Outside Broken Jade City, light rain fell lingeringly.
On the muddy official road, a carriage clattered through the puddles and yellow mud, rushing towards Suiyu City in the misty rain and fog.
The drivers are old-fashioned.
Old Chen has been driving a carriage for twenty years. Even if it snows heavily, he can drive steadily and find the road with his eyes closed.
Just a little rain will not have any impact on Lao Chentou.
Old Chen, who was wearing a raincoat, even had time to raise his voice and said, "Guests, please sit still. Although I am good at driving a car on this rainy day, the road is slippery on this rainy day, so there will inevitably be more bumps."
Old Chentou's carriage is a business in a carriage shop, taking some orders and transporting customers to and from several nearby towns.
Most of the guests served are those who don't have a carriage at home and want to travel far by carriage, or those who meet on the road and want to take a ride.
Most of these carriages will have a sign on both sides of the carriage to tell pedestrians on the road that this is a carriage that can be used by carriages.
There were six people in this carriage.
The carriage was not very big, and with six people in it, it was already a bit crowded.
Near the car door was a young man dressed as a bookboy. Hearing Old Chen's words, he responded to the car door, then turned to look at his young master, "Master, if you keep patiently, we will arrive at Broken Jade City in no time." .”
The young man in brocade clothes ignored the book boy at all, and his eyes involuntarily fell on the opposite side of the carriage.
The girl in Qingshang was holding a snow-white, cat-like pet in her arms. She was sleeping lightly against the carriage with her eyes closed.
The girl's skin is like gelatin, her eyebrows are elegant and delicate, and her temperament is pure. Her whole person looks like a person carved from jade.
Wei Wei has never seen such a beautiful woman with such a good temperament. Ever since the girl got on the carriage, Wei Wei couldn't take his eyes away.
Qingkong opened her blue eyes impatiently and stared closely at the young man opposite, with a trace of human disgust in her eyes.
Weiwei only looked at Lingchu, but he couldn't see the look of a cat in his eyes.
On the other hand, the boy next to him, who had been paying attention to the snow-white cat, his eyes lit up, he pointed at the clear sky, smiled, clapped his hands, and said crisply, "Cat, cat."
The children's joyful voices echoed in the carriage. The woman holding the boy leaned against her husband. Seeing her son making a fuss, she quickly slapped the boy on the butt and cursed in a low voice, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense, be careful of the big cat." Tickle you!”
When the boy was beaten like this by his mother, his face, which was still smiling happily, immediately became deflated, his brows furrowed, and he burst out crying.
The children's sharp and high-pitched cries immediately echoed in the carriage.
The sound of rain dripping outside the carriage was particularly disturbing.
Even Old Chen, who was driving outside the car, heard it and asked in a surprised voice, "What's wrong? What's wrong with the little baby? Are you hungry, or do you want to get out of the car for convenience?"
The woman suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and even her husband complained and bumped her with his elbow.
Smiling, the woman hugged the boy tighter, pinched the boy's hand subconsciously, and whispered, "Quiet down, are you at home? Don't make trouble!"
The pinched hand hurt, and he heard his mother's threatening voice again. Not only did the boy not weaken, but he cried harder and harder, with tears streaming down his face.
Her voice was hoarse from crying.
The book boy couldn't bear it anymore, and an angry look appeared on his face, "Sister, can you tell your child to stop crying?"
The young man in jinyi looked at the boy for a moment, frowning at the loud noise, and then turned his gaze back to the beautiful girl opposite.
Uh-huh!
Suddenly, Wei Wei, a young man in brocade clothes, met a pair of clear and translucent eyes. The sudden gaze made Wei Wei lose his mind for a moment.
Those eyes quickly moved away, and Wei Wei unconsciously felt a hint of disappointment in his heart.
Lingchu glanced indifferently at the young man in brocade clothes opposite him, "What are you looking at?"
Naturally, Wei Wei didn't know what Lingchu was thinking, but when he looked into the girl's clear eyes, he subconsciously felt a little frightened.
The young man in brocade clothes had never left his sight since Lingchu got on the carriage. Lingchu wanted to curse countless times in his heart, but finally calmed down while maintaining his image.
After just one glance, Lingchu looked at the boy who was crying and twitching.
Lingchu was naturally not sleeping, he was just too lazy to talk and just closed his eyes to rest.
Lingchu still knew everything that happened before, such as the cause of this incident.
Qingkong, with a pained look on his face and his paws covering his ears, was picked up by his owner and handed to the boy. Lingchu stretched out a hand, raised Qingkong's paw, and moved it a few times like a lucky cat. The boy was so amused that he forgot to cry for a moment, and stared blankly at Qingkong's innocent appearance.
"Thank you, girl, thank you girl. This boy is always making trouble." Seeing that her son finally stopped crying, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, and her dark face looked a little better.
Lingchu accepted the woman's apology calmly, but did not smile at all. Instead, he stared into the woman's eyes seriously and said lightly, "My Qingkong family doesn't know how to scratch people."
At least, he won't scratch anyone casually.
The grateful look on the woman's face suddenly froze. Looking at the girl's serious face, she opened her mouth again and again, but still couldn't say anything.
On the other hand, the boy in the woman's arms was still crying and burping, his little body twitching, which made Lingchu feel very soft-hearted. Lingchu didn't even stop the boy from reaching out to touch Qingkong.
After successfully touching the soft cat, the boy laughed with satisfaction and excitement, letting out a clear chuckle.
The woman wanted to prevent her son from contacting animals, but she was also afraid that the child would cry again. In the end, she gritted her teeth and pretended not to see it.
Qingkong was also very unhappy, but the child was so noisy that it could only feel aggrieved.
The episode in the carriage was, after all, just an episode.
When the drizzle outside the car was about to stop, the carriage had successfully entered Suiyu City. Old Chen, who was familiar with the roads, stopped the carriage at a crossroads in Suiyu City.
This is connected to the four districts of Broken Jade City: southeast, northwest and northwest. No matter which district you want to go to, you need to go from here.
Near here, there is a tea stall, which is blocked by an oilcloth, which can provide shelter from the rain.
"Girl, I am the third son of the Wei family in the north city of Suiyu City. I am nine out of ten this year. My father is in an official position and I am not talented. He won the imperial examination last year. He plans to continue his career this year. He is not yet married. I don't know where the girl lives and how old she is. Is there a marriage?"
Wei Wei watched the Qingshang girl get out of the car and leave without looking back. He hurriedly stepped forward and said that he felt that he could not let the opportunity go.
Lingchu looked up and down, then suddenly his face became solemn, he bowed his hands and said seriously, "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!"
After saying that, he left happily.
The young master in brocade, Wei Wei, was left with a dumbfounded look on his face.
Tao... Taoist nun? !
