180. Road encounter

Madam Yang and Rong Qiaoyan, who had gotten on the carriage, looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the group hurried to the rented farm.

Fortunately, the village was also outside the capital, and it was not too far from Cixin Temple.

Therefore, Zhou Lei quickly drove the carriage, and soon it was less than five miles away.

However, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Rong Qiaoyan leaned back and almost fell down. Madam Yang hurriedly protected her with her body.

"Shitou, why did you stop suddenly? You almost fell to the lady." Madam Yang asked with a ugly face through the curtain of the car.

If she hadn't protected Rong Qiaoyan with her body, Rong Qiaoyan's head would have hit the wall of the car box.

It is not the first time that Shi Tou has driven a carriage, so why did such a low-level mistake occur?

Even if it was his own son, Madam Yang couldn't help but blame him.

"Miss, mother, two people suddenly appeared and rushed in front of the carriage."

Zhou Lei grabbed the horse and explained with an ugly expression while jumping out of the carriage.

Just now, two people suddenly emerged from the woods beside the road and rushed directly to the front of the carriage.

Fortunately, he pulled the reins quickly, otherwise he would have just pressed them.

The key point is that the moving person actually moved his body to the front of the wheel, then used his arms to pass through the gap between the wheels, and hugged the wheel of the carriage.

At this moment, the carriage could not move in or backward.

The pedestrians who had passed by in groups of three or three on the road suddenly surrounded them when they saw this.

"Oh, are you pressing down on me?" asked the person with unknown circumstances.

"No, I see they suddenly appear. This is a quarrel, right?" The sharp-eyed discerning person said sympathetically.

"No matter whether it is suppressed or not, I guess I don't have a few taels of silver, so I'm afraid I can't be good..." said the person who watched the fun.

"That's right, that's right..." More people agreed.

Although this is not the official road leading to the capital, it is also a road leading to the capital, county and various towns, so there are naturally those pedestrians rushing on the road.

Zhou Lei listened to the discussions of the people around him, and even his disguised face became darker and darker.

This matter is not handled well, and one is to delay time, and the other is to easily expose the lady in the carriage.

"Please... please... save us. I... willing to... make a fuss and get a fuss... repay you... mercy."

The man looked at Zhou Lei for a while before begging intermittently. The voice was full of hoarseness and weakness.

The man's voice just fell, and most of the people watching the fun suddenly dispersed.

Well, this person is not a cheater, but a call for help?

Looking at his clothes and dressing, he must be a refugee. It’s not fun to watch it anymore.

So, except for the person who was free and staring at him from afar, the others left directly.

When Zhou Lei heard his words and looked at him, he felt relieved after knowing that it was not a cheating person.

"Who are you?" Although Zhou Lei felt relieved, he still asked vigilantly.

"We are... Jinzhou... people, flee...... and have escaped here. Please help..."

The man probably saw someone paying attention to him, and although he was weak, he still insisted on speaking.

I was afraid that this person would not save them if he was one step too late.

They sat in the woods for a while and saw some pedestrians.

But when those people saw them, they quickly walked around.

It was finally difficult to get a carriage. If you have a carriage, you will naturally have money and you will definitely be able to save them.

Therefore, he rushed out with his sister.

Of course, Zhou Lei knew about the flood in Jinzhou Prefecture, and it was not impossible for someone to escape.

But he still approached the two people cautiously and looked at their pulse.

Both of them have weak pulses. This person can still speak, and the one who looks shorter is in a state of drowsiness.

It seems that there should be no threat.

After Zhou Lei finished the inspection, he reported to Rong Qiaoyan through the curtain with confidence.

Originally, Rong Qiaoyan was worried that these two people were bad people. When she heard the other party say they were from Jinzhou, she realized that they were refugees.

Mu Yunzheng also said that this is a major flood that is rare in fifty years.

Even if we work hard, refugees are inevitable.

Now, Rong Qiaoyan listened through the curtain and heard Zhou Lei say that there were people outside staring at them how they handled it.

In addition, this man held the wheel and refused to let go...

Rong Qiaoyan pondered for a while, then signaled Madam Yang to bring the hat with her, and then asked Zhou Lei to help the person into the car first.

Zhou Lei frowned and helped the two men into the carriage.

"Please help my son, girl."

After the man watched his companion get into the car, he pulled Zhou Lei into the carriage tightly.

When he saw the young woman wearing a veiled hat, he knew that she was the owner of the coachman, so he knelt down and begged.

Rong Qiaoyan looked at the two people's dark and dirty looks, and it was indeed extremely pitiful.

"Please help my sister. I will definitely hold a weed and tie a ring to repay the girl's kindness."

This older man looked at Rong Qiaoyan, who couldn't see her face clearly through the hat but didn't say a word, and continued to beg.

"Is this your sister?" Rong Qiaoyan pointed at the person who was sleeping in surprise when she heard the word "sister".

"yes."

Rong Qiaoyan was a little relieved about the woman.

She gently wiped the girl's face with a veil, revealing a pretty face.

but......

Rong Qiaoyan felt the temperature at her fingertips and frowned.

She gently placed her hand on the girl's forehead, and it was indeed hot and hot.

Rong Qiaoyan asked Mama Yang to try the boy's forehead, and it was indeed the same hot.

"Do you have fever?" Rong Qiaoyan asked with a frown.

"Yes. On the road, I'm hungry and tired, and sick... I've been sick for a few days. I've only arrived in the capital. It's not an epidemic. I'm asking the girl to help me. It's okay to just save my sister." The man quickly explained, and after he finished explaining, he begged.

After a major disaster, there will inevitably be a major epidemic.

Coming from the disaster area of ​​Jinzhou Prefecture, everyone will naturally worry that there is an epidemic.

So, he had to explain it quickly, otherwise he would definitely be thrown off the carriage.

Sure enough, the people in the carriage heard his words, and even through the veil, they could see their relaxed bodies.

The man looked at Rong Qiaoyan and Madam Yang's makeup quietly.

Although the material on their clothes is not silk, it is also satin.

Even if she is not a lady from a big family, she is also a girl from a rich family.

She looked compassionate and might not be a bad person, right? She should be relieved to entrust her sister to her.

But what if I am worried? If I don’t ask for help from this girl, I and my sister are afraid that my life will be gone...

"If the girl is inconvenient to save me, just save my sister. You can accept her as a maid. She is very strong and can do any job."

Thinking of ordinary women, I am afraid they are unwilling to save the uninhibited man. Therefore, this man used all his strength and quickly said it.

Rong Qiaoyan lowered her head, thought for a while, and said to Zhou Lei: "Let's go first. Don't waste your time."

Zhou Lei was surprised that after that, he obediently rushed to the village.

After hearing Rong Qiaoyan's words, Madam Yang looked at the two dirty people with a silly feeling reluctant to speak.

Then, I couldn't help but pull Rong Qiaoyan's sleeve.

How can you bring outsiders of unknown origin to that secret place?
