Chapter 116: I don’t want to get married in the first place

"Hush!"

Liu Laozhu held the car board tightly with one hand and covered Zhang Fei's hair with the other. Xu Tianxin's "scream" was like a sound from heaven.

Liu Laozhu's legs felt a little weak when he got out of the car. He felt that he was risking his life to accompany his baby to grow.

It was not so difficult for him to teach his son Liu Jingdong how to drive a car.

At this time, all the people in Erdaohe Village got out of the car.

Liu Laozhu signaled everyone to stay here tonight. The fastest way from Fucheng is one night plus half a day's journey. Further on, there is an inn that is more expensive than his elder brother's accommodation. It is already dark, and there are thunder and lightning flashes outside. , afraid of heavy rain tonight.

This temporary accommodation consists of four stone rooms. In each room, the Kang and the floor are filled with travelers from all over the city and counties.

There was also a large shed set up outside. There were several large pots of hot water boiling in the shed, white mist was blowing in the wind, and some simple food for filling the stomach.

The store owner was very enthusiastic. When he saw the Erdaohe Village group, he greeted them:

"Come on, brother, there is room to sleep inside. You guys can fit in there. It's twenty coins per person on the kang and ten coins on the floor."

Then he shouted: "Sell corn for ten cents per stick, eighteen cents for two sticks, thirty coppers for four sticks. If you want to buy thirty cents, I will give you another stick."

The young men in Erdaohe tied up the livestock cart and passed by a large shed selling food. They looked at the rotten corn and swallowed and turned their heads to pretend not to hear.

Why is corn so expensive? If you dare to ask for such a price in the countryside, you will be beaten to death. Let’s catch up with the price of white bread.

In fact, they are not hungry for corn, but they are hungry for the steaming aroma.

Driving all the way and being filled with cold wind on a cloudy day, drinking hot water, eating hot food and sleeping on a hot bed have become the things that the boys look forward to most.

I really don’t know what it will be like to drive in the smoky wind and snow in winter. If there is a snowstorm and the road is closed, I might freeze to death. No wonder Uncle Li Zheng said that even if you borrow money, you have to buy back all the goods at once.

This time, Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin entered the house first, holding bullwhips in hand. They saw that the accommodation conditions were in trouble.

There were all men on the floor inside and outside, and even the people cooking and selling corn in the shed were eight strong men.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and the men who were picking their toes and covering them with mud and chatting on the kang also frowned and looked at them.

They welcome eldest girls and young wives to stay in the same stone house with them at night. Even if they can't be near each other at night and can't take advantage of their eyes, they can still enjoy themselves by talking a little bit.

But that doesn't mean they welcome an old lady and a dry little girl, it will only make them feel inconvenient.

After all, the people who sleep here are basically ordinary people and poor people who are going to the capital to sell goods. How can I sleep without taking off my clothes after finally spending twenty coins to sleep on a hot bed? Some people were wearing all patches underneath, and some were even wearing nothing underneath. They were all men, and they had no worries about stripping off and were very relaxed. It's good to have two more girls. The serious man who was on the road quit and asked the store owner to adjust the room because he didn't want the old lady to see him.

This shows how difficult it is for ordinary women here to travel far away.

Rich women will go to the expensive inn and ask for a private room. Women without money will not dare to go so far if they are struggling to make a living.

Liu Laozhu was troubled when he heard the shouting in the house. He had never taken a girl on a long trip before, so he had not paid attention to the inconveniences. He gritted his teeth and was about to ask the shopkeeper: "How much does it cost to rent one of the stone houses?"

The store owner was experienced and spoke first.

Although we don't see many female visitors all year round, over the years, there are still some ordinary women who come to the city for various reasons such as medical treatment. They give their advice: "You know there is a forest further on? That forest?" There is a small road in there, and there is a nunnery up the mountain along that mountain road. Go there and stay overnight."

…

Liu Laozhu left the others here, and he took Xu Youcang to drive Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin to the nunnery.

Xu Tianxin found that the family members in the live broadcast room suddenly became excited.

Everyone is swiping the screen:

"The nunnery is a nice place."

"That's the point of rebirth, the place where the phoenix rises to nirvana."

"Zhen Huan went to be the Queen Mother, Yang Yuhuan was to be the imperial concubine, and Wu Zetian was so awesome that she was to be the emperor."

Xu Tianxin put a green leaf on his head to cover the rain and said: I'm afraid the script I got is that I went once and never came back...
