Chapter 29 Strange Porter

It's a sunny day today, with a cloudless blue sky.

Xinyi drove the donkey cart into the city along the official road along the Bian River. The road was busy with traffic and pedestrians, including loaders, cart drivers and delivery people, meandering all the way along the Bian River. When entering the city, it was even more...

It was lively, with people shouting, setting up stalls, farmers, merchants, sellers and porters coming and going in an endless stream.

Fast pace is called living, slow pace is called life.

Xin Yi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Before time travel, although she was not as hard as 996,007, her pace of life was also extremely fast.

Like most people, she grew up step by step through kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, university, and then started working, and she never dared to relax.

The only difference is that she was born into a family of Chinese medicine practitioners, and her parents gave her stricter discipline. She has been urged to study and study as long as she can remember. She rarely has the opportunity to stop and feel this "slow-paced" life.

All this is fresh, interesting and natural.

It's like she was supposed to belong here.

very good.

Xin Yi's eyes lit up.

As soon as she entered the city, she started planning what she wanted to buy.

In addition to daily necessities for the three little ones, the whole family needs to buy food, clothing, and other related medical supplies. With the tools, she can prepare medicinal materials, treat her face, and make some skin care ointments.

When you have a good reputation and have saved enough money, you can expand your business, open a medical clinic or a cosmetic clinic, and open it all the way to Bianjing...

Xinyi is very happy, and so are the three children.

Because Xin Yi was too lazy to make breakfast, he took the three little ones to eat at the famous Jintailou in Bianjing City. Stone tripe soup, fine roasted dried seeds, Hu cakes... pasta and snacks were placed on a full table.

“Do wealthy people eat so much every meal?”

Er Nian ate the delicious food and wanted to swallow it with his tongue.

Sannian smiled and said, "Mom, will our family eat like this in the future?"

His thoughts became much older and he stared at Xin Yi in confusion.

"Do you have money?"

Xin Yi knew what he was worried about, so he pushed the small steamer in front of him and put a soup dumpling in his bowl.

"Eat yours."

"Where did you get the money?" Yi Nian asked again.

What a worried little person.

Xin Yi smiled sideways: "If I don't have money to pay the bill, I'll mortgage you."

Yi Nian frowned, looked at Xin Yi seriously for a moment, lowered his eyes, and ate seriously without asking any more questions.

Xin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom!" The mistress thought and smiled happily. When she saw her two brothers stopped talking, she leaned on Xin Yi's arm like a caring little cotton-padded jacket. Her little mouth was as sweet as honey.

"You are so beautiful."

Xin Yi raised the corners of his mouth and wiped her mouth.

"Aren't you feeling guilty for lying like that?"

Sannian laughed like a little mouse who had stolen oil.

"Mom, look at the street..."

Xin Yi followed what San Nian expected and went out.

Walking down the street wearing armor and holding swords were the troops of the Infantry Division of the Forbidden Army. The soldiers walked neatly and orderly, and pedestrians gave way.

The man who was riding in the front was none other than Cao Yi, the deputy commander of the palace.

The last time Cao Yi went to Zhang's house to burn incense, he was dressed as a scholar in a honey-stone shirt. He looked gentle and elegant. Now he is wearing a red tassel helmet and shiny iron armor, which adds a bit of heroism, but he doesn't look like a rough military commander anymore.

Like a scholar who has read poetry and books.

Xin Yi noticed that San Nian was tensing up, and quickly turned around and hugged her, "Don't be afraid, those are the soldiers of the imperial court who protect the people."

Sannian glanced at her secretly, "He is a great hero like daddy, right?"

Xin Yi was slightly startled.

It's not that these children don't know what these soldiers do, they just miss their father when they see them.

Xin Yi had no feelings for Zhang Xun and no recognition of the relationship between husband and wife, but she didn't want to hurt her child's heart, so she smiled and touched San Nian's head.

"Yes, just like your father."

Er Nian whispered, "No way! My father is much more powerful than them..."

The male protagonist Zhang Xun is undoubtedly majestic and handsome, otherwise he would not have won so many beauties in the original plot.

It's a pity - no one is alive.

Xin Yi smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that the children had eaten well, I waved the waiter over to pay the bill.

"Here you come, guest." The waiter, with a sweat towel on his shoulders, looked at the imperial troops passing by the entrance of Jintai Tower and muttered to himself.

"Strange! There are more Imperial Guards on the streets these days than on New Year's Day. I don't know what big thing happened... Is there going to be a war?"

Xin Yi lowered his head to count the money and did not answer.

Since the Song-Xia War in the Kangding period, there has been no war in the Song Dynasty for more than ten years. Bianjing is prosperous and the people's livelihood is stable and prosperous. The people in Bianjing have probably forgotten that there was a war...

But Xin Yi remembered that in two years, Nong Zhigao from the south would conquer Yongzhou and establish the "Great Southern Kingdom", and the battle of Kunlun Pass was imminent...

By then, the price of medicinal materials will probably rise.

Can her small medical clinic still be opened?

Xin Yi thought endlessly, left the Jintai Building, carried the three little ones one by one into the donkey cart, followed the example of the gourd, asked them to sit in a row, held hands, managed each other, and then led the donkey to

Go forward.

Learning from the lesson she learned last time, she did not dare to sit on the carriage shaft on the street. Instead, she held on to the donkey's reins and walked slowly like a snail through the crowded streets.

The Forbidden Army in front has passed the Yunqi Bridge, and only a tail can be seen. The three children craned their necks eagerly, looking at the armor of the sergeants, silently, but their eyes were a little moist, especially San Nian, who pursed his lips.

, almost crying.

Xin Yi couldn't bear to look and glanced at the roadside.

Several porters sitting on poles were doing the work.

"Little lady, do you want a porter?"

"Ten miles, five big coins."

Water transportation is inconvenient during the dry season. In the huge logistics system of Bianjing City, porters are the lowest transportation profession, but they account for a very important part. But they clearly saw that she had a donkey cart and they came to ask her, so they were so indifferent?

Xin Yi narrowed his eyes, smiled and patted the donkey's head.

"No thanks."

She is in a good mood today and is friendly to everyone.

The sturdy porter didn't understand. He spat out the weeds in his mouth, patted his butt and stood up.

"Why don't you use it? Don't you have three children with you? How can you get goods when there are people in the car?"

"Isn't that right? Little lady, please use it. We, Brother Luo, are tall and powerful. We are very easy to use. Please keep it if you want to use it..." A round-faced man started to cheer and said with a smile, coming over to stop her.

donkey.

Xin Yi's face changed slightly.

But he saw another porter also stood up and came around. He accidentally kicked the bamboo basket at his feet, and there was a sound like metal colliding——

Is there a knife in the basket?

Xin Yi and his three children did not dare to confront the bad guys head-on.

"Cao Duzhi, Mr. Cao - wait for me." Xin Yi suddenly thought out and shouted in the direction of the imperial army. He grabbed the round-faced man's arm in front of him and pushed him hard.

"I'm sorry, brother, I have something urgent to do with Mr. Cao. I'll hire you next time."

The round-faced strong man was caught off guard and was pushed over by Xin Yi, hitting his companion hard and staggering backwards.

The two ouched and cursed at the same time.

By chance, a Forbidden Army officer who looked like a school captain passed by on horseback and looked over after hearing the sound.

The three porters paused, and Xin Yi quickly got on the donkey cart.
