Rise From the Humble

Chapter 184: another journey

  Chapter 184 Start the journey again

Who knows dishes on the menu, A Journey.

  Since ancient times, doing farm work has been very hard work, facing the loess and back to the sky, and having a backache after a day of hard work. Autumn is scorching, hot and dry. Cutting rice in the rice fields is hot and tiring. Zhu Ping'an has to drink two pots of water for a day's work. This kind of physical work is impossible without sufficient water. It started in the morning, and at night, the pain from grabbing the rice stalks was excruciating, red, and my waist almost no longer belonged to me.

   Hard work is hard work, but it is still very happy to see the yellow and clear rice drying in the field in the evening, especially seeing his mother’s smiling face when his father and mother said that this year’s harvest is better than last year, which made Zhu Ping’an feel very happy.

   However, in the busy autumn harvest life, Zhu Pingan only participated in two days before embarking on another harvest journey with his bags on his back.

Because the family was busy with the autumn harvest, the weather suddenly turned cloudy and there were signs of rain. It was time to rush to harvest, so Zhu Pingan refused his father's proposal to drive an ox cart to take him to the town, but went alone with his luggage on his back. Walk to Kaoshan Town, and then prepare to take a carriage to Yingtian from there.

  Despite the busy farming season, his mother, Mrs. Chen, rushed to make two sets of new birth uniforms for Zhu Pingan overnight. Zhu Pingan grew up, and the previous clothes were a little too small. In addition to clothes, Chen also made some jerky, oil cakes, pickled cucumbers and other pickles, and packed a large bag for Zhu Pingan to take with him on the road.

  So at this time, Zhu Pingan was walking alone on the road to Kaoshan Town with a big bag on his back. The bag was heavy and it was a bit difficult to walk.

  In the sky, as if the **** accidentally knocked over the inkstone full of ink, thick dark clouds quickly covered half of the sky.

  Zhu Ping'an looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and couldn't help pulling out a bamboo umbrella from his luggage, just in case.

  jingle jingle

  A string of camel bells on top of carriages came from behind

   At this time, there are still people going to the town. Aren’t they all busy with the autumn harvest? Zhu Pingan complained, and then leaned to the side of the road.

  The horse-drawn carriage rattled away from Zhu Ping'an's side, and there were still two carriages one behind the other, bringing up a cloud of dust, which forced Zhu Ping'an to hold his breath.

  The horse-drawn carriage galloping far away. But suddenly went back and forth, and then stopped in front of Zhu Ping'an, gently lifted the curtain with a pair of slender hands, and a playful pretty face appeared in Zhu Ping'an's sight.

   "Cackling toad. It's really you. Why, you're just bouncing around to catch up with the exam?"

  The black-bellied girl Li Shu covered her small cherry mouth, smiling hopelessly, her melodious voice full of ridicule.

  Proud and coquettish

  Looking at the arrogance of the black-bellied girl Li Shu. Every now and then, Zhu Pingan had the urge to pull this girl onto her lap and give her a spanking.

   "A good dog doesn't get in the way."

  Zhu Pingan glanced at the black-bellied girl, and said something indifferent.

"you!"

  The dark-bellied girl's face turned black with anger at Zhu Ping'an's words, and she stared at Zhu Pingan vigorously with her big dark eyes.

  The little maid of Baozi leaned out from the front of the carriage puffing her cheeks, and defended her lady, "Zhu Pingan, how can you talk like that, my lady was kind enough to give you a ride."

   "Who is going to take this toad!" The black-bellied girl rolled her eyes and said angrily with a dark pretty face.

   "Miss, you just now" Baozi's little maid had just finished speaking halfway, when she was stared at by the black-bellied girl and dared not speak any further.

ha? Zhu Pingan couldn't help but glanced at the dark-bellied girl, how kind is this girl?

   "What are you looking at. If you look at it again, you will goug your eyes and make you a blind toad!" The black-bellied girl found that Zhu Ping'an was looking at her, so she gave Zhu Ping'an a stern look, threatening with her little tiger teeth.

   Sure enough, black-bellied girls are not so cute!

   "What are you still doing in a daze, drive the car, let's go!" The black-bellied girl suddenly lost her temper at the driver driving the car in front.

  Thus, the two carriages clanged away from Zhu Ping'an one after another, taking away another string of smoke and dust.

  This smelly girl!

  He brought two carriages with him when he went out, the old lady must have brought one. Really enjoy it, what a lady!

  Zhu Pingan made a complaint, carried his luggage and continued walking.

   Soon, though. The two carriages turned around and came over again, stopping in front of Zhu Ping'an again.

   "Get in the car, just treat me as a meritorious deed. Hmph, if I didn't go to the temple to offer incense and make a wish, I wouldn't take you with me."

  The dark-bellied girl had a dark face, full of reluctance.

   "Hurry up and get in the car. My lady is going to the temple to pray for the master's safety. You have to do good deeds along the way." Baozi's little maid also poked her head out from the front, waving her little paw to ask Zhu Pingan to get on the carriage quickly.

   "Thank you very much." Zhu Pingan cupped his hands.

Just when Zhu Pingan was about to get into the carriage, he heard the black-bellied girl holding her nose again and became disgusted: "Ah, who asked you to get on this carriage, I don't know if men and women will kiss or not, go to the carriage behind! So delicious!"

   "Oh, I'm sorry." Zhu Pingan apologized belatedly.

   After arching his hands, Zhu Ping'an turned around and went to the carriage behind. The driver helped Zhu Ping'an put his luggage into the carriage. There was only one old woman in the carriage, and the tribute incense candles did not take up much space. Even when Zhu Pingan sat in, he was very relaxed.

  This black-bellied girl is really delicate. One carriage is enough, but there are two carriages. It is because she dislikes the taste of incense and candles.

The carriage should be faster, and arrived at Kaoshan Town in less than half an hour. Before Zhu Pingan got off the carriage, he had no time to thank the black-bellied girl, and heard the black-bellied girl impatiently urging the driver to drive the carriage away. .

   At this time, the sky was even more gloomy, with dark clouds covering the sky above Kaoshan Town in layers. Along with the dark clouds came a gust of east wind, which rattled the leaves of the trees on both sides of the road, as if cheering for the dark clouds.

  Zhu Ping'an was carrying his luggage in the town to find out if there was a carriage to Anqing Mansion. Zhu Ping'an didn't plan to take the carriage to Yingtian this time, as the carriage bumped him a lot last time. This time I plan to go to Anqing Mansion, and then take a boat along the Yangtze River from there, and go down the river, which is fast and safe.

   There are not many horse-drawn carriages from Kaoshan Town to Anqing Mansion, and you must pay more attention to safety when traveling in ancient times. Zhu Pingan searched for a long time before finding a convoy to Anqing. This convoy is used to going to Anqing, and it can also pick up pedestrians for delivery. It has been for many years and it is reliable. Therefore, Zhu Pingan paid the money, took a carriage together with two people, and went to Anqing Mansion together in seven or eight carriages.

  The weather is cloudy and hot, and it is estimated that there may be a lot of rain.

   I don’t know if my parents have covered the harvested rice, but I don’t need to worry about it. My parents have been planting the land for many years, and this matter is still difficult for them. This kind of weather is not unheard of in previous years, and the parents are coping well. As long as people are not lazy, nothing is a problem.

  The carriage roared and headed all the way to Anqing Mansion.
