Chapter 645: The Third Wasteland
Wu Yong drank the rice wine directly as a drink, and this small cup had already been drunk by her, and she was trying Mrs. Zhuangtou's new dish at this time.
Mrs. Zhuangtou asked, "How does it taste?" Although the wild vegetables at this time are a little old, they are just right to make cold vegetables and have a chewy texture. ”
Wu Yong nodded: "It's really good, Lord Gong also tastes it." ”
After this glass of wine, Master Gong was not restrained, and tasted it according to Wu Yong's recommendation, these country vegetables are really good, at least they taste very fresh, people like him who can often eat meat, but these wild vegetables are more suitable for his appetite.
This dinner was a good meal, and Master Gong also understood why Wu Yong was willing to mingle with this family, their family had a good personality, and even the children in the family were polite.
After the meal, Zhuang Tou sent Wu Yong and them to their lodging tonight: "Hot water has been prepared for you in the house, burn your feet and go to bed early, we will come to wake you up tomorrow morning." ”
Wu nodded and sent Zhuang Tou away, and asked Master Gong: "You should do it yourself, right? If there is anything you can't do, you can ask it now." "The coachman who sent them over has also been arranged by Zhuang Tou to rest, and at this time, Wu Yong is really not good at taking care of himself directly.
Master Gong: "Don't worry, I'm such an adult, it's definitely no problem to wash myself, you can go in too." ”
Wu Yong saw his sworn appearance, so he didn't say anything more, he still wanted to save some face for him.
Wu Yong went back to his room, cleaned himself up neatly, and lay on the bed for a long time before he fell asleep.
Although Lord Gong next door said very hard in front of Wu Yong, when he really started to do it himself, he was still a little stumbling, but fortunately, Zhuang Tou directly put all the things he needed to use in the light, and he finally sent himself into the quilt and soon snored.
The lights of the entire Zhuangzi were extinguished, and the summer breeze enveloped the world with night.
Early the next morning, the crowing rooster woke them up, which saved the strength of the head of the village and them to come and call people.
When the head of the village came and found that they had all woken up, he brought water to wash them up, and said, "Breakfast has been prepared, you can come and eat after washing." ”
After Wu washed up with them, he went to eat a solid breakfast, and after the meal, the head of the village sent them to the door of the village.
Wu Yong and Master Gong each got on the car and got on the horse, preparing to go to the next location, Zhuangtou prepared dry food for Wu Yong and them to eat on the road, and told them: "This must be eaten today, otherwise it will be broken." ”
Wu nodded and wrote it down, and asked Lord Gong to put it away, the place they were going to this time was a bit far, and it was very likely that they would really have to settle lunch on the way.
They sped up all the way, and when the sun reached the top of their heads, they still couldn't see the place, and Master Gong asked the coachman, "How long do we have to go?"
The driver said helplessly: "It will take at least another hour." ”
Master Gong wiped his sweat and asked Wu Yong, "Are you okay?" She was so hot in the carriage, and she didn't know what Wu Yong's current state was, although she still looked straight.
Wu Yong didn't feel too hot, and the wind was still quite strong when riding a horse: "I'm okay, I'm just a little hungry, let's eat something and then hurry." ”
Master Gong nodded, and let Wu Yong come into the carriage, there is no place to sit nearby, so let's eat in the carriage.
Lord Gong lowered a wooden board from the wall of the carriage, transformed it into a table, and took out the dry food that the Zhuang had prepared for them before.
Wu Yong watched Master Gong open the food box, and found that what was prepared inside was actually shredded chicken noodles preserved with ice cubes, although the ice cubes had melted at this time, but the noodles were still good.
Wu Yong was very surprised by this, he didn't expect Mrs. Zhuangtou to prepare this as dry food.
Master Gong was very moved, and felt that Mrs. Zhuangtou was really good, even if they deliberately found a place to eat lunch, they might not be able to eat such a good thing.
Master Gong took out three sets of utensils from his mezzanine, and called the coachman in, he and Wu Yong couldn't finish such a box of food, so let him come and eat some too.
Wu Yong has no opinion on this, the coachman was brought by Master Gong, and he should be kind to him.
Wu Yong took the lead in picking a whole bowl of noodles for himself, and ate it first as a respect.
Master Gong and the coachman then took matters into their own hands and began to fill their stomachs.
The three of them ate the whole portion of shredded chicken noodles cleanly.
Wu touched his stomach with satisfaction: "Let's move on, it's just going to be a little slower." ”
Lord Gong and the coachman nodded in agreement.
They arrived at their destination a little later than originally planned, and this is also a military camp, but Wu Yong and they have never been here before, Wu Yong and Lord Gong asked the soldiers guarding the door to report, and Lord Gong directly took out the things that the official family gave him as a token before leaving Beijing and let the soldiers bring them over, so as not to let the generals here doubt their identity.
Wu Yong and Master Gong waited outside for a quarter of an hour, and the generals here hurriedly came out with people to greet them: "I don't know if the angel is coming, I am not far away, please come in quickly." ”
They still know this token of Lord Gong, and only those who are very trusted by the official family can get it, which is why they rushed out to greet it in such a hurry.
Master Gong had already put on his appearance in the officialdom at this time, nodded reservedly, and helped Wu Yong introduce: "This is Lord Wu Yong, come with me to inspect this time." ”
The general hurriedly clasped his fists and greeted Wu Yong: "I've seen Lord Wu." ”
Wu Yong hurriedly supported him, he still respected these generals, and he was a person with only a false title, so it was not appropriate to accept this kind of courtesy: "Hurry up, I don't know what to call the general?"
The general briefly introduced himself: "My surname is Wang, my name is Cheng, and the two of you can call them whatever you want." ”
After he finished introducing, he motioned for them to follow him inside, the sun was already a little hot at this time, and he was a little worried that these two adults from the capital would not be able to hold on.
Wu Yong and them did not delay any longer this time, and followed him inside, this place was obviously different from Shi Wengong's military camp that Wu Yong had seen before, it looked a little scattered, but when they walked by, these soldiers would also salute silently, Wu Yong thought that it might be different in the management methods of different generals.
General Wang took Wu Yong and them directly to his military tent, and asked the deputy general to go to the Huotou soldiers to get herbal tea, and he beckoned Wu Yong to sit down and rest quickly.
Lord Gong obviously noticed the difference between this place and the previous two places, so he didn't rush to explain his intentions, and planned to see how they performed first.
Wu Yong also supports this kind of treatment, people here are unfamiliar with the place, and everything needs to be cautious.
