Chapter 53: Encounter_1
The wedding procession hurried along the road, and after a while, they had reached the main road leading to Guo Village. Zhang Xiaolong looked at the sky and said, "There's still plenty of daylight, and we've covered more than half of the journey. I reckon we won't have any problems reaching Guo Village. Let's take a short break now, so we can push on with full force later."
Other than Zhang Xiaolong, Zhang Xiaohua, Liu Qian, and Liu Yueyue, everyone else in the group was walking. Not to mention the sedan chair bearers who had been carrying people, even the musicians, who carried several pounds of instruments, were extremely exhausted from keeping up with the procession. When they heard the word "break", they immediately went to the side of the road and sat on the grass, drinking water from their gourds or leather pouches to quench their thirst.
