Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 69

A group of people set off along the official road.

In addition to the carriage, Fang Yao also bought ten ox carts. The price of cattle is much cheaper than that of horses, and they are more powerful, but the speed is much slower.

Due to Jiang's illness, she couldn't run around too much, so she just walked slowly with the convoy.

The villagers no longer need to carry their luggage, and they can jump in the car to rest when they are tired, which makes the journey much easier.

It's just that the official road is not very smooth, and the carriage will inevitably bump and bump when walking on it.

From here to the capital, it will take two to three months to take the official road smoothly. In order to make the journey easier, Fang Yao added a lot of cushions and quilts under the mat.

In this way, the bumps can be reduced, and when the weather gets cold after two or three months, it can also be used for heating.

Fang Yao couldn't help but look at the carriage she bought with a huge sum of money, feeling sad and happy.

Expensive is really expensive, but the space in this carriage is very spacious, if A Wu Niang doesn't have to lick her face and squeeze in... just her, Jiang Shi and the two dolls, two big, two small, four people are not crowded at all .

But Ah Wu and Li Fugui'er have been going through life and death for her these few days, so let's pamper this cheeky little old woman for the time being...

There are stools on three sides of the car, and the space under the stool can put a lot of things, and there is a small table with a drawer in the middle.

Fang Yao deliberately asked the craftsman to modify it. When the time comes, the folded wooden board installed next to the seat can be opened to form a large bed. At night or if you are tired, you can lie down and rest directly.

This is hundreds of times stronger than they used to walk the mountain roads on two legs and often slept outside.

Fang Yao took a soft pillow to cushion her back, and leaned comfortably on the carriage. When she got out of the city, she lifted the thick curtain outside the window, leaving only a layer of light mosquito gauze that she specially added inside.

The breeze gently blows in, lifting the hair around the ear, which is very refreshing.

She happily took a sip of the sour plum soup brought from the county town, and asked Mrs. Jiang: "Sister, Mr. Zhou seems to be very familiar with you."

Jiang made the last set of clothes for Fang Yao last night. At this time, she opened her eyes a little sleepily, and said with a light smile, "There is no acquaintance, it's just a relationship between the soldiers and the people."

Fang Yao didn't believe it.

Mr. Zhou's face is like that of Bao Gong, with a businesslike look, but she is willing to let her buy these two carriages cheaply, she always feels that there is something strange.

After all, when the bearded man saw Jiang Shi, his expression became a little different from before.

However, in such an era, it is really not good for a married woman of the Jiang family to get too close to those men, so Fang Yao did not continue to ask.

Unexpectedly, she didn't intend to ask, Jiang shi asked her instead.

"Didn't that Mr. Mu come to look for you before he left? If you leave like this, what if he can't find you when he comes back?"

Fang Yao was a little speechless: "Sister, what does it have to do with me if he leaves, besides, he has completed his task this time, how could he come back."

Three days ago, Fan Chen did find her and told her that he needed to go back to Beijing urgently, and asked her to wait for him to come back.

Ridiculous, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get rid of the dog man, she was stupid to wait for him obediently.

As soon as Fan Chen left, Fang Yao packed up and left Liyang County.

She picked up the little sister who was also drowsy and nestled beside Jiang Shi, "Come on, come and sleep with Auntie, don't let your mother be crushed."

Jiang shi's complexion is not good these days, all because of rushing to make clothes, shoes and socks for her.

Fang Yao was both moved and uncomfortable, fearing that Mrs. Jiang would suffer from brain problems again because of this incident, so she bought a lot of tonics before leaving.

As for food and the like, I even bought enough at one time, rice noodles and fish meat, and also prepared nuts, green dates and halva for the children.

Now outside their carriage, there are still a few knives of bacon that has been salted into salt.

Fang Yao's pockets, which had finally swelled up, pitifully flattened down again.

But she looked at her new clothes and shoes, and felt in her heart that the money was worth it!
The sun at the end of September was still a little hot, but it was very cool in the car.

Fang Yao hugged her little sister, and began to feel drowsy in the slight jolt.

Li Fugui, who was driving the car carefully, looked at the sun in the sky at noon, and opened the curtain, "Master, there is a bamboo forest in front, should we take a rest?"

"Well, rest."

Fang Yao woke up and saw that Jiang Shi had fallen asleep leaning against the car with a soft pillow, and hurriedly stopped Dabao who was about to wake Jiang Shi up, and whispered: "Shhh, Auntie will take you out to exercise your muscles and bones, so that you can relax." Your mother should sleep more."

Dabao blinked his black eyes and nodded obediently.

"Hey baby."

Fang Yao took out a thin quilt from the cabinet under her buttocks and covered Jiang Shi, and carried Dabao and Xiaomei out of the car respectively.

As soon as the two children landed, they went to the back to find Erya and the older children to play. Fang Yao took out the ponytail from the car and told them to keep their voices down.

There were more cars, and Ah Wu Niang didn't always dominate the car as before. Before Li Fugui called her, she dawdled out of the car and wandered around in a refreshed manner.

Li Fugui, who was feeding the horse, grabbed her, "Don't wander around, come and get some water for the horse."

"Got it, got it. Since yesterday, you have bathed and fed these beasts. You are closer than your son."

A Wu Niang couldn't help saying sourly when she saw how her husband loved and cared for these horses.

Li Fugui was very blunt: "The master spent 200 taels of silver, 200 taels, what can I do if I don't take good care of it?"

"..."

Fang Yao stretched out the tung tarpaulin on the outside of the carriage and fixed it.

She deliberately asked the craftsman to add a tung oil cloth that can be easily stretched and contracted on the outside of each car. Pull it out and fix it, which is a shed that can shade the sun and rain.

At this time, all the cars surrounded the city in a half circle, and the sheds in the half circle formed one after another, which looked quite spectacular from a distance.

A Wu moved several folding tables from the bullock cart and joined them together to form a large table.

Erya father took out the simple firewood stove that had been assembled, and asked the half-grown children to go nearby to pick up some firewood and leaves that could be burned.

The Gouwaniang, the big-headed daughter-in-law and the others began to cook.

They, Master Fang, said, don't rush to hurry now, save the dry food for emergencies, and eat fresh and hot food when you can usually eat fresh and hot food.

After a while, the children carried a lot of dry bamboo out of the bamboo forest. Gou Wa picked up a small axe and chopped them into pieces. Some were used to make fire, and some were put into sacks for the road.

Soon, the smoke from the cooking outside the bamboo forest billowed up.

As soon as the meal was ready, Fang Yao served Jiang Shi a bowl in advance to cool it down on the small table. Vegetable and rice porridge served with steamed buns, as well as specially marinated minced meat and pickled cabbage lumps, filled the stomach with the meal.

She took Dabao and Xiaomei to sit on the small table outside the carriage and ate slowly.

"Be careful it's hot."

Fang Yao wiped the mouth of the little girl whose face was covered with food.

Tiny Doudian swayed her bun and smiled at her until her eyes narrowed, then picked up a grain of rice on the table and threw it to her feet.

Two chickens and a goose rushed over with flapping wings, and the rice grains disappeared instantly.

This was specially bought by Li Fugui and brought along on the road. He occasionally laid an egg to feed the children. In order to prevent it from getting lost, he tied a hemp rope around his ankle.

Dabao held his chopsticks in his mouth and said vaguely: "Auntie, there are also many people over there."

Fang Yao gently pulled out the chopsticks, looked up, there were indeed a lot of people coming, to be exact, another convoy came.
