Chapter 9 There is one bad thing
Chen Chunxing was dragged back by Diao, and received two strong slaps on his buttocks. He fell sideways on the cart with his teeth bared.
Shen Zhixia quickly put the umbrella over her head.
When they came out, they brought two umbrellas in total, one of which was held by Chen Mingqiu.
He took Chen Yandong's place, sitting among a pile of luggage, with a silly child sleeping soundly on his lap.
Chen Chunxing was amazed, "Our little fourth child's physique is really enviable."
Chen Mingqiu…puffed up his cheeks, “I may be envious, but why are you looking at me?”
Chen Chunxing sneered, but before he could even make a joke, Diao hit him with a finger.
"What good things have you done again! What good things!"
God knows how panicked she felt when she went over and saw an official following her!
I only regret that I didn’t use a rope to tie the girl’s belt!
Chen Chunxing jumped off the cart and spread his hands: "I didn't do anything good, but I did do one bad thing."
She just wanted to find a random excuse to get away with it, but she didn't expect to scare the horse.
The person was saved, but I took the blame myself... I feel a bit of a loss this time.
After listening to Chen Chunxing's narration, Diao Shi trembled and covered her chest with her hands. "They can't come and settle accounts with us, right?"
"It should... not be possible, right?" Chen Chunxing felt guilty for a rare time.
She had never seen the noble man in person, so naturally she didn't know his character, but judging from the woman, she didn't seem to be someone who was easy to get along with.
I'm afraid that trouble will happen sooner or later.
"It's better for the county magistrate to take charge now. Fortunately, we are exiled prisoners. As long as we haven't arrived at the place, we are under the jurisdiction of Lord Wei."
Chen Chunxing's comfort was met with a big eye roll from Diao.
The term "heartless" probably refers to people like her.
The group moved forward slowly.
After walking for a while, we received an order to change route from the front.
When they heard that the officials had found a place to shelter from the rain, the people who had been pausing for a moment immediately had sparks on their soles.
They were lucky that not long after Wei Da and others left, they found a natural cave.
The place is quite big and can barely fit everyone in.
Only horses and vehicles must be left outside.
"What? Let my master squeeze in with these people? That won't do..."
The woman got off the mule cart holding an umbrella. She was halfway through complaining when she was frightened by the driver's shout and turned pale.
"Oh no! The master hit his head and there's a huge pool of blood!"
The Shen family happened to pass by...
Yang Yi raised his head and said in a muffled voice, "How about we run?"
Everyone looked at him.
"I'm still standing here." Lao Zhang said dissatisfiedly.
After sending the little girl to find her family, he didn't leave too far away. He now arranged for everyone to go into the cave, thinking of finding a drier and better place for the little girl so that they could be closer.
It turns out that this family really doesn’t treat me as an outsider!
Chen Chunxing lightly kicked Yang Yi and deliberately glared: "If you don't know how to speak, just shut up."
"Oh." Yang Yi lowered his head again.
Diao smiled at Old Zhang and said, "Sir, you see how serious this matter is..."
But smiling is uglier than crying.
Old Zhang's expression softened a bit, thinking it was an unprovoked disaster. He gestured towards the Shen family and said, "You go in first. I'll ask Wei Tou'er to take a look."
Diao naturally agreed with this.
I never thought of escaping when I was in the village, and it was even more impossible now that it was late at night and raining heavily.
In the cave.
Dozens of people were crowded together, already stretched to the limit. When they saw the Shen family pushing a cart in, they immediately became unhappy.
"Hey, didn't the officer say that only people are allowed in? The carriages have to stay outside!"
Chen Chunxing glanced around in surprise, "Carriage? Where are the horses?"
She patted Yang Yi with a smile, "You won't say anything about him, will you?"
Yang Yi raised his head again and stared at the person who spoke.
“…”
The little man smiled awkwardly and retreated back into the crowd. No matter how Li pushed him from behind, he didn't say another word.
The fool that the Shen family picked up didn't look scary, but once he set his eyes on you, you would feel inexplicably scared.
As weird as that crazy girl!
"Hey, I don't mean to scold you, but the place is not big enough, and you still insist on bringing this useless thing in. When the officials come later, you won't have any good consequences!"
Li curled her lips and spoke so loudly that she was afraid that others might not hear her.
"You black-hearted old hag..."
How could Diao allow her to provoke her family? She put her hands on her hips and was about to scold her, but she caught a glimpse of Chen Chunxing piling up the backpack in the corner and taking out two old clothes to put on the cart. She immediately changed her mind.
"...What are you doing? Are you confused by your anger?"
Chen Chunxing sighed, "I don't want to either..."
As soon as the words fell.
Wei Da walked into the cave carrying a person on his back. He looked around and found that only the Shen family's cart looked relatively clean. He immediately walked over and put the person down.
"Look, it's coming in handy." Chen Chunxing glanced at Li indifferently.
Li was speechless and hid in the crowd in shame.
Although she had never seen the unconscious man, she recognized the woman who was following the two men and holding an umbrella for the man.
The woman's skirt was soaked, and her hair, which had been straight and neat during the day, was now messy and stuck to her forehead. She no longer had the domineering demeanor she had before.
The people who watched this scene shrank back and hid inside, no longer complaining about the crowd.
Even a fool can guess who the unconscious man is!
I'm afraid something big is going to happen today!
I just hope it doesn’t bring trouble to my family!
"Master Wei, please find a doctor for my master! If anything happens to him here, the Duke's Mansion will not let you go!"
After hearing what the woman said, Wei Da frowned unhappily.
"You don't have to do this. Since I have accepted Brother Xue's request, I will definitely send the person to the destination."
The road of exile is difficult, not only for the prisoners, but also for the officials.
Soon, the old doctor who was accompanying them was called over. Seeing this scene, he squatted beside the cart and took the patient's pulse without asking any questions.
Chen Chunxing couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The man had gray hair on his temples and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. He looked to be in his fifties or sixties.
Knowing that he was going to the border and the journey was long, he still wore a white dress. His eyes were stained black and gray by the mud. He looked both clean and sloppy, which gave people a sense of contradiction.
The more she looked at it, the more strange it seemed to her, and her palms began to itch.
In order to prevent himself from "going crazy", Chen Chunxing looked away.
A somewhat familiar face came into view.
Only then did Chen Chunxing realize that the master the woman was talking about was not that old.
This boy is at the age of being full of vigor and vitality. His appearance has the childishness unique to young people. His facial features cannot be said to be particularly outstanding, but they are very attractive.
Perhaps tortured by the pain, the young man's handsome sword-like eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and his bloodless thin lips were tightly pursed...
Chen Chunxing hissed.
I subconsciously took two steps forward.
It happened that the old doctor gave the man an injection in the philtrum.
He slowly woke up under Shen Chunxing's nervous gaze, but he only had time to say "you" before closing his eyes again.
Chen Chunxing...quickly retreated.
Although they looked about 70% similar, this young man with arrogance in his eyes was not the one she expected.
That’s right, there is no such coincidence in the world.
We met under the Naihe Bridge and met again in these three thousand small worlds.
"Oh, oh, oh, oh..."
The old doctor took the patient's pulse and kept shaking his head.
"How exactly?"
Wei Da was given a headache by the woman's crying and urged her impatiently.
"It's difficult..." The old doctor glanced at the woman who was crying even louder, thought for a moment and said, "At least she won't die."
"In that case, you take care of him first. We'll set off at daybreak. I remember this place is not far from Yuanxi Town. We can find another good doctor then."
The rain outside stopped, and Wei Da immediately found an excuse and led the two of them out to find firewood to make a fire.
Before the old doctor could react, Chen Chunxing sucked his teeth.
What she said... If it were her, she would have just abandoned the stall on the spot.
Fortunately it wasn't her.
The old doctor was quite perceptive. He knew that Wei Da was eager to get rid of the woman's entanglement, so he didn't get angry with her. He just sat down on the ground and kept guarding the man.
The Shen family's good place was taken away, but Diao did not complain.
At the moment, everyone was wet, tired and cold, and had no energy to struggle. Since the woman didn't think of her home, let's not remind her for now.
She signaled to the eldest girl and took her family to hide on the back of the cart. The distance was neither far nor close, but if others wanted to get close to their luggage, they had to pass Yang Yi first.
Just as Shen Chunxing turned around, no one noticed that the boy on the cart's eyelids were trembling violently, as if he was fighting a nightmare.
The old doctor who had been taking the patient's pulse muttered to himself.
"Hey, you're really alive?"
