I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?
Chapter 104 Heavy Rain
Thirty well-trained soldiers took down the tent from the wooden cart and began to set up the tent.
Jiang Huai looked at the sky, frowning more and more, and said to the soldiers who were setting up tents behind him, "Everyone, let's set up a tent first, so that everyone can have a place to hide when the heavy rain comes."
After listening to Jiang Huai's words, they gave up two of the four tents that were originally being set up at the same time, and concentrated their efforts to set up two tents first.
Jiang Yuan also got off the horse and patted the carriage. Chunzhi tried to push open the door from the inside, but she had to use a lot of strength to push it open. The wind outside suddenly rushed into the carriage.
"Girl, come in and hide." Chunzhi said as she was about to pull Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, "No, you three, come down quickly, Chunzhi, where is the oil paper I asked you to prepare?"
"In the carriage at the back." While he was speaking, Chunzhi had already gotten off the carriage and was staggered by the strong wind. Fortunately, Jiang Yuan had been holding her arm.
"Go and get it, and let's seal the windows inside and outside the carriage with butter leather to prevent rain from seeping into the carriage."
Chunzhi and Changying came back with the oil paper. Jiang Yuan was in the carriage and Changying was outside the carriage. They nailed the oil paper to the window with nails.
Qu Ying, Chunzhi and Luzhu went to order the carriages at the back. There were a lot of things on those carriages, and there were also a lot of books on Jiang Huai's carriage. If they got wet, he would probably cry.
The carriage had been ordered and a tent had been set up. At this moment, a thunderclap sounded in the sky and everyone couldn't help but speed up their actions.
"Changying, these are the things we need. Please move them into the tent first." Jiang Yuan said as he dragged out a few bundles from the carriage. They were bedding prepared in advance and clothes for several people.
Changying carried the things into the tent. Jiang Yuan took the oil paper, closed the door of the carriage, and stared at the oil paper from the outside.
Xie Yunxiao was also passing by the carriage with something in his arms. He turned his head and saw Jiang Yuan standing there. He stopped and looked at her, then smiled and said, "Second sister, that's a good idea."
Jiang Yuan looked at him hugging the quilt and said, "Hurry up, it will rain soon and you will cry."
Another flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the already dark sky, and then a loud thunder sounded.
The work on the third tent was almost finished when it started to rain heavily outside. The raindrops were so big that it hurt when they hit my body.
A dozen soldiers quickened their work to set up the tent. In just one minute, they were all soaked.
The three tents were next to each other. Xie Yunxiao asked them to change their wet clothes quickly. They would probably sleep outside today. It would be cold at night and they would get sick if they wore wet clothes.
All the things were moved into the tent, and the blankets were placed on the ground. Qu Ying sat on the blankets, panting, and listening to the heavy rain outside, "Oh my God, it was really dangerous."
Chunzhi poured hot water for Qu Ying and Jiang Yuan, "Girls, our thermos is not working well. The water is not hot anymore. Have a sip first."
Jiang Yuan pointed to the third tent opposite and said, "It's okay. That tent has no bottom cloth. General Xie is already making a fire. We can boil some hot water for drinking later."
"How are we going to sleep tonight?" Luzhu was a little worried. There were four tents, one of which was used for cooking and had no bottom.
The other three were used for sleeping, and were originally quite spacious.
There are only two beds left that can be used for sleeping, which is not enough for the men.
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, "It's okay. We'll hang a piece of cloth in the middle to separate the tents. Let my brothers and the others share one tent with us, and the other soldiers will have to squeeze into another one."
As she spoke, Jiang Yuan pointed to the cloth in the corner. Before she went out, she specifically asked Mrs. Liu for a piece of coarse linen, which was of no use.
"The girl is really smart." Several maids all smiled.
There were thunders outside and the sky had become completely dark, with only lightning occasionally lighting up the night sky.
Chunzhi and Siyun lit candles and used lanterns to illuminate the area. A fire had already been lit in the tent opposite.
Luzhu took out a bag of steamed buns, the pickles given by the villagers that day, and the buns they bought in the town that morning, and strung them together on skewers.
Jiang Yuan held an umbrella and carried the green bamboo to the opposite tent. They roasted them over the fire and everyone had a bite to eat.
The rain got heavier and the wind got a little weaker, but the temperature dropped and it was a bit cold. I could still withstand it a little after eating a full stomach.
Several girls were also sitting by the fire. The tent was full of people, roasting food around the fire.
All the food on the cart was consumed. This time there was nothing left. Yuan Mingyi took out some silver from his purse and gave it to the servant behind him. "Go to the town tomorrow and buy some more dry food."
Xie Yunxiao took a bite of a bun in his hand, with a map on his lap. "We still have about three days to go. If nothing unexpected happens, we can find a place to stay tonight."
"Well, in that case, then you should calculate the quantity carefully. It would be a waste to buy too much."
Xie Yunxiao looked up and smiled at him, "Master Yuan is worthy of being from the Ministry of Revenue. He is frugal."
Yuan Ming glared at him and said, "You said you had a place to live. Food is very precious. Don't be so confused."
"Yes, yes, I will teach you."
The two of them joked about it, and the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became much better. Xie Yunxiao just had this ability. It seemed that no matter what the situation was, it was not a big deal to him, and he would still be happy as usual.
After dinner, Zhou Qian and Lu Chuan pulled a rope in the tent, hung a cloth, and separated the tent into two parts, with them on one side and the girls on the other.
In this kind of environment, everyone slept under the covers and in their clothes. There was still thunder outside. Chunzhi seemed a little scared and moved towards Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan felt it and turned over and took Chunzhi in his arms, "Don't be afraid, go to sleep."
Chunzhi buried her head and hummed softly.
I don't know when the heavy rain started to subside, but judging by the sound of raindrops hitting the tent, it should be drizzling now.
The branches outside suddenly rustled, and Jiang Yuan sat up with a start, and Chunzhi, who was sleeping uneasily beside him, sat up too.
When Chunzhi sat up, Jiang Yuan covered her mouth, otherwise her scream would have been heard thousands of miles away.
In the darkness, Chunzhi blinked her eyes, unable to adapt to the darkness in front of her, but she was familiar with the smell of Jiang Yuan. Knowing that her girl was by her side, she quickly calmed down.
Patting Jiang Yuan's hand, the hand covering her mouth loosened, and Chunzhi lowered her voice, "What's wrong, girl?"
Jiang Yuan hissed, took out a dagger from the pillow and put it in Chunzhi's hand.
Something cold and hard was stuffed into her hand. She knew what it was as soon as she touched it. She immediately became alert and glanced blankly at the darkness around her.
Someone on the other side of the curtain seemed to have heard the movement here. There was the sound of footsteps, and the partition in the middle was lifted. "Second sister."
The voice was familiar and I knew it was Xie Yunxiao as soon as I heard it.
