Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 148 Encountering Disaster Victims
When Bai Muyuan in the other car saw her, her eyes flickered, she stared deeply at the back of Zhao Jiyuan riding away on horseback, and the corners of her lips curled up in interest.

Interesting, is this Young Master Zhao the Zhao Jiyuan whom Master Yao appreciates so much?This person seems to have a lot of heart for Miss Yao's second!But that one didn't appreciate it.

When Yao Cunhui and his party came to the teahouse, the owner of the teahouse had already prepared some tea and simple pasta and snacks. Zhao Jiyuan came to the carriage to welcome Yao Cunhui to get off. When Shen Sheng saw him, he arranged for the team to park the car.

"Second Miss, you have worked hard all the way! Stay in Suzhou City for one night tonight, and I will arrive in Huaibei in three days. I have already hired a boat there, and I will be in Beijing in a few days. Second Miss can also take a rest! Zhao Jiyuan smiled and entered the teahouse with Yao Cunhui.

Then, he personally poured a cup of tea for her, pointed at the four plates of fine dim sum on the table and said with a smile: "Miss Er, please pad your belly, they are all clean things!"

Yao Cunhui reluctantly took the tea ceremony he handed over and said "thank you", and couldn't eat the dim sum he bought, so she said calmly: "I feel a little nauseous, just drink some hot tea!"

"Is the road too bumpy?" Zhao Jiyuan asked with concern: "It happened to rain two days ago, and the road for the next three days will not be easy to walk. Otherwise, the convoy will leave first, and the second lady will rest in Suzhou City for two days. Take your time and go on your way again? When you get to the city, find a doctor to have a look!"

"Mr. Zhao, you don't have to be so polite, hehe, I thought it was Rong's mother who came with me! I can make decisions about the food team, and don't worry about Mr. Zhao!" Yao Cunhui's eyes twitched, and his tone was a little impatient.

Zhao Jiyuan was startled, his lips puckered, and he smiled helplessly.

"Authentic Huangshan Yunwu, hehe, Miss Yao is delicious!" Bai Muyuan walked over with a graceful smile in her white clothes.

Zhao Jiyuan looked up, and saw a handsome face as carved from jade and a pair of beautiful amber eyes. He looked at Yao Cunhui, and his heart sank for no reason.

"This is—" Zhao Jiyuan slowly stood up and asked with a forced smile.He has always been calm and calm in his dealings with others, neither humble nor overbearing, even in the face of Master Yao, he is also calm and composed.But at this moment, standing in front of this white-clothed man with a crown-like face, he suddenly felt ashamed.

This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Bai, please sit down." Yao Cunhui nodded to Bai Muyuan with a smile and raised his hand in a "please" gesture, but he didn't mean to introduce Zhao Jiyuan at all.

"Thank you!" Bai Muyuan smiled gracefully, then turned to Zhao Jiyuan and said with a smile: "Bai Muyuan, who is from Tianjin, happened to meet Ms. Yao in Huainan, and happened to be on the same road. You can call me Brother Bai. Listen to Ms. Yao's name, are you Is your surname Zhao?"

Zhao Jiyuan nodded, the muscles on his face were slightly stiff, "I'm Zhao Jiyuan, Brother Bai, please sit down!"

Bai Muyuan chuckled, folded her hands and sat beside Yao Cunhui.

Yao Cunhui saw that he was talking, and his eyes were fixed on the tea bowl in his hand, so he smiled at Zhao Jiyuan and said, "Pour a cup of tea for Mr. Bai!"

Zhao Jiyuan had no choice but to pour tea for Bai Muyuan and pass it over: "Please!"

"Thank you Miss Yao, thank you Brother Zhao!" Holding the tea bowl, Bai Muyuan sniffed it lightly intoxicated, then gently flicked the tea leaves in the bowl with the lid, lowered her head and took a sip, and praised with a smile: " Thanks to Ms. Yao, I haven't had such authentic Huangshan Yunwu for a long time!"

Yao Cunhui smiled, but asked Zhao Jiyuan, "Is this the cloud of Mount Huang?"

After saying a word, both Zhao Jiyuan and Bai Muyuan were stunned.

Zhao Jiyuan's expression turned ugly, he nodded and said, "Yes, isn't this the second young lady's favorite Huangshan Yunwu?"

Yao Cunhui smiled meaninglessly, and said lightly: "I don't care much, first I drank this when my father gave it to me, and then my elder sister gave me some more."

Bai Muyuan couldn't help giving a "puchi" smile, the light in her amber eyes turned slightly, and she glanced at Zhao Jiyuan with a half-smile.Zhao Jiyuan's face flushed immediately.

"Young Master Zhao really has a heart!" Bai Muyuan smiled at Yao Cunhui.

Zhao Jiyuan turned his head slightly and did not speak, the veins in his hands tightened.

"By the way, Miss Yao," Bai Muyuan smiled friendlyly at Yao Cunhui again: "I'm grateful for the care I've taken care of along the way! When I get on the boat in Huaibei, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a suitable opportunity. I want to set up a plan tonight. Thanks to Ms. Yao, I wonder if it is convenient for Ms. Yao."

"Second Miss," Zhao Jiyuan felt uncomfortable when he heard it, and said to Yao Cunhui, "Second Miss has a bumpy journey, so let's rest early!"

"Hehe, it's just a light meal, it won't waste Miss Yao's time!" Bai Muyuan smiled gently and looked at Yao Cunhui sincerely.

"Then respect is worse than obedience!" Yao Cunhui smiled, and said again: "Mr. Bai is actually being polite. He didn't take care of you all along the way!"

"At least following Miss Yao's motorcade, our master and servant will feel at ease! This is hard to buy!" Bai Muyuan smiled heartily.

Yao Cunhui couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help but glance at Bai Muyuan more: This person's conversation is pretty good.

"Brother Zhao, let's go together then, oh, and that buddy named Shen Sheng!" Bai Muyuan laughed.

"Okay, I'll tell him then!" Yao Cunhui nodded.

No matter how Zhao Jiyuan thought Bai Muyuan was not pleasing to the eye, he always felt that there was something hidden behind these amber eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

He didn't want to agree at first, but when he saw Yao Cunhui agreed, he felt unwilling and reluctant after all, so he reluctantly agreed.Since Yao Cunhui left Beijing, he has been restless every day, always feeling uncomfortable as if he lost something, and finally found an excuse to come to her, but he didn't want to, but saw another person beside her.

It wasn't until this time that he realized what kind of feeling he had for her!
Yao Cunhui just drank his tea and didn't talk about what he liked at all.

After a while, everyone rested enough and started on the road again, Zhao Jiyuan rode a horse and followed Yao Cunhui's carriage.

Bai Nian raised the corner of the curtain to look over there, and said with a smile, "Fifth Master, this Mr. Zhao seems to be quite hostile to Fifth Master! Fifth Master, why do you want to make him angry!"

Bai Muyuan gave a long smile with interest, glanced at Bai Nian, and said solemnly: "Don't you think the journey is too monotonous, would it be much more interesting?"

Bai Nian was speechless.

After dinner, both the host and guest were very satisfied. Bai Muyuan was polite, enthusiastic but kept a certain distance, not annoying.

Zhao Jiyuan, who had been observing him carefully, felt relieved: Maybe, he was too nervous and thought too much!

At night, under the lights.

Bai Muyuan drank tea, tapped her knuckles lightly on the table, slowly recalling the big and small things along the way, smiling and raising her eyebrows from time to time, those amber eyes became more and more crystal clear under the shallow light clear.

"Bai Feng," Bai Muyuan called out suddenly, and said slowly, "You can do something for me right now..."

After hearing this, Bai Feng raised his thick eyebrows high, bowed in response to "yes", turned around and ran out, and disappeared into the vast night without a sound.

The next day, a group of people went on the road as usual.Except for the contact last night, the greeting smiles of Yao Cunhui and Bai Muyuan became a little more familiar, no different from usual.

Unexpectedly, after walking for half a day, just after passing a mountain col, a large number of victims suddenly rushed from a distance, shouting and rushing towards the food team.A team of 300 people, with ragged clothes and disheveled hair, looked like a wolf descending from a tiger and smelling blood!

"Okay, Second Miss! These disaster victims are probably going to grab food!" Shen Sheng fell in shock, his heart icy cold.

Those with bare feet are not afraid to wear shoes. If the food is robbed by the disaster victims, it can only be considered unlucky!

Zhao Jiyuan was also stunned, and hurriedly said: "I heard that there was a flood in Shangqiu, Henan, where did it come from?"

"You know?" Yao Cunhui glared at Zhao Jiyuan bitterly when he heard the words, and said sharply, "You know why you didn't say it earlier!"

"I—" Zhao Jiyuan groaned and hung his head, speechless.He did hear people talking about it on the way, but he had heard it before, but when it was a gossip, how could he have come across it by such a coincidence!
"Second Miss, what should I do, what should I do!" Shen Sheng was in a hurry, and all the clerks and helpers also became nervous.

"Miss Yao, the number of victims is so fast, let's speed up and escape!" Bai Muyuan raised the curtain of the car and said anxiously.

"Yes, yes! Run away, run away!"

"Yes, speed up, these hungry ghosts definitely don't have the strength to catch up with us!" The guys seemed to have grasped at straws.

"Second Miss, you go first, hurry up!" Zhao Jiyuan was also in a hurry.He wasn't sure if the grain carts could escape or not, after all, each cart was loaded with so much grain, but Yao Cunhui drove lightly and quickly, so he had to escape!She is a rich young lady, she had some direct entanglements with these low-level disaster victims, and her reputation is going to be ruined!

"Mr. Bai," Yao Cunhui ignored him, turned to Bai Muyuan and said seriously: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you go away! Mr. Bai is on his own way, and he will be able to reach Huaibei tomorrow. There is really no need to follow us through this muddy water." .”

Bai Muyuan pondered slightly, and resolutely said: "Miss Yao don't want to say that, Bai is a timid person! Since we are all together, Bai will never leave Miss Yao alone! Let's go together! Hurry up , they will come after you soon!"

All the guys were eager to try it, they talked about it and raised their whips.

Yao Cunhui glanced at the victims who were getting closer, sighed silently, but jumped out of the carriage, and raised his voice to order: "No one is allowed to leave, drive the carriages together, and leave one driver for each carriage to watch the horses. Surprised, the rest of the people, stand by my side! Mr. Bai, please stay away, no matter what happens later, please don't move around."

"Second miss!"

"The grain truck is heavy, do you really think you can escape?" Yao Cunhui sneered.The victims were frantic with hunger, and the more they fled, the more they would be angered. Let alone grabbing food, there might be conflicts and casualties.

Since he couldn't escape, he might as well stay and stop with silence.

"Brothers, fuck you!" a guy shouted with excitement, waving his arms.
