Returning to Xiahe Village from Anqing Prefecture is a hundred miles away. It cannot be reached in one day. We will consider the long term after we return to the inn.
It was windy and rainy, and when Zhu Pingan returned to the inn, he was extremely wet.
"Oh, sir, you don't bring an umbrella with you when you go out. Come in quickly." The waiter who was taking shelter under the eaves at the door couldn't help but lose color when he saw Zhu Pingan walking in the wind and rain. He quickly opened the door and asked Zhu Pingan to come in quickly.
.
There were not many people eating in the lobby, and most of them stayed in their rooms due to the wind and rain. The meals they ordered before leaving had already been packed away, which is reasonable.
"Why is Mr. Zhu so wet? Hurry up and change into clean clothes. I will ask the shop assistant to deliver a bowl of ginger syrup to Mr. Zhu's room. If you have any other instructions, Mr. Zhu will let you know." The innkeeper saw Zhu Ping'an walking in wet.
, hurriedly walked forward and handed over a dry towel, and arranged for the store clerk to prepare ginger soup and other items. This was the first boss to stay in his store, which made him very proud among his colleagues in several nearby inns.
, but it needs to be taken care of.
Zhu Ping'an was wet, cold and unceremonious. He took the dry towel handed by the shopkeeper and said, "Then I'll help the shopkeeper."
While wiping his head and face, he walked to his room. As soon as he returned to the room, the waiter had already brought ginger syrup and some simple food, and then the bath water was also ready. After thanking the waiter, Zhu Pingan drank
After drinking ginger syrup, I took a hot bath, changed into a set of dry clothes, and then ate the food brought by the store clerk into my stomach. I stretched my waist and felt much better.
It was windy and rainy outside, and he couldn't rush on his way immediately. After Zhu Pingan packed his things into his luggage, he sat at the table and read a book.
The book in his schoolbag was a little damp. Although he tried his best to protect it, the papers were still stuck together. It took Zhu Pingan a long time to put the book away again. Fortunately, the old fishing man gave him the book.
The paper quality of this copybook is quite good, and the font has not been affected at all.
Reading on a rainy day is a kind of enjoyment. When the rain hits the screened window and the wind brings coolness, making a pot of fragrant tea, sitting under the window and reading is really one of the great joys in life.
Zhu Pingan quietly enjoyed the copybook by the window, but he didn't know that the hormonal male noise in Zuijun Tower hundreds of meters away almost broke through the roof of the building, the continuous fermentation caused by Mulan's poems, and the girl's school scholar Mo'er pulled off her veil to reveal
Pretty face...
In the evening, if there were no candles in the room, it would be difficult to read the words on the book. At this time, the drunken uncle and several villagers staggered upstairs and knocked on Zhu Ping'an's door.
When Zhu Pingan opened the door, he smelled the smell of wine mixed with the earthy smell. The uncle and several villagers outside the door seemed to have fallen in the mud, and the mud was on their faces.
"Tsk tsk, it's a pity that you left so early, Shi'er... In the girls' school book of Zuijun Tower, if it is increased by one point, it will be too long, if it is reduced by one point, it will be too short; if it is powdered, it will be too white; if it is applied with red, it will be too red; if the eyebrows are like
Green feathers, skin like white snow; waist like a bunch of silk, teeth like shells; a charming smile, bewildered Yangcheng, captivated Cai..." The left half of uncle Zhu Shouren's face was covered with muddy water, and he was clicking his tongue with a mouthful of white teeth at this moment,
I feel sorry that Zhu Ping'an left early and didn't see the true appearance of the girl's school book.
Well
Why are you still memorizing "Dengtuzi Lustful Fu"?
Zhu Ping'an was a little speechless, but the uncle was pretty good compared to his friends. At this moment, the uncle's fat friend was piled on the ground like flying, snoring...
"That's right, Gu...mei, it's such a pity for you. But, hehehe, it does give us an advantage..." A country man spoke with a loud tongue and gestured with his teeth and claws. Those who didn't know the truth thought he was with a girl's school girl.
Something interesting happened.
"The girl's school is going to invite you to the room to play the piano and have a drink. If you are not here, why let us be you...we are from your hometown. It is also thanks to Brother Zhu that we went to have a drink on your behalf. Hahaha, beauty Qin.
Good wine..." Another countryman leaned against the door frame, grinning silly. Although he just listened to the piano and drank some wine, having such a close contact with the girls' school book was enough to show off in front of others.
Brother Zhu must be referring to the uncle, and only the uncle would act like this.
"Everything today will be shared by everyone. Brother An, please don't leave. Follow me here to prepare for the exam..."
"Xie'er, uncle will review books and talk about the Spring and Autumn Period with you tomorrow..."
Zhu Ping'an could only laugh when he saw that he was unable to stand still, half covered in mud and half smelling of alcohol, and threatened to write a book about Spring and Autumn Period for himself, prepare for the exam, and prepare for the exam for his uncle and fellow villagers.
I was disturbed by them until midnight, and then I sent them away with the help of the store clerk.
"Uncle, I will review books with you tomorrow..."
"Tomorrow we will prepare for the college entrance examination..."
When Da Bo and others who are so drunk that they can't tell the difference between east, west, north and south are being carried away by the store clerk, don't keep chattering to yourself.
On the second day, the weather was beautiful, the wind stopped raining, and the red sun rose in the east.
Zhu Ping'an rubbed his forehead and smiled bitterly, and walked out of a store.
The TV series kills people. Thinking about it, the road from Anqing Prefecture to Xiahe Village is a hundred miles away. The road terrain is complicated, and ancient times are not as safe as modern times. Even during the Jiajing era, there were often unsighted thieves who preyed on single pedestrians.
The idea. I saw in TV dramas that escort agencies also provide escort services when escorting escorts, such as the movie about a certain Jinyiwei. So I searched for it in Anqing Mansion. After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the escort agency. I asked passers-by, and they all shook their heads.
I don't know about the escort agency, but only one person pointed to a location and said there was a "Biao Bank" there. I don't know if it was you who mentioned it.
Zhu Ping'an did know that Biaoxing was the prototype of the Escort Agency. Escort agencies only appeared in the Qing Dynasty, but Biaoxing existed in the Ming Dynasty and was recorded in Jin Ping Mei. I thought that the TV series might just get the name wrong.
Zhu Ping'an went to this "Biao Bank" and inquired to see if they had any business going to Kaoshan Town in the near future.
Unexpectedly, a joke happened.
First of all, the goods transported by the Ming Dynasty were not ordinary items, but valuable items (such as rare treasures). Furthermore, people never had the business of giving away people. Even if they bring people, they are also the owners of valuable items. I don’t know.
How dare I take you on the road casually.
Rich people will naturally have escorts to escort them to the hospital, while those without money will travel in small groups without any need for escorts.
Therefore, when Zhu Ping'an went to inquire, he looked like he was looking at an idiot.
But it wasn't all nothing. The person from Biao Bank told Zhu Ping'an that he could go to the carriage and horse dealership to ask.
Zhu Pingan awkwardly came out of Biao Bank and went to the carriage and horse shop. It happened that the carriage and horse shop would have a group of carriages going to Kaoshan Town in the near future. With Zhu Pingan, the number of people was almost complete. Zhu Pingan paid five silver coins.
After paying the deposit, I received a wooden card with a horse engraved on it.
With everything ready, you can come to the carriage and horse carriage tomorrow and take a carriage to Kaoshan Town, and then you can get home.
I feel homesick.
