After rebirth, I became a national teacher

Hui'an had already been waiting on the main road in his carriage.

Chen Qingzhu took Rong Niang on the carriage, and the three of them drove all the way to the East City of Nandu.

Arriving outside the carriage and horse market in East City, Chen Qingzhu and Rong Niang got off the carriage wearing veil hats.

"Go back and be careful on the road."

She spoke to Hui'an in a gentle voice.

Hui'an looked at the figure in front of him, and a deep feeling of attachment and reluctance welled up in his heart.

"Master and Miss, please take care on your journey!"

After a pause, he couldn't help but add, "If you're not used to being outside, come back earlier!"

Chen Qingzhu slightly curved her lips:

"it is good."

"Goodbye, Aunt Hui'an." Rong Niang waved goodbye to her sweetly.

After Hui'an left, Chen Qingzhu carried the luggage in one hand and walked into the carriage and horse market holding Rong Niang's hand with the other.

She planned to rent a carriage and go to Wuhu City in the south first, rest at the post station for a night, and then continue south to Gan Province.

She had to practice on the road, so naturally she couldn't drive herself.

Having a fixed driver would easily reveal one's whereabouts and purpose.

The best way to keep it secret is to rent a car along the way, keep changing cars, and then buy a horse when you go to look for jade mines.

This is a large market in Dongcheng that specializes in renting and selling carriages and horses. There are not only many shops, but also many individual vendors leading carriages and horses alone.

Even in winter, you can smell a strong smell of horse manure as soon as you enter.

Rong Niang had never been to such a place before. She covered her nose with her veil, but looked around curiously.

Since he was not in such a hurry, Chen Qingzhu let her take a closer look at the various scenes in the market and even asked about the prices of several carriages.

Among them were those old and small carts, pulled by only a horse with a messy-looking coat.

If the car and horse are slightly better, the price will be more than twice as high.

Those large and luxurious carriages pulled by two horses cost five times as much as a single-horse carriage.

The driver's dress style also improved with the grade of the carriage.

Seeing the drivers with frostbite on their faces or hands, Rong Niang seemed a little uncomfortable and would subconsciously squeeze Chen Qingzhu's hand every time.

"Big sister, are you looking for a car? Our cars are spacious, comfortable and cheap. Come and take a look at ours!"

A middle-aged woman with a bun came up to Chen Qingzhu and spoke enthusiastically.

Chen Qingzhu looked the man up and down through the veil, with an interested smile on his face:

"Okay."

The monks are sensitive to the gazes of others.

Not long after she entered the carriage and horse market, she noticed that the woman and another man were staring at her with malicious eyes. Later, she walked to a shop further inside to ask about the price, and the woman followed her for a while.

Now that he took the initiative to talk to her, it was obvious that he had already chosen her as his target.

"Are you from Nandu? Why are you here alone with your child looking for a car?"

"No, I came to Nandu to visit relatives."

Chen Qingzhu said lightly.

She had seen so many things in her past and present lives, so how could she not see what these people were planning?

Since these people were so blind as to find her, she might as well get rid of them.

Although the merits may not be too much, there is no reason to refuse something that is delivered to your door.

"Oh, these relatives are really mean. Why did they let you come to the horse market alone to look for a car? You are unfamiliar with the place and it is easy to be ripped off by the price!"

"They had something else to do, so they dropped us off at the entrance of the Horse and Carriage Market and left."

After confirming that Chen Qingzhu was alone with her child, the woman's smile became more earnest.

They chatted all the way and were led to a carriage. The driver was an honest-looking old man with some gray hair.

The car was the widest among single-passenger cars. Although it looked old on the outside, it was clean and tidy on the inside. It was covered with a thick mattress and there was a small table with a burning incense stick. The faint fragrance made it look very comfortable.

In terms of price, it is 40% cheaper than products of the same grade.

"Your car is really good. Why is it so much cheaper than others?"

Chen Qingzhu asked in confusion.

The woman said sincerely:

"To be honest, I just overheard that you were going to Wucheng in the south, and our car happened to be entrusted to take some small things there, so we were thinking of picking up another customer while we were there."

"I see. Then take your car."

The woman's eyes flashed with satisfaction as she saw her evil plan succeed:

"Big sister, please get in the car!"

Chen Qingzhu took Rong Niang on the carriage and drove all the way to the south city gate.

Not long after leaving the city gate, the smell of incense in the car changed slightly.

Rong Niang, who was originally looking around the city curiously, rubbed her eyes sleepily:

"Mom, I feel a little sleepy."

Chen Qingzhu said softly:

"I got up early this morning and I'm a little sleepy. Let's sleep together for a while."

After hearing this, Rong Niang closed her eyes with peace of mind.

Chen Qingzhu raised his finger slightly, and the hollow jar containing the incense on the table automatically floated up, passed over the curtain and came out of the car. Under the cold wind, the incense burned rapidly, and soon only a pool of ashes was left.

Chen Qingzhu put the jar back on the table, paid some attention to the movements outside, and then started practicing.

After about half an hour, the carriage obviously deviated from the main road and began to shake.

Chen Qingzhu opened his eyes and found that the carriage had indeed left the official road and went to a small fork road.

After walking for about two more quarters of an hour, the carriage stopped.

Chen Qingzhu opened the curtain a little and saw a tiled house at the foot of a small hill not far away.

The driver took up the carriage bell and rang it.

Not long after, a tall, strong, bearded man came out of the tile-roofed house.

At this point, Chen Qingzhu was sure that he had reached his destination.

These people chose a good place, close to the main road, which was convenient for transportation and not too conspicuous.

The bearded man greeted:

"Old Zhou, there's more goods!"

The old driver's cheerful voice came:

"We made a good fortune today, both mother and daughter! The mother is a top-notch item just by looking at her figure! The younger one is eight or nine years old, both of them are well dressed, and they have a lot of luggage!"

"Hey, that's really lucky, let me see it!"

As he said that, the man walked forward eagerly and opened the car door.
