Chapter 35 Old Yan is a road idiot
After walking for another hour, they finally saw the dim post station in the night.
Yan Er Er stopped immediately, and a group of people began to look for the official road and the small road, turned up, and walked a long way before choosing an open and flat place to settle down.
Walking back and forth for almost four hours, it was halfway through, and the whole village was exhausted.
There are those who are not particular about it, just roll up the broken list and fall asleep.
The old and the young in the family can’t do this. The straw mats or thin quilts are spread on the ground, and the children who are crazy during the day sleep peacefully.
Village Chief Luo took his son and grandson to find some firewood around them with torches, and lit three fire piles.
The frames are all removed, so that the livestock can relax.
The men endured their drowsiness and unconsciously approached Yan's house.
This is their first night living outside, the open-air environment is unavoidably uncomfortable, and they miss their home.
When people feel insecure, they will subconsciously approach the strong.
At this time, Yan Huaiwen was the strong man in their hearts.
Scholar, scholar and fame, it seems that with such an aura, he is omnipotent.
"Everyone is exhausted today. One person from each family will take turns to watch the night. The others should go to rest first. We will be on the road later tomorrow, and we will talk tomorrow morning if we have something to say." Yan Huaiwen said.
Yan Lao Er consciously follows others to arrange shifts.
When he came back from vigil, his wife took his daughter and eldest daughter to the upper bunk. The three of them moved some things and stuffed them around the four wheels, fixed the whole car, and then squeezed together and slept soundly.
The eldest nephew couldn't bear it and went to bed first, while his elder brother, in high spirits, was writing furiously on the small table he remodeled.
"Brother, why don't you go to sleep?" Yan Lao Er looked at the fire not far away, frowned, "I'll write tomorrow, my eyes are burnt out."
"Let's take a look." Yan Huaiwen handed over a few pieces of paper.
Yan Laoer saw it and wanted to die.
Such small characters are densely packed.
Besides, even if the characters are big, he still can’t read them all.
"My eyes are bad, I can't see clearly in the dark." He smoothly found a perfect excuse for himself.
oh!
Yan Huaiwen suddenly realized, no wonder the second brother never studies hard at night.
"I transcribed the situation of each family, including how many people there are, how old they are, men are divided into young and underage, children are divided into young children and immature children, old people are divided into acceptable and bad...
Tomorrow on the road, today's law cannot be followed. Except for the elderly, young children, and the sick and weak who are not good at walking, everyone else must take turns walking and taking turns riding.
Adults travel the longest, minors and women take second place, and old people take the second place.
Travel for three hours a day, half in the morning and half in the afternoon, and rest in the two hottest hours at noon.
Three meals a day.
Every night, one person from each family is tentatively assigned to be on duty at night. "
"Brother is a great talent!" Yan Laoer first praised, and then carefully pondered what his brother said.
It was said earlier that the big guys take turns walking in wheels, which is no problem, and she wants to go with her daughter!
Walking is good. It is good for exercising. It is not healthy to ride a car all the time.
He had no objections to the three meals a day and the night duty.
But walking for three hours a day, that is six hours, one minute in the morning and afternoon...
It doesn't feel long.
"Brother, isn't it a bit short to walk three hours a day? If we go on like this, when can we reach Guanzhou?"
The people in the village dragged their families away, but it was a bit slow.
But there is no way, women and children have poor physical strength, and it is rare to keep up without falling behind.
"For the time being, we will make adjustments when the weather is not so hot in the future and everyone gets used to it." Yan Huaiwen said.
"Brother, show me the map of where you are." Yan's second is glad that he remembered this term.
Yan's second child: "Wake up early tomorrow and watch it again, let me here first.
Brother, you let the big guy eat three meals a day, I have no objection, but the folks don’t have much rations at home, can it work? "
"I have also considered it, but if I don't eat, I am afraid that my body will not be able to support it. I can only eat more and eat less. After I leave the territory of Qishan Mansion, the situation should be better."
"Brother, I think so, just listen."
"you say."
"If we only walk along the official road, there will be few villages along the way, and it will be far away from the mountains and forests. It will be inconvenient for everyone to find water and food.
Now that the location of the nearby post station has been determined, why don’t we go straight according to the direction of the mileage map, even if we go a little off, we can find someone to ask for directions, as long as we don’t go into deep mountains or dense forests, we can always find the way. "
Yan Huaiwen pursed his lips, "God bless, you...can you turn around on weekdays?"
"No! I have a good sense of direction." Yan Laoer shook the mileage map and said, "Brother, trust me, when tomorrow dawns, I will study a fast and straight road for you, so we don't have to stay at the station all the time. They circle around and sneak around for fear of being discovered.”
"But let's say it first, I can see with my eyes during the day, don't look for me at night, you will be blind." Yan Laoer Chou said earlier.
He can't handle things with words alone. During the day, he has his wife and daughter who can help him get away with it.
Yan Huaiwen felt relieved.
It turns out that none of their brothers are perfect.
"God bless, my brother... I have a poor sense of direction. I'm fine in a familiar place, but if I'm in a strange place, I'll get lost."
Yan’s second child: …
So big brother, you take us on the official road, and you hide from the post station to go around in circles. Is it because you are a road idiot? !
Seeing the old Yan bowing his head in embarrassment, Yan's second child immediately realized that this was something that the eldest brother couldn't talk about.
"Isn't our brother just complementary? Big brother, don't worry, let me lead the way, and I will guarantee it."
"Hey! I'm not doing my job well as a brother. I don't know how severe your night blindness is. Huh? Are you still driving tonight?" Yan Huaiwen was puzzled.
Elder Yan didn’t even blush, and continued to make up: “My blindness is just a description, it’s not true that I can’t see at all, besides, there is still brother, you can show me the way, I will go wherever you point.
It won't have much impact, but the fine print on the books at night is really hard to read. "
…
The next morning, Yan Yu woke up amidst the noise.
The sky was bright and I had a good night's sleep.
Looking around, I saw that my mother and big sister were not there, and she was lying on her back.
She turned over, not in a hurry to get down, but looked down from a height.
Her father was teaching her elder brother how to drive, and she just said a few words over and over again. She listened for a while, and it was so funny.
Sambo has full voice control, and you need to know how to handle it, as long as you have a long mouth.
But in order to hide their secret, her father really racked his brains and worked hard.
The aunts, aunts, daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law of each family are all making meals.
They found a few big stones, built a simple stove, and only burned one pot. You have a bowl of batter, and I have a bowl of batter, and take turns spreading the pancakes.
Yan Yu rested her chin and stared intently.
He calculated in his mind how many cakes could be produced from a bowl of batter.
If only one pot is used, will the extra pots they have are useless?
Steaming steamed buns costs water, but steamed buns cost a lot. Compared with batter, which one is more cost-effective?
With so many people surrounding a pot, manpower is greatly wasted.
Although there is only a little time for cooking, if you can gather some firewood and grab a handful of grass, it is better than standing and waiting.
The third update will be delivered, and the 60 monthly ticket will be added~~o(*￣︶￣*)o
Fortunately, today is the last day of this month, and the next month will be counted again, haha~!
Ah Zhai worked so hard, how dare you think? Isn't it very very touching? (#^.^#)
