Chapter 46 One way to catch up

The next day, we bid farewell to Dr. Zhu, and the two went to pick up Xiao Wu.Before he arrived, he saw Xiao Wu in plain clothes waiting at the door from a distance.After a simple greeting, the three of them set off to continue walking west.

Not long after leaving the city, I saw a forest.Looking again, there is a red ribbon tied to a tree in the middle by the side.It seemed that Huang Ying had indeed left as agreed.Ke Lan glanced at Zhang Yier, she nodded knowingly, so Ke Lan walked into the forest.Although she knew that Huang Ying should have left, there was still a little bit of luck in her heart.After a while, Ke Lan came back with nothing, and shook his head at Zhang Yi'er.Zhang Yi'er also had a look of helplessness and disappointment, although everything was expected.Xiao Wu looked at the inexplicable two people with some doubts, not knowing where this song came from!So, with doubts in his eyes, he looked at Ke Lan with an expression of what are you doing.Ke Lan hurriedly walked up to Xiao Wu and explained the ins and outs to her, and also expressed his and Yi'er's worries and doubts.

"What?!" After hearing this, Xiao Wu yelled, "How could you agree to take her with you! How could you let her go on the road alone?"

Seeing Xiao Wu jumping up and down anxiously, Ke Lan knew that the worries about her before were unnecessary, she was still that Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, don't worry! We are too busy and confused! Let's hurry up and hope to catch up as soon as possible!" Ke Lan tried to persuade her to calm down!

"Why didn't you say it earlier, if you said it earlier, we should have set off last night!" Xiao Wu said impatiently.

"We only remembered it last night, and after listening to Aunt Huang's words, Xiao Ke and I are not sure if Miss Huang is really gone!" Zhang Yi'er also explained.

"Then why didn't you come out to confirm last night?!" Xiao Wu asked without thinking.

"So what if it's confirmed, you have the strength to go on the road overnight after working hard for the past few days!" Ke Lan was also a little anxious.For Grandma Xiaowu's funeral, weeping and guarding the spirit, I haven't closed my eyes for three days and two nights!

Then there was a silence!

"Let's go!" After Ke Lan finished speaking, he took Yi'er's hand and walked forward.

Xiao Wu hurriedly followed. "I'm sorry..." Xiao Wu's voice was as low as a mosquito!

"It's okay!" Ke Lan patted Xiao Wu's shoulder and continued walking.

It was already noon when the three of them arrived at Qingxi Town and found Qingxi Inn.The three of them casually ordered some meals at the inn, planning to have lunch before heading on their way.Although I don't have any hope of meeting Huang Ying here, I still have to ask the shopkeeper for news.While waiting for the food, Ke Lan went to the counter to ask the shopkeeper for news.

"Shopkeeper, can I ask you about someone?" Ke Lan asked politely.

"My lord, please tell me." The middle-aged shopkeeper seemed neither humble nor overbearing.

"I would like to ask, there hasn't been a girl surnamed Huang living in the shop these two days? Medium build, oval face..." Ke Lan tried to describe, "Should be wearing light yellow clothes."

The shopkeeper thought about it and shook his head!

Ke Lan took out some broken silver from his bosom, put it in front of the shopkeeper, and then said, "Shopkeeper, think about it carefully, I made an appointment with my sister to meet here yesterday, and I was delayed because of something at home. Late! Maybe she's gone!"

The shopkeeper looked at the silver, thought for a while, and said, "There is no Miss Huang waiting for someone, but another young master surnamed Huang checked out yesterday! He left a message before leaving."

"What message, maybe my sister deliberately wore men's clothing for the convenience of walking." Ke Lan asked anxiously.

"Dare to ask the son's surname?"

"My surname is Lan."

"That's probably it. Before leaving, Mr. Huang said that if a Mr. Lan came looking for someone, he would tell him that he would go ahead and settle down at the Qiaoxiang Inn in Xiangqiao Town."

After hearing the news he wanted, Ke Lan was so excited that he turned around and left without even saying thank you.But for the sake of the money, the shopkeeper stopped Ke Lan: "Young master Lan, stop! Lingmei also said that she will wait for you there for a day!"

"Thank you, thank you shopkeeper!" Ke Lan bowed.Just as I was about to leave, I thought of something and turned back and asked, "Shopkeeper, let me ask you again, when did Sister She leave, and how long does it take to get from here to Xiangqiao Town?"

"Lingmei probably left at noon yesterday. If you take a carriage, you can arrive at Xiangqiao in the evening. If you ride a horse, you can go an hour earlier."

Ke Lan looked at Yi'er and the others, and thought for a while that it was time to rent a carriage.So I gave the shopkeeper some errand money, and asked him to send someone to help rent a carriage.The shopkeeper took the money and happily told Xiao Er to go.

Ke Lan returned to her table, the food was ready, and she was waiting for her.

"Hurry up and eat, so we can hurry! I just asked about Huang Ying's whereabouts. If we hurry up, we might catch up with her tonight." Ke Lan took the lead in starting.

Sitting in the carriage, Ke Lan could finally thank her feet, and soon she fell asleep leaning on Yi'er.It wasn't until the door of Xiangqiao Inn that Zhang Yi'er was willing to wake her up.When Ke Lan came out of the carriage rubbing his eyes, he found that the sky had already darkened.Ke Lan hurriedly approached the inn to inquire about Huang Ying.But the answer he got was no. The shopkeeper said that there was neither a girl named Huang nor a son named Huang, and no one left a message for Mr. Lan.Ke Lan was confused, could it be that Qingxi's shopkeeper lied to her, it's unnecessary, there is no worry or hatred, it doesn't make sense!

"Brother Lan, what's the matter? Any news?" Xiao Wu asked with concern.

Ke Lan shook his head with a look of helplessness.

"Why is there no news, didn't you say you're waiting here?" As soon as there was no news, Xiao Wu became anxious again.

"See you're in a hurry again, let's stay here first, and then we'll see!" Ke Lan was also in a hurry, but she still had to persuade Xiao Wu, who made her promise that her grandma would take care of her.

The three asked for two rooms and stayed first.Of course, Yi'er still shares a room with Ke Lan, the two have gotten used to each other along the way.
