Of course she didn't know, and she didn't inherit the original owner's memory.

The children's illness can't be delayed, and there is no rhinoceros town, so go to another town: "Dadao, do you know if there are any open pharmacies in the nearby town?"

Chen Dadao said: "The town must be closed. If Madam is really anxious to see a doctor, she has to go to the capital. There is one in the capital. My uncle broke his leg during Chinese New Year last year, so he went to the capital to see a doctor."

Qiao Wei pondered for a moment: "Is it far from here to the capital?"

Chen Dadao thought for a while: "Probably... thirty or forty miles away."

Qiao Wei frowned: "So far?"

Chen Dadao looked around, but he didn't see Qiao Wei's carriage, so he stared at him: "You didn't come here just now, did you?"

Qiao Wei didn't speak.

Chen Dadao was stunned, did he really come here? It's a miracle that a woman with two children didn't die of exhaustion on the road.

However, it is too far to go to the capital, and the wife will definitely not be able to walk with the child.

Qiao Wei also thought of this question: "Da Dao, can the carriage dealers in the town still rent carriages?"

Chen Dadao shook his head: "The door is also closed."

The whole street was closed for business, and only these homeless punks wandered the streets in the middle of the night.

Chen Dadao glanced at Qiao Wei, hesitant to speak.

Qiao Wei's fingers tightened: "Can you help me find some hot water to drink?"

This is still possible, Chen Dadao took Qiao Wei to the residence of himself and his brothers - a small courtyard with two entrances. In the past, there was no woman to clean up the mess. Chen Dadao smiled embarrassingly, and while letting the brothers clean up, he boiled a pot of hot water for Qiao Wei.

Qiao Wei drank a glass by herself first, and she didn't find anything wrong, so she fed some to Jing Yun and Wang Shu.

After drinking the water, Qiao Wei stood up and said goodbye.

Chen Dadao looked at her thin figure in the cold wind, feeling a little bit of unbearable feeling in his heart: "Carriage...there are not no carriages."

Half an hour later, Chen Dadao stood in front of the stables in the backyard. There was a brother in the gang who had a close relationship with him, named Huzi.

Hu Zi glared and said: "Brother Dao, are you crazy? You actually moved Da Jin's carriage? Da Jin will strip you if he finds out!"

Chen Dadao carefully pulled the horse out and tied it to the cart with a rope: "Just don't let him know? He is still in prison. When he is released from prison, his wife has already returned. If you don't tell me, I won't tell you." , no one knows."

Huzi opened his mouth: "But..."

Chen Dadao patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, that's the deal."

Chen Dadao quietly opened the back door, pulled the carriage out, found Qiao Wei who was waiting for him in the alley, and whispered: "Madam, go to the end of Daxing Street and turn right to the official road, and then go north and you will see the capital city Yes. But ma'am, can you drive?"

This stopped Qiao Wei, she had never even touched a horse in her previous life, let alone drove a carriage.

"Can you find a coachman in the town?" Qiao Wei asked.

Chen Dadao scratched his head: "You can find it, but it's the New Year's Eve, working in the middle of the night, and the price is..."

Qiao Wei said without thinking: "One tael of silver a day, I will cover all the board and lodging."

"How about hiring me? I only charge half a tael."

A familiar voice sounded behind her, Qiao Wei turned her head and saw Luo Yongnian walked into the alley at some point, leaning against the wall on one side, with his hands folded in front of his chest, looking at her angrily.

Qiao Wei was slightly taken aback: "Yongnian, why are you here?"

Luo Yongnian snorted angrily: "If I don't come, you plan to go to Beijing alone, right? Don't tell us about such a big incident, how dangerous it is to walk alone with a child at night!"

Luo Yongnian walked over, spread his palms, and revealed a jade hairpin, "Fortunately, I didn't fall asleep. When I heard some movement in Shuanzi's house, I thought it was a thief at first, so I ran over and found your hairpin. Is it yours?"

Qiao Wei touched the bun, but missed her hairpin: "It's mine."

Luo Yongnian put the hairpin back on Qiao Wei's head, Qiao Wei's hand to get the hairpin was empty, and he heard him say: "I wanted to return it to you tomorrow, but I was afraid that something happened to you, so I went to see you." I went to look for you on the mountain, but none of you were there, so I came to the town. Don’t do this in the future, if you have anything to tell us, Jing Yun and Wang Shu are also my nephews, and I am very anxious when they are sick!"

It's not that Qiao Wei didn't tell them on purpose, it's just that she has been here alone for so many years, and she is used to solving it by herself, so she doesn't want to and dare not rely too much on others.

Seeing Luo Yongnian blowing his beard and staring, Qiao Wei smiled slightly: "Okay."

The two bid farewell to Chen Dadao, and stepped into the carriage to the capital. The carriage was not big, but there was a simple couch, just enough for the children to lie on their backs.

While driving the car, Luo Yongnian asked Chen Dadao: "Sister, how do you know people from the Qinglong Gang?"

Qiao Wei spread out the cotton cloth and covered the children: "It's a long story, do you know them?"

"There have been fights before."

"Who's winning?"

"Of course it's me!"

"Oh." She pretended to believe the logic of the one who wins and runs to the capital, and the one who loses dominates the town.

Qiao Wei planned to go to the capital one day a few years ago, to appreciate the elegance of the ancient imperial capital, and to take the two little guys to eat some delicacies in the capital. The plan could not keep up with the changes, but now they came early, but no one was in the mood to go out wandered off.

The sky is gradually getting brighter, and the sky is like a light gray tulle, which is lifted little by little, and the purple air is coming from the east.

The two entered the city smoothly.

"The largest pharmacy in Beijing is Ganoderma lucidum, and it has the widest distribution. There is one in almost every street, and there is also the place where I studied art, but that is too far away. Let's go to Lingzhitang on Nanxi 1st Street. Every year on New Year's Eve, other The pharmacies will be closed, only the Ganoderma lucidum hall is open."

Qiao Wei lifted the curtain. Because of New Year's Eve, the row upon row of shops was a bit deserted, most of them were closed, and only a few were open, but compared to the deserted town, it was already considered lively.

The carriage arrived at Nanxi 1st Street very quickly. Unlike the deserted ones seen before, this place was almost overcrowded, all of them came to the Ganoderma Lucidum Hall to seek medical treatment.

It's not surprising when you think about it. Most pharmacies are closed, but diseases will not stop knocking on the door just because of the Chinese New Year.

Qiao Wei took the children to line up, and Luo Yongnian went to a nearby bun shop to buy some buns.

Jing Yun and Wang Shu had a severe fever, and they vomited as soon as they ate.

Qiao Wei was so distressed that she couldn't eat.

"Eat something anyway." Luo Yongnian persuaded.

Qiao Wei shook her head: "I'll eat later after watching, you go to the carriage to rest for a while."

In ancient times, there was no parking lot, and the carriage was unguarded, so it was easy to be stolen. With her current economic level, she could not afford to pay for a carriage.

Luo Yongnian went obediently.

Qiao Wei stayed and continued to line up. I don't know how long it took, until it was three poles into the sun, and finally it was her turn.

But before she could sit down, a woman jumped in line.
