Chapter 25 They Are Here
Chapter 25 They are coming
When Su Ying and others came out of the house, Zhang Shan and others had already carried the wild boar onto an oxcart and covered it with straw.
"Brother Xiao, you get in the car, we are going to the county seat."
Xiao Jin nodded, and Su Ying carried him to the car and sat down.
The bullock cart is not big, and after putting down a wild boar, there is only room for two people to sit.
You don't need too many people to sell pigs, just Zhang Shan is enough.
"Ms. Su, Mr. Xiao, we don't have any good things from our farm. Just take these pancakes with you and eat them on the road. I hope you can return home as soon as possible and don't let your family worry."
Su Ying took the cake and thanked her: "Thank you Aunt Wang. We will remember your family's kindness."
Aunt Wang smiled and shook her head. They met by chance. Who knows what the future will bring. They just thought it was a good relationship.
"Mom, let's go then." Zhang Shan jumped onto the bullock cart.
"Go ahead and be careful on the road."
"Okay."
After sending Su Ying and the others away, Aunt Wang arrived at Zhang Shan's house to clean up. Unexpectedly, she found a few taels of silver on the table as soon as she entered. She knew that it must have been left by Su Ying and the others, so she took the silver and chased him out.
By that time, the bullock cart had long disappeared.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Aunt Wang looked at the money in her hand and sighed, "Xiao Langjun and the others just had some simple meals at our house, and they gave them so much money after just one night's rest. How can I feel safe receiving it?"
A few taels of silver, for an ordinary farmer, is their harvest for one or two years, which can be said to be a lot of money.
"Mom, since they gave it to us, let's keep it. If you accept the money, Miss Su and the others can feel at ease."
Aunt Wang shook her head, that Xiao Langjun had an extraordinary bearing, and even with his legs disabled, his momentum was not weak at all. These two people were absolutely extraordinary.
Su Ying learned from Zhang Shan that they belonged to a remote mountain village outside Yunshui City. Because it was relatively remote, Zhang Shan didn't know what Yunshui City looked like from birth to now. He had to walk from the village to the nearest county seat.
It takes half a day, let alone going to Yunshui City.
"Xiao Langjun, don't worry. After you get to the county seat, you can rent a carriage and take the carriage to Yunshui City. You can arrive there in less than a day."
"good."
Although the ox cart was bumpy, the journey was smooth and they arrived at the county seat before noon.
After entering the county town, Su Ying jumped off the bullock cart and helped Xiao Jin down.
"Thank you, Brother Zhang, for sending me all the way." Xiao Jin said gratefully.
Zhang Shan smiled sheepishly, "It's a small matter, but I can't take you home. There is a rental carriage place over there. How about I sell the wild boar and find one for you?"
Xiao Jin refused, "Brother Zhang is very grateful for sending us here."
"Okay, be careful on the road." Zhang Shan was in a hurry to sell pigs, so he said goodbye to them and left.
Su Ying was worried about the children, so she carried Xiao Jin on her back and headed to the place where the carriage was rented.
"We don't have a road guide. If you have anything to buy, buy it here. You can't enter Yunshui City without a road guide." Xiao Jin said as soon as he reached the street entrance.
"What you said has reminded me. I'm going to rent a carriage first. You wait for me in the carriage while I go buy something."
Xiao Jin nodded, "Yes."
After Xiao Jin found an experienced handlebar driver, he got on the old-looking green shed carriage.
Su Ying went to the street to buy things. She didn't dare to waste too much time and wanted to keep some money in her hand just in case. So she bought some ingredients and rice noodles and got on the carriage at the agreed place.
Xiao Jin saw that she bought big and small bags, so he moved her place.
Su Ying put the two packs of snacks on the top of the bag, "These snacks are for Ling'er and the others. I don't know how she has been in the past two days. I know you fell into the water. I will probably be very sad. Ji, too."
Son, his injury hasn’t healed yet..."
Su Ying's words made Xiao Jin frown. What he was most worried about were his two children.
Along the way, both of them were worried and hoped to join the main force as soon as possible.
Not long after the carriage left the county town, the sky became gloomy and it looked like it was going to rain again. Su Ying still remembered what He Shouyi said before, so she bought two more oil-paper umbrellas and hats in the county town.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for it to start raining.
Listening to the sound of rain outside the car, Su Ying frowned even more tightly, "You said it has been raining like this. If we go southwest, will we encounter floods?" The team cannot take the official road, they will go through the wilderness.
In rural areas, if there is heavy rain and the mountains become loose, it will easily cause mudslides, and the risk factor will be greatly increased.
"possible."
Thinking of this, Su Ying really wished she could have wings and fly over to join the team.
"It's okay to think too much. Just rest your mind first and watch the changes." Seeing her worries, Xiao Jin spoke calmly.
Su Ying nodded, found a comfortable position and closed her eyes.
When Su Ying opened her eyes, she opened the car curtain and saw the city gate not far away.
"Is that Yunshui City?"
Xiao Jin nodded.
The train was traveling faster than they expected, but it was already the next morning.
"Two guests, please decide whether you want to go into the city or get off the bus outside." The coachman's voice sounded outside.
Su Ying looked at the sky and didn't know when the team over there would arrive.
After thinking for a while, she said: "Uncle, do you want to sell this car?"
"Ma'am, do you want to buy a car?"
Su Ying looked at Xiao Jin and said, "What do you think? If it rains all the time, it would be better for you and the children to have a car."
Xiao Jin paused and looked at her deeply, "You really care about the two children."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "It's necessary, buy it."
In fact, Su Ying had this idea when she left the county town. She jumped out of the car and negotiated the price with the driver. After all, she didn't have much money to spare.
Finally, the transaction was completed at thirty taels.
The driver took the money and went to the city.
Su Ying led the carriage to the foot of a big tree, tied the horse to the tree, then returned to the carriage, rummaged through the baggage, found a pack of cakes and opened it.
"Let's have something to eat."
Xiao Jin shook his head. He had been in the car for the past two days and he had no appetite. "According to their walking speed, they will arrive at Yunshui City today at the latest." If they haven't arrived yet, something happened.
Su Ying took a piece of cake and placed it outside the car so that she could see the situation outside more clearly.
She bit into the pancake bite by bite, and suddenly she missed the egg pancakes made by He Shouyi.
"Move faster."
A familiar shout made Su Ying jump out of the carriage, "They are coming."
Xiao Jin opened the car curtain and saw a group of people headed by Li Da walking towards this side.
