Chapter 11553
"Fifth brother, it's okay, it's okay. Let's just focus on the feast today and not waste any time." Yang Huaming was the first one to wave his hand with a smile, and there was no negative emotion in his tone.
Yang Yongzhi and Yang Yongqing also nodded in unison, "Uncle Wu, take a break. It won't be too late for us to set off after you have rested."
Yang Ruoqing brought a bowl of tea to Yang Huazhou, "Fifth Uncle, have some tea."
"Okay." Yang Huazhou took the tea, sat down on the stool next to him, and started drinking it without caring whether the tea was hot or not.
His journey was truly a torment!
Yang Ruoqing came to another place and listened to Luo Fengtang talking about the scene when he met Yang Huazhou before.
"It was a big deal. We rented 18 carriages from the county town's carriage and horse shop to come to the village to pick up people."
"Ten carriages are heading to our Changping Village, and eight are heading to Jiangjia Village. The one heading to our village is led by my fifth uncle, and the one heading to Jiangjia Village is led by Jiang Guiling's second brother."
"We had only walked two or three miles out of the county when the wheel of a horse-drawn carriage broke. Later, several horses broke down one after another. The carriage shops along the official road had already replaced several horses. When we arrived at Qingshui Town, another problem occurred."
"Uncle Wu considered that the Jiang family was his mother's family and he couldn't neglect them, so he put together the carriages and horses he had and made eight intact carriages for Jiang Guiling's second brother to take to Jiangjia Village to pick up relatives and friends. He stayed with the remaining 8 carriages. However, some of the horses had diarrhea and couldn't move on the road, and some of the carriages had problems. Uncle Wu left them at the carriage shop in Qingshui Town to repair them."
"But today the carriage and horse company has received an order, and all the carriages and horses have been transferred. Uncle Wu is stuck there and has to wait for the second brother of the Jiang family to send the relatives of the Jiang family to the county town and then come back to Qingshui Town to pick up our Yang family."
After listening to Luo Fengtang's retelling, Yang Ruoqing felt overwhelmed.
Jiang Guiling and Dabao were rich and spent a lot of money to hire a horse-drawn carriage to pick up their relatives from the village to go to the county town for a drink. However, the couple knew nothing about horses, and when they rented a carriage from a carriage shop in the county town, they were cheated by the people in the shop and were forced to use a sick horse as a substitute!
"You brought a horse from home before, is that not enough?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Luo Fengtang said: "It's not enough, so I came back to discuss with you. If it really doesn't work, we should get our own carriage team out. We can't have so many people in the Yang family go to the county town in two groups. We must arrive in the same group."
"As for waiting for the Jiang family's carriage to come back to pick you up, that's even more unrealistic. It's already afternoon."
"Well, that's the only way. Have you told Uncle Wu about this?"
"I have already discussed this with Uncle Wu, and he has accepted my proposal."
"Okay then. I'll go tell my father, my fourth uncle and my third brother, and ask them to get ready to drive the carriage."
The third wife had a carriage, the second wife also had one, and the Luo family had several.
In fact, there was no need for Jiang Guiling and her friends to rent a carriage from the coachman's shop in the county town. The old Yang family had all the means of transportation to the county town.
It was Jiang Guiling and Dabao who wanted to play it high-end and do it all. Look, now something has gone wrong and someone has to take the blame.
Yang Ruoqing's understanding of this matter is: it is like when people in modern society get married, they hire a wedding company to buy a nice car for the wedding.
Originally, they wanted to show off and pretend, but it turned out that most of the so-called luxury cars of the wedding company were modified accident cars, second-hand cars, and cars that were about to be scrapped. They often broke down before they had even run a short distance.
As a result, the marriage was delayed, and the guests had to find new means of transportation themselves. After that, the stranded or stalled cars were left there, waiting to be dealt with... Soon, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang informed everyone of the matter.
Yang Huazhong, Yang Huaming and the others had also guessed what the problem was. They all estimated how Yang Huazhou and Bao Suyun felt, so they didn't say anything discouraging and even acted happily as they prepared the carriage.
Yang Huazhou felt very uncomfortable when he saw this scene.
He hurriedly took the time to go home to wash his face and go to the toilet, and Bao Suyun followed him.
"Old Five, what's going on? Didn't we agree before that everyone would ride in our motorcade? Why do we need everyone to drive out their own carriages now?"
At this moment, there was no one else around except Bao Suyun, so Yang Huazhou didn't need to hide anything.
The smile on his face disappeared in an instant, his face was gloomy and his tone was not good, "I was saying that Dabao and Guiling don't know how to do things. They want to play big, but they don't play well. They make a lot of mistakes, which is embarrassing, causing chaos and delaying things!"
When Bao Suyun heard this, her face changed.
"His father, please don't say that. The children mean well. Guiling has said before that many of her relatives and friends on her mother's side have never ridden in a carriage in their lives..."
"If she wants to pretend to be generous and let her family ride in carriages, then she should pick some good horses and carriages!" Yang Huazhou interrupted Bao Suyun. "These 18 horses, what do you think are good horses? Most of them are old and sick horses from the horse and carriage shops."
"The horse and carriage company is offering discounts on rentals and free chariot drivers."
"They are unable to make ends meet from raising this old and sick horse, so they want to rent it out to make some money before disposing of it!"
"Dabao and Guiling didn't understand the situation clearly, and they thought they had picked up a bargain and could still show off. Look, the 18 horses just left Wanghai County, and they started to get sick one after another! Now there are three or five horses that have fallen down in Qingshui Town Coach and Horse Shop. I have to pay the foster fees to the people at Qingshui Town Coach and Horse Shop. When I return to the county, I have to negotiate with the coach and horse shop in the county to have them take those sick horses back to the county. Afterwards, who will compensate for those sick horses? I have to continue arguing!"
After hearing these words, Bao Suyun was stunned.
"Hey, that's what I said. Can't we just hold the banquet at home? Why do we have to transfer people to the county town? It will be so troublesome to go back and forth!"
"Alright, alright, now the banquet has been arranged and things have come to this, there's no point in talking about that anymore!" Yang Huazhou became more annoyed when he heard Bao Suyun's murmurs.
"I'm afraid the money I spent this time on will have to be multiplied several times. Let's be patient and hold the grandson's first birthday party. I'll close the door and teach them a lesson. They are so incompetent!"
After an incense stick of time, the carriages of the Luo family, the third branch, and the second branch were all harnessed.
Everyone got on the bus in a very orderly manner and happily set off for Wanghai County.
As for the carriages stranded at the Qingshui Town Carriage Shop, Yang Huazhou did not take them away. The horses were all sick, so Yang Huazhou only took the healthy ones back to the county town. The sick ones were left at the Qingshui Town Carriage Shop, waiting for someone from the county town to be sent to deal with them.
Yang Huazhou didn't dare to deal with it, because if he did, he would be blamed for it.
