Chapter 2268: Father and Son Are Different (April Monthly Ticket Plus 4)
After all, even if the Tubo army did not rob, the luggage lost on the battlefield would be ownerless, and their Anxi army would also collect some of it.
But Guo Zhao, who knew the truth, frowned slightly, thinking that their belongings had been robbed by bandits before, and the things in their luggage were replaced with stones and hay. Although he didn't quite understand why they had to carry such cumbersome things, it didn't prevent him from sympathizing with them.
So soon after he left, he sent someone to deliver Cheng Yi, two ingots of silver, each weighing ten taels.
The servant who came to deliver the money lowered his head and said, "Our master said that if you want to go out and have fun in the future, you can wait until he is done with his busy schedule and he will show you the way and act as a guide. Please don't mind."
Manbao doesn't mind, but it's not good to take other people's money for no reason, right?
But it doesn't look good to keep pushing and refusing...
With this thought, Manbao reached out to take it, and even glanced at Baishan. Seeing that he agreed, she happily took it, and then said to the servant, "We understand. Thank your husband for us. By the way, if he has any difficult injuries in the future, please come to me. I don't have any special skills, but my medical skills are barely enough."
This was the first time someone had expressed gratitude by treating a patient. The servant couldn't find any nice words to say in return, so he could only lower his head and respond dryly with a "yes".
After the people left, Manbao gave Baishan a silver ingot.
Bai Shan took it with a smile and said to her, "This young General Guo is different from his father."
Manbao also felt that they were different. Although they had never met General Guo, but...
Manbao thought for a moment and then whispered, "I always feel that General Guo is a bit stingy."
Bai Shan nodded.
It's very petty. How can the grudges between adults involve the children?
Their feud with the King of Yizhou did not involve their peers, but he, an adult, actually wanted to embarrass the uninformed Liu Huan several times because of the conflict with Minister Liu. This seemed too petty.
What's more, Liu Huan is not only the grandson of Minister Liu, but also the grandson of their aunt Guo. Why do they only make things difficult for Liu Huan for Minister Liu's sake, but not take care of Liu Huan for their aunt Guo's sake?
Not only stingy, but also unkind.
However, the other party has not had any deep malicious intentions so far, so they ignored it.
Bai Erlang and the others finally emerged from the water, their skin almost completely washed off. As they came through the backyard, their hands and feet were so weak that they could barely stand. He asked, "Is there anything to eat? I'm starving."
Manbao looked down at the empty plate on the table, feeling a little guilty. After looking around, he said, "That's the bad thing about the post station. They don't provide meals after mealtime. How about I go out and buy you some on the street?"
Bai Erlang was about to refuse, but when he thought about Yin Huo and the others who might not come out for an unknown time, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
"You don't know, Yin Huo is so slow. I've already washed and dried my hair before he finishes a bowl of egg custard. He's the only one among us who takes a shower after eating."
Bai Shan said: "That's because he is weak, so Changshou is more careful. Didn't I ask you to eat something before washing?"
"You took out dry food. How long has it been there? I had no choice but to eat dry food in the desert. Why should I chew on such hard dry food when I get to the destination?" Bai Erlang remembered something and said to the two of them, "Oh, Liu Huan didn't want to eat either, so he fainted just now."
Bai Shan and Man Bao, who were about to get up to buy something for him, were shocked when they heard this. "What? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Bai Erlang waved his hand and said, "Since Li Ru has saved the man, I won't say anything more. Go get me something to eat. I'm so hungry that I'm seeing stars."
Bai Shan and Man Bao then went out.
Outside the post station was a busy street with many stalls. Manbao picked around, but there wasn't much to choose from. He simply ordered noodle soup for everyone and asked the vendor to deliver it directly to them at the post station.
As a result, when the vendor heard the quantity they ordered, he directly asked someone to set up the stall next to the post station, occupied a piece of open space, and immediately started cooking noodles, sending in a bowl as soon as it was ready.
Bai Shan and Man Bao sat in the lobby and ate noodle soup, which they found quite convenient.
Steward Li had just finished arranging meals for the soldiers. Just as he was about to return to speak, he saw the young master and his companions eating noodle soup. His heart ached. "Young Master, Miss Man, and Young Master Tang, I've asked around. There's a restaurant not far from the post station. Their food is pretty good, but it's past lunchtime and not dinner time yet, so the kitchen isn't lit."
This is a common thing. After all, except for particularly prosperous restaurants, most restaurants are like this and are only open during meal times.
Steward Li said, "I've already ordered the dishes. They've already started cooking again, but we'll have to wait about half an hour."
Because all the ingredients have to be prepared on the spot.
Seeing that Manager Li was about to cry, Manbao smiled and said, "It's okay, let's eat this first and then go eat later.
Manbao asked the waiter at the post station to help bring the prepared noodle soup to Mr. Zhuang and others who were resting in the house. Only then did Liu Huan and others come down, and they sped up as soon as they smelled the fragrance.
Lian Yinhuo sat down at the table and said, "I'm hungry."
Zhou Liru stopped talking and just took a bowl of noodle soup and started eating.
A bowl of noodle soup was just an appetizer for them. They put down their bowls and chopsticks with reluctance. Manbao called Zhou Liru, "Let's go check on the herbs that Manager Li bought."
Bai Shanze and Bai Erlang said, "Let's go for a walk and take a look at the yard. If it's suitable, we'll decide and move in tomorrow."
So everyone went their separate ways.
Mr. Zhuang was preparing the things he needed for the evening banquet. Although he had lost his local specialties, he still had to bring gifts.
Everyone was busy for half an hour, then they met in the lobby of the inn and went to the restaurant to have dinner together.
General Nie and Dayu were also invited to discuss what to do next.
Heavy Rain asked them, "Is this the end of our relationship?"
Bai Shan nodded, "That's it, do you want to check out and leave?"
Dayu thought about it and realized that the cloths they brought out from Yumen Pass were actually still there. The main reason was that they didn't have much stuff, and they were all light cloths, so they were tied to the roof of Bai Shan and his friends' carriage. At that time, the carriage of Bai Shan and his friends was occupied by seriously injured people. When the people came out, the carriage naturally came out, and the cloths naturally came with it.
So they decided to sell the cloth.
He said, "Stay a few more days and see if there's anything suitable to take back. We can take some back."
Even if there are few people in the town and the goods cannot be sold, there are many merchants at Yumen Pass. Many merchants from the Central Plains dare not leave the pass, so they will exchange some things at Yumen Pass and then go back.
Just like Master You.
