The old man stood on the carriage shaft, swept Chen Yuan and the three of them with a glance, and finally fixed his gaze on the car driver.
The coachman's face had turned white. He had been driving for over a decade and naturally knew that the old master sitting in this carriage was someone he couldn't afford to offend, but he didn't know what to say.
Lianhua hid behind Chen Yuan's back, gently pulling on Chen Yuan's sleeve and didn't dare to make a sound.
It was Chen Yuan who remained calm, thinking that no matter how the other party pursued it, he would have to speak up. He immediately clasped his fists and said: "This old gentleman, we were in a hurry to return because of an urgent matter, so we rushed and startled you, sir. We apologize to you."
The man who was driving the carriage also came to his senses and hastily stepped forward, bowing and saying: "Your Excellency, I assure you it was not intentional, please forgive me!"
The old man didn't say anything else and called Lü Fu over to ask: "How was the carriage damaged?"
Lv Fu had already inspected it and replied immediately upon inquiry: "The right side of the carriage must be replaced, estimated to cost fifty taels of silver."
Chen Yuan was quite discerning, although he had only been to the Song Dynasty for a short time. He knew that Lv Fu hadn't said much, and such red lacquer wooden carriage boards were originally very expensive. With intricate carvings on top, fifty taels of silver might not even be enough for the carriage shop to sell with some face.
Of course, the driver also knew that his whole face turned sour, fifty two, for a driver like him who drove both passengers and goods, it was an astronomical figure.
This situation is like what? It's just like a rickshaw crashing into a BMW on the street today. The rickshaw driver usually has no way out except to stand there and wait for instructions.
Nowadays taking a taxi is also like this, but he seems to have been particularly lucky today because he met an old man who was very easy to talk to.
The old man got off and took a look at the damaged part, then asked Lv Fu: "Can this car still go back?"
Lü Fu nodded: "Going home is no problem, it's just that the carriage is broken like this, and letting others see it will damage your reputation. It would be better if I go back now to rush a new horse-drawn carriage."
The old man shook his head: "Forget it, let's go."
Lü Fu was taken aback, and the carriage driver also froze in shock, unable to believe this outcome. In his mind, he thought that the other party would definitely make him pay a price, and even if they couldn't squeeze any silver out of him, a beating was unavoidable.
The old man turned over and got on the carriage. The driver knelt down on the ground, knocked his head heavily: "Thank you, sir, for your generosity! You will surely live to be a hundred years old!"
The old man got into the car, and Lü Fu, who was driving, lightly kicked the gear: "Get going! Today we met our old master, consider yourself lucky, kid. Next time drive slower!"
The cart handle retreated to one side in a fluster, afraid of blocking the way of this kind old gentleman.
Chen Yuan watched as the horse carriage departed and also put down a stone in his heart, standing by the side of the road with his fists clasped together saying: "The great master has a kind heart, he will surely have more children!"
Just as he finished speaking, the old man lifted the car curtain and looked at Chen Yuan: "What did you say?"
Chen Yuanwei smiled and said: "The little ones say that since Master is so kind-hearted, he will surely have more children."
The old man smiled: "How did you know I came for offspring?"
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "I saw the servant running towards where Subhuti was, so I naturally knew. But on his lips, he said: 'Coming to the temple to seek Buddha is no more than seeking marriage, seeking official career, seeking wealth, seeking peace of mind, seeking descendants and a few other things. You, sir, must have a happy family, a smooth official career, these three things are certainly not what you need to seek.'"
Chen Yuan took a look at the old man's face and saw a hint of a smile, he knew his guess was correct. He continued to say: "Sir, you have a broad mind and won't do anything that would bring shame, your heart is already at peace, so I dare to conclude that you are here seeking descendants."
The old man really laughed: "Haha, what's your name?"
Chen Yuan replied: "The humble Chen Shimei pays his respects to your lordship."
The old man smiled and dropped the carriage curtain, and the horse-drawn vehicle quickly drove out of Chen Yuan's sight. The driver only got up from the ground at this time, wiping away a head of sweat that he didn't know when it came out, and took a long breath: "Ah, I was scared to death."
Chen Yuan walked forward and took a look at his carriage: "Big brother, this carriage also needs repair, right?"
The man who was driving the cart seemed not to mind that his cart had been damaged, and a smile appeared on his face: "My cart is simple, as long as the horse is fine, I can just nail a few wooden boards together and it will be fixed. But if they really make me pay for their cart, I won't be able to afford it even after working for three years."
Chen Yuan patted the somewhat scattered car plate: "If you can't afford to compensate, then don't compensate. Can he beat someone up just because of a car?"
"Take a beating? A beating is nothing! I had a brother who was driving and crashed into someone's car, just because he injured the mistress's dog inside, and he was locked up in prison for ten whole years!"
Chen Yuan's head jerked up in surprise: "No way! Even if he crashed into the Emperor, it wouldn't be this bad, would it?"
The mood of rushing to catch the bus is great at this time, and I also came over to pat the wooden board: "Your Majesty? If you hit Your Majesty, just wait for death! Come on, this piece can still be sat, we two sit tight, I'll drive slowly, and send you into the city without any problem."
Sit tight? This method is good.
Chen Yuan entered the city and suddenly remembered that he still had one thing to do, which was what Bai Yutang had entrusted him with, to go see Bao Zheng interrogate Yan Chaoshan.
It's too late now, so let's just not look into it anymore. Anyway, the outcome of this matter shouldn't be much different. Yan Chaoshan will shout injustice, and Bao Zheng will also plead for him. The real culprit seems to be Miss's cousin.
Not going today, when I'm in a good mood, I want to pick up girls. First, let's scatter the colors and go see him tomorrow when I have time.
Chen Yuan and Lian Hua got off the carriage together, but after getting off, Lian Hua quickly walked into the inn alone.
The shopkeeper had been waiting there for a long time and saw Liang Hua coming in, opening his mouth to scold: "This dead girl, where did she run off to early this morning?"
Today, there seem to be more guests in the inn than usual, and surprisingly, two tables of guests are having dinner. The boss is so busy that he can't handle it alone, and on top of that, he's worried about Linghua, so his temper has gotten a bit worse.
The lotus flower didn't make a sound, tied up her apron and immediately turned around to run towards the kitchen: "I'm going to cook."
The shopkeeper followed behind, continuing to scold: "Hey, say something! Where did you go? Can't I take care of it or what?"
The rhododendron quickly flashed into the kitchen, and Chen Yuan followed behind, hastily pulling the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, calm down, wait for the guests to leave before teaching her a lesson, don't delay the guests."
The shopkeeper didn't really want to chase after Linghua and beat her, he just felt that she ignored him and rushed into the house, making him lose face as a father.
He had no idea that at this time, Liang Hua's heart was a mess, pretending to be Chen Yuan, and there was no place for him as his father.
