Chapter 545 Reach 2
Fortunately, she was traveling during the day. When she was alone in the carriage, she often put the baby in the space to rest. Otherwise, the three treasures and four treasures would suffer a lot.
The two children only lost a little weight along the way, and they didn't get sick or anything. It's luck.
Thinking about this journey, Mrs. Zhou nodded with emotion: "Everyone has suffered because of this journey."
The children in the other carriage also lost a lot of weight, not to mention the people driving the carriage and the guards on horseback, they were all dark and thin.
"When Pengcheng settles down, I will make up for everyone, and make up for all the fat lost along the way." Yang Lan'er laughed.
"That's right." The corners of Zhou's mouth curled up slightly, feeling a little more relaxed.
When the group arrived in Pengcheng, it was almost the end of mid-June.
Along the way, Xiao Jiu sometimes drove the carriage by herself, sometimes handed over the carriage to the guards, and rode the horse by herself. With a tanned but handsome face, she rushed to the side of Yang Lan'er's carriage, and shouted excitedly: " Ma'am, we have arrived in Pengcheng."
Yang Lan'er heard the words, handed the baby to Xiao Ruo to hold her well, opened the curtain of the car and looked ahead, the gray and simple city wall lay like a giant beast between the two mountains.
Xiao Jiu knew that his wife had come here for the first time and didn’t know much about this place, so she explained patiently: “Pengcheng has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.”
Pointing to the high mountains on both sides, he said with a smile: "Ma'am, look at the high mountains on both sides. The terrain here is dangerous, and there is a vast plain outside the pass, which goes directly to the outside of the pass. Going in is the way behind us. It is also a flat river. From outside the pass The shortcut to the pass can only be entered from Pengcheng, so the important town of Pengcheng is well-deserved that one man should be the gate, and ten thousand men should not open it."
Yang Laner nodded: "Well, from the city wall, it can be seen that this important town should be very big."
"Of course, Pengcheng is called a town, but because it is a traffic fortress, its area is almost the same as that of other county towns." Xiao Jiu had been staying at the border before, and now looking at Pengcheng, which is so close at hand, she felt in her heart The excitement can be imagined.
At this moment, even the breathing feels smooth and sweet, and the hot wind blowing on the face feels very kind.
Yang Lan'er looked at Xiao Jiu who was obviously active at this time, and smiled: "When I enter the city, I will find an inn to live in first. Tomorrow, you can go and see if the house bought by Steward Wang has been furnished? It's not packed yet. So I called Mrs. Wang and the others to clean it up together."
Before reaching Pengcheng, she asked Steward Wang to bring a few people into Pengcheng first to buy a house, and now I don't know if they have arranged it or not.
The carriage entered the city gate, and Duan Yan led the team to the largest inn in the city. The golden sun slanting towards the west shone on the team, and the shadows stretched long, making people and horses restless.
Three Treasures and Four Treasures lay on the couch with mats, Yang Lan'er helped them fan the wind from time to time, and complained: "It's too hot today, the carriage is stuffy and hot, I feel my face is sticky, and my clothes are soaked through." gone."
This journey was really uncomfortable. I made ice with saltpeter and put it on the carriage, but I didn’t dare to put too much because I had a baby.
Mrs. Zhou took a sip of herbal tea, and stayed in the sister-in-law's carriage for the past few days. It was slightly cooler because of the ice basin, but it was still stuffy.
"When I live in my own house, I will sleep for three days and three nights. The journey is too hard."
Other things are in the back, and everything will be discussed after she gets enough sleep.
Stayed in the inn for one night, and the next day Yang Lan'er took everyone together and moved into the house she bought. She told everyone not to rush about other things except daily eating and drinking, and rested for three days.
