Chapter 135: The Year of Disaster

The carriage and horses were slow, and it took a day to reach the nearby county seat. Although it was only separated by a mountain, it was already very different from the prosperity of the capital city.

Chengchun and Hongdou found a local inn and stayed in. Although Chengchun and Hongdou were wearing coarse clothes, their skin was whiter than snow, and their eyebrows were noble. Especially their behavior, especially the rules, the shopkeeper's

You can tell by looking at them that they are mostly wealthy people who are away from home, so they don't have to worry too much and are given an upper room.

"Girl, you rest first, I'll ask the shopkeeper to cook some side dishes and bring them over!" Hongdou said and was about to walk out.

Chengchun nodded, then walked to the side and sat down on the sofa. She didn't take a nap along the way, and she was indeed a little tired. She sat there and poured herself a cup of tea. This tea must have been there for a long time.

, the entrance is slightly bitter and slightly astringent.

Cheng Chun put down the cup in his hand with some disappointment, and the waiter knocked on the door: "Girl, this is the stove and hot tea that another girl asked me to bring. Our inn does not have the tea that girls usually drink. We use

The best white tea, please don’t dislike it, girl!”

"How could that happen?" Chengchun quickly stood up with a smile, "By the way, where is she?"

"The girl ordered a few dishes, then asked the shopkeeper where the car dealership was, and then went to the car dealership to rent a car!" The waiter put down the things and said with a smile, "The girl's accent doesn't sound like ours.

A local?"

Cheng Chun's eyes narrowed slightly, and then said: "I arrived in the capital a few years ago. I came to see my grandmother. I didn't expect that my aunt was vicious and couldn't tolerate us. There was no way. After the New Year, we would wait until the Spring Equinox.

Hurry up and go back, you don’t have to suffer under someone else’s roof!”

The waiter nodded: "That's right! I think the girl has a deep affection for her grandmother, otherwise why would she travel far alone!"

Cheng Chun smiled shyly and said nothing more.

After the waiter left, Chengchun poured himself another cup of tea. The tea was fragrant in the mouth and had a sweet aftertaste. It was a good tea.

Chengchun held the tea cup, and suddenly there was a moment of silence. She remembered that in the past, she would feel very satisfied even if she drank broken tea. But now, she has begun to be picky about the quality of tea. The inferior tea is actually a bit unpleasant.

Ready to enter.

Hongdou came back with the waiter who delivered the food. The waiter walked in with the food. The two of them had three dishes and one soup. It wasn’t too much, but it wasn’t too little either: “Take it easy, you two!”

After waiting until the waiter left, Hongdou said: "Girl, I went to the car dealership and asked around, and found out that we were not willing to rent a car when we went to such a far place. Later, a young boy told me and asked me to go to the escort agency to ask.

There is a batch of goods from the escort agency that is going to Jiangnan, but it is not going to Hangzhou, but to Huizhou. Should we go with that escort car?"

"Huizhou is not very far from Hangzhou. We can change the route from Huizhou to Hangzhou when the time comes!" Chengchun said while picking up vegetables for Hongdou.

Hongdou nodded, then took a bite of the dish and frowned slightly: "This tastes..."

"When you go out, you have to make do with everything!" Chengchun said, taking a bite of stir-fried vegetables with no oil or water. "When we get home, we will definitely not be as extravagant as we were in other courtyards. It's just a pain for you, so we have to follow.

Let’s live the hard life together!”

"What nonsense is the girl talking about!" Hongdou said quickly, "We are just not used to it for a while. It doesn't matter. As long as I am with the girl, even eating grass roots, I don't feel any pain!"

Chengchun looked at Hongdou and smiled: "When does the escort agency's car leave?"

"The day after tomorrow, I will pay the deposit early tomorrow morning, lest they don't take us with them!" Hongdou said, and took a big mouthful of rice.

"I'll go with you. Although Forsythia has prepared a lot of dry food for us, we still need to prepare some more ourselves to be prepared!" Cheng Chun said, "Besides, when we go out, no matter what, you try not to be alone.

It’s not safe to go out and walk around!”

Hongdou nodded: "I understand. After dinner, the girl will take a shower and rest early. We will go buy some dry food early tomorrow morning!"

Forsythia is a very careful girl. She prepared water bags and a lot of dry food. Most of the dry food she prepared was dried meat. She was full and didn’t take up much space. It wasn’t easy to spoil. But from here to Huizhou, it didn’t take more than a month.

It’s impossible to get there. You can’t keep eating jerky along the way!

Although Chengchun is a womanizer, she is very defensive, so she and Hongdou keep all the valuables close to their bodies. They only put a small bag of broken silver in their baggage. There is nothing important. They

She won't show other things for others to see. She still understands the principle of not exposing wealth.

Hongdou was used to getting up early, so she went downstairs when the sky was slightly bright. After asking around for breakfast, she found that most of them were pasta. Most of the time, Chengchun’s breakfast was relatively light. A bowl of pasta this morning would be a big surprise.

I've been in a panic all day.

There was no choice but to go out and buy red beans.

The county town was quite lively in the early morning, and there were more vendors selling meat. Hong Dou found a shop that sold meat porridge early in the morning. She stood there for a while with a few coins, and finally finished a bowl of meat porridge. Then she heard

Someone passed by behind me: "Yesterday I went to have my fortune told, and the magician I met said that this year will be a disaster year, either a drought or a flood!"

Hongdou looked back at the people passing by, a little strange, but didn't take it seriously, just listened to it.

When he returned with the meat porridge, the waiter had already delivered the thick bowl of noodles to Chengchun's house, and was still explaining to her: "Most of us here are people on the road, and the most taboo is not having enough to eat, so most of the time in the morning

These are all thicker things. If the girl can’t get used to them..."

"It's okay!" Chengchun smiled, "We're not that delicate!"

Hongdou also happened to come in: "Just leave it alone. That's what I ate. It doesn't matter. The main reason is that she has a bad gastrointestinal condition and needs to eat something good in the morning!"

The waiter then withdrew.

Hongdou placed the porridge in front of Chengchun: "Just now I went to the market to buy porridge, and I heard a person say that this year is a disaster year, either a drought or a flood. Girl, do you think this is the year?

Is that why Master Huide doesn’t let us take the water route?”

Cheng Chun was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Who knows, maybe that person is also talking nonsense. If he had known that it would be a big disaster year, the imperial court would definitely take measures to prevent and control it! What kind of disaster is that?

Year!"

Hongdou nodded: "Yes!"
