The pork butcher is smoother than a pig butcher!

Chapter 276 The incident happened
People's joys and sorrows are not the same.

Just like the Border Town General's Mansion at this time.

The garrison commander of Jinzhou Pass was very responsible.

After receiving Zhao Muyun's urgent order, he ordered the guards of the city to patrol for twelve hours a day.

All pedestrians crossing the Jinzhou Pass will be checked at both the east and west gates.

Verify the road permit.

Then compare it with the portrait in your hand.

They didn't even spare little girls as young as seven or eight.

Despite such a rigorous inspection, the General's daughter and her maid were still not discovered.

After seeing off the last refugee, the garrison commander of Jinzhou Pass had no choice but to select the most articulate of his personal guards and send him on horseback to reply to the general.

In fact, Zhao Muyun had already realized what was going on.

His daughter is bold, but definitely not stupid.

He knew that he would be discovered within six hours of leaving the general's residence.

How could the letter be so honest, even saying that he would dress up as a woman and mingle among those teenagers!
Every single sentence is a trap.

They wanted to mislead her parents into looking among those who had gone to Guanzhong in 70,000.

Delay time!
She's just stalling for time!
She might be hiding in one of the first or second batches of military dependents' carriages or oxcarts, and has already run far away.

But before he could react, the military order he gave to Jinzhou Pass was to search for people among the refugees and the majority of the young men.

Therefore, he started looking for the wrong people from the very beginning.

as predicted.

At this moment, Zhao Muyun listened calmly to the careful reply from the personal guard of the Jinzhou Pass garrison commander.

The other person's voice trembled slightly, but they still managed to describe the thoroughness of the checks they underwent when they passed through customs, despite the pressure.

Having confirmed his suspicions, Zhao Muyun did not make things difficult for the other party.

He waited until the other person finished speaking before asking:
"You've checked everyone on the road, so are you checking the military dependents in the horse-drawn carriages and oxcarts in the same way?"

The soldier froze for a few moments, his face instantly turning stiff.

"In reply to General, since all those riding in the carriage are military dependents, as long as the servants driving the carriage show their master's guard register, the ladies and gentlemen do not need to get out of the carriage."

His voice grew quieter.

They also understood why, despite having so many people guarding the area, they still hadn't found anyone.

It turns out that this young lady had already run away!

Fortunately, the general did not blame him and waved his hand to let the steward take him down to eat.

Zhao Muyun returned to the backyard and shared his guesses and the results of the inspection at Jinzhou Pass with Jiang.

Jiang was so angry she laughed:
"No wonder they sent out over two hundred people and still couldn't find her! That brat must be hiding in someone's carriage! How can she be so capable? Who did she take after to have this personality?"

Zhao Muyun touched his nose and comforted his wife, saying:
"Since she dared to get into someone's car, she must know them well. Having a car means she won't suffer much, and they'll probably treat her like a VIP."

"Heh! What family would be so reckless? Even acquaintances wouldn't let a young lady of marriageable age act so recklessly. Aren't they afraid that if Your Excellency were to blame them, it would affect their family's future?"

Indeed, as Lady Jiang, the wife of the Marquis, said.

No one who knows her daughter would ever take her away without informing the couple.

What if this happened to a five-year-old child?
That makes perfect sense!
Because the refugees from Huaiqing Prefecture disrupted the lives of the local people, Lady Jiang, the wife of the Marquis, decided to stay in the border town after opening the Zuixiangju restaurant.

There are still some powerful and influential families in Huaiqing Prefecture, and her status is not the highest.

But in the border town.

She is absolutely the first.

Being able to see her husband frequently, and having many wives of military commanders come to flatter her every day, life couldn't be better.

Unfortunately, Zhao Ran was not the kind of young lady who could settle down to embroidering in the backyard.

She is a regular customer of Ganweixian and Zuixiangju restaurants.

After enjoying her meal, she would stroll through the streets and alleys of the border town. But the border town was just a tiny city; after three to five days, the novelty wore off, and she found it boring.

In the end, somehow, he became a regular at No. 36 Courtyard.

Fatty and Yuanyuan, one is a naive and innocent child, the other is adorable.

She gets along very well with the two children.

Gan Minglan's heroic feat of leading the vanguard battalion on a westward expedition almost blinded her with her idol-like brilliance.

My admiration for you is like a surging, muddy river.

Their words were often full of flattery.

He considers his mother to be the best fat boy in the world, and regards this aunt as a confidante.

Their friendship has grown into a towering edifice.

However, once the date for the Zuo family to move to the Seven Guards of Kansai, more than 3,000 li away, was set...

Zhao Ran hugged the fat boy and cried her heart out.

"Waaah, you'll make lots of new friends when you go to Guansi Qiwei, and you'll definitely forget about me by then."

"Waaaaah, Zizai, I can't bear to part with you! Where will I find you now that you're gone?"

Fatty was also at his wit's end from crying. After thinking for a while, he tentatively suggested:
"Auntie, would you like to come with me to my new house and let me know where it is? Once you know where my house is, we can visit each other more often!"

The other person desperately suppressed a laugh and said resentfully:

"But my mother won't let me go out. She keeps me locked up at home every day embroidering handkerchiefs. What should I do?"

The little guy thought for a moment:

"Then I won't tell your mother! Auntie, you can hide in our car. Our car is really big."

"Okay, okay! Kid, how come you're so smart? I never thought you could do that. Well, we agree you can't tell anyone else!"

"I am a gentleman, and a gentleman's word is as good as gold!"

"."

That's how it happened.

The child treated this as a secret agreement made with a good friend.

Along the way, he frequently urged his grandmother to get out of the car for some fresh air, while he helped his sister in the car.

In reality, it was just to make it convenient for Zhao Ran and her servant to go out to use the restroom or something.

Thanks to the flatbreads prepared by the master and servant before they left, and the dried meat prepared by Gan's parents for their eldest grandson, they have managed to survive to this day.

We're almost at Heping Pass.

The work that Gan Mingfu and Zuo Wenkang were doing had finally come to an end.

The two boarded the camel cart, wanting to get intimate with their son (eldest nephew) and daughter (niece).

result.

Before I even boarded the train, two grown men emerged from the inner compartment.

Startled, Zuo Wenkang and Gan Mingfu stumbled and nearly tripped.

After half a cup of tea.

The surrounding military dependents all heard a deafening cry coming from the Zuo family's camel cart:

"Aww, Daddy, Daddy, I made a mistake!"

The usually gentle and refined scholar, Zuo Xiucai, spoke with a hint of exasperation in his voice:
"Are you trying to drive me crazy so you can get yourself a new stepfather?"

“Wow wow wow”

Then came another baby's cry; just from the sound, you could tell the baby was very healthy.

That voice is so loud!

envy!

Perhaps the child was crying too pitifully, or perhaps the father felt sorry for the youngest, because the scolding quickly subsided.
