoke, Li Rong yawned, and ordered the servant to help him untie his hair, and then he got ready to sleep.

Xiao Nan outside didn't know that there was a cousin not far from her. Although the relationship was far away, he was still a relative.

At this moment, she was frowning and looking at the so-called 'upper room'.

Yuzan knew her princess very well, and seeing her deeply frowning, she knew that she was very dissatisfied with the room in the post house, so she asked tentatively: "My lady, this room seems a little rough, why don't you go back to the ox cart first, and the maid will bring you Someone rearrange?!"

Xiao Nan looked around, and finally shook his head resolutely: "Forget it, Changsheng and I should spend the night in the bullock cart."

She is so picky, not because of herself, but because her two children are still young, and they live in a house where any kind of people may live in, so she is really afraid that the children will get some kind of disease.Look at the quilt, it looks clean, but the smell is really not that good, even if it is replaced by the one brought by home, but the bed, and the faint musty smell from the surrounding corners, made Xiao Nan even more worried while covering his nose.

Or her own ox cart is cleaner and safer. Anyway, when she customized the carriage, she considered the problem of staying overnight in it, so the carriage was designed to be very comfortable.

And in order to prevent rain leakage and other problems, when she designed the carriage, she specially added a layer of iron sheet on the outer layer of the carriage, painted the iron sheet, and finally covered the top of the carriage with a waterproof tarpaulin.

The original wooden carriage + iron sheet + tarpaulin... It can be said that this carriage, except that it looks like an ox cart carriage, is very close to the car carriage of later generations.

Not to mention the heavy snow, even after driving for several days in the rainstorm, there will be no rain or water seepage in the compartment.

As for keeping warm, Xiao Nan has also thought about it, she has already prepared several thick quilts, and the compartment is lit with smoked cages, it is definitely warmer than the so-called upper room in the post house.

"Yes, the maidservant will report back to the Lord."

Saying that, Yuhan bowed and retreated.

Over there, Mrs. Wu was not very satisfied with the room. Although her carriage compartment was not as comfortable as Xiao Nan's, it was better than the guest house in the post house. She heard the maid said that Xiao Nan would spend the night in the ox cart, so she also ordered someone to go Find your husband and tell him that she and her son will also spend the night in the carriage.

When the lady spoke, the two gentlemen of the Cui family had to obey.

As a result, the servants were divided into two parts and got busy one after another. One part was busy tidying up the room so that the lord and the butlers could rest earlier, and the other part was busy arranging shifts and arranging manpower for night patrols.

As for Xiao Nan's servants and servants, they also got busy, first let the coachman untie the frame from the ox, and then fix the carriage on the big bluestone in the courtyard of the post house.

Then, several strong women opened the back door of the carriage, pulled off the wooden board on the top of the carriage, and carefully placed it on the long seat of the carriage.

The wooden plank was also specially prepared by Xiao Nan. The wooden plank is very thick, almost as thick as a regular bed plank, and its width is only half a foot narrower than the width of the entire carriage. On the long seat, it not only ensures the width, but also ensures the stability.

Then spread felt blankets and cotton mattresses, and finally spread sheets, unfold the plain quilt, and put one big, two small, and three pillows.

In this way, a simple yet comfortable bed is laid.

Then another servant girl covered the burnt charcoal basin with a smoke cage, and carefully stuffed it into the empty aisle under the middle of the bed to ensure the temperature in the carriage.

This is not enough, the sliding door of the small room at the rear of the carriage has been opened, and two charcoal basins have been burned early.

On Yuhan's side, she also arranged for a maid to watch the night.

Around the bullock cart, Cui Youbo also arranged twenty vigils. They lit a fire, warmed up the fire, and took the time to eat, and kept their weapons not far away.

"..."

Wang Da waited for the guards in the post house to stare dumbfounded at the busyness of the Cui family members, and smacked their tongues in their hearts: Tsk tsk, this is the real aristocratic family, and they are so particular about going out.

Wang Da has stayed in this post house for half his life. He is very clear about the living conditions of the post house. Although it is not luxurious, it is much better than the residences of ordinary people. Stop talking.

But at this moment, after seeing the actions of the Cui family, Wang Da realized that the room that he regarded as the "upper room" was not even as good as a carriage in the eyes of a real nobleman.

Alas, it hurt my self-esteem too much!
In the yard, the members of the Cui family were packing up the carriages, building a fire, and busy with the guards, which suddenly turned the originally quiet snowy night into a lively scene.

Li Rong in the guest house at the side just fell asleep when he was awakened by the noise outside the window. He angrily sat up on the bed and looked out through the straight window, just in time to see the busy figures of the Cui family.

After listening for a while, he realized that it turned out that the princess of Xiangcheng disliked the mess in the guest house, and would rather spend the night in the carriage than go to the guest house, which turned the quiet courtyard into a busy market.

Li Rong's brows were twisted into twists, and he thought to himself: It is said that the eldest princess is gentle and virtuous, not as arrogant and indulgent as other noble daughters of the royal family, it is impossible to imagine that there is such a flamboyant daughter.Alas, it really insulted the eldest princess's virtuous name.

Xiao Nan didn't know that the decision she made because of her love for her children, in the eyes of Li Rong, a handsome cousin, turned into a luxurious and wanton playboy.

But there is one thing Xiao Nan knows, that is, there are several of her 'cousins' in this small inn.

The thing is like this, Xiao Nan waited for the maids to make the beds, and then ordered Chang Sheng and A Yuan to be taken back to the carriage. After chatting with Uncle Cui who came to check the situation, she also entered the carriage.

In the cubicle, Yuzan was holding a quilt and preparing to stay overnight. Seeing Xiao Nan come in, she seemed to casually report the news that Hong Hua had just heard one by one——

"Today is also a coincidence. In addition to us, there are several nobles who came to stay in the post house, and three of them are 'relatives' of the princess."

Xiao Nan placed Changsheng by his side, and A Yuan placed Changsheng on the outside. She was lying on her side, just in time to hold the two children in her arms.

Xu Shi played so much in the afternoon that the two little ones were moved around without being woken up, and they were still falling asleep with their arms and legs spread out.

Xiao Nan patted the two children lightly, and asked in a low voice, "Oh? My relatives? What kind of relatives are they?"

Xiao Nan could hear the teasing in Yuzan's tone, so he guessed that this so-called 'relative' would not be her real relative, it was very likely that she was a close cousin.

Seeing Xiao Nan's family lying down, Yuzan covered the charcoal basin in the compartment with a bamboo smoked cage, and then covered the bamboo cage with indigo linen cloth, and the firelight of the two charcoal basins was immediately covered.As a result, the entire carriage was also darkened.

Seeing that there was no fire in the carriage, the guards outside all fell silent, and those who hadn't finished eating all quietly ate.After eating, they sat quietly around the fire, seemingly warming up to the fire, but actually paying attention to the movement around them vigilantly... No matter what they did, everyone tried not to make the slightest noise.

In fact, they were overthinking, the thick quilted cotton cloth was pasted in Xiao Nan's compartment, one is for keeping warm, and the other is for sound insulation.

In addition, they were all a certain distance away from the carriage, so as long as their voices were lower than the normal volume, the people in the carriage would not hear them.

In the same way, people outside could not hear the whispered conversation between Xiao Nan and Yuzan in the carriage.

Yuzan gathered the quilt on her body, and said with a smile: "Safflower has inquired about it. One is a gentleman from the side branch of the Yang family. He is about the same age as him. It is said that he is quite talented in his hometown, but he has not yet entered an official position. Beijing is for the spring of the coming year."

Xiao Nan smiled slightly, this cousin is a relative of her great-aunt's in-law's family, the relationship is not usually far away.

In the darkness, when Yuzan heard Xiao Nan's chuckle, she couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, and continued: "The other is the gentleman of the Li family in Guanlong, who is five or six years older than him. It is said that he is a free and easy man. Even though he brought only one attendant, he was very impressive, and the postman even got a golden nude from him as a reward."

Xiao Nan was startled, Jin Nuanzi?In the current time when gold and silver are scarce, those who can reward people with gold nudes are by no means ordinary officials, at least they must be relatives of the emperor, or nobles, and even aristocratic families may not be so generous.

Of course, the aristocratic family has always disliked the vulgarity of gold and silver.

This cousin surnamed Li is very likely to be a person of status.

Immediately, Xiao Nan laughed secretly again, what was the identity of that person had nothing to do with her, he was just an indistinguishable stranger.

Xiao Nan didn't take Li Rong to heart, and she never thought about what kind of entanglements she would have with him in her future life. Instead, she continued to ask the next cousin: "Whose relative is the third one?"

While chatting, Xiao Nan sighed, alas, our family has a lot of cousins, you can meet several if you live in a post house, I hope these people are just irrelevant passers-by, don't cause any trouble for her...
