Chapter 35 On the Road 2

In the end, Wang Yu still didn't want to be treated like eating and drinking, and retreated under Zhou Xinrou's pitiful gaze.

I promised to take care of both food and accommodation by myself, but the sisters were responsible for dirty clothes and other things.

Zhou Erya pinched the clothes he had just changed with two fingers. The smell was a little irritating, so she had to lift her away.

"Erya, you Brother Wang only has two sets of clothes, so don't wash it for me, otherwise you have to buy it with money if you don't have clothes."

Looking at the little girl's frowning, Wang Yu smiled and said, "Remember to wash it clean!"

"I understand, you annoying!"

Zhou Erya wrinkled her nose and snorted coldly at him.

Since I have been running on the official road, I am not far from Jiaxing Mansion at this time. I guess I should be able to enter the city before dark.

Zhou Xinrou urged him to rush to the road, but Wang Yu naturally had no objection, but Zhou Erya made him look a little sideways.

The little girl followed her all the way, without saying a word, even if her little face turned pale, she didn't say a word.

Wang Yu leaned over and asked if he wanted to recite it. He was despised and said that this girl has come through all the mountains and rivers, and she still cares about this path?

Wang Yu gave a thumbs up and praised him, sighing that his master did not lie to him, and the woman walking in the world must have a big foot.

Zhou Erya heard about chasing him and the sound of play diluted her fatigue. Zhou Xinrou looked at her sister's happy look and laughed.

...

On the other hand, he slapped each of the men around him in anger with a slap in the face with the butler who lost his wife. But getting angry at this time was useless and had to return.

Thinking of the methods his master might have, he felt a chill in the hot summer.

When he returned to Shaohe County, the butler arrived at his mansion worriedly.

There is a plaque hanging on the red painted gate, with two large characters with flying dragons and phoenixes dancing and iron painted silver hooks written on it.

"Cui Mansion"

It is located in the north of the county town and covers a very wide area. It has pavilions, towers, rockery and flowing water. It is magnificently arranged but elegantly.

A discerning person can tell at a glance that without the accumulation of several generations, there will be no such foundation and style.

The butler did not stop all the way and went directly to the study.

Before he could get close, he heard a woman's giggle from inside. He immediately understood what was going on, stood honestly outside the door, not daring to make any noise.

This wait took more than an hour until a woman who was so proud of herself, she twisted her waist and walked out of it.

The housekeeper fell to the ground and shouted, "Please punish me, but the old slave did not catch the two women."

There was no movement in the study, it was quiet.

The butler didn't dare to look up, and cold sweat flowed down. Just when he almost couldn't hold back his urge to pee, he finally heard the words.

"Tell me why you can't even catch up with two girls with a few riders?"

"Is it... it's because a bald boy suddenly appeared. He was so capable of running. He actually ran faster than a horse with a carrying man. He had a long physical strength. He was tired even though the horse was tired."

The housekeeper was also very aggrieved. If he was defeated head-on and snatched away, he wouldn't have to be so worried.

He ran away for a day today, and his whole body was almost disintegrating, but he didn't even touch the bald boy's hair and ate a stomach full of dust.

The study room was silent again, and the butler pressed his head tightly and did not dare to make any moves.

The entire Shaohe County knows that Ning accompanies the magistrate and not Cui Yanwang.

If you offend the county magistrate, you may be imprisoned in the heavenly prison or hit a few boards. Those who are not lucky will lose their heads. Those who are lucky may have nothing to do.

However, King Cui Yan is different. If you provoke him, as long as you still make a living in this place, you will definitely not be able to escape, and the outcome will be very miserable.

King Cui Yan's original name was Cui Bin. He was the distant clan of the Minister of War in the current dynasty. He was also one of the top noble family surnames in the Great Zhou Dynasty and the son of the Cui family.

All kinds of identities are all the background of a small Shaohe County.

If the county magistrate had not been sent to monitor him, I'm afraid the entire county town will be under Cui Bin's tyranny now.

There was another silence that made people feel heart-pounding, and the sound in the room finally rang again, "Those three people went to Jiaxing Prefecture City. I have sent someone to contact there. After I succeed, I will send someone to send him here, but I want my own people to pick him up."

After a pause, Cui Bin continued: "Old Li, you have been with me for so many years, and you have worked hard even if you have no credit. So this time I will not punish you, and I will give you a chance to make meritorious service."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Butler Li was almost exhausted after hearing this, and kowtowed on the ground, not caring even if there was a large piece of blood.

"Go and bring me the person. If you can't do it well this time, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"The old slave will definitely go through fire and water to share the worries of the master."

After leaving the study, he breathed a sigh of relief. Things had a turnaround. Butler Li ordered a few guards who were the best and most steadily in the house and rushed to the road again.

...

Wang Yu and the other two finally arrived at Jiaxing Prefecture City.

Compared with county towns and villages, the central city of a prefecture has no comparison in its prosperity.

The size of the city gate and the number of pedestrians coming and going are much stronger.

The high city walls are full of traces of time. Although many places have been renovated, they cannot cover up the heavy weight.

The three of them lined up into the city gate, and faced a street that could accommodate eight carriages at the same time. There were no vendors selling here, only passers-by, whistling away from time to time.

"Let's go to the inn first?" Wang Yu asked, "Or go eat?"

Zhou Xinrou was a little hesitant. They didn’t have much money on them, so they could save a little, and if they wanted to make money, they could only sell their skills.

In such a big place as Jiaxing, I don’t know how much the rules are. I was driven away in Shaohe County because I wanted to save money.

If you continue to do this here, if you encounter a domineering person, the two sisters may suffer again.

"Let's find a place to stay first. As for what I eat, I still have some dry food. If the prince is not used to it, you can eat something else by yourself."

Wang Yu knew that their sisters were hard to come out, so he nodded with a smile and didn't say anything.

Zhou Erya glared at him, and the dirty clothes that had been replaced were still in her small package. Every time she walked a distance, she could smell a strange smell, which made her almost vomit the little thing in her belly again.

After searching for a while, the three of them finally found a relatively cheap inn.

But relatively speaking, the price of ten cents a night cannot be said to be expensive, but Zhou Xinrou's pitiful wallet has only more than twenty copper coins in her pitiful wallet. She will have to be swept out after two days of staying.
