Regarding Zijuan's words, the mother-in-law nodded in agreement.
Then Zijuan immediately said to the person in the crowd, "He is one of ours."
Hearing Zijuan's words, the man wanted to say a few words to her, but when he saw that she was a young girl and she was pretty, the man's words became gentle unconsciously.
"Girl, who are you?" he asked.
Zijuan just whispered, "This man is my coachman. I just asked my nanny to look for him everywhere. I didn't expect him to be here."
Hearing Zijuan's words, the man only said, "This man just drank too much and fell over and fell into the manure pit."
Zijuan nodded when she heard this, "I just heard from grandma, thank you so much for saving him just now."
After saying this, Zijuan just winked at Mrs. Zhang, and Mrs. Zhang immediately handed a piece of silver to Zijuan's hand, and Zijuan took the silver and took a few steps forward.
"Brother, thank you very much just now. If it weren't for you, my coachman would have drowned here."
Hearing Zijuan's words, the coachman only said, "Yes, you are on your way, so you should drink less."
Zijuan didn't argue, she sighed and said, "That's what I said."
Then she just gave the money in her hand to the other party: "Brother, this is a little bit of our thoughts, please don't dislike it."
As soon as Zijuan handed over the money, the man immediately said, "Girl, I can't accept this money."
Zi Juan asked, "Why can't you accept it?"
The man immediately said, "Saving people is the right thing to do. I didn't save this kid just to get a reward from you, so I can't take it!"
However, Zijuan heard this and said, "No, you should want this money more. You are a good person, and saving people is definitely not the right thing to do. Your move allowed a life to be continued, and it also saved a family from grief." , so just take this money."
Really unable to recommend him, the man had no choice but to reluctantly accept the money given by Zijuan.
And it was also because he accepted Zijuan's money and saw that she was just a weak woman, so the man only helped Zijuan deal with the subsequent problems.
Seeing that the coachman was not awake, he immediately looked towards the crowd and asked, "Is there any doctor here?"
Someone in the crowd stood up and said, "Let me take a look."
Seeing the man standing up, the young man immediately stood up and made room for the person who looked like a doctor to treat him.
Then the doctor took his pulse and said in a low voice, "You saved the life just in time. This kid's problem is not big. Just clean him up later. But he seems to be drunk. At this moment and a half, I’m afraid I won’t wake up.”
Upon hearing this, Zijuan was secretly worried, "Doctor, when will he wake up?"
The doctor was a little confused when he heard this, "I can't say for sure. Maybe I woke up in an hour or two, maybe I slept for half a day."
Upon hearing this, Zijuan became even more anxious.
"He is our driver. If we let him sleep for half a day, do we have to spend the night here?" Zi Juan said anxiously.
The doctor just said, "Now it seems that this is the only way."
Zijuan felt anxious after hearing this. She turned to look at the others and said, "Everyone, do you have any extra drivers? Can you take us to Lander County? As long as anyone is willing to take me there, the price is easy to negotiate."
However, although everyone was moved when they heard Zijuan's offer, they also had their own things to do, so everyone just watched everything silently at the moment.
Zijuan shouted around and saw no response, only feeling embarrassed.
Finally, the owner of this small shop came out. When the owner saw Zijuan like this, he couldn't help but said, "Girl, although our store didn't allow anyone to stay overnight in the past, today's incident was also caused by our negligence." , so if this person hasn’t woken up yet, you can rest here with us for the night.”
Zijuan looked at the man who had no village in front of him and no store in back and didn't speak immediately.
The shop owner naturally knew that Zijuan had concerns about safety. After all, they
Most of the people in this group are women, and they don’t have access to villages or shops. Who wouldn’t be afraid of them?
Therefore, the shopkeeper immediately explained, "Don't worry, girl, we are doing business here, and this is still under the emperor's feet. No little thief dares to have an idea here, and there is a Wuhou Shop not far away. Our family does business here." During the business, I sometimes stay overnight in the store, and nothing has happened for so long. If the girl is still not at ease, she can leave a key alone at night. How about leaving the girl alone in the store? "
The shop owner said so, and there really is no better choice at the moment.
After all, no one wants to be their coachman, and no one among them knows how to drive a carriage, let alone knows the road.
So after Zijuan weighed her skills, she finally chose to accept the shop owner's kindness.
After discussing with the shop owner, the shop owner immediately arranged for someone to send the coachman to wash himself.
Zijuan went to the front hall.
After all, the smell was so disgusting that Zijuan couldn't help but vomit after a while.
After vomiting, she calmly returned to the lobby.
A group of people in the lobby still didn't know what was going on.
When one of the maids saw Zijuan coming, she immediately said to Zijuan, "Miss Zijuan, we have finished eating. Have you found the coachman? Shouldn't we get on the road now?"
Hearing the maid's question, Zijuan said helplessly, "We are not going on the road today."
Upon hearing this, another maid asked in surprise, "Miss, why don't we hit the road? We've all eaten. We can still reach the next destination smoothly if we set off now."
Zijuan did not answer their questions immediately. She just asked rhetorically, "Which of you can drive a carriage?"
Upon hearing Zijuan's question, everyone just shook their heads.
Zijuan then asked, "Does any of you know the way to get to Rand County from here?"
Upon hearing Zijuan's words, no one in the audience said a word.
Zijuan then explained the situation they were facing now, "The coachman drank too much and fell into the pit. He was rescued just now. He won't wake up for a while. If he wakes up, he probably won't be able to hit the road right away." , even if we can get on the road, we will probably miss the time to enter the city, so instead of spending the night in the wilderness, we might as well settle here first."
After hearing what Zijuan said, some of the maids were indeed worried about safety issues, "This place has no village in front and no store in the back. Is there any danger?"
Upon hearing this, Zijuan also repeated what the store owner said, "The store owner said that it is very safe here, and there is Wuhou Shop not far away. If anything happens, we will report it to Wuhou. If you don't want to worry, it's okay." Leave one person on duty at night. Anyway, we will set off early tomorrow morning."
Seeing Zijuan say this, everyone naturally responded in unison.
After solving this difficult problem, Zijuan also signaled that everyone could eat slowly.
But although she asked everyone to eat slowly, she couldn't take a bite.
After all, she had been staying next to the cesspit for so long, so she could only eat.
The small shops on the roadside are also very unique. They basically only do business in the morning and noon.
Now the guests at noon have already done three or two.
There were fewer people as they went further back, so at about three o'clock in the afternoon, they cleaned up the store, and then they drove an ox cart and left here.
After the shopkeeper left, he only specifically told Zijuan and the others, "Please close the door after we leave, so that no one will come in."
Zijuan just nodded cooperatively when she heard this.
At this moment, the coachman showed no sign of waking up, so Zijuan had no choice but to stay in the shop.
Time passed by minute by minute, and after the store left, soon no one was passing by on this road.
After all, most of the people who were on the road were only rushing to the next town. At this moment, except for a few brave people, who would dare to wander around halfway.
Seeing no one there, Zijuan felt both at ease and uneasy.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, a heavy rain suddenly started falling from the sky.
Looking at this situation, I am afraid that no one will pass by here at this moment, so Zijuan only came down from the second floor.
As soon as she came downstairs, a maid said to Zijuan, "Miss, it's getting late. Shouldn't we make a fire to cook?"
Zijuan nodded after hearing this. The store owner was quite kind. Before they left, he also left some dishes for Zijuan and the others.
Although the maids can't drive the carriage, cooking is still no problem.
So after Zijuan agreed to let them cook, the maid immediately started cooking with the others.
After the meal was served, the coachman finally woke up. He was still in a daze.
Seeing Zijuan and the others eating at the dining table, the coachman only said, "Everyone is still eating. Let's eat quickly. We will be on our way soon."
After hearing the coachman's words, everyone's expressions were not good-looking. One of the maids couldn't help but sarcastically said, "You're still awake, and you're still on the road? It's already after five o'clock and almost six o'clock. You're on your way, you're on your way." It’s a night road.”
After hearing the maid's words, the coachman also realized that it seemed to be getting late at this moment, and the sky seemed dark at this moment.
"Is it really afternoon?"
"What time could it be if it wasn't the afternoon? I told you not to drink, but you insisted on drinking and said you were sensible. It's faster to catch the bus after drinking. Now it's better, because you didn't sober up and we missed the time. "
The driver said a little aggrievedly, "Then why didn't you call me?"
"Call you? Who dares to call you? You have fallen into the cesspit. You don't know whether you are dead or alive. Who dares to call you?"
Upon hearing this, the coachman immediately smelled his own scent from left to right, but he soon discovered that the clothes on his body had been changed.
But the old woman said in a lukewarm tone, "Don't smell it. You were picked up not long after you fell. After that, the lady also asked someone to clean you. The store was kind enough to take us in." , otherwise if things look like today, we might not all have to sleep in the wild."
