Chapter 1262: Coming to Beijing (Thanks to the reward from the book friend "Xianyu's Anchen")
It was too cold, and as soon as they got in the car, the three of them closed the windows tightly. Bai Shan even complained that the curtains were too thin and said, "Let's go back and find a piece of felt to block it, otherwise the wind will still blow in through the door."
Manbao and Bai Erlang nodded together, "The sun isn't shining very well today. It looks like it's going to be cloudy, and it looks like it's going to snow."
Luojiang County also had snow, but it was rare, perhaps only once every few years. Moreover, the snow that fell was fine and melted soon after falling into the palm of the hand, so the three of them were still looking forward to the snow.
I heard that the snowflakes in the north are as big as goose feathers, and they spin in the air as they fall, which is particularly beautiful.
Thinking of this, the three of them no longer complained about the cold weather, and instead looked forward to the snow.
The carriage rumbled forward, then slowly stopped at a busy street. The three of them were too lazy to stick their heads out to look, so they asked Daji directly through the curtain, "What's going on up there?"
Daji said, "Someone poured water on the street, and the water froze. Someone walked by and fell. Now there's a quarrel going on. The bailiffs have arrived and are handling the matter."
The three of them sat in the car and waited peacefully, but they could still feel the cold wind coming in through various gaps, making them extremely cold.
Bai Shan said, "We need to buy some furs."
Manbao immediately said, "I saw the fox fur that Han Wu Niang was wearing at Li's house last time. It was really beautiful."
Bai Erlang said to Bai Shan, "If you wear a fox fur coat, wouldn't that make you a male vixen?"
Bai Shan said: "You are suitable for bear skin."
Manbao couldn't help laughing so hard that he tilted his head back and almost fell down.
Bai Erlang couldn't help but exhale, pointed at Manbao and asked, "Then what do you think is suitable for her?"
Bai Shan remained silent.
There were tears of laughter in Manbao's eyes. He looked at him with moist eyes and was very curious.
Bai Shan couldn't help but clear his throat and said, "Tiger skin?"
Bai Erlang laughed like crazy, slapping his thigh and saying, "That's right, that's right, the best is the skin of a tigress, hahahaha..."
Bai Shan also smiled, laughing so hard that his stomach hurt, and he had to dodge to the side to avoid Manbao's fist.
Daji couldn't help but say, "Master, the car is going to fall over..."
The car was really about to fall over. The car was not big to begin with, and the three people were still fighting in it...
"Manbao? Daji?"
Man Bao, who was about to grab Bai Shan's hand and beat him again, was startled when he heard the familiar voice. He stopped and pricked up his ears to listen, "I seem to hear my fourth brother's voice."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang pricked up their ears and heard the familiar voice outside the car calling out, "Daji——"
The two said, "We heard it too."
The three of them immediately got up, lifted the car curtain and went out to look, but because they were too anxious, their heads bumped into each other and they all cried out and fell back.
Daji ignored them. He had already found Zhou Silang in the crowd. He brought the two teenagers and walked against the crowd to find him. When he saw Daji in the car, he couldn't help laughing, causing everyone nearby to look at them.
Zhou Silang pushed through the crowd, took two steps at a time, and climbed onto the carriage, saying happily, "I guessed it was you. I heard Manbao and the others from afar. I looked for them, and it was indeed you."
Manbao crawled out first, covering her head. Seeing her fourth brother, she was overjoyed and rushed over to hug him, "Fourth brother, why are you here?"
Zhou Silang was also very happy to see Manbao. He ruffled her hair with his big hands and then said happily, "Your fourth sister-in-law has given birth to another nephew for you. Isn't it winter now? The medicinal herbs at home have been collected and prepared. I will send them to Beijing and take your fifth brother back with me."
Zhou Silang looked at Manbao carefully and said with some concern, "You seem to have lost weight. Did you suffer in prison? Were you beaten in prison?"
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang finally squeezed out, and Bai Shan answered for her: "Brother Zhou Si, we were not beaten. She lost weight because she was busy these days. We were all fat when we came out of prison."
Zhou Silang looked incredulous.
Bai Erlang couldn't help but say, "It's true. Although I can't go in to see them, Zhou Lijun went there. His family sent them food and drinks every day. They lived a very good life. When he came out, his face was chubby."
Zhou Silang said, "Manbao's face is naturally round."
Bai Shan said, "It's even rounder."
In a nutshell, they didn't suffer when they were in prison.
Zhou Silang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw how confident they were. He patted Manbao's hand and said with a laugh, "I'm glad you're okay. Your parents are worried about you back home. Oh, and by the way, my sister-in-law made you some winter clothes. I didn't realize it was so cold here before I left. I'm afraid those winter clothes aren't enough. You'll need to put on a few more clothes."
Bai Shan glanced ahead and asked, "Brother Zhou Si, who did you come with?"
"Oh, I brought Sanzi and the others with me. We even met County Magistrate Yang on the way. Oh, I forgot to tell them." Zhou Silang turned around and got out of the car, waving to Manbao and the others, saying, "I'll go tell them first. You guys wait."
When the three heard that County Magistrate Yang had also returned, they immediately jumped off the carriage and followed him.
Daji: ...
After thinking about it, Daji could only look back, waved to a servant, handed the carriage to him, jumped off the carriage and followed.
Zhou Silang and his car were in the front and were stopped by two families who were arguing with each other.
Zhou Silang squeezed to the side of a carriage and bowed to the people inside and said, "County Magistrate Yang, County Magistrate Tang, I found my sister and the others..."
The car window was pushed open, and a man stuck his head out, just in time to meet the eyes of Bai Shan and the other two who had squeezed in. Bai Shan's eyes lit up, but County Magistrate Tang laughed out loud, "This is really fate! I didn't expect to run into you on my first day back in Beijing."
The three of them saluted quickly, and Bai Shan even greeted him warmly, "County Magistrate Tang, please come to my house when you have time."
County Magistrate Tang nodded and said, "I'll definitely go some other day."
The three of them didn't see County Magistrate Yang, so they curiously asked, "Isn't County Magistrate Yang in the car?"
County Magistrate Tang glanced back and said with a smile, "There are so many people here now, he wouldn't dare show up."
The three were puzzled, "Why?"
A voice came from inside the car, "Come up and talk."
County Magistrate Tang smiled slightly and closed the car window.
The three of them were not shy and simply stepped on the horse stool put down by the coachman and got on the carriage.
Their carriage was much more spacious than theirs, but it didn't seem very spacious at the moment. Yang and Shu sat at the top, with a table in front of them and a chessboard covered with chess pieces. It was obvious that they were playing chess.
Manbao looked at the chessboard curiously, and before he even said hello, he couldn't help but reach out to take the chess pieces. "Will the chess pieces fall off if we play in the car? Hey, it's fixed..."
Manbao took a little effort to pick up the chess piece. She glanced at the chess piece in her hand, then at the chessboard, and immediately smiled, "It's a magnet."
Good night
