NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 33 The county was blocked by rain
Although Ling Xiaoxiao deeply sympathizes with Xiao Douding's calmness, this must be the result of a very strict upbringing, but this is a family matter, and Ling Xiaoxiao has no intention of meddling too much. Maybe such a tutor is better and more suitable for this era. Maybe.
The group of people were lively and set up tents. The Ling family's tents were still placed on both sides of the carriage. Ling Xiaoxiao still slept on the carriage because this was in the mountains, even though it was already early March. However, it was very cold at night, so several extra fires were built, firstly to scare the wild animals, and secondly to keep them warm.
Now that Boss Sun is dead, his group of men have also chosen to leave. The most important thing now is the safety of the team, but these people are just servants of the Lan family. They can serve people, but keeping vigil at night, etc. They can also keep things under control, but they may not be able to do it in terms of alertness. For the sake of safety, Ling Xiaoxiao asked Ling Sanlang to stay on duty for the first half of the night and he stayed on duty for the second half of the night.
The night passed peacefully. The next day, the team started to be busy again. In the mist, the team set off again. After two days of walking, they finally arrived at Yugan in Shuzhou. The first city adjacent to Shuzhou. From here on, they left Ganzhou and entered the boundary of Shuzhou.
"Mr. Lan, the front is the boundary of Shuzhou. According to the map, we are in Anxian County. It seems that the weather is going to rain at this time. Should we stay here for the night? Otherwise, we are afraid of being blocked on the road. That's terrible. That’s troublesome.”
Lan Yanhang lifted the curtain and looked at the sky above his head. It was gloomy and windy. It looked like it was really going to rain. This is a mountainous area in Sichuan. If it rains lightly, it will be fine. If it encounters In heavy rain, if it rains for a long time, accidents can easily happen. I agree with Ling Xiaoxiao's suggestion.
"What Miss Ling is worried about is, then listen to Miss Ling, let's go to the county ahead and check it out and live there!"
After saying that, he said to a young man who was following his carriage, "Go and tell the manager and ask him to send someone to the county ahead to book an inn first, preferably two separate courtyards."
Hearing what Lan Yanhang said, Ling Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. Lan Yanhang was willing to do this, so he just waited. After walking for another half an hour, he finally saw the city wall not far away. This Shu The city walls here don't look as tall as those in the Northern Territory, but the city walls here are mostly made of mountain rocks, which are stronger and more durable than the city walls in the borderlands.
The steward of the Lan family was quite good. When they arrived at the gate of An County, he had already found an inn in the city, so the group walked towards the city without any further delay at the gate. Because the rain had started to fall at this time. Although it was not heavy, the pattering was very uncomfortable. This made Ling Sanlang and Ling Wuya, who grew up in the north, feel very uncomfortable. The clothes on their bodies stuck to their skin, which made them feel uncomfortable. They were miserable.
Entering the inn, Mr. Lan specially asked for an extra courtyard, just for the Ling family. The Ling family was not polite. Now, the entire Lan family relies on the protection of the three people of the Ling family, so it is not enough to enjoy this kind of treatment. point.
The steward of the Lan family was quite attentive. When they entered the inn, hot water was ready. Ling Xiaoxiao, Zhou Yunniang and Ling Wanya started washing up first. Sitting in the warm hot water, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh in comfort. tone.
"Erya, you have worked really hard during this period, and Sanlang, you need to worry about the safety of this big team."
When Zhou Yuniang saw Ling Xiaoxiao sitting in the bathtub with her eyes closed, she thought Ling Xiaoxiao was tired, so she naturally felt distressed and said with red eyes.
This made Ling Xiaoxiao dumbfounded. She was not tired at all, but she hadn't taken a good bath for a long time. She was tired. Compared with fighting zombies in the last days of her previous life, these days were like those of a fairy. Looking at her mother's appearance, she smiled hurriedly. He said comfortingly,
"Mom, where are you thinking? It's not that I'm tired, but I feel like I haven't had such a good bath for a long time. Now I finally have a bath. Isn't this enjoyment!"
After hearing Ling Xiaoxiao's explanation, Zhou Yunniang's face became a little better, "Well, when we get to Yongzhou Mansion, let's buy some land, build a yard, and live a good life."
The mother and daughter were chatting and washing up, but they came out in just over a quarter of an hour. There was nothing they could do. Although they could take a good wash at the inn, there were still two men waiting to wash up outside.
When Ling Xiaoxiao and the others came out of the shower, they saw that the dark clouds in the sky were darker than before. Looking at the dark sky, Ling Xiaoxiao frowned. It looked like he might not be able to leave for a while.
Sure enough, in the following three days, the rain here basically never stopped. Although it would stop sometimes, the stop time was very short, and then it continued to rain. This made Ling Xiaoxiao, who wanted to set off quickly, had to Choose to stay here and wait for the rain to stop.
On the fourth day, the rain stopped and the sun came out. The moment Ling Xiaoxiao saw the sun, she felt very happy, as if she hadn't seen the sun for a long time. She was about to ask when she was going to leave. The innkeeper's words gave up the idea of asking.
"Alas, the rain has stopped, but this mountain road is very difficult to walk after the rain these days. It will take four or five days at least. You can only go on the road after the road surface dries."
Ling Wuya and Ling Sanlang, who had been hiding in the room for several days, were also made by the shopkeeper's words and returned to the yard listlessly. Zhou Yuniang laughed after hearing this.
"No, the shopkeeper is right. It's true. We've been waiting for three or four days. It doesn't matter if we wait for a few more days. Just wait. Oh, by the way, Erya, when I went to the yard next door in the morning , Man Niang mentioned the names of your siblings, saying that since we have gone to a new place, why not change the names, they always sound like this, and the names of Wuya and Wuya are not elegant."
Ling Xiaoxiao was eating nuts. This kind of nuts is unique to Shudi Mountain. It is very delicious. Ling Xiaoxiao likes it better, so she asked Ling Sanlang to go out and buy it for her several times in the past two days. She heard her mother say this , also remembered that although he was called Ling Xiaoxiao, that was the name of his previous life. In this life, the name of the original owner was still Ling Erya, which was indeed not nice to hear, so he said.
"Then change it, but does my father know?"
Zhou Yunniang shook her head, "I haven't told him yet. Didn't I just think of it just now? But I don't think your father will object to this matter. After all, changing the name to something nicer will make it sound better, right?" Besides, Man Niang said something about the meaning, but I don’t quite understand.”
