Chapter 9 Caravan
This year actually has a bad year, and the harvest in the fields is not very good, so fighting over a piece of land doesn't make much sense. Forget it, since they have dispersed, I followed the road towards Shangjing.
When I arrived in the town, I went to the bank to exchange some money and then put on a disguise. Then I continued on the road. The Marquis' Mansion was surrounded by people from Yinyue Tower, especially Yihua, who was also there. How to avoid it?
They should also think carefully about their eyes. Along the way, I will encounter many people walking in the opposite direction to me. I saw a caravan, so I went up to ask.
"Little brother, I saw so many people coming from the direction of Shangjing. Is that the reason?"
The man looked at me with disgust, waved his hand and said, "Go away, go away, what's the matter with you." Then he pushed me to the ground.
A little girl who was traveling with them saw me and hurriedly came forward to help me. "Mother-in-law, are you okay? Ignore him. Where are you going?"
"I'm going to Beijing to join my relatives. Where are you from?" I asked.
"We are merchants and have just come out of Shangjing. Originally, we wanted to rush the princess to choose a husband and make a lot of money, but because Shangjing is so chaotic now, the son-in-law selection meeting has been postponed and there is no use staying there.
He simply left, but it was still very noisy when he first went there." The little girl helped me sit next to me and continued, "Now most of the caravans are walking back, and those young men who are running for the election are also going.
Let's go back. You should meet a lot of people on the way. You must pay attention to your safety and don't talk to everyone. You will definitely suffer if you encounter someone like you just did."
"Thank you, girl." I said.
"Mom, you're welcome, come and drink some water." The little girl said and handed over a bowl of water.
This caravan looked very ordinary, but the behavior was indeed a bit strange. I looked at the little girl who smiled at me, and took the water and pretended to take a sip. The girl still smiled and said, "Drink more, ma'am.
It's a long way ahead but there's no place to stay. After you drink this, I'll put on a bottle for you to drink on the way.
"Girl, you don't dare. You also need to drink water on the way. You gave me the kettle. That person didn't mean to scold you." I pretended to be scared and looked over there. I put the water next to it.
The girl glanced at the man with contempt and said, "Mom, it's okay, he will thank me for giving you a drink of water later. You can drink water without fear."
"But my nephew has arranged accommodation ahead of time, so I can't stay too long, so I have to move on," I said.
"Your nephew is really careless. How can you leave an old man like you to travel alone?" said the girl.
"This time, my brother knew that I was living alone and was miserable, so he wanted to pick me up to enjoy a happy life. There were also me and my nephew among the passers-by. He was afraid that there would be no place to stay in front of him, so he asked him to explore the way first. Besides, I am an old woman.
, there is nothing left but this life. I am not afraid of anything." I said with a smile.
"My mother-in-law is right. You are old after all, so you should be more careful, otherwise you may not be able to take good care of your nephew. I wonder why my mother-in-law only has one person left in the family?" said the girl.
"It's a long story. I'm afraid that little girl like you won't be able to listen to my nagging," I said.
