The smile on Su Luo's face disappeared and he became serious.
Although Xue Wanrou is young, she is not someone who likes to stir up trouble. Instead, she is very sensible.
If nothing unexpected happened, there would be no need to worry.
She suddenly left Xiaoyun Village. Something must have happened, and she didn't want others to know.
Su Luo asked in a deep voice: "What's the situation?"
Zhang Yu hesitated for a moment before saying, "There was a carriage parked at the entrance of the village. When Madam Wanrou saw it, her expression changed."
"Then an old woman came down and said something to Madam Wanrou. Then the carriage left and Madam Wanrou followed."
Su Luo's eyes slightly stern, and asked: "She got on the carriage?"
“That’s not the case…”
Zhang Yu said: "Madam Wanrou seemed to be bothered by something, so she didn't get on the carriage, but she kept following behind it."
"Now they are not far away, in a post station on the official road."
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Yu said, "After the carriage arrived at the post station, a young man got out of it."
Hearing this, Su Luo's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, "I understand."
"Let's go and see what happened."
…
There are several types of post stations in Daxia, which can be roughly divided into official post stations and commercial post stations.
As the name suggests, the former is an inn set up by the imperial court, and only people with official positions can stay there.
There is an official post station about every fifty miles on the official road.
There are not so many rules in the commercial inns. No matter what kind of people there are, as long as you have money you can stay there. It is a mixed crowd of good and bad people.
Not only can it be often seen on official roads.
Even on some mountain paths, you can often see commercial post stations.
In fact, there were no commercial post stations in the past. It was just that the officials who managed the post stations at that time sold the rights to open the post stations...
Over the years, there are so many commercial stations.
The nearest official post station to Xiaoyun Village was extremely quiet. A carriage stopped and a young man in a brocade robe walked in.
When the gatekeeper at the post station saw him coming, he immediately stepped forward, checked his identity information, and then saluted and said:
"Mr. He!"
The young man's name was He Chang, and he was the heir of a small family in Qingzhou.
Although it is just a small family, it is small compared with the Mo family and the Ye family. To the doorman of the post station, it is already a big shot.
Therefore, when He Chang got off the carriage and made some requests, the gatekeeper of the post station showed surprise and hesitation on his face, but still did not refuse.
"Isn't this bad?"
He Chang took out a silver ingot.
The gatekeeper of the post station immediately gave He Chang a thumbs up, "As expected of Mr. He, you can come up with such a perfect plan. You deserve to be the one who brings the beauty home!"
He Chang smiled, with a hint of heat flashing in his eyes.
That’s right, he was Xue Wanrou’s old friend. To be more precise, he and Xue Wanrou were childhood sweethearts.
He Chang once fantasized about marrying Xue Wanrou in the future, but something unexpected happened to the Xue family, and the entire He family immediately cut ties with them.
He Chang's fantasy could not be realized.
I originally thought that I had no chance to meet Xue Wanrou in this life, but when I passed by here, I actually saw a familiar face.
Later, I asked around and found out that not only Xue Wanrou was in Xiaoyun Village, but Xue Jinhan was also there.
Moreover, the two girls seemed to be extremely lonely and depended on each other for survival.
"My biggest dream before was to marry Xue Wanrou, but this time, maybe it won't just be Xue Wanrou, I can also marry Xue Jinhan..."
Just thinking about the beauty of the Xue sisters made He Chang feel hot all over.
…
“Hoo…Hoo…”
Xue Wanrou wiped the sweat off her forehead, panted, and came to the entrance of the post station.
Before entering, a majestic reprimand was heard.
"stop!"
A post station guard came out and glared at Xue Wanrou: "No outsiders are allowed to approach this place!"
"Retreat immediately, or else, don't blame me for being rude!"
Xue Wanrou was stunned, glanced at the He family's carriage parked not far away, and subconsciously said: "Someone asked me to come..."
"Huh? You still dare to quibble!"
The station guard immediately approached Xue Wanrou and said fiercely, "Do you know that approaching here is a crime?"
"You are just an ordinary citizen, and it seems you want me to teach you a lesson..."
Xue Wanrou was trembling with fear.
At this time, He Chang's voice came from inside, "Stop!"
Then, He Chang came out with a smile as bright as spring breeze, and first looked at Xue Wanrou: "Wanrou, don't be afraid!"
Immediately, he glared at the station guard again, "This is my friend! What do you want to do?!"
"Mr. He!"
When the gatekeeper of the post station saw him, he pretended to be terrified and quickly lowered his head to beg for mercy: "Mr. He!"
"I'm sorry, I didn't know this lady was your friend... I was wrong, please forgive me, Master He!"
He Chang waved his hand, "Go ahead, ignorance is not a crime!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the station gatekeeper with secret admiration.
Good acting!
The gatekeeper of the post station grinned after he walked away, thinking in his heart, this young man from a noble family is really going to great lengths for a woman!
Then, He Chang said to Xue Wanrou: "Wanrou, come in, we haven't seen each other for a long time..."
Xue Wanrou, who had calmed down, looked at her old friend He Chang with complicated eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then shook her head.
"No, I won't go in..."
