Farmer's Little Girl

Chapter 2238

There was really a tea stand on the road, so they had a hot meal directly at the tea stand at noon. They finished eating and planned to take a rest and set off. They saw two horses coming from the road. The people on the horse dismounted with big luggage. After ordering two cooking cakes and a bowl of soup from the store, they sat on the outer chair to eat.

Several of the heavy rain couldn't help squinting at them. Nie joined the army and manager Li also looked at them.

Bai Shan and man Bao noticed that the atmosphere was different. They also turned around and stared at the two people. After looking at them, Bai Shan frowned, "I seem to have seen them."

Man Bao looked up and down and felt familiar. He was going to ask Keke. The two men got up with cooking cakes and walked towards supervisor Li. She looked over and didn't ask Keke first.

Rich and his companions are like a mountain in his back. He didn't want to find manager Li so early, but he can't help it. Their sight is too pressing. He always feels that if they slow down, they will doubt his identity.

They went up to manager Li and asked for a colleague, saying that they also wanted to go to the western regions, but the journey was far away. There were only two of them, so

Steward Li looked at them up and down and remembered, "are you two of those people who came to me the other day?"

The rich and humble answered "yes" and begged manager Li, "the family is in urgent need of money. This is no way to venture to the western regions at this time. Please talk to the adults and let us follow behind the team. Don't worry, we'll follow far away and never disturb the adults."

In fact, this kind of thing is not uncommon. Some scattered merchants will rely on large caravans for safety, while some are shy in their business bags, they will send a gift to the large caravans, and then follow them from a distance without asking for their protection, as long as they can follow.

But these two people's excuses

Steward Li glanced at their horses, nodded and got up and said, "I'll ask our master."

He came up to Bai Shan and man Bao and whispered, "the day before yesterday, shortly after we arrived in Shazhou, when Xiao went out to replenish rice noodles, a group of people came up and said they wanted to follow our team to the western regions."

He said: "I felt that there were a lot of people in our team, so it was cumbersome to bring people, so I refused. At that time, these two people were among them, but I didn't expect them to find them today. I also said that they were poor at home and needed money urgently..."

He glanced at their horses and whispered, "but it's an excuse. If the family is in urgent need of money, they should sell the horses. What's the use of going to the western regions to make money?"

Manager Li meant to refuse them.

Bai Shan frowned and asked, "where did you see them? How do I think they look so familiar?"

Nie joined the army and immediately said, "young master Bai, I also think they look familiar, but they shouldn't have seen it these two days."

Man Bao asked Koko, "I also think it makes them look familiar. Koko, where have I seen them?"

Koko screened it out and said, "in the Desert Inn."

At the same time, Bai Shan also lowered his voice and said, "I seem to have seen it in the Desert Inn. Yes, that is, in the Desert Inn, those people who clashed with us in the bathhouse. Didn't they wrestle with you outside the inn that evening? I saw him in the crowd. "

Although he didn't seem to make a move, he did.

Nie joined the army and said unbelievably, "isn't it? They came for revenge? So careful? "

The heavy rain at the next table couldn't help it. He came up and asked, "what are you talking about? Can you speak louder? I can't hear you."

Everyone glanced at him and said nothing.

Bai Shan paused and asked, "do you think those two people look familiar?"

The heavy rain said, "I haven't seen them, but I'm familiar with their smell."

"They smell the same as we used to," he said

No explanation, but everyone understood. This is the horse thief!

Man Bao's spirit was shocked, but he couldn't believe it. "Do we look so easy to rob?"

After thinking about it, the heavy rain said, "it's strange. Generally, even if you want to rob, you won't come to the door so early, and take such a big risk to catch up in person. Aren't their people here?"

The rich two are a little anxious. They are far away from Zhou man. They can only see their muttering together, but they can't hear the specific content.

No way, there are many people in their team. These people are surrounded in the middle from the moment they get off the horse. They can't get close at all.

Bai Shan glanced at them and said to manager Li, "promise them to ask them for some money and directly pierce their lies. He said he didn't believe that their family was in urgent need of money, but wanted to follow us to the western regions to make money. In that case, he would show some sincerity."

Li steward was stunned and whispered, "young master, isn't it good for them to follow?"

Bai Shan said, "it's even worse not to let them follow. People have better control under their noses."

Then he looked at Nie joining the army and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry to bother Nie joining the army. Let the scouts look around and see if anyone is following us."

Nie should join the army.

Steward Li went and soon came back with ten liang of silver. He gave it to Bai Shanhou and said, "young master, I asked for five liang of silver with them."

Bai Shan took the silver and saw Bai Erlang looking at it. He gave him one and man Bao the other.

He nodded and said, "give them a place close to our carriage."

That's the middle position, so there are two less people in the back, which won't attract attention at all.

After the convoy set off again, two scouts openly went out to the front to investigate, and two fell behind quietly. They quietly pulled their horses into the forest. When the convoy could not see them, they got on the horse and left, and went back to Yumenguan to investigate.

Although there was unrest outside the Yumen pass, there were still post stations and platforms.

It's just that the post station is very small and can't hold more than 100 of them. Fortunately, it's summer now. It's not very cold at night, just a lot of insects.

Man Bao, they live in the post station, while others are stationed around the post station.

The two men ate and drank separately from them. Man Bao stood upstairs and looked at them. He turned and went to the kitchen. After taking a look at the mutton soup they ordered, he added something to it.

Cook on one side:

Man Bao hissed at him and said, "don't say it outside."

The cook didn't say anything, but told Yi Cheng.

Thinking of their customs clearance documents and official seals, the post Cheng bit his teeth and said, "don't worry, just stay in the kitchen."

Then let another guy take the soup out.

The most common soup here is mutton soup. Soldiers and guards also have two barrels of mutton soup. If they want to drink it, they can fight it by themselves.

Steward Li, who watched Miss man's medicine with his own eyes, went to make a bowl of soup, and then walked up to them and said with a smile: "brother, forgive me, we only take you with us, and you have to come by yourself."
