Reborn peasant girl - Chapter 504 Safe Entry into the City
Hu tianming nodded with the old man and took out a long sword hidden under another carriage. He quietly chased after them and secretly protected them.
The old man took out a knife and placed it by his feet. He sat at the door of the tent with his cigarette in his hand, but his ears were erect and he did not let go of any movement.
Jiao Jiao listened to all the arrangements outside in the tent and did not say anything. His hand touched the young man’s forehead and knew that his wound was inflamed, so he gave him a fever medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, and an ice pack in the space to apply to his forehead.
In the end, after finishing these things, she walked out and walked to her grandfather.
“Afraid, Jiao Jiao? ”
The old man fondled his granddaughter’s ponytail and gave the hot stone to her.
Jiao Jiao felt warm and took out two cushions from her space. She hugged her grandfather’s arm and looked at the sunset in the sky. She smiled happily and peacefully.” I’ m not afraid. My grandfather is a great hero. Whoever dares to bully me will dress them like fish! ”
“Haha, okay, this is grandfather’s good granddaughter! ”
The old man laughed heartily at his granddaughter’s coaxing, but he was a little less worried.
After an hour, hu tianming rushed back in a hurry. Seeing that the tent was still so peaceful, he heaved a long sigh of relief.
Jiao Jiao quickly handed him a glass of water. Hu tianming took a sip and said,” old master, the carriage has successfully entered the city. No one is following and no one is stopping it. ”
“That’s good, that’s good. ”
The old man was completely relieved. To be honest, he did not regret saving her, but he must not let his family get involved just because he saved her.
The dong family and lin baoer stayed behind. If they were unable to help, they would be easily caught and used as leverage. However, with old Mr. Zhou’s shrewdness, he would definitely be able to guess his thoughts and leave everyone in the zhou family temporarily.
As for the tent, hu tianming’s kung fu was good enough to protect himself. Jiao Jiao also had a mysterious space and would not suffer any losses if he encountered danger. The only one who was injured was the young man who had no ability to protect himself. However, the lin family had already done their utmost to save him and heal him. After all, no one could risk their lives for strangers or even their families.
Hu tianming didn’ t know who he could learn from. The hole under a tent that had been pulled out had also been filled. If it hadn’ t been for an inch of land, no one would have found traces of people staying here.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Jiao Jiao went into her space to cook some hot food. After the three of them finished eating, they stood guard over the young man.
One night, Jiao Jiao gave him two antipyretics and two milk. The young man’s vitality was very strong, and he did not spit it out. In the fifth heaven, his fever actually subsided.
The three of them were overjoyed. It was raining cats and dogs outside. Hu tianming immediately asked to leave.” Old master, this kid’s condition is stable. Let’s hurry back to the city. The rain can cover the tracks. If anyone is tracking him, we won’ t be able to find him. ”
“Well, I’ll listen to you and leave quickly. ”
The carriage had already prepared bedding so that the dong family could rest comfortably. Now, it was spread out directly, not afraid that the young man’s wounds would crack due to the turbulence.
Jiao Jiao collected the tents and supplies, and the old man personally drove the carriage. Hu tianming was responsible for cleaning up the mess and covering up the traces. After confirming that there was nothing left behind, he caught up with the carriage.
On the twenty mile road, the young man had walked for an hour due to his injuries. When he arrived at the city gate, the city gates were especially lively.
The artisans who carried the burden into the city to find a livelihood had already picked up some wild vegetables and other items for sale, as well as the noble people who went out to play, or to visit their relatives on the road, driving horse-drawn carriages and riding on tall horses, squeezing the gates of the city.
The lin family and the soldiers at the city gate got along very well. Summer watermelons, autumn cold water rice, winter hot buns, and whenever there was anything at home, the lin family would bring some to the soldiers when they entered the city. Some were expensive and some were cheap, but the soldiers all received the favor.
The peasants felt sorry for the copper coins, and their faces were filled with smiles as they secretly scolded people. The nobles even treated them as watchdogs. Only the lin family treated them like their own children and did not give them money. They only gave them things, but it made them feel warm and cared for.
Therefore, upon seeing that hu tianming was carrying a horse carriage and that old master and Jiao Jiao were seated in the carriage, the guards immediately chased away a few people who were carrying burdens and allowed the lin family’s carriage to enter the city.
The old man cupped his hands and smiled. ”
“Old master, you’ re too kind. Hurry up and go into the city. I heard that the storytelling meeting is about to start again.” Even if you don’t tell us, we’re going to be there. ”
A few soldiers smiled and waved their hands. The old man bowed to a few farmers who were standing aside, seemingly wanting to make amends. Then, the carriage quickly went into the city.
The few farmers did not know who the old man was, but when they saw that he was making amends, they were not angry. Instead, they took advantage of this time and quickly followed him in, saving three yuan for the city tax. The soldiers naturally saw it, but they turned a blind eye to it and did not care.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the alley where the zhou family was located.
“Grandfather, are you all right? ”
Yesterday, when they arrived at the zhou family home, father zhou immediately closed the courtyard door and unloaded the carriage. They were never allowed to go out again.
Lin wei and the others didn’ t understand, but they also felt that something wasn’ t right. Although father zhou was concerned about the old family, it was rare for him to have the opportunity to teach a few kids.
It was only then that lin baoer and the dong family found out that the old man had sent them away because he was not looking for a doctor, but because he was afraid that someone would seek revenge at night and implicate them in bad luck!
At that time, dong shi had wiped away her tears, and lin baoer and the others were even more eager to go back and help grandfather.
However, old Mr. Zhou sternly scolded them. No one was allowed to go out. The old man’s arrangement must have been planned and considered. They might have taken the initiative to go back, but it would be bad.
For the first time, lin baoer and the others were ashamed. Although they didn’ t say that they were lazy, they didn’ t work hard to practice martial arts. It was only when faced with such danger that they realized that their pride was actually as thin as window paper.
They were not even as good as Jiao Jiao, a servant girl. Although they did not know what Jiao Jiao had to rely on, they were definitely much stronger than them. Otherwise, grandfather would not chase them away and leave Jiao Jiao behind.
That night, no one in the zhou family’s courtyard fell asleep. They were all guarding the hall, looking at each other wordlessly. They were thinking about their worries and waiting for another carriage to arrive.
Dong shi wanted to entrust brother dao to help out of the city, but father zhou stopped her. Since the old in-laws had sent the child to his courtyard, if he didn’ t go to ruyi square to ask for help, he definitely didn’ t want brother dao to know about saving people, or he didn’ t want the ruffians in the city to get some news.
