Chapter 155 156 Sleeping in heavy snow
The shopkeeper heard that the friend of the shopkeeper Chu had brought something, and felt a little strange in his heart. They were all flying pigeons to pass the book, and no one would help with the letter, but this person said that he was a friend of the shopkeeper Chu, so he went with the guy to meet the guests. place.
The shopkeeper saw Zhou Jia, smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Mr. Chu Zhong, the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Bank."
Zhou Jia took a look at Ruyi, Ruyi withdrew, Zhou Jia said to the shopkeeper, "Manager Chu asked me to bring you a word."
Seeing that he wanted to quit, Chu Zhong also ordered his staff to quit. Zhou Jia took out a small wooden sword and a bamboo tube and handed them to Chu Zhong, "The bamboo tube was entrusted to me by General Shen Wu when I was sheltering from the rain in the Taoist temple on the mountain the day before yesterday, implying that we send to the bank."
Chu Zhong took the small wooden sword and the bamboo tube and looked at it. After returning the small wooden sword to Zhou Jia, he hurriedly bowed to Zhou Jia and saluted, "I don't know if it's sir, I have neglected you. Thank you for the news."
Zhou Jia took the small wooden sword with a smile, "Manager Chu, you are busy, my family is still waiting outside the bank, so I won't bother you."
Chu Zhong was also busy sending the news, and he didn't hold back. He sent Zhou Jia to the door and turned back to send the news.
Zhou Jia took Ruyi out of the bank, and the group found an inn called Shuntong Inn in the alley at the end of the street and stayed there.
Li Yu came out of the bath and lay on the bed and stretched, thinking: I still sleep comfortably on the bed, thinking that there are still two months to go, I feel a headache, or the transportation in my previous life is good, from the provincial capital to the capital, just by plane a couple of hours.
Xiaoyu knocked on the door with a water bag, "Young madam, the young master asked you to go down for dinner."
Li Yu opened the door and smiled at Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, have you washed it? Are you tired?"
Xiaoyu squinted her eyes and smiled happily, "I'm not tired, I'll get used to it after sitting for a few days. I also learned to drive the car with Ruyi, so he can rest when he walks on a flat road."
Li Yu saw Xiaoyu's happy appearance, and was also happy for the two of them, "Seeing how happy you are, your parents are relieved now."
Xiaoyu lowered her head, "Sister Xiaoyu, I just miss my parents a little bit. I think they keep nagging at home, and I miss them again when I leave, and I don't know what happened to them."
Li Yu was also a little sad after hearing that, yes! Humans are such creatures. They never know how to cherish what they have in front of them. They all think about what will happen in the future. When they are incompetent, they can only think about it.
"Don't worry, we will write to them when we get to Kyoto." Li Yu comforted Xiaoyu.
A few people rested in Qitong County for a day, bought some necessary items and set off on the trip.
After walking out of the city for more than half an hour, there were snowflakes in the sky, and the cars and pedestrians on the road were struggling to move forward against the cold wind and the snowflakes flying all over the sky.
The group walked to Shen Shimoyoushichu and found that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. Zhou Jia pulled down the brim of his hat and looked worried at the flying snowflakes.
Li Yu opened the curtain and found that the snow was getting heavier and heavier. Looking at the gray sky, he could not even see the road a little further away. Li Yu thought to himself: Everyone is not familiar with the road in this area. Trouble in the ravine.
"Xiaoxi, it's getting dark, and the snow seems to be getting bigger and bigger. I think we have to find a place to live. If the car slips, it will be troublesome."
Zhou Jia looked up and looked around, and found that there seemed to be a house in front of him, and said loudly to Li Yu: "There seems to be a village in front, let's go and have a look."
Li Yu shouted to the lucky man behind: "Everyone follow closely, don't go away."
Zhaocai flicked the whip and signaled that Li Yu heard him. The car drove forward for another quarter of an hour. Zhou Jia could clearly see how many thatched houses on the roadside. Zhou Jia parked the car in front of a thatched house and walked over. Knocking on the door, a man's voice sounded inside, "Who is it?"
Zhou Jia said: "Brother, we passed by here."
A middle-aged man opened the door, looked at Zhou Jia and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Zhou Jia bowed his hands to the man, "Brother, we are going to take the test in Kyoto. Xue Daluyu wants to spend the night with you. Will we give you the money?"
The middle-aged man looked out, saw four carriages parked outside, nodded and pointed to the room in the west wing, "That room can be lived in if it doesn't leak, but my house doesn't have any extra beds. If you don't, Mr. If you think we are poor in the countryside, let’s live here!”
Zhou Jia smiled and said, "Thank you eldest brother, I am grateful for letting us stay here, how can you dislike it! What is your surname, eldest brother?"
The man glanced at Zhou Jia, "Don't give your surname Yu, you can call me Yu San." The man came out of the room and pointed to the room in the west wing, "I'll open the room next to you, and you Stay in that room!"
Zhou Jia thanked and said, "Okay, thank you."
Li Yu leaned against the wooden box in the car, lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the thatched houses in front of him. The low houses had windows that looked like dried tofu. Li Yu looked at the houses and was secretly worried that if the snow was heavy, the houses might collapse.
After talking with the man, Zhou Jia returned to the car and said to Li Yu, "Come down quickly, Madam, the owner of the house promised us to spend the night at his house."
"Okay, everyone come down here and spend the night here." Zhou Jia shouted to Ruyi and the others.
After hearing this, several people got out of the car and started to move into the house to salute, wishing for luck and fortune to feed the horses. Li Yu took Xiaoyu to raise the fire, and the house quickly warmed up.
Yu San carried a load of water to the door and said to Zhou Jia, "Sir, these two buckets of water are here for your use."
"Thank you Big Brother Yu," Ruyi walked over and looked at Yu San, "Big Brother Yu, I have to trouble you to fetch water when I live here. Tell me where the well is, and I will pick it myself."
Yu San smiled honestly, "There is no well in a poor place, we all fetch water from the ditch over there in the woods over there."
After Yu San finished speaking, he put down the bucket and turned to leave. Li Yu and the others cooked and ate the meal in a lively manner. After the conversation was done, Zhou Jia said to them, "Qitong County has just arrived in Annan. Yunxian, to go to Anyun County to pass a mountain called Shenxian Peak, the mountain road is a bit like Yunjian Peak, but not as steep as Yunjian Peak, but some places are narrower than Yunjian Peak, I hope to reach Shenxian Peak , Don't let such heavy snow fall again, otherwise it will be really difficult to pass."
Li Yu smiled and comforted a few people, "Don't be afraid, we used to pull so many things, even Yunjian Peak, are we afraid of Shenxian Peak?"
Xiaoyu also smiled and nodded, "Yes! We are not afraid."
"Yes, we are not afraid." Everyone nodded in agreement.
Ruyi took Zhaocai out to see the animals, Agou and Tie Zhu followed them to the latrine, and everyone went back to the house and set up their tents, Ruyi said to Zhou Jia: "Master, Young Madam, you rest, Lucky Tiezhu and I take turns on duty at night."
Zhou Jia nodded, "Okay, everyone is tired, let's sleep separately!" Li Yu and Xiaoyu got into the tent and rested.
As soon as it was bright, Li Yu woke up and saw Xiaoyu buried her face in the quilt and fell asleep, thinking: This girl is tired too.
Li Yu put on his clothes and skirts and got out of the tent. He saw Tie Zhu walking out with the fodder, and when he saw Li Yu got up, he hurriedly saluted.
