After all, it is a prosperous place in the provincial capital. The Pearl River Estuary is full of boats and sails, and the cruise ships are like grains of sand and fallen leaves in front of some giant ships.
Dongfang Ying, Gan Taoxian, Shi Dajiang and others had never seen so many ships and green river scenery. They were naturally very surprised and looked around on the deck to enjoy it.
Nangong Huiyue, Master Xu, Captain Xu and others were used to it, but Nangong Huiyue saw Dongfang Ying in high spirits, so she also accompanied her on the bow of the boat, chatting and laughing.
Leisurely Youzai traveled slowly upstream along the river, and after half a day's sailing, crossed the Lion Ocean, passed Ersha Island, and stopped at Tianzi Pier.
Leaving three boatmen to guard the cruise ship, Captain Xu took the other three boatmen to the city to buy food and other supplies.
Dongfang Ying originally wanted to keep Nangong Huiyue’s master and servant on the boat, but Nangong Huiyue didn’t want to be separated from her. Secondly, seeing everyone wanted to go ashore, they were left alone and felt worried. Uneasy,
So he begged Dongfang Ying to let them follow him to the city.
Dongfang Ying and she were in the thick of their love, so he couldn't bear her soft words, so he had no choice but to agree.
With a group of twelve people, Lu Qiuying and the three sisters went to hire a carriage to return to their previous address. Dongfang Ying also gave them an ingot of gold and ten taels of gold to spend when needed, and agreed that they must go back to their previous address at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. return.
The four Shi Dajiang brothers took the remaining silver and went to the city to have a good time. They also agreed with them that they must return to the ship before midnight tomorrow morning.
Dongfang Ying took Nangong Huiyue and Gan Taoxian, and after asking the merchants, they first went to Guangtong Bank, a well-known bank in the provincial capital, to appraise and store a pile of gold ingots and jewelry, and then discounted them. Replace them with banknotes and money checks.
The originally heavy gold beads were finally replaced by three thousand taels of silver notes and more than five thousand yuan of copper dollar notes.
Of course, the valuation and exchange of these banknotes also include a 10% commission fee.
But Dongfang Ying didn't care anymore. Anyway, these properties were obtained from bandits and were windfalls. As long as they were easy to use now, a stack of notes weighed less than two taels.
Then everyone hired two carriages and told them to go to Baozhilin.
They have now changed into new clothes. Dongfang Ying is wearing a purple double-breasted narrow-sleeved short coat, a black gold-rolled cape, and a crimson horse-faced skirt. She looks heroic and full of chivalrous spirit.
Nangong Huiyue changed into an apricot yellow stand-up collar and slant-breasted cloak, paired with a blue-green butterfly and peony pattern skirt, exuding the ladylike temperament as always.
Gan Taoxian chose a set of rose-red Begonia Feihua women's gown, which matched the hundred-pleated phoenix tail skirt underneath, making her look naturally charming and swaying.
She felt bad when she saw Dongfang Ying riding in the same car with Nangong Huiyue. Sitting in a car with Xiaoyun Xiaoxia, she kept kicking the walls of the carriage with her feet, secretly thinking.Stifling.
Xiaoyun Xiaoxia ignored her and opened the car curtains on her own, looking at the pedestrians and shops on the street with interest.
Dongfang Ying and Nangong Huiyue were hugging each other and sitting in the carriage, chatting with each other and talking about love, which was very comfortable.
It didn’t take long for the car to arrive at Baozhilin Medical Center on Yan’an Street. The five girls got off the carriage. Dongfang Ying asked the coachman to wait on the other side of the street. They came out soon and continued to ride their carriage. .
The two coachmen agreed, and the girls entered the hotel. Dongfang Ying called the waiter directly, saying that she wanted to see the owner of the hotel, Huang Feihong, and please introduce him to her.
The waiter saw the extraordinary appearance of the women and did not dare to neglect them. He immediately invited them into the backyard to serve tea and then said to report and ask all distinguished guests to wait a moment.
Before the time for tea, a strong-looking young man came in, claiming to be Liang Kuan, the eldest disciple of Master Huang. He had the authority to assist his master in managing the affairs of the hospital. I don’t know how many female heroes came to him. What's important, Master?
Dongfang Ying did not hide it, and said that she was entrusted by an old Mr. Huang Feilu and brought a letter to the owner of Huang Feilu.
Liang Kuan clasped his fists and said:
"Thank you so much for traveling thousands of miles to deliver the letter. I feel so righteous. I don't know how to call it?"
Dongfang Ying thought to herself. Since he was still wanted by the government and would implicate others, it was better not to reveal his name, so he called himself Gong Yue.
Liang Kuan saw that she was young and not well-known, so he said:
"It turns out to be Miss Gong. Unfortunately, my teacher was away from home for business half a year ago, and she still hasn't seen her yet." Return to Baozhilin.
"If Miss Gong believes me, you can give me the letter and I will deliver it to my tutor. "
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Ying had no choice but to do so, so she took out the letter written by Huang Feilu and handed it to Liang Kuan.
Then she bluntly said that she had other important matters and could not stay for a long time. He took Nangong Huiyue and the four girls away from Baozhilin.
It was already dark, and the streets and alleys were dimly lit.
Gan Taoxian followed Dongfang Ying. He pouted his mouth and complained:
"Such a big medical clinic, why don't you give us a meal? It was really thankless to come all the way to deliver letters to them. "
Nangong Huiyue said coldly:
"I didn't invite you to come with us. Why don't you lick your face and follow us? "
Gan Taoxian said displeased:
"You understand, I made an agreement with sister Ying'er three days ago and asked her to take me to buy it in the provincial capital. some gifts.
"Sister Ying'er originally asked you to stay on the ship because you wanted to follow us, okay?"
Nangong Huiyue glared at her angrily:
"Did you call me sister Ying'er? She is mine..."
DongfangSeeing that the two girls were about to quarrel again, Ying felt a headache. She stood in the middle and said softly to Nangong Huiyue:
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
"Yue'er, you wrongly blamed Sister Gan. It was indeed me who promised her to take her around the provincial capital and buy some gifts to honor her parents.
"Just right. By the way, let’s see what you like and buy it together, okay? "
Nangong Huiyue saw that there were many people on the street, and it was really unsightly to be jealous of another woman. What's more, Dongfang Ying was trying to please her like this, so she had to give her face,
< p> He turned his anger into joy, took Dongfang Ying's arm, nodded and said:"Okay, let's buy some nice clothes first, Ying'er is the best to me. "
Seeing her triumphant look, Gan Taoxian was so angry that she stamped her feet repeatedly, thinking in her mind how to defeat this stinky woman's arrogance.
At this moment, a sudden The officers and soldiers of the team came galloping on horseback, and pedestrians on the street gave way.
Dongfang Ying and Nangong Huiyue had already stepped into the carriage, Xiaoyun Xiaoxia also got into another carriage, and Gan Taoxian fell behind. , suddenly saw the cavalry rushing towards them, they seemed to be frightened and did not know how to get out of the way,
"Oh my God, help..."
Gan Taoxian screamed, and then her knees weakened, He fell in the middle of the street.
The team of officers and soldiers hurriedly reined in their horses and avoided Gan Taoxian. The person stood up and stepped on Gan Taoxian with two iron hooves.
When the passers-by saw this, they couldn't help but scream, it was a pity that such a delicate beauty would be trampled to pieces in the blink of an eye. .
Just as Gan Taoxian and the passers-by were stunned, a black figure flew over like lightning and kicked the big horse's neck.
There was a loud "bang", followed by the pitiful whine of the horse. The big horse weighing five to six hundred kilograms was kicked backwards and fell straight out, knocking down a large area including the man and the horse.
Dongfang Ying flew forward from the carriage in time, kicked Qing Bing and his mount away, spun twice like a top, fell to the ground, stretched out her hand to help Gan Taoxian, and asked with concern:
"Sister Gan, are you okay? Are you injured? "
The passers-by and the officers and soldiers who came to their senses were all shocked when they saw that it was a young and beautiful girl who kicked a galloping horse of several hundred kilograms.
< p> Passers-by stopped and sighed, pointing and pointing.At this time, the two riders who were bypassing the front turned their horses, and one of the officers wearing a leopard patch shouted:
"Who are you? Why stop the officers and soldiers? This is an important place in the provincial capital. Are you desperate? ”
Dongfang Ying patted Gan Taoxian on the back without raising her head., comforted:
"Don't be afraid, go back to the car and rest first, I will deal with these officers and soldiers."
Gan Taoxian calmed down from the shock, and nestled in her arms, trembling. The voice said:
"...Sister, I'm fine...Thank you for saving me...You, can you hold me in the car...I can't walk..."
< p> Before Dongfang Ying could answer, Nangong Huiyue stood in front of the carriage, her teeth already chewed to pieces, secretly cursing this coquettish fox for being pretentious and daring to approach her "husband" blatantly, how shameless!She couldn't help but said loudly:
"She is acting exactly like she pretended to be drunk last time. Don't be fooled by her!"
Dongfang Ying was stunned. At this time, the Qing army general also became angry. He raised his riding crop and flicked it twice, and shouted again:
"You crazy bitches! If you don't answer me again, The general asked, and took them all back to the barracks for detailed interrogation."
Xiaoyun and Xiaoxia had never seen this battle before, and they hurriedly shouted to Nangong Huiyue:
"Ms. , please advise... Sister Dongfang, please reply to Mr. Xiang... This is a provincial capital!"
Nangong Huiyue was shocked, and immediately thought that this place was very different from the remote state capital, not only There are so many high-ranking officials, and so many garrison soldiers and generals. If you accidentally offend any party, you will suffer a lot.
He hurriedly got out of the carriage, bowed to the general Yingying and said:
"General, please forgive me. The little girl and her sisters arrived in the provincial capital for the first time, and they were panicked and timid. I bumped into all the military officers unintentionally, and I would like to express my deepest apologies to all the military officers.
"I immediately took my girl out of the way, I'm sorry. "
As she spoke, she stepped forward and took Dongfang Ying's arm, whispering:
"Why don't you leave quickly? She's just pretending, don't worry about her. "
Dongfang Ying's heart moved. She looked at Gan Taoxian's pretty face and saw that her face was pale. She didn't look like she was pretending. However, she didn't dare not listen to Yue'er's words, so she asked:
"Sister Gan, are you really unable to walk? Let me see where it is injured. "
Gan Taoxian said with a bitter face:
"I'm not lying to you, I have sprained my ankle, it hurts..."
At this time, the general He shook his head and said:
"Miss, I think your sisters don't want to give way. You can't afford to suffer from delaying our military affairs.
"Come here, capture these women and deal with them later."
