Chapter 269 Coincidence
Jiangdian Town is a post station on the road from Xiangyang to Xiangcheng. It has a large population and is very prosperous. After entering the town and seeing the lively crowd, Yunu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He and Pingping arrived at the largest inn, looking for
Stay in a clean room.
Watching the boy leave, Yunu hurriedly put the bundle on the bed. He looked around, opened the bundle and said, "I wonder if that guy Tang Zhe is playing any tricks! If I don't count carefully, I won't be at ease."
Pingping came up and together with Yunu, carefully counted the huizi given by Tang Zhe. After counting for a long time, she confirmed that it was indeed seven hundred and fifty.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Yunu said: "I didn't expect that Tang Zhe was sincere in giving money!"
Pingping said: "Sister, that guy has already found someone to follow us, and he wants to snatch it back. I think they brought the money here for emergencies, but they didn't expect that we would actually get it."
"Yeah, who would have thought of that?" Yunu sat next to Qian and was stunned for a while. "If it weren't for the eldest brother of the Luan family, we would all be dead."
After saying that, Yunu sat up suddenly and said: "No, we must have a good meal today! These days, I have been afraid day and night, but it is finally complete, how can I not celebrate!"
When the two of them arrived at the door, Yunu turned around and said, "No, I don't feel comfortable leaving this money in the house. But it's inconvenient to carry it with you."
Pingping said: "That's it, we can take turns watching. My sister will go out and I will stay in the room."
Yunu thought for a moment and said, "That's all we have to do. You wait a moment, I'll go out and buy some wine and meat and come back to eat."
After going out and walking on the street, Yunu felt that everything was fresh. Every pedestrian on the street had a kind face. The goods on the stalls all looked so bright and beautiful. Even the dogs on the street had a certain charm.
Very cute.
When they arrived at a dumpling shop, Yu Nu ordered two portions of dumplings. Then he went to a delicatessen on the side and bought a pound of cooked mutton. After looking around, he found that the delicatessen was still selling freshly mixed cold dishes. He ordered a portion of soy sauce.
Mixed mung bean sprouts, and asked for mixed lotus root.
Carrying the food she bought, Yu Nu went to the wine shop on the street. She ordered a jar of the best wine and bought a wine vessel.
Just as he was about to return to his place of residence, he suddenly heard someone say: "Madam, didn't you go away with Huang Yuanwai? Why do I see you here?"
Yu Nu was startled and hurriedly looked back. It turned out to be Lin Shengyuan. He was holding a gourd of wine and looked at himself in surprise.
Forcibly calming down, Yu Nu said: "I have other things to do, so I won't go with them anymore."
Lin Shengyuan said: "I don't know what it is? When you get here, I wonder if Tang Yuanwai is here?"
Yu Nu said: "No. He has business to attend to, so how can he come with us? We are the only two sisters here."
"Oh——" Lin Shengyuan nodded, feeling a little unbelieving.
Yu Nu ignored him and asked, "Yuan Wai didn't follow Huang Yuan Wai. Are you going home?"
Lin Shengyuan said: "Yes. Mr. Huang went to find another way out, so I had no choice but to go home. I arrived here yesterday, thinking that I couldn't go home empty-handed, so I stayed an extra day. But I didn't expect that I happened to meet my wife."
Yunu said: "I remember Yuanwai is from Xiangyang Prefecture?"
Lin Shengyuan said: "I live in Xiangyang City now. I am originally from Kaifeng. I returned to Jinlu to break the city and lived in Xiangyang."
"That's good!" Yunu was a little excited. "We two sisters are about to go to Xiangyang. I just regret that we don't have any acquaintances and the journey is long, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient. Since the member is going back to Xiangyang, how about we go together?"
Lin Shengyuan didn't know what was going on, so he naturally agreed. Although the two Yunu sisters did not follow the rules of women, they were both charming and rare beauties. It was a long journey, and it was naturally a good thing to have two people like this walking together.
.
Seeing Lin Shengyuan holding the wine, Yu Nu said: "Is there anyone else outside the party? My sister is very hungry and bought some wine and meat. Why not just drink two glasses?"
Lin Shengyuan said: "How can you two women drink with me? Where do you live? When I set off tomorrow, I will go to the store to find you. By the way, I am riding a horse, so you two are the best.
It’s better to hire a car.”
"Okay, okay. We'll wait in the store tomorrow." Yunu told the inn where he was staying, but he didn't want Lin Shengyuan to live there too. So they went back to the store together and told where they lived. Tomorrow
Walk together.
Entering the room, he put the food he bought on the table. Yunu said: "What a coincidence! When I was buying wine, I met Huang Yuanwai's companion from Xiangcheng. He was from Xiangyang and was about to return to his hometown. He happened to be with us.
Together."
Pingping was startled: "Are we going to Xiangyang? My sister only said we would find a big city to live in, but she didn't say it was that far away."
Yunu said: "I have thought about it. Although Xiangyang is farther away, it is prosperous. The most important thing is that it is where the king's observer is stationed. When did he dare to invade? In the past few years, there have been a lot of killings.
I really don’t want to see you again.”
Pingping has no idea. Since Yunu said so, the two of them will go to Xiangyang.
The food and wine were laid out, and the two sisters were drinking and chatting. After escaping from death today, the two of them had countless things to say.
Lin Shengyuan returned to the room, thinking about what she had just met with Yu Nu. She originally left Xiangcheng with Tang Zhe and Huang Yuanwai. She returned after only two or three days. I'm afraid this matter is not simple. Thinking of it,
Huang Yuan, who had taken away thousands of pieces of cotton cloth, suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
These days, murder and robbery are all too common. Many local governments are gone. Who else will take care of it? Even if crimes were committed in other places under Wang Xiaolie's rule, they will still ignore it. There is no way to investigate the case across districts.
, I can’t control it.
Along the way, although Lin Shengyuan and Huang Yuanwai could not be said to be very warm, they got along quite well and still had some feelings for each other. Especially since Lin Shengyuan regarded Huang Yuanwai as his future rich man, he could not help but feel a bit sad at this time.
After leaving Caoshi, Tang Zhe urged Huang Yuan to go out in a hurry. He said that he was walking slowly and was afraid that he would not be able to reach Linying City. After walking for about five or six miles, there was a hillock in front of him, with some sparse pine trees growing there.
, poplar tree, no people around.
Huang Yuanwai looked around and said: "This was originally a prosperous place in the Central Plains, but now it is so sparsely populated! Alas, the world is really difficult!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw a group of big men coming out of the woods ahead and blocking the road.
Huang Yuanwai was surprised. He said loudly: "Be careful, the person coming in front may not be a good person!"
A big man stood out from the crowd, looked at Huang Yuanwai on the horse and said: "Yuanwai, I heard that you sold thousands of pieces of cloth from Xiangyang, and the price is very high. Our brothers' life is difficult, and life will continue to be difficult. Yuanwai gave me the favor and gave the cloth to him.
How are we?"
Following the big man's words, the people in front showed off their swords and guns.
Huang Yuanwai met and knew that he had met a robber. Qiang said calmly: "We businessmen pay attention to being friendly and making money. I have fifty guan of money here. You brothers can take it and divide it. How about buying some wine and meat?"
