80, [two dudes]
The sedan chairmen did not speak, but just quietly accelerated their pace.
As their physical energy consumption accelerates, sweat on their foreheads becomes more dense, which is very conspicuous in the sun. This is obviously different from those on the official road in early summer.
Fortunately, the sedan chairmen are relatively thin and not badly dressed - the people in the sedan chair will not give them time to stop and take off their coats.
The sedan continued to tremble up and down, and there were several Tong Pu running next to him, all of whom were panting and red.
The mountain wind swept by, rolling up the corner of the green door curtain, revealing the person inside. A young man with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek, a white face, an embroidered jacket, a fan and a jade-wearing boy, was sitting on a stool in the sedan chair, full of anxiety, and shouting:
"Quick! Hurry! Hurry again..."
At this moment, the leader of the sedan chair husband in front finally couldn't help but carry the sedan chair pole and turned around and said:
"Young Master Song, we are not a big deal. If you really have to be fast, you will fall down one or two of them in the middle of the journey. Then you will be mistaken. You can stand even slower than slower. And according to the rules, if someone is injured, you will have to pay for the medicine."
The passenger surnamed Song was blocked by the words urging him, neither above nor below.
He was determined to have an attack, but he was really worried that the sedan chair owners would quit and throw themselves here. There was no place to go in front of the village or behind the shop. Although there were people coming and going on the official roads around him, it was a bit scary after all.
Seeing that the man in the sedan chair was blocked, the sedan chairman who had just spoken did not continue to pursue him, but shut up and silently carried the sedan chair.
Carrying a sedan chair is his job and a support for his family. He still has to pay attention to being kind and making money. If it weren't for the urging of Mr. Song in the sedan chair, he wouldn't have said anything.
Then, why was really afraid of missing the trip, the people inside didn't dare to urge the sedan chair carrier again, but began to curse the child servant hatefully:
"There are also Song An and Song Quan and you guys! After learning the news, they were not strict and actually asked the cicada surnamed Lu to go! I'm so angry!"
"After I go back, I will find someone who missed the news and hit him hard! If I can't find it, hum! You can't escape by yourself, and you will all be punished!"
“…”
The servant next to him rushed up to apologize, coax and comfort him.
Then, Mr. Song began to curse his coachman again. In his opinion, if the car had not been broken, how could he choose this sedan? How could he walk so slowly? It was all the blame for the old coachman.
The man in the sedan chair is named Song Hongye. He is a little young and is probably a child of an official family.
However, he only had distant relatives who were officials outside, and Song Hongye's family had very many talents and was considered a wealthy person, but his average family tutoring made him develop an arrogant and lawless personality at a young age.
However, in recent years, in the process of fighting with Lu Yangcheng, a peer from the Lu family in the same city, he has fallen in love with the matter of seeking immortals and comparing it on this.
The two families could not control it, so they had to send slaves to escort them and let them wander around several prefectures next to them.
"Stop! I'm hungry!"
"Young Master, there are two miles ahead. Are you going to rest after you get off the official road?" Hearing the man in the sedan chair suddenly shouted loudly, the sedan chairman in front turned around and asked in the curtain.
"Stop now!"
Hearing this, the sedan chairmen shouted horns, lowered their bodies along the side of the official road, and lowered their sedan chairs.
A person carrying a food box immediately came forward, and someone pulled out a thick oil cloth from behind, skillfully spread it on the ground, and put a soft cushion on it.
“What’s there today?”
Song Hongye stepped out of the sedan door, sat on the mat, and asked the people next to him.
The servant quickly opened the lid of the food box, saw someone else presenting chopsticks and wet cloth, and introduced:
"Shaoguanren, this is your favorite roast goose, ginger fermented ginger and snowflake cake. You are not afraid of cooling down. Next to it is your favorite sweet wine. Rose dew has been added. Please use it."
“It’s okay.”
Song Hongye said heavily, wiped his hands while serving the people next to him, and then pulled off his legs from the roast goose in the food box, grabbed it in his hand and chewed it.
The sedan chairmen next to them also took the opportunity to rest, took out a towel to wipe the sweat, and took out dry food from their arms to repair it.
Along the way, the dry food was covered with warm body temperature, and pickled slices were filled with pickles. They just took up their energy and salt. The leader even took off the water bags around their waists, passed them over to each other, and took a few sips.
Among the servants next to them, some people brought dry food and water, took out a stack of sesame cakes and distributed them, and gave them one to each of the sedan chairmen, so that they could relieve their resentment.
After drinking and eating, Song Hongye immediately began to urge him, and the group set off again.
As they were about to get off the official road and enter the path next to them, a carriage drove towards them quickly, with two horses standing side by side, pedaling.
The person who knew him immediately shouted into the sedan chair:
"Young official, it's Mr. Lu and the others!"
"What?!"
The curtain of the sedan chair was suddenly lifted open, and Song Hongye stuck his head out and looked at the opposite side. He happened to see the curtain of the carriage opposite was also lifted, a face that made his teeth itchy was looking here.
"Stop!"
Song Hongye shouted, and the sedan chairmen stopped and stood at the entrance of the path. Seeing that the carriage opposite was blocked, the carriage gently pulled the reins and whistled, letting the carriage stop slowly.
The car in front of me is of good quality, with beautiful appearance, carved with patterns and painted.
Seeing this scene made Song Hongye angry. He also had a car like this, but it was still repaired if it broke down. Otherwise, he would be much faster to come here and there would be no need to meet this person.
Only this kind of car can keep bumpy when sitting, which is why he chose a sedan instead of the cars in the carriage. Those cars are really unfriendly to his butt.
The man opposite opened the curtain of the carriage and smiled and said, "Brother Song, long time no see, don't you come?"
Song Hongye could not control his temper at all, but he still maintained his rationality and said fiercely: "The surname of Lu, you actually bribed my people. It's a broken rule! I remember it!"
"Haha!" Lu Yangcheng on the opposite side laughed contemptuously: "You still have to buy these three melons and two dates from you? If you can ask the source of the news, can't I ask? It turns out that he is a foolish young man who is ignorant of the world."
"you!"
"What do you think of me? Can you beat me or scold me? Make the way honestly, Brother Song."
“…”
Lu Yangcheng looked at Song Hongye opposite with a victorious expression. The latter became even more angry, but could not speak. Then he held it in a while and said to the porter and servants next to him in resentment: "Don't let it go! Keep going!"
Lu Yangcheng behind him didn't care, and said to the coachman in front and the people around him:
"Don't hurry, follow him slowly."
A close-fitting servant Park asked, "Young official, don't surpass him?"
"No need." Lu Yangcheng said with a smile: "Song Hongye thought it would be possible to leave quickly? This is not the servants line up to buy sesame cakes. Arriving first does not mean serving first. That immortal fate should be mine!"
"Young officials are smart and will definitely be favored by immortals."
"Hahahaha, that's right." After hearing the complimentary words from his subordinates, Lu Yangcheng said proudly.
